Gotham (open)
Huntress opened the throttle on her bike and sped up. The car in front of her was carrying the leader of a drug ring that operated near one of Gotham's elementary schools. There was no way these guys were getting away. Huntress was bringing them down tonight.

The car made a hard left and the tires squealed.

Huntress but the bike into a hard turn to follow.

	"I'll take the one in the car," she said. "This one is all yours." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're too kind," Cat said. She used the body of the car to fling herself at the guy, fist first. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Once Cat had him out of the way, Maria dove into the car for the guy still inside. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cat followed up with a couple more punches, taking the guy down easily. She dusted off her hands. "Didn't even break a nail." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The guy in the car had a gun in his hand, but it took Maria all of two seconds to disarm him. Two punches and he was unconscious. There was a nice bottle of champagne on ice in a bucket. These guys weren't going to be drinking it so Maria helped herself to the bottle. She climbed out of the car. "Look what I found," she said and held up the bottle. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That got a grin. "I'd call that spoils of war." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Totally," Maria said as she popped the cork. She took a long pull and offered the bottle to Cat. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cat took a swig, then wiped her mouth with the back of her glove. "Good stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"They usually have the best," Maria said as she grabbed the bottle from Cat. She took a long drink. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Now, just have to hope these guys fancy lawyers ain't gonna get 'em off," Cat said. "Too much of their crap's been makin' its way North." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-09-29 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	"I hear ya," she said and handed the bottle back to Cat. The sound of sirens could be heard in the distance. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-09-29 11:18 pm UTC (link)
	Cat took another drink, handing the bottle back to Maria. "One of us should probably stay for the hand-off. And I'm guessing I've got more cred than you, Ms. Gotham vigilante." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-09-29 11:20 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, yeah. I'm keeping the bottle though." Maria grinned and headed for the bike. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-09-29 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Drinks later?" Cat asked. "Usual place?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-09-29 11:32 pm UTC (link)
	"You bet!" Maria said as she climbed on her bike. She took another long drink and then took off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-09-29 11:45 pm UTC (link)
	Cat just laughed as she fished out her JSA ID card from her belt. Sometimes, being the person of record sucked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria, sans costume, was perched on a bar stool and already working on her second drink by the time Cat arrived. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-10-01 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	Cat plopped herself down on the stool next to Maria. There'd been way too much jawing with the police to do, plus she's had to change. "Hope you ain't started too much of a party without me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-10-01 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm only on number two," Maria said. "Barkeep, get my friend here a drink and put it on my tab." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-10-01 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	Cat went with a domestic draft beer. Not of that squirrely foreign stuff for this girl. "Guess I'll just have to work extra hard to catch up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-10-01 09:58 pm UTC (link)
	Maria grinned. "Something like that." She held her glass of beer up in a toast. "Here's to kicking bad guy butt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-10-01 10:09 pm UTC (link)
	Cat grinned and clinked glasses with Maria. "To kickin' keister!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-10-01 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	Maria tapped her glass to Cat's and took a long drink. The beer was cold and not bad. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cat_fancy 2012-10-01 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	Cat took a long drink, not needing to come up for air for enough time that it probably attracted some stares. She'd had better. But what did you expect from Gotham City? "How's your mama, by the way?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-10-01 11:12 pm UTC (link)
	"She's good. Still doing the teaching thing and loving it. How's Aunt Zinda doing?" Maria had very fond memories of visiting Aunt Zinda's. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
