My lungs burned. Cold air stung my throat.
That hasn't happened in a long time.
My legs ached as I leapt to the next rooftop. My arms sore from the climbing and swinging and pushing. Parts of my suit trying to repair the tears that had sunk past the armor, littering my body with red seams of blood.
Tears that sunk past into me. And those swathes of gashes and scratches kept bleeding blood that escaped from those wounds from every movement of the muscles and skin, unable to mend.
I couldn't stop moving.
I need time. I need distance. I need more.
I need them.
My fingers could barely hit the buttons. Panic outside of my own flooded me. Every instinct screaming at me.
My hand barely held steady. I typed a location.
Then a phrase.
<NEED HELP>
I hit send.
Then a new flash of pain flooded me before I could spare another glance at the screen.A black mass swooped past civilians, soaring like a baseball into the pitcher's glove.
Only this pitcher's glove turned out to be a car, sitting near a parking meter and devoid of any person.
Until now as the mass sunk into it, nearly cleaving the vehicle in two as it flipped over and over before burying into a wall.
People screamed. Others took out their phones. Many of which backed away from the scenes while others peered closer. It was all quite the spectacle indeed.
Anyone could see tufts of brown hair poking out from a suit devoid of color. Crimson colored the suit that only begun repairing itself, crawling slowly.
Painfully slowly.
Only one symbol gave any clue as to this person's identity. Mask half torn, one half-lidded hazel eye and a lens peered upwards as legs and arms began trying to stand upright, only to slip on the concrete and fall back onto the ground.
Another attempt was made to stand, much slower and less steady than the last.
Someone zoomed in on the scene with their camera.
The insignia was a half-torn spider.

OOC:
- Yeah, this is indeed happening.
- Take from it what you will.
- Assume that if you know this person, you have indeed been texted.
