The Shield may be physically weak, but it's kind of moot when he can bash your face in with magical balls of steel.

Stepping into the alley where the reports of muggings had been coming in, The Shield's bubble clinked against the brick walls as he scanned the area. He could see a man in a leather jacket, crouched in a corner, holding a stolen bag. The Shield scoffed. "Looks like someone's in over their head."

The crook, a raccoon, eyed him warily but didn't back down. He stood up and stepped forward, a sneer on his face. "Listen here, bubbles, I ain't afraid of you."

The Shield's fur bristled in annoyance, "It's The Shield, and I'm about to make your day a whole lot worse," Stephano retorted, a fiery intensity in his gaze. He quickly formed a bubble around the mugger with a flourish of his hand, encasing the crook in a bubble that was both hard and unyielding. The crook tried to dodge it, only to be encased within. The Shield's bubble moved closer, and he could feel the vibrations of the mugger's pathetic attempts to break free.

The man's hands trembled, and he twisted and banged on the edge of the bubble. Stephano's bubble closed in, wrapping around the crook like a vice. "I'm going to do more than just lock you up and throw away the key," he grit his teeth, lifting the bubble-encased crook into the air. "Remember, no one messes with the Shield." he taunted, raising the crook even higher into the air, above rooftops.

Then, he outstretched his hand, spreading out his palm. The bubble popped, sending the crook, screaming, to fall to his death. Stephano's didn't even flinch as the raccoon's body crunched against the concrete, seeping blood onto the dirty floor.

Without glancing back, Stephano turned away, the bubble he was in rolling as he stepped out of the alley.
