				Timothy Simmons wasn't like every other young adult of 20 years old, though he looked it. He had brown hair and blue eyes, standing at 6 feet tall with a lean build. That's not what made him special though. He had an agility like that of spider-man. He could stick to most surfaces, he could fly and had enough strength to lift a small Toyota. His senses were sharper too but, he didn't really count them as super powers, he couldn't hear things happening clear across the city. He could hear things maybe a couple blocks away, if it was a calm clear day.<br><br>His suit was black and gold with an image of a wasp with the wings spread on either side and the six legs spreading over his shoulders and taut stomach. He'd been told a few times he looked like a gothic version of the comic book character spider-man, with the gold tinted eye plates he wore to see out of. He went by The Hornet when he was in his black and gold suit. Ofcourse, the villains he came across almost never got it right, calling him things like "Buzz man" and "Bumblebee". It really ticked him off most of the time, and it was worse when fellow heroes did it. Unfortunately he didn't heal quickly and he wasn't bullet proof, which meant that he could get hurt like everyone else.<br>He loved flying, he flew every chance he got, even if it was just running to the store for milk. He flew over the city and watched it stretch out beneath him. Then he decided he'd had enough flying for the moment and began to decend to the streets, the levels of building passing by with dizzying speed.<br><br>He touched down on the sidewalk for a moment and sat on a bench, waving gleefully at people as they stared at him. He wore a mask that fully covered his face, so he felt secure and at ease, and placed his arms over his head and sighed. So far the day had been pretty slow and easy.

				Elly Chang was second generation Chinese-american.&nbsp; She was 5'2" and quite fit though she had trained for speed so was quite lean.&nbsp; She had long black hair that she kept back in a bun or a long ponytail.&nbsp; She had begun learning Wushu at a young age, as was her family tradition so now, at the age of 20, was one of the world masters.<br><br>By herself she was a normal human however on her sixteenth birthday she had begun having troubling dreams.&nbsp; On her eighteenth birthday she had an apparition.&nbsp; It seemed that since his death the spirit of the legendary Wong Fei-hung would possess the greatest fighter of each generation and she had been the one chosen.&nbsp; Greatness did not mean strongest, though it was a part.&nbsp; She was proud of who she was and where she came from.&nbsp; She believed in truth and righteousness and fair play and all these things helped make a person great.<br><br>Wong Fei-hung's apparition gave her a medallion to summon him to combine her strength with his making her stronger, faster and more resilient.&nbsp; Being a spirit he had abilities she did not, she could tap her chi to create amazing effects and as a bonus it came with a really awesome costume and a giant Chinese broadsword!&nbsp; She wore a mask and goggles to protect her identity and that of her family.<br><br>She wasn't very creative when it came to picking her name so she just went with the unimaginative Kung Fu Girl.&nbsp; When the Hornet landed she materialised from an alley and walked over to him.<br><br>"I guess from that sigh you haven't seen anything eh?&nbsp; Well, I guess that's a good thing."<br>(I'm going on the assumption they know each other already.)<br>(http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a287/kabbit_babbit/EllyChang2.png)

				(That'll work, we can play it that way.)<br><br>Hornet looked up as Kung Fu Girl materialized behind him "Heya KG, how's it going?" he sighed and looked back to the street to watch the traffic "Yup, dull day today so far. I haven't even been able to nail a cut purse today. Why don'tcha sit down and chat to me a bit? Tell me what's been going on with you" he said patting the empty space beside him.<br><br>Then he turned around in a flash, kick jumping out of the bench and twisting in the air only to land in a kneeled position in front of Kung Fu Girl. "Unless ofcourse you have something you need help with! Is that it? What is it?" Hornet said not winded in the least by the manuever and getting an edge of excitement in his voice.

				Kung fu Girl was about to say she couldn't sit when he sprang at her.&nbsp; She jumped back in surprise in a relaxed, ready stance but calmed when he landed just kneeling, "I, umm, am looking to round up some kidnappers.&nbsp; They grabbed this boy, I just hope it's not one of those rings you hear about in the news, you know?&nbsp; I'd hate to have to run around the world, you know with... ah... well, I don't really have that kind of money." she gave a little laugh, "Anyway, I got a lead that they might be in the warehouse district, which is a pain in the butt since it's so big so I could use a second pair of eyes."<br><br>She began searching through her pockets and fished out a photo, it had an average looking family on it and she pointed to the youngest boy of two, "That's him, you can borrow the photo in case you see him but, ah, I would like it back after."

				"Ahh, poor little guy. The warehouse district you said? Sounds like a plan, I'd like to copy that if I may after we're through lookin around" Hornet said after handing back the photo and jumping into the air, hovering over the bench a good six feet. "Yeah, those groups are never fun to deal with. They make it hard to track them by moving around alot. Luckily for me I don't have to worry about frequent flyer mileage" he said with a little chuckle.<br><br>He thought it a little funny that he could still startle her by such base acrobatic actions. Well for him and others like him atleast.<br>The people walking to and from work, looked at the two oddly but then returned their attention to the front. Hornet paid them no mind and looked to Kung Fu Girl "Well, shall we go?"

				She looked confused, waving her hands and her head, refusing the photo, "No, I meant after we find him you can return the photo, I've... memorised it already." she couldn't say that it was the son of a family friend.&nbsp; The kidnappers of course didn't know.<br><br>As she stepped back towards the alley she had come from, "We need to do this as quiet as possible.&nbsp; If they see us coming..." she couldn't finish the sentence.<br><br>She stepped into the shadows, the darkness enveloping her.&nbsp; She quickly scrambled up to the roof top and ran and jumped towards the warehouses.

				Hornet nodded and flew into the air as he stuffed the picture into his utility belt, for safe keeping.<br>He followed behind KG at a calm relaxed speed. At about what he assumed was a quarter of the way there, he took out the photo again and memorized the boy's features. He had chubby cheeks with light brown, nearly blonde hair and big blue eyes. <br><br>"Hey, KG, tell me something. How much do you know about what this group wants with this kid? I mean is this a regular ransom demand or is it something personal?" Hornet said speeding up a little and hovering two feet above the surface of the roof, keeping pace easily beside her.

				He looked up at the Hornet, "You mean you don't recognise the father?&nbsp; He's the one they call the hanging judge.&nbsp; He's been giving out maximum penalties to anyone dealing in dangerous narcotics or gangs or robbery or first degree.&nbsp; There've been no demands yet but..." she shakes her head.

				"Yeah, there probably will be before too long. I'd hate for the kid to be hurt for a message to the father. Sounds like if we can't rap this up today then we need to be talking to the father and maybe the brother" Hornet said as he rose in the air a little and began to run beside KG. <em>Hopefully, it'll be alot less noticeable if I run than fly</em> he reasoned. They soon came upon the warehouse.<br><br>

				She scanned the warehouses.&nbsp; They all looked the same to her, "How do you want to do this?&nbsp; We each take a side and search half of them?&nbsp; We stick together?"<br>There really didn't seem to be a good answer, not one Kung Fu Girl saw anyway.

				<br>He crouched low, as he scanned the buildings, looking for any sign of illegal activity. He looked up as KG asked what he thought they should do. He thought for a moment before saying "Let's stick together, but, you take one side of a warehouse and I'll take the other side. That way if something comes up we can back each other up easier".<br><br>He scanned the buildings again and nodded toward the middle warehouse. The entrance was open and two guards stood outside. "I think starting our search at the one in the middle would be a safe bet" he said with a little anxiety in his voice that quickly turned to enthusiasm "b'cause I doubt the local law enforcement gives out assualt rifles to regular entrance guards". He looked up to her and smiled through the mask. He looked down at the distance between the building they were on and their destination. There was alot of open ground to cover. This was going to be tricky.<br><br>"So, any ideas on how we get over there without being spotted? I know about you can dissapear but I can't visibly cloak myself. That and flying is too risky at the moment. They could see me and then this would have all been for nothing if they sounded the alarm" Hornet rubbed his chin as he tried to think of something.
