“Wow! Thanks, Blue Eagle!” the child exclaimed excitedly. The superhero had swooped in a grabbed him, and they flew a few feet off the ground.
“Don’t mention it, sonny,” replied Blue Eagle.
He flew the boy over to his parents and set him down. The boy ran to his parents, then turned to back to the superhero and waved goodbye as Blue Eagle flew back to where the danger was.
His enhanced hearing picked up on the boy saying how cool the superhero was. Had he not been focused on trying to keep Queen Venus from hurting anyone, he might have felt a swell of pride.
Switch was struggling with the tree branches, punching at them as they attempted to reach out to grab him. His swings were successfully keeping them at bay, and Blue Eagle figured that Switch must have activated his superstrength. That meant that Switch would have between two to five minutes of enhanced strength before his powers gave out and needed to cool down.
“Need a hand?” asked Blue Eagle, landing next to Switch.
