By the time Elijah had gotten to the bottom floor, he had wished he had jumped out a window. That would have saved him several minutes. People never moved out of his way fast enough and he had certainly bowled over a poor intern or two. Luckily, with all of the commotion and hearing the news report as he ran out, Elijah gathered the general direction Gamma-Burn was headed. Once he was outside, Elijah leapt into the air. Despite his clumsy flying, it was easier and faster than trying to push through an anxious crowd of people.

Elijah soared through the city air. He did his best to ignore the pointing and calls from the people below. He would never get entirely used to being recognized by so many people. His head buzzed with both bug wings and his roaring thoughts. [color=#ed6885][i]We can go back and talk to Li later. We can reschedule the interview. It’s fine. He’s not going to be upset with us if we reschedule– Why do we even care about him being upset?![/i][/color] Elijah let out a frustrated groan. He knew damn well he should he focusing on hunting Gamma Burn than whatever frustratingly homosexual thoughts had filled him.

When Elijah got to the scene, he froze in place. This… did not look like a dangerous scene. It just looked like… well. Flowers. Plants. There were very few buildings. Nobody was in danger. Hell, most of these looked like native plants. He was no plant person but the rather incessant buzzing of his insides told him the pollinators enjoyed the smell. Elijah landed and stared around at the so-called devastation. This… did not look all that bad actually… Plenty of food… It reminded Elijah of his conversation with Sorel and he could not help but smile a little.

[color=#ed6885][i]--Focus. Doing one thing does not make up for murder. Gamma Burn is still bad. You’re here to capture him, not fix this.[/i][/color]

Elijah strode forward through the field. He tried very hard to not show that he was avoiding stepping on the plants. It wasn’t easy given the sheer amount of them. He could not help but enjoy the smell of it. He blamed that distracting bliss on the infestation. Just as Elijah was about to do a flyby to try to find Gamma Burn, he spotted the villain. He had arrived behind Gamma Burn, though he doubted stealth would be his friend with the kind of noise he made just from walking. 

Elijah could not explain his hesitation. There was something familiar about Gamma Burn that he could not put his finger on. He chalked it all up to the annoying, buggy hesitation. [color=#9d9751]”Well, well, well. Gamma Burn! Just what do you think you’re doing?”[/color] Elijah put on his big super hero voice. It covered his hesitation, though his slowed movements were doing little to help his situation.
