Gage sat with his forehead resting against the brick wall outside Starbucks. They were gone. It was too late. He sighed, shook his head, and made back to the stolen motorcycle. Maybe he could check the police station, but somehow he doubted that they would still be there. Firestein had promised an adventure, and hadn't seemed willing to wait.
Then, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed someone. A man in dirty clothes and a purple beanie, sitting in the corner of the alley. Gage heart felt heavy. All he had wanted to do was help people like that man. And now? They had killed someone, left poor Tor to die in the snow, and brought a little girl back to her mother only to find that it was a doppelganger. Or was it? All of this made his head spin.
He was brought back to reality as the homeless man got to his feet. Immediately Gage's hand went to his pocket. He knew that he probably shouldn't give him straight cash, but maybe he could buy him a coffee or something. But did he really have time for this? He straightened up in resolutely. He would always have time for this. "Good morning, um... can I get you a coffee, or... um...."
But as the man neared, he didn't look to Gage's hand as he pulled out his wallet. Instead, he eyed his face. "You'e one of those do-good-ers aren't you?" He questioned.
Gage blinked, not quite sure of what to say.
