 Aldrich was called on by the initiative and they broke him the news. Let's just say that he wasn't pleased. "What do you mean team up?" He growled. He never needed a team, he was already fine on his own. Most especially since he didn't want anyone sharing his limelight.
"I don't need a team up." He insisted.
"I'm not getting a team up."
________________
He's getting a team up. It was never something he would agree on, but what can he do? The initiative's commands weren't to be defied, unless he wanted a demotion that is. And so, he is teaming up. "Valkyrie" Aldrich mumbled, all calmed down than from before. Apparently, she was a fellow A class hero with powers complementing his. They'll make a great duo, at least what the initiative told him.
He might've heard of her before, he wasn't really sure. All he knew was that he'll now have to team up with whoever it is, and it only means that he'll have to show people a chemistry of sorts between them. Great, more acts. As he was told, she's supposed to be doing a mission on Arkham, and so, to Arkham he ran.

 Her official Initiative communicator has been chirping wildly for the past few minutes, trying to inform Valk of her incoming team-up. She's been ignoring it.
To be fair, she's been ignoring it because she's wrestling with a giant sewage monster that crawled out of a pothole in Arkham and just kept growing till it was the size of a small building. Then it decided to start leaking goop over actual small buildings, while waving its tentacles forlornly at the people walking down the street. They quickly turned into people running down the street.
Valk's not entirely sure the thing is even evil in the traditional sense of the word. Lonely, maybe. She punches it in what she thinks is its face and it makes a noise like a kicked puppy.

Well, that wasn't hard to miss at all. As Aldrich came to the destination, a giant sewage monster welcomed him. And fighting it was Valkyrie, he assumed so seeing no one else was engaging combat with the monster. "I'm on it!" He shouted as he ran towards it. "I'm fighting that!? Ugh. Disgusting." He thought to himself at the same time as he ran towards it.
Harnessing enough leg strength, Aldrich took a giant leap to be on the same level as that of what he assumed to be the monster's face. Aldrich gave it one mighty punch square on its face, splattering some sewage goop all over him as his punch made contact. The monster gave off another squeal as it began to flail its tentacles a lot wilder than before.
As he landed back down to the ground after the punch he had delivered, Aldrich shook off as much goo as possible off of him. He then turned towards the other hero. She wasn't bad at all, he'd hit it. He gave a brief salute and a charming smile towards the lady. "Midas, the initiative must've informed you."

Someone was yelling, which was not really a surprise when there was a sewage monster roaming the streets. Then someone was flying through the air, Valk barely jerking out of the way in time, and punching the monster in the face.
She hovered, a slightly befuddled look on her face, and stared down at him.
"I think they were trying," she said, becoming dimly aware of her communicator still ringing shrilly in her ear. Midas, had he said? The name was familiar, and so was the face, but she couldn't place him.
A tentacle lashed out behind her and wrapped around her waist. Valk gritted her teeth, dug her hands in past the ooze, and ripped it in half.
The monster shrieked and drew back with an offended air.
