"Just one more thing to do" Richard said as he walked over to the thugs. He quickly and viciously grabbed the thugs by the neck and shoved them against the wall. Richard fangs and claws grew and his eyes went. "If I ever catch you commuting any crime again," he said in an almost demonic voice, "I will not hesitate to end your life." he dropped the thugs and walked past Vazquez. "Let's go."

As he was about to leave, Vazquez suddenly raised his foot as if he were about to kick one of the thugs, but stopped mid motion.

 

"Made you flinch," he grinned. "C'mon, let's bail."

 

Vazquez then began to laugh as he walked off into the night, which seemed to echo throughout the alley.

Richard laughed along side Vazquez as they walked into the night. He had all but forgotten how fun it was to have someone along side him. He stopped and turned. "Great work Vazquez," said Richard with a smile, "you really kicked some ass. I hope I didn't freak you out with that whole glowing eyes thing."

"It's a pretty effective shtick you've got going on. Seems like it works well enough to give the general scum of this city a reason to get their underwear dry cleaned. All I can do is break someone's nose with my pinkie finger. Hey, you wanna head back to my place for a couple beers?"

Richard smiled, "sounds like fun," he said with a smile. It had been ages since he had hung out with someone. He smiled as he continued walking. Out of all the team members he missed Vazquez the most. He felt that he could tell him anything. Richard stopped, "before we head to your place can I tell you something?"

@@Dapper Charmer,

 

"Yeah, sure man, go ahead," said Vazquez.

 

Vazquez always liked Richard as well. He felt like he was the only one who didn't go soft besides him, and that gained him a lot of respect. Plus, they were both the sort of the freak show as thier powers were natural rather than granted by tech.

Richard breathed a sigh of relief. He had successfully come out of the closet a d not been lynch mobbed, "thanks Vazquez, I knew it was the right choice to tell you," Richard said with a smile as he continued walking, "and I'm sorry if I was a bit frantic as I told you.

"Foot massage?" chuckled Vazquez. "Alright, you're on. My place is that old warehouse by 6th and Dempster. See you there."

 

With that Vazquez, took off running. He could go decently fast, but not as fast as Richard. Although, he did know the area better as well as some good shortcuts.

Richard smiled as Vazquez took off running. He should probably have been mad that Vazquez didn't wait for Richard to start, but then again Vazquez could probably use the head start. Richard took to the sky, he flew up high and took a moment to absorb the feeling of flight before quickly zooming towards Vazquez's house.

After strategically running through a few alleys, Vazquez stopped at a sewer grate, which he removed with ease. He then dropped down into the sewer, which he intended to use a shortcut to his house. While the water wasn't too much of a problem, he was still glad his boots were waterproof.

"Yeah, yeah," said Vazquez as he walked in and flicked a switch by the door. Several rows of lights came on to reveal the interior of the warehouse. One side was shelves with old boxes, but the other was relatively empty. Off to one side was an old brown couch in front of a tv, and to the other was a fridge along with a few cupboards and a microwave. "Catch!" called Vazquez as he took out a beer from the fridge and tossed it to Richard.

Richard thought about it for a while. If he'd been running as a posed to flying he might need a foot rub but since he hasn't. "Nah, you don't have to do that. Unless you really want to," he chuckled, "so tell me Vazquez, you seeing anyone?" Richard asked out of pure curiosity.
