Michale could hear the crowd from the locker room. it had been a good game and they had one even better. he felt the pat on the back from the team as they left he looked down at his helmet and smiled. it was not full of joy as most would think. His world had changed people did not act the same here he was still getting use to it.
"hey Mike come on you will miss the party." the smile changed and he leaped up and headed with his team mate they reached the party and as soon as they walked in they were meet by chants of M.V.P he lifted his hands up and moved threw the crowd. here people believed in him and liked him, he was there sports hero and it felt good. After a few hours he was dancing with some girl when a man rushed in to the room and yelled cops. Michael bolted in to the garden like so many. he saw the cops and ran leaping over a hedge with easy he could here the cops yelling. he did not stop the feancy were no problem for him.
After a few fences he made out the cops trying to follow him but they could not keep up one of them pulled out the radio. he made out that they were calling in that they were chasing a possible mutants. Grate, he thought as he decided to keep running. he cleared several more fences before turning a corner and waiting to see if he had escaped.

Admittedly Kate was a fan of M.V.P, mainly because of his sheer skill and althetecism but also because of his striking build. M.V.P was an athlete pure and simple, built up in all fields to get the most out of himself, it was something that Kate herself tried to achieve on her own as Seraph and on quite a few occaisions she had found herself actually slightly envious of the self titled sporting titan.
At the party Kate had been with a few 'friends', or at least people thought that she was their friend, her reason for being with them mostly was to portray a normal lifestyle under her human alias. Tonight was a good one, full of people, music and dancing but it was all to fall away when the cops burst into the place and began shouting off.
Heading out the back and hiding Kate muttered an incantation and dissapeared, becoming nothing but a faint wisp of moving black smoke she heard running and jumping nearby. Rematerializing in her costume, as Seraph she teleported to a higher point on the top of a roof and looked down like a bird of prey. It was MVP, running from the cops. Torn in half whether to help the police catch the man or the person she sort of respected the choice became clear.
Dropping down between both MVP and the police Seraph pushed her hand out towards the officers, a red flash and all of them where made to dissapear, reappearing in the Fresh Kills landfill site miles away. Turning to look at the still running MVP she spoke in a louder than normal voice.
"You are safe now Mr Van Patrick."

Grate he thought busted good by to his scholarship. Then they just vanished. His jaw hut the floor there were no mutants in his community back home. He was brought up polite. "Thank you." she was prity to say the least but he knew getting evolved with a mutant, would bring unwanted attention to him self. special with the whole SSS thing. he been cleared but that sort of thing left a stain on your rep no mater if it was true.
"You have me at a disadvantage i have no clue who you are miss."

"Seraph." She spoke simply and in a lowered tone to maintain her own identity, the woman behind the title however was noticing the reaction of the sportsman, his reaction of nervousness it seemed. Was he embarresed to be helped by her? Did he hate mutants and think she was one? No...Those would be irrational and human. It was hard to forget at times that other people around her were human and Seraph often needed to take a step back to understand that in itself.
"Although I would be interested in knowing why you felt that you had to run from the police Mr Van Patrick. Surely standing your ground and having not exactly broken the law in mere attendence of a party with other people would have lead to just you going home and a possible future statement about events."

"well its simple i was drinking and that's illegal for some one under teh age of 21. I have to keep out of to much trouble for my scholarship and all the controversial around me at the moment i can't afford to pay my self threw school."
he knew it was stupid he could get in to trouble more for running than staying. he hoped he had goten away with it. he Hated the fact but it was true, all he had look forward to with out a scholarship was Farming. There was nothing wrong with farming but he could not see him doing taht till he died.

"Well, it would seem that you're simply a victim to the trappings of success, nothing more." Seraph's public identity knew the worries about getting caught, Kate had been drinking at the party too and she was only 19 herself. Just as well she could use magic in the way that she did, other wise she'd have been caught several times by now for underage drinking.
"I'd assume that you'd want to keep this secret about your....activities yes?"

"I would be Grateful that you did not let any one know about this. I know its not a big deal to most people but its not the best thing for me to be found doing. If there anything i could do for you to repay you i would." it was pushing his luck with the last comment and it was meant in a slightly flirtatious manner. He was one of nature risk takers, it game from being good at most things you did you and to raise the bar all the time.
He listen there were no cop cars in ear shot that was a plus. he could get back home with out being seen. The dorms were not that far away.

"Consider it just between me, you and the stars Mr Van Patrick. And I will remember that repayment remark," Seraph really would. Having someone like MVP on your side may actually prove useful in the right tight spot, to be honest he was an athletic powerhouse of a man, given the right direction and use of his talents Seraph was sure that she would at sometime call upon his invaluable services sooner or later. Turning her body sideways giving the youngster a clear run away she signalled, "you are free to leave at any time. Unless there is anything you'd want to discuss?"

"yeah diner. How about it?" it was checky and a bit much but the girl had a nice figure he just hoped the face matched what else he could see. He normaly could pull when he wanted to and did. " so why do it be a hero? No one cares any more." it was true mutants hero and everything else had so much bad press that they were not what they use to be.
He kne wthe avengers were a joke now they did nothing and with this whole register thing it was more work than it was worth.

Seraph smirked a little, she had her spell working that protected her identity, a shroud spell that when she removed her costume no-one would associate her with the Seraph persona even if she did it in front of them. The only way to bypass this was to WILL the person opposite to know who you were which Seraph didn't want...not with the dashing MVP anyway.
"It's people like me who care about the safety of everyone else. When the police are faced with mutant criminals or powerful individuals then its people like me, a 'hero' who steps in as back up. Imagine a world were any evil mutant can get what they want whenever, upstanding people like yourself would be robbed, beaten or even killed at random. Believe it or not we're part of the thin line between order and chaos...Ever considered it yourself with your physical talents?"

"me a hero? I don't think it would work at all. Yeah i know what you mean. Its a bit like sports, you got this line between pushing your self to be the best and then cheating. You can be good and earn it or you can do it the quick way. get the glory for a short time before they find out. But if you do it the good hard working way it takes longer but your up there for longer as well and you can be a hero in your own way. show the world that helping other is cool and well hero have to hide behind masks and were teh fun in being famous if no one knows who you really are?"

"We all have our reasons; personal mostly, others don't relish the attention, others feel ashamed by who they are while some even feel it a duty not to let the world know who they are. We all wear masks really, its just that some choose to wear one to help out those who cannot help themselves."
It was a point he made, one of someone who was used to the spotlight and would want recognition for any good deed, "You can't imagine the buzz to do something good and then blend into a crowd with no-one any wiser."

" For me i am happy with sports. I can do good that way, beside like i have said hero have such a bad reputation."
HE smiled she did not know that in truth he was a Super soldier, He was what cap had been meant to of been. The difference is that he had not used drugs to get there he had earned it. Then again all the government wanted was quick fixes. He knew it had worked after all Captain America was the proudest thing his family had ever done. Part of him wanted to be as big as him make a name for him self. Just so his family would no longer be the people who made captain American But they could hold there heads up and say that they had a Family hero a real American hero. YEs the thoughts of saving lifes was tempting but he knew were that rode whent.

"I see. Well here is something should you change your mind." Moving her hand from her side a smoke formed and a small black card with a red wing symbol on it with her name across the front in white letters, she held it out to him and gave it to him, "Just hold onto and focus and I'll be there. Now you have your very own guardian angel Mr Van Patrick."
And then in the blink of an eye she dissipated in a wisp of mist that magically formed. To be honest though she hadn't gone far, just around the corner she appeared but no-longer dressed as Seraph. Kate sighed softly and leaned into the wall looking up at the sky. She sort of had a childish crush on the sports star and her Seraph persona was the only way she was confident enough to do anything. The choker around her neck powered down from a soft glow, all who might have seen her still wouldn't know her identity because of the charm of the Shroud choker, now she looked just like a teenage girl in the middle of Staten Island.

m.v.p looked at the card and slipped it in to the pocket of his jeans. he started to head round the corner making his way back to the dorm. he stooped as he saw a girl leaning agents the wall. "Hey didn't i see you t Joe's party?" she must of made a run for it as well. Well it was a nice night and still early he could always have some fun. "i am Micheal"
he was glad the cops had gone tehy were probaly off eating some were. they never did run after you for two long. back home they did not have to every one knew every one so they just went to your home and waited for you to come back.
