Start from the beginning
                                        

"Of the underground market?" Cecile asked as they walked into the cortex.

"Oh, I'm guessing this chick has a criminal record." Felicity asked.

"Ooh a bad girl." Clarity grinned. "I like bad girls..."

"You wouldn't like this one." Killer Frost denied.

"Yeah, she's been linked to the meta-human black market selling stolen technology,
but we've never been able to nail her down." Cecile complained.

"And how do you know her?" Iris demanded.

"Through Caitlin." Killer Frost answered. "Six months ago, Caitlin thought she had everything under control."

"Can't keep a good bad side down for long, am I right?" Felicity asked.

"Wrong!" Clarity chimed a spray of sparks flying through the air. "I can!"

"Try telling me that when your not high, baby blue." Killer Frost denied, "She felt me becoming much stronger. She found out that Amunet had some tech that would let her stay in charge. She got desperate, so she decided to use it. But it came with a price tag." Killer Frost explained.

"Which... which was?" Felicity prodded her, hands on her hips.

"Being her muscle." Killer Frost replied.

"Mm," Clarity tapped her chin. "Tech that's not a damper...?" Clarity giggled to herself watching her powers crackling in her hand. "Caitlin's a smarty pants person."

"Did you kill anyone?"

"Oh! I did! I killed people! Lots and lots and lots of people.." Clarity swung her legs. "I'm ready for my cuffs your honor." She held out her hands lightning taking the shape of hand cuffs on her wrist. "Book me!"

"You lost control when you drugged on mystical juice that's different, Clarity." Felicity protested.

"Nuh uh. Dead's dead." Clarity protested. "You can't get more dead than dead." 

"Some people lost their fingers and their toes, but... no, no one died." Killer Frost told Cecile. "Her kill count's way higher than mine. I'd say respect if it were purposeful."

"And how are you here now?" Iris asked her.

"While Caitlin sleeps, I am awake." Killer Frost answered her.

"Oh, my God!" Felicity realized. "You're like The Incredible Hulk! That's..." Felicity paused as Killer Frost gave her a look. "I said that with too much chutzpah. Dialing it back."

"You make a pretty Hyde." Clarity smiled at Killer Frost.

"Look, what are Amunet's plans for The Weeper?" Iris asked Killer Frost.

"Not my problem." Killer Frost replied with a little smirk. "I'm too pretty to care."

"Look, he was on that bus. We helped create him. We need to save him." Iris insisted.

"No. I need to leave and escape Amunet." Killer Frost denied.

"And you're just gonna run away?" Cecile demanded.

"Boo! Quitter!" Clarity threw some sparks up in. The air. "Stay and fight! With me!" Clarity opened up her arms.

"Listen, there's a reason the CCPD has not caught her. And that you idiots just realized there's a major crime lord living under your noses for the past three years. She's too powerful. We can't stop her."

"We can too." Clarity lifted up a lamp and started playing around with it with her powers.

"Your too high to fight." Killer Frost denied. "We can't win."
