Hey, where are you going? she asks with a gentle smile. You know, you might want to get your injury looked at.
Misha pauses thinking,
If someone does not say anything positive this will be a media circus… we have to stay upbeat despite the travails… damn it Tyrone… I am really beginning to dislike you.
Misha composes himself dusting off his trench coat, and pocketing his pistol, “How does my hair look, that good,” he fiddled with it some giving Jennifer a serious look, “time for me to do some damage control. If the public is going to trust us they have to believe that we had the situation in full control.”
“Oh and thanks for the concern, I think I broke a rib, or three, and having children may be an issue down the road,” he jokes with his trademark smile.
Misha makes his way back to the reporter as Tyron leaves.

"Tyroc," one says, microphone in hand, looking up to him as he floats over the huge body. "Can you describe what happened here? Would you consider Aegis' first mission to be a success?"
Calinon said:
"Let's see. Baltimore's downtown core trashed. American Freedom and most of Aegis need medical attention. Who knows how many victims lying in the rubble in far more serious need of medical attention," he says without a smile. "You're new to this reporting thing, right? Because if not, you just raised the bar on stupid questions, son. Now get back to the police line where you should be. We need to help with search and rescue here and where this monster took out his earlier anger," Tyroc finishes.
Misha stops the report with his smile and civil candor, although on the inside he was seething that he had to step in and try and play spin doctor. He speaks, “Excuse me, I just…” he turns to see Tyrone leaving, “you need excuse Tyroc he is very focused and he wants nothing but the best for the team, events didn’t unfold as well as we had planned, but like any plan it rarely survives first contact with the enemy.”
Misha becomes more relaxed playing off his own grievous injuries, “I think in the big picture this dry run was a worst case scenario that could have been disastrous. But Aegis and American Freedom rose to the challenge and we never gave up. This situation although far from a clean and perfect trial run, proves that we will defend the American people at any cost. I personally consider this mission a success, we won, but any fight will have casualties, even freedom as they say is not free.”
Misha pauses not wanting to sound long-winded, “But Tyroc has a huge responsibility, and the responsibility is larger then just winning. But that is Tyroc, he is the man we all want to be, and I hope you can excuse his words, we just put down one of the toughest elites I have ever seen. We are just a little stressed.”
Misha cracks his trademark smile, “I hope I answered your question.”
