Ally Estrada sat back on an old couch inside her one bedroom apartment.  Her fingers typed away at the built-in keyboard as she recounted her most recent patrol.  As a method for making extra money, she anonymously blogged her hero work, though she added and removed details to make it seem more fictional and never used real names.  Her mind became so absorbed in the story, when the front door opened she nearly jumped out of her skin.  The woman looked up to see her fiance.

"You're home late," she commented, concern edging her voice, "Everything okay?"

"I'm fine, but an alien... sphere crashed into a bus.  Everyone is dead.  The traffic is insane," Matthew answered, shaking his head.  

Ally saved the document and shut the laptop, "Where is it?"

"Little Bohemia by that Thai food spot."

"Shoot," Ally murmured, cogs turning quickly in her mind.  She needed to get down there to see what was going on, but going without suspicion was the hard part.  "That's terrible.  Speaking of terrible, we ran out of milk.  I'm gonna go to the store and grab some, okay?"

"Didn't I just buy some the other day?"

"Well, yes, but I've been craving milk recently, so another gallon would be better."

"Yeah?  Well don't make it a habit, okay?  Milk isn't cheap."

"I know, don't worry," Ally assured him, putting her wallet in her pocket.  She planted a kiss on his cheek, "I won't be long."  With that, she exited the apartment.

The streets were just as busy as normal, giving Ally enough time to slip into an alley and change.  She rapidly switched from a T-shirt and jeans into her spandex suit.  Her hand reached into her utility belt and pulled out a capsule.  A button at the top pressed down and it unravelled into a hoverboard.  She hopped on and zoomed away toward Little Bohemia.

It wasn't hard to find the scene, considering all the sirens blaring.  What she didn't expect, however, was to see a robot hop away from an imploding spacecraft of sorts.  Her jaw dropped as she watched a few police officers implode.  "Hey!" Red Agent shouted at the robot who was about twenty feet away.  She didn't know how to fight him and wasn't sure if she could talk him down from a fight.  "Why did you do that?"  It wasn't the most mature-sounding thing to call, but the shock from seeing the implosion shook her.  Red Agent couldn't help but think of the families those officers probably had.
