It's rare to see such a detailed account of casualties after such a battle. It definitely has a chilling war-zone feel to it.

I like to look at the consequences of superhero actions and battles; when a car is hurled at a villain, how does it affect the owner? Can they afford a new car? Did they miss out on the birth of their kid because they had no transportation? Stuff like that. This was my chance to explore that a little bit.

Chiaki *was* my guess, but you probably knew that because of what I said after your last post. $\:\)$ A bonus to being so anonymous is that she could potentially walk away from the disguise - the cops will look for Citizen Z, but she'll no longer exist. Too bad poor Killer Shrike can't do that.

Yeah, I knew you had figured it out, which actually makes me happy; it means that the clues made sense.

And while she could potentially walk away, the question is would she be willing to do so and abandon Killer Shrike to the wolves?
