[Sometime during Faye's fly about, this awesome ship pulls up next to the Redtail. It's not doing anything. Just... Following. Sup? ]

((Hope this is all right fffff. Smack me if it's not]

[luckyvalentine]

((whoo! I'll say this is later in the day, after she fails to go straight up and break through the 'ceiling', and is out trying a different direction))

[wtf...tries hailing him. Maybe their com systems are similar enough to work between ships?]

[thenewbat]

((Works for me \o/))

[Did it work? Who knows. There's total silence from Batman's end for now]

[luckyvalentine]

[...hmm. Faye hits the brakes abruptly and rotates up and around, so she can hopefully get a good look at it as it passes, and maybe drop back down to follow it instead]

[thenewbat]

[He does go past her but turns right around then just stops and hovers.]

[luckyvalentine]

[also stops nearby, hovering back and slightly above the other ship. Leaning forward, she peers down through the bubble of her ships window at him]

[thenewbat]

[Sorry Faye, you're not going to be able to see through his window, but he's going to try and hail her back now. He'll let her start talking first, but at least he's trying to open comm lines]

[luckyvalentine]

[props her chin in her hand and leans her elbow on the window next to her]

[coy voice crackles over the comm system] ...Nice day for a flight.

[thenewbat]

[The dry, near monotone Batman voice answers her back] As long as it's only a flight.

[luckyvalentine]

[oh. Heh. She chuckles at that.]

...You're not going to tell me that you're the police, are you?

[thenewbat]

Sort of.

So just a flight then?

[luckyvalentine]

[...sorry, boy. No answer. She just abruptly gears up and blasts past you. This...was the wrong day for this.]

[thenewbat]

[GREAT well at least he has a badass Batmobile that goes up to Mach 3 to give chase in. Which is what he does.]

[luckyvalentine]

[just fantastic. Faye cranks the engine and rockets off...this was going to be an interesting ride. Taking off away from the Castle, she steadily climbs in altitude. She'd dive up through the atmosphere and hit the stars if she could...but running along the invisible 'ceiling' was gonna have to do for now.]

[thenewbat]

[Terry's glad he found out about the invisible ceiling before this. He makes sure to fly below it and shoots a grapple out of the front of the Batmobile, hopefully hooking it to the back of the Redtail]

Hey! Stop the ship or I'll stop it for you.

[luckyvalentine]

I don't think so, pal!

[she hears the metallic noise of the grappling hook and glares. For once, she wished the Redtail had a grappling arm. So, instead she slams on the brakes and corkscrews downward, letting loose a volley of machine gun fire at the line of the grappling hook and the ship its attached to]
