When they were done in the back, Scott and Maya walked out with their hands clasped behind their backs, whistling innocently as if nothing had happened.
Big Marv eyed them with tired, half-open eyes.
He didn't need to see what they were doing; the loud moans were enough to clue him in.
Maya's hair was messy, their clothes were roughed up, and they both had dust and cobwebs on them.
"Maybe next time you two should get a actual room. There are plenty of cheap hotels in Metro City."
The fat man slammed his fist on the counter.
"MY STORAGE ROOM IS NOT ONE OF THEM!"
Scott and Maya quickly made calming gestures, trying to ease his anger.
"Relax, Mister Marvin…" Scott said.
"Yeah, we even helped you organize some stuff in the back, you know!" Maya added.
"You should be thankful, really."
"Mhm!" she nodded.
As they spoke, they slowly backed out of the store, their words suspiciously calm.
Big Marv glared at them with annoyance.
In fact, he was fuming.
But the moment he looked at the sexy cover of the limited edition Rope Girl comic book in his hands, he started to calm down.
Smiling to himself, Big Marv kissed the cover again.

Maya and Scott walked out of the comic book store, each with a backpack on their shoulders.
The sun was setting, giving the street a warm, golden glow as they made their way down the sidewalk.
Both of them looked a little flushed.
"That was… fun."
Scott calmly said as he adjusted his backpack.
Maya bit her lip to keep from smiling too wide.
"Yeah, it… kinda was~"
She looked up at him, trying to play it cool.
"Unexpected, but… fun."
"I mean, not what we planned when we came out for comics, but hey, no complaints here."
Scott chuckled and held her slender hand as they walked.
Maya rolled her eyes, though a blush crept up her neck.
"Yeah, well, don't get too used to it. We still have to finish that debate about 3.5e and 4e."
"Right, because obviously the 4e is be—"
Scott paused mid-sentence.
His attention was suddenly caught by the large display TV in the electronics store window they were walking by. The news was playing, showing unsteady footage of something smashing through buildings in the downtown area.
"Holy crap, is that…?"
Scott trailed off and stepped closer to the screen.
Maya glanced in the same direction.
… Huh?
Her heart sunk when she saw the news broadcast.
On the screen, Miss Mercury was trapped under a pile of rubble, struggling while a massive mechanical behemoth loomed over her. The scene was pure chaos—fire, smoke, and people running for their lives.
