A portion of 'Old' Gotham City that had never been reconstructed over after No Man's Land has appeared in the new Universe. Over half of the buildings are mostly rubble, and even the more intact ones are partly destroyed, due to the earthquake that had triggered that tragic era of Gotham City history.

[enter Mr. Freeze from Gotham City]
Mr. Freeze hurried through the rubble and destruction of this little-travelled area to find a particular area. He remembered where it was quite well; he could never forget it. He would never allow himself to forget. Oh, how he would make Gotham pay for the death of his dear Nora. The reminder of the agony caused by the monstrous earthquake was almost enough to bring him joy. Almost. Just another half a mile, if that.

Mr. Freeze finally reached it. The entryway to his hideout. He could easily make a new one, but he wouldn't. Not considering what was in here. He opened the door and walked in. The door closed behind him.

{Enter Warp and Supergirl from Gotham}
The creature was not happy. At all. It had left its former host there with the Shadow Spider, and it couldn't go back to get him, because his new blood would KILL its current host. This was ridiculous. And no, it was NOT JEALOUS. It had a better host now. Stronger. Easier to manipulate, although that was mostly due to insane luck. Who would have guessed that the girl would encounter so many things to fracture and damage her psyche in such a sort period of time.
So... What now?
It couldn't stay there. It's former host would be able to sense it, and the Shadow Spider would use that. Tempting as it was to hurt her beloved in retribution, the creature knew it simply didn't have the time. So... What? Hide out in the Satellite? On the Moon? No. It would not hide.
Looking at Warp's limp body, its mouth extended into a nightmare smile. Then again... Maybe it could play this to its own advantage. Or at least have some fun. Drive the Shadow Spider craaaaazy.

((Sure. It isn't terribly invested in this situation either way. Mostly, it just wants to distract her, tire her out, and then get back and have a talk with Riku.))

ENTER from Gotham
The shadow under Warp suddenly spun and expanded. It soon began to cover the larger portion of the ground, and Shadow Spider soon emerged only a foot or two away from them. Flicks of shadow danced around the bottom of her cloak like bits of smoke rolling off the ground. Her rare indication that the area around her was deadly to anyone who got too close to her.
She stared silently at the woman.

The next moment, the creature was about 100 feet away, Warp still in hand. "Get that close to us again, with your shadows or otherwise, and this one breaks. Messily. Are we understood?"

"Yes. And if anything else happens to him, someone else breaks. Messily. Understood?" Shadow replied in a controled tone.

The creature actually grinned. "And why on earth should that concern us? Do you honestly think that we have an ounce of... what is the term... humanity? Let us disillusion you right now; we do not. We are perfectly aware that our former host is trying to kill us; you would actually be saving us quite a lot of hassle, not to mention pain."

Shadow's jaw clenched. "Is that so? Then perhaps I was simply hearing things when you screamed 'don't touch him'. You know, right before you knocked Warp out."

"Must have been," the thing replied rather mildly, "You are looking pretty unstable. We would HATE to upset you further," it added, its tone conveying the exact opposite. "Especially since we finally have a host without all those pesky extra thoughts, and free will, and morals. It's like a weight off our shoulders. We are in an awfully, awfully good mood. So... How about a game?"

"I don't play games." she replied quietly. Her arms were held shakily to her sides, and her fists were clamped into tight balls. It was all she could do to keep her rage from showing through.

"Oh," the creature replied, its tone still mild, "Too bad. We thought you liked him, too. Our mistake."
At those words, there was a very feminine, very amused giggle. The creature went very still for a moment, but the sound did not repeat itself.

// *cocks head to side* Was that her, or is someone else finished with their fun? //
Shadow stood very still and very silent for a moment. "What kind of game did you have in mind." she asked quietly.
