Peaking over the rooftop in the autumn air, ignoring the fading sound of news helicopters, Silver could see everything happening on the rooftop two stories below. Mac, "Chameleon/Chamo", was fighting Alt, a hero who had ice powers, the ice was almost as cold as they thought Alt could be. Eclipse was fighting Whitefang, Whitefang was also a hero, she could phase through anything, but Eclipse was one of them, one of "The Sinners", he could make anyone do whatever he said as long as he said it seductively. Cynical, Silver's son, was going toe to toe with the fire started, Jazzy. Hotbur, "Ignatius", was fighting Mandonius/Mando, this hero had telekinetic powers, he abused them as much as possible. And in Jazzy's arms, the file The Sinners were there for. The heroes were taking a file or classified info back to headquarters, The Sinners knew it was classified by the fact there were so many heroes guarding it, especially powerful ones, and by the fact there was a big red word across the front reading; "CLASSIFIED". They could use whatever info they could get. Hotbur and Scott had their suspicions that the heroes were recruiting more people. When the two talked to Mac about it he agreed. Then they brought it to Silver and he put it on the list of possibilities.

Mandonius was using his powers to levitate himself in the air and throw stuff at Ignatius. Dancing orange light caught the corner of Silver's eye when he saw Jazzy slashing the air with fire, trying to knock Cynical over before he threw another one of his inventions at the fire starter. Silver could see purple particles of purple from where Chameleon was just a moment before, Chameleon was teleporting out the way of each ice spike Alt sent flying at him. Silver's eyes were drawn to the side of the roof, away from the fight, where he saw Blue. Blue was the heroes' healer. Healers are typically neutral and stick to the healing of their side instead of getting caught up in the fighting.

Silver winced as the sting from his ankle hit him once again. He looked down at where Ace, their healer, was healing his broken ankle. Silver was fighting Mandonius when he got thrown backwards. His ankle slammed against the edge of the roof with a loud crack. Thankfully, heroes are supposed to aim not to kill, but to incapacitate. While Silver fell, Mac teleported to him and got him to the next roof over, quickly getting their healer next while Hotbur was occupying Mandonius so Ace had a moment to heal Silver.

"Done. Just rest for a moment and you'll be good," the healer said as he stood up and began to walk over to the edge of the roof, as to see the fight as well.

"Thank you," Silver's voice changer was deeper than Ace's. For a long minute Silver just rested to regain himself fully. He could still see the whole fight from where he was so that was pretty entertaining. When he was ready, Silver called for Mac to bring him back into the fight. "CHAMELEON!" He yelled over all the fighting and hitting from the roof below. Mac's head shot up to him the moment he heard the yell. The boy looked at Alt, waved, and just teleported away. He grabbed Silver, who was now standing, and teleported them back down, quickly going back for the healer and dropping him next to Blue. Silver thanked the boy before noticing Scott again. Jazzy was way too close, actually being able to do some damage. Silver grabbed a piece of pipe he found on the ground and ran to intercept Jazzy before he hurt Scott. As he ran, the red glow from his hands matched the change of the pipe. It shifted from just a normal pipe to something much sharper, a spear. He would have done a sword but it would have taken longer, it would have taken time that he didn't have. Silver was able to knick Jazzy's arm before he burned Cynical. The man swung at Jazzy repeatedly, causing the other to yell at him and back up. He was trying to get the file as well, but it was gone. Silver assumed Jazzy gave it to Mandonius through Mando's telekinesis, since he could have carried it over everyones head. Thrown it off to the side, or gave it to their healer for safe keeping.

"AH! STOP! SILVER!" The fire that was there before started dying down, instead, Jazzy put his hands up to block the attacks from the father. Silver wasn't stopping, he wasn't doing real damage, just enough to back him up. He was a pacifist after all. But nothing would stop him from hurting anyone and everyone to protect his kids. Cynical took over again, using the pipe turned spear which his father just handed him.
