Magitek tries to remain calm amist the sound of sirens approaching..." Listen now is not the time for explainations, I need my belongings.... if anything you are the one who has some explaining to do. Me and this girl here just saved you...what were those things ? but before you answer me we must leave...NOW!

"Saved ME? HAH! You should've seen what I did to their buddies earlier! I'd show you, but there's nothing left of them; they just kinda dispersed when I slugged them hard enough! You caught the tail end of this rumble, machine-man," the young lady says with gusto.
"And for someone supposedly on the 'right' side of the Law, you seem to be awful nervous, Mister! I should just wait and turn you and this fancy pop-gun of yours over to the boys n' blue," the aqua-girl says, still eying you suspiciously, then takes a glance at Marion. "But you two have caught my curiosity, against my better judgement," she says, lowering the weapon before slinging it over her shoulder. "Well, I'd invite you to my world but you're not Atlantean, and holding your breath plus speaking doesn't mix... you two have some place in mind?"
The sirens get louder. Off in the distance, less than a mile away, Marion can see the glowing and flashing of police vehicles, an ambulance and a few fire engines, blaring their horns through intersections and making their way to Shoreline Drive. At the apartment complex across the street, a few more people have come out, scratching their heads as they inspect the banged up vehicle.

"I.... I'm not from around here. The authorities wouldn't understand the nature of my technology, and I do not have the time to sit in a cell trying to explain." Maybe Marion can help.

Marion floats back down near the others and turns to Magitek. "You got anything that can turn us invisible? It's getting awfully crowded around here! I've got a place nearby, but I doubt we can go anywhere now without being seen."

The first police vehicle arriving on the scene has its mirror-side spotlight aimed at the wrecked car's dented hood and imploded windshield; however, someone nearby talking to the officers in car is pointing in the direction of the beach, and the spotlight can be seen slowly tracking over to the bordering grass area making its way to the sand in an erratic panning and searching motion. It is getting closer but hasn't spotted the trio yet.

As the tech-mage looks at Marion with a baffled expression and simply shrugs his shoulders, the blonde in swimwear says, "There's no time for dilettantish street magic! It's still fairly dark but won't be for long -- let's just get going!" To Magitek and Marion's astonishment, the girl dips momentarily then launches skyward thirty feet off the ground spraying them both with water and sand before coming to a hover. "Well, are we leaving or what?" she says looking back at them.

Marion flexes her wings and glances at Magitek. "Need a lift?"

Magitek pulls a silver orb out of his pocket and twists it counter clockwise until hears 3 clicks and begins to levitate and says to Marion" If you hold my hand can keep up"

There is a gasp from the small but growing crowd outside as three dark silhouettes rise and disappear into the darkness. Fingers are pointed skyward and a police spotlight searches in vain catching only the glimpse of a winged-ankle for a split second before reaching the maximum range of the light's upward rotation.
The pony-tailed blonde with strange, quad-barreled weapon still slung securely over shoulder, leads the way; but finding Marion trailing somewhat, awkwardly trying to pull Magitek in tow, she circles back in a broad loop and swoops in from behind to grab the tech-mage just between the shoulder blades. "I got'm... just move, sister!" she says, freeing Marion to take the point and the airborne trio rapidly accelerates towards Marion's chosen destination.

I'll lead them to the roof top entrance of my apartment - with a strong admonition to NOT touch anything. I want to put some neosporin or something on the spear cut, and give blondie wingfoot a chance to explain herself.
