Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 3 (comic story)
Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 3 was a the third chapter of the original Kate Five vs Symbiote arc of the webcomic Kate Five, written and drawn by James Bridger, alias Cyberkitten01. It was notable for incorporating the preexisting fictional city of Angel Falls and the characters of Ms. Blitzen, PhyreFrost and Hailey Storm, with the permission of their creators. The comic was intended to be as long as the other chapters in the series, but was ultimately left unfinished, with five out of the first six pages being completed and posted; thereafter Bridger skipped directly to Chapter 4. The gap was instead explored in a prose duology by another writer, Angel Falls: Vengeance Sought and Angel Falls: Vengeance

Plot
Ms. Blitzen is recovering in Angel Falls's world-famous medical centre, tended to by her friend and mentor PhyreFrost. Sir James Carey, Nexus Girl and Battle Angel, of Section P, visit her to get more details about Blitzen's nearly-fatal fight with the symbiote-possessed Kate Five. After she's done summarising the first phase of the fight, Sir James asks her if she can tell him anything more about the kiss Kate forced on her after dealing her a fatal blow, and a still-reeling Blitzen answers that she felt as though “something vital”, perhaps her soul, was being drawn out of her through the kiss, until it was interrupted by PhyreFrost's miraculous arrival. After the two relate the story of PhyreFrost's arrival and her fight against Kate, another one of the Guardians, Hailey Storm, arrives, and begins berating Sir Carey for not having told Ms. Blitzen what she was up against in more detail before sending the Guardians after Kate. PhyreFrost takes Sir Carey's side, instead blaming herself for what happened to her friend, insofar as it was her, not Carey, who told Ms. Blitzen to go confront Kate on the Boardwalk.
