How about another peek into Power Surge for some Chilling Character Behaviour...the moment Aubrey decides to use her new powers to help someone.
Running back toward the alley, Aubrey tugged the balaclava over her head, pulled her hoodie over her head, she yanked on the strings to tighten it a bit over her face and keep it in place.
There wasn’t a single light in the narrow alleyway, only the tiniest sliver of moonshine made it down between the buildings. She slowed as her eyes stared to adjust to the dark and listened. A muffled scream of horror and a scrabbling sound drew her attention and she started running again. Panic and fear grew at a compounding speed in her chest, clawing at her neck. This was crazy, but she couldn’t let that woman get hurt.
On the other side of a dumpster, she caught the man kneeling on the woman’s back, a knife held just in front of his victim’s face. His other hand yanked at her shirt.
Fury blazed through Aubrey. Rushing forward, she grabbed the man by the hair, yanking him to the side so he toppled off the woman.
“What the f***!” He turned and glared at her, bringing the knife up. “You want to take that ****’s place. Fine with me.”
