Billy Batson has posed:
The scene near the Outerbridge Crossing looks like a war zone. An abandoned (?) factory complex is in ruins. Dust hang in the air. Only a couple of police cars were present. After determining no civilians were present they quickly left due to the pall of dust. Shazam sits alone on a large, broken slab of concrete, hood hiding his face. One of the responders had given him a water bottle. The knuckles on the hand that holds it are bruised and bleeding. He slowly takes a sip.

Sunny Harlow has posed:
Maybe it was a text, maybe it was a tweet about the battle. Whatever it was, Sunny had finally found out. Enough time to change out of her work uniform and the blonde's arrival was a sudden burst of the sound barrier announcing her above!

Billy Batson has posed:
Billy Batson has really had enough of loud noises. He glances upward. Then he makes sure the police hav left, in case he wants to change back and bum a ride. He pats the slab next to him and doffs the hood. His right eye is black and swollen. His face is bruised and his lower lip cut and swollen. "Hey there, he says. You missed it." Small smile.

Sunny Harlow has posed:
"No kidding," Sunny speaks, Indestructibelle's arrival bringing a little glance around before she touches down, cape and all. "That looks like it actually hurts, like...alot."

Billy Batson has posed:
Billy Batson nods and stabs his finger for emphasis, "You do not fight the Juggernaut expecting to come away pretty. Stay clear of the Juggernaut. And they do hurt. I'm glad there's no school tomorrow. I need a little time to heal." He gets up and stumbles over to her and points to a spot on his chin. "It hurts everywhere but HERE."

Sunny Harlow has posed:
A little offer of her arm to stabilize him and she leans in to offer a little peck on his brow, tilting her head to the side with a thought. "I mean, when you say the word and do the thing to change back...are -you- still hurt? How does that all work?"

Billy Batson has posed:
Billy Batson simply says, "Shazam." He turns back in a flash and shows her the same injuries. He nearly falls over before saying the word again. "I'll heal faster like this. It hurts more as Billy." He shakes his head. "I was stupid. I held back the lightning and didn't fly and fought him on his terms. 'Wanted to beat him on his terms. Stupid."
