Who: Superman and CLOSED! Various supers handled the dragon, Hulk, and split up to handle everything else.
What: DOING BATTLE WITH YON DRAGON
Where: The Strip, and immediate environs. Probably somewhere around the Wynn and the Venetian.
When: Now.
Warnings/Rating: Probably fine. Maybe some people will swear, but it won't be Clark.
Notes: Don't bother with the posting order. Fine writing not required for smashing and quick tags. Chi is at work, as certainly many other people are likely to be, so just carry on. We assume the monster keeps going until Ace says otherwise.

The lindworm was in the process of trying to crack a tour bus load full of screaming tourists with the exact same frustration off a terrier attempting to peel the tin foil off a steak when a streak of red and blue shot through the sky at an acute angle. The streak hit the dragon hard on the side of what approximated the head (the part just behind the teeth) causing it to drop the tour bus. Fifty-plus people plummeted down toward the sidewalk where more milling, screaming inhabitants attempted to find shelter without understanding where they were going.

Superman, perhaps the most iconic superhero in living memory, caught the bus twenty yards from the ground. He had the red cape, the S, the big muscles, the whole nine yards. He caught the bus with both upturned palms and quite literally flew off with it. Everyone stopped screaming for about ten seconds to gape.

Superman quickly realized that higher cognitive reasoning was not Hulk's strong point. But that light was so strong that he had no doubt that he was talking to something on the level of humans, and being an alien himself, he didn't have a problem with prejudice just because Hulk appeared not to be able to control the amount of damage he did.

"Good idea," he agreed, flashing an Elvis smile of white teeth and blue eyes. Superman looked off into the hazy distance. "I will throw them here." He gave Hulk a very stern look he used with children and stupid kids who wanted to be bank robbers. "Smash. No killing." And with that, he zipped off back toward the glistening city in an instant.

About thirty seconds later, the first of many dead zombies sailed in an arc high through the air, passed over at least half a mile of desert, and started to descend toward Hulk's head. Batter up.
