[ He gets the three on the roof - a young couple and their daughter - in one shot. It takes almost too long, they don't believe that all they have to do is touch him. He can here the roof starting to splinter below them when he finally takes off. He's not sure how much it will hold.

Dropping them off a block away, Kon hovers over the nearby. Listens hard. Feels at the bandages under his shirt. Catches his breath without panting. Holding the building up took a lot out of him. He needs to find Miss Martian.

He sees her. Rather, her uniform. His first thought is that she's burned, that this is what happens when Martians burn. ]

Oh god, are you okay? Did you get everyone out?

[Megan slumps against the side of the building, gasping hard as she inches further away from the fire, holding herself up against the bricks. She manages to shapeshift and put her human-looking face back together - she really really doesn't want to scare Conner or the civilians - but the radiant heat is just too much for her to do anything more at that moment.

She slumps to her knees when she reaches the sidewalk, trying not to look at everything that's still burning.]

T-two more, third floor, near the back of the building. I'm s-s-sorry. I can't go back in. I have to get away from it for a minute...

[ He's worried, but goes. What else can he do? She's upset, but alive, and if he keeps asking what's wrong, they won't be. He flies off, collecting citizens and depositing them clear of the fires. When he's sure he's got everyone, he goes back for Megan. He's visibly worried. There's a fire, yes, but to him it's just a fire. Things are always burning. It's scary, but in an exhilarating sort of way with your base instinct telling you to get out and stay out. He assumes that she's been hurt. It doesn't cross his mind that she flinched. ]

Can you get back to the tower under your own steam?

[Megan shakes her head pulling herself back together bit by bit and staggering up to her feet. She can breathe better now, her head isn't ringing to badly]

No it's o-okay. I'm okay, I can stay. I just needed a minute. Let's go. There are people up the block still I think.

[It's just a fire. It won't even burn her that much... will it?

She looks down at her arm and recoils, horrified to see that her skin isn't knitting back together as it should. She's physically BURNED, skin bubbling and peeling apart like thin paper caught aflame. She can't feel it hurting but then again her nerves there are probably shot...

She's not invulnerable here?! DAMN! She'll have to be more careful.

She shapeshifts a fresh layer of skin over the wound and lifts her chin to Conner, determined.]

You're not hurt are you? Are you okay to lead this time?

[ He shakes his head slowly. His stomach is a little twisted from watching her heal herself. He didn't know that she could do that. Kon decides he'll memorize his new teammates powers. Later. ]

Not anymore than I was when we started.

[ Which may or may not be true. There's what feels like sunburn on his bare forearms, not that he knows what sunburn feels like. His TTK has never been great with fire and the like. He'll have to be more careful. So will she. But she's right, he's taking the lead now. ]

I'll get them out of the building, and you work on finding a way to put some of these fires out?

[ Kon focuses on what he can hear. There's so much to filter out. Their heart beats. Breathing. The roar of the flames. Things crumbling and alarms going off. He thinks - yeah, he hears them. He knows which way they are, if not exactly where. He can find them. ]

Got them. Come on, or go home. You can't stay here though.

[ He doesn't wait to see if she's following, just takes off and into another building. It takes a bit longer to find the people trapped inside. 'Over there' is fine out in the open, less fine in a building. Nearly disasterous, in fact, but he manages to avoid direct contact with the fire, even though it feels like being inside an oven. This time, he doesn't slow down or even explain himself, just grabs them mid-flight and hangs on, keeps going, gets out.

Kon returns to Megan, hovering next to her while he scans, coughing a little from the smoke. ]

If I have to go in again, remind me to make an air bubble or something.

[Megan follows as much as she can, slower but still only a few steps behind. She looks around for whatever she can find to try to put out the fires and hits upon an untapped fire hydrant just as Kon returns to her]

I think I can work with this...

[She gives Kon a concerned look, as she wrestles the cap off the side of the hydrant, slamming a strong shapeshifted hand over it and carefully sectioning off her body for a moment before letting loose - water pumping in one arm and out the other and she takes her time moving around the street, stretching out to feed off the hydrant and douse all the flames she can manage]

There, that should make it easier, but air bubble this time Kon, watch out for the steam.

[the water has helped her feel better too - though she's still pale she's much better now]
