Darkday.
Perhaps it was so sort of celestial humor, but like his first subordinate, Riley's supervillain na was also bestowed upon him by another. However, unlike Scarlet Mage, whose na was collectively thought of by the masses, his was given by a single individual.
It was 3 months after his first appearance; when the dia and most of the news outlets in the US were only just starting to get a hold of his deeds from the authorities. The governnt doesn't generally announce the rise of a new supervillain, not until they were sure that they were truly a threat to the country.
Most of the wannabe supervillains mostly just end up as normal criminals; apprehended by either the police or the superheroes before they could even cause a miserable chain of events that would warrant them being tagged as a supervillain. This helped minimize the panic of the citizens, as the birth of a new supervillain was not to be taken lightly.
Riley has killed a superhero and so civilians during his first appearance-- but that was it. After that, all trace of him was gone. Throughout the 3 months, he truly only made an appearance one in each month; and after the last one, the governnt no longer had a choice but to let their country know of his existence.
Riley massacred half a thousand people; people who were just casually going on about their days and strolling inside a mall. The dia knew of this incident, but had no idea who was responsible for it-- after all, it wasn't until everyone inside the mall was dead that they knew of what happened.
There was only one survivor, Replica Ricky-- a superhero who was able to make copies of himself. He described the perpetrator as an individual wearing fully clad in black and wearing a sowhat oversized jet-black helt. And as soon as the governnt got wind of this description, they finally announced Riley's existence.
Replica Ricky told the governnt that he was able to deeply wound the new supervillain, catching him off-guard at the very last minute. But this didn't seem to faze the villain, as he quickly killed his duplicate afterward.
Replica Ricky was sure that if the villain knew that it was only a duplicate he killed, he would have surely hunted him as well. And all of this information was taken in by the governnt-- He was, however, still naless.
Only revealed to the dia as to how Replica Ricky described him. But with his existence already out there, every up-and-coming superhero wanted to get a piece of him, waiting for the mysterious black-clad supervillain to once again make his appearance.
And they did not even have to wait long. With Riley's child-like excitent growing with each day, he could no longer contain his urges to bathe himself in the pained screams of his victims. Imdiately, a few days after his existence was scattered in the news, he once again made his appearance-- this ti right in the middle of the city.
It was just like any other day; until multiple busses filled with people started hovering in the air, covering a part of the city in shadows.
It was just like any other day; until the busses started shooting down from the sky. The fires, the screams, the dust that covered that suddenly the eyes of the people; all combining to create an orchestra of chaos.
It was music to Riley's ears, almost causing his body, which might have been undergoing puberty at that ti, to shiver in delight.
The response of the police and the superhero were swift, arriving at the scene not even a quarter of an hour after the busses had fallen. However, one might consider them still too late as hundreds of people had already died.
One of the reinforcents that arrived was Replica Ricky, as he was the only superhero alive that had already encountered Riley. He was with several other superheroes, ready to apprehend and catch this new evil supervillain before he could wreak more havoc.
But alas, they were outmatched. With the dia recording live through their helicopters, the world was able to see how Riley slaughtered the superheroes; playing with them like dolls as their bodies were twisted beyond recognition.
It did not even take half an hour, but Replica Ricky has found himself the only survivor once again. The people already mourned for him as they saw the black-clad individual slowly hovering towards him… but then, there was a boom; a whistle traveling in the air that made everyone watching through their screens excited.
The dia held the sa sentint, as they all zood in their caras towards the approaching sound.
And there, higher above the skies, a silhouette approached; faster than the speed of sound, and yet held a grace as if in a ballet-- ga Woman has finally arrived.
She stopped right above all the chaos, looking at the destruction that the new supervillain had caused. There were cars buried inside the buildings, children lying lifeless on the ground… darkness caused by all the dust and debris that floated in the air.
Her eyes continued to wander as she dropped to the ground, searching for the villain that was responsible for all this mayhem-- and yet there was no one.
The dia also scattered to look for the black-clad villain, but when they pointed their caras to the ground again, he was no longer to be found. He disappeared… along with Replica Ricky.
It was right at that mont, when ga Woman stood right on the center, surrounded with nothing but darkness that everyone realized that a new supervillain had dawned upon them-- one that could not be ignored.
ga Woman then once again flew to the air, creating a thunderous explosion that cleared out all of the dust; once again allowing the sun to reach the ground and fully revealing the onslaught that had transpired.
And as she reached the sky, she stood in front of one of the helicopters and looked directly in front of the cara that one of the people from the dia was holding.
"This… is a dark day not only for the people of this city but for the whole country. This dark day will co again, but I promise all of you… I will be there to put an end to it."
And with a short ssage, she once again flew away into the skies; leaving the people with a na for the new supervillain-- Darkday.
In a sort of ironic kind of way, ga Woman was the one who gave birth to the supervillain that would one day be known as the worst of them all.
And ga Woman did co whenever Darkday makes an appearance, but their eting would always be brief, as Darkday imdiately disappears as soon as she cos to save the day. Their etings were plenty, but that is a story for another ti.
"Bro… you alright?"
"Yes."
Riley's reminiscing was quickly disrupted as he felt a hand approach him from the side, which he quickly avoided.
"Good," Gary nodded as he let out a short but deep breath, "You just kinda spaced out on us while we were thinking of our superhero nas. Anyway, listen to this; Silvie is ga Girl, as you nad her. I will be the Dragon Monarch because it sounds hella cool."
"I have also decided on mine," surprisingly, Bella and her brother were still in front of the group, "But I'll keep it a secret until Spectacular Mustache Man arrives."
"Such a romantic, sister. Then I shall also do the sam--"
"ga Girl isn't decided yet!" Silvie suddenly stood up from her seat before Ben could finish his words. Her voice, clearly showing her frustration before sitting back down, "This is all your fault, Riley!"
"I think it really suits you, Silvie," Riley shook his head before taking a glance at Silvie, "You remind of ga Woman, after all."
"Everyone here wants to be ga Woman, of course I would remind you of her!" Silvie crossed her arms as she pouted.
"Give it up, Silvie," Gary sighed, "Everyone here agrees that--"
"Shut up! I still haven't forgiven you for what you did yesterday!"
"T… that's…" Gary could only let out an awkward chuckle as he once again returned to his seat, dejectedly.
"I am not going with ga Girl!" Silvie once again repeated and showed her displeasure, "I am sure many others have already thought of it as well!"
"But I think you're the only one that has the right to use it, Silvie." Riley once again shook his head.
"Look, I really appreciate you comparing to ga Woman… but I am not going to take that na!"
"I see. That is your choice, Silvie," Riley once again shook his head, this ti with a sigh, "It's truly such a sha…
...Especially since you look like her."
"W… what?"
