Luck, good luck for you, bad luck for them.

It isn't long before the two robbers are done, that warning shot you heard seems to have really done the trick. You were asking yourself how they would get away, there's no car waiting up front. Well, apparently their plan is to go out the backdoor and into a dark alley, which suddenly lights up when the car that stood there turns on it's lights. The two men get in the car and the driver who evidently waited inside immediately starts driving, they must have hotwired the car engines audio system to not make a sound, otherwise you would have at least heard it. This is the chance you have waited for, at least somewhat so, you'll follow that car as well as you can. You believe they will want leave the city as quickly as possible, get away from all the police and superhero presence, the best way for them to do that is to take a left after the next block and then again after two more, essentially driving in a half circle. By running across the roofs you can move in a straight line and manage to get ahead of them, readying yourself to take a picture of the cars front for searching purposes and then, if it seems well possible, jumping on their roof, you don't weight that much so you might manage to do it without alerting them. You wait, and wait, and wait, growing nervous that you might have miscalculated and they're not actually taking this route. Eventually however, a car shows up, it looks exactly like the one that drove away from the bank, from your vantage point on a roof right next to the street you can see the people inside through the wind shield, two people in front, one in the back on the co-drivers side, just like the two robbers entered their car. What throws you off however, is the way they're driving, no speeding, no sudden and unannounced turns, no nothing. It takes you a few moments, which they spend waiting for a red light, to understand what's going on, they believe no one followed them or knows what car they drive, after speeding of to get a bit of distance to the scene of the crime they started driving like perfectly innocent people, as to not give a reason to suspect anything. With that finally realized you take the photo for record keeping, which even shows you a gym bag like the one that was used to carry the money on the seats in the back, now you're sure it's the right car. The traffic light turns green and they start driving like law-abiding citizens who have nothing to fear again, granting you a much better opportunity than you thought to jump on top of them.

You soar through the air, hoping your aim was true and you end on the car, not the street. With barely a sound you land on the roofs back end, immediately putting your feet against a small spoiler to secure yourself. It happens just in time, just. in. time. do you look to the front again to see a rooftop window opening and a man looking out of it, directly at you. "Accident sensors bitch!" he says, pulls up the shotgun and fires...Your reflexes are immense, under the right circumstances and with a bit of luck you can even evade a single bullet, but on a car (that's speeding up again), with a shotgun at a distance of less than a meter, no chance. As soon as you saw that shotgun you jumped, the shot only killed thin air. You hit the ground at the same time he shoots where you just were, ignoring the pain you immediately begin to move sideways, gaining cover.

SCREEEEECH! A very abrupt braking. It surprises not only you but also the shooter, as evidenced by him shouting, "WTF man, you crazy, why you stoping?". "Just...", the drivers voice answers, angrily at first but then almost immediately turning to resignated calmness, "just look fucking ahead.". The shooter turns with an exasperated sigh, which he cuts short when he apparently sees what's in front of them. You get out from behind the corner you used as cover to see what's going on.There stands a man before the car. He is mostly pretty normal, pants, a t-shirt, a hoodie, just normal. Only two things about him are out of the ordinary, his face, while being just a human face, is known all over the world, it's the face of one of humankinds greatest heroes, the other thing is his hoodie, it looks very comfortable, but it isn't made from some kind of textiles, it's made from perfectly crystal-clear and never melting ice.

This was not expected, not at all, but it still happened, of all the people the robbers could have come across, they came across him. "Are you okay?" he asks as he points at you, his voice friendly and open, although mixed with concern right now. "I'm, I'm fine, thanks.", your answer prompts him to turn to the robber still sticking out of the window, "what about you? Are you okay?". "Uh, uh, uh y- yeah, I'm okay, yeah." the robber is a bit aghast at the genuine concern he's met with, although basically anyone knows that is what he does. "Ok, then, I have to ask you to get out of the car now, come on guys." when he sees that they start leaving the vehicle he comes walking towards you, "Hi, what were you following them for?", "Bank robbery" that's all you manage to say. "Okayyy, what's your name by the way?", you grin a bit embarassed as you say, "to be honest I don't have one yet.". "Ahh, you're still new then", he bows closer to you and speaks much more silent, making sure only you hear him, "listen, I don't wanna be an ass but you really need to find a name, those assholes at SP will only help you when they can make profit from that, but that means that you have to be known. So, get yourself a name and start self-promoting, you have to get a following, otherwise you won't make it, believe me.". "I believe you, I really do, I just couldn't find a name yet.", you answer, "Ok then, I'm not really an expert for that, but try to orient yourself on your powers, tactics and character, that often ends up working. Also if you allow me to say that, no offense meant, it seems like those bank robbers would have been a bit more than you can chew, please be careful ok?", which puts the ball to answer back on your turf, "I'll try to keep your tips in mind, and you're right with your concern, they would have been too much, I didn't want to fight them, I was gonna follow them to their hideout and then call for backup or go sneaky, just didn't thought the car would have sensors on the roof, no offense taken by the way.". After the whispered discussion is over the superhero reverts back to his normal stature and voice, turning to the car where the robbers have lined up he says, "ok guys, a little question, where's the money?", one of the robbers hands him the bag, "it's in here". "Ok,", he says, then turns to you again, "you wanna report them, or do you want me to do it?", "I'll do it, thanks.". "Okay, while we wait, allow me to tell you one of the greatest secrets of the superhero business: it is not a secret tactic to defeat even the most powerful foes, it is not the knowledge how to create ice-cream out of thin air, ice-cream anyone?", as everyone raises their hand it's also everyone who gets a succulent ice-cream, free of charge and with good wishes from one of earths greatest heroes, "no, no, no, the secret I'm about to tell you is when not to and when to make social media posts. Small stuff doesn't really need one, like when you help someone do their dishes cause their dishwasher broke, but take something like, a bank robbery for example, it's completely fine if you post about that. And now for something completely different: I wanna make an instagram post about this, you want in on the photo?".You are really getting the whole program here, he helps you stop them, let's you make the call with SP, gives everyone ice-cream and now even makes a post with you, helping with that reputation-building he talked about. "A photo with you and ice-cream? Absolutely!", you answer, the two of you pose and smile as he makes the photo and uploads it, "oh, and, if you find a name, let me know and I'll tag you, okay?". You give him a thumbs up, that's absolutely like him, he doesn't just tell the newbie how important reputation is, but also helps with getting some, almost half the world follows him, being tagged by him will give you a boost, definitely. The remainig time till the police notified by SP arrives is mostly spent in silence as everyone just enjoys their ice-cream, understandably, it's delicious and he somehow even manages to make it actually healthy. When the police does arrive they take the robbers in custody, profusely thank the big guy and quickly shake your hand too. Once everyone is gone he speaks to you one more time, "Well, that's that, have a good night", he jumps into the air and is gone, his ice and cold powers are so immense that they practically break their own limitations, allowing him to somehow use them to fly at high speeds.

You finish you ice-cream on the way home. It's almost four o'clock when you finally get to lie down in your bed, having finished your first night as a superheroine.
