(From here:)

She needs to get out of here, or she needs to get a costume. In Gotham she's got her costume and can go on an anti-monster rampage but she's got civilians here and also no backup. They likely don't even know she's gone. Which itself is terrifying.

Circling around the station brings them to a chain link fence surrounding what looks like a parking lot. There's a rusty lock on the gate, but she can see the door on the inside hanging slightly open.

"Wait here." Genevieve tucks the rebar into her bag and starts scaling the fence, tiny feet tucking between the links. Her teeth are gritted against the way the metal scrapes against her fingers.

Oh good. Now they have it's attention. And Genevieve all over him like the world's angriest cat is not helping. But the fresh adrenalin dump helps keep him moving and praying they find a small alley, or a gate or something that they can duck into that it can't follow behind them. (He does have a minor heart attack when one of Genevieve's shoe heels catches on his shirt and tears it a little, though.)

And it's furious. Charging after them and bellowing in its rage, its porcelain face switched out from the smiling, moon-face to a screaming baby, face twisted with rage at not getting a lolly. But Jimmy doesn't have that much more before the first stitch stabs its way into his side, followed by the burn in his lungs starting to really heat up.

The fenced-in courtyard behind the building seems like a godsend, dashing through the open grate and maybe buying them a few seconds to try and remember what air actually is.

That was.... No, Jimmy has no idea what in the hell actually happened. Genevieve yelled at the thing and it left? In a sulk even!

.... What!?

He looks from where the monster was, to Genevieve and then back at the empty space before the running catches up with him and he sort of crumple into a sit.

"Your guess is as good as mine." Now that it's certain that they're not going to die horribly by... whatever that thing was, a few minutes to catch his breath is divine.

After a few minutes of getting his breath back and not feeling like he's been trying to outrace Usein Bolt, he looks back at Genevieve. "... How did you make it go away?"
