Harry didn't particularly like the cloaked figure. Attempting telepathic magic on someone you just met, then going on to use it on other things when that didn't work out, didn't exactly make the best impression. "Stars and stones, it's like nobody's even heard of the Laws of Magic anymore. Forzare!" The last word was directed at the turtles; Harry created a sphere of energy, a task he found paradoxically easier here than forcibly shoving someone with raw spell power. Using the staff in his left hand to direct it, he set about slamming turtles into other turtles and knocking the smooth shells all over the place. [b]"Flash, huh? How're you doing that without snapping your own bones in half? Moving like that, I mean. That's a lot of detail work there. Not to mention getting electricity to behave for you."
Enhancing one's own physical capabilities was a risky proposition; you had to get every single detail exactly right, or the repercussions would be severe; enhancing muscle strength without bone strength, for instance, would snap the bones. Adding bone reinforcement to the spell increased its energy consumption, and the added weight played havoc with motor control. Everything you changed would affect something else, and, so far as Harry knew, nobody was specialized enough to attempt something as complex as super speed with magic. That, and if he were specialized enough to do it, how would he generate and control electricity like that? Thoughts like that ran through the wizard's head as made sure that Flash and Vibe were behind him. Having friendly space behind meant that he could focus on slinging turtles around.
As Vibe retreated to a rock they'd cleared out of the sea of Koopas, Harry yelled a question to Flash over the din of the fight. "So, don't suppose you know where Darkseid is?" Another downward swipe of his staff, another turtle retreating into its black shell. He swung the focus like a tennis racket and batted the thing off into its fellows. "This is the closest I've gotten. I don't much care for mind control magic. Might need to teach him something."
