[color=ADEAEA][b]"Five now."[/b][/color] Aesthetic repeated what she heard from Spindle up in the sky. This wasn't a situation that Aesthetic could help out with. Her powers weren't good for hostage situations like [i]this[/i], but then again, who had a good power for this situation? She wasn't exactly sure, outside of possibly someone with Master Qualities... or maybe someone with a similar powerset to Myrddin. There could be multiple ways this would work out, but for the time being, she was still going to stand there and watch.

Five lives are on the line, and no doubt more will be on the way soon, too.

Goddammit, where was the Final Guard? For a moment, Aesthetic thought that this was the reason for everyone hating capes. There were the villains that took people hostage, or rather in this case a radical that wanted a potentially good thing to be destroyed, and there were the heroes that never seemed to show up on time. Of course, the situation was more complicated than that, and she just kinda hated it. She hoped that her blog focusing on pro-cape politics was going to help things out. It wouldn't do much, but it'd at least help get the word out.

Regardless of anything, Aesthetic looked up to a larger building and raised her eyebrow. [color=adeaea][b]"I could probably get a bit better of a vantage point..."[/b][/color] She stepped back a little bit, looking at the taller building in front of her, before she ran towards it. Near the end of the building, her legs extended out as she rose into the air, jumping up high before clinging onto the building, waiting for her legs to come back up to their normal size. 

[b][color=adeaea]"Nice... now to climb."[/color][/b] Her arms stretched out, reaching up to grab a ledge as she pulled herself higher, right up to the roof of the building. Once finally up, she stepped towards the main street that laid before the situation. She could see a lot more than the other building, though that certainly meant that Spindle could probably see Aesthetic now. Though, before she could react, Aesthetic raised her hands to a visible "not engaging" pose. She wasn't about to have a sixth life find its way onto the line.

It was starting to get down to the wire--where were the Guard capes?!
