The Marvelous World of Taylor Hebert!

World 212

"Don't let her appearance deceive you! She's the most dangerous villain you will ever face."

"Really?" Crucible inquired. He was new to this particular city, but he couldn't possibly see how a single low level master could inspire such immense respect and fear from Clockblocker, who was so lackadaisical he was used as a cautionary tale in the Wards teams throughout the country on why you need to respect your superiors and your foes.

"She's much more dangerous than her appearance would imply."

"But, she looks so, cute?"

"Yeah, It makes you underestimate her. She's no Nice guy, but even knowing what we know about her people still underestimate her. She's taken out Lung, The entire team of Wards, Glory Girl, Bakuda, Lung Again, Shadow Stalker, Coil, Mannequin, Dragon, and even Echidna!"

"Yeah about Echidna..."

"Right, sorry, I can't tell you about Echidna. That whole thing was terrifying though. Not Just because of echidna, but because of Her as well."

"Look, I don't get what's so dangerous about her? She's just a low level master."

"First off, she's not just a low level master. She's also got razor sharp claws-"

"I've seen the files, they're not that sharp-"

"Razor Sharp Claws!"

"Fine."

"And a semi-prehensile tail-"

"How does that work? how is it semi-prehensile?"

"She can move it around as she likes, but she can't grab things with it."

"I'm not sure it works like that-"

"Not Important! Not only does she has razor sharp claws and a semi-prehensile tail, but there's also her master rating to worry about."

"I read up on that. I don't get what the big deal is, It's not like she controls humans, or robots, or something dangerous. They're just Squirrels. And she doesn't even have absolute control over them! It's just an empathic bond, it's not like she can see through their eyes or anything. Of that team I'd think Hellhound would be the master to worry about, I mean giant angry monster dogs are a lot more threatening than Squirrels."

"Just Squirrels he says... Look, Crucible. Forget what you've read. Forget what you think. Squirrel-Girl is an incredibly dangerous threat. If you underestimate her, you will lose. You might lose even if you don't underestimate her. You're not ready to fight her. if you see her. Call for back up. you can't take her. Do you understand?"

Crucible nodded. He understood. Clockblocker was having him on. A prank on the new guy. As if being locked out of the loop about that whole Echidna thing wasn't enough.

"Sure. I got it." Crucible smiled. He knew better. He wasn't going to let his first run in with Squirrel girl end in humiliation. There was no way he was running from such a harmless villain.

Clockblocker nodded and turned to leave, tossing one last piece of advice over his shoulder. "Remember, If you see her? Call for backup and run. You're not ready for her yet."

"Meh." Crucible muttered to himself after Clockblocker left. "They're just squirrels, I can take her."
