Synopsis for "Special"

Supergirl and Power Boy go on patrol and sweep through a park beating up on a group of armored thugs. Their minds are hardly on work however, and when the job is finished the two share a passionate embrace. They retire back to Supergirl's place where Power Boy expects to spend some quality time together. Supergirl however plans on finding out who thugs in the park really were, and why they were sent to kill her.

Meanwhile, a mysterious woman conspires with Batgirl and the League of Assassins. She had hired the League to send the armored goons to run Supergirl through the ringer, fully aware that they would be quickly defeated. The League finds just the right carrot to dangle in front of Supergirl's face however, when they abduct the Outsider known as Boomer. They allow Boomer to place an emergency S.O.S. call to attract Supergirl's attention.

Supergirl gets a bead on the thugs who attacked her and learns of the League's involvement. She flies to the Batcave in Gotham City to get some further intelligence from Robin. After an awkward exchange between the two, she then flies off to deal with Cassandra directly.

Supergirl arrives at the League stronghold fully expecting a trap. Batgirl emerges from the shadows in full costume, sporting two glowing red swords. One of the sword swipes actually manages to slice through Supergirl's stomach. Suddenly, sharp crystal shards spontaneously grow from the wound. Similar shards spring from Supergirl's back spearing Batgirl through the ribs and shoulder. Taking advantage of the situation, Supergirl makes a hasty retreat.

She contacts Power Boy and gives him an update of the situation. Power Boy is levitating inside of his private room. Dozens of photographs of Supergirl are plastered all over the walls.
