As the brown-capped stranger walked into the city of skyscrapers, she silently wondered," [i]Now what? Should I stay hidden so more until I know everything that's going on? Or should I just reveal myself and hopefully survive Alchemax's muscle long enough to be contacted by the resistance? Will the resistance be as bad as their enemy or..? Uh, why didn't Merlin come with me?[/i]" Cyrania asked herself as she angrily sighed. "[i]We both knew there was a slim chance that my genetic parents were still going to be there, Thor hasn't been seen for a while so how could he convince the Mighty Thunderer to come back, other than that there's really no one who could have survived. I know he said he was going to come once he at least checked for some outside help, but still that step might have been saved till after we made ourselves known to the new true heroes of Earth. Why did he...[/i]"

Then the brunette felt someone going superhumanly fast, straight towards her. Her reflexes kicked in and projected a force-field. When the person collided, the impact sent them both flying, her onto her back and the person overhead and onto his face. As the two got up, Miss de Bergerac got a better look at this superhuman. His hair was white and swept back yet he didn't look that old, only about 20 or 30. His suit was black and close-fitting with a weird light design on it that made a lighting bolt on his chest. His eyes were also looking her over like she was him. Then he asked,"Has Spider-man found himself a new helper then? You're definitely not one of us and you've stalled my search for him."

"Sorry, but I'm new here," replied Cyr tersely. "I didn't realize I was suppose to just let you ram me over when you traveled that fast. I have no idea who this Spider-man is and I don't know who you are."

"Why, I'm Quicksilver," the white-haired man replied. "The fastest member of the Avengers of Alchemax. Spider-man is the number one threat of this city who stole some of Alchemax's property. Stop me again and I'll consider you on his side." Then he started to speed away, but ran into another forcefield. 

"Well, since you're one of Alchemax's lap dogs, whoever you seek must be worth standing with. I'm sure there's a simple explanation for this 'property' he stole" Than Cyrania smiled, causing Quicksilver to charge at her and once again be stopped by a force-field. She then trapped him in a close-set force-field dome and said, "Tell your masters that Zola's Experiment Alpha has arrived. They should then know who I am. I've only been 'stolen' for eleven years." Then with a laugh and a flourish of her cape, Alpha walked away and disappeared. The force-field soon disintegrated behind her.

Once she was out of his sight, her invisibility wore off to reveal a short, teenage girl with golden hair in blue jeans, white shirt, and green sweater. "[i]Well, it could have been better but it could also have been worse,[/i]" Cyr thought to herself. "[i]At least now, I have someone I should contact, Spiderman. Alchemax has made more super-guard dogs and has the audacity to call them Avengers. And that message might distract some of the search away from him and onto me. But I don't have enough energy to use in one battle like that again and having to use some to blend in like this until I get a change of clothes somehow won't help matters. Better find this Spiderman then, the other stuff can take care of itself.[/i]" So Alpha decided to find Spiderman first before taking care of more mundane matters like shelter, food, clothing, and money.
