Meanwhile, a twenty year old girl walked down the sidewalk, arms full with grocery bags. Her name was Audrey Rubenson, and she was just a normal, shy girl on her way home from shopping.
Or at least people assumed she was a normal girl.
A car came tearing down the road in front of her, veering out of control a little. She looked in the windshield, to see if the driver was drunk, and saw the strangest thing- the driver and his passengers were apparently not drunk, but fighting with the car!
She felt her back stiffen as the vehicle neared, still swerving. With a jerk of the wheel the automobile suddenly swerved towards her, bumping up onto the sidewalk.
Instinctively, the young woman almost threw herself at the building wall, paper bags clutched tightly in her arms. Her senses rang as the adrenaline coursed through her system. She could feel it starting, and she wasn't sure if she would be able to surpress it.
The vehicle passed (and missed by less than six inches) and she began to try to even out her breathing. She quickly turned to watch the car go by, still swerving wildly as though two different minds were trying to control it's movements. How strange...
Her hands tingled, and she held one up so she could see it. Sure enough, her fingernails were gradually shrinking down to normal size. No doubt her eyes were changing back to normal color as well. A glance down, and she noticed the holes in the bags. Ten of them, right where the tips of her fingers had been.
She looked around, searching for anyone that might have seen. Seeing no one staring at her, she quickly began to walk back home, her steps short but fast.

...and nearly ran into a girl who was on her way home from gymnastics practice. Her hair whipped up into a tight ponytail, the tiny half-Asian girl had been trying to watch where she waas going, but sometimes, people came at you faster than one could manage. Shaking her head sharply, she rubbed her forehead with a grumble, sitting on the floor with her gymnastics bag a couple of feet away.
Of course, she couldn't bring herself to apologize just yet... there was some sort of fight going on just a block or two away, and her eyes widened.
Just another day in Metroville...

Elektronz blinked. Something was very wrong. Her lightening bolts WEREN'T doing any damage.
"What the---?!" she muttered.
She landed on the fire escape in the defensive mode.
Okay! How do I beat her...?

Audrey stopped, but didn't offer to help the girl up. She clutched the bags tighter, almost looking as though she was trying to shrink.
"Sorry..."

Elektronz had been tossed out in to the street by Clash. She slowly got up and gasped at her injury. She could probably regenerate the flesh needed to seal that wound up and heal it over in electric form. But this ability had a limit to it too. She was back on the defensive trying to spot a weakness.

"It's all right. Totally my fault!" Tammy replied, jumping to her feet. Flashing a smile, she waved a bit and then took off. "Take care!"
Took off... into the alley. Fortunately, she had put her "extra" gymnastics uniform under her clothes before leaving. Biting her lip, she pulled off her regular clothes from over the top, shoving them into her gym bag before pulling out a small mask to slide over her eyes. That was the trouble with being a registered Super... identities to maintain!
Quickly hiding the gym bag where she was sure it would be safe, she rushed out to join the fray...

Elektronz then saw the other Super join the fight. She got up to get back in to the fight.
"Don't use nature based attacks. They don't do too much damage," Elektronz warned.

"Nature-based isn't exactly my thing," the girl replied, holding out her hands and steeling herself. "We need to try immobilizing her hands!"
With that, her eyes flashed pink as she attempted to encase their attacker's hands in crystal...

Elektronz saw crystal forming over Clash's hands. She then had one last plan of attack. She held out her hands to form lightening ball flash bangs.
"Shield your eyes before I detonate them!" Elektronz warned.

Audrey stared as the girl ran off, then shook her head and continued to hurry home. She needed to hole herself up in her apartment and try to calm herself with a cup of tea.

(OOC: Going to puppet for Nitrohoney here and give her character a chance to make a getaway here for her.)
Elektronz concentraited on the flash-bangs before one final command.
{Explode.} said Elektronz in electron.
Now to most, Elektronz was speaking in a series of buzzes, whirrs, clicks, and zaps at a higher frequency which meant that no one safe for other electronics could hear that command. It almost appeared that she were moving her mouth and no sound was comming out. The goggles shielded her eyes from the bright flash of light followed by a small series of booms and a yelp.
Clash managed to just barely shield herself. But that bright light bothered her.
"Until next time!" she shouted angrily.
With that, she took off in to the shadows without a trace. Elektronz fell to one knee as she grasped at the injury on her side. She was seriously going to need to go in to electric mode and regenerate the missing flesh. But right now, this hurt! And the blood loss wasn't doing her many favours as she was becomming a little dizzy. This was yet a firm reminder that she started off as a normal human about a year ago until the accident and that she were still very mortal.

(OOC: Just to give this RP a little kick...)
Elektronz was a little too dizzy from the loss of too much blood. She was unsteady on her feet until finally they gave out from under her causing her to fall to her knees and slump in to a near by wall.
"Azure is NOT going to be happy about this...." Elektronz muttered.
She dizzily looked over at Tammy with blurring vision.
"Thanks.... normally I work alone, but thanks...." Elektronz managed to say.

She had been hiding in a nearby alleyway when the fight began and had watched the entire thing. For the most part, she was scared and didn't want people know she had any super powers in the first place. But when the fight ended, there was this girl in the middle of the street seriously hurt.
Tera put a hand to her mouth at the injuries. How awful. She had earlier absorbed another super's healing abilitites and had left the boy laying helpless somewhere in another alley (although she wished she didn't have to harm him to get those powers), but there was little she could do about it now.
Seeing how injured the other girl was, Tera tentative approached Electronz.
"Are you alright...?" she asked timidly, "Can I help...?"
