His tone of voice wasn't exactly filling her with confidence, but there wasn't much else for her to say. If he expected to be a hero, he had to know his own capabilities. Meanwhile, she had her job to do.
Glancing to the side, someone shouted that he was the last one in the buildings, and the other had been totally empty. Satisfied, she nodded and, with a harsh crackle and a flash of blue, froze everything in both buildings, extinguishing the flames and coating either structure in a layer of frost. A little cruder than her usual, but time wasn't on her side. She had to get out before Mr. Nice Guy there got himself killed playing decoy.
Time to move. She'd had the techs connect her minicomm with her HeroTV bracelet, allowing her to call up a hologram with Yuuri's location. Much better than scanning the streets for bursts of flame. Spotting his ring signature on an overlaid street map, she took to the air and cut a direct path to them.
It didn't take much time when she could soar above the buildings like this. No wonder Sky High had such an easy time of things sometimes. With a ring like this, she could have been the King of Heroes years ago. Yuuri wasn't exactly making a bad showing of himself, once she got to a bird's eye view of things. Definitely had a sense of style, though she wasn't sure that fleeing from a man like Firefly was the time to show it. Not too far from the edge of the null tech-zone, either. She held her breath for a moment, glowing blue, and gave them just a little bit more to close in on the border.
Firefly looked like he realized where they were, he was trying to pull up. No time for grace, then. She spun both of her freezing liquid guns around her fingers and fired down, twisting the streams together to form an open hand the size of a car, a slap from the heavens rapidly covering the distance between herself and the twisted arsonist.
