There was something about being in the air that Raven liked. The fresh air in general. The fact the air was clearer compared to down below. Less congestion, aside from birds. They were annoying at times, but less so than crowds of people. The biggest thing however for her, was the freedom. The freedom to go in any direction she pleased. Whether she was pushing her limit to see just how high she could go. Seeing how fast she could push herself. Or like now where she was just casually flying without a care in the world.
She had covered a fair few miles today. Having crossed many states. She hadn't been aiming for anywhere in particular. In fact it was sometimes a game for her to figure out from above just whereabouts she actually was. If she wasn't mistaken this time, then she was somewhere above San Francisco. She didn't mind it there. Then again she had yet to actually come across somewhere she despised yet.
She was dressed in her usual all dark attire. Her reasoning beyond liking black, was that any casual glance above would have her mistaken for a bird of some type. A large bird maybe. A bird minus wings. But a quick glance wouldn't raise too many questions.
She wasn't too far off from choosing to make a landing somewhere. In need of at least a small break of sorts. That thought however was dismissed as she spotted something brightly coloured in the not too far distance. There was no mistaking that it wasn't a bird. No bird was that bright pink. Plus it was much too large.
Curiosity getting the better of her she started to fly towards the direction of the bright pink thing.

Raven smiled slightly and nodded. "This place is a whole lot more laid back. I think that's what beckons me here." The difference was now more noticeable since she had tried to start paying attention. She could thank Sonnet for that. That said she still liked drifting from place to place.
She couldn't help the chuckle of the mention of awkward brushes. It was easy to see what Jack was getting at. "Oh I've been there one or twice. Maybe more." She continued to chuckle under her breath. She had long since stopped counting the number of instances she had, and that was even before the event had occurred.
"Your awkward brushes must've been something for you to have the need to carry that thing around." She gestured to towards Jack, meaning their little zapping gadget. She was still a little curious about that.
"You know anywhere around here that does a good cup of coffee this time of night?" She now asked. She had a need to get a small buzz of something, and caffeine was always a good pick me up.

Raven couldn't help but half snort as it was remarked that she wasn't from around the area. "Never ceases to amuse me when I'm told I'm 'not from around here'." She chuckled slightly under her breath. "Is my 'I'm not from here' badge showing?" She joked with a half smile.
"Don't worry yourself though. You don't owe me anything. I just hate to see someone being ganged up on like that." She gave a small dismissive shrug.
She shifted and leaned against the nearest wall, then glanced back to the former attackers. She then pointed over with a thumb. "Does stuff like this happen to you normally?" She asked. The fact the teen carried a weapon somewhat suggested that they at least felt threatened enough to carry something in the first place. She was just a little curious on that. They didn't exactly seem like someone who tended to get into bother, but that was her own impression.

"Well whatever that something just was, I'd say it packed a punch or two." Raven remarked with an eyebrow raised. If the teen was going to say anything more about it she figured they would have done it then and there.
Raven looked to the held out hand, then after a beat she took it. Making sure to keep the touch light to be on the safe side. There had been more than one person in which she had inadvertently broken hand bones. "No problem Jack." She nodded as she gave their hand a quick shake.
She thought briefly on the name. Leaning straight away towards male. But it was one of those names that could have easily been short for Jackie or Jacqueline. The curse of unisex names. She for now wasn't going to think too much about it.
As she was asked about what could be done to repay her, she gave a head a shake, and half waved her hand in dismissal. "Don't worry about it. You appeared to be in trouble, and I'm no stranger to trouble." She gave a partial admittance. She then gave them a grin. "Besides normally I'd just request to buy me a drink in thanks. But you don't exactly appear to be legal there." She let out a small chuckle.

At the question Raven paused, and seemed to ponder the question. That was a pretty good question. Just how long was she planning on staying about. Truthfully she didn't know. Staying in one place was a little alien to her. Other than up to her early teens she had been almost constantly on the move. Never staying around more than a few months. It hadn't always been down to her law breaking side either. Being somewhere for too long unless there was just cause made her a little jumpy. Granted back in her home country some of that had been down to fear of being found.
"For the moment I'll be around. Maybe a month or two. I'll see how it goes." Came her eventual answer.
There was always the possibility that Sonnet could keep her occupied enough to keep her attention. Granted it didn't mean that she wouldn't disappear for a day or two. Her flight made easy workings of urges to be elsewhere.
"Just give me a shout when you want me for something. Even if I'm elsewhere I can get back easy enough." She admitted.

Raven gave a brief nudge with her foot on one of the still forms, her chuckling under her breath. "Was that a taser or something?" She asked as she set her eyes on the teen. She wasn't a stranger when it came to tasers, not that she had ever used one. She had known someone who had a fondness for them, of no surprise she had known them inside of prison rather than outside.
Now she was closer towards the teen she settled her own sights on them. She stood by her initial guess of them being a teen. She however couldn't quite make out the gender. She wanted to lean towards a male, but then there was that soft spoken voice which gave nothing away. She didn't really want to make an assumption either. Just to be on the safe side. Instead she decided to see if they gave off any other hints as to what they were.
Her gaze flickered down slightly as they winced. Her figuring that they had managed to get hurt during the altercation.
At being asked what brought her to San Francisco she gave a brief shrug of her shoulders. "Oh, we could say that I just dropped in for a visit." She stated, her voice filled with amusement. Her angling to just how she had made her entrance. "Name's Raven. And just who did I happen to help out?" She asked, her gaze remained settled on the teen.

Seeing Sonnet taking the remains of the discarded fries Raven wasn't all that bothered. It didn't seem that the woman was the unfortunate type that gained weight just by what felt like looking at food. In a way she wouldn't have minded being like that. But alas she was destined to always watch her intake.
As a phone was pushed her way she picked it up and grinned slightly. "Gotta love the existence of disposable phones. Makes certain activities so much easier." She chuckled under her breath. She wasn't a stranger to it. Her own mobile was the same. Basic, and less of a pain when she accidentally broke them. She promptly put in the number before sliding it back over.
"I guess I'll be awaiting your call." She spoke as she got back onto her feet. She paused for a moment, just in case Sonnet wanted to shake hands or something in those lines.

Raven stood there a moment as she assessed the situation once more, particularly now that a few had been dealt with, and with ease at that. Her attention was briefly caught by the teen who had what reminded her of a stun gun, not that she had used one before. If this is what happened around here, then she could understand why someone would have one.
As the final attacker decided to make a move towards her, she merely shook her head. With a simple punch she heard a crack, as what was a nose shattered. Mild compared to what she was capable of. But quick enough to drop them like a sack of spuds onto the ground.
Stepping over the form she casually walked towards the teen, shifting a few strands of hair from her face. "You okay kid?" She spoke up, her gaze casting down at the pair that had been shocked. Both seemed to be fairly out of it. "Nice. Think they'll be feeling that for a while." She spoke in mild amusement, a smile playing over her lips.

Raven rose an eyebrow slightly at Sonnet's somewhat abrupt answer. "Uh-huh." She uttered, in a manner in which more or less meant that she didn't exactly believe her. However she decided to let it drop. Even if she was still very much curious on the history there.
She grabbed a napkin and ran it over her hands, even if she had long since stopped touching the fries there was still that minor hint of grease that she wanted rid of.
"So what's the best way to be in contact then?" She figured she might as well find out, particularly if there was any targets in mind that needed taking care of.

With her still keeping that arm locked in place, Raven peered back towards the teen to make sure they weren't getting into further trouble. From the seems of things the attention was more placed on her instead. Something she was somewhat used to, and in all manner of ways. Trouble granted was normally at the top of that list, so this was nothing new.
She shifted the male she had hold of via that locked grip, barely paying attention to the expression over his face. Her own attention on the small gathering of the gang. Her witnessing a blade wasn't anything new. It was something she tended to look out for, mostly out of habit of dealing with shanks while in prison.
She had her own way of dealing with multiple people. Jerking the arm she held towards her, she used the males own weight to twist the arm behind his back. Then with a sharp strong shove she let go, in order to send the bulk to towards the one with the blade. She might as well have been throwing an empty cardboard box with the lack of effort required. It was a quick and easy way for her, more or less doing the two birds and one stone method.

Raven chuckled slightly under her breath, really she should have expected that response from Sonnet. Despite not really knowing the woman it just struck her as something she would say. "Guess I should've expected that. Who really wants to deal with a Hero." She commented with a brief wave of her hand.
As Sonnet then told her about one particular Hero, she ended up leaning forward a little. More from curiosity now. "A high kill rate eh? Sounds like the guy is more like us than an actual Hero." She remarked. She was somewhat intrigued by that notion. Although she wouldn't say it, it was exactly the type of person that she would love to mess about with. To see just how far she could push to make them break.
"Take it this, Tank, is one you have a personal experience with." She casually leaned back once more.

Raven looked on over towards the teen who was currently doubled over after being hit in the gut. Getting winded like that was always something that took a little time to recover from. She figured that perhaps just her presence would help give them a chance to be able to at least stand fully again. Then again that depended on the braincells of the current group. Her initial thought on that however was that there was likely barely one braincell floating between them all. Just a group of Neanderthals. Picking on what they thought were the weak.
She didn't bare too much surprise as one of the group threw a punch towards her. She merely rose a hand up and caught the fists in her palm before it could make contact. A feat that looked much too simple. She held the fist in place, not allowing any movement, locking the entire limb in the pose.
"Now now. That wasn't very nice of you was it. Did your mother never teach you to not hit a poor defenceless woman?" She remarked as a grin began to spread over her lips.

Raven rose an eyebrow then scoffed at Sonnet telling her not to be an idiot. "Great advice you got there." She stated more in a good humoured way.
She grinned as Sonnet went into a slightly more detailed explanation, her expression slowly turning into a more thoughtful one. Her actually taking note of how metas were currently being regarded and treated. Now she thought about it, there was a distinct difference between other places she had been. That in a sense made it more of a challenge to deal with. Now that was something she thought she would be able to deal with.
"Okay, I think I can deal with that." She gave a brief nod.
"Can't say I've really dealt with many of these so called Heroes. Though that could just be down to me not hanging around for long." She gave Sonnet a look of curiosity. "Any in particular you'd say to watch out for?" She now asked her. The more information she got the better.

Raven kept on observing from above. Her continuing to smoke on her cigarette, which she had managed to keep lit up. It appeared that the little gather below was certainly more for sinister purposes. Considering the size of those that were hounding the teenager she wasn't so certain that the teen was able to handle it.
Still she watched to see just how the teen would react. So far they seemed to be going on the defensive. She wasn't certain that heading towards one was a good move or not. Just as she was wondering whether there was an ability or something that was going to help, she spotted something in their hand. Not that she could make out fully from the distance exactly what it was. Apparently it wasn't all that helpful since they ended up with a fist in their stomach. A punch like that could easily wind someone enough so they wouldn't be able to retaliate at all.
She had an internal debate with herself for the briefest of moments, then flicked her cigarette down towards the alleyway. She soon followed suit, by dropping down close by. "Now that wasn't the nicest of things to do. Now why don't you nice folks go and pick on someone your own size?" She spoke up as she casually strode on over.
