George Takei is President!?

<Snipped quote by King Kindred>

Danny already has Caty's number. :P Unless you meant Danny gives Luke his number. In which case Danny never expected to be giving a guy his number today. xD

@Crimson Flame

Yeah, I meant be gives Luke his number since they're with each other at the moment.

After today Danny will learn to expect the unexpected.

Young Avengers

Before all the chaos and separation happens Caty could give Samira her number just in case "Anything happens, you start experiencing changes you can't control, or you just need help."

Same for Danny and Luke if they get separated. That way it'd also make it easier for them to reconnect or assemble for help.

Young Avengers

Personally I don't have a problem with the post but my character isn't getting moved much. I'm just waiting for Sincerely to post before I post again.

Young Avengers

I figured the team wouldn't form until at least the next day. With SHIELD presence in the city and the scientists framing the interns for the whole shebang. Effectively making them fugitives until they can Avenge the people and clear their names.

Young Avengers

Sorry about that. Would've posted sooner, but the last two days kind of got away from me.

Samira. It was a beautiful name, but she'd hold that thought for the moment. Caty looked her up and down taking in everything she could. She noticed the blood on her hands and the crack in her voice at the mention of her father. Without Samira needing to explain she pieced it together. Her father was dead and he had died here in this park. She looked back at the franticness and chaos emanating from the park. Others were experiencing the same thing. Their friends and loved ones dying horrible deaths in a moment where everyone was in a celebratory mood. She'd never be able to forgive Dr. Sterns and the other for this.

Caty stood up and fully turned to face Samira. She wanted her to know that she was focused on her and not giving her, her divided attention or partially shrugging her off. "That mist that enveloped the park? It's the culmination of decades of research, developments, and experimentation based on the original Super Soldier serum of the 1940's. Yeah, it was real. Kind of shocked me too. My brother and my friend, David, here are interns at the lab where the latest research was being done. The purpose and the problem? It's meant to spark genetic mutations in individuals to make them 'super', except the mutation isn't guaranteed and it leaves people... like that." She repeated the same gesture that Samira did to display those seizing or already collapsed in death. "We spied on our mentor and discovered that he and a few other scientists slipped a few crystallized chunks of the formula into the fireworks after it was denied for human testing. We got here as fast as we could but it was too late. Too many people died, including your father, and they didn't have to."

Caty was angry, frustrated, sad, and confused, but she had to hold herself together. She couldn't break down in front of them. This wasn't over and the chaos didn't seem to be dying. Their lives and the world would forever be changed after this and it was a lot to take on all at once. Although she may have seemed calmed and stoic on the outside she was crying and screaming internally.

Funnily enough, I already intended on having her have a crush on Luke. Who knows whether it’ll stick if he eventually becomes the leader/in charge of her, lol.

Honestly, though, she’s probably going to end up crushing on like the entire team at some point or another. It can’t be helped, having a girl like her on a team full of attractive, older heroes.

@RenegadeRunaway

This is exactly how Caty will feel about the beautiful badass women on the team. Like how can she not?

Young Avengers

Yeah. I had to google average size for an athletic woman of Caty's age and height when making her.

Also I have posted and Caty's already starting to feel the pressure of leadership.

Caty was caught slightly off guard by the wound on David's face. She wasn't sure if he was aware of it or not. She didn't turn away from the or him. "Oh David..." She started to reach for his cheek when they were interrupted by someone coming up behind her. She turned to face her and noticed the clear distress on her face. She thankfully seemed to be fine and unaffected by the gas for now. She was likely confused and remembered her from her abrupt onstage announcement. Caty was relieved that people had at least paid attention to her warning. She just wished more had been able to get out in time.

"Are you okay? You probably heard it earlier, but I'm Catherine. What's yo---" She was cut off by a particular ding from her phone. A special alert she set up for her brother's text messages. "I'm sorry. It's my brother. I have to check this." Caty's eyes scanned the message and her eyes both widened with shock and lit up with intrigue at the second to last sentence. She mentally chastised herself for getting even the least bit excited in a situation like this, but she couldn't quite calm her inner scientist.

She opened her brother's contact and called him via FaceTime. She spoke as soon as he answered the phone. "Okay, Danny. I'm going to need you to listen to me. Get him to look down at the ground. I'm not sure what his eyes are now capable of doing, but we don't need anyone else getting hurt in case it goes off. The mist's mutation must already be taking effect. It's likely linked to his flight or fight response. He's freaking out and I don't blame him, but I need you to get him to calm down but for him to be calm you have to be calm too. You can do this Danny, but I'll leave the call on."

So much seemed to be happening all at once. Scores of people were dying, others mutating, and David needed medical attention immediately and for the first time in her life she was in a situation where she wasn't completely in control. In her slight spiral she had almost forgotten the girl standing there. "I'm sorry again. Your name?"

Young Avengers

Yeah. All you really need is a reason to be at the park when everything goes down.
