His flight was by far his favorite ability while in his empowered state. Cutting through the air had become a hobby of his. Sometimes he would still hit things while he was moving swiftly but normally he managed to dodge most large things like hawks and falcons and such. He decided it was time to go and visit his home, he had been gone nearly all day, and he figured he was probably somewhere over Nevada coming from the western coast. Thunder accelerated his flight approaching the sound barrier rapidly. This was the fun part, he increased his altitude exiting the atmosphere and breaking the sound barrier to shorten up his flight time. Upon re-entering the earth's atmosphere Thunder landed atop a tall building and stood there surveying the area. He had done it all, in the course of the day, he stopped seven robberies, two mad scientists using androids to attempt to take over cities, and one particularly strong genetic experiment he came across in South America.
The people of this world had no idea just how dangerous it could be. As he stood there looking he spotted a mugging in process. Some group of thugs had surrounded a defenseless young lady and planned to do who knows what with her. Thunder immediately flew down and looked at them all as they turned around in awe of him. He waited until one of them pulled a knife and rushed him, however Thunder did not take any evasive action to stop the strike, instead his body caused the knife to bend and eventually snap before Thunder smiled and threw a blistering straight punch catching the guy in the face causing him to fly backwards and into his cohorts. The rest looked at the pile of their buddies and then glanced up at Thunder who had already moved to one of them taking him by the shirt and slamming him into the wall. By now the remainder of the group had caught the message and began to scurry down the alleyway. Perhaps he had overdone it?
The young woman looked at him and began to smile as he walked her way. ''Hey, how ya doin? They did not hurt you did they?'', he asked looking her over once or twice. ''You shouldn't be out this late at night all alone, don't you know the streets are unforgiving, you're lucky I was around'', he said directing for her to follow him out of the alley. As he began walking forward he was hit in the back of the head and sent flying out into the street crashing into a truck and ultimately being stopped by a light post that was bent out of shape terribly.
Thunder arose and turned around to see immediately that the girl he was so called ''protecting'' had turned into a giant snarling monstrosity. No doubt some sort of genetic experiment, he should've just let her deal with the thugs on her own. But they would undoubtedly be dead as a result. Thunder, at this point upset, flies at the creature at blinding speeds and throws a punch with all of his might aimed to send it up into the air. After the creature had been launched airborne, Thunder takes flight at the speed of sound causing the ground where he was standing to break, as he reached the creature he continues to speed up catching it and taking it up above the atmosphere and hurling it towards the sun. It'd reach, and if nothing else burn up from proximity.
One thing about his abilities, he could come up with a plan of attack in an instant, more or less he would at least be able to land a strike on his opponent. He took his descent back to the ground slowly, and rubbed the back of his head. It had gotten him with a pretty good punch, nothing too serious, but he could tell it had some sort of enhanced strength, thank goodness for his superhuman physiology.
