Vincent was sitting in his room at the base listening to music while thinking (the song that was playing was "man or monster by sam tinnsez featuring zayden wolf).
On the otherside of the city
A young man is standing on a roof with a full face mask talking into a camcorder the words he was saying were to vent his feelings to the populace. Using everything he could to entertain the people and to feel a little bit better. He turned the camera as a woman ran passed chasing a criminal. He showed the whole fight as he turned the camera back to himself and chuckled
"my people this is your friendly city vex to give you, your daily dose of vexation signing off."
Back at the base
Vincent saw the upload of "vex" and decided to take the video and add a song to the background ( pretty lies by written by wolves) then replaced the original video he did all of this with a smile on his face ' sure you can be vex ,I guess ' he thought as he laughed then stood up to go face his bet with Mr.chambers.
As soon as he left the room Jesse was in front of him "you have to do something about this vex, he's causing nothing but trouble. He's angering the police which is fueling them to go after people who wear the mask,on top of causing the public outrage, towards the police. This vex guy is causing chaos" Jesse stated
" What would you like me to do about it , I have no idea who he is, there's also a thing called freedom of speech and freedom of press. How about this if I find him, I'll talk to him about what he's doing that's about all I can do, you know that, the rest is his decision." Vincent replied
After talking with Jesse a little more Vincent and Mr.chambers competed Vincent won by a small amount.
Leaving the base Vincent walked the streets of the city looking for an abandoned building or house to have his own place to continue on his project.
Walking through the city he saw some peaceful scenes, a little drug deals and packed streets. Taking everything in, he sighed deeply 'everything here is completely different then where I'm from.' His thoughts evident on his face as that cooling sensation hit him he couldn't even complain or feel even a little bit sad or angry.
Vincent stopped walking and watched the shuffle of the city. Thinking about what he should do, the two speedster were out of comission for now and he could use a little help within the city.
Deciding that he should put together a team being a hero wasn't his calling and their was no reason to steal, he was lost. He needed a new direction.
Vincent started walking again while feeling as though he was being watched 'I'm being followed.' He quickened his pace and ducked into a nearby building.
" so glad you decided to join me." a voice came from a nearby table as Vincent looked in the direction of the voice. He saw a woman with long black hair dressed in pink with green eyes.
Vincent turned around and started to walk when he was lifted up and brought towards her by two men and forced into a chair.
" ah yes, beautiful woman what is it that you would be looking for me?" Vincent said he felt overwhelming power resonating from the woman in front of him.
" I've been waiting for you since entering into this city. You're not particularly easy to get ahold of, I would like to invite you to study under me. Don't say no to quickly you have time to think it through." The woman said watching Vincent reaction.
She placed a object on the table " when you're ready come find me." After saying these words she stood up and left.
Vincent watched as she left out the door
'Nimue Inwudu/Madame Xanadu, huh interesting no description.' Vincent thought and started muttering about how he couldn't have just one normal day.
Vincent focused his attention to the object on the table there was no name above it was like the object didn't exist but it was in front of him shining brightly. Placing his hand on it everything faded.
Vincent found himself standing in the same spot he stopped at before, it felt like he just woken up from a dream, which didn't make too much sense to him.
Shaking his head trying to figure it out he's only ever been put in that type of state once before and that was just after his ability manifested.
Muttering to himself he felt his danger sense warning him as he ducked. A ball flying missed his head as a kid ran up " sorry mister" the kid said as he picked up the ball and ran back to his friends.
Shaking his head Vincent shrugged as he turned to leave back to the base when he spotted two men the same ones that he has seen just now that lifted him up.
Vincent did not fully understand what was going on but stood there rooted in spot as the two men approached once next to Vincent one spoke "the madam would like to see you." the same one started walking as the other said follow us.
Shrugging his shoulders Vincent wanted to see what this was all about following the the events of his dreamlike state happened slightly different he wasn't forced to sit down but just like before he didn't have a chance to talk.
The object still had no name or description and he couldn't place it into his inventory which he found intriguing so he placed it in his pocket.
Later that day
Vincent was at a restaurant looking out the window he watched as the sun started to set the pocket money he had from earlier was practically used up.
In this area he found exactly what he was looking for but he was no longer in new York.
Sitting in the restaurant he thought through what he experienced earlier, placing his hand in his pocket he felt the smooth surface of the object and for some reason it relaxed him.
Taking the stone out he flipped it around while examining it closely, it didn't seem special but it was warm, a gentle energy that he found comforting.
Placing the stone back in his pocket he pulled out his cellphone from his hoodie pocket that what it would look like to the people around but he mainly kept the cellphone in his inventory.
No messages or missing phone calls his day was actually pretty good, after paying for his meal he left going to the abandon building and checking to see if anyone else would be there.
Smiling as he found a place for himself ' Jersey isn't so bad.' As he remembered that when he first arrived it was In an alleyway in Jersey. Checking the time Vincent decided it was time to get back and go on patrol.
Before arriving at the base a car pulled up next to him as he was outside the Chambers residence, the car stopped and the window opened "you're Vincent right?" A raven haired brown eyed woman asked
" I am and if I'm not mistaken you're vanessa." He replied
" that's right , so are you like Jesse boyfriend or something?" Vanessa asked while checking him out.
Vincent thought about how he should answer that question because he was living in the base. Saw and flirted with her pretty much every day. Whatever he says would definitely get back to her.
Vincent decided to take the third option say nothing about whatever relationship he and her had.
Taking off his sunglasses he looked vanessa in the eyes.
Vanessa stared deeply into his eyes her cheeks become slightly red she felt her face becoming warm.
" Vincent! What are you doing?" Jesse yelled her question as she walked out of the door.
Placing his glasses back on he turned to look at her and instantly knew "going to a party?" Vincent redirected
"Yes, I would've told earlier but it just came up recently my dad's waiting for you." Jesse spoke fast then glanced at vanessa who was in the passenger seat and she noticed the look in her friend's eyes.
Jesse turned back to Vincent and kissed him
"I'll be back soon " she stated with a red face
Vincent was stuck on the spot then smirked as he watched her leave, sighing he walked to the backyard to see Mr.chambers waving him over.
" today you're not only patrolling, you'll be training and tracking " Mr.chambers said as they walked into the shed " the individual you'll be tracking is a known criminal , he is not your priority, this girl is her name
Lindsey Graham she's your priority." Mr.chambers said as they made their way to the command center while hand over a folder.
Vincent looked through the information "this is different. Who is she?" Vincent asked as the information appeared on the screen.
"As you can see the girl herself is unremarkable but her father is Scot Graham a local bioengineer whose been working on something top secret at Luthor corp.
After saving this girl you are going to still need to patrol, you'll have no one on comms, Jesse is going to a party to gather information about who she could've talked to. I will be going to talk with her father."
Mr.chambers stated as he looked at Vincent "your job is the most important,find her and bring her home." After that statement he turned around and left.
