Streak continued to wave at the on looking audience as he basked in his own glory. He was back. And what an impression he has made already. He hadn't even tackled any thugs yet and already he was the city saviour once more. It felt great to be back but the hole inside of him still lingered in the back of his mind. As he stood with his ego soaking in all the euphoria of his return, he couldn't help but think about his team mates. Nighthawk was like a brother to him, even if he did have fun annoying him. He missed his mysterious nature. How he would walk off without saying a word. Nighthawk never was a man for conversation. Unlike Kadabra, oh how he missed her. Her innocent smile. Childish personality and the was she seen good in everyone and everything. Kadabra had powers he had never encountered before but those powers definitely saved his life that day. 

He wondered what dimension she was in at this moment in time. He pictured her skipping along swinging her brown bag "Basket" in a candy filled land with bright flowers and rainbows. His mind suddenly switching to the chaos and destruction as the Crusaders watchtower crumbled before his eyes. That was the end of his friends. Or so he thought. He knew from that moment as the dust kicked up from the ground as the tower collapsed that The Crusaders was no more and that a definitive hole would form a void in his day to day life. He had to get away. Take a vacation and rethink things. He knew where to go. He would go to London and visit his ballerina girlfriend that he met at a film premiere 5 years ago. She always understood Matthew. Knew how to comfort him and take away his arrogance.

It was while he was away that he decided to return to Veridian and start the team again. With new people. Bringing a breathe of fresh air back to the city. Now here he was with the medias eyes on him. Now was the time.

" I am Reforming The Crusaders. We all lost some good people that day. Some who will never be replaced. However, I am calling any Meta Human out there who wants to kick the back side of evil to step forward and join me on a brand new Crusade! I will be in the centre of Veridian Central Park in....well.... 1 minute and 34 seconds flat. I will stay there until the sun goes down, or at least until I think I am wasting my time. Any person who believes they can bring back our city. Meet me there and let's get this party started!"

At this moment, Streak took off with a high velocity. Kicking up litter and dust into the air and sending the mayors tie slapping over his shoulder. The crowd cheered once more. But louder than before. People were hugging each other and crying. The belief was back. Or at least it was for now.
