What's next?

Chasing another lead

Kitty, Selina, and Felicia made their way to the apartment building Barbara had directed them to. Located in a part of Gotham that went largely ignored by the local government, the building had long been abandoned -- often, these buildings were havens for homeless squatters the city had overlooked, but the three women noticed that there were no signs of life in this one.

"Ugh... this place gives me really bad vibes," Selina noted.

"Really? Babs tells me you're usually right at home in places like these," Kitty mentioned.

Selina shook her head. "Usually, I am... but that's because I know the people in these places. Usually, I'm here to help these people -- something this city's elite refuses to do -- but this place is dead."

"So you're doing the whole Robin Hood thing, huh? How noble," Kitty teased.

"Gotham's upper crust don't do anything for these people. Someone out there has to," Selina explained. "Besides, it's not without its benefits. The information network I've built has been quite profitable."

"Everybody wins, huh?" Kitty remarked.

Selina smirked and nodded. "Pretty much. Well, except for Gotham's corrupt aristocracy. But people like Cobblepot and the Falcone family can afford the losses."

"Also, it's much more fun to steal from people who deserve it," Felicia added. "You sure you don't want to try it at least once?"

Kitty chuckled and shook her head. "Nahh, I'm good for now."

"That's actually fine with me," Felicia said playfully. "I kinda have a thing for good girls, and I think you and your girlfriend are *adorable*."

Kitty blushed, Selina let out a quite laugh and Felicia smiled mischievously. "Uh, thanks... I think," Kitty stammered before changing the subject -- they did have a job to do, after all. "We should check the basement."

The group descended the stairs leading down to the apartment building's basement and, after some searching, found what they were looking for; an **** woman, dressed in a vigilante costume not unlike their own. From her wounds, it looked liked she'd recently been in a serious fight, as if she'd escaped her attackers and found a hiding spot before collapsing.

"Damn. Whoever was after her wasn't messing around," Felicia observed.

"If this is who I think it is, neither was she," Selina told Felicia. "Kitty, you might want to message Barbara about this..."

"What's going on? Who's she?" Kitty inquired.

"I think this is a close friend of hers... another Batgirl. How much has Babs told you about Cassandra Cain?"
