«We Could be Heroes»

Tayn took a breath and decided she would go over and introduce herself. She walked past Gage and River.
"Hi, my name is Tayn" she said sticking her hand out in the strangers face.
The woman glanced at it, then to her, her short hair sliding away from her face. "I've got news for you." She said, then rolled her eyes at her own pun. "These people you rescued her from, they're not what they seem." Her voice was rough and low, but not angry.
Gage cocked his head. What? She refused to shake Tayn's hand, and now she was going to speak in riddles?
 
She did not flinch at Rex's heavy landing, but merely shifted her gaze. She smelled of cigarettes and hair spray. Gage glanced toward the others, "Have you seen her before?"

Tayn frowned and pursed her lips dropping her hand. "What are they then?" she asked willing to listen, but taking it all with a grain of salt.
 
Aero sat at table four, mute. He was pretty much tuned out of everybody's conversations and presence around him. Moments passed, and he didn't notice the others' absence until the group had comepletely dispersed. Aero groaned from frustration. Where is my mind at? Really? He didn't know where to go. Perhaps he should wait at the police station? That was his best bet. Aero walked out of the Starbucks building, and stretched out his wings as he prepared to ascend into the sky, but then remembered that they were torn. Giving a disappointed sigh, he hopped into his truck and drove to the police station. Once he arrrived, he shut his truck door behind him, and walked through the entrance of the building. He fiddled around nervously as he stood in the middle of the waiting room, watching out for any familiar faces but failed miserably. Maybe we weren't supposed to meet here until later today?...Well, better to be early than late... he went over to the corner of the room, leaned against the wall, and stood there awkwardly.

She smirked, then fingered the string on her hoodie. "He knows." She said, shooting a glance at Gage. "You checked those old comics out of the library, right? About a month ago?"

He took a step back. So this was the mother, or at least the person who had wrote the article. Or even just a reporter. "Um, yes." He managed to say.

The corners of her mouth turned up, "Then you know about Hydra." She said. It wasn't a question, she knew it.

The wingman nodded. "Captain America fought-"

"Wrong." She croaked.
 
The mechanical bell chimed as the bat boy entered, but the man at the front desk hardly seemed to notice, hunched over and scribbling something just out of view.
 
Tayn looked over to Gage completely confused. Comics?
(Ja. Says so in the first post.)
(I don't mind waiting if you want to wait for more people to be on Fanci)
(Well... I'd hate for everyone to miss out, but really, they all need to go to the po-po station, anyway. So just the three of us being at city hall is just fine.)
