Last issue, Pulverizer was forced to turn down his old friend Bolt, who asked for his help back in NYC. He has instead been pursuing a threat to the city he watches over, Philadelphia, PA. It seems someone claiming to be an Aztec goddess has been attacking random people. His newest information has led him to a small park where she has apparently set up base.
As you approach the park, you notice that the gates have been completely entangled with vines, making it impossible to operate the gate.

Shoulda brought pruning shears-and some Round-Up.
Attempts to scale the vine-covered walls.

You manage to easily climb the wall.
Looking out into the park, you see that it isn't all that large... you can see the whole area from atop the wall. Near the center, the trees become much more dense, obscuring whatever might be in the center. You can see some movement all around inside, though not from animals - the plants themselves are moving. It could just be the wind, but the movement seems a little less natural than that...

As you grow closer, you can see that some of the plants seem to be actually moving like living creatures. They are staying rooted, for now, but turning about, rustling their leaves like whispers, almost as if they're talking to each-other. They don't seem to pay any attention to you; whether because you are actually hiding from them or they simply don't care that you are there.
As you continue forward, it becomes harder and harder to hide behind things that aren't plants... it seems all the rocks and such have been moved to the outer area. You feel as though the trees, bushes, and even grass are all watching you. It's also becoming darker, as the trees obscure most of the sunlight. They don't seem to be taking any action against you just yet.

*Emerges into the open*
"Stop being a spinless coward hiding behind your minions and face me!"

The trees let you through to a clearing in the middle where a beautiful woman stands. She is dressed in what appears to be Aztec garb and weilding a blue sword. She smiles in what appears to be amusement.
"You really wish to face me? I was going to pit you against some of my trees first, but if you desire to face me directly, that can be arranged as well."
She raises her sword, waiting to see what you'll do.

You manage to grab her. She is a bit suprised by this tactic, but starts struggling. Make a grapple check.

You manage to get her in a strangle-hold. She drops her sword, falling limp in your arms. The plants all about stop moving, her force over them slipping away.
It appears you have won before the combat even started...

*Looks around*
Well, that was a bit anti-climatic.
*Slings the unconcious form over his shoulder, and takes the sword*.
*Heads off to the Police Station*

You make your way back out of the park and over the wall.
As you start heading down the road, you feel her stiring in your arms. Roll initiative.

She seems to still be coming to, not yet completely aware of what is going on. Your turn.
