At Manning, Nighthawk looks for a skylight hatch over the warehouse, reasoning that a Green company like Manning would have photosynthesis panels and allow natural lighting. If such is not present, he instead lands on the roof to set up a perch. He stretches his senses wide as he prepares for a long night.

A flash of light briefly erupts on the roof of the Manning Building. The massive frame of a man can be seen momentarily before he crouches down. Taking a look around Goodguy sees if he can spot any of the others.

This time, since Goodguy knows the direction they came from, he can see the neon-red streak of light that is Street Demon coming from a good quarter-mile off; he and NightHawk watch as he darts in between cars, sprints up and down the sides of buildings, and then stops on a dime on the rooftop between them.

Street Demon looks around for a second, taking in the lay of the land.  "Yo, NightHawk," he says.  "Where Knockout at?  Anybody see her whip from here?"

Without waiting for an answer, Street Demon makes an intricate series of gestures; in the air before him springs up a series of glowing rectangles, each a meter or so across -- some of them appear to be television news feeds from the major networks; the rest look like displays from a stereo's graphic equalizer; from some unseen source, radio chatter from several police bands fills the air.

[PLAYER-GM] Street Demon will use the 60 Real Points he normally allocates for his "attack" power to create the following effect:

Who Watches The Watchmen:
Clairsentience (Radio Group), Discriminatory, Increased Arc Of Perception (360 Degrees), Rapid:  x10, Transmit, Reduced Endurance (0 END; +1/2) (52 Active Points); No Range (-1/2) Real Cost: 35
PLUS
Sight and Hearing Groups and High Range Radio Perception Images, +/-2 to PER Rolls, Area Of Effect (4m Radius; +1/4), Reduced Endurance (0 END; +1/2) (42 Active Points); No Range (-1/2), Only to create images/sounds of received HRRP signals (-1/2) Real Cost: 21

[/PLAYER-GM]


"Not as powerful as what I could do at the convention center," Street Demon explains, "but it should let us know if we guessed wrong wi' this place..."

Goodguy's eyes go wide as he sees the virtual screens appear. He looks them over then turns towards StreetDemon, "Any chance you can find some Magnum P.I. re-runs?"

"Who?" Street Demon replies; the permanent grin on his mask belies the confusion evident in his voice.  "Izzat that lanky-ass cracker with the talking car...?"

Goodguy just stares for a few seconds before shaking his head.

He says nothing but his smile shows amusement.

"I guess keeping our eyes peeled on the news is better use of our time anyway."

Nighthawk shakes his head. "Knockout never showed up for our meeting. Detective Broyko knows we are here, and his men are on standby if we succeed in capturing any Crushers. My other got me a wrist communicator as you suggested." When StreetDemon makes his joke, the winged fury looks confused, then says "I believe I have heard old people speak of that series. My Mother the Car?...."

Those with the senses to see will notice the SWAT vans parking at corners around five blocks from the structure. A single unmarked van pulls up to the front of the building and drops off two people.
