New York, the city that never sleeps, which meant that a new scoop was always on the horizon. However, for April O'Neil it wasn't ice cream she was covering, but pizza. The star reporter from Channel 6 found herself outside of a new joint in New York City. The place itself was all the rage, gaining a bit of buzz and plenty of customers as April stood outside of the bustling building. "Hello folks at home, April O'Neil from Channel 6 News! Today we decided to make a stop for a treat here in the Big Apple! The hottest pizza place in town right now is this pizzeria, strangely named "Best Served Cold," but make no mistake the pizza's as hot as the money burning a hole in the customers' pockets. This spot has seemingly taken over the taste buds of everyone who's tried a slice!" As the camera kept rolling, April was soon inside, finding herself surrounded by others. She continued her news segment, the camera man covering the scene as April interviewed people enjoying the pizza. All the

Patrolling Gotham from the shadows was a simple task for Stephanie Brown, whose own capabilities in stealth had once hidden her from Batman. It was a simple task for her to avoid both prying eyes and any security cameras that were in the area, a living shadow in the night, like many other members of the Bat-family. As Stephanie, in her Spoiler identity, landed on a rooftop. The area was a part of Gotham that was less populated. The buildings tall, but old, however one building looked to be fairly well maintained. It was the 10/6 Milliner, or at Hat store, one that was by none other than Mad Hatter, according to Stephanie's research. Although he had been apprehended, there was still the matter of scoping out his old lair in order to see what he might have planned. The large hat on top of the building was a whimsical giveaway. As she entered the place, she could see the whimsical, wonderland themed place. Going through the place, she saw notes and scribblings, letters from Tweedle Dee

"Parker! Are you done with all your gawking yet?! We need those pictures sometime this year!" "Hey, c'mon, JJ, I'm doing my best here! It's gonna take me a minute to get the right set of photos," Peter said into the phone. He was rolling his eyes, already imagining the vein on Jameson's temple throbbing. "Well hurry it up! This Oscorp acquisition is hot news and we need to finish this thing before one of the other papers scoops us! I want those pictures by tonight or you're fired!" "Right, on it, JJ," Peter said tiredly before he hung up the phone and sighed before muttering. "Sheesh, I've had soundwaves from Shocker less harsh than that." "Hm? Did you say something, Peter?" asked Gwen Stacy. Peter turned, seeing his girlfriend had turned from the various screens in the Life Foundation building. "No, just the usual. Jameson wants a me to hurry up with the photos." "Really? Well, after my interview, maybe you can have one of the Life Foundation's newest employee," said Gwen with a

Link and Zelda's journeys around Hyrule were long and extensive, especially as often as Zelda loved to survey areas to catalog in her Sheikah Slate. It was especially taxing for her, though, given Zelda wasn't as used to physical activity as Link. The hero was turning his head, seeing that Zelda was walking behind him, although the princess was huffing and puffing while she tried to catch up. Climbing a hill, she leaned against a tree, panting all the while. Link looked to her, asking if she was alright before she started to speak. "I'm...quite fine, I just...huff...need a moment to catch my breath." Zelda's words came out showing just how tired she was, even as the princess tried to smile. Link, seeing she was tired, offered her a potion, care in his blue eyes. The princess gave him a gentle smile back before she took the bottle and drank, soon feeling refreshed. "Thank you. Perhaps I do need to do something so I can keep up with you more easily." Link tried to think on

Samus Aran was more used to being a bounty hunter than being hunted, even after all her adventures. Marked for capture by the Galactic Federation after destroying dangerous data on X-Parasites the group had covertly collected, she had been living on the run for some time. Elusive and experienced though she was, Samus was less worried about singular instances of combat and more worried about attrition. It was no lie that Samus was among both the most dangerous and tenacious survivors across the Galaxy, and she had come out on top time and again when the odds were against her, but the institutional power and sheer number of troops at their disposal meant sooner or later she would be overwhelmed by the quantity of combatants more so than the quality. Another complication was that a number of well-paying jobs dying up. It did take a lot to finance Samus' operations, but now she had to find work that paid well enough without going against her own tastes. As Samus checked her encrypted

A grimace flickered across the face of Satsuki Kiryuin, her wrists bound behind her and her body nude as she heard the giggle of Nui. She was left, waiting for her mother, Ragyo. Satsuki stood tall, her mind firm as she tried to calculate a way out of the situation, but starvation made that harder. She had not been given food in three days, with her having been searched thoroughly. Bereft of any tools, she simply had to wait and hope a better opportunity would manifest itself. However, dramatic as always, her mother came into the room as the floor parted, revealing a rising platform. Satsuki looked down, seeing a great banquet table, smelling a number of expertly cooked meals. From what she saw a whole, roast turkey was the main course, with steamed carrots and rice. The turkey itself was stuffed, the added food perfectly within the cavity while there were other platters still. Smoked salmon, perfectly seared steak, slathered in grilled onions and diced mushrooms, Even a large

The strange new planet Samus had found herself on had the woman on guard, feeling wary as she walked into some vast, ancient ruins. Word of a lost Chozo colony had reached her ears, one she wondered might hold secrets or information in relation to the culture that had raised her. She was walking there, her Varia suit scanning and her arm canon raised while she went towards the structures. Scanners indicated there was no life nearby, hostile or otherwise, but that wouldn't preclude any robotic threats. Deciding to stay on her toes, Samus walked up to the building, entering it, seeing the carvings and art that filled her with a sense of nostalgia. It was indeed a Chozo building, but it looked old, though she couldn't guess how old it was. Instead, she wondered what survived into the present, and how to see if there was more she could learn about her adopted people. Traveling inside, she saw a number of collapsed pillars and signs of damage, from laser blasts to crushed rubble. The

The brilliant sun of Costa Del Sol rained down on the travelers from Midgar, the sandy shores and clear waters a nice change of pace. The group had gotten to rest, relax, and forget their mission, if even for a time. The rest was especially helpful for Aerith Gainsborough, although there was still much on her mind. She found herself walking with Tifa Lockhart towards the waterside, both of them in their beachwear, feeling rather relaxed. Aerith had a sizable beachball in her arms, hoping to play a game to help pass the time when the two of them weren't tanning or swimming. Opposite of her, Tifa had brought some snacks. Aside from a few bags, she had a pair of watermelons, but another round sight of some size had caught Aerith's attention. "Boy, it sure is a scorcher out here," Tifa remarked, already developing hints of a tan. She walked, burdened by what she carried. "Yeah..." remarked Aerith, although her eyes were on Tifa's chest, each of her breasts bouncing freely, her cleavage

Princess Pan and Mr. M were excited when they both got a chance to go to the mall. The location was lively, with tons of guests and visitors around. It was a place that held a lot of excitement, especially when Princess Pan saw all the stores. "There are so many places to go..." she said in awe. "There really are," Mr. M said with a smile, adoring her look of excitement. "Thanks again for coming with me, princess." "It's no problem. I was surprised to hear you wanted to come all this way to get a doll, though," Princess Pan said. "N-not a doll, a figurine!" Mr. M said quickly. "The hobby store here has the Megumi-Chan one that's hard to get, so I wanted to stop by before too many people get there." "Oh, I see, I didn't mean to misspeak," Pan said with a slight giggle, unable to help adoring how rosy Mr. M's cheeks had gotten. "I'm more than happy to accompany you, though, maybe I could get into this figurine hobby too." "That would be nice. I can show you a few of the

The depths of Tartarus were unfathomable, a place that was overrun with Shadows that prey upon humans. Aigis, like her friends, was well versed when it came to plunging those depths. However, the android was an anti-Shadow weapon, able to face them down with little worry...but she was so much more than that too, now, thanks to the friends she made. As Aigis went on a patrol after hearing of strange activity, her mind ran with thoughts...a desire to better understand humans and how they were. Although she had improved since first being activated, she wanted to grow more. To feel things more deeply, and to that end she focused on what she did know as she walked through the halls, seeking something she did not fully understand. Among the things she did understand, at least a little, was eating. Aigis was fully capable of such, and could even taste, but she remembered the distinct joy and bliss that some humans had while eating. The ways their expressions would change, the sheer delight
