[QUOTE="Rybaer, post: 1507400, member: 118"] Moose's Pub, Downtown, Coast City April 16 21:12 Granite returns to his normal form as he brings the injured man into the bar area. It's a quiet enough night that he can find an empty table to lay him upon. The boss takes in the story without comment and produces a first aid kit from behind the bar while one of the regulars offers to call the ambulance. Gauss and bandages are applied to staunch the bleeding. "Probably mafia thugs," the barkeep says. "Pretty brave of you to go walking up to them." He looks at Lawrence pointedly. "At least Thomas here doesn't have to worry too much about their guns." "There's a lot more to Lawrence than meets the eye," Gus says with a bit of a smile. One of the patrons calls out from another corner of the bar. "Hey, you guys gotta check this out!" He points to the television, where the image appears to be a shot from the inside of a large conference room of some sort. "They're saying that a handful of metahumans have taken over three hundred people hostage at the Hightower. Geez, that's like only two blocks from here." Gus glances at Thomas, then turns his gaze to Lawrence. "Metahuman criminals," he says. "Was only a matter of time, I guess. The police may not be equipped to handle this. At least some metahumans have demonstrated a willingness and ability to help others." He smiles and closes his eyes. [/QUOTE]
