New York City at night. Above all the noise, the confusion, the warm night air is soothing.
Up here, a young lady sits, troubled by many thoughts. Little does she know that her night is only beginning.

"Farewell."

"No! Leave me alone!"
A shout echos up from the street. It must have been luck that carried the voice so far up, sent in just the right direction to bounce up along the walls. Down below, a young woman is being chased by a darker figure. He appears to be armed... it is difficult to tell from up here, but it looks like a pipe, or something else of that nature.

"s**t..."
*looks for the fire escape*
*runs down it to street level*
"STOP! or else."
*puts her hand on her sword, and the other on her belt.*
Please let this end well.

"Woah..."
Suprised, the thug takes a couple steps back.
"Oh.. it's just a little girl."
You can hear that the young woman behind you has stopped running.
"Where'd you come from? You outta stay out of other people's business."
He advances. You can hear that the young woman behind you has stopped running. Roll initiative.

The bolas wrap around the thug quite gracefully, completely binding him. He falls to the ground, his weapon clanging nearby. He struggles, but is obviously quite stuck.

*sigh*
*takes out a pair of handcuffs*
*walks over to the thug*
"Those aren't designed for long term use, here let me change them for you."
*turns back to look at the victim*
"You, Ok?" ((Plus I am making a look over her too just in case.))

She runs over to you. It is just now that her age is dawning on you; she's only a year or two older than you. You also notice, as she steps into the light of a nearby lamp-post, her skin is tinted green. It identifies her obviously as a mutant, or something not-human, but it compliments with her light yellow hair to make her not entirely unattractive.
"Oh, thank you so much... you're one of the Protectors, aren't you? I've seen you in the papers..."
She seems excited to meet you, like a young fan getting to meet a pop music star.

"Wow... I heard a lot of the new members are mutants. Is that how you move so fast?"
Even though such a question would normally be asked in a negative, accusitory sense, you get a sense that a positive response will only make this girl happier.

"Yea... Its also why my hair is blue."
*pushes the guy over to the fire escape*
"Don't think of doing anything funny."
*Undoes one of the cuffs*
*hooks the thug to the fire escape*
"There."

The thug doesn't even try to struggle, at this point... he seems to have accepted his fate. The girl continues
"That's so cool... I wish I had a neat power like that."
She looks around.
"So, um, I guess you're off to save someone else, now?"
