She answered it with an excited hello since she did win yet another case but this win was different considering she wasn't in Starling City but she was in the City That Never Sleeps known as New York City. It was a high profile case and she won, which made her feel great. [color=#000000][b]"Daddy, I am fine. You have to quit worrying yourself about me. Let's not forget about your heart condition. And yes, I did win the case."[/b][/color] Laurel mentioned because she hated it whenever her dad would worry about her. Something that was rather constant for him to do and while she did not mind it sometimes, it's been a little bit too much since she came to New York City. She missed being in Starling City at times though and often reminisce about her time there especially whenever her dad called. [color=#000000][b]"I love you, too, dad but get some rest and I'll call you soon. I'll call you, not you call me."[/b][/color] Laurel stated as her father chuckled on the other line then told her goodbye as she said the same then hung up the phone. Her heels clicked against the floor as she went back over towards her client, who was surrounded by officers, with a smile and an apology. She held her briefcase into both of her hands now and in front of her as she gazed upon her client now. [color=#000000][b]"Today was a good day and you should enjoy your freedom. Have a nice one, Mr. Adamson."[/b][/color] Once she spoke those words, she walked away from him and the officers then headed out of courthouse as she walked down the stairs now. She had reached the parking lot and got inside of her vehicle as she exhaled a sigh while placing her briefcase in the passenger seat. While she did not really have any plans for the day, a walk in Central Park seemed like a good idea in her head so that's exactly what she was going to do for the time being. It was a lovely day outside and she just really needed to clear her head right about now. An hour or so has now past as she ended her gallop through Central Park and started a new trek towards her apartment, which wasn't too far from where she was now. On her way towards her apartment though, she saw a guy pinning a woman against the wall then slapped her. [color=#000000][b]"Hey!"[/b][/color] Laurel called out as the man turned to gaze towards her now as the woman slipped away. The man eyed Laurel and he made it clear that she was now in his sights as she stood there, a bit frozen but she was certainly going to be on her toes at all times now. While the thoughts constantly filled up her mind now, she placed into the back of her mind as she entered her apartment now. Laurel tossed her keys onto the table nearby and took off her coat that she placed onto the back of a chair nearby. Again, she exhaled a sigh as she went over towards a cabinet to grab a shot glass then walked over towards another cabinet to grab a bottle of Scotch. [color=#000000][b][i]'This is only a celebratory drink. This is only a celebratory drink.'[/i][/b][/color] She thought to herself repeatedly as she opened the bottle and poured it into the shot glass then grasped it as she chugged it down. Laurel then put away the Scotch and rinsed out the glass as she placed both items back where she got them from. [color=#000000][b]"Guess I can lay down for a bit now."[/b][/color] She spoke to herself as she did decide to lay down, for now anyway.[hr] [indent][indent][sub][h3][b][color=#000000]► Hᴇʀ Aᴘᴀʀᴛᴍᴇɴᴛ // Pʀᴇsᴇɴᴛ Dᴀʏ[/color][/b][/h3][/sub][hr][color=#8B8B8B][b][sub]November 12[sup]th[/sup], 2017 // 6:05 P.M.[/sub][/b][/color][/indent][/indent] Laurel woke up with gasp as her ears twitched at the sound of an explosion. She could not help but feel a sort of quake as it seemingly rocked all areas surrounding. Without hesitation, she grabbed her remote control and turned on her television as the reporters were quickly on the case along with the police and security. She saw that someone had decided that today of all days was a good day to try, well succeed and blow up the United Nations Headquarters. She now heard sirens as she did not think that she was going to need to put on the canary outfit but without a second thought, she went into her room and grabbed the outfit that was hanging up inside of her closet in the very back. [color=#000000][b]"Looks like it's time to suit up."[/b][/color] It seemed like that was every hero's saying but she was actually quoting it from Oliver, who use to say it a lot. She said as it seemed like the all black outfit put her in some sort of trance as she hear more and more sirens pass by. After changing and placing a mask over her face, she went out of her apartment onto the fire escape as she jumped down from one to the other before her feet were planted on the concrete ground beneath her in an alleyway. She hopped on her motorcycle and revved the engine before going in the direction of the United Nations Headquarters.[hr] [indent][indent][sub][h3][b][color=#000000]► Uɴɪᴛᴇᴅ Nᴀᴛɪᴏɴs Hᴇᴀᴅǫᴜᴀʀᴛᴇʀs // Pʀᴇsᴇɴᴛ Dᴀʏ[/color][/b][/h3][/sub][hr][color=#8B8B8B][b][sub]November 12[sup]th[/sup], 2017 // 6:35 P.M.[/sub][/b][/color][/indent][/indent] Laurel, well The Black Canary, zipped and zoomed through the streets that lead towards the headquarters as she even took side roads to make sure that she got there quickly. Whenever she did arrive, people could not help but turn their heads towards her as the engine of her motorcycle revved loudly until she turned it off. She got off of her bike now, which she parked a few feet away from the headquarters as she then turned heel and started to walk towards the building. While there, she seen other hero's or the like go towards the building now. She trailed not too far behind them but kept quiet because she wanted to gain some information, as well. She saw the display of the Sasquatch practically punch Deadpool through a wall of the United Nations building and did not know what to think right about now. [color=#000000][b][i]'Oh, great. Men.'[/i][/b][/color] She thought with an eye roll but decided that it was best to join their side and to make her presence known. After thinking about it for another moment or two, she decided to waltz up further beside the so called Goliath or Sasquatch of a man, Wolverine and Northstar, who was flying beside them. [color=#000000][b]"Figured you guys could use a woman's touch."[/b][/color] She muttered but did not look towards either one of them as she smirked a little, as well. It wasn't her usual team of heroes but if they were there to help then they were all right in her book. As they neared the scene, not even close enough but the smell of smoke and blood filled her nostrils. Small patches of fire still burned as she looked around at the carnage that laid waste before them. It was a gruesome sight to witness but she had seen a little bit worse than this. Just a little bit though. Most people were in a panic, others in a shock and others did not exactly know how to feel about the explosion. She parted her lips slightly apart as she wanted to speak but now wasn't exactly the best time to do so she just kept her comments to herself - For now, anyway.
