It
didn’t take him long to find warehouse 17. It was one of the larger
warehouses near the docks, with smaller rooms above the big storage
area. It was a simple thing to swing across from the roof of another
warehouse to one of the upper windows and pick the lock. Once inside,
however, he had to disable the system of security cameras that
monitored the rooms and the hallway beyond. He had just clipped the
last wire when he heard sound of fighting and shouting coming from
the big warehouse room below. He sprinted silently down the hallway
but by the time he reached the door at its end, the sounds had
stopped. Slowly, he opened the door and peered out over the edge of
the catwalks beyond. Below, on the warehouse floor, lay several
figures. Most of them looked to be hired thugs. Two of the figures,
however, were laid out in a familiar pattern, their arms crossed over
their chests. He didn’t need to see their suits to know that these
were two more of the Miazza crime bosses. Bending over them, however,
was another figure, dressed all in black. Careful to make no noise,
he jumped from the catwalk, using the ballistic fabric of his cape to
slow his descent to the floor. The bright overhead lights threw his
shadow over the figure, causing them to turn. He could tell from the
shorter distance that the figure was a woman, but a black hood and
mask covered her hair and the upper half of her face. There was
something strange about her eyes but he couldn’t be sure as she
turned and ran. He hit the ground, rolling to break the fall, and
sprinted after her. He lost sight of her when she dodged through a
small door and, by the time he had reached it, she was already up the
wall of another close-by warehouse. He was impressed; she was fast.
Without stopping, he fired his grapnel at the roof, letting the pull
of the automatic reel and his own momentum speed him up the side of
the building. She was already up and, with a glance back at him,
sprinted for the far edge of the flat warehouse roof. He moved to
stop her but then, with an amazing leap, she cleared the edge of the
roof and landed smoothly on the roof of one of the first dockside
apartment buildings, an impossible distance away. He followed,
letting his own jump carry him halfway and then firing the grapnel
again to swing him across the remaining distance. Again she hesitated
when she saw him following but then she was off again, sprinting
across the rooftop and jumping the small gap between the apartment
building and the next. He followed and they continued like that for
several blocks.
