Unfortunately though, after such a great start he has to go and rain on your parade.
<span class="mu-r">"Well if you can explain it to the court, they tend to go... easier on mutants- er, superhumans, sorry... as a first time offender they probably won't throw the book at you, but then you did rob a bank?"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Ehehehe, likes my name... wait, what are you saying?"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"If you come with me, I'll take you to the police. Do everything I can to help, say you surrendered and cooperated and all that, they like that and it sounds good."</span>
He'd moved towards you and put his arm around your shoulder, in what you thought was friendly gesture, if a bit forward. When he starts talking about your crime and the authorities though, you realize (and try not to panic) that it's an attempt to get you to lower your guard and cooperate. Give yourself up so he can hand you over to be arrested.
<span class="mu-b">"What?! No! I'm not surrendering or cooperating!"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"Ugh... please? I saved your life, you can't make this easy?"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"You didn't save nothing! You'll never take me alive hero!"</span>
Annoyed and upset, you try and shove him away but aren't strong enough to budge him. You do manage to throw his arm off though, and clutching your trash bag of valuables you break into a sprint to get away from him. Where? It doesn't really matter to you, just away from him and away from the direction of the police. Approaching the edge of this building's rooftop, make a running jump much to his exclaimed alarm. Whereas you may have hesitated before, after your slingshot escape from above the 65th floor of the First American tower, a drop from this ten-story building's roof doesn't even phase you.
<span class="mu-b">"-AAAGH-oof! Ouch! Gugh!"</span>
Well maybe it should have concerned you, given the roughness of your fall. From your running leap you end up colliding smack dab into the brick wall of the adjacent building across the gap, falling all the way down and hitting a fire escape before landing on an air conditioning unit. Thanks to your elastic body you're barely even injured (though it does hurt some) but you're definitely left dazed from the rough fall, as you try and clamor off the humming machinery and drop to the ground of the alleyway.
Struggling to stand up with a wobbly body, around about the time as the hero descends to the alleyway for a fine landing.
<span class="mu-r">"Come on Stretch Goals... is just Stretch okay? You give it much longer and one of the others will come for you... believe me, you don't want that."</span>
He moves beside to help you stand up, though you shrug off his hands. Fortunately it does indeed seem that you've escaped the police for the time being (sirens audible not far away though), at least until they get a helicopter out to search for you. But like an aerial response, this guy can fly so you wonder how you'll be able to escape him. Scrambling for ideas, since if one hero is here now then it probably won't be long before others find you.
