The question is an obvious one, and one she knows he won't answer for his own project. Unfair, but she was willing to find a way to get to the answer, even if it meant going a different way.
"Some things I'm working on need precision." Without missing a beat, she adds, "Are you trackign a person or thing?"

"Both, essentially." His eyes trails her as she moves.
"What 'things' are you working on?"
Direct with his questions, vague with his answers.

A slight smirk this time as she catches how he plays the game, but doesn't call him out on it yet. It would be interesting to see how long he would keep it up. Her movements have a casual grace to them.
"Projectiles, for one. Backup, maybe. You did disarm the alarm before you broke in, right?"

"One of them." He nods.
"You're a super, what are your powers?" He was going off assumptions and while he didn't expect an answer on this one he didn't see the harm in attempting.

"One of them?" His answer earns him raised brows. "How long did the others go off?" Perhaps the game would be cut short; his answer was enough to cause her to pause halfway to reaching for her next prize.

"Ah-ah." He wags his finger.
"You didn't answer MY question."

Don't invent the game if you don't want to play it, Canary. She blinks and nods, conceding to the rules of the game.
"That's for you to figure out."

He nods.
"Okay."
Khan reaches out with his left hand, ripping it to the side where Canary would find herself being flung towards a glass counter case!

She lets out a startled yelp as he reaches out with his hand, finding herself tearing through the room at an alarming rate. She closed her eyes tight at the sight of the glass counter catching the edge of her vision, knowing it would cause property damage that would cost more than a year's salary for anyone working minimum wage. three was no resistance; Canary brought her arms up to protect her head, turning her body so it takes the blow. She can hear the sound of something popping as she reaches for one of the straps on her suit.
It looks like she might be trying to ascertain potential damage when a small round container about the size of her palm falls to the floor and rolls towards the super! It's a smoke bomb, set off once she lets go of it; smoke begins to fill the room.

Khan hears the sound of glass breaking. He only hears it, as smoke begins to obscure his vision. His left palm pushes out, the smoke reversing its direction and now blowing away from him. He keeps his hand out as he takes a step back as well, looking for the girl.

There's a sound of something falling to the floor in the area that he threw the smoke back towards! From the sounds of it, it's some form of electronic in its container, but whether it's from the mystery woman or just something falling after the counter broke remains unseen at the moment.
Canary tries to rely on her stealth to get to cover, remaining low to the ground and out of sight. If he couldn't find her, maybe he couldn't toss her again. That or she'd find out the hard way. She aims to circle around him towards the exit!

Khan narrows his eyes as he keeps looking but to no avail. He shoves his palm forward a second time, this time sending the entire smoke grenade whirling to the back of the room and out of his way. Khan turns so he can see both exits out of his peripheral as he begins to march towards Canary coincidentally, waving various things out of his way and flying towards the walls. Objects smash into other glass cases as Khan's current path makes his way towards her.

The sound of materials rattling warns Canary of the intended path of her pursuer. She pulls out another invention (Maneuver - Field 1), her grip firm as she reaches out to grab another device on the shelf standing between them. She can hear him coming closer, his footsteps firm and sure, over the racing of her heart. This thrill was part of why she did this, but it was also the danger that came with coming out at night, let alone posing as a super. Sooner or later, someone was going to notice.
Someone not as polite as Knife, for one, nor as interested in chaos as others she'd come across. Or was he, juts in a different way?
No, Canary, stop overthinking things. He's getting closer. Her breathing slows as she focuses, the smoke blown out of her way as she hurls the tech in the opposite direction, crashing into other electronics beyond sight as she pushes herself towards the end of the aisle. All she needs now is some sort of proof that he fell for the distraction.

Khan continues his path, hands down at his side palms up as the room is thrown around as if a tornado had gone through. He does turn his head towards the noise, but unless it was nearby an immediate exit he turns his head back the opposite way. Misdirection was a smart move which bought Canary a few free seconds, but Khan was all too familiar with the concept.
He coordinated all directions, after all.

The merchandise was thrown towards the exit Canary hadn't entered from! She probably didn't make it as far as she would have liked with the store's size, but when she can see him turn his head, Canary throws her invention at the mystery man!
Whatever it comes into contact with will be engulfed in a sticky web-type substance, be it her attacker or the space between them. With no way of knowing how his powers work other than the few hints she could gain, she's hoping to slow his movements or make it more difficult for him to reach for her.
Escape is still the name of the game, even if she's ducking and hiding at the moment. Landing against the case earlier = not fun.
