CHAPTER 2
Helena returned to her feet and stared down the doppelganger who had an evil grin on her face. Helena returned the grin. "A shape shifting meta-human, nice!" The two of them walked in a circle, refusing to look away.
"Impressed? I know I am. I just like the feel of being you. I might just keep this shape."
"Well, I want to know the identity of the real person whose ass I'm about to whip!"
"There's one thing you should know about me, Huntress?"
"And what can that possibly be."
"That everything you can do, I can do better." The doppelganger attacked with a high kick across Helena's face. She was extremely fast, that Helena didn't see it coming. The speed and force behind the kick sent her feet flying over her head. Helena dropped her hands over her head and onto the ground. She pushed off the ground to finish her cartwheel back onto her feet. She was ready when the doppelganger swung a fist at Helena.
Helena caught her arm with her left hand. She raised her left leg and wrapped it over their arms so her foot was in front of the doppelganger's face. She kicked her in the face. Helena let go of her arm and brought her left leg down and stood there ready to defend any retaliating assaults.
The doppelganger went to kick Helena in the face but she blocked the kick by crossing her wrists in front of her face. As soon as the ankle of the doppelganger's leg made contact, Helena quickly snapped hold of the ankle. Before Helena could take advantage, the doppelganger used her other leg to push herself up in the air and kick Helena across the face as she was twirling in mid air.
The kick sent Helena twirling horizontally in air as well, but the difference was that the doppelganger landed on her feet while she hit the ground on her back. The doppelganger tried to stomp down on Helena's forehead, but Helena caught her ankle and twisted it as hard as she could. This caused Helena's adversary to flip and fall flat on her face. Using her agility, she virtually flew up onto her feet almost as if she had flying powers.
The doppelganger pushed up as if doing in a push up but in the same way as Helena, that push up sent her flying up onto her feet as if she too had the power to fly. "As you can see, everything you can, I can do just as well, if not better."
"And as you can see, I can take just as much as I dish out!" Helena grinned devilishly.
"And I can dish out more than you can, Huntress," the doppelganger's reply was. Suddenly she began to morph into another person, and the person she had turned into brought anger into Helena. The shape shifting doppelganger had taken the form of Dr. Quinzel or how Barbra knew her as, Harley Quinn. "Maybe you like me in this form better. Maybe I can get more of a challenge from you this way."
The voice of the woman Helena had extreme hatred for caused an explosive rage in her. She tried to kick the Quinzel doppelganger in the gut. However, she flipped over the kick, and began to do back flips to avoid the other kicks that Helena followed up with. She stopped her back flips and ducked under the last kick. While she was still ducking, She used her right leg and kicked at Helena's one leg that she was standing on. Helena was swept off her feet and landed on her back.
The Quinn Doppelganger stood up and walked towards Helena. When she was close enough, Helena, somehow, rolled herself up onto a hand stand. On the way up, her right foot kicked her nemesis under the chin. Helena flipped back on to her feet.
They were in the middle of a silent street. There was no walls or railings to use to escape or use in an attack. This was going to be a street fight until someone had lost. Helena had no intentions of escaping. She was going to find out who this person was who attacked her and why?
The one thing that Helena noticed that whoever this shape shifting meta-human changed into, she takes on every quality, from voice to fighting skills and moves. The more these two fought, the more moves this adversary was learning and become harder and harder to defeat. If this was the case, then it was obvious that this person know Dr. Quinzel. What was their connection? If there was one, Helena was going to force it out of her and get some answers here.
"Who are you and what do you want?" Helena said, breathing heavily but trying to hide it so not to let her know that she was starting to tire.
"So, you want to know the real me, do you?" The evil grin on her face was exactly the same grin of Harley Quinn. "Not convinced that I may be Dr. Quinzel or even you for that matter? Very well."
Once again, she whole body began to shift in height and form as did her clothes. By the time her transformation was done, she was a medium height, black haired woman. Her eyes blacker than any black eyes that she had ever seen. It was like eyes of death. She was wearing a black leather coat that went all the way down to her ankles. "This was my original shape before my meta-human powers kicked in. I liked to be called Raven!"
"Well, Raven. Let's see what you can do?" Huntress replied.
"You've asked for it." Raven jumped high up and flipped three times in mid air as she flew over Helena and landed behind her. With lightning quick speed, she kicked Helena across the neck, which was a devastating blow. It sent her stumbling sideways. She made a flying leap towards Helena and planted the flat of her foot into her chest, sending her flying several yards into street light. The impact brought the street light crashing down to the ground.
Helena refused to give up and struggled to her feet. There was a small speck of blood trickling down from her lip. She wiped the blood from her lip and looked at Raven with death in her eyes. Raven was laughing at her. "You wanted to see what I can do, and now you are going to see me at my best!"
Helena leaped aimlessly at Raven high above her head. She met her with a giant leap and kicked her with the flat of her foot into Helena's gut. Sending flying above the first floor window of a brick building. She hit the ground with a thud.
Raven walked confidently towards Helena who was crawling towards Raven, Raven kicked her in the ribs, causing her to roll over onto her back. Raven stood by her head and lifted her foot over Helena's face.
Helena looked up to see the flat of Raven's foot a few feet over her head. Raven was looking down at her with a false sympathetic smile on her face. "Good night, Helena Kyle!" Raven brought her foot down in force, and everything went black.

Barbra was on the controlling her wheel chair in the same way a normal person would be prancing back and forth. Dinah just stood there, not sure what to do or say. "Something is seriously wrong now. She has been gone far too long," she said agitatedly.
"I'm sure she can take of herself," Dinah replied innocently, but she knew it was of no help.
"I've searched almost everywhere for her, and found nothing," Reese said, entering the base in a fast paced prance. Barbra had contacted him and asked him to help try to track her down, despite the odds. Trying to track down Helena when she didn't want to be found was impossible, especially with her Meta-human powers. She can go places no normal person could go. "Do you really believe she's in trouble?" He said, walking up to Barbra on the platform.
"I don't what to think. She has run off to be alone before, but never for this long. She didn't even take her ear piece or video feed contact lens. There is no way for us to know where she is or get a hold of her unless she wants to be found."
"She has taken down some pretty nasty villains. I'm sure she will be all right."
They heard the elevator door slide open. All three of them raced off the platform to go see Helena. Helena was on her hands and knees and looked up at them dazed. Her face was swollen and black and blue with blood trickling form her mouth.
"Helena?" Barbra said in disbelief. Helena fell forward and slipped into unconsciousness..
Helena returned to her feet and stared down the doppelganger who had an evil grin on her face. Helena returned the grin. "A shape shifting meta-human, nice!" The two of them walked in a circle, refusing to look away.
