Chapter 4: Initiation

Author note: Hey all! I have been able to upload quite fast and efficiently over the past week but that may not be the case later. The basic storyline is all mapped out but I really want to just add some quick stories in between chapters and little flashbacks. I promise you that I will try and get these chapters typed quickly but some chapters are longer than others obviously. Please follow the story if you can because that would show me that you like what you are seeing and would give me a morale boost. Anyway… on to the story!

The Slasher and Mindy walked out of the room.

"High Five!" shouted The Slasher

Mindy was beginning to like this guy. Not the way she grew attached to Dave but he seemed nice enough without being classified as a nice guy. Mindy gave the high five.

"Can I now know anything about my guardian angel now that I'm in?"

"Sorry, but you need to pass initiation. If you want to meet him I can organize you to meet him and our team tonight. If you pass initiation, that means survive, then you are officially sworn in."

"Ugh." Mindy groaned. "What can I do for the rest of today?"

"Train or meet up with your new group."

"The high flyers?"

"I guess. My girlfriend used to be on their team but left to join another team."

"Any advice."

"Be careful on what you say because they can be very sensitive."

"What do you suggest?"

"Come on. We can go get your stuff from the safe house."

The two superheroes walked out of the entrance room (The crap one) and got into a car. The drive was mostly quiet. Superheroes had been outlawed (Temporarily) and so The Slasher was in civilian clothes. He was big and muscly without it being too obvious.

"What's the mission?" Mindy asked.

"I believe your taking out a brothel. Not a public one but an underground one. It is the worst. They import anyone they can get their hands on. And as soon as they find you 'not hot' anymore, they axe your fucking head off. And they use children. Can you fucking believe that?"

"So glad I'm going on this one."

"You need your stuff first."

They walked into the safe house as Mindy put in the code. As they walked in The Slasher was amazed. He ran around the room trying everything. Just like a 5 year old. Mindy went to a closet and grabbed another Hit-girl costume, another pair of swords, 1 set of nunchuku (nunchucks) and a last resort.

"Hurry up!" Mindy called to The Slasher.

"Would you mind?" he said gesturing to a handgun. "Mine is fucked"

"Yeah, whatever."

They walked back into the car and drove back to base.

That night…

Mindy walked into the same room that the council decided if she would go for initiation.

"Oh great, super slut is back." It was evident that this was the same girl from the change rooms. The rest of the team, which consisted of 5 people, were standing around a table.

"Whatever." Hit-girls reply was.

"Memorize the plan." The obvious leader told her.

Hit-girl knew this was not personal; her narkiness, but it was obviously was important to her, just like the D'Amico assassination.

They all moved out once Hit-girl recited the plan back to them.

Upon arriving at the brothel Mindy was reminded of her task. She and Kabar (She was the leader and was Chinese) were taking the people out on the bottom floor. The others were liberating the girls and taking down reinforcements.

"Lethal force is authorized" Kabar was telling her. "If I see one person left alive then I will vouch against letting you in"

"Then consider them dead"

They kicked open the door and both ran in at the same time. An old man was at the counter handing money over. Kabar pulled a gun and shot him in the head.

"Try and use knives. This is personal." Kabar responded after putting her gun away. She then pulled two kabars out (A type of attack knife) and charged at the men and women on the left. Hit-girl was already holding her swords and ran to the right. Behind a table leapt up a guy with a gun. Hit-girl cut his hand off and then shoved the sword (Double ended at this point) in his eye. Blood spurted everywhere. Another big man tried to rugby tackle her but earned a sword in the gut. She then proceeded to cut his guts out. The other skinny man behind him shot but hit his friend. Hit-girl let go out of the sword and the big one collapsed on to the sword and it came out the other end. A throwing knife into the head later the skinny man fell to the floor.

The last guy ran up the stairs and Hit-girl gave chase. She pulled her gun and shot his legs. "Stick around!" she yelled then shot him in the head. Kabar ran up the stairs and smiled at the sight of him dead. She kicked a door in. A man was raping a 14-year-old Ethiopian girl. Kabar walked in and threw him off her. She just sat in the corner. And watched with anticipation.

Hit-girl ran up and down the rooms in the corridor killing all the people raping the girls and boys. Yes boys. Women were boys. The rest of the superheroes ran down from the third floor and pointed towards the first floor. Hit-girl regrouped with them. They started discussing the mission. The mean girl looked at Hit-girl and said, "What the fuck does HG stand for!"

"Hit-girl. Who the fuck are you!"

"I am Stabby. I stab sluts."

"Well you just missed a whole bunch of them"

The others jaws dropped. Kabar was starring at Hit-girl.

She ran at Hit-girl and punched her in the face. Hit-girl took it knowing what she said was wrong on so many levels.

"You want to know what I was doing in that room?"

Hit-girl stared at the ground.

"I was torturing a past rapper. I used to be fucked here by fucking pedophiles that thought it appropriate to do that to girls and boys. I escaped with my boyfriend. That man fucked me the night I escaped."

Hit-girl nodded. "He got what he deserved, I assume?"

Kabar smiled. "Yeah. Thanks for covering my back." She hugged Hit-girl but was crying as she did it. "I'm sorry. My mood swings are bad."

"I got mine" Hit-girl smiled

A man ran down with a machine gun and pointed it at the girls. "Die bitches!" he screamed.

A bullet flew into his head. Then multiple bullets. Kabar turned and saw a boy standing in the doorway with a gun pointed at the now dead man.

"What business do you have interfering with my mission?" Kabar asked him

"Just protecting my person… I have to protect." He said in a cool way. He stepped out into the room and revealed himself.

"So… you ready to join us yet?" He asked

Hit-girl was stunned. 2 years. It was 2 years since he walked out of her life. Not like that but they stopped talking. He was her guardian angel all along.

Flashbolt.

His name was Flashbolt.
