Sometimes, you just had to go into business for yourself. )
Just when she was going to phase in after her, this mystery person smashed through the roof. Okay-- a villain with phasing abilities AND super strength? What the heck was going on here?
"HEY, THIEF," Kitty called, walking up towards the top of the building on what looked like invisible stairs. She had put her bag down on the street first (and her new laptop, of course, because if that got broken HEADS WOULD ROLL) before moving again. "Yeah, that's right-- I saw that. Not a very slick exit, though. I give it a 6.5 out of 10!"
God. Didn't crime EVER sleep?

"Go save a kid with gills and mind your own business," Karla said, raising her hand and firing one of her gravity blasts at the girl.

"Catwoman is going to be SUPER pissed when she finds out you're stealing her schtick," Kitty launched herself at Mystery Thief, aiming to punch her right in the face, "and TERRIBLY, I might add!"

"If I don't care about what the law says, why should I care about how that bitch feels?"
Reply
"If you don't care about what the law says, then what's with the mask?"
She needed a plan. If she knew more about who she was fighting, maybe...

"You know what? Let's expedite this so that we're not both just swinging at nothing..."
Flying over to a rooftop she grabbed an air conditioning unit off the roof and threw it at a couple waiting to cross at a light.
Reply
"Unlike YOUR knockoff powers, I can make people intangible by touching them-- sorry about that folks," Kitty apologize to the couple who looked white with fear, "-- it looks like you can't even imitate powers right."
There was a silent bitch tacked onto the end of that, that went unspoken.
"I'm going to find out who you are, anyway. How many people know how to phase? Not that many. Give it up."

Laughing, Karla smashed in the side of a building and grabbed the two people inside that were sitting in on the couch, one in each hand.
"I bet you're a one trick pony. Phasing and that's it. Now, let's say I throw both of these people as hard as I can in opposite directions... do you have any flight or super speed abilities that you could catch them both?"
Reply
Or... unlucky.
"Apparently you're only good at throwing things at people so, pot meet kettle. Now that we've both acknowledged each other's powers, why don't you just put those nice people down and face me?"
One eye was kept on the people in the building. Shit. This was not good. She was going to have to get in there to make sure everyone got out okay. What ever happened to the days of regular people committing crimes?
Reply
"And, sure, I'll put them down," she said, smirking under her mask. She had really missed not being the one to save people.
"Him," she said, holding up the guy before flinging him high into the air and as far to her right as she could.
"Will go down there and she?" holding up the girl Karla gave her the same treatment, only tossing her the opposite direction. "Can go there. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take off now."

Kitty was on top of the building again at speed that had to be pure adrenaline, watching as the woman threw the girl to God knows where. Kitty would pray for them, she really would. Go to synagogue for the next three Saturdays and really pray. She launched herself at the thief again, this time with her whole body weight. It looked like she was going to punch her but instead, Kitty reached up for the thief's mask, hoping to phase it with her. Kitty just wanted to know the face of the woman she was going to beat the crap out of at a later date.

"Nice try," she mocked, shouting to the girl as she flew higher. "But I think you need to go be a hero now. You can't catch me anyways."
Reply
Sometimes, she thought painfully, being a hero kind of sucked.
But she would find out who this woman was, through any means possible. And then she was going down.
