For once Sarah felt as if she was doing something right, she was actually helping someone this time... the feeling was strange.... it was the same feeling she got when she read her stories.... just hard to describe.
It was a simple job that caused that funny feeling, some jerk mob stole a homless pairs way of protection, a few guns and Sarah just needed to get them back for them, it was a simple, albet potentally dangerous task, but it didn't matter to much to her, because she was doing something good, she knew because of that feeling in her chest.
As she came closer to her location she hid behind a fence, this was it, time to play the hero for once, time to do something right.

Crap, crapcrapcrapcrapcrap, Charlie thought as she sprinted down the street. She couldn’t believe the guys would do that to some poor girl! They had some sick sense of humor. The joke that they thought Charlie would enjoy was about sending some girl to the house of a very dangerous mob member. Joke was on them when her bat roughly came into contact with their tender bits. Now that was funny, not sending some girl to her death.
The black clad thief weaved through the crowd and dashed down a deserted alleyway before making a super jump onto a building rooftop. She was getting better at controlling her powers, at least her super jumps. She looked around before super jumping to a different higher building and kept up her pace. Eventually she landed near the place the guys said they sent her. Charlie reached behind her shoulder and gripped her bat looking around for any mafia guards. They seemed to be busy else where.
Playing hero wasn’t usually her thing but Charlie sure wasn’t going to let some girl get hurt or worse because her ‘friends’ decided to play a cruel joke on some poor girl. And when she saw a girl fitting the description the guys gave her she knew she wasn’t too late. “Hey, you! Girl by the fence!” She called over in a harsh whisper as she approached the girl.
Sarah had a nice little blast ready for those thugs... wherever they were right now, it was a chance to prove she wasn't what she was made to be, a chance to defy fate one could say.
So Sarah was rather stunned when a quite voice reached her ears was she found that easly? She was getting rusty, Sarah turned to face the source of the voice, an explosive flare, small in size forming in her hand
this was of course, before she noticed the way her purser was dressed, she visibly sweat dropped at the sight, not because of the outfits looks or anything, but because of what the outfit entailed, it was ether another one of those weird masked super heros she seemed to be a magnet for, or less likely, a villan, but the villans she read about always looked well... evil. Sarah tilted her head a bit, confused at the newcomer.
"I'm.... trying do something, can't this wait?
All she wanted was to do something right, just this once, why did people always get in the way?
With a watchful eye scanning their surroundings Charlie walked up to the girl then sort of sized her up to see how much of a threat she could possible be to a bunch of mobsters. And until she saw a sort of glowing from the skinny girls palm Charlie chocked her up to a two on the danger scale. Yet she took another look at the glowing and couldn’t help but raise a brow, was that a flare? Coming from her hand? Well that was cool, at least the girl wasn’t completely powerless.
Moving the danger rating to a four she sighed and scratched her forehead, pushing a stray blonde lock behind her ear. “Yea, no it really can’t,” she said and shifted her eyes to the movement of a shadow in the corner of her eye. “Look Micky and Jim they were just joking with you, alright?” Charlie reached behind to get a grip on her bat as another shadow seemed to move.
“Whatever they told was a lie, a really bad joke that you apparently took seriously. Now let’s get out of here before Fat Dominic’s guard dogs decide to do rounds okay?” She gave a nervous grin hoping she was just being paranoid but her instincts were telling her otherwise. Charlie hated it when her instincts told her otherwise…
Who was this girl, to tell her this deed was a joke?! She knew what she was doing! Helping out to people... that was... right... the hero of story helped people... yeah and that's what Sarah wanted to be! Not a weapon, a hero!
"My job... is not a joke!"
The girl kept talking about a fat Dominic and stuff why did she want her to leave anyway? Why care about the well being of her? Was she trying to be a hero to, nah..... if there was one thing mana didn't need it was rescuing.
It was then that the ringing sound of a bullet being fired rang through the air, Mana yelped as she felt intense pain in her left arm, pain... Sarah eyed the wound with her eyes before turning around to face her attackers, a small group of three armed gang members, her targets? Probably... she had to admit a preemptive strike was a wise move... but that unfournatly wasn't near enough to stop her, not with shoddy aim like that.
"Your.... Enemy"
She said simply, then tossed the flare she had formed at the group, causing a boom that blew each member away in different directions, alive or dead, she didn't know..... but she did have a little advice.
"If you were aiming to kill me, the arm was a poor target, try a vital next time"
“I’m not saying your job is a joke… well, okay maybe I am sort of.” Charlie scratched the back of her head. “Look you seem like a great kid and I don’t want you getting killed because of my friends stupidity,” she glanced at the girls hands again. “Well I don’t want you getting killed period…” Cause that would just not be cool and Charlie’d feel terrible about it for a long while. Besides the girl looked pretty cool with the whole flare thing.
Charlie ducked her head at the sound of gun fire, an automatic reaction along with her feet leaving the ground and hovering about an inch above the asphalt nothing noticeable unless you looked at her feet. The smaller girl yelped and the flying thief looked over to see her looking at a wound on her arm. Charlie looked over at the group of three and smiled nervously, “Hey guys! What’s up? We were just leaving!” She looked over at Flare girl again when she said something.
“WhaaaAAAH!” She ducked again when the small girl suddenly created an– an explosion! “Hooooly…” Charlie looked at each gang member where they landed with a rather painful sound. The she looked at the cause and gapped before shouting, “That wasn’t supposed to kill you!! IT WAS A WARNING SHOT!”
She ran a hand through her blonde hair, “Oh man this is not good… We– we really need to leave now and I’m willing to drag you kicking and screaming if need be… Oooooh frell, this is… aw man….”
Sarah was confused, when people shot you there intention should be to kill or wound shouldn't it? How could a bullet firing be considered as a warning shot? hmmm.... she should research this matter... nah, she should at least be in a safer environment first, least then there would be less chance of injury to herself.
"Drag me.... back? well.... that would probably hamper your escape more than it would aide mine...."
Sarah said, her thoughts swimming, if she left now it would mean she abandoned her mission.... but on the other hand, if there were to many of the enemy forces and her magic ran out... she would be in even more trouble, the kind of trouble you would need that extra life for.
".... Fine, I can withdraw for now, my base chances seem low right now anyway"
She said with a light chuckle, maybe she would come back later, assuming more enemies didn't spawn to quickly, she could help out the people then.
"Ok! let's go!"
And began to dash away from her intended target, clearly she would have to mount this challenge... at a later date.

The roleplay takes place after the series end of the original Teen Titans animated show, but does not include the movie Trouble in Tokyo. Since then Robin has been on something of a recruiting spree, and many new young heroes have found themselves a home in Jump City as well as Titan Tower.
