Chapter 8 by BlindSeer BlindSeer

Call Handled

The Suspicious Patron

Noon comes and goes and worth it, lunch time, Kricket runs off to some local pizza shop, a family run joint that’s been around sense you’ve started your hero career.

Falchion and Kicks head to lunch together, using separate cars to keep up the act, whatever, less paperwork for you if they wanna keep their secret.

Fortune brought a lunch from home, wanting to limit the amount of travel she partakes in, presumably to limit the possibility of cars crashing into her.

And finally Rook who sits in the mess hall, smiling to himself as he shovels instant mash and microwaved salisbury steak into his mouth.

Afterwards, upon finishing your own meal a calls comes in, a waitress at a diner down by the docks has reported the sighting of a supervillain, he sits in the corner, keeping his head down as though he’s trying to hide.

The waitress can’t remember his name but she swears that she’s seen him on the news before.

Supervillains may be common but without knowing who they actually are, it’s nigh impossible to send the right person for the job.

However, the waitress was certainly a bit suspect, this very well may be a case of mistaken identity or worse, a blatant attempt to waste hero resources.

But if not? If he really is a supervillain, trying to lay low? Then whatever he does once he slips through the cracks rests squarely on your shoulders, because you got the call and ignored it.

You could send Kricket; If they try to make a getaway he’s liable to keep up with them, so long as they aren’t a speedster.

You could send Little Ms Fortune; So long as they aren’t a mystic or a wizard she’ll be able to lock them pen them in.

You could send Kicks; She’s good at negotiation, and if all else fails, she could evacuate the area, ensuring civilians stay unharmed.

You could send Falchion; If the suspects already fled, he’ll likely be able to track him down.

You could send Rook; He’s nearly guaranteed the victory but you can believe that there’s gonna be a fight.

What Do You Do?
