A figure gracefully leaps and bounds from rooftop to rooftop, flipping and somersaulting as he went along. He dives off of a building and extends his right arm, curling his middle fingers.
Thwip!!
An opaque translucent stream had shot out of his arm as he fell, the line attactching itself to a building and stretching, as if threating to break under the weight of the traveler. But instead it stretches and tightens, allowing the swinger to round the courner neatly, he jumps off propelling himself further in the air between the city buildings. He extends his left wrist and shoots out another line, using his momentum to drastically swing him to the left. He kicks his leg out in order to push his weight and lets go. He drops into an open manhole cover and shoots another webline to the ceiling. He swings like a pendulum, positioning himself upside down and looks through the different tunnels tring to find the right one to go through.
"I keep forgetting... oh right! The left one!" he said to the open air. He uprights himself and swings in the direction of the tunnel, slinging another web as he didn't want to touch whatever was on the tunnel floor. Soon he lands in front of some kind of door, electronically sealed to keep out what didn't belong. He pulls out a card and holds it up to the scanner. A beam scans over it and he waits for the confirmation sound. But instead he's rewarded with a defiant buzzing sound, denying him entry to his own home.
"Ugghhhhhh." he groaned involuntarily, tipping his head back, "I thought Kitty fixed that..."
He pulls out his smartphone and presses the phone icon and presses the contact labled 'Camille'. After a few seconds of ringing an female voice greets him.
"Hey, Michael! Whats up?"
"Yeah, are you home? Or are Jenny or Cindy home?"
"Yeah! Why? Is something wrong?"
"Yeah. My key card isn't working. I need one of you guys to let me in."
"Okay! I'm coming!"
The phone clicked off and Michael tapped his foot as he waited. After a few more seconds the door opened to reveal a red-haired antromorphic wallaby girl in a beige sweatshirt and a red skirt.
"We were wondering when you were gonna come back." said Camille, folding her arms, "Made a bet what time it was gonna be."
"Who won?" asked Michael, stepping in and taking off his worn sneakers.
"Cindy. Me and Jenny have to do her chores for a week now. Great." said Camille, climbing the steps as Michael crawled along the wall beside her. They reached the door and Camille waited for him to open the door. Puzzled, he opens it, only to be greeted by the lights suddenly turning on and multiple voices shouting "SURPRISE!!!"
Michael is confused for a second but realized what this was.
His birthday party. His 19th birthday was today. He had been so busy patrolling the night before it had slipped his mind. A boy in a black long shirt and a beach blonde afro came up to him and gave him a fist bump.
"Eyy whats up my dude." said Matteo, shoving one hand in his pocket and doing his usual one leg lean.
"Nothing much dude. Hows working as Kittys lab assistant?" asked Michael, crossing his arms, "Better yet, how about telling me whats up with the door you guys were supposed to fix yesterday?"
"Oh! That was intentional. Kitty put a temporary refusal for your card to help stall for time in case we weren't prepared yet." said Matteo, "Luckily we wer-"
Matteo is cut off by a prissy ginger girl in a pink dress shoving herself between the two best friends.
"Hello, Michael~" said Vana Glama coyly, dragging her fingers across Michaels chest, her fingers rapping on his chest emblem.
"Hi Vana..." said Michael, slightly cringing away from the girl. He's seized by the arm and dragged away from her by furry orange hands. He finds himself being seated in front of a large cake, it had a giant collage shot of him in the various dimensions he had met the people in the very room they were all gathered in.
"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy Birthday dear Michael! Happy birthday toooo youuuuuuuuuu!!!!!"
Michaels smile beamed as bright as he could do without it stretching his face and hurting. All his friends and close family. All who joined him in his adventures and whom he saved the multiple worlds with.
