Does she? If she- looks in the same place she pulled the forcefield and the lightning from...

Permalink

There's nothing that immediately finds people, but there's something that seems to point directions depending on certain input parameters...

Permalink

"...Maybe." The lightning ghost fades away, and a new one swirls in. She pokes at what sort of information this one needs.

Permalink

If she defines anything sufficiently precisely it can find the closest such thing!

...Person with powers rescuing or trying to rescue civilians trapped or endangered by Behemoth's rampage.

Permalink

That-a-way.

Permalink

She follows.

The direction is not towards the monster but it's... sort of roughly that way and off to the side a bit.

Permalink

Well. As long as they don't get too close.

Permalink

...the path might actually be too close, from where they are. They should perhaps detour.

Permalink

Yes. Around, through the alley.

Permalink

Probably a good idea.

Except there's another clap, another tremor, and then the buildings around them are crumbling, debris falling on them—

Permalink

Forcefield up-

This successfully prevents them from being smashed.

But are they now trapped?

Permalink

Yyyup.

Permalink

Well.

"Can your glowy person do something about this."

Permalink

Blink. "What glowy person?"

Permalink

"The... one that carried you out of the building."

Permalink

She blinks some more, opens her mouth, then closes it again. "That wasn't you?" Pause. Look down. "I'm a girl."

Permalink

"I mean. I'm a real girl. With real girl parts." Pause. "I wasn't. I mean I was a girl. But I had—boy parts. I have powers?"

Permalink

Uh. Whatever.

"That's how I saw you through the building."

Permalink

"Oh. But. I dunno what my powers are. You said there was a glowy person? What'd it do?"

Permalink

"Carried you. And blocked the lightning I shot at it. It disappeared when you woke up."
