Joker and Harley drive along slightly confused. They saw the blur but nothing had happened. (Are we using the Joker from the comics, Suicide Squad, or what Batman Movie to TV show. I like Heath Ledger's version.) Anyway, in an alley, Spark pulls a detonator from his belt. He clicks the little button and the car explodes in an electric blast from beneath.

Element walked swiftly after she saw the Lambo. gotta get to the library…. she thought.

"Element!" Whitehot shouted, racing to catch up with the younger heroine. "Wait up!"

Element heard Whitehot, and began to walk even faster.

Spark watched from the shadows as he saw the two walk past the alley he was in. He dashed to the library before either could arrive. He began reading a Superhero comic about himself, while he used his electro-sense to tell what was going on

Whitehot saw Element run faster, so she bent the light around her, effectively making herself invisible. If Element couldn't see her, she couldn't run from her. If Element couldn't run from her, Whitehot could catch up to her. Which she did as soon as Element walked into the library.

"WHAT do you want?!" Element hissed, when she discovered Whitehot again.

Whitehot's disguise of light fell away, and she stared at Element in shock. "How did you know I was here?" she wondered. No one ever saw through the light trick, not even her own superhero boyfriend, Nightquake.

"I have my secrets." she shrugged.

"Okaaay," Whitehot said. "Anyway. I want you to tell me more about this 'Golden Star.' Is it a group? An actual star?"

"Well NO its a group. They steal artifacts from museums."

"Okay. So tell me about them." Whitehot demanded, then she looked thoughtful for a moment. "Actually, follow me. We should talk about this here, and I know a good place."

Kylie was busying herself in the library, flipping through books in the Magic section, trying to locate an answer. Mark had provided her with the bodies of the victims; they all had strange marking burned into their bodies. Kylie sighed when the thirtieth book she got contained no such information. Huffing, Kylie closed the book and leaned back in her chair, biting her lip.
Kylie's sensitive ears twitched as a voice reached them, and curiously she moved her eyes towards the source and locked eyes with a woman. There were two of them, and the way they were standing, their bodies tensed, made Kylie realize they were talking about something extremely important. It piqued Kylie's interest, especially when she heard 'Golden Star.'
"Actually, follow me," said the girl Kylie locked eyes with. "We shouldn't talk about this here, and I know a good place."
Something in Kylie told her these two weren't up to anything good. She could tail them easily, but it wasn't something she would concern herself with. They were dealing with Golden Star; she was dealing with something else. She knew, like any Hunter, that interfering with another's mission gave a harsh punishment, but only if you screwed things up. So Kylie resumed reading her book as she watched the two girls walk away from the corner of her eyes.

Whitehot locked eyes with a girl on the other side of the library. The girl quickly shifted her gaze back down to her book, but Whitehot could tell that she wasn't paying it much attention. Her posture was too tense, not relaxed like it should have been if she was doing something innocent. Whitehot groaned inwardly. She didn't want to have to deal with more people than she had to for this mission.

"Wait here for a second," she said, turning to face Element. "I'll be back in a few."

Whitehot walked over to the girl and cleared her throat. "Excuse me," she said. "Do you happen to have to the time?"

"Excuse me," a voice interrupted Kylie's train of busy thoughts. "Do you happen to have the time?" Kylie looked up slowly, her red eyes once again locking with the eyes of the girl from earlier.
"As you can see," Kylie murmured, her eyes half closed as if she was disinterested. "I'm quite busy. But I could spare some time if this is important."

Red eyes. That's a new one, thought Whitehot.

"Well, if you wouldn't mind, I just wondered if you had a phone that I could borrow. You see, I'm supposed to check up on a friend today, but I seem to have forgotten my phone at home," she said as convincingly as possible. It was a good thing she was one of the best in her theatre class in high school, acting seemed to come in handy when you were a superhero.

Loki was sitting in a quiet corner of the library, reading a book while levitating it.
