With great power comes great responsibility. How unfortunate that she’s taken this line to heart. She ought to remind herself that superheroes make it look easy because they’re fictional.
No patrolling the streets for a while. She needs to heal.
Not feeling any fear has its drawbacks – if she continues to get her backside kicked, she’s going to wind up dead soon. She needs to become stronger and faster. She needs a martial arts teacher who’ll show her how to Van Damme. Even Spidey had to learn how to use his powers.
She’ll have to learn how to vigilante responsibly.

“She needs a martial arts teacher who’ll show her how to Van Damme. Even Spidey had to learn how to use his powers.

This is a great story. I smiled large when I read the part about Van Dam. I used to watch those movies growing up. What ever happened to him BTW?

I guess for now she will take a break even Van Damme and Spidey chilled sometimes.
