May The Best Man Win: Part 2
In a final attempt at destroying our heroes, the villainous Heat Wave sets a bomb in The Central City Stadium!

Heat Wave: Ok boys! You know the drill! One shot each, no more than that. With this, you will win the game for sure.

X: Huh, he would have a promising career in marketing if he wasn't a villain.

Flash: Really. But something doesn't add up.

X: What do you mean?

Flash: Heat Wave is muscle, not brains. He couldn't have created the steroid, someone else did.

X: So let's take him in and ask who made it.

Flash: I like that plan, but we need to wait for the right time to strike.

You and Flash watched in the shadows as Heat Wave sold the steroid.

As the team injected the steroid into themselves, their eyes turned red and their bodies grew slightly.

X: God....they're monsters.

Flash: Yeah, who could have created this stuff?

Heat Wave turned to one of the thugs.

Heat Wave: Did we get payment?

Thug: Yes sir, came into the offshore account.

Heat Wave: Hehe good.

Flash: This is our chance!

You both lunged at the group, Flash using his speed to dispatch the thugs, as you subdued the team.

Heat Wave stood baffled as you two stood in front of him.

Heat Wave: Well, if it isn't the red ass! Who's the wannabe Hercules?

X: My name is X, and you're done Heat Wave, this drug ring is shutdown.

Heat Wave: Hehe you think I would sell this stuff at the biggest game in Central City and not have a backup plan?

Heat Wave pulled a switch from his waist, and pressed it.

When Heat Wave pressed the button, the team began to mutate.

Heat Wave: You know, the funny thing about this stuff is that if you find yourself cornered, you can press this magic button and it turns everyone who took it into freakin animals!

The team let out primal roars as they turned into monsters.

Heat Wave: Later assholes!

Heat Wave ran out of the locker room.

X: Shit! He's getting away!

Flash: Go after him! I will deal with these guys!

You ran after Heat Wave, who ran into the stadium passageway.

As Heat Wave pushed civilians away, he came to the concession stand.

Heat Wave shot a bolt of flame at the stand, trapping the people working there inside.

Heat Wave: Chase me or be a hero! Your choice!

You began to run after Heat Wave, but the pleas for help from the trapped civilians made you jump into the fire.

You summoned a shield, and slammed it into the ground, the shockwave extinguishing the flames.

After making sure that the civilians were safe, you continued your chase after Heat Wave.

When you came to the stadium seating, you saw Heat Wave running through the field below.

You jumped into the air, and landed your feet on Heat Wave's back.

Before you could deliver the knockout blow, Heat Wave turned around and held another switch.

X: Another magic switche?

Heat Wave: Yeah asshole! But this one sets off a set of incendiary bombs in the entire stadium! It was my idea!

X: Bombs!?

Heat Wave: Haha Yeah! Incendiary! Fire! When I press this button, this whole stadium goes up in flames! With everyone in it! Unless you let me go!

X: Rox, what do I do?!

Rox: The bombs are to far away! And Flash is still dealing with the team! The only way to defuse the bombs is to get the detonator out of range!

X: Out of range?

You thought for a moment, and grabbed Heat Wave.

Heat Wave: What are you doing!? Didn't you hear me!? I will burn everyone here to a crisp!

You looked Heat Wave in the eye.

X: I believe you.

You focused your energy, and flee into the air with Heat Wave.

You stopped when you were high above the stadium.

X: Rox, am I high enough?

Rox let out a relieved sigh.

Rox: Yeah, we're good.

You gave Heat Wave a angry scowl, and flew back down to the ground.

When you landed back at the stadium, you dropped Heat Wave, and landed a finishing blow to his head.

You looked around, and saw the crowd of spectators cheering for him, with himself on the Jumbotron.

Flash ran next to you, throwing his arm over you.

Flash: Congratulations! You're a hero!

Flash waved at the crowd.

Flash: LET'S HEAR IT FOR X!

Crowd: X! X! X! X!

As the crowd cheered your name, you felt like a true hero.

Timeskip, CCPD Super Criminal Transport
Heat Wave sat in the back of the transport, holding a ice pack on the bruise you gave him on his face.

The transport suddenly hit something, causing Heat Wave to be thrown from his seat.

The transport doors were frozen, and blown open.

Heat Wave: You were right, the new kid showed up.

Heat Wave's ally walked into the transport.

Captain Cold: I knew he would.
