[ It's a bad situation-- Spirit of the Century or no, her physical strength is still only at the level of a fifteen year old girl. If she'd been Jenny Sparks, maybe this wouldn't even have been such a risky situation, but she's a young century baby in a foreign universe facing down an incredible power. It's good that, at least, she's not the type to get nervous-- even when it looks like she's about to get smashed into the nearest building.

Her quantum bursts just aren't going to cut it now. But maybe she can still save herself this one time. She squeezes her eyes tight, tries to focus past the sensation of air rushing by, the sense of impending impact, and wills a shift in the reality around her. She can feel it, the way this universe resists her, how it doesn't quite fit right, and then-- suddenly, it yields.

The second the first fiber of her leather jacket touches that building wall, a hole just large enough for her to pass through unharmed opens up as concrete and plaster dissolves into hundreds of butterflies, flocking up towards the dark sky, rushing past them until they've passed through almost the entire building this way, and then, at the ground floor--

Impact. Jenny feels the crushing pain when the universe shoves back, rights itself, and everything is just solid, abruptly.

Ah, fuck--
