It was her first night back as Batgirl. Her first night back in the cape and cowl. Needless to say, she was nervous maybe even scared a little. What if something went wrong? What if she ended back in the chair? But a wise man once said, "You can't live in fear." She had to get back on the horse sort of speak. She had to get back in the ring.
With her grappling hook in hand Batgirl traveled from one rooftop to the next searching for anything that might be out of whack. Any crime that needed busting. She was rusty, sure. But she still knew how to do it. Batgirl came up on a ledge and with a pair of binoculars and began to search the area for any suspicious activity.

Batgirl would see a woman in a black leather cat suit and goggles climbing up to the top floor of an apartment complex and standing outside the window. The Cat AKA Catwoman AKA Selina Kyle brought her gloved claws to the window and carved a hole big enough to allow her arm to go through and unlock the window in question to open it for her to enter.
Once inside she walked on her tippy toes towards a safe in the living room. She cracked the lock and opened it to reveal ten solid gold coins inside. Selina smiled and grabbed her bag. Sticking the gold coins inside the bag and then swinging it on her hip before closing the safe and turning back around to escape from the fire exit.

Batgirl would already be crouched in the window still staring at Selina Kyle as she was about to be on her way out. Thanks to her grapple gun getting her there in a heartbeat. She was all too familiar with Selina Kyle's AKA Catwoman's antics and for whatever reason Bruce wasn't entirely willing to put her away where she belonged.
"What are you doing, Selina?"

Selina came to a halt in her place and looked over to Batgirl with a grin curling her lips. She hadn't expected to see Batgirl here as she has been MIA for over three years. If anything, she thought Bruce would intercept her and they'd have a nice back and forth before repressed emotions came out, but it looked like she was going to have to play a different game here.
"Batgirl. I thought you were dead."
It was the obvious thought when a hero vanished without a trace. Maybe nobody should assume anything until a body was found. Bruce never revealed the identities of those who worked with him to her. She just knew they were vast and mysterious and of course broody.

"That seems to be the popular opinion."
It wasn't the first time she was told that during her patrol of the city. Everyone in Gotham thought she had died at the hands of the Joker. And some of them didn't know how close to the truth that was. Barbara entered into the apartment room and approached Selina Kyle seeing the bag in her hands.
"Looking to make a quick dollar? Put whatever you stole back and leave and I'll forget I saw you here."
This would be her only warning.

Selina only smiled an innocent looking smile in the direction of Batgirl as she gave her one chance to change her dirty ways or go to jail.
"Who said I stole anything? What's in the bag is mine. You never saw me steal."
Selina walked around Batgirl and headed for the window. She of course expected Batgirl to stop her, but until she did, she would crouch down in the window still and look back to where Batgirl was standing.
"How is tall dark and brooding doing these days anyway? Does he miss me?"
