Basilisk continues to eff around and find out.

She's kind of fearless for a villain. We will find out that she really does not care if she dies as long as she lives the way she wants to.

I think we all know she won't die as we've seen her in other comics.

Unless they're not canon.

At which point, yeah she's dead. :V

Also the killing thing, yeah, not the right hero to say it to.

Virgo is reluctant but knows when it's time to put something down.

Not so fast. If I remember the portents that were given at the start of this, Ramas only said "One of you will take a life", and that one has already occurred, so whatever Cap is about to do likely isn't going to be fatal I'd wager. Will still likely come out better than Slaver though.

You guys make me so happy that you are paying such close attention

"Be pure of heart and gentle of intentions. Though I can see one of you becoming a monster." -Ramas (pg 45, panel 6) -- https://www.furaffinity.net/view/2207383/

But we seem to be at two 'monsters' so far, Gemini on page 255 and red Capricorn here, so maybe Ramas' predictions are not perfect. Besides Ramas actually said, "Though I can see one of you will be forced to take a life," and this situation doesn't seem to fit the "be forced to" part of that description.

"Avoid bloodshed if possible. Though I can see one of you will be forced to take a life." -Ramas (pg 45, panel 5) -- https://www.furaffinity.net/view/2207383/

From the looks of it, we don't really know Capricorn's powers. She might have some beyond the physical.
I'm thinking about something like Ghost Rider's 'Penance Stare'.
We will see if she comes out better than Slaver.

Basilisk looks like she underestimated Virgo.

Not to mention she did kill someone earlier, even if there she didn’t mean it.

Kill count rising!

After all...it won't be HER doing the killing lol

And now we will see the goat that eats anything

That's funny. I didn't even think of that.

Well, Basilisk was half-right. Virgo did let her go... straight into the arms of Cap.

True

surprised pikachu!!!

Hmmm, try not to become the monster, Cap.

Virgo kind of looked reluctant to let Basilisk go, given she was forced to kill Hell Hound in self-defense.

Well, Basilisk did sort of inadvertently hit a new and sore nerve. She didn't think herself the type either, until that moment of desperation. Virgo still probably believes there was a way she could have ended that confrontation non-fatally, but in the end, she didn't. She's simply compartmentalizing it until she can come to terms with it later, but it seems a part of her already has an understanding of "I am someone willing to commit violence to stop people". Wonder if Virgo would consider herself a hypocrite to stop Cap after what Virgo herself had just done to Hellhound.

Or maybe she doesn't want anyone else to have blood on their hands.

ah yes - hoping that the good guy wont kill... when the good guy has already killed

whoopsie

Bon appetit Rebecca.

Surprising response from Virgo though...

Yeah, I highly doubt we've heard her cuss.

Now that Capricorn has turned red she seems to have even gotten bigger... and her team uniform is still intact. I just noticed it is purple so New Dawn must have gotten it from the same place Bruce Banner gets his pants.

What happens to Basilisk's "hood" in the last frame?

There was a time when most heroes in Marvel got their costume from Reed Richards made out of 'Unstable Molecules'. Very adaptable stuff.

Her hood dropped when she got actually scared in the last panel. Gabe designed the fabric for her outfit. She already changes size when she shifts from Rebecca to Capricorn and a secret is that Gabe designed and sold the pants that Saurus wears as a side project.

She dropped her hood when sha actually got scared for once

Ooooooooh, would that she'd had the gumption to say "Tell that to Hell Hound...when you meet him in hell."

Holy moly, Basilisk never learns does she? I can only imagine what Demon Mode Capricorn will do now, and can I say....she looks terrifying and HUGE.

That said, where's Basilisk's hood?

She dropped it when she got actually scared in that last panel

enjoy your meal Capricorn!

Out of the frying pan, ...

For all the villains belittling of the heroes ideals I find that they seem to be the most naive, putting the hero on a pedestal believing that heroes are incapable of doing what needs to be done and are the most shocked when a hero ends them.

Break out the BBQ sauce!

This is really an interesting development for Virgo; I believe that the fact that she was forced to kill Hellhound kinda broke her high opinion of herself.
It was obvious at the beginning that she had a high opinion of herself and her moral compass, almost at the point of being slightly superb and arrogant in her own "virtue"; the act of killing broke her but actually in a sort of "constructive " way; she is more willing to use force and less prone to judge others, which Basilisk is going to find out in the hard way...

Good. The intent of this arc with Virgo , hellhound and basilisk was to challenge her morales and also her sense of absolutes. I think she will be stronger like testing steel through fire

Yep, that's precisely what I was thinking although I may have expressed myself not accurately in my previous comments; Virgo is broken but at the same time rebirth stronger.

Now I am very curios how this will evolve; the fact that Basilisk in the last panel is scared seem indicate that she really didn't expect Virgo's reaction and Cap now seem strong enough to do her some serious damage (a nice payback I say, considering that Basilisk had given Cap quite the beating before), a fact which Bailisk seem to be too aware.

Please don't kill the Basilisk. I want to see more of her in future. Also, maybe after that she will change her outlook on life.

Don’t hold your breath on basilisk turning a corner towards the good side. She’s pretty irredeemable

Well, in that case, just let her survive. She's my favourite villain.

It's been a while since I've seen these pages, I missed this comic.
