( God damn it. Helena doesn't have time to even let herself be exasperated, because she has to pursue Stephanie. No matter what's happened, what the details are, she doesn't feel like leaving her alone after that set up is going to mean anything good at all. As much as she wants to vault onto her bike, this doesn't seem like the moment for a motor chase, so she's moving on foot, leaping and rushing through the air with her own grapple gun, trying to make a guess as to possible routes Stephanie will take.
Suffice to say there are probably some dislodged tiles, dramatic rolls and impressive leaps in this story. But, gentle reader, we are skipping ahead to the point where Helena starts to feel a little tired of this; she draws her grapple gun again, takes careful aim, and watches as it tangles around Stephanie's ankle mid-leap. She keeps hold of the gun as she approaches, watching as Stephanie swings, and doing nothing to release her from the suspension, for a moment. )
