Harley's POV
We decided to hold a press conference a week later. I'd be announced to the world, as well as the evils that have happened. When the day came, I suited up and we walked out onto the stage. Steve made a quick speech and I stepped towards the podium.
"Hello, Manhatten. I am Harley Viennant, otherwise known as The Raven. I am here to enlighten you about the current situation of our beautiful city.
By the time I was six, I was orphaned and living on the streets. My aunt had taken our house and gotten rid of me after my father died of cancer when I was four and my mom was murdered in a robbery in front of me. Four long years ago, I was abducted by a man claiming to be a cop. He took me to a facility on the edge of town, where I was experimented on." I spread my wings out beside me. Murmurs swept through the crowd. "I have recently broken free from these evil men and joined the league of the most powerful beings of the nine realms: The Avengers. Out of the fifty test subjects, I am the only survivor. They have replicated the 'serum', a liquid that can enhance the human body in a series of extremely painful procedures. If you have any information on these scientists, please come forward and notice one of us or the police." I sighed and started taking questions. I had went through around fifteen when a man tried to insult me by saying, "Go back to your cage, lab rat!". I kept a neutral face as I said, "Lay off the chips, grandpa." He grumbled. I stepped down from the podium and Wanda patted me on the back. "You did great." I sighed. We listened to the Chief of Police make a speech then left in a sort of line. A scared looking woman approached me and I stepped off to the side next to her. "Do you need something, ma'am?" I asked. She leaned in and half whispered, "I saw a few homeless peopl arrested earlier. I didn't see them do anything illegal, either. The last one happened just before I got here." I thought about it for a moment. "What did the officer look like? Or, was it multiple?" She spoke even quieter. "One. Middle-aged, brunette." I was taken back. "Where did he go with the last one?" I expanded my wings. "Towards the hills." I nodded my thanks and ran over to the car. Steve rolled down his window. "What is it, Harley?" He asked. I looked around and spoke quietly. "I just got a tip that a cop has been wrongly arresting homeless people, and he matches the man who took me. I'm going after him, head towards the hills." He nodded and I flew off.
