As she landed again she chuckled and pushed his chest, which in turn pushed herself away from him and onto her heels on which she rocked before standing before her father. Her rock, he had always been there and as much as she hated to admit it him being in the CCPD made him a pretty useful source of information, something the Captain had caught onto before telling him that he had to be careful with what he said to his daughter. Iris on her part didn’t try and pry [i]sensitive[/i] information out of him anymore, she didn’t want him to lose his job after all. Instead she simply used him to get the same information all the other news outlets got, albeit a little bit faster than everyone else. Her boss had called her ‘Central Cities Fastest Reporter’, if he only knew. [color=f49ac2]“Hey Sweetheart.”[/color] He looked her up and down, he always performed a customary scan to make sure she was okay. Iris doubted that he even realised he did it anymore. She took it as flattery as it was intended. A fathers job after all to look after his daughter, if only he knew what she was capable off. [color=f49ac2]“Before we start, the official statement of CCPD is this [i]Hydro-Man[/i] as he called himself is a potential suspect in the murder case of Alex Raymond. We don’t yet have a motive, but the method of death seems to be blunt force trauma. A [i]lot[/i] of force was used, so if it wasn’t Hydro-Man it was definitely some form of metahuman.”[/color] He sighed as he leaned against the hood of his car. [color=f49ac2]“This is crazy sweetheart, things used to be so simple. Water was wet, gravity made things fall. Now? There’s a man who can fly, a woman who can catch planes and there’s one in central city who can move like a blur. It’s ridiculous.”[/color] [color=f7976a]“Can I quote you on that?”[/color] She chuckled slightly. [color=f49ac2]“No of course not, quote me on asking all these freaks to turn themselves in, or stop using their powers to destroy and disrupt my city. It’s getting out of hand.”[/color] [color=f7976a]“Can do Dad.”[/color] He stood up, dead serious. [color=f49ac2]“As for you, you know that if you ever see any of these guys or any form of danger-”[/color] [color=f7976a]“I run the other way, of course Dad. I know.”[/color] He smiled, and she smiled back. [color=f7976a]“Don’t you have anything else you can give me on this Hydro-Man? All you’ve given me is information that I could have gotten from the mayor. In fact-”[/color] She scanned her notes. [color=f7976a]“-all you’ve told me that the mayor hasn’t is that he was killed by way of brunt force trauma. You have to give me something more to go on-”[/color] She put a hand on his shoulder. [color=f7976a]“-after all, what use is having a father in CCPD if you can’t get any useful information from him when you’re trying to write a news report.”[/color] She sighed out of false frustration. [color=f7976a]“Anyway I’ve got to go, I’m meeting Barry at Jitters.”[/color] William West looked more awkward than he had ever seemed. [color=f49ac2]“Iris, about Barry-”[/color] she raised her hand to stop him. [color=f7976a]“-I don’t have time for the whole Barry romance talk. I have to run.”[/color] She turned and walked away. Iris heard him shout after her, but she didn’t have time for that now.
