When Ditch unmasked herself, Manny wasn't entirely surprised. He kind of called it which brought a hint of a smirk to his face. Just as she came down to engage the group more closely, yet another guy walked into the meeting.
What’s that...seven of us now?
Immediately following the latest arrival, something - or someone, rather - crashed through the wall behind Ditch and… into the stage.
Tank…
Manny looked at him with a raised eyebrow and chuckled to himself. Was he trying to level this place? It's a good thing they were in an abandoned area or that would have definitely drawn some attention.
Just as Manny was about to turn his attention back to Ditch, there was yet another late arrival. This time it was a young girl whom he recognized, but he didn't actually know her name. He'd almost jumped in to rescue her once, thinking she was about to get mugged (or worse), until she beat the ever-loving crap out of her attackers. The way she fought, he figured she was a super, so he let her handle her biz.
Before the words finished coming out of the girl's mouth, Manny noticed another person quietly slipping into the room. And just when he thought the group couldn't get any bigger, a figure dropped in through the ceiling a moment later. Manny immediately recognized Graffiti, who proceeded to tag the nearest wall.
And all I did was walk in…
As Tank was lifted from his tangle of wood and ragged cloth, Manny silently assessed the damage and prayed once again that the place didn't come crashing down. He looked around at the sheer number of people in the room.
Umbra must be a bad dude if we need this many people to try and take him down. I mean, he did manage to capture Suiren…
He once again turned his attention to Ditch, who seemed as though she was still waiting for people. There were already eleven of them. How many more could be coming?
