The Man without Fear learns what fear is: OTA Arrival

[blind_devil]

Matt stood at Ben Urich's grave trying to feel anything, but rage. First Elena and now Ben had gotten caught in the web of Wilson Fisk and suffered for it.  He wanted to go after Fisk right at this moment and rip the man apart for everything he'd done, but that had gone so well the last time that Matt was still healing from the wounds he'd gotten from that clash. It didn't stop Matt from wanting to kill in the name of those he lost and his fists clench inside his gloves even as Karen walks up to comfort him. He doesn't feel her gentle hand on his arm and doesn't react when she steps close.

He doesn't want comfort right now, he wants justice. Comfort feels like nothing, but empty words and empty gestures. Justice though is hot and fast and would settle his mind and save his city. He's ready to go and burn down everything Fisk has ever made before Fisk can get his fingers in more of Hell's Kitchen's pies. He turns to head back to the office and that's when everything changes. 

Suddenly Matt is surrounded by heartbeats too strange to be real. Some have double the sound and others skip and still others have a deepness that cannot be human. He takes a step forward and is now overwhelmed with voices and smells he's never encountered before. His normal steady gait falters and he falls to the ground with a soft grunt. Where there had been firm ground there was now carpet. What the hell had just happened to him? 

He tries to push himself up, but the noise and smell continue to over whelm him and he can't figure out how to center himself. Never one to ask for help if he doesn't need it, Matt calls out into the noise. "Please someone help me? Where am I?"

The sound pulled Thea Queen out of another unplanned nap (thanks to dozing off the second she sat down once again) but the words made her heart take over. When she saw the person making the call she knew the feeling all too well: the not knowing much of anything going on (abet her version included passing out and having her panic moment later on).

She spoke softly but making sure her voice floated towards the stranger,"Follow the cherry blossom perfume, I'm hidden in a booth in the back. I'm also not going to harm you." She was also thankful she had humored herself that one time to replicate a bottle of her favorite perfume.

[ Paige hears the call, and if on instinct, orbs to where the sound is coming from. She stares down at the man.]

Hey, you're okay.....right? I mean you look okay. [She paused stooping down in front of him. She smells like the strawberry shampoo she used that morning, and a trace of lily.... her favorite flower. ]

I'm Paige and I can help you. What do you need?

"You are on a starship," called out a voice, who'd evidently decided he wasn't going to get up to pick him up. "Brought here by an entity known as Q." The source of the voice was male with an exotic musk, mixed with furs, leather and metal. His heart had a deeper timbre than a humans.

"You're on a spaceship," comes the answer from a totally normal source; Sinthia's heartbeat is slow, steady, and human. Admittedly small, yes, because she's only an eight-year-old child, but still. Reassurance can come in small packages, she hopes.

"The USS Enterprise, specifically. It's safe if you were worried about that."
