To say I was pissed tonight would be an understatement.

I couldn't go patrolling with my vigilante team mates, and tonight was the day we were going to patrol with Purpled, or Galaxy as his vigilante name was. I was stuck with the heroes.

While yes we had stopped some crimes, they had also arrested an enhanced vigilante. 

So I was rightfully pissed.

The vigilantes enhancement was pretty weak, it was just extra energy so the "heroes" deemed him to be too weak to join us. He was thrown in jail and I was fuming. 


The Syndicates shift had just finished and we returned to the heroes common room, the father and sons walked straight to the coffee pot while Niki gave me a sad smile before joining them.

I let out an angry sigh and looked up to see which heroes were here- king, warden, the syndicate members of cause, and a new one that I hadn't seen. He was quite short, only around 5ft 8 or 5ft 9, with black hair covered by a black beanie. He had his back to me and was fixing the cuffs of his white shirt, the cuffs rolled up to his mid forearm. The most interesting thing is that he had a pair of beautiful golden wings, currently they were neatly tucked quite tightly to his back. 

This hero turned around and his dark eyes locked onto mine. He cocked his head and walked towards me, it was then that I noticed our whole interaction was being monitored by the other heroes.

He had a large scar on his face, it went over his left eye from half way up forehead to under his lip, and based on how much it stood out, the wound must have been deep, and painful.

I was snapped out of my thoughts as the hero stopped a few feet away from me and spoke, "hey there, don't think I've seen you around before. whats your name?" he asked,

"Portal" I quietly mumbled before signing

I'm a new hero, teleportation enhancement. Only started yesterday. 

Quackitys eyes darted up from my hands to my eyes and he gave a small smile, "Portal ey? So they finally caught you, well if I see the other Bench Trio members I'll be sure to tell them how your doing. I'm Quackity, or Alexis, nice to meet you." he didn't put his hand out to shake, which i was internally greatful for, "jesus christ, how fucking tall are you?!" he suddenly squawked, making Wilbur nearly choke on his coffee.

I let out a quiet laugh.

6ft 6, I'm was just born to naturally tower over you all.

I joked, Quackity tsked and gave me a mocking glare,

"Why am I always the short one?" he whined slightly, making me smile.

You patrol alone don't you?

I asked, interested to find out yet aware that this was probably touchy soil. Quackity looked down and he face morphed into one of steel, but I could see the sadness radiating off him,

"yeah I do, but I patrol with Slime and Foolish sometimes, but tonight its just me. The other heroes don't really talk to me much and if they have to go on a missions with me, they'll either bail or say as little as possible." He sighed and looked back up at me.

Why don't they want to hang out or talk with you?

He gave a sad laugh and shook his head,

"I'm sure you'll find out soon when one of them tells you." He spoke softly, and rubbed his face quickly before looking back at me, all sadness gone from his eyes are replaced by a playful sparkle, "see ya around big guy, I've gotta go on my shift now. It's er... going to be a long few hours that's for sure." He turned around to go the the wide open widen, presumably to jump out of since he has wings, but I quickly reached out and put my hand on his shoulder. Immediately I felt him go tense and he swiftly moved away and turned to face me, a slight look of... fear? In his eyes. 

It was times like this when I really wanted to know what the heroes were really feeling but I couldn't do that without them seeing my purple eyes, and that would give the whole game away. Both that and I was on mental enhancement repressant drugs right now to stop the purple tinge from appearing in my eyes.

I could patrol with you?

I sighed, the slight hesitation creeping into my movements, but I think he got the message. Quackitys eyes went wide and he just started at my hands even after I started rubbing them nervously waiting for his answer. The hero stayed stock still for several seconds before suddenly jolting and blinking rapidly,

"I- uh- um- ye- yeah- yeah sur- sure." He stuttered out, "you- you can join me." With that he quickly looked away and walked back to the window, with me hot on his tail as he jumped out and snapped open his wings, gliding down to the far buildings whilst I teleported out to where he would roughly land.
