Some citizens were running the other direction, while others stayed behind to wait for the gun man to leave. Once he was gone, people started to frantically reach for their cell phones to dial 911 and call for an ambulance. A man and a woman rushed up to the boy and the girls and asked if he was still breathing, if he was okay, etc. etc. They told the girls that an ambulance was on its way and to stay calm, noticing that one girl was in tears. Suddenly, during all the commotion, the faint sound of music could be heard. It was a soft song... A song that had never played before... It was, this song... (by the way I mean nothing by the song; it's just a soft song that I really enjoy lol) Tempo's whole body started to glow a faint white aura and made a rejuvenating sound as he started to breath again. Still incredibly weak, he was laying there struggling to open his eyes. Once he finally opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was her... He whispered very softly, "Why... Why are you helping me...?"

 The crowd swarmed all around the street like moths caught in a jar. Paniced, trying to figure out what to do. The man merely smiled as he made his way through the swarm. He loved panic, it made life a little less dull sometimes. What he loved even more was the scent of blood that hung on the wind. A few white moths fluttered seemingly from out of nowhere and glided towards the small group of people. They swam around them for a moment before gently resting beside the boy. One flew back into the crowd and back to the man while the others collected the blood that streamed around the concrete. He stopped and glanced at the moth, then back at the group. The boy was alive, a bit of a miracle considering the amount of blood that had spilled onto the ground.

"Move! Where did he go, did you see him leave? Which way?" Kitty harassed some of the surrounding group who had reached out to calm her down. She pushed and shoved her way to the back of the crowd and found nothing regarding the gun man. The surrounding citizens still seemed paraylzed in fear, and it was that simple fact why she recieved no answers.
She wiped her face and stood next to Tempo. When he spoke, she looked down at him, but with the other kneeling girl, she wasn't sure who he was speaking to.

The girl that was kneeling beside Tempo sighed and flopped her butt onto the ground. "He's ok!" she called back to her twin. The other girl glanced back to make sure that the man with the gun was gone, then rushed over to them. "You scared me." she said as she looked down at him. Her eyes suddenly caught something moving beside him and moved to see it better.
"Can you move?" the other girl asked, a bit concerned.
"Ew, they're drinking your blood." the other girl said, being a bit more occupied with the small butterfly looking things that were beside him.

The moths by the boy slowly turned red, then fluttered back into the crowd. The man held out his hand for them to fall onto, then closed his fingers around them. When he opened them, the moths were gone. He glanced back up at the small group for a moment, then over at another building not too far off. There was still a faint scent of blood drifting from the large boilding with a horn of some kind on it's sign. He needed to get there while it was still fresh. Dryed and old blood was just aweful to taste. He began walking through the crowd towards the building. He glanced at the group as he got closer to them, then stopped beside them for a moment, a bit curious about how this human was still alive.

The ambulance finally arrives and out comes the stretcher. People are still gathering around to check on Tempo but the police start to back them away. They kept the three girls around however assuming that they were his friends and so that he would have some sort of comfort.
The music was still playing and was still keeping him alive for the moment. Tempo could barely keep his eyes open and was only taking short breaths. Kitty didn't answer his question as to why she was still there helping him. There were two other red headed girls there too helping him and just figured they were concerned citizens.
They finally place him on the stretcher and ask the girls if they wanted to come with to the hospital in New York City to support him. Tempo looked at Kitty and said very faintly, "...I'm sorry... I'm sorry I wasn't able to control... My powers... If only... If only I had... A professor like yours... Who could teach me how to... Control them a lot better..." The paramedics signaled to the girls to board the van if they were going to come at all...

The two girls glanced at each other, then hopped into the van with him. He was the only one they kind of knew around . . . erm, wherever they were, and thought it best to stay with him. Maybe they could cheer him up while he was in the hospital.

The man watched as they loaded the boy onto the ambulance The boy mentioned something about his powers, and the man smirked a bit. He hadn't tasted anything different in his blood, but he obviously wasn't an ordinary human. He glanced at the building, then back at the boy. Well, perhaps he had time to help the boy get a second chance. He turned and started for the building, a few white moths began to flutter from him and towards the ambulance. He doubted the paramedics would let them land on his wounds, but if they were able to touch any open skin, they should be able to stop any internal bleeding.

"I don't blame you for what happened." Although Kitty could not empathize, she sympathized. She had an idea what it was like to have no control over one's powers, but not to his full extent. She climbed into the ambulance behind the twins and sat on the bench provided. "Just survive.. and I'll take you to the mansion myself."

After the last girl went in the ambulance truck, Tempo slowly shuts his eyes and goes unconcious once more. The sounds of the trucks sirens slowly fade as well as the sounds of the paramedics freaking out that he was fading away again yelling such terrifying things like 'oh my god we're losing him again' and so on...
When Tempo opened his eyes once more he found himself waking up in the hospital bed. The three girls were in the room and was probably waiting on him to wake up. He looked around a bit and it was just a plain hospital room. An IV was hooked up to him as well as the heart monitor. He also noticed that bandages were wrapped around his shirtless chest, where the bullets hit him before. He then decided to let them know he was up and feeling a little better by saying, "So you never answered my question... Why did you help me even after I attacked you...?"

Kitty had been more or less quiet the entire ride to the hospital and thereafter. There were times when she paced or left the room completely, but now that she was in the room she had moved her chair close to his bed and was bundled up in a blanket with the book she'd been originally reading and a peanut butter chocolate bar. "Well, there's more than one reason," she answered not looking away from the page for a minute. Once she had finished, she placed her bookmark and set the book in her lap. "Maybe if I wouldn't have assumed you were attacking me none of this would have happened." She looked back toward the twins and then at Tempo again. "And you seem to know a lot about me," Kitty said softly, "X-men have a soft spot for humanity."

 There was an alarm going off from an old building, indicating something had happened. there was a dark flash from it, and then the whole place crumbled. while the building went into ruin, there stood a girl in front of it, laughing menacingly. "now that one buildings nothing but rubble, tis time for me to make more trouble!" she giggled, finally deciding to make some rhymes with her destruction.Then she disappeared and reappeared by a hospital building. "oo! how pretty! " she said, not able to make a rhyme. she slowly walked inside, seeing people of all kinds. she smiled at the attention."Hello everyone who stays in here! i advice you leave, unless you want to be buried here" she then disappeared, and then reappeared in the same spot. but the door behind her had been thrown over to a few people, but JUST lucky enough to miss. then there came the screams of horror as everyone tried to leave, letting Tempest do her thing. she disappeared, and then reappeared in the gift shop, breaking vending machines and stalls. "im not finished with my fun! i want to see this building come undone!" she said, listening to the melody of screams and such. she felt like a child,
and she loved it. she then disappeared and reappeared on the next floor, going form room to room, scaring the people with her speed and agility. she laughed greatly as people screamed and left. "you wanna live? leave! or else the last thing you would do is scream!"

The man continued walking down the street, then stopped as something caught his ear. An alarm of some kind not too far off. There was a low rumble, and a building in the distance slowly crumbled behind the others. He stared at it for a moment, then turned and began heading for the building again. Screaming suddenly rang out from inside a hospital, and he turned to look at it. People had begun to run out of it, clearly in a terrible panic. He glanced back at the building, then back at the hospital. A meal or entertainment . . . what to do, what to do . . .

Tempest then went through door, knocking them off the hinges. "Bet no one can catch me! im the fastest there will ever be!" she sang as she grabbed things and threw them out of windows, scaring people who were in the same room and such. she was humming to herself and then zoomed through the halls, breaing anything in her path, lettnig the torment and chaos slowly emerge. "Can anyone stop me? ha! never to be!" she loved making rhymes out of nowhere, and even if people didnt like her rhymes, she would teach them a thing or two. she then jumped out of the window and ran down tha wall, the only thing keeping her balance was her feet and her arms dragging. she was breaking windows with everystep, and no one could even tell what happened. she flipped on the ground and stood tall. she took a deep breath in, hearing the breaking of windows, and the falling of glass. she let out a giggle and then viewed the destruction she had done so far. "ther seems to be a bore here.... wonder who else can appear." she said, wanting some kind of challenge or something. she was bored out of her mind, and she wanted more things to do.

He sat up out of the bed and turned towards Kitty. The blanket fell to the ground revealing that he was still in his old cloths, just no shirt but instead the bandages wrapped around his torso. He looked down and said, "So it looks like that guy did a number on me huh..." He then reached up touching his face, "And it seems you did a number on my face..." He chuckled a bit with a soft smile.
