Dowtown Manhattten
18:00
Kat flew over the rooftops off the downtown Manhattan, she was late and needed to return home as Sandra was holding a high profile formal party at the mansion and had insisted that she would show up.
In other words she was going to be bored out off her mind.
She hated formal parties, so much that she considered watching Paint dry to be more exiting than it.
Unfortunately the party would have to wait.
"Kat, you here me." Came Marco's voice over the two way radio.
"Loud and clear, and please tell me you want to know the time."
"Huh….oh right the party." Marco said. "Unfortunately that's not the case, some punk's threatening to blow himself up if he doesn't get a million dollars."
Kat let out a sigh.
"Where is he?"
"Not far from your location, remember that Bank Robbery you busted up when you first started Super heroics?"
"Yeah, what about it."
"He's at the same bank those punks tried to rob."
"I'm on it." Kat replied with a sigh. "Mom's going to kill me."
Kat turned around and flew in the direction off the bank.

First national Bank
18:30
"Calm down young man, you'll get your money." The captain said to the young man over the loudspeaker.
"Well get it here soon or I'll detonate the bomb and take the money with it." The young man, a pale emo type with jet back hair going down to his shoulder, shouted back.
"Where's The Avengers when you need them." The police captain whispered.
"Sorry, there busy, so you've got me instead." Kat said overhearing the captain as she landed, the captain looked over his shoulder seeing the young hero.
"American Dragon, glad you're here, the negotiations' isn't going well." The captain said.
"Any idea what kind off explosive he's using?"
"No, but according to eye witnesses it looks like C4s so it should be pretty powerful."
"I'm going in." Kat told him as she took flight.

Inside
"This is your last warning." The Goth yelled from inside the bank "Give me the money or this bank goes up in flames."
"Now that's an entrance line." Kat said as she flew in, the Goth's eyes widened.
"American Dragon, just in time for the fireworks." The goth said starting the timer on the bomb strapped to his waist, when he looked up he saw Kat's first come into contact with his face knocking him out, Kat took off the bomb and flew out off the bank and high into the air.
"15 seconds left, I've got to make this count." Kat said noticing the timer, she tossed it high into the air as it reached seven seconds and waited for the fireworks.
The bomb detonated .safely causing a massive light show in the sky, Kat didn't stick around for her much deserved praise as she had a party to get to.

Shung Family Mansion
19:00
Kat landed on the balcony leading into her room and went inside, after getting changed into a black dress she walked out and went downstairs in time to see her ticked off mom.
"Kat I told you not be late for the party." Sandra said clearly angry.
"Sorry, had American Dragon business to attend to."
"Never mind, the party's about to start." Sandra said leading her in.
The party was pretty uneventful apart from a couple off drunk rich guys, however that was about to change.
"As Ms. Shung Low, what an honour to finally meet you." Came a Posh English accent, the two women turned around and saw Target's boss Julius.
"Do I know you?"
"Not personally, I am Julius Drexo, the head off Drexor Industries."
"The arms manufacture?" Kat asked recognising the name.
"The very same."
"I thought I recognised you, you're the man I'm competing with for the SHEILD contract."
"Yes, but I'm not one to let business get in the way off enjoying a high class social event, know if you excuse me I see a Buffet table with my name on it." With that Julius walked off.
"There's something strange about that man." Kat whispered to her mom.
"Agreed, I'll talk to you about him later."
----
The party was uneventful for the rest off the night, Julius left early for a business meeting and the other party goers where pretty boring, eventually the party ended and everyone who didn't live in the mansion left for there homes.
"You said you where going to talk to me about Drexo, so what's his story." Kat asked her mom folding her arms across her chest.
"Yes, I have reason to believe that he's corrupt, every other company that competed with Drexor Industries has been subject to sabotage and I believe he would do the same to my factories in a heartbeat."
"And that contract."
"SHEILD wants either me or Drexo to develop a Superhuman version off the serum that created Captain America, they have put so much pressure on me that if I lose Sung Chemical will be put out off business."
"And your telling me this, why?"
"I want you to protect my factories, as American Dragon."
"I don't know mom, I don't want people seeing me as a mercenary."
"At least do it for me, remember all I've done for you?"
Kat sighed in defeat.
"That line gets me every time."

High Raise Skycraper
20:00
The door leading to Drexo's office opened and Julius walked in, he saw his chief mercenaries Target and Wild Ryde leaning against the wall.
"How was the party." Wild asked.
"Terribly boring but it was a nesercery evil, after all the more appearances in public I make the less suspicios people become."
"And what shall we do about Shung Chemical." Target asked.
"Call The Ghost and Jetstream, they should be able to handle it."
Target nodded and got out his cellphone contacting the sabotagers.

Shung Chemical
21:00
It has been a pretty quiet night at Shung Chemial, the only problem so far was a group off hippies protesting against the company but Kat managed to get them to leave.
However that was about to change.
"We have two intruders in sector 16." A security guard yelled, Kat herd and took flight following the guard expecting some more hippies.
She was wrong.
The intruders where two Supervillains, she recognised one off them as one off Iron Man's villains known as The Ghost, the other she didn't recognise.
His costume was red with a whirlwind in the centre off his chest, mask covered everything but his light brown hair, to put it simply his costume just plain goofy,
"Ah American Dragon." Ghost said noticing her. "I am The Ghost and this is my partner Jetstream and we will be the ones to kill you."
Next time on Corporate Flame.
Kat faces off against Jetstream and Ghost in order to defend the factory, can she win?
