Closed RP || Troubles in NY || River & Steve
5 years in New York, that’s how long she’s had. She’s been here since she was 10 and she’s been basically suffering ever since. But this? This wasn’t the kind of suffering she’s been dealing with. All she wanted to do was go out for some hot cocoa, and suddenly it was like a war, super villains everywhere and it was almost hilarious that she was one of the hostages taken. What are the odds that she was one of them? That was the last time she left the house between noon and 2PM on a Saturday.
The super villains attempted to be vicious, but mostly, they were just embarrassing, until someone was shot around the corner, the only signs of their death being the shot, the thump, and the blood. River wasn’t going to try and mess with the situation anymore and clenches her eyes shut as she pulls her knees to her chest, hoping that maybe, just maybe, this was a situation the Avengers would be called in on. The villains kept talking in hushed tones and pointing to her, and River thinks she heard something about child, minor, youngest, and knew she was a target among the rest. Oh, the joy in such a matter, note the sarcasm.
