Tears of Blood

Okay, so she may make it after all, but the thought of traversing Nosfort’s freezing streets at one o’clock in the morning only dressed in a flimsy—albeit armored—leotard made her shiver a bit more.
She glanced up at the sky, looking at the Karaoke Duo call signal, completely at a loss about what to do next. Suddenly, she remembered that the delivery box of the Vespa bike contained one of the Pollo Pronto uniforms. That may fix the cold issue a bit.
So, five minutes later Sheila Freemont, a.k.a. Fermata Girl, was speeding along Nosfort’s cold and dark streets on a puttering old motorcycle. She had overcome the more pressing issues at hand, but she was greatly discomfited with the way these problems had been solved. Somehow, she felt that going to fight crime on a rickety Vespa and dressed up in a giant, feathery chicken costume was more than a bit undignified.
