There is a New Villainess in Town

Chapter Twenty-Nine

It turned out they discovered that entry between the two buildings sub-basements was a lost cause, every access had been bricked up or welded shut making access to the other side without alerting anyone near impossible. It was in the main basement that they had finally found their access, a heavy steel rolling door that at first looked bolted shut thus immovable, until Night leaned against it in frustration. Not only did it move but silently. “Escape door” the flying hero decided, pushing the door open slowly to make as little noise as they could. When it was open just enough for the two to squeeze through they did so, then Night closed the door while Fluffball dropping one of her capture bombs next to it.

“They won’t be getting that open for a while” the feline explained as the two watched a mass of purple-black material expand.

“I never realized” Night commented. “It doesn’t make enough noise as it expands to be noticeable and what noise it does make sounds like little needles of glass breaking.” They were talking in as low a voice as they could as there were probably noise sensors at least.

“I have to be quiet to survive” Fluffball explained. “For example, your too good to be defeated face to face, I have to trick you. Now lets get those children.”

They walked into the darkness and Night carefully noticed that like herself the alien feline could apparently see in the dark. ‘No wonder she beat me’ the human thought when Fluffball deftly dodged a carefully stacked pile of small cans. ‘She has the same advantages I do, but she’s a lot more dexterous.’

She too dodged the stacked cans, more than likely set up as a very low tech but effective early warning device. ‘It will be hard to kill her after this’ the superhero decided. ‘Not impossible but very hard, I think I’m beginning to respect her and that is dangerous.’

It was a maze of carefully stacked boxes that they had to navigate, each stack barely stable with either empty cans or glass bottles stacked atop them. These people were not only smart, they were a lot more careful than the average criminal.
