Lightning Lass

Throughout the criminal underworld one name brings fear to the soul of even the most hardened criminals. Lightning Lass! With her mighty electric powers, she protects her city from crime!

However, when she's not defending the city, she's hiding among the citizens as the local librarian Susan Grinzel.

On this day in particular she's performing a routine check on any overdue books. There are a few people around, patrons either reading or looking through the sizable collection of novels. From the looks of things, today was bound to be a normal boring and drab day, until…

"EVERYBODY GET ON THE GROUND AND PUT YOUR HANDS UP!!!"

Three ski-masked figures toting guns kicked in the front door and began causing a fuss. Nearly everyone did as they were told, submitting to the dangerous criminals. That is, everyone except Susan, who stepped out from behind her desk and confronted the gunmen.

"What is it that you think you're doing?!" she demanded, sternly.

"We're robbing this library of everything it's got!" one of them exclaimed, pointing their gun in her direction, "Now, get on the ground before things get messy!"

Book bandits, there were few worse criminals than those willing to steal knowledge. This looked like a job for a certain superhero…

A confident smile grew across Susan's face as she placed her hands on her hips, "You boys picked the wrong library to rob," and with a breath, she said the magic words to transform herself into her superpowered alter-ego, "Lightning Strike!"

A bolt of lightning shot down from the heavens and passed through the roof of the library to make contact with Susan. For a moment, she was enveloped in a bright light, before it dissipated. This was usually when she made her grand entrance as Lightning Lass, but something felt off…

Normally, when she said the magic words it would feel as if a great power had begun coursing through her veins. Her body would feel and look stronger, as a yellow and blue bodysuit appeared in the place of her clothes. However, she didn't feel any stronger. Though, she did feel a good deal chillier.

Still, Susan pushed aside her concerns and took on a triumphant stance.

"Do you guys still think it was a good idea to come here?" she smirked.

The criminals looked her over in confusion before looking between one another.

"Well… I'd say so, yeah," one of them replied.

"Same here," Another nodded, "I don't know what that lightning was, but I'm more than happy with the result.~"

"Yup, in fact, I'm feeling like this is the best library I've ever been to."

Susan narrowed her eyebrows, "Don't you know who I am? You should be pissing yourself in fear!"

"I don't think I've heard about any scary nudists running around the city recently… " one of the criminals chuckled

"I'm not a nudist!" 'Susan rolled her eyes, " What are you even talking abou-"

Susan's words halted in her mouth as she took a moment to look down at herself. To her bewilderment, there was not a stitch of clothing on her entire body.

"AAAAAHHH!!!" She squealed quickly covering her breasts and crotch, "Where's my super suit?!"

She continued to search her body for even the smallest sign of her costume but to no avail. The only thing she had on was a titanium necklace she had bought for herself yesterday. Suddenly it dawned on her, titanium wasn't conductive and perhaps it had somehow affected her transformation!

"Look lady, it doesn't matter who you are, we're not letting you get in the way of our scheme!"

Two of the criminals began to quickly descend on Susan.
