Caitlin's bad Day
Date of Scene: 16 January 2019
Location: Unknown
Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: Fairchild, Professor Zoom




Fairchild has posed:
Tonight, Queensland is playing host to a chaotic mess of noise and explosions. Police seem slow to respond for some reason... what's more the moment you enter the area most electronics die; probably some kind of EMP device?

    One decent look from above will tell people why; Caitlin Fairchild being chased by a helicopter. Leaping from rooftop to rooftop, she's not being very sneaky, so the chopper has no problems locking on and sending a missile her way, knocking her out of the way with a deafening explosion.

Professor Zoom has posed:
Historical record suggested something was going to happen tonight involving a Caitlin Fairchild, but nothing about the context. Fortunately for Eobard, this was early enough that she's still getting used to her abilities.

Unfortunately for Caitlin, this is still early in her life as a heroine, so she's still figuring her powers out.

Professor Zoom wasn't doing anything to stop the chase for now as he watched Caitlin make herself a giant target in the night. Keeping up from behind and using a digital monocular to keep an eye in the situation was childs play. The only sign of his passage being the red lightning that flits here and there when he repositions himself. Red lightning arcs over his yellow suit as he waits for an opportunity... and soon it comes. The explosion from the missile made for a good distraction and line of sight breaker... so Zoom went into action.

Instead of hitting the ground, Caitlin felt her world suddenly shift at great speed, and she was suddenly in a run down closet in an alley somewhere, out of sight, without a clue as to how she got there from her perspective.

Up on the rooftops, Professor Zoom was very visible though, having supersped his way just below that helicopter. Red lightning arcs over his form in greater intensity as he watches the helicopter, seeing if it'll keep going... or if he needs to deal with it quickly.

Fairchild has posed:
Whoever was running the chopper was a pro because the moment he let the missile go, he started to fly up and away to avoid a counter shot or attack. Even as the explosion is finished, he's already moving the bird and speaking into his mic about Nonfriendly on the field state.
     Caitlin blinks as she looks around frowning " What the hell? " Is all she can say looking left and right trying to make heads or tails of what the hell just went down while the chopper calls for backup or tries.

Professor Zoom has posed:
When the helicopter doesn't attack him immediately, Zoom runs back a few miles... then superspeeds his way up a building with just enough momentum to get into the helicopter itself. He's in the cockpit in moments, and next to the pilot. A blurred yellow suited form and red, glowing eyes greet him when he turns to regard the Professor.

His distorted voice is monstrous almost to human ears, "Can't have you calling for help." One arm starts to vibrate, and Zoom phases it /through/ the pilots chest and into his heart, tearing it apart almost instantly as he kills the man.

Fairchild has posed:
She, of course, doesn't stay put not when you can jump like her, so she quickly leaps back up to a roof mostly to figure out where the hell she neded up. She stares in shock when she gets up there in time to see the chopper spinning and cash down into some cargo containers making the stunning redhead frown and start looking around half for who did thi half for clothes on account hers are shredded (but still PG ) .

Professor Zoom has posed:
By the time the helicopter has crash landed with a loud, horrific explosion on the rooftop below, Professor Zoom is already on another rooftop, watching the proceedings from afar... so he easily spots Caitlin when she comes back into view. He mutters to himself, "Not the brightest bulb around, is she..." before he superspeeds over opposite her.

From Caitlins perspective, Red lightning trails behind something briefly, before the blurred yellow form is standing nearby. Red lightning arcs around his form here and there like he's been struck... perpetually... and those red glowing eyes watch her. "Jumping around like a jackrabbit like that with a helicopter around is not the best way to lay low, if you were trying to get away from them." Professor Zoom mentions, almost casually, as the fire from the explosion rages nearby.

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Blinks as she looks at the explosion not sure if the guy made it or not " I was drawing them closer to the water so I could throw thin e's.. Taking them away from the people". Then it's clear she's not that dumb her jumping had a reason she was doing that on purpose as well as a lack of experience to draw them away from the population. She looks over " Thank you for saving me though.. Who are you? " She cocks her head " You don't look like flash ". She frowns trying to remember the files on the speedster as zooms outfit is similar.

Professor Zoom has posed:
"I'm not the Flash at all. Some would say I'm the reverse." Professor Zoom states as he stands there, "Call me Professor Zoom. Or the Reverse-Flash." Then, he starts to walk over to Caitlin, that red lightning flitting over his body visibly. Something is definitely going on here, "I saw the commotion and came to see who it was."

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Takes a step back and lifts her hands she knows it won't do much especially since well it's a flash type. She's quick for a human but she's still ultra slow-mo to you. As she frowns " Reverse hun.. then I'm guessing your the reverse and not friendly".

Professor Zoom has posed:
"The Flash is hardly 'friendly'." Zoom states as he starts to circle around Caitlin, "He's an egotistical moron who can't handle not being the center of attention for his 'heroics'. The more you praise him, the more interested he is." He's halfway around her, at this rate, "I'm not interested in him. I'm more interested in you." He stops in front of her. "I've heard rumors you're a product of Kryptonian hybrid work."

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Oh yeah, that makes her eye's narrow ALOT .. but it almost makes her question her mind trying to wrap around it. If this guy was from nowhere then why attack one of their choppers unless it's to make them look good. The way he spoke he hates the flash and knows him, so he's not from nowhere. She's not entirely stupid though she says nothing keeping her mouth shut but from the way her head snaps and eye's try and follow she knows she won't be able to touch him unless she gets really lucky.

Professor Zoom has posed:
"Let's see if you're easier to deal with..." Red lightning trails back and forth as Professor Zoom superspeeds over to Caitlin. A needle of pinpoint work is jabbed into her leg... and a split second later is pulled back when Zoom clearly sees it bent from the effort. He put a /lot/ of kinetic force into that attempt, so Caitlin would feel the stinging sensation.

When he's back at his standing position, the needle is brought up to his eyes... and below the blurred form Caitlin can see a smirk on his lips. "So much for that. I'll have to get the other material after all."

The needle is replaced in a pouch, before he gives a mocking salute to Caitlin, "Good luck."

Red lightning trails behind him as Professor Zoom speeds off into the night, out of sight in seconds.
