Steel stared at him a moment. It caught her off guard a bit. "Become human? Would...how would..." she started. Become human? Staying a robot would be much better for combat. She could simply be rebuilt if she was damaged too much, and she could endure many more attacks. She already had pain receptors, and artificial emotions. But...then she'd be able to do much more if she was human...in a way. She'd actually be able to feel something other than pain. Taste food...

Flash let his head fall back against the wall and closed his eyes. It hurt to think. "I'm assuming," he added after a second, "That you'd end up with pretty much the same powers that Sapphire Spider has. ... I'm not really sure what those... are, but I'm sure they're... Powerful... powers. Yeah." He paused. "Up to you. Obviously. And you don't have to decide right now."

Steel paused a moment and looked at him, deciding on something like that didn't seem so important at the moment. "Is there somewhere I should take you? A hospital?" she didn't really like how he had to take pauses as he talked. Was his head hurt? Didn't too much damage to a human's head cause severe problems?

"Bah," Flash said with a wave of his hand, "Hospitals are for pansies. And..." he added somewhat sheepishly, "For people without secret identities. I'll be okay. I'm always okay." To prove his point, he started pulling himself gingerly to his feet.

ENTER Warp and Sapphire Spider from Gotham
Steel relaxed a little. She hadn't thought about the whole dual identity thing. "If you say so." she replied.
Well...what to do now then? She didn't want him going after anyone else just yet. Perhaps she could try to find the people that escaped herself and catch them for him.
About that time, a figure could be seen flying through the sky from Gotham.

Flash's eyes happened to catch the movement, and he immediately brightened. "Superman! Hey! Super.... That's not Superman..." He stared for a couple more seconds, then his eyes widened, and he shot off in the direction that the figure was flying, trying to position himself underneath it. As soon as he managed, he started making fairly small circles with both of his arms at super speed, making two tornadoes that effectively cushioned the fall.
Slowly, he stopped spinning his arms, and easily caught the... woman. SPIDER? But he'd just... Oh. No. It was that other one. What was she called? In any case, she did not look good. Very, very carefully, he lowered her to the ground, then checked for a pulse.

Barely a split second later, there was a small but loud screeching sound, and a man blurred to a stop just in front of the two. On his toes and looked as if he were just about ready to trip over them.
He paused and stared at the other man a moment, then shot his attention down towards the woman. Not even bothering to check for injuries, he bent down and placed a hand over her head while the other went to her stomach. He used his powers to speed things up, hoping to heal anything. If she could think, she could heal herself...

Flash zipped out of the way to allow the man access... which is not to say that he didn't keep zooming to different spots to get a look at what he was doing. He didn't say anything, though; contrary to popular belief, even he could tell when things were serious enough to shut up.

Warp paid no attention to the other man, though he did keep an eye out in case he got too close. He was ticked. Really ticked. And it was apparent on his face at this point. First Roxanne...now Misty. He was going to throtle someone before everything was over.
After a few moments, Warp had Sapphire's stomach completely healed, and was now working on some of the apparent impailed inflicted wounds. Something was wrong though...with his powers on her head, she still should have woken up by now. She certainly would have been breathing...which she wasn't.
Taking his hand away from her head, he moved it towards her mouth and slowly worked his way down, trying to figure out what was wrong that he couldn't see. Once he reached her neck, he cursed and moved both hands towards her throat, the color of the powers changing. Her spine was nearly snapped in half, and her troat had collapsed. It was a wonder her head was still where it should be. He needed to reverse this, try to move everything back to the way it was so she could revive herself.
A second or two later, she finally gasped for air, her eyes shot open, glowing blue. Warp sighed quietly to himself. That was a sign that her "other" powers had kicked in, and she'd be alright now. She wasn't concious yet, but she was healing.
As the glowing of her eyes died down, he finally turned his attention towards the man.

Flash was still looking at the woman. "Um... Is she okay?" Kind of a dumb question; of course she wasn't. He couldn't think of anything else to say, though. The last time he'd seen someone that badly beaten, it had been Superman, and Superman had been DEAD.

"She will be." Warp replied after a moment of hesitation. "Her spine was still in tact enough that she'll be able to heal herself. Plus I can speed up the process if needed. Just have to make sure someone keeps an eye on her untill she wakes up." Which...honestly could be days. He had no idea what kind of other internal injuries she had, or how bad she'd gotten knocked around. But Roxanne had been pretty bad as well, and she pulled through with his help.
"Thanks, by the way." he said, assuming that Flash had caught her.

Flash nodded. "Glad I could help. I just don't understand how she could have flown so f..." He trailed off, all the color draining out of his face. "Oh, no." Darkseid, Apocolypse... Or Kara. That was all he could think of.

Warp felt a little uneasy once he noticed the look on the man's face. "What?" he asked.
About that time, the woman on the ground began to stir a bit.

Flash thought for a second longer, then grinned. "Oh, probably nothing. This apocalyptic atmosphere is going to my head." Darkseid would have enslaved her, Apocalypse was gone, and Kara WOULDN'T. Period. Hearing the woman groan, he looked down at her. "Jeez. Poor thing." He paused. "Should we move her? It isn't exactly safe to be out on the street right now, if you hadn't noticed."

Warp paused and looked down at her as well. He really hadn't expected her to be even close to awake yet. "Maybe. I don't know what happened to her, or if anyone would be looking for her. Still not to sure about moving her neck yet..." he replied as he bent down to work a bit more of his powers over her head and neck.
Her eyes slowly began to open about the time his hands were close to her neck. They suddenly widened and she tried to jerk away, instantly wincing in pain. Warp quickly grabbed her and tried to hold her still. "Hey, easy. Easy, it's just me." he said, trying to get her to calm down. Whatever had happened...definately scared her.
She looked at him, and quickly looked around her, trying not to move her neck. Realizing that she was in fact safe, she closed her eyes and instantly relaxed.
