"Run away, if you see me.
Don't even say my name.
Don't think that you can know me.
Don't try and play that game."
Life throws curveballs from every possible direction as we go. Some of us take these chances and get as far as they can. Others miss t...
Night has fallen over Manhattan as most people were currently gathered at the park to watch some fireworks. Apparently it was a spring celebration organized by the mayor, so after he gave a speech earlier that evening, everything was set in motion. Chris didn't go though, since he had different plans to entertain himself, putting on his gadgets and vigilante outfit before turning the light off and exiting through the fire escape. He chuckled, knowing he would meet Felicia again sooner rather than later because it was actually her idea to go out for some more action before a real date.
Chris:" I gotta admit, at least she's creative. Every other lady would've just invited me to the park. I wonder, if Morgan is enjoying herself."
Smiling softly, Chris ascended the stairs and took a look around for a visual cue. Felicia promised him to let him know when she was ready, but apparently that happened in her own way as she managed to surprise Chris and wrestle him down playfully.

Chris:" That's one way to make an entrance."
Felicia:" You always need to expect the unexpected, Chrissy. Am I still on time though?"
Chris:" Right on. So what was that about the museum?"
Felicia:" I just need to pick something up and you, buddy, are my backup."
Chris:" I expect the cops to get involved. And since you don't really have weapons or super powers, I guess I'm supposed to fight them off?"
Felicia:" That's the plan. I promise I'll make this up to you somehow."
Chris:" Well, you better start thinking 'cause time is money."
And with that, the two started running across the rooftops, making sure nobody in the neighbourhood noticed them. Although Felicia was innocent in public, her nightly activities as Black Cat remained criminal. And having Chris as an accomplice would definitly make things much easier in the future. Of course there was always a risk of losing everything or the law getting involved somehow, so it never was a smooth ride. Chris wasn't so sure on why he agreed to help, although the risk of getting caught or exposed was extremely high. He just hoped to get out of this alive as they got closer to the museum. Traffic was slow at the time and only a few people were awake as Felicia used her grappling hook to swing herself across while Chris burst into a cloud of smoke, flying towards the building.
Chris:" And what are you picking up?"
Felicia:" Some paintings. I have to stay relevant and make money as well."
Chris:" But you can't do this forever."
Felicia:" As long as there's always something to get, I will try getting it. Now would you be so kind and smash this grid?"
Taking a deep breath, Chris switched with the master thief and focussed. Usually as a vigilante, he stopped people from doing this stuff. This was a complete 180 and before he could say anything else, his fist collided with the metal, breaking it enough so Felicia can fit through.
