Surprise Mother fucker!
Upload ahead of schedule in fact fuck my schedule I'm just gonna post whatever I want whenever I want. Who's going to stop me?
Anyway bro, I had to spend like all Friday taking my grandma to the hospital because she fell and her leg was swollen. Tell me why this shit is took like 5 to 6 hours? As I'm writing this, I'm still waiting to hear back about what's going on with her fully but whatever.
So there I am writing while she's going around in her wheelchair and I haven't eaten at all today. Mind you I got up at like 7-8 AM. As I'm sitting there writing this it's 5pm and I'm still here! WTF hospital! Think I was just hungry and angry but come on!
Don't get me started about the economy either costs less to buy a zip of weed than to fill up my gas tank really think about that.
Gotta choose your gas wisely huh 🤣
Honestly, it's times like these that make me miss my dog more than anything.
Anyway, today's song is the Pink Panther theme by Henry Mancini!
Now let's get on to the chapter.

[ Gotham City, New Jersey ]
[ Selina Kyle / Catwoman ]
[image here]
"Here kitty kitty!" Some deranged hunter girl yelled as she chucked a literal spear at Selina's head.
She'd made a full-fledged career out of getting out of sticky situations but this was definitely more of a headache than she'd been hoping for.
Sure she'd considered just playing Black Mask's game like every other random citizen of Gotham but she'd never been one to follow the rules.
Instead, she'd snuck her way on down to the docks grabbed one of their nifty little helmets as a disguise, and planned to steal the cash they were storing down there, and boy was there plenty of it.
More hard cash in one place than she'd ever seen and she'd sold priceless paintings and crazy artifacts dozens of times.
The only problem was the very angry blonde hunter woman who had caught her with her hands in the proverbial cookie jar.
Now she was running from rooftop to rooftop trying to escape some savage woman throwing spears and daggers. Seriously where the hell was she keeping them all?
She thought it didn't really matter as she managed a flip over the blonde girl's twin blades, which glowed a deadly yellow in the moonlight.
"You're only prolonging the inevitable little kitten!," The woman roared as she whipped out another three glowing daggers. Selina didn't have time to pull out her whip to parry, so when she landed on her first flip, she continued spinning into a series of cartwheels.
"Sorry but I'm not one to lie back and take a catnap while someone is coming for my hide," Selina smirked noting the girl's growing frustration. She was just a girl indeed now that Selina took the time to look. In fact, if she had to guess she probably wasn't much older than Holly was.
The three blades tinged off the rooftop into the night and the slow roll of thunder crackled overhead as the two continued their battle.
Eventually, Selena did manage to unzip her costume and pull out her whip, and start getting in a few good kicks. Despite what her appearance suggested Selina more than excelled at close combat and the hunter girl didn't exactly have the patience that most fighters did.
Even so, it was enough to manage to gain the upper hand on the cat burglar. From what she can tell her style mainly revolves around Krav Maga and her fighting style is highly instinctive and unpredictable in nature.
Luckily for Selina the girl is also still in her teens and although she's good and in extremely good physical condition at the end of the day none of that matters.
Selina manages to get the girl's blades away from him with the whip only for the blade to grab the weapon and pull it out of her hand before turning it back on the cat.
Unfortunately for her opponent, her little hunt was cut short when. She's suddenly wrapped up by a surge of vines.
To her credit, the vines don't knock her out or make the blonde any less ferocious but Selena is half sure that she would stand no chance against Poison Ivy or whoever it is that just did that.
She hears feet landing on the rooftop behind her and she flips through the air by reflex, twisting around to get a good look at whoever it is.
She's half expecting to see the half-naked plant woman she can almost confidently call a friend when instead she's met by the sight of a very different person.
Landing she lifts a brow as she stares at the small figure before her. Tuning out the growls and roars of the very angry huntress behind her she analyzes the boy in front of her.
His eyes glow a bright green and he has dark skin and pale white hair. His hand was outstretched towards her or more likely the blonde girl behind her. Judging from his looks she was probably dealing with a super of some kind and a very young one at that.
"Hello there!" The boy says cheerily waving a hand at her while stepping closer
"Who might you be?" She asked cocking out her hip and placing a hand on it. She might have looked casual but in truth, she was even more on guard than usual, and more than that, she was regretting the fact that she hadn't brought out her best gear for this.
"Tch your supposed to say, General Kenobi," The boy poured cutely and she took in his features. She could already tell he'd be quite the looker when he grew up. From what she could guess from his height he was about 6 maybe 8 years old at most. That or he was just tall for his age.
"Am I now?" She smiled and she noticed a small raven land on the boy's shoulder. Yet another oditity but the kid seemed comfortable with it and he didn't bring it up so neither did she.
"Yes, lady! What? Have you never watched Star Wars?" He put a hand to his chin in contemplation "Is Star Wars a thing here?"
"Yes, I suppose," She said chuckling, honestly if it wasn't for the obvious display of superpowers her guard would be down by now.
"Ahem where are my manners, my name is Kai it's nice to meet you," The pale-haired boy stepped over to her and lifted his hand for a shake.
"Catwoman," She said with a smile. The boy seemed to be sweating enough if not a little scatterbrained. She reached down and shook the little boy's hand.
"I saw that crazy lady chasing you and I thought I'd help. The city is going crazy tonight it's like The Purge but in real life," He grinned up at her before turning around.
"Now let's deal with you," She heard his voice darken slightly, and before she knew it new vines sprouted from the rooftop and aimed sharpened points up at the suspended huntress.

[Third Person POV]
[Kairo Oyama]
Kai had already gotten an extra silver ticket from defeating the huntress whoever she was. Now he just needed to remove her from the picture entirely.
He raised his hand preparing to secure the woman with his thorns when Catwoman suddenly interrupted him.
"What the hell are you doing!" She said grabbing his arm. He lifted a brow in mild confusion.
"Uh killing the bad guy?" He said questioningly, hadn't she been paying any attention to the woman trying to chuck spears at her head?
"Kill me? I'll rip you in half you little shit!" The blonde girl screamed or rather Anastasia Kravenof, at least that's what the system had called her but that didn't really matter now.
"Why would you do that?" Selina said stepping in front of him and glaring down at him while placing her hands on her hips.
She reminded him of the matron scolding Kai whenever he had done something wrong. Before Kairo could respond to her words though a loud sound pierced the air and Selina jolted forward.
BANG!
Blood spattered on Kairo's face and he quickly reacted shoving Catwoman to the side with a wind burst and generating dragon scales all over his body.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
He crossed his arms in front of his face just in time as three bullets pinged off the silvery scales. He glared between his arms as he switched them to a standard boxing block. It had been a while since he'd done any real fighting but he recalled the stances.
He charged the golden-haired woman. She'd pulled out a knife at some point probably what allowed her to get free. She also pulled out a gun, the same one she used to shoot Selina.
He ran at her as she pointed the gun at him. She fired again and again but it didn't matter as the rounds continued to bounce off. As he grew closer Kai summoned lightning in his fingers the golden girl leaped up trying to dodge and she probably would have if a set of roots suddenly didn't grow behind he feet.
Unfortunately for her they did and it caused her to trip backwards as a result when Kai touched her there was nothing she could do to stop herself from getting knocked out a second time.
'Hmph first lightning spell did by instinct too that's awesome.'
Kairo huffed looking down at the unconscious woman beneath him.
[New Achievement! Round Two Electric Kitty Boogaloo!]
[Congratulations! You have defeated Anastasia Kravinoff a second time! Reward: x1 Random Bronze Gacha Ticket]
Kairo frowned down at the system notification. The first time he defeated her he gained a silver Gacha ticket but it seems defeating the same person twice only gave him diminishing returns.
'Shame now I really don't have a reason to keep her alive. Though I'm worried I might be a little too gung-ho with the murder here.'
"Hmmm ah fuck it," Kai grew another root cross and strung up the hunter as he took out the two new tickets.
'The last thing I need is to start getting so many tickets I forget how many I have speaking of which. Oh system open stats please.'
Just like that the system window quickly flashed in front of him and he started checking how many tickets he had on him currently.
[Status Window]
[Name: Kairo Oyama]
[Species: Mutant
[Age: 5 months old]
[Current Tickets]
[ x1 Golden Tickets ]
[ x2 Silver Tickets ]
[ x1 Bronze Tickets ]
'Hmm, that's actually a lot less than I thought it was, never mind then, I gotta get these numbers up but first.'
Kairo took out and tore the new silver ticket in half hoping it might be able to help the two of them out.
[Adept Charisma]
|Elite Skill|
[You have an aura of charisma around you, it is less of a skill and more of something that is just around you. People of note feel themselves more attracted to your presence, you are more intimidating when you want to be, you are more persuasive when you try to be, ]
'That's basically just my persuasion skill all over again. At least I'll be better at it I suppose.'
Meanwhile, somewhere on the groaned behind him Selina let out a pained groan causing Kai to jolt widen his eyes, and turn around.
'Oh shit I totally forgot about her!'
Kairo turned around and ran over to Selina's injured form which was propped up against a large metal box on the rooftop. It was at that point that Kairo realized he had never bothered to learn what exactly all the strange metal boxes on rooftops are. Shaking away the stray thought Kai focused back in on Catwoman.
"Hey, lady are you alright?" he coached down getting closer to her. She held a hand against a bleeding wound in her side, her teeth clenched hard and she shook slightly.
"What does it look-" She takes a deep breath calming down her angered response and murmuring under her breath.
"He's just a kid Selina cut him some slack," She closed her eyes flinching in pain as she sat up.
Kairo wasn't sure what to do. He hadn't done enough research on his poisons or any plants that might be useful in healing and a hospital wasn't an option right now for obvious reasons.
"Ok umm, do you have a place near here or something? I can take you there and help you get patched up."
"Yeah kid I huff got a place near here huff but how are you-" She winced every few words and it was clear to Kai that he was going to need to get her help and fast.
In that moment Kai manifested his plant form and picked her up. Selina's mouth opened wide and she was just now realizing what kind of super she had gotten into.
Crouching down, he quickly picked her up while simultaneously stuffing her wound with a few harmless plants then covered and wrapped her injury with vines to slow the bleeding and hopefully lessen the pain.
"Alright!" Kai shouted shuffling her into his arms. As soon as he did Kairo transformed once more into his larger plant mech form and lifted her into the air. Selina nearly shouted in surprise but a stabbing pain from her wound choked the sound before it was out of her throat.
"Alright, crazy cat lady point the way,"
Meanwhile, Catwoman's jaw hung open in slight shock at the boy's transformation. She stilled in his firm yet surprisingly comfortable arms for a moment before carefully lifting an arm in one direction.
"That way," She said still in slight awe and confusion before snapping out of it and pointing more firmly with her uninjured arm.
"Alright," Kairo grinned, heaving her weight one more time.
"Let's a go!" He said in a terrible imitation of Mario's accent before suddenly leaping off the roof and free-falling into the air.
"Woooohoooooo! HAHAHAHAAAA!"
"Ahhhhhhhhh! What the hell is wrong with you!?"
But as Selina screamed and Kairo laughed he suddenly bounded up into the air and towards the direction of Selina's apartment.

So it's been a while but tell me why my boss has me scheduled for three 4:45 to 11:30 pm shifts from Friday to Sunday yeah this chapter ain't coming out until later than usual 😭
Anyway, I decided that since I wasn't sure which version of Catwoman I wanted to go with this version is a mix of her absolute version and the ones that I am more familiar with.
Also, I'm switching to this version of Kraven's daughter.
