Meanwhile, In The Shadows BAD Things Happen Like Usual
Frost had heard about the sudden alien invasion from one of his familiars who had been keeping an eye on the Avengers Tower. Jesus, New York City had become one fuck of a place since he had been gone. He'd never noticed so many fucking tights running around before. Now there were aliens. Maybe he'd just not been paying attention before, but he seriously doubted he could have missed this much brightly colored chaos.
"Thanks, I'll be right there. Try not to get abducted." He hung up the phone on his familiar.
It would not be comfortable, as it was broad daylight, but this bore looking into. He would not make himself known to them, as it wasn't even close to that time, but it would be interesting to see how his possible future opponents handled real live fucking aliens. In seconds he had slathered a large amount of sunscreen all over himself. Taking only a moment to pick up his sunglasses and put them on, he zipped out the door and through the streets, back alleys, and rooftops across town to the Tower.
When he got there, it definitely looked like something out of a scifi movie all right. Fuck, most of them were even green like proper Martians ought to be. They were ugly bastards, but as he watched they seemed to be holding their own and causing enough destruction. He remained in the shadows of an alley across from the tower as he watched. Hey, it was at least an entertaining way to spend an afternoon.
Suddenly, several of the aliens slammed into the ground very close to him. He snorted and stepped closer to them and knelt down.
"Well what do you know..." He smirked, taking one by the shoulder and shaking him a little.
The technology on these aliens was unreal. Did they have blood? He sought it out in them and found that they did indeed. The aliens began to stir in front of him, starting to get back up. They were certainly tough little green men; most people wouldn't be alive after that kind of a landing. Before they could get up, he jerked them all up by their blood and brought them in close together. There were four of them. More were raining down elsewhere, but they were inconsequential as he didn't plan to leave his shadowy alley. They struggled against him, but it was futile when he had them by their blood.
"Now what would happen if I turned you guys? Alien vampires? Hey, I was wondering what was next. This is apparently it. Oh, you're gonna love me...you'll be better than you are even now."
The aliens had no idea what he was talking about, even though they all had translators and understood his English. However, they did understand his biting each of them when his fangs sank into their necks one by one. They winced, it was more painful than they thought physically possible by human bite. He meanwhile learned quite a bit about them as he took some of their blood with the bites. For example, he learned of their shapeshifting abilities. This was going to turn out to be a very profitable trip after all.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to turn you until we get back. I don't want you turning to ash on me now, do I? Oh no, I need you four alive and well."
He pulled out his cell phone and called his familiar, telling him to meet them with his van a few streets away. It would be impossible to speed back holding these four in tow, so he'd have to rely on the more conventional methods of transportation.
Things had just gotten a lot more interesting...
