[A swirling blue hue surrounds the four warriors and transports them to the Plumbers' Headquarters. The Plumbers are not present for some reason.]

Cara: Thanks for bringing us to your headquarters. We're interested in some technology.

[Mercury lets her drop to the floor.]

Mercury: Is this some kind of trick?

Pyrrha: He damaged the teleporter. I have no idea where we are. We'll figure it out later. You take the ninja, I'll take the pale woman.

Cara: What can I say? Everybody digs me.

[Pyrrha punches Cara in the face, knocking him down.]

Cara: Now...you don't hit like a girl...

[She gets back up.]

Cara: Can't we talk about this?!

[They fight. During the melee, Cara finds herself fighting with renowed skill and with magical powers she never possessed before. These newfound discoveries give her the advantage over Pyrrha and she knocks her unconscious.]

Cara: I beat her? I won? I WON! I mean, of course I won!

[Oboro and Mercury are still fighting in the background. They pause briefly to take in what Cara's saying.]

Oboro: Since when can you fight?!

Mercury: She's easy - it's ME you gotta worry about!

[They continue fighting, and Oboro lands a couple of hits while blocking Mercury's counterattacks.]

Oboro: I never worry.

[Cara examines her fingers in boredom. Oboro blocks a few more of Mercury's strikes and grabs his leg.]

Oboro: You're good, but you lack discipline.

[Mercury uses his other leg kicks her away.]

Cara: Allow me to discipline this cutie.

[Cara shoves Oboro down with ease.]

Oboro: Cara, what the hell--

Cara: Step aside, Obojoke...

[The rage begins to affect Cara, and she rubs her hands while approaching Mercury.]

Cara: I hope you put up more of a fight than Redhead did, because this woman is going WILD!

[They fight. Cara's newfound powers prove to be just as effective on Mercury as they were on Pyrrha and the Remnant criminal is soon down for the count. Cara boxes the air around him in celebration.]

Oboro: I don't believe it...he should have killed you! What's going on, Cara?

Cara: Don't know, don't care.

[Oboro bends down and examines Pyrrha's wrist portal.]

Oboro: This woman's teleportation device - it's what we need to get to Vilgax's planet. I think I can reactivate it.

[Oboro is planning to fix the wrist portal. But it looks like Cara has other plans.]
