The Battle
Cajun Strong Man
After setting the strategy and positioning the assets, it was time for the battle.
A few hours after we got in, I got a message from Armstrong International that there was another private jet there. Before I went out to battle I went there to see what was up. When I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that father had come. He said that he had wanted to help so I took him home and sat him at the Cat Computer. I said, " I want you to monitor everything from here." I gave him the lowdown on the plan and he took the the seat at the Cat Computer after I got on the radio and told everyone the he would be monitoring things.
I then got dressed and headed out to the Ninth Ward . I found Armando sitting on top of a building watching a bank. I asked him what was up. He said, "It appears that Miss Thorne has said that she wants this bank robbed. This may be the break that we need. I think that there is possibility that we can find out where she is from one of them." I asked, "Why are we waiting?" He said, "For some reason they have not made their move yet."
Just then an armored car pulled up and fifty men game out. I thought to myself that this was the reason. As the got out and started to prepare, Armando and I swung around the back of the building to better surprise them. I climbed the building and peeked into the sky light and saw that there were aboubt fifty people in there and there and that included the managers and tellers. I went back to Armand and told him to to take out the guys at the Armored car and I would help the people inside the bank. I went to the drive through window and asked if the teller inside was 'OK' she said that she was. She had locked herself into the this room and was not going to let them in no matter what. It was a smart move because there was not much money there and they forgot all about her. I was at the first window and I asked her if she would open the door that people put their money and checks into. She asked why. I said, one of my friends was Ray Palmer and he found way to shrink people and that was how I was going to get into the building. She opened it and I shrunk myself and then the outside door closed and the inner one opened and she grabbed me and put me on the floor. I then enlarged myself and quietly opened the door which she had locked.
As I walked out, the first place I went was the vault. I went and said, "You are not going to get away with your ill gotten gains." Then groused at me, "That is what you think." There were about ten robbers there and I made quick work of them. I then went into the front part of the bank and with the help of Armando stopped them from taking the money, bearer bonds, and other funds from the bank.
I asked, "El Dorado, is there a thug that is not knocked out?' He took me outside ans showed me a person that was tied to on of the columns. I reached down to my left hip grabbed my Lasso. I rapped it around him and started the questioning.
I queried him, "Where is your boss?" He said, " We are supposed to met her in Destrehan." I then said, "And.." He answered, " I don't know." I then said, "You don't know or you won't say?" He got agitated and answered shortly, " Look I do not know what was to happen next because she had said that she was going to tell us when we got there."
we brought out the rest of the robbers, and asked them if they wanted to make a deal.
The leader said, " Here is the deal, if you take us to the place where you are supposed to meet your boss, I will have someone talk to the authorities and see if it is at all possible to get you a much lesser sentence." "That is your reprieve, if after you get out and do another crime, there will be no quarter held. Do you understand?" The leader said, "Yes."
I got in touch with dad and told him my plan and told him to relay the message to mom and Chief Boudreaux.
We got into the back then allowed them to put some the money in, and then they got in. I had Armando turn us invisible with his necklace.
As they unloaded the armored car and we heard them tell Miss Thorne that they could not get all of the money because we showed up. I heard her say that it was fine because this was one of many diversions. Then I heard her on the phone and she asked if her plane was ready.
I put my had to my ear and said, "Dad can you tell mom to head to the Armstrong International and stop a plane from taking off?" He said "Yes."
Bruce said "Diana," Diana answered "What." Bruce said " Can you please head to the airport, there is a plane there. Whatever happens, you are not to let it get off of the ground."
Mom then transported to the watchtower and went into on of the many labs that dad had set up. She knew what she wanted and she picked up a small, hand sized, box-looking device. It so happened to be a mini-EMP generator. She headed to the tower and asked, "Are there any planes that have requested emergency takeoff?" Tower Manager, "Yes there is." He showed her which one it was and told her which hanger it was in. She sneaked in and took out the EMP box, aimed it at the airplane, pressed the button on the top of it. It hummed a bit, then it shut off.
She then went outside of the hanger and touched her ear and said, " Bruce, it is done." Dad said, "Fine Diana, please stay there and wait."
Meanwhile, back at the warehouse in Destrehan there was a big fight going on. They kept calling out thugs to slow us down. Thorne found her way into the one thing that she though she was safe. I heard a beeping in my ear. I touched it and said, "Dad, what is is?' He said. "Let them go." I asked, "Why?" He then said, "They think that they are going to the airport to get away, but you mom is on the scene and says that she has things well in hand." I responded, "O.K." I turned to Armando and said "We have our orders, we are to let them go." He raised his eyebrow as if he wanted ask a question or to argue but he kept his mouth shut.
I put my hand up to my ear and said, "J'urre, site to site teleport for two, center on Wonder Woman."
with in ten seconds we were standing next to mother on one side of the hanger waiting for Miss Thorne to show up. I had Armando go to the tower and ask to be able to talk straight to the pilot. They had the pilot set it up for for him to be able to talk to directly to the cabin. The plan was to have the pilots act like everything was normal. They started to refuse then I said, "What ever she is paying you, I will double it." They looked at each other and then agreed. So we went back to our hiding place and waited.
We saw the limo roll into the hanger and quietly followed it into the hanger. We found a hiding place behind some crates and we turned ou communicators on and waited for the signal. Armando then said, "Miss. Thorne, give yourself up, you are going nowhere." I could almost read her thoughts and knew that she was thinking 'that is what you think.' Mom and I stepped out from our hiding spot and in front of the plane. We knew that there was no way that the pane was going to move because it had been affected by and EMP. Mom flew up and ripped the door off a I threw my whip and climbed up as well. It did not take us long to go through the thugs and then we arrested her.
By the time that we disembarked, Chief Boudreaux was there and he took her away. With all of the information that had been recovered from her many hideouts, Rachel Thorne was put away for a long time.
Maybe...
