In the safehouse near the G-Men mansion, Butcher monitors the going ons around the mansion thanks to the bugs planted there by Alicorn. Like she said she showed up at the mansion and told John Godolkin that she's be showing up for the funeral of Silver Kincaid. She and Silver Kincaid at least in the comics have a warm relationship compared to the other G-Men and the spin off teams. Which started after that PR event where she and Silver Kincaid showed off their powers. In reality Silver Kincaid couldn't stand Alicorn for just being better than her, but for appearance sake Alicorn will show up for her funeral.
To see if there is any truth of Godolkin being a pedophile, Hughie has been setup in G-Wiz as a mole. The members of G-Wiz are acting like an out of control frat boys who just party all the time. With them being very open about being naked and other things, where Hughie caught them jerking each other off while watching a porno. Even asking him if he wanted to join in, in the same tone that one would use to ask if you wanted something to drink. Showing that their standards of acceptable social behavior have been seriously skewed. Like during Saint Patrick's day Hughie found them peeing on one of their teammates, and all of them are laughing at it, like they do during one of their group baths. All very likely caused by Godolkin's sexual abuse.
"From what I have read up, all of this is clear signs of something serious gone wrong during their childhood years," Mother's Milk said who is the best investigator/detective of the group.
"What about the missing child reports?" Butcher asked.
"Asked around and found that the town Silver Kincaid killed herself in, she was taken from there. Asked around and found that a girl just disappeared years ago, the girl's hair became silver when she was eight due to trauma from a horse ride gone awry," Mother's Milk said.
"Godolkin instead of picking up kids who has no parents just grabs kids who have parents," Butcher frowns.
"What you think of how much Alicorn knows about this already?" Mother's Milk ask.
"She doesn't know everything but she knows enough to be dangerous to the G-Men. Probably being held back from taking action by the company," Butcher says.
"They are the second biggest earners for the company," Mother's Milk said.
"Where is Alicorn?" Butcher ask.
"She's currently promoting the upcoming Dazzlings performance at her estate, after she clear up wreckage from a car accident," Mother's Milk said.
"Great the sirens are coming back, for what is this number of their newest tour?" Butcher ask.
"They're on their 13 tour of the world, then once it's over they stop for a couple of years before they do it all over again," Mother's Milk said bringing up their file on the Dazzlings who once went by the Sirens before they rebranded themselves in the 90s.
"Power of their voices lets them enthrall anyone who hears their songs, expect for people who don't listen in person or are just tone-deaf, or just doesn't like their music," Mother's Milk said. (1)
"Which they used to make themselves into superstars in the music world and have orgies, drugs, and parties that wreck hotels. Too bad using the same game plan with dealing with superheroes don't work on them," Butcher said as they do have files on the Dazzlings and other music supers, but unlike the superheroes blackmailing them with pictures of them having orgies and taking drugs isn't that effective.
"Sure, because no non-powered rock star or any other music artist has ever done that," Mother's Milk said sarcastically.
"Would have made it so much easier for all of us if the superheroes were just like the entertainers instead of pretending to be heroes," Butcher said. (2)
"At least most aren't power houses and are easier to deal with. Of course having pictures of them having sex with sex workers and taking drugs wouldn't surprise anyone who knows anything about the music world," Mother's Milk said.
"Plus, we would have to get in line for that. Plenty of people do that already to sell to the tabloids," Butcher said.
"And it looks like they're not the only ones coming. They're also bringing along The Elements Misers," Mother's Milk said bringing up the article, showing the four sisters each with a different elemental power.
Cold Miser has pale skin that is light blue. Her ice blue hair is short and spiky. She wears a blue shirt and silver leggings, a blue striped scarf, blue gloves and long, blue pointed shoes. Cold Miser is abnormally tall as she towers over most in stature, but out of the sisters, is the taller one and she is very slim and lanky. Her powers may look like she has ice powers but the ice is just a side effect of her real power, she can slows molecules to absolute zero.
Heat Miser has darker skin than her icy sister, but she is still fairly pale, although her skin does have a slight orange tint to it. Her long hair is red and sticks up, making it look like flames, which it does when she uses her power. She wears a red shirt and yellow leggings, and long, red pointed shoes. Like her sister, she is abnormally tall and towers over most people at 7 feet tall, but out of the two sisters, she is the shorter one in stature but has a much more voluptuous figure. Her power like her sister make look like she's controlling fire, but her real power, she can speed up molecules till they build up so much heat that they burst in flames or melts.
Gale Miser has light skin tone with a slight green tint to it. She has long thick dark green hair that reaches her knees. She's also the shortest of the sisters and has a petite figure. She wears a light green body stocking and a form-fitting V-neck dark green dress with a high collar, long sleeves, and four high-cut leg slits that show off her shapely long legs and green low-heeled shoes. Her power lets her create vacuums of air around her, letting her release powerful burst of wind with the force of a gentle summer breeze, to hurricane force winds that can send
Stone Miser has dusty skin that has a slight grey tint to it. She has brown hair that she keeps short. She's the second tallest and the most athletic of the sisters with a muscular built. She wears a sleeveless brown shirt and light brown pants and brown boots. Her power lets her turn her body into any kind of stone, and she can bond with any kind of stone and shape it like clay.
They would had been put on one of the comics like so many other supers, but instead it was during one of the Dazzlings downtimes between tours that they were discovered by them. The sisters were spending time apart doing their own things with Sonata Dazzlings being one of the judges in one of those 'Idol Shows' in the 90's in the states. Her sisters were doing their own things in Europe at that time. The Miser sisters who didn't gain their powers yet, entered the show and while they didn't win, caught Somata's eye and took them under her wing.
Sonata trained them to be singers and dancers, telling them what to expect from the music world. She also points out during a talent show, being technical instead of a performer during a performance isn't a winning strategy. The people watching aren't watching to see a prefect dance or singing that a panel of judges are nip picking apart for any flaws, they're there to be entertained.
The Miser sisters worked as backup singers for Sonata's solo acts she putted on time to time, when the sisters powers suddenly activate and they transformed into what they are now. Instead of signing up with Vought-American, they stayed with Sonata and began their careers as singers. Using their powers in their shows and becoming musical stars, signing up with the Dazzlings record company, Crystal Mountain Records.
"Dress up like the Miser brothers from that Christmas special and are a popular group. They got the one who owns the rights to that to let them use that for their act for a cut of the profits," Mother's Milk said.
"You certainly keep up with the musical supers," Butcher said.
"Janine is a huge fan of the Dazzlings as much as she's a fan of Equestria. The Dazzlings and the supers with their record company are huge in Europe, which Vought has been trying to corner that market place. But it doesn't matter if they have powers or not, as that field people without powers can easily run rings around those who have powers by talent alone," Mother's Milk said.
"Would help if they actually get people who have talent," Butcher said.
"There is Songbird but she's the exception to the rule. Most of the bands and solo acts Vought turns out are mostly one hit wonders and fads. Remember Rainbow Smash?" Mother's Milk ask.
"Frenchman got pictures of them at that party with minors and before we could use it, some guy sold his photos to a tabloid. Got the band arrested and Vought quickly replace them," Butcher said.
"They do have more rejects than people who would be able to be superheroes. Besides as I said sex pictures and what's not of super powered music artists is no different from normal artists doing the same thing," Mother's Milk said.
"No wonder Vought doesn't protect them like the superheroes," Butcher said. The only good thing is that the music supers are a good source of information.
"Got a message from Alicorn," Mother's Milk said seeing the email sent to them and opens it reading it. "We need to pull Hughie out now."
"What is it?" Butcher ask.
"Alicorn has been informed that something big is going to happen with the G-Men and she needs to not be there," Mother's Milk said.
"Tell Frenchman and Female to pull Hughie out. But stay around to see what's going to happen," Butcher said.

Day of the Funeral -
As she said that she would, Alicorn showed up for the funeral and stayed for the wake, mostly for the free food. Outside the mansion, The Boys are watching the wake and listening from the bugs planted. And from what they're hearing Alicorn isn't playing around as she talk with Godolkin.
"Enjoying yourself?" Godolkin ask walking up to the table where Alicorn sat, the lone non G-Men who came to the funeral.
She sat at a table by herself with several plates of food and drink she's eating by herself, like most people with powers she's a big eater to fuel her power. She's also has that unicorn style helmet and a breastplate with metal wings with jet boosters, showing that once she's done eating she be flying back home. She also has her lance by her side.
Godolkin is weary of Alicorn as the company made it known to all superheroes on their payroll, that any who mess with her loses their paychecks. His G-Men brings in nearly 2 billion in profits for the company, but Alicorn brings in over 8 billion in profits and he was told by Stillwell when Alicorn made itself known she would be going to the funeral for appearance sakes that her visit needs to have no issues. She's the biggest earner for the company and unlike his G-Men, she doesn't cost them anything, no cover ups or paying for damages and people off. And most of all, not being a risk of blowing the carefully crafted image of superheroes that the company spends nearly a billion a year to maintain.
"Besides your teams being at each others throats and barely being able to stand being around each other. It's a standard funeral," Alicorn said.
Godolkin looked over at her with an eyebrow raised. "You know I'm not happy about having you here."
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Alicorn replied innocently.
"No idea?" He asked again looking down at her.
Alicorn snorted and shook her head. "This crossover will boost sales for all the G-Men comics. It is me we're talking about and the company who funds you and your teams, have already sighed off on it."
He nodded, though he didn't like that part of him agreeing with her, but he knew that she was right.
"Besides, I heard what happen with Nubia and heard about how those with V can be brought back to life, very expensive but it can be done," Alicorn said looking over at the bald black woman who just stands around, saying 'kill me' over and over again. "And them coming back wrong, has been proven true. Keeping her like that is just cruel."
"She's my little girl," Godolkin said. "She and all of the G-Men are my children."
"Who went crazy like so many other members of G-Men and had to be put down by other members. Which is why Silver killed herself in the town where you got her from," Alicorn said causing everyone who heard her to stop whatever they were doing and stared at her. "Her hair is white, like how a young girl who went missing also had white hair because of a horse ride that went wrong."
"What?" Godolkin asked, his eyes narrowing.
"I don't understand why you got kids who had families, instead of actually doing what you say you did. Getting them as ones without families and runaways, instead of grabbing them off the streets," Alicorn explains having gotten the attention of all the G-Men.
"You need to go now, before I have to send someone to escort you out," Godolkin said holding his hand to stop his G-Men from acting.
"Sure, child rapist," Alicorn said causing many in the room to react at what she just said. "I was just guessing at that part. Thanks for confirming it. He force himself onto all of you as children and because of all the money and high standard of life you all get, you all keep it secret. Explaining why you are all messed up and the ones who can't handle it go crazy and are taken care of, so that the money keeps on flowing. And all it cost is to keep what he did to all of you… no wait you all joined in on the younger ones didn't you. Trapping yourselves into the web at the cost of who you all use to be, turning you all into nothing but his sex toys that will do anything he says as long as he keeps giving you candy and money."
A few of the G-Men in the room started to move forward, but Godolkin held up his hand to stop them.
"We don't want any problems with you, Alicorn. We're all on the same page, for once, so let's leave things alone," he said and turned to the rest of the group, trying to calm them down.
"None of us said no," Five-Oh said.
"Gonna! Gonna...GONNA!" Groundhawk growled rushing forward and raising his hammer hands to bring it down on Alicorn but stop as he was held in the air.
"If you all want to fight," Alicorn said as she picks up her lance and used her telekinesis to pull off the large window to the front yard and put on her helmet. "Let's take this outside."
!
Outside -
From their vantage point, The Boys watch as a widow was pulled inside and out came Alicorn along with Groundhawk being held in the air by Alicorn's power. She let him drop where he rolled along the ground but got back on his feet and leap at Alicorn who evaded all of his swings while landing blows on Groundhawk with the weighted end of her lance. The end of the lance is a blunt studded mace head that Alicorn uses when she can't use the bladed end.
"Wow, Alicorn is a skilled fighter," Frenchman said watching as Alicorn beats up on Groundhawk, who never had to fight someone like her before.
"I always did wonder what it be like to see a supe who has skills to back up their powers," Mother's Milk said.
The other G-Men joined in, with Europo teleporting from behind to punch Alicorn in the back of the head only for her to block his punch with her metal wing and then grab him with her telekinesis and throw him into the mass of G-Men knocking them all down. The G-Men had the numbers but they never had to actually use their powers in a fight. They're use to dealing with normal power without powers and never been in a real super fight before. Those with long range attacks tried to use their powers on her but only ended up hitting their own, like Flamer only ended up burning Critter and Stacker being hit by energy blast. All awhile Alicorn is controlling the fight with her telekinesis, grabbing G-Men and flinging them into others or making them hit someone else instead, using her metal wings to block and slap away others and swinging her lance around using the weighted end to smash them with. (3)
"Luckily most lack the training to utilize their powers effectively and efficiently. And they're just getting in each others way as she just redirects their attacks into someone else," Butcher said.
"Glad I'm not in the middle of that," Hughie said.
The fight ended once Godolkin step into the middle of the fight and shouted for them to stop. The G-Men all froze and stop what they were doing, as they know that once Godolkin starts shouting, it's not the time to mess around. Godolkin stared down all of his children as they know he means business, he calmed himself down and turns to Alicorn.
"Leave now!" Godolkin said doing his best to control himself.
Whatever Alicorn would had said was drown out as Red River attack helicopters came flying into view. Alicorn suddenly sized all the G-Men with her telekinesis, showing how much she was sandbagging herself and force them all into a ball held in midair. The attack helicopters all open fire on the ball of supers, hitting them with high powered bullets meant to deal with armored vehicles and harden targets. The helicopters continue to fire into the screaming mass of bodies till they had depleted their ammo stocks. They fired all of their missiles into the ball, till they also had no ammo left.
Alicorn drop the mass of bodies as the helicopters landed and fully armored Red River soldiers came out, armed with flamethrowers. In the bloody mass of bodies of the G-Men, some of them were still alive somehow, mostly the ones in the middle of the ball and the ones who are just that tough. Even then they're missing body parts or like Critter half the man he use to be. The Red River soldiers ended it, spraying flaming jell on the mass of G-Men. The few survivors screamed as they were cooked alive, the screams stop.
Godolkin could only stare in horror seeing his G-Men in a flaming pile. Alicorn stabs his groin with her lance, and swung down slicing his groin open. Godolkin screamed in pain as he fell to the ground clutching his bleeding groin. Alicorn used her telekinesis on him and fling him onto the pile of burning G-Men. He screamed as he burns alive and tried to crawl out of the fire but couldn't and he burn to death.
Out of one of the helicopters came out James Stillwell, he exchanged some words with Alicorn before she flew off. The footage from the security cameras on the mansion had caught everything and a review of it would stun the personal of Vought-American who review it. For they have never actually seen a superhero who actually knows how to use their powers and had the combat skills to back it up. The news would spread around and many groups would know that Alicorn thinking that she's the best, is actually backed up by truth. She is that powerful and has the skills to back up her claim.
"Fuck," Butcher said as he and the others had watched the whole thing. Seeing that Alicorn may think that she is a unicorn from a magical world but she is also the most powerful and skillful super they have ever encountered.

Author Notes -
1 - The Dazzling powers of controlling people by their song only works in person. Also people who are tone-deaf and the ones who just don't like their singing. Like the Scotsman from Samurai Jack when the sirens tried to mind control him like everyone else but he's immune to their song, because he doesn't like their song.
2 - The Boys tv show, has the heroes actually helping out here and there. Instead of them just doing nothing but PR stunts now and then.
3 - Alicorn is able to fight all the G-Men, is because of her telekinesis allowing her to control the flow of the fight and mess up the attacking G-Men to hit each other or to slip or toss them into each other. Plus the G-Men like the other supers never trained to actually use their powers in any skillful manner. She's a Genius Bruiser to most supers brawn and no skills.
