HRNI: This is Candace Farraway with Heroes Rising News International, reporting live from McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, where the stream of heroes arriving hasn’t stopped all day. Over the past few hours, we’ve received several reports of heroes going toe-to-toe with vile invaders from the Legion. We are happy to report that some true heroes are assembling here in order to defend their home—heroes such as Flying Fury, who has just arrived. Mr. Fury, how was your flight?
Flying Fury: *grins* As you can see, I had plenty of leg room. With my superpowers, I fly first class every time!
HRNI: If only the airlines knew your secret! Now, could you tell us what you’re going to do here in Las Vegas?
Flying Fury: Every now and then, my fellow heroes and I decide to take a weekend off from fighting the Legion and just let loose. And what would be a better place to do that than here in Las Vegas? We’re looking forward to hitting the slots, unnecessarily using our X-ray vision, and lots and lots of bourbon shots!
HRNI: Mr. Fury, you do know that the city is currently facing a major crisis and is on the verge of being exterminated?
Flying Fury: Damn, why does that always seem to happen when I take a weekend off? What is it this time? Has the Suit had a few too many mojitos or something? Please tell me it’s not ninjas again...
HRNI: Were you seriously not aware that the Legion is launching a major offensive in Las Vegas as we speak?
Flying Fury: You’re kidding, right? I guess I’d better get back to the hotel and get some gambling in while it’s still standing.*fwoosh*
HRNI: Did he seriously just fly off toward the strip? *sigh* This has been a special report from Heroes Rising News International. We’ll keep you updated on the latest developments in Las Vegas and around the globe. After the commercial break, we will a story on the disturbing new trend of children intentionally exposing themselves to radiation in hopes of developing latent abilities. Our expert, Dr. Fulkerth, will explain to you why it’s neither cool nor a superpower to glow in the dark. Stay tuned!
