En Route to a show down
The actors for tonight's play were gathering.

Oh they weren't quite into position just yet. New actors had to be auditioned for new parts. It would remain to be seen if one of them would take on the mask of a hero or a villain while the stage lights up in the dark painting itself with vivid violent colors. Is the city freeing itself or is it falling into a trap?

Questions will be answered soon.

But for now a car speeds through the dark. The driver is on their way. One of the heroes, shining bright enough for some of the more dangerous element to find. The stage is set for this act.

The sky opens up and it begins to rain. The street lights flicker as the car continues weaving in and out of traffic. The driver is hurrying for a very important reason.

As long as there's something to chase, Woof keeps up hot pursuit. He bounds from car to car, even with them in motion, leaving claw gaps through the metal as he gives chase. A couple times he comes close - they're faster when they have open road, he corners better.
At one point he's close enough to take a good swipe, and with it, Jane is left with four long, deep clawmarks along the back of her car, and Woof, in turn, is left holding onto her rear bumper.

That's as close as he comes though, and as they near Arkham, with a different sort of conflict visible in the distance, he loses track of them around a series of corners.

Chase instinct dying down, he cackles, and heads back to the Jokerz with the bumper over one shoulder to show Ghoul and the Didis his new souveneir of chasing cars.

	Valmont, decidedly not pleased with heading toward the loony bin, can only hold on and be thankful that last swipe of claws did not, in fact, graze his legs. After the mutt stops giving chase and it's clear that it has done so, he calls down, "Any time ladies. My stamina may be legendary, but even I have limits." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jane pulls over and gets out after putting her car into park. She stares at the damage her car took then sighs. It could be much worse. "Thanks for helping us. But we need to part ways. Don't think I can convince you to go where we're heading." She still offers him a smile and holds out her hand to offer him a friendly handshake. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mia nodded, adjusting her mask. No slipping. Not here, certainly. "It's much appreciated," she said, her tone cool. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

After slipping off the roof of the car, Valmont nods along to Jane's words, ignoring them mostly and pulling down his mouth covering to breath a bit better. And when she offers her hand, he takes it but draws it to him, flipping it elegantly so he can kiss her knuckles.

"It was an absolute pleasure to be able to aid you, madam," Valmont murmured once his mask was back in place and his voice sufficiently muffled. His fingers released hers reluctantly and he turned to give a polite half bow to Mia, "I am Valmont, might I have the honor of knowing your names?"

Both eye brows go up and she blinks like a very startled deer. She doesn't quite blush but he has her flustered none the less. She won't dwell on it because she has him pegged as a grifter in her mind from the get go. Something about the way he presents himself just has her feel that way.

She flexes her hand once it's free.

"You can call me Jane." The look she sends to Mia says they need to close this up fast.
