Confrontation

There was some distance between the couple and Russell, so it gave us some time to plan what we would say. However, unbeknownst to us, he knew we weren't able to coerce the couple. As we walked up to him he didn't let on one bit. He greeted us with a warm smile. That should have been a dead giveaway. "I see it went well." He says to us. "Very." I reply, trying to sound as confident as possible. "I take it they love superheroes?" He asks. "Everybody does." Olivia shouts. "Did you say you were from a movie that they have seen recently?" "No, we didn't need to." I tell him. Russell's eyes widen. "And they liked that you were original?" There is a brief pause. "Yes." I respond, nervously. Russell rubs his face. "There is only one thing I loath..." He casually pulls a switchblade out of his pocket. "And that's liars. I bet you didn't know I understand body language. I also can read lips a bit." I back up as he inches closer. Olivia stands firm. She raises her right hand, and like a gatling gun, she rapidly fires hearts into his chest. Pow! Pow! Pow! The rapid hearts create a strobe effect. She eventually stops. He is left in a daze. I quickly call out to our falcon. He seemingly swoops down out of no where. I make sure I have the yellow shield before we leap on the falcon, and fly off into the light blue sky once more.
