Summary: Kara and Steph do a little sparring.
"Ready, K?"
Kara nodded and fingered the red-sun generator on her wrist. "I still don't see why Oracle wants me to do this, though."
"Got to keep your combat skills sharp." Steph said. "She says there's, and I quote 'a metric ton of Kryptonite around these days'. I figured we'd just do a little light sparring, followed by some wrestling where I find out exactly how ticklish you are."
"Hee. Sounds like a plan." Kara grinned as she turned the red-sun generator to on and felt her powers quickly leave her. "So, how exactly do we - "
Kara was caught off-guard as Steph quickly swept her legs out from under her.
"Hey!"
"No time for etiquette in sparring, S-girl!" Steph laughed as she flipped backwards out of Kara's reach. "Get me back!"
Kara grumbled as she threw a punch, which Steph easily dodged. She was used to being the powerful one in their relationship, rescuing Steph out of tight spots. But without her powers, Steph was much better than her. The few weeks of training she'd had with Batman didn't amount to much when you were up against one of the Bat-family proteges.
Steph landed a few quick punches to Kara's midsection, clearly pulling her punches but strong enough to slightly knock the wind out of her. Kara hang back, watching Steph move, until she saw an opportunity. Before Steph could react, Kara grabbed her by her cape and pulled her into a hold.
"Gotcha!"
Before Kara knew what was happening, Steph had managed to break her hold and throw her over her head. Steph was surprisingly strong for a girl of her size, Kara thought right before she crashed into the mat.
"Ow!"
Steph dropped her fighting stance as she heard her girlfriend cry out. "K? If you're playing possum...well, that would actually be kind of awesome."
"No." Kara said through gritted teeth. "It's my foot. I landed on it wrong when you tossed me."
"Let me take a look." Steph sat down next to Kara and gently eased the injured limb out from under her. Removing the boot, she could see some mild swelling and bruising, but nothing too serious.
Steph reached out and stroked Kara's cheek. "Well, you're definitely done sparring for the day. It's probably a mild sprain. Nothing that shouldn't heal quickly once your powers come back. But until then...I think I know what'll help."
A few minutes later, Kara was lying on the couch with her foot in Steph's lap, an ice pack on it.
"Dating Robin for a few years, you learn a lot about soothing sore muscles." Steph said as she gently kneaded the sole of Kara's foot. "Does that feel good? I'm not hurting you, right?"
"Oh, no. Definitely not hurting me." Kara grinned. "That feels really good."
"I'm used to dealing with these annoying little aches and pains, but I figure this has got to be pretty new for you." Steph rubbed a sensitive spot near the Kara's ankle, eliciting a moan of relief from the Kryptonian girl. "Anything I can do to make it a little easier."
"Thanks." Kara sighed. "I'm totally kicking your butt the next time we get into the ring, though."
"You'll get there." Steph smiled as she leaned in to give Kara a kiss. "Trust me, I know being vulnerable comes with a lot of pains, but it has its pleasures too. And since you're got an hour or so before your powers come back...I figured I'd show you a few."
