DARK ANGEL
Evil Gets A Delivery
Max was seated on the couch, talking with Original Cindy and Sketchy. Normal walks over to the trio, package in hand, "C'mon, people, get moving. The mail is not going to deliver itself." He tosses the package to Original Cindy, "$25 C.O.D. Now get moving." He turns and heads back to his counter.
Out of curiosity, Max and Sketchy checked the address. Max's eyes got wide and she snatched the package, "Mind if I deliver this one?" Normal answers from his counter, "Just get it delivered!!"
Sketchy and Cindy shrugged and went back to the couch. Max left and made her way to a payphone. She dialed Logan's number and waited while it rang.
Logan wheeled his way to the phone in his office, "Cale here." She spoke, "Big trouble, Logan. Can I buzz over?" He hadn't expected her to be calling now. He answered, "Sure, no problem." They both hang up and Max heads to Logan's.
In no time at all, Max arrived at Logan's. She let herself in, "Logan?"
"Back here!" He answered back. She made her way toward the voice and smiled when she saw him. "What's the trouble?" He asked.
She handed him the package, "This."
"I didn't order anything." He states, taking the package. He scans the address, his expression changes and he looks up at her.
"This goes to Lydecker. It'll be walking blind into a lions den."
She takes the package back, "I have to go." He stops her, "Max. I can get someone better armed to do it." She nodded, "No!"
"Then be careful." He called out to her as she left.
Max stopped in front of the building. Two guards walked over to her. She showed some I.D. and they let her in. Max carefully made her way to Lydecker's office, keeping her senses alert. She was scared, but hid it well.
Lydecker was on the phone when she entered his office. He saw her and hung up. He looked at her strangely, "Can I help you?"
She slowly hands him the package and was about to ask for the payment, when a guard walked in with a child. Lydecker came around to the front of his desk, near the child. He motioned for the child to sit in a chair, kitty-corner to his desk. As the child walked by, Max saw the barcode. Her heart sunk at the thought of him creating more soldiers. She made a point to come back to get this child out of his grasp.
Lydecker noticed Max's uneasiness and gleamed to himself. "Did you need something?" His question startled her.
"$25." He looked at her confusingly. "For the package." She added.
He came over and handed her the money. "Thanks." She said. As she turned to leave, she heard him talking to the girl. She looked back and saw the girl perform a series of hand signals. The same signals that were taught to her and the others. Max couldn't take it. She stormed out of there as fast as she could.
Once Max left, the girl sighed and smiled at Lydecker. "It's her," Lydecker gleamed as the girl reached and ripped off the barcode sticker. Lydecker hugged the girl and handed her a 10. She smiled and took it, "Thanks, Donald!"
