Re: Alyssa/Ned - Metropolis
He had to admit it was less cool when he was in danger just like it was less cool when he and Betty had been stuck on the Ferris wheel when fire dude had showed up.
When Ned realized one was after him he let out a scream, but moved on instinct. His backpack slid off of his shoulder and he swung it almost at the perfect time. The alien bug dude obviously didn't expect for that to happen and he was sent backwards a bit. Ned was momentarily stunned as if to say 'that worked?' and then he was looking around. There was a three story garage park nearby. "This way!" He started to run toward it.
