"It's good to meet you, Vanessa. Ha, well, like I said, you don't really have to, this vignette really is all there is to see. No, it isn't safe, at all. And the people running the show are constantly undercutting our police force, to line their pockets. Oh?" *Helon raises a knowing eyebrow* "No, my folks live up in Astor City. I moved here after the war. It's cheap with the steep discount they give veterans."

"Thank you! I see. I thought this was HeroCity, you'd think it would be lead by dogooders. I guess I was mistaken about several things." *Smiles a weak smile* "Oh I see. Well thank you for serving. What was your designation? As far as like army, navy, you know?"

"It gained that name after people with powers decided to do some good around here, it's original name was 'New Olympus,' if you can imagine. Makes you think they knew about the radiation, and what it'd do to people." *grins back* "Ha, don't mention it. Marines." *Helon glanced down at his shoes for a moment* "I was a medic."

"Huh, I actually didn't know that. You into history, or just been around a while?" *Smiles a real smile* "Nice! I bet you saved a lot of lives then? Did you like being a Marine Medic?" *She asks curiously*

"I've been here since before it was finished up top. They saw I'd been a medic so they gave me some basic medical supplies, sent me some injured construction workers now and then to fix up." *He smiles* "My soap-box apartment became a makeshift clinic. If I had a patient overnight, I'd sleep on the floor." *Helon's jaw clinches* "I did what I could."

"Amazing how such a young city can tumble so quickly when the wrong people are on top." *She mused* "You could run for office you know!" *She joked* "Sounds like you have a giving heart sir." *Vanessa realising she touched a nerve returns the favour of his not pressing her about her parents and changes the subject* "Is it always like this?" *Waves hand around them* "I was going for a walk and I gave up after I got waylaid by a crazy hot sauce spewing imp and the LochNess monster." *Realising how funny that sentience sounded she stifled a laugh*

"Yeahaha. Nah, I couldn't do half as much good in an office as I can down here. Yeah, we get calm moments, usually because the chaos is on one of the other levels that day. Er, 'levels', stories? Whatever you call 'em." *He says laughingly*

"Well I hope we get brake soon, I don't want my windows busted out by a flying food items. Oh! Speaking of food! I almost forgot." *Shakes head* "Do you know any stores around here? I need to stock my pantry some."

"Most of us put bars over our windows, you should look into it. Oh, there's a Stuffmart over in the business and comerce district."*He points across the way* "Every level has one, though they vary in size and quality. This one's pretty good, they have fresh produce and a decent selection of meats."
OOC: I imagine it's something like the old Japanese SkyCity 1000 pictured below.

"That sounds like a good idea. I should have a look" *Looks the way he points* "Perfect, thanks! Glad there's good produce..." *Seems to be thinking for a minuet* "Why are there "levels"? No other city I've been in has been quite like this one." *She says chuckling a little.*

OOC: I was thinking The Wheal form Freemakers, so basically the same thing but space. Looks good!

"It's an 'innovative new design,' building tower cities so we can reclaim bits of nature. That's the concept, anyway. Well that and having everything a person needs on each level so they don't feel inclined to ever want to leave. Not to visit other levels, or go on vacation outside the tower."

"That seams like a good thought, and also a controlling plot at the same time. Do think they really do it to help people?" *She asks looking sceptically*

"They probably think they do, but if micromanaging people is your way of looking out for them, you're only really looking out for yourself." *Helon looks over his shoulder* "I've heard of some powered individuals who've tried to go out, but that's all there was to hear. They disapear without any discernable traces. And you never hear about regular people's attempts to leave. It's such a well kept secret that no one moving in knows, and no one's allowed to warn newcomers or else."

*Cold fear runs down Vanessa's back and she shivers.* "You mean I can't leave now that I moved here?" *She asked. Her eyes going wide*

"You and everyone not on the top, sister. Like I said, leaving you level is dificult, but leaving the Herocity is practically impossible. Where are we walking to, again?" *He smiles sheepishly*
OOC: I actually have no idea what to do from here.XDXDXD
