Velocity quickly retrieves the unconscious vampire from the store down the alley as the police cordon off the area.
“Call the STAR Squad in, looks like we’re going to need them.” Sgt. Blake orders one of the officers. The officers take charge of the “vampires” asking each of you to stay near so they can take your statements. Warlock, using illusions, sneaks back into the club to reappear as the owner.
It takes only a few minutes for the detectives, forensics, coroner and STAR Squad to arrive. An officer of the STAR Squad approaches the group. “I assume you are the ones who fought these paranormals? Can you tell us what abilities they appeared to have?” The STAR Squad is professional if somewhat brisk in questioning you. One officer takes your names and statements as others, using special shackles, take the “vampires” away.
After the police are done with you the paramedics ask if any of you require medical treatment. Taking you to the ambulance they patch up any wounds suggesting that you should go to the hospital and see a doctor, but they don’t press the issue.
After what seems like hours you notice the police lead the hysterical woman that ran from the restroom out of the club and into the ambulance. They also bring out the dead woman’s body in a body bag and load her into the coroner’s wagon. Nearby you see Merrick Masters (Warlock) speaking with a detective. He looks upset but resigned as he is informed that the club, being a crime scene, will have to stay closed for at least a couple of days.
The excitement over the crowd begins to thin out when Leech notices a man behind the police line trying to get Velocity’s attention. He is waving his arms and calling out. “Excuse me sir, Sir!” The man is of medium build with dark hair, he is sharply dressed in a business suit.
OOC: I assume that you all stuck around, if anyone leaves or if there is anything special you wish to add to your statements let me know. I’m sort of rushing through this part to try and get the game back on track. The combat, which was just an introduction to get you together, took longer then I thought.

After having his wounds patched and giving a statement to the police, Velocity is ready to go home.
Turning around and spotting the man calling to him, Velocity runs over to him using super speed. As a writer Jack Dolan was not really a publicity hound, happy to churn out novels and remain quietly inside the walls of his house. As Velocity however, Jack figured that a little publicity was a good thing. Using his powers to move to a man that was probably not more than twenty or thirty feet away was a blatant show of ability, mostly for the cameras and reporters that were present.
"What is it I can do for you, sir?" Jack asks the man.
OOC: Did the paramedics actually heal any of the lethal wounds?

OOC: Toric, the treatment from the paramedic does not heal lethal damage. They just cleaned and bandage your wounds.
Velocity approaches the man who is trying to get his attention, moving so fast it appears as if he instantly appeared in front of the man.
"What is it I can do for you, sir?" Jack asks the man.
“OH!” The man exclaims in surprise when Velocity appears in front of him. “Ah… yes sir, my name is Charles Benson and I was wondering if I might have a word with you and your companions. My employer has an offer that may be beneficial to all concerned.” He explains to Velocity. “Not to worry sir, this offer is legal and above board.” He quickly adds. “I just need a few minute of you time to explain my employers wishes.” He says politely with a smile.

Velocity watches the man's lips carefully, making sure he understood what was being said.
"I'm afraid I can't speak for my... companions," Velocity replied, looking around at the people he had known for all of ten minutes. "Well, except for him," Velocity said, pointing to Leech. "He and I will listen to what you have to say. As for the others, you'll have to ask them. Heck, I don't even know their names..."

Velocity sighs and turns to Leech. "Be a good boy and get the rest of the superpowered individuals to come over here, would you?"

Leech was still trying to figure out what Velocity was thinking when he volunteered him to listen to what this man said, when he was surprised yet again. At Velocity's request the boy turned to the older man. "You've got to be kidding me. Be a good boy? Crimany, I guess you are getting lazy in your old age." With that, Leech will go to the others who were involved and bring them back to the man and Velocity. "There, that good enough for you? Or would you like me to run down to Waffle House and get your dinner too?"
