Karol just had gotten a hint by Pecunia, the implant had sent the pager of Karol a notice of death. It was probably too late to get there, but she had some intel by Hungry (he was currently imprisoned and constantly interrogated) that the plot had move into its last state.
She would need to find the 7 patriarchs and kill them to win - but if the enemy destroyed all 4G towers before that, they would win.
Until then protecting her KZ and the 4G towers would be of greatest importance, so she positioned Karol doubles at strategic areas. Mr. Nice and Walther Dismay had already been dealt with, so one of the most powerful was already gone. The problem would definitely be Bacterium Joshua, the rest would be a childs play if found. Karols muscles bulged as she got another message on her pager. One of her doubles had just been taken out.
Who dared? Who did leak her plan? How did they find out? Could there be an imposter among the Stacy? What were these incompetent people doing?
Could this be the doing of Joshua? It was now confirmed, it was Rogvall Man Donvall, that red haired clown freak. One of the weakpoints of her current ultimate matriarch form was, that it offered no fast travel ability. "Brenda, beam me to the incident.", Karol ordered Brenda, her personal assistant and strategic asset. Her soul manifested as a gaping maw on the ground into which Karol fell and as a maw at ther desired location, where she then fell out from. It was an unpleasant and slippery way to travel, costing a lot of nerves - but it was nearly instantly.

Rogvall pressed the trigger and a bullet made from pure homeopathy shot at Karol. She wasn't able to react in time, but Brenda had opend a maw into the air in front of her leader, through which the bullet traveled. Brenda went up in flames from the homeopathy as the bullet grazed her soul and turned into a pile of smouldering ashes.
"Throw away your gun.", Karol ordered, but Rogvall had deafened himself and wasn't able to read lips. Rogvall Man Donvall reloaded his sniper rifle with another of his sure kill homeopathy bullets and Karol gave up on the ultimate Matriarchy form in order to take on her own clownlike form - Chi fission.
Glowing green symbols appeared around her, warping reality in a destructive, seperating manner. The bullet curved into one of the symbols where they annihilated each other, missing Karol. Rogvall knew that it was his time to go - his weapon had been successfully countered and he would have to leave with haste.
The AMerryCan Clown sat down in a lotus seat and then floated away by veggionically emulating the floating capabilities of the lotus.
Karol pulled out the gun that her form had come with and took a shot, but it was meant to kill old men in short range, so it did not work. Frustrated the woman reverted to ultimate matriarch form. She was impossible to beat by a man theoretically, but what she currently needed was both that and mobility. Brenda had been a great loss, she would have to consult her think tank on how to proceed next. With teeth gnashing, she called the Stacy intelligence headquarters.
