[h1][color=red][center]Alex[/center][/color][/h1] Alex cut the wrapping from the muffin skillfully and examined it briefly before turning his attention to the women. Seriously, he must be some sort of trouble magnet with all that was going on. He opened his mouth to reply but was cut off by Arthur transforming and literally kicking the girl through a portal, using the same stunning trick that he´d done earlier on Alex. But this time he wasn´t using the trick to cover up his attempt to help, quite the opposite in fact. [color=red]¨H-hey!¨[/color] Alex cried out in surprise and leapt after the girl before the portal vanished. He had no idea where it led to but he felt a strange need to make sure the girl was alright. Just as the portal grabbed him he turned around and stared at Arthur, had... Had he just talked? Then Arthur´s new form vanished and he turned away. Any further consideration in that line of thought left as he went through the bewildering sensations and colors of the portal. Due to his confusion and his turned around body it was quite likely that he would collide with the girl upon exit, though naturally he didn´t know that. [center][color=silver][h1]Artemis[/h1][/color][/center] Aretemis noted the objections to her argument. Insubstantial. [color=silver]"Hide and pretend everything is normal?"[/color] She asked skeptically. [color=silver]"Isn't that what people always do? Crime, drugs, alcohol, abuse, miscarriages of justice, slavery, environmental destruction? These are things that people hide from and pretend everything is normal for. If you think that you can change this, for the better, then I think you're wrong. Of course I doubt that'll stop anyone who feels that way from trying."[/color] Artemis merely tipped her head towards Sam acknowledging her presence. [color=silver]"While Sam certainly could've caused destruction if she felt so inclined the situation would have been dealt with as it always is and that status quo returns. Still I acknowledge that those more inclined towards malicious actions could cause considerable damage with these gifts."[/color] Especially those who didn't go the brute force route. She was going to say more the one named Moritz spoke. After his short speech he seemed fixated by one his purple portals. To Artemis it was simply shadows and vague shapes another fact to note, she was rather surprised by Mortiz's violent reaction. It was only the void. [color=silver]"Reacting so suddenly to stimulus generally has rather adverse effects, please try to restrain yourself in the future."[/color] Artemis said calmly to the quivering man. Then she turned back to Liam. [color=silver]"So then do you have a particular idea in mind for tracking and keeping in check these bloodthirsty champions?"[/color]
