Serenity locked the store, put the keys back into her pocket, and turned away from the door. She walked down the street, her eyes looking this way and that. She was following the unofficial rule of Gotham.
*Watch out for yourself.* Serernity thought. She had been mugged two weeks ago. Or that is, tried to be mugged. She turned into an alley after checking that no one was around. She summoned the shadows to her feet and walked up the wall.
Once to the thrid story, Serenity opened her bedroom window and climbed in. She layed her purse on the bed and went to get herself something to eat. While in the kitchen, she turned the TV on to the news only to have quickly turn the volume down.
Screams and yells were coming from the black box. The reporter on scene was frantically trying to explain what was happening. "It would seem that a bomb went off, here at the old inn. No news on who did it or why."
Serenity shut off the TV and grabbed her coat, forgeting the promise of food. She opened her door and sped out. Once outside, she saw others running to the old inn, trying to get a better look.
Serenity pushed past them all. She got to the front door of the burning building. Someone yelled for her to get away from it. She summoned the shadows and used them to help camoflage herself.
Once inside, she ran from room to room, checking that no one was inside. A yell was heard and Serenity ran to the next room. A little girl was holding on to her sheets and stuffed animal.
Serenity grabbed the girl and ran back down the stairs. *Gotta get out here.* she thought. Her face was sweating and the girl had gone into unconscienceness. She ran through the building till she found the front door.
Serenity ran outside and put the girl down. A woman came up and grabbed the girl and ran off, not even thanking Serenity. Firefighters were everywhere. She just walked away. She found a tall building and climbed to the top. Once there, she watched the city, the lights, the slight smoke coming from the inn.
