Alex knew he screwed up now. He got sparrow captured. He didn't mean to get him captured. It was just a honest reaction to seeing one of his favorite superhero. He shouldn't have said anything to be honest. Luckily he knew where they were going. However he didn't really know where it was. It was only his first day in Gamma. He decided he would explore the city more from now on. He rushed back to the orphanage he didn't bother entering from the front door. He jumped up the fire escape and entered through his window.
When he got to his room it was trashed. His mattress was flipped his pillow was on the floor and stomped on with muddy foot prints on it. his desk was on its side. He knew it was probably Theo who did it. However he didn't care. He came because he left his knifes in the ceiling here. He didn't think of putting them in his inventory since he wasn't used to it. His superhero costume was automatically put away any time he took it off. However he knew he would probably need to deal some damage. This guy was literally shooting fire out of his hands. He could also fly and release fire waves from his body. He remember a little about this guy. He knew he was like a pyrotechnics major. He turned into a meta-human from when he had a accident with pryrotechnic chemicals. It scarred his body and turned him into a meta-human. He started his life of crime working for the Gamma Mob. He wondered who was in charge of the mob at this point. Probably The Roman. He was Vincent Fallyon son. Alex had no idea if Firebird was even still working with the mob either. He was more of a hired gun then a actually mob member. He would scout out the location anyway to see what would happen.
He got suited up. And jumped out the window onto the fire escape. Luckily even though it was day time as the orphanage was next to the river. So fog and the cloudy weather of Gamma made it hard to see more the twenty feet ahead of yourself. However his mask made it much easier to see through the fog and smog of the city. First he decided to find someone doing crime and interrogate them about the location of the warehouse.
He used his light step movement skill and walked off the fire escape and into the sky. While it wasn't really flying it was still really cool. After searching for about 40 minutes he found a lone criminal that was robbing a gas station. He entered through the doors. The robber who was facing towards the register with his back towards the door. He whipped around and pointed his gun at Alex. However Alex hit his gun hand into the air. The gun shot off into the ceiling make a deafening boom two feet from his head. Alex used the blunt end of his daggers to smack the guy across his face. He instantly collapsed with blood dripping out of where he hit. Alex also realized he should switch out his daggers to small batons. That way he wouldn't have to hesitate and attack with a blunt end. He would also keep the dagger Incase he had to kill. However he would try to avoid that.
Not even look at the clerk that was staring at him in surprise he just grabbed the robber and dragged him out of the store and into the air. He dropped on the roof of a close by building. It was very lucky that most of these buildings had a flat roof. The robber woke up from the slight fall into the roof.
"Groan" the robber rubbed his head in confusion with his eyes glazed over "Where am I?" His eyes slowly unglazed and straightened up. He looked around in suspicion. He instantly noticed Alex standing about 15 feet away looking at him. He could only see his shroud in the fog and smog. Making him seem much more mature and mysterious then he really was. The eyes of his suit shone like a white beacon standing out as the only thing in the fog. The robber got goosebumps from the way this thing was staring at him.
"Wh...what do you want from me you creep"
"I want information about the nitroglycerin warehouse location"
"What? It on the south side of the city next where the about 10 blocks that way" he says as he points in a direction.
Not really knowing if he's telling the truth or not. But realizing he didn't really have a choice but believe him. He walked out of the fog and said coldly " I don't trust you so your coming with". Not giving the guy a chance to refuse he picked him like a sack of potatoes and threw him in his shoulder. Then he jumped off the roof. The man on his shoulder let out a little scream.
He then realized this man was walking on air and got even more scared of him. He was a meta-human a freak. Before he was just worried about dying but what if he infected him. Would he also turn into a freak. He had a family to feed. His wife and son would abandon him if he turned into one of these freaks. Ever since Staarz labs exploded 5 years ago these freaks have been popping up like mushrooms. They were worse the the mob in Gamma. They would burn down house free water ways. Then you got ones like this one that pretend to be heros but really just caused massive property damage. His family had to move out of his house he spent his life savings on. He had to go to a life of crime. All because a human lizard and a man dressed as a Owl came crashing through his walls. His youngest daughter ended up in the hospital. Luckily the Waylon corporation paid for the hospital bill. All because Bruce Waylon decided to visit the hospital and pay for everyone. That bat freak that claimed to be a hero didn't care about the real civilians. He was a menace. As he was thinking this and pointing the way for Alex. They finally reached the warehouse. Alex put the guy down and told him to get lost. The robber flipped him off and ran away while murmuring something about fake heros.
