[Open] Angels of Swords

Arriving in the city that these humans called 'the big apple' which he found odd since there wasnt one apple in it, except for those being in the market stalls that he saw. This confused him, also his wings felt the wind and it fealth heavy, full of impurities, but still enough to fly on at least, people were giving him odd looks as he was a man with wings flying through the city.

He landed in Grand Central Park and got some food to eat, although he didn't need it, these looped thingies that everyone was eating seemed interesting so he had one, the saltiness was an odd experience however, the fact that he could eat something soft, and salty also. But that wasn't the point. He had to be ableto blend in, but the other thing he needed was to evade loneliness, and find someone to talk to at minimum. He would search all day if he had to but he would start by sitting on a bench and waiting for someone to talk to him.

Ah, the empire city, Lucius arrived in his home town only an hour ago hoping to see the progress of the rebuilding, and maybe get a hot dog. He decided to go to times square, he was told that was where most of the construction was taking place. He flagged down a cab and got in "where to" the driver said, "times square" and they were off. Stepping out of the cab he gave the driver his fee and got his bag, the cab drove off and he stood in the middle of times square. He spotted a hot dog stand and made his way to it "2 please" he said to the vendor "Alright" the vendor said handing him 2 freshly made dogs, he walked over to a table, sat down, and began to eat.


The city had changed since he was last there, metas lived among humans quite happily. Looking around, he spotted the strangest creature sitting on a bench eating a pretzel. A few years ago people would have freaked out seeing him here, but after the attack people become more accepting of metas, some thinking they were more guardians then tyrants. Lucius wondered if he spoke English, for some reason he wanted to know more about him, so he started walking toward him. when he reached the creature he asked "So, where are you from?) he sat down and awaited his answer.

Astounded that a man just approached him he just looked at him and then smiled at his question, a little addled as to why that was his first question, he retorted with "I am not of this earth sir, and you are not like most, you ask where I am from before a name? This breaches apparent custom here".

He finished his pretzel and stood, archin his back as he did so, however since his wings were his coat but were attached to his back his entire coat shuddered, as he turned back to the man he frowned "Speaking of which, what is that? I have seen many individuals eating them, but I had no idea what the meat was?"

Lucius felt like he offended the creature, not wanting to be rude he responded "Sorry if I offended you, what is your name? And this is a hotdog, the meat isnt dog like the name suggests, it's mostily pork but also has beef and chicken." He stood to remain face to face with the creature and waited for him to reply

Imperius smiled as the man "No-no I am not offended, but my name is Imperius, pleasure to make your aquaintance" he nodded at the man when he was talking about hot-dogs, the concept they were called dogs but contained no dog at all addled him but he didn't complain or ask him any further questions, not that he could until a van drove hecticly through. The park with the back doors open and two men with guns ripped past, it was fairly obvious what had taken place, so Imperius turned to Red Tide and said "I will tend to this matter if you don't mind, I will ask your name at a later date" at which point his coat unfurled to his metallic wings revealing a toned bare chest and he took off after the car.

Lucius chuckled a bit as a van came shooting through the park with guns a blazing. He wondered if the men actually took themselves seriously. The creature in front of him sped off after it giving lucius little time to think of what to do. He wanted to find out all he could about him as he could become an asset to his long term goals. He decided to followed them, not that he cared if the men robbed a bank or did something else illegal, he just wanted to gain this things trust.  He didn't have his gear with him, so that was a problem, but he'd have to go without on this one.  He saw a motorcycle parked about 20 feet away from him, so he ran to it and got on. He quickly hot wired it then put the helmet that was on the bikes handle bars on and rode off after them.
