"Why don't you shake a leg and get out of here!"
The idyllic setting of Los Angeles had been a blessing. The familiar streets, the taco stand that Kate dubbed her favorite, her infamous P.I. office near Ramone's shop; it had all been there.
But, so were other familiarities that Kate wasn't too happy to see.
Lucky, too. Although he was making chew toys out of the Stepstool minions that were lurking around the beach as well. Kate had taken it upon herself, as she did with most threats, to dive headfirst into the fray without thinking too much about the consequences.
She had some beef with Ladder Man anyway. He'd broken her leg and left her in a wheelchair while a super villain had been plotting the take down of a hospital right under her nose. Across the street. Sure, she'd found that out after getting the broken leg, but that wasn't the point. The point was Ladder Man had left her almost unable to take care of the rest of Los Angeles, but Kate Bishop? She was not about to sit in a wheelchair for months at a time and let the villains run rampant.
Except those stupid minions - seriously, who came up with Stepstool Minions - could come crawling out of the sand in Ladder Man's wake. "How the hell is that happening? There's no wood in sand!" Not entirely. Driftwood pieces probably existed. Debris from past bonfires. Kate could hear someone explaining it and she let out a sigh. "Okay, yes, there is, but -- oh, this is lame! Stop being so lame! Why are you so terrible! Like the guy who wanted to be Arachnid Dude. Oh, I gotta tell Peter about that one day."
Her monologue continued as arrows fired at the minions, splitting wood, taking off legs, breaking support rungs, and finding a second to take a breath.
