For a moment, Gina kissed Steve back, flooded with the relief of being alive and safe and no longer pinned down in a car without nearly enough extra added safety features. There was also the relief that Steve was unhurt and seemed emotionally all right, not looking as though he were going to go home and spend another night sitting in the empty bathtub because he'd fought humans as an Omegadrone again. But the moment couldn't last forever. The muffled pop and flash of a camera was enough to freeze her in place, then have her drawing back from him, though her fingers stayed buried tightly against his chest. People were staring at them. Lots of people, some of them with cameras. Some of them were police types, but a lot of them were just regular people, or reporters, or... she didn't even know. Way too many people staring, that was definitely the case.

 

She squirmed free of Steve's grip, then paradoxically turned and hid her face against his chest. "Let's go home, please," she entreated, her words muffled almost to inaudibility.

Harrier armored up again and picked up Gina, using his usual great care to keep her away from the spiky protrusions and razor-sharp edges of his armor. With that, and without another word, he took off into the sky, vanishing above the skyline long enough to activate the cloaking circuits in his power pike so he and Gina could make their way home. 

 

 

Bombshell wound up spinning one of her more elaborate stories to cover where Caradoc had gone during the fight and why their enemy, rogue SHADOW agents with an unknown agenda, had used a holographic projector to make him appear to be an Omegadrone in order to strike terror into the innocent civilians. 

 

It was well later that night, after she'd gone back to the dojo, that she got a telephone call that rang as coming from Steve's telephone.
