Kitten With a Whip Finds Soulmate?

By Cornelius Whimbleweather, Paragon City Chronicle

Paragon City's favorite underdog, Kitten with a Whip, has been through a lot lately.

Graduating from a tumultous teendom, she's now a strong, confident heroine in her late twenties, showing the younger generation how you too can be, well, super. Despite a series of articles that cruelly chronicled her struggles to keep her super-figure, Kitten has always maintained a positive outlook and a sassy attitude.

Often a loner, Kitten is a fierce defender of the Power, Incorporated supergroup, and can often be found helping new and older members alike. A loner who preferred not to become involved with another superhero.

Until today.

An exlusive photo reveals that Kitten with a Whip has secretly been giving kisses AND cooties to none other than Soul Alchemist, a radical, mouthy hero with a known case of Scrapper Syndrom.

"It's true," says Yakhan, the leader of their mission assignment. "Soul had been babbling away on several missions, but when Kitten showed up, he found he'd met his verbal match." She laughed. "It was kinda cute, tho. You know, cute like a uh...rash."

Best friends forever, or future husband and wife?

This reporter doesn't know for sure, but based on their banter during recent missions, something's definitely afoot.

"They ran around the mission poking each other and giving each other cooties," said Lithium Flower, a mission specialist helping out of the day. "But that doesn't mean they weren't holding their own in battle. I've never seen two heroes who can banter so much, so quickly and still keep their head in battle."

"I've never seen such open flirting. It's true, they do give a good fight, but I've never seen a duo that could kick ass AND argue like old lovers," said Power.Gal, rolling her eyes. "But when Kitten was knocked unconcious by those nasty Freakshow bastards we were fighting, Soul was right there, beside himself in grief."

Rumors that Happy Meals and full-body heals were withheld from the bantering couple during their last three missions have not been proven.

"No comment," said Power.Gal sternly. Floating into the air and flying away, she yelled back over her shoulder, "Let's not make this more than it really is."

Calls to Kitten With a Whip and the Power, Incorporated press corps have not been returned.
