Taka and Yasuha were both in the back of a taxi, getting driven to the train station. They had returned the car they had stolen the day prior, feeling bad for the owner. It was about 7:11 PM, the sun setting and hiding behind the tall buildings which scraped the sky. Traffic delayed their trip, which agitated the two. "Hmph!" said Taka, "They could already be there! What'll we do if they're not there anymore?" Yasuha replied, "Exactly! What if they go through with whatever weirdo plan they've come up with! They're planning something terrible. I can feel it."
"Me too, kid." said Taka. The two stayed silent for a while, until Yasuha broke the silence by asking, "Didja train today? I trained earlier today. I gotta make sure I really beat Starman's shit in." He clenched his fist and closed his eyes, becoming furious at the mere thought of Starman. Taka said, "Well, I didn't exactly train, but I did visit my friends today. My old band-mates. We hung out and played some of our music. They got into some stupid argument over which one of our songs was the best, though. They went out later, but I had to go because of this."
"Neat." replied Yasuha, "I didn't really have friends. Well, before meeting you. I mostly kept to myself. I did meet a few people online, though I'm not sure if that counts." Taka replied, "Damn. Sorry 'bout that. Well, at least you've got me, now. Or am I too lame?" Yasuha laughed and said, "Hell no! You aren't the average boring 30 year old dude, you're cool man! You introduced me to this bizarre world of superpowers and shit! I'm still shocked that I'm able to spray out flesh by tapping to some rhythm!" Taka chuckled and said, "Well I'm glad to hear I'm not boring!"
The taxi had now successfully gotten out of traffic, and was now continuing down it's path to the train station. Taka noticed a huge group of birds, flying in the sky. Taka said, "Yo, Yasuha. You see that? That's a shit ton of birds." Yasuha said, "Yeah, it is. Odd. I wonder what goes through their little heads." Suddenly, the massive flock of birds began to circle around the taxi. Then, they all swarmed it.
"Wait- the fuck?!" yelled Taka, "These birds, they're attacking the car!" The taxi driver began to panic as he drove the car, unable to see the road. Due to his inability to see where he was going, he crashed the car. The driver fell unconscious, and Taka and Yasuha were thankfully saved by their seat-belts (always wear your seat-belts!). Taka yelled, "What the fuck!? What happened?!" Yasuha exclaimed while coughing, "These birds- I think they're part of an attack! I remember that person working with Starman, their name is Venus, I believe. They used their ability when we encountered Starman in his home! Their ability involved birds! I think- I think this is them! They're attacking us!"
Taka yelled, "Well I think we can take on birds! C'mon Yasuha, lets find 'em!" The two exited the car, and were immediately attacked and swarmed by an onslaught of birds. Taka quickly used Salad Days to shoot down the flying menaces. Although he killed a considerable amount, the onslaught continued. Yasuha tried to push through the flock, but was pushed back by the enormous amount of birds.
The birds also began to attack everyone else on the road and sidewalks, causing the area to clear up. Everyone left, well- everyone but a single person. A person wearing a bucket hat was not bothered by the swarm of birds. They were Shocking Blue Venus, a sibling of Starman.
