However, she had to breathe to

History: (Brats Bizarre#1 (fb) - BTS) - At an unrevealed point in the future (after "millennia of genetic engineering"), a government experiment on autism spawned a new breed of heroes. Mr. Petra led the Hive to genetically engineer a number of superhumans, including Ocean Bacall, Dillinger, Key Largo, Blade & Key West, Pola, Bebe Siegel, Sezom, Tyrone and Valentino (Key West and Blade from from the same tube/batch). (Brats
Bizarre#3 (fb) - BTS) - As Ocean was being created, her
tube-sister
Kalu was identified as "normal," and was terminated by Petra.
However,
Kalu's mind/spirit survived, sometimes speaking to the others,
although
only Ocean could hear her (and the others thought Ocean was
crazy for
having an invisible/imaginary friend). (Brats Bizarre#1 (fb)) - As
a
young child at the Hive, Bebe was present as Dillinger was
punished --
via crushing his hand in a vice -- by the Reformer for allegedly
entering the girls' dormitory. (Brats Bizarre#1 (fb) - BTS) - At the Hive, Bebe hated sitting in and reading every night. (Brats Bizarre#1 (fb) - BTS)
- At
some
point, while Key West, Pola and Sezom formed the Superkind,
heroic
beings backing Petra's semi-fascist regime, Ocean, Blade,
Dillinger,
Key Largo, Bebe, Tyrone and Valentino fled from the Hive. They
lived a
hedonistic lifestyle, doing whatever they wanted, regardless of
how it
impacted others. (Brats Bizarre#1 (fb) - BTS) - Although aware the Brats would eventually beging to degenerate and die without the Ambrosia serum, Petra wished to force the Brats to repent their ways and rejoin the Hive, especially as he backed the Cellibate Party's presidential candidate, Dwayne White. To this end, he sent the Reformer to kill a couple of the Brats and to make it look like they had committed suicide over their lives of decadence. (Brats Bizarre#2 (fb) - BTS) - Knowing that if she died and was buried that her body would be dug up, taken back to the Hive and dissected, Bebe insisted to her teammates that if/when she died she be cremated. |
After Valentino mentioned being free from the Hive, Dillinger had a flashback to a traumatic experience at the Hive, and she decided to take Dillinger home (he apparently used his vibratory powers to levitate them, and she held his hand. After she put him to bed, she went downstairs and sat down, noting that after numerous parties, she was was looking forward to finishing her novel (she contrasted this to hating reading every night at the Hive). |

Breaking free, Bebe
fled and grabbed a knife. Unable to hear Kalu warning her to
run, Bebe
slashed the Reformer in the chest, noting that they were equally
matched due to their abilities to regenerate, but the Reformer
stabbed
her in the leg to drop her to the ground and then bound her a
rug. Bebe argued that she could heal
from any injury and that she might even enjoy being chopped to
pieces,
but he noted her need to breath to breathe and her vulnerability
to
carbon monoxide poisoning as he set her down by one of the
Brat's car's
exhaust pipes. After starting the car, the Reformer used Bebe'
lipstick
to write a suicide note on the back windshield: "What
we do is wrong, can't live with it. Sorry." (Brats Bizarre#1 (fb) - BTS) - After Bebe died, the Reformer removed the rug and ties to make it seem to be a suicide. (Brats Bizarre#1 - BTS) - As the rest of the Brats returned home, Kalu urged Ocean to rush everyone downstairs. (Brats Bizarre#1) - The rest
of
the Brats were shocked to find Bebe's dead body. Valentino
argued that
Bebe would never do this and Key Largo asked what reason she
coujld
have to kill herself, but Blade countered that she could see
that point
of view and considered that perhaps they had gone too far. (Brats Bizarre#2 - BTS) - Bebe had a funeral, attended by a priest, Dwayne White, Mr. Petra, the Superkind and others. White and Petra made a point of noting that she had committed suicide due to regret for her deviant ways. The Brats Bizarre showed up in
harlewuin, Bebe's favorite
design, as a show of respect, after which Blade incinerated both
Bebe
and her coffin, respecting her wishes that she be cremated.
Blade
revealed the reasons

The Brats
Bizarre made a point out of not being heroes, but they were not just
not heroic...they were pretty criminal: Running people off the road,
not paying for goods or services, ripping clothes off of women,
demolishing private property, provoking a fight with people otherwise
behaving peacefully and then killing them...
