lilith rolled her eyes slightly as she listened to the man sitting next to her at the bar, he’s insisted on sitting with her despite all of the empty seats in the room. now he wouldn’t stop horribly flirting with her. “like i said twenty minutes ago, i’m really not interested.”

“you look exactly how i feel.” lilith said as she looked up at the man the was standing just to the left of her. “like you wan’t want to be here.” the red head said, her eyes scanning over the room that they were standing in. she wasn’t sure how she’d been convinced to go to some art show but here she was and she really didn’t know what she was looking at.

                     “sure i appreciate art –– but i also appreciate netflix and my couch.”

“just remember what i said caroline, make sure to book your next appointment with jillian.” lilith said with a soft smile as she said her goodbyes to her client. she was an addiction counsellor but she was slowly beginning to branch out into general counselling. 

the red head was about to turn around and walk back into her office when she saw the familiar face, stopping dead in her tracks. “dick.” lilith mumbled, her words just loud enough that he could have heard. she knew that moving back to star city she would see people she used to know, she just didn’t expect it to be this soon.

She wasn’t wrong, he was not really someone that got along well, with someone that was a villain, because he knew that they were the kind of people that rarely ever had any empathy. Maybe to someone that they were close to, but other than that, they liked hurting others, and that was something that he couldn’t understand, “You’re not really wrong, I would still take you to the hospital, though, because I wouldn’t want to let you die even if you were one of the bad guys.”

He was raised that way, so he wouldn’t be capable of just leaving the person to bleed to death, it was just against his nature, “Flying it is, hold on tight,” he flew above the ground, before using his super speed to fly faster. His arms wrapped tightly around her body, so he wouldn’t let her fall down, but at the same time, paying attention to what was ahead.

“thats because you’re a decent guy –– by the sounds of it anyway.” the red head said to him, watching him carefully, her eyes looking up into his. lilith didn’t trust people, especially not strangers but there was something about this man and the way he was selflessly helping her that made her feel safe. in liliths head she was one of the bad guys, what she had done in her past, she figured people would always see her as evil.

the woman nodded as her hand gently grabbed ahold of his arm. the girl couldn’t help but squeal when they first took off, the wind moving through her hair, her head pressed against his chest, too afraid to look around her, as if her looking would make them fall. “holy shit.” she spoke as she got used to the feeling.

a groan erupted from liliths throat as she looked at the power dampening cuffs that were currently wrapped around her wrists. this is what she gets for using her powers once, hell she didn’t even hurt the guy she just told him to keep walking. the humans that had put them on her were all standing in another room, she could only imagine they were discussing ways of torturing her.

“well this is fucking perfect.” she mumbled to herself, trying to slip out of the cuffs but nothing seemed to be working.

Joker didn’t give a fig about protests and he didn’t care about NOVA, but he’d never say no to stretching his legs for a good riot. He’d been down, positively morose, annoyed, bored…He’d been a great many things as he waited on the Bat to make a move. A real one. Those half hearted attempts at finding him were an insult and it left him Gloomy, capital G and all.

It was nothing a few well placed smoke bombs and fires couldn’t cure. The riots were kicking without him, but he wanted them to kick harder. Joker stalked through the street as thick green smoke rolled out of a broke store window behind him. It was a new toxin he’d been itching to try, filled with all kinds of goodies. Hallucinations, mostly, but people could do with a little more imagination!

lilith had heard about the joker. everyone in the damn world had pretty much heard about the joker but she never expected to actually ever see the man in person, well she hoped that she’d never have to but apparently the universe hates her. the red head took a breath when she saw the man walking out of the green smoke, something felt off about it so she immediately brought her jacket to cover her mouth and nose, she may not have been in it but she wasn’t going to take any risks. 

“was that really necessary?” she asked as she walked over to him. she was terrified but she’d dealt with people like him in the past. “what have you done?”

“I didn’t know you were in the city!” Kara smiled and then laughed softly, shrugged, and leaned back on one hand. “I guess that’s true. I’m just waiting for things to go wrong. They usually do.” Her mind drifted to the last time she watched a protest from above. It was the first time she met Anton. Officially, anyway. “When did you get here?”

“yeah ––– i went away for a while, needed some time to clear my head.” lilith said as she looked over at the woman. kara was one of the peoples memory that she didn’t erase herself from, she hadn’t had the time as she’d wanted to get away from star city as soon as possible. “it is star city after all, does anything really go right here?” the red head asked. “i’ve been back a couple of days now.”

“Maybe they should just rename the city to ‘Beacon’ something or other.” Conner remarked with a tiny smirk. “Well, things would’ve been a lot less stressful here if that stupid vigilante ban wasn’t in place and the heroes could just do their jobs without having to skirt around authorities more than they already had to.” Conner remarked. That was really the root of all of the City’s recent problems, it seemed. It all started with that ban; and NOVA was just a mask for it to wear. 

“Good,” He said quietly when she didn’t demand he abandon the rooftop in search of another. He was actually kind of comfortable laying where he was right now. “I’m Conner, by the way. May as well introduce myself to my new rooftop buddy.” He looked in her direction.

“beacon city, doesn’t have quite the same ring to it.” she said with a soft laugh as she leant against the barrier and looked over at him. “i don’t agree with the ban either but i don’t blame them, humans do stupid things when they’re scared and i’m pretty sure the number of powered people outweighs the number or normal folk in this city anyway, that can be pretty daunting.” lilith said to the other.

the red head looked down to where he was on the room before giving him a smile. “i’m lilith, it’s nice to meet you conner.”

“Hey, you don’t need to get an attitude with me. I’m just trying to help!” Miles responded with a small, audible groan. “I don’t go around causing bloodshed, so you don’t have to worry about that. I’m one of the good guys here.” He remarked. When she crossed her arms and answered his introduction with a explanation, he shook his head several times.

“Wait, wait, wait. No. You’ve got that entirely messed up.” The young man stated. “Spidey doesn’t go around hurting people!” He exclaimed. By now, the men webbed to the ground had stopped struggling and were laying there - casually listening to these two go back and forth. “I’ve trained under Spidey for years now. I know him. If someone’s trying to pin this chaos on him…” Miles back-flipped a couple of feet and attached a web to the corner of a building not far across the way from them, “…I have to make sure people know we are only here to help.”

“look around you, nothing will help, people are scared and are acting out, seeing someone flying around on webs isn’t going to help that.” she said to him as she shook her head. “there are no good guys and bad guys here, everyone is capable of being the other.” lilith stated clearly.

the red head rolled her eyes as she looked at him. “find a tv and watch the new dude, it’s everywhere, he just started attacking people.” the woman said as she watched him. “the people of this city are out for blood, our blood, this isnt the time to be a hero.”

Sometimes he forgot that his family and him, were in a way famous, a lot of people knew about the supers. They were kind of a celebrity, they looked out for them, even dressed like them sometimes, and like any celebrity, they also had haters, but at least when he put his suit off, he could try to have a somewhat normal life.

Differently from usual celebrities, that had to deal with their privacy being non existent anymore, he didn’t have to deal with that, “You have a good point,” he smiled at her, glad to know that she seemed to be on the good side, or maybe she was just a really good actress, “But I wouldn’t have blamed you if you had hurt him, he was attacking you after all,” he was glad she didn’t, but sometimes there was no other choice.

“Either flying, or running,” he figured that was a yes, so he just picked her up in his arms, they could get there fast too if he ran, as he also had super speed, ”There’s a first time for everything.”

“there is enough violence around here at the moment –– plus i’d rather not be the reason that someone got hurt, i think that if i was you and i would be having a much different conversation right now.” the red head said as she looked up at the man lilith had caused enough damage in the past few years, now she did everything she could to stay far far away from anything that would set her off again.

a small noise fell from liliths lips when the man scooped her up into his arms, her hand immediately coming to his chest to steady herself even though she was sure that she was perfectly safe in his arms. “anyone can run ––– lets fly.” she said softly, hell when would she get a chance to do this again?”

halfalienblood :

Things calm for longer than he expected, but deep down, he knew that something would happen sooner or later, that the peaceful protest, would turn into a violent one. Which was why he was prepared, it was one of the reasons why he didn’t let his guard down. He needed to be prepared if people started to get violent, and he was. The moment that people started attacking each other, he was flying around the city.

He was able to stop a few people from getting hurt. Some of them also tried to hurt him, but due to his invulnerability, they weren’t able to. He saw someone that seemed to be in trouble, and he was about to help her, but for some reason, the guy obeyed her, and stood up. It was not hard to guess that she had some kind of powers, otherwise the man wouldn’t have done what she said, “I was about to help you, but I guess that you had a little trick under your sleeve, huh?” he grinned at her, he wondered if she was one of the good guys, because if she was one of the villains, having someone that powerful around, was not a good thing.

Then he noticed, the red liquid on her neck, “You need me to give you a ride to the hospital?”

liliths head snapped around when she heard the voice, eyes widening slightly as she then looked down to the suit that he was in. the red head swallowed the lump in her throat before slowly bringing herself up to her feet. she knew of the many people that wore the kryptonian symbol of hope but she hadn’t seen it so close in person before.

“you could say that.” the red head said as she stood up, dusting off her jeans before touching the spot on her neck again, wincing slightly, for a moment she’d forgotten that it was there. “better having him walk away rather than hurting him, he was probably just scared, everyone is right now.” lilith knew that people acted out when they were scared, she’d seen it first hand many times.

“you mean like ––– fly us there?” she asked with a raised brow. “can’t say i’ve ever flown before.”

Conner glanced up at the woman, but returning to his laying position and just sighed some; propping his head up with one arm as he laid on his back. “I don’t really think that it is the City that is the problem.” Conner spoke after a couple of seconds. “Prejudice and fear. I think those would turn any place into a ball of tension. Star City was just the unlucky winner in this drawing.” He shrugged lightly.

“This your ‘spot’? I can find another rooftop if you need. There’s plenty to choose from here.” He stated with a slightly chuckle. He knew some people that would be very likely to have a ‘spot’ that they didn’t want anyone else to be in.

“this city is basically a beacon for all things weird and unnatural.” lilith said as she looked over at him. “it was only a matter of time before everything turned to shit.” the red head stated, leaning against the edge of the roof as she looked over it.

the woman shook her head as she faced him. “theres plenty of room up here for the both of us.” she said with a soft smile. “i only came up here for some air.”

Before the men could give him a straight answer, the voice of a woman called out to him - well, more like shouted at him as she stormed towards him. “Wait, I’m sorry, who are you?” Miles questioned, raising an eyebrow - the material of his mask mimicking the motion. He quickly shook his head - the hood of his jacket jostling, “Look I know that people get a little upset with us powered folk, but I’m only here to help. Do you know what’s going on? I just got back into town and was greeted to this.” He gestured around them, sighing some.

“I’m not going to get myself killed, okay? I’m pretty sure just showing here in this getup would do me in before the even noticed the webs. Look, I’ll even introduce myself - Arachnid.” He offered a red-fingered hand. “Someone planning on dying wouldn’t bother with names, right?” He questioned in a lighthearted tone.

lilith scoffed as she looked at him. “i’m someone that doesn’t want to see anymore bloodshed in this fucked up town.” the red head stated, her eyes trailing up and down the costume that he was currently wearing. “a little upset? people are scared not upset, you being here isn’t helping.”

the woman crossed her arms over her chest as she looked up at his face. “there was a protest in town then your boy spiderman started killing people.” lilith explained to him. “if anyone sees you, no matter your name, they’ll come for you.”

Buwan and his brother were never, ever truly apart from one another, even if they were physically. They held a connection like no other, so he felt comfortable enough to leave Araw on his own despite the escalated violence that surged through the city. The younger of the twins was more than capable of taking care of his own, even though Buwan did worry — still, they were both adults. They’d get over it.

The coming riot wasn’t something he expected to happen; but then again, he could never understand the blind hatred for people who were different. His father had showed that same prejudice towards their gods. It almost seemed as if this was something ingrained in human DNA, to hate and fear that which was different. Buwan found it disgusting.

He’d witnessed the altercation just down the street; unsure as to whether or not these were just two humans having a go, he hesitated. The twins were here for the X-Men, for mutantkind and those heroes that dealt with the same adversity. Humans? They were on their own. Araw may not share that sentiment, but last Buwan checked he wasn’t here at the moment.

However, just as quickly as the man in question had the other in their grasp, he turned away, releasing her. So, not so human after all. Buwan hadn’t been privy to what information she’d given him to let her go, but the instant that she fell to the ground below, the assaulter was flung into the bus stop on the other side of the street as if he were nothing but a ragdoll. Thankfully, the human body was mostly made out of water, which made working through the rioters a breeze.

Buwan made his way to the fallen woman and offered her a hand, his expression passive, though there was a sternness in his brows. “I can fix that for you,” he offered, eyes now on the blood that trickled down the length of her neck.

there were a number of things that lilith avoided these days. violence and other powered people were just on the top of the list. sure, perhaps a year ago it was the opposite, she thrived in the violence and on the chaos but she was a different person now.

she used to spend her days being someone puppet, hurting who they wanted, compelling who they needed, living entirely for someone else but she got to use her power so she didn’t really care at that point.

these days lilith was still living for everyone else, staying hidden and kept away so that others had a chance to live because she knew that if she were to go back to her old ways, there wouldn’t be many survivours.

as the man turned and walked away from her lilith turned her head, watching as the mans body was thrown into the bus stop across the street. the red head sighed before looking at his hand, taking it before standing up. “you know i let him go for a reason –– there is enough death and destruction in this town, i didn’t want to create any more.” she said to the man before looking down at the blood on her hand.

                                                            “how?”

lilith had been standing out the front of her apartment building, minding her own business when she saw the groups of people come barrelling down the streets. a riot had begun, something she wasn’t too shocked by, they weren’t the most uncommon thing in star city. the red head watched as the people ran past her, sighing as she turned to walk back inside her building.

as her back was turned to the crowd for a split second lilith felt someone grab a hold of her, a sharp object being held towards her throat. she took a deep and shaky breath as she tried to stay calm. “please ––– just let me go.” she stated quietly but the man didn’t budge and the girl could feel the blade pressing into her skin, red liquid trickling down her neck. 

lilith hated using her powers but in situations like this, she would allow it. the woman placed her hand on the mans arm, her eyes flashing back as she spoke. “you’re going to let me go, then you’ll turn around and walk away, you’re going to keep walking and you’re not going to stop until you can’t walk any further.” the telepath commanded before her eyes flickered back to their natural shade of green. once her compulsion had worked the man let her go, causing lilith to fall on the floor, her hand immediately coming to her neck. 

she was bleeding but thankfully it was nothing a couple of stitches couldn’t fix.
