Mary Marvel Having superpowers are cool. Let's not deny it. But the coolest HAS to be being able to FLY. Hands down, shut the front door, period, the end. Of course, you can't use these powers selfishly, so changing into Mary Marvel just to avoid traffic jams is stupid when you can just use the subway. Besides, those lightning bolts can mess with people's stuff.

Tonight, however, there had been a fire in an apartment building, and some dumb-dumb with a gun trying to rob a pharmacy. The fire is out now, and the dumb-dumb is in a police car while the cops are picking up all the flattened bullets. Note: have to remember not to tense up with people are shooting at you, or the bullets do bounce and might hit other people...
Mary thinks all this to herself while soaring through the sky above Midtown Manhattan, Central Park off to her right.
Nyx That absolutely coolest super power is definitely FLYING.

Eat it earthbound superbeings and muggles

There is the distinctive crack of a sonic boom as Samantha drops in from the stratosphere and drops into the realm of friction. If of all things slowing down as she gets further into atmosphere.

The teenager is headed home to the Triskelion now as she doesn't realize sjhe is about to run afoul with another superhero flying by Central Park....

"Fuck!" and she veers at the last moment ... angelic wings of energy flaring a she banks and almost hits a skyscraper there in Mid-Town.... putting on the brakes hard and slowing to a hover.

Only in New York.
Mary Marvel Mary is still distracted. If she had radar or something...but she doesn't and some kind of ANGEL suddenly descends down and almost runs smack into her!

The Mightiest Maiden EEPS and stops in midair as the angel swooshes past her, fluttering her cape as she passes. Then the angel stops short right before causing the SECOND apartment-building incident Mary's seen tonight.

Okay. There are no traffic lights up here. But, dangit, she has to be more CAREFUL. She has to pay attention! She...
...that's a VERY strange set of wings that angel has. Curious, Mary drifts over to the angel, stopping about 20 feet away. "Uhmmmm...hi?" the costumed brunette offers with an almost shy wave.
Nyx Sam takes a deep breath and checks herself, hands going to pat against the heavy duty SHIELD flight gear she is in.

They got tired of replacing her jackets and fatigues and gave her studier suits back at HQ.

After finishing patting herself down the 'Angel' pivots the energy wings not even fluttering now as she turns around to face Mary.

"Ah crap... sorry ma'am." yup.. Ma'am... I mean in this form Mary looks like an Adult right.

Sam vaguely gestures "I wasn't ... yeah totes my fault sorry... I should really have been watching my HUD better.. " pause "stuff it Nyx" is muttered to herself.
Mary Marvel The brunette holds up both hands. "No, no...I was distracted, too. I have to take responsibility for that. So...hi. I'm Mary Marvel." She floats closer, extending a hand in greeting. She smiles pleasantly, seeming to greet anything new with a smile and a sense of curiosity.
Nyx Samantha's wings are burning the very air behind her, brilliant and very angelic but .. not really.

"Oh.. uh..." the teenager offers a bit of a goofy smile though and extends a hand as she hovers. "Samantha and Nyx... um.. pleased to meetcha... you're not a supervillain of some sort are you?"

The SHIELD insignia on her jacket is pretty blatant
Mary Marvel Mary tilts her head. "Samantha...AND Nyx? There's two of you in there?" She looks intrigued, but puzzled as well. She giggles at Nyx's question. "No. If I was a supervillain, I have either gone into some overblown monologue about how superior I am, or I would have hauled off and punched you by now. No, I'm a good girl!" She beams, then spots the insignia.
She's seen it before. She's seen it crop up in various hero-related forums. "You're with whoziwhatsit, SHIELD?"
Nyx Samantha totally rolls her eyes "God... do they ever monologue... so annoying..."

She taps the side of herh ead "Two of us yes..."

At the recognition she nods "Yeah Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division... which god lame..." she seems really young to be in SHIELD honestly, but the jacket does look very official.

"Nice to meet you Mary" there is a pause "So....are you on patrol of something?"
Mary Marvel "Patrol? Oh...yeah. Heroes DO that, patrol!" She laughs a little. "Sorry...a lot of this is so NEW to me, you don't even know. No, I...saw trouble and jumped in to stop it. There was a fire in Harlem...emphasis on the WAS. Then there was this guy, trying to rob the Eckerd Drug on 15th? Yeah, he's TOTALLY arrested. Shot at me a lot, but..." she twirls in midair, displaying her loose-fitting costume. "...not a scratch. So, I guess I was just woolgathering...that's what my dad calls going around, thinking of stuff...and then HELLO, midair collision in progress!"
Nyx Sheam tilts her head a little bit and then nods lightly "Man.. you sound even a litle newer than I do..."

The teen squints a little because well the tone and all is a bit .. well her not older but she nods.

"good job.. uh citizen?" she grins a bit and holds her fist out for a dap now. "I was dealing with a rogue satelite going into a dangerous re-entry... seriously though sorry I almost ran into you I wasn't paying attention. New York has so many damn capes I swear..." she laughs.
Mary Marvel Mary bumps Nyx's fist with her own, but looks admiringly at her. "A rogue satellite? WOW! That's seriously epic. I haven't done anything like that. I don't even know how high I can fly yet. I am SERIOUSLY strong though. That battleship in the Pacific that ran aground and got moved to a safe place? That was me!" She beams again. She may look like an adult, but she has the exuberance of a proud teenager.
Nyx Making a mental note about updating the intel on the battleship incident Sam nods to Mary.

"Awesome. So are you like totes new to this then... I mean I don't want to assume but you sound pretty new to this but definitely doing the right thing to help out there..."

Bright smile like PR told her to do hen talking to press.

"I've only been doing this like a year but well.. I do have an ops team to help me."
Mary Marvel An OPS team! Now THAT is a professional superhero! Man, SHIELD gets all these trained-operative-superheroes. Maybe she should get involved or something...

Except she has school to worry about. Oh, well, guess she'll have to shed her amateur standing some other way.
She realized she is staring at Nyx and stops. But, STILL... "...an ops team? I don't know what that is, exactly, but I'm sure it's some really professional...heroing. Hero-ing? Is that a word? Well, it's a word now."
Nyx "I'm pretty sure it is a word... they go by control." she taps her temple.

"Honestly they are watching through a video feed right now and logging all of this.. FYI..."

"I only get to come out and hero when they dispact me to deal with problems or missions..." a light roll of her shoulders to a mid-air shrug.

"So super strength and flight.. that is pretty spectacular. Glad you choose to hero."
Mary Marvel Mary nods. "Well, it's a responsibility. I wasn't born like this...seriously, there was no WAY I was born like this...but I was given these powers, and I need to use them responsibly. Use them to help people. You know...use them RIGHT." She looks out at the city skyline. "Using them just to benefit yourself...that's just selfish. And I know selfish people."

She sighs, then smiles wryly to Nyx.
Nyx Samantha spreads her hands as she floats there on angel wings. "Eh I had a brush with selfishness.. I'm not one to throw stones really.. but yeah... "

"Helping people and doing the right thign.. it is why I joined SHIELd." that and the alternative of ending up in containment really.

"So what else can you do?" she pauses "I can shoot energy beams." she offers.
Mary Marvel Mary thinks for a moment. "Fatrat...I don't know, really. I can move pretty fast. Like, REALLY fast. It's a little disorienting, though. And I'm bulletproof. And rocket-proof. Yeah, someone shot a rocket at me."
Nyx "Huh... durability and speed... sort of the superman package it sounds like.. guh I sound like the lab boys..."

A grin though. "Well shit.. who the hell shot a rocket at you?" a mouth on the teen.

also she is a bit young to be in SHIELD.
Mary Marvel Mary blinks. That's bad language, but she's not the Decency Police. She looks down at the street below far. Far below her. "Some guys. They were protecting a bunch of drugs. One of them fired...lemme see, it was...RIGHT! An RPG-7!" She grins, proud of herself for being able to identify it. Of course, she used the Internet. "It was VERY loud, but nope...didn't even tear the costume."
Nyx "Well.. that is very impressive." and well Sam means that.

"Shit I go through so many flight suits and jackets... re-entry is the worst... just.. poof fireballs..."

A Shrug then she cocks her head.

"Control wants me back, something about a briefing... um... hmm... you got an email?"
Mary Marvel Mary blinks. Yeah...she could use an email address. But how...well, she could get one.
"Shoot...I don't have one yet. I got it." She points to a cell tower nearby. "Come back in 24 hours. I'll leave my email address there. You'll know it when you see it. Does that work?"
Nyx Sam blinks but nods "Sure.. or .. I mean a burner phone.. leave something and I'll come and snag it then send you contact info. In case you need back up."

This is honestly a new experience for Sam, someone who seems newer at this than she is.

"Cool.. anyhow..catch you later."

The wings flare and she pivots then shoots off towards the Triskelion, careful to not pop the sound barrier in mid town though... windows are fragile.
Mary Marvel Mary watches her go. She REALLY needs an e-mail address. Why didn't she think of that?

Nearly-limitless power and you're still a dork.
Mary sighs, then soars off in the direction of Brooklyn.
