flying to interecept and catch....
Suddenly the darkness violently shudders as an eery wave peels throughout the area, debris on the city floor rises and then just as sharply falls again.
The villain stops his monologue.
"What?" he ponders what power is trying to interrupt his newfound power.
When Skater lowered himself into contact with the surface of the darkness sphere a series of rumblings began that even Supergirl can hear.
The darkness sphere hasn't faded so its still pitch black down there but for some reason the darkness is reacting to Skater's presence.
hmm interesting; is it picked up on by my mystical senses?
hmm interesting; is it picked up on by my mystical senses?
The pulsing continues as even more debris shifts and falls almost instantly.
Perturbed the villain shrugs after a moment and throws his erstwhile captive off the roof top before starting to levitate upwards...
Ok, I'll try and withdraw the darkness from the area by flying around it superfast.
Supergirl ascends once more and begins to circle the darkness sphere, meanwhile Skater starts to scream as electricity coats the edge of the sphere sending him flying out of contact only to descend again inside the sphere disappearing from sight as unseen by anyone a figure raises itself out of the darkness and looks around.
"Only one hero? Hmph and he couldn't even stand a little lightning, how sad, pathetic really," Baron Mordo mutters as he gazes out at the rest of the city with the darkness sphere beneath his feet.
Maelidek meanwhile rushes to catch Johnny Illuminanti from his death plunge...
Agility roll to catch; 41 gives me a green on the feat table

You fly down and grab the falling body.
He appears to be badly beaten but is still breathing even if his clothing has been literally shredded and his face is covered in blood.Odd thing is his blood is making your magical senses tingle as if he's literally bleeding magic which is making you wonder who or what he is.
******************************************
MEANWHILE UP ABOVE
******************************************
Baron Mordo gazing around him with a cocky grin on his face that starts to slip as he realises the darkness sphere he was levitating above is slowly shrinking.
Looking down he begins to grimace.
"Those powers are now mine!" he roars as he begins to head back down again.
********************
SOMEWHERE ELSE
********************
"Ow!" Skater groans wondering where he's landed.
Unfortunately he's inside the darkness sphere and has no idea where he is...
Anticipating that the bad guy might come to see the fallen body smashed on the ground; I need to find a place to hide him and check his condition so I move into a building; with a mans life possibly on the line; i will use my greater than normal strength to pull a door off or open a window; need to move quickly and not leave any trace to follow though there is not much I can do about the dripping blood other than fly fast and not leaving a coherant trail.
"can you speak; I have caught you from your fall; I shall move you to a place where your condition can be ascertained and it would be helpful if you provided some insight as to what is going on and who was that who dropped you off a very high building."

There's enough damage done to the city for you to find an apartment to hide within.
"Ugh..." is his only reply.
I do my best to provide first aid; Dark Faire magic is mostly charms and mental stuff; so could maybe ease his pain that way, but dont have any heals or like that; so will do my best with bandages from sheets; curtains band aides; whatever I can find.
I ask:
" do you need a hospital or medical center of some kind; I can take you or find some emergency personael; but I must know what you can tell of this ongoing battle; are you in pain; I may be able to help you not feel so bad; though you will still be injured; it is up to you."

He's passed out but at least he doesn't seem to be bleeding as badly as before.
hmm; decisions decisions; to stay and ward this one who might provide some insight and clues to the situation; or go out and meet with the others and possibly chastize the one who would drop someone from a building so high.
look out of the broken apartment and see what is happening; hmm though i could magically contact or signal Supergirl; it would probably be noticed by others and pinpoint our position which may cause more harm to this one I have just bandages; also, as he has a magic aura; am not sure how my magics would interact with him; though my forcefield and flight i will have to keep risking for my own safety.
will try to wave a flag or otherwise mundanely signal one of my comrades; and will look around to see if i need to immediately intervene somewheres else.; If one of them in embattled; I will go to there aid of course.

What you do realise is that the injured man is the centre of the darkness sphere for although the area is definitely shrinking you find it difficult to see beyond the area that marks its gradually shrinking interior.
You thought you heard someone landing but at the time wasn't looking outside so didn't see what hit nor where.
Flashing right in at hyperspeed Supergirl whirls around the hapless mage smothering him in her cape before speeding right up, his response is relatively thuggish as he blasts left and right trying to free himself unfortunately the spinning is preventing him from aiming properly but he does after a few moments free himself by burning through the cape...
Released and since both he and supergirl were in flight his momentum carries him straight down narrowly avoiding the edge of the now rapidly shrinking sphere of darkness careering off the roof of a car on the street and into one of the small shops that litter the area smashing through the reinforced plate glass window and lands inside the jewelery shop causing even more loud damage to match his swearing and screaming as he comes to a stop.
Then there's silence as the sphere finally contracts within an apartment and disappears leaving Supergirl alone up in the sky with the remains of her cape in hand looking down from the night sky at the now revealed city streets below...
It is now clear there's been more damage than when Supergirl first tried to descend within the sphere of darkness than she previously thought of course telling which was caused by her, Baron Mordo or her missing companions might take some time to tell apart except the sphere must have contracted where it did for a reason and the jewellery shop's shattered front exterior makes it clear where Mordo landed...
"Mess with my cape, you get one really ticked off Kryptonian!"
Flashing in you barely stop in time as you realise that barring the now screaming alarms and the shattered displays let alone the demolished front shop window the jewellery shop is empty with no sign of the villain you had seen career into through that same shop window a moment before.
Intuition check is 59%, Remarkable, green. I shall utilize my microscopic vision and scan the area. Perhaps he can shrink.
Unable to see him Supergirl does hear the sirens of police cars approaching the area and above it all the sounds of something thumping on the rooftops like some oversized basketball being pounded across the city.
Attempt counterspell on the wounded figure at my feat; if my sight tell me the darkness comes from him; perhaps I can counterspell it to withdraw back into his body and perhaps this will heal him.
I cast counterspell.
Satisfied that the villain has fled like the coward he is, I will survey the area examining the damage as well as the source of the thumping sound.
Your x-ray vision spies someone that looks remarkably like a human bouncing ball heading across the rooftops towards the shattered remains of the new polcie building

I cast counterspell.
The darkness rapidly congeals back within the man before you but it resists any further counterspelling leaving a small trail leaking from a hole inbetween his eyes marked by what looks like a black spot...
I examine this leaking spot using my special visions; and probe my mystic learning for any correlation of this type of event. I also try to determine how grevious this persons injuries are; if need be, I will look outside this hole into the street to look for some emergency personael; cops, parametics, firemen and the like as I am not yet a healer yet considering this battle; this may be something I need to study to be of greater assistance.

"Oops!" the figure comes to a sudden halt even as his abrupt speech is uttered.
He deflates slightly as he lands before you."Uh, hello?" he greets you somewhat stunned his costume designed it seems to cope with his unusual abilities looks covered in soot and somewhat burned although he looks relatively unharmed albeit dirty.
ok; rolled a 78. which is yellow on the feat table; I dont know how to add my knowledges in game terms; have mystic background and occult lore.

It appears you have somehow managed to return control over whatever artefact or magical nexus this person is making use of, his physical injuries will take time to heal but at least for now his powers are still his own.
I breath a sigh of relief; if he is not wearing or has to much iron; I will try to cast a fey emotion control spell to calm his fear; restore his bravery and confidence thinking perhaps this will awaken him.
<dont think pain is an emotion; fey magic is charm, a bit of entropy; summon lesser fey like gremlins and the like; emotion control; mezmerism and like that from the list I saw; once he opens his eyes I can try to mezmerize him into ignoring his pain as I would think mezmerizm would be abit like high powered hypnotism; correct me if I am wrong; not sure the difference between mezmerism as a spell and mezmerism as a talent as for effects; what I am ready doesnt really say.>

"Going somewhere? And you would be whom?"
"Oops!" the figure comes to a sudden halt even as his abrupt speech is uttered.
He deflates slightly as he lands before you.
"Uh, hello?" he greets you somewhat stunned his costume designed it seems to cope with his unusual abilities looks covered in soot and somewhat burned although he looks relatively unharmed albeit dirty.
"Name's Pong, out of curiosity are you any relation with that bloke down in Metro City?" he asks trying to get a grip on the sight of a young woman floating in mid-air before him.
