Silver saw motion in the corner of her eye and spotted M.I.A. and Plague flying hand-in-hand down from a tall building, out of a broken window. Her mind went blank with terror for a moment. What the hell are those two doing together? She sprang into the air and flew as fast as she could towards the building, trying to stay out of there line of sight. She quickly covered the city in a dense fog to hide her swift movements. As she stayed suspended in the air, she took a peak into the building and saw a man grasping a lifeless, bloody body in his arms, screaming out in horror.

noracerberus14 xXBisexual FlanXx noracerberus14 Kikyo nodded, and followed Alex across the street. She was still looking around at the houses and buildings around her, and the cars only made it worse. She had wide eyes, like a child at a candy store, and she was taking in everything. She even saw somebody wave at them.
"Alex, what does that mean?" she asked, meaning the wave.
When they reached the apartment building, Alex sighed. "Finally. We're here. I'm beat." She considered going through the rotating door, then thought better of it. If they weren't in the same pocket, Kikyo might get stuck in there. She entered via normal door and held it for her friend. "So, stairs or elevator?" Remembering the girl's cluelessness, she added, "Stairs are like elevated steps, and an elevator is a box that you go up and downstairs in."
"Why would people willingly trap themselves in a box?" Kikyo asked, trying to wrap her head around the concept of the elevator. She looked at Alex with her head tilted slightly, and her green eyes looked confused.

Kikyo shrugged.
"You pick, because I'm not sure which could be worse..." she said, as she took a fistful of hair and wrung some of the water out. The drops splashed to the ground silently, and made a small puddle under her hands and hair.

Plague was decidedly unimpressed by the jump. He landed and bent down so more of his body would absorb the force of the landing to reduce pain. Plague stood up straight and looked down at her hand that was gripping his, he could have killed Mia right then and there. But he didn't, "Just a day in your busy life I assume?" he chuckled.

Silver cleared the fog and zoomed down to the ground and planted her feet firmly before locking eyes with Plague. "Back to your old ways so soon Plague?" she asked him, her eyes burning into his and her heart fluttering with nervousness, what was Mia doing there?

"I guess we'll take the elevator, I'm feeling lazy today. Hey, don't do that. When we get to the apartment, I'll give you a towel, OK?" Alex wiped some blood away from her nose, waved to the young woman at the desk, who waved back, then led Kikyo to the elevator. She pushed the up arrow(it was the only button), and stood for a few moments, staring at the little green numbers above the steel doors drop from 14(where it must have been left) to 1. It binged, finally, and the doors slid open. Worried that she might slow down, Alex took Kikyo's hand and tugged her into the carpeted box, where she pressed the '9' button. The doors slid shut, and there was the faint queasy feeling that came from riding in an elevator.
Alex leaned against one of the handrails. "So, why don't you know all this stuff? Not saying you're stupid, just...most of the stuff you ask me about is pretty common knowledge. Where are you from?"

Kikyo blinked a few times.
"I...don't know...I've been at my home since I was born. I never set foot out until today..." she looked up at Alex for a moment, before continuing. "My parents kept me in there, telling me that the world was too dangerous. I have read books, but I could never experience any of it..." she felt a little like a weakling spilling this all out to Alex.

Plague raised his hands in surrender, "Believe it or not, I didn't kill anyone in there. I'm squeaky clean for the day, if you're looking for a killer, talk to the sword wielding maniac here. I just watched her do it. Promise." he chuckled, putting his hands back down and smirking under his mask.

Silver stared at the two in horror. She quickly drew her sword and held it steady in her steal grip, tensing her arm for battle. "Why should I believe a fiend like you? Silver said with a fake tone of confidence, she was pretty close to believing him as she stole a glance at Mia before returning her stare to Plague.

Mark turned his head towards that panther, " Dark Matter, get out of here, I already got to this one " Mark was pretty andgry that another villain was here. Mark turned his sword to the bankers who stopped momentarily filling that bags, " Keep on filling them up " he demanded. " Only a few more minutes and then I am out " Mark thought about how easy this was, ignoring the police sirens in the distance.
(( You did step into the smoke-filled bank right? ))

"So...do you like it at your home? You're not, like, trapped or anything, are you? 'Cos if you are, you can just stay at our place. I'm sure my mom won't mind. And I could educate you. The world really isn't that dangerous. It is dangerous, yeah, but not so much that you should stay hidden under a rock, waiting for something to finish you off." Alex smiled at Kikyo. She felt something warm coming from this girl.
Her warm and fuzzy feeling was cut off when the bing sounded, indicating that they'd reached their floor. Alex, feeling an older sister protective vibe towards Kikyo, took her hand and tugged her out again, directing herself towards her apartment. She reached for her key chain on her bag and unlocked the door. She pushed it open to reveal the five-room apartment. "Well, it's not much, but it's home. For me, anyway. And for you, if you want it. Geez, I'm beat." She dropped her bag on a chair, then unzipped her hoodie and hung it up. She took a tissue from the box in the kitchen and held it on her nose.
((Yeah, I gotta get off for a while. I'll be back at some point, promise! ^^))

Kikyo was starting to consider if she was really trapped. She opened her mouth, then shut it. She wasn't sure, because she had never really tried to leave until today.
She looked around Alex's apartment, and was in awe. Kikyo was amazed that the walls weren't cut from stone, and there were actual windows. She could see outside them, and even watch what was going on. A small smile flashed on her face for a few seconds, as she took the apartment in.

 "Because what he says is the truth," Mia interjected as she let go of Plague's wrist to step in between them. "I killed one of the ******** that sell cigarettes and kill millions for their profession. It's obvious that one death for millions is the obvious choice," she stated, defending her heroic views to Silver.

Silver looked deep into Mia's eyes and tried to feel something, but all she found was extreme coldness. "Mia, you're no better than any other killer if you murder." Silver sighed, the world was too corupt to deal with. "Being a super-being doesn't put you above the law." She took a look back up at the shattered window and thought of the dead man's family, how would they take the news?
