[Home, in the light of day, is less terrifying. They left and hid for a while. Whatever was after them might have tried to find them. There's a chance it might not be there anymore.]

[It's when they reach the parking lot that something unusual happens. A young women in a superhero costume appears, in a ring of life. She seems to be looking for something. When she sees them, she stops.]
["Oh, finally. I've been looking for you."]
[Specifically them. It's not like the Alliance has no records of them. They briefly stayed at the hotel, used the credit cards. The people searching for Starfallen have been split into search areas. They've been given pictures of people to memorize.]

[Hunter hovers behind his aunt, peeking around her.]
["My hero name is Penumbra." Hunter vaguely recognizes her.]
[He tugs on his aunt's sleeve.]
I think she's Alliance. I've seen her on TV.
["I am. I know this is...going to sound a little crazy. But have you had strange flashbacks, recently? Or powers you didn't have before? Or had a feeling that things just...aren't right?"]
