Other Plans

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the Las Pacifica harbor as nightfall descended upon the bustling city. In the clandestine confines of his home's basement, Tonrie Aklas adjusted his goggles, completing his transformation into Hydrocity.

The UI flickered to life in his field of vision as he strapped on his Hydro-disc, securing it snugly to his back. With the demeanor of a seasoned hero, Hydrocity stood poised on the sandy beach, his silhouette cutting a striking figure against the darkening sky. With a determined gaze skyward, he propelled himself into the night, ready to embark on his nocturnal patrols.

This routine had become his new normal. Each evening, as the sun surrendered to the moon, Hydrocity would take to the streets of Las Pacifica, a solitary guardian against the shadows that lurked in the city's depths.

"Anyone there?" he would query over the intercoms, seeking solace in the virtual company of his teammates.
