So Glam tests their power some more, and then has a meeting with Piggot where they explain the Siberian. She listens carefully, then asks them not to demonstrate, and says she will communicate that to the appropriate people. That takes a while, and then Lorica is asked to confirm this, and then Glam is asked to demonstrate to very few people with very high clearance.
This should not get out, it would be a PR nightmare, but if the Sibarian copy does what it looks like it does, its help will be invaluable in the upcoming Endbringer fights. When Glam decides to use that power, the story will be that a power copier has grabbed the Siberian's and is using it against the Endbringer, that people should not panic, and that she is an ally. Glam mentions, since they're all being so cooperative about telling everyone on the comms, that the Siberian copy doesn't have to look like the original, so people can know whether to panic or not based on her shape.
That leaves, of course, Glam's own willingness to face the Slaughterhouse Nine. Even if they don't know that Siberian is them, they will likely cause problems, and this will need to be carefully planned.
Careful plans tend not to survive contact with reality, and that is doubly true when the next Endbringer attack happens only two months and nine days after the previous one.
Not that it would matter much: Glam is definitely not going to a Simurgh fight, not yet.
"You two ran into Lung fighting Stormtiger and Crusader, you decided to go send Lung ten minutes back."
"Oh. Yay me! I'll just—" Another roar, and Lung appears, bounding from the direction they came from. "Oh shit he's fast," she says.
"We'll be there in thirty seconds!" says Glam.
The Crusader clone chooses this moment to stick his lance into Lung's stomach. Lung apparently ignores this and generates an explosion around himself, possibly disabling a number of the 'bots. He looks at Rewind's unconscious form, prepares a fireball, throws it-
—and Dauntless arrives with his forcefield in time to weather the blast and protect his teammate.
The three Glam copies are not far behind: one tall muscled copy, one with a grey suit, and the third holding a tinker-looking rifle.
The explosion takes out the bot with the foam sprayer. Another contingent is chasing Stormtiger and company; the enemy of their enemy is not their friend.
Miss Militia, ferried by a Glam-copy of Lorica herself, has taken up a roof position and is firing on Lung. When he takes the lance to the belly and shrugs it off she switches to lethal ammunition.
The Glam with the rifle reforms it into their more familiar-looking gun and goes after Stormtiger & co. with the bots. The muscled copy starts wrestling with Lung, who roars and explodes again, throwing himself bodily onto it. The other copy hugs Lung and becomes a statue, much like the one they'd used so long ago when training with Boots.
And he's getting larger.
The fleeing Crusader and Stormtiger managed to lose their pursuing bots and Glam-copy by using two more clones (Crusader looks exhausted) and releasing a blade of compressed air to create a gust strong enough to knock their pursuers wildly off-course.
Dauntless' forcefield brightens when hit by some of Lung's fire aimed at Lorica, but it holds.
A replacement is provided. "Gonna turret him," real Glam says into the comms, watching the fight from HQ, and a turret similar to (but visually less powerful than) the one that blasted Purity is conjured pointing at Lung. He notices it and jumps toward it before it can fire, tearing it to pieces. The two Glam copies on the battlefield hold onto Lung, and the returning blaster copy shoots at him with its gun several times as a second turret is formed. Lung explodes, but too late: the second turret blasts him away from Rewind toward the open street, and he rolls a few times before stopping.
Lung gets up and looks at the battlefield, then roars again, spitting fire then jumping toward the flying Glam copy with a gun. They dodge easily, but Lung explodes in fire again, burning the copy. Lung lands, and throws enough fire at Dauntless' forcefield to shatter it, then runs towards the hero—
Lung's face isn't the most human of faces at the moment. He spits fire at the foam before it hits him, not letting it stick, but the fire is slightly less hot than it was just before. The Glam copies start harassing him again, restraining him and shooting at him. He breaks free once more with some difficulty, exploding yet again.
Glam has to divide their attention many places, but they do manage to supply sprayers and get their copies to continue giving Lung grief. His fire is colder still, though, so he decides to cut his losses and throws the muscled copy at the bots. Another explosion sees him bounding away from the scene.
Where'd Transit take Rewind?
