Caty dropped Liz off at home before returning to the city to experiment with her abilities. She knew there were safer ways to experiment, but she also knew real life experimentation provided the best results if she didn't die in the process. But that was science and life. They were about risks. She found herself back atop the skyscraper she sat on with Liz earlier. She stood overlooking the city and looked to her shoulder to see the Metallic Blue Jumping Spider from this morning. He had been following her all day and she honestly thought it was cute. She just hoped this wouldn't be the case with every spider in the city. She was not interested in being their Spider-Queen and turning her house into a giant nest. The thought caused her to shiver which she noticed that the spider took note of.

[color=E137E3]"I guess I should name you. Can't just go around calling you Metallic Blue Jumping Spider or Spider. What about Jumper? You like that?"[/color] Caty couldn't believe herself. She facepalmed and sighed. [color=E137E3]"What has my life become? I'm talking to a spider like it's a dog or baby. It's not like it understands names. It can't even talk."[/color]

Jumper seemed to disprove at least one of those by nodding his head towards her showing her that he liked the name Jumper.

[color=E137E3]"Huh. Jumper it is then. I don't assume you know how to be a superhero, do you?"[/color]

Jumper shook his head no.

[color=E137E3]"Figured. No biggie. I can patrol or I can listen to this police scanner I downloaded on my phone."[/color] She pulled her phone out to turn on the police scanner app and started to listen. [color=E137E3]"I wonder if I'll see Gwen's dad."[/color]

For a while there was nothing on the scanner. Things that the cops could handle easy or were too far away for her to get to in time. Then she heard them talking about a silent alarm being triggered at a nearby jewelry store. This was perfect. Her first time out and she was going to get to face a real life criminal. She knew she shouldn't be excited, but if she were to be honest, she was. Before she left she wanted to try something. She thought something towards Jumper and as soon as she did he crawled into the hood of her hoodie. She didn't even have to speak to communicate with her little buddy. This was perfect.

She jumped down from the roof and felt the wind pressing against her hoodie. She could actually feel every bit of the wind throughout her body. It was a weird yet pleasant and welcoming sensation. Like all of her senses were boosted. Before she got too close to the street she stretched her arm out towards the building next to the one she just jumped from and used it to swing herself forward. People looked in wonder and amazement, but she didn't have time to stop or interact with them. She'd have plenty of time for that later, but for now she had a thief to stop.

She swung through the city until she reached the jewelry store and landed right in front. The window was shattered. No wonder the silent alarm was triggered. She sighed at the naivety of the crook, but it made her job easier. She stepped inside quietly making sure to avoid the glass before launching a web at the ceiling and using it to pull herself up. The sound of the thwip caught the robber's attention, but she was already out of sight by the time he turned around. He went back to what he was doing and she crawled along the ceiling until she was a few feet behind him. She attached another web to the ceiling and crawled down it like a spider.

[color=E137E3]"Wedding ring, birthday gift, anniversary present, or an 'I messed up really bad' gift?"[/color]

The robber turned around and aimed his gun at her. "Huh?"

[color=E137E3]"I mean, it's gotta be a reason you'd break into the jewelry store. I'm hoping you're a romantic."[/color]

"The Hell are you?" He asked while firing three shots at her.

Caty felt a ringing in her head before new friend even reached for the trigger. Her body moved on instinct to avoid the bullets before she dropped to the ground while launching a web at the gun and pulling it to her. She shook her head and the index finger of her free hand. [color=E137E3]"No guns. How can I answer if you shoot me? But I haven't thought of a name. Spider-Queen? Spider-Woman? I don't know. Whatever the press decides I guess."[/color]

The robber was tired of hearing her voice and decided to shut it up for good. He didn't care that she currently had a gun or those weird webs. He threw a series of punches that Caty easily avoided. Every punch felt so slow to her and as if she had all the time in the world to react. Her perception, speed, and reflexes were all enhanced. She wondered... Caty tossed the gun to the ceiling and webbed it for safety. Feeling that they were back on even ground the thief continued his flurry of attacks. She continued to avoid them and after the fifth punch in his combo she placed her finger in front of his head and flicked him. To her surprise she sent him flying back into the jewelry showcase. Caty walked closer and noticed he was unconscious, but still alive. She was glad she didn't punch him. She'd have to get used to her strength so she wouldn't accidentally kill anyone. She tapped him to see if he'd awake, but nope. He'd be out for a while and the police would be here soon. It'd be fine if she left him here for a while.

[color=E137E3]"Not bad for my first night on the job, aye Jumper?"[/color] She asked as she walked over to the dropped bag of jewels so she could place them back inside the showcase. She stayed a bit longer than she should have because as soon as she walked outside she was met with armed police officers.

[color=E137E3]"I'd like to stay and chat, but I gotta go!"[/color]

[color=6ecff6]"Wait!"[/color] The leading officer said. Caty didn't want to and shot a rope of web to get out of there, but once she did she noticed it was Gwen's dad, Captain Stacy. She launched herself into the air.

[color=E137E3]"Maybe next time! Your guy's inside! Woooohooooo!!!"[/color]
