After the rest of the team piled into the car Katty gunned the motor and they shot down the street headed for the highway. It was a bit of a tight fit given that it was a five person car and their were six of them but the Wonder Twins, Red Arrow and G-Man all managed to squeeze into the back and Accel took the shotgun seat.

When Katty felt Accel's hand on her shoulder and heard the girl say [color=OrangeRed]"Careful."[/color] she realized what Accel was planning to do a split second before she did it. [color=Black]"NO!"[/color] she shouted but it was milliseconds too late. Katty felt an almost electrical charge pass between Accel's hand and her body and she felt an intense pull in her gut before the entire world seemed to stop. Everything but Katty and the car was trapped in an instant of time. Even the guys in the backseat were unaware of what was going on. Though Accel could not respond Katty knew she was aware. She turned to the girl dressed in orange and shook her head in a resigned annoyance. There was nothing to be done now. All Katty could do was take advantage of Accel's boost and hope the owner of the car had insurance.

They zipped over the highway Katty weaving through vehicles that seemed to move at a walking pace. They were two blocks away from the harbor and Katty was just starting to believe she'd been mistaken. That's when she heard it, a loud [i]K-CHUNK[/i] sound echoed from the engine. It was what Katty had been afraid of. The car was about twenty years old and while by that time vehicles were almost entirely electrically powered they were also largely mechanical in nature. The mechanisms working over and over and over again so fast, in such a short time was like applying a couple thousand miles of wear and tear to it all at once. It was the same reason that speedsters wore specially designed clothing when they ran, normal fabric wore out too quickly. The engine hadn't been designed to take the abuse of Accel's powers. Katty slammed on the brakes but they were moving as such a speed and were so close to their destination that it was nigh on impossible (even with speedster-like reflexes) to stop in time. The car turned to the side with the force of the brakes and smashed straight through the police barrier separating the hostage situation from the general public. [color=Black][i]So much for the stealthy approach.[/i][/color] Thought Katty bitterly as they were dumped into the middle of the chaos.

Phantom Girl knew this wasn't the time to be dealing with the grunts. J-Man had hostages and if it looked even remotely like the Titans were gaining the upper hand he wouldn't hesitate to use them. While the Wonder Twins grandiose abilities drew the focus of most of the Jokerz, Phantom Girl when straight for the source of the problem, the head of the snake. Though several Jokerz attempted to waylay her Phantom Girl used her abilities to pass right through them. Each time she did their was a sharp jolt of pain but she was long used to that feeling and the Jokerz weren't. It was enough to stun them long enough that she didn't have to worry about a counter attack. At least not before she reached her goal.

When Phantom Girl reached the edge of the harbor rather than running for ramp that connected it to the ship she simply leapt. The boat was too high to even hope of reaching its deck but that had never been her intention. As she made contact with the hull of the ship Phantom Girl passed through it into the ship's interior. She'd misjudged the floor level. It was a far greater drop than she'd anticipated. Though rolled as she hit the ground Phantom Girl felt her shoulder pop out of its socket from the impact. [color=Black][i]Rookie mistake, stupid.[/i][/color]

She let out a cry of pain that she silenced as soon as physically able. Not a stranger to injury in the field Phantom Girl approached the wall and slammed her shoulder into hard at just the right angle to pop it back into the socket. She let out another involuntary gasp of pain. It hurt like a bitch and would probably need to be bandaged for a few days after this was over but for now she was only slightly worse for wear.

With the number of Jokerz in the process of holding the police off of the hostages Phantom Girl had been anticipating a skeleton guard in the bowels of the ship. Particularly because its only access points were on the deck with J-Man's men. Still if their were any Jokerz down here they'd have been attracted by the noise she'd made. Phantom Girl withdrew into the shadows, the darkened color scheme of her uniform letting her blend in, preparing for the company she felt sure she was about to have.
