DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the characters or places from the WB's show and comic. References to Spider-Man and Batman don't belong to me either.

Birds Of Prey
LADY SCARLET
Chapter VIII: The Long Haul
Buildings passing by in flashes of colors as the Huntress hurtles from rooftop to rooftop. "Hang in there Dinah," she muttered. Then, leaping off the edge towards the street, Helena slams her feet first onto the roof of the fast moving truck. Another * slam *, signified that Josilyn had just arrived by her side. Aiming her wrists downwards, followed by two loud * Thwips*, Scarlet held two strands of webbing in her hand.
"We're in for a long haul, so grab hold," she ordered in a calm, conversational way, holding out the other chord for Huntress. Helena grabbed on for dear life as the truck tried to buck off it's unwanted passengers. The two of them were sent flying in the air. For a few seconds, they looked like human kites! But, luckily, the sirens had ropes of webbing as strong as steel to help pull them back down.
Suddenly, the back doors of the truck slammed open. Live Wire and Devil's Snare came jetting out like a bat out of hell. They surf across the ground with ease with the help of their hovering surfboards. (A/N: Think "Back To The Future") The evil twosome goes racing down the street. Then, making a youy, to hover at each side of the car with the heroines.
"Hell-O ladies!" taunted the eager read head with an evil grin. He made a stop near the side with Helena.
Lady Scarlet and Huntress stood back to back, trying to think of what to do. Scarlet, upon noticing that Huntress was wearing gloves, whispered, "Are those gloves rubber?"
"Yes" came the reply from behind. "Why?"
"Rubber doesn't conduct electricity, it absorbs it."
"Okay. So, I get blue and you get red?"
"By, George! I think she's got it!"
"Ready?"
"Yes. When I say 'go', you leap over me," ordered Scarlet. Few seconds pause, not giving Huntress time to confirm the order, "Go!" Huntress made a back flip over her head as she sprang towards Devil's Snare. "Don't forget about the water!" Scarlet yelled over her shoulder. Soon, she leapt off the edge to slam her knee and fist into the red head's body.
Still holding onto the chord of webbing, Helena leaps into the air, away from Live Wire. She kicks off from a low hanging lamppost to help her turn around. Making a quick extension of both legs, makes contact with the villianesse's chest.
Live Wire is sent propelling backwards, towards the wall of a nearby building. She manages to veer around to face the wall, her skateboard shatters on impact. Her side meets the ground.
"That's what you get when you don't practice," came the approaching voice of Huntress. 'She can't get up.' she notes. Helena shoves Live Wire onto her back with her foot. The girl moans in pain. 'Must've broken a rib or two.' Before enough time passed to make it look like she cared, Huntress retorted, "What is with you people?" She shook her head, "Must you always have and do everything now?" Making sure to keep her heel dug into its place. "So unprepared," Huntress scoffed. Just when Helena was about to continue, she noticed that Live Wire's eyes were turning a glowing white- blue, takes a leap back.
"Slag! That was a present from OsCorp.! How dare you!" screamed Jenna. Her eyes were glowing, as the bolts sparked at her fingertips and palms.
"OsCorp.?" Mumbled the confused heroine. "Goblin?" she asked louder.
"More or less. I'm amazed. Didn't think the web-slinger told you about the Green Goblin." She quickly blasted a stream of electricity at Huntress.
Dodging this, Helena answered, "More or less." She came forward to punch the pail girl's face.
Jenna snatched her fist, then shocked to see that the brunette didn't get fried. It was no problem for her to avoid the jabs aimed for her head. Quickly shoving Huntress aside temporarily, noticed how far the truck was getting away. Leaping over her, Live Wire makes a mad dash after the truck.
"Get back here!" yelled Huntress from behind, trying to catch up.
"Sorry, honey! I've got a truck to catch!" With that, Live Wire transformed to increase her speed.
"Oh no you don't! Not this time!" answered Huntress as she swung like a gymnist from hanging signs and bars.
Live Wire makes it back first. As Huntress comes flying down to land on the truck, Devil's Snare and Lady Scarlet appear beneath her feet. Scarlet passes safely, but Helena accidentally lands on the guy's shoulder. Knocking him towards the street, Scarlet looks up briefly at her. "Thanks!" She grins as she passes. Helena makes a safe landing onto the speeding vehicle. She and Live Wire are both holding onto the old chords of webbing. As they trade blows, the truck zooms onto a busy street. Both of the combatants take a small break to hold on to the webbing.
As the truck jerks and jolts about, Helena eyes a huge truck shipping soda about to pass by. With the vileness still distracted, she delivers a gravity kick to send her flying into it.
* Wham! * Live Wire does just so. Crashing through the thin metal walls and into the soda crates. She screams as the soda diteariates her powers, causing her to the point of unconsciousness.
'Well! She won't be waking anytime soon!' thought the victor. Shifting her weight, Huntress taps a sensor on her wristband. This sensor will notify Reese to get his cops down here. (A/N: Jess or Reese. She doesn't have this gadget on the show and comics. I made it up.) With Live Wire out of the way, she makes her way over to the other battling pair.
Lady Scarlet lands next to her. Devil's Snare is squeezing his left wrist nearby.
"What' cha do to him?" asked the siren.
"Sprayed that wrist with my special pesticide, poison," replied Scarlet. Giggling a vile in her hand, then stuffing it back into her cloak pocket. "Do you want to nail him, or should I?" she offered.
"Do you even have to ask?" spoke an amused Huntress walking forward to take her turn.
"Duck!"
"What?!" But, she had no time to argue as she was being pushed down. Helena looked to see that they all were approaching an old warehouse.

Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai! Sorry that it took me so long to update! I've been busy pumping out other fics and coming up with ideas. (So many ideas, so little time!) Well, I didn't officially make any major refinements to this copy. Let me know if I need to spoof, edit, it up! I got a lot of neat ideas for the next chapter or so! (Also, with some inspirations for a sequel. Still not sure about making a sequel. I need to get around to working on my other fics for now, before I can come back to working on a sequel. If the readers demand it, if not, then no sequel.) ^.~
