Men in Black and DC crossover

(A/N: I own nothing read last chapter and read Velgamidragon's We Are the Men in Black.)
Vermouth had immediately gone to Tropical Land after the text from her grandson and was currently leaning against the barrier near Curacao as soon as she spotted the woman following some kids around, some of her grandsons cute little friends none the less, without a care in the world as if her fiance didn't have the entire organization out looking for her.
"What are you doing? Let's go back." Vermouth said quietly but firmly as she didn't look at Curacao but heard a small confused noise from the woman before Vermouth began walking off.
"Miss what are you doing? We're going to leave you behind!" One of the kids called out.
"Sorry I thought someone was talking to me." Curacao said and Vermouth stopped as she turned slightly to stare shocked at the silver haired woman. There was no way Curacao would have ignored her if she had noticed who it was speaking to her and Curacao definitely knew her voice well enough to recognize it immediately, the girl being slightly hostile but mostly frosty after that confusing and infuriating thing about her brother sleeping and breaking up with the older woman and yet Curacao had still been polite and mostly just neutral to Vermouth since the woman had trained her and taken her under her wing.
"Huh? Did you meet someone you know?" One of the kids asked as Curacao ran up the ramp towards them but shook her head.
"No I think it was just a misunderstanding." Curacao said and Vermouth was bewildered. Curacao didn't recognize her? How was that possible? The girl should have at least reacted somehow to Vermouth even if it was only tensing or glaring at her.
Vermouth resolved to keep an eye on the girl until she knew for sure what was going on at the moment and then she'd contact Gin and Rum and tell them where the beloved silver haired maniac driver was. Turning slightly Vermouths' eyes widened a bit before quickly turning the other way and walking off casually.
She would talk with her grandson later but she didn't want to deal with Shiho at the moment, and definitely not clue the girl in on the fact that Shinichi was the grandson of someone who apparently 'hated' her. She had thought that Sherry would recognize Gin's precious twin sister but if she did then why hadn't she called it in already?
And Curacao definitely didn't recognized Sherry or else there was no way the little scientist would get away unsmothered and unhugged by the silver haired woman.
Vermouth walked away but stayed close by, more than close enough to watch the biggest of the group wave at the shrunken Sherry and Shinichi and call for their attention as he leaned on the railing.
Her inner mother and grandmother freaked at him doing such a thing and both of the shrunken teens apparently agreed with her sentiment.
"Genta that's dangerous!"
"Get off the railing!"
The two's cries were for naught however as the big boys', Genta according to her grandson, hand slipped and he went tumbling over the railing and barely grabbed onto the small ledge to keep from going splat on the ground. Curacao immediately hopped over the railing to try and help but Vermouth knew that Curacao didn't have the arm strength to pull the big kid up and even if she did then there was nothing for her to brace against and she didn't have enough room on that tiny ledge.
Vermouth couldn't help but start speed walking over to try and help somehow, mentally going over what she had on hand and saw nearby to try and find a way to save the boy who was a friend of her grandson. She spotted the worried Sherry and the calculating look in her grandsons eyes and knew he was thinking of anything to try and save his friend.
Curacao seemed to think of something however and just as Genta's fingers slipped she jumped over towards the slope area nearby and slid down, Vermouth spotting her plan immediately.
Everyone, even Vermouth, was surprised or impressed to see the silver haired woman sliding down the slope like a skateboarder while wearing a business suit and heels until with amazing timing and leg strength Curacao launched herself at the falling Genta.
Vermouth breathed a sigh of relief at seeing Curacao slam into Genta and hold him close as they both hit the unforgiving hard support structure several times in a roll before they came into a downward sliding part and slid to the ground. Curacao was still holding onto Genta who was apparently not responding.
"Genta! Are you alright!?" Shinichi, her little Shin-chan, called as he, Sherry, and two park attendants ran over. Vermouth saw the way Curacao's eyes flickered over to them in alarm for a moment before she relaxed on them and turned back to Genta.
She yelled for him to respond and Vermouth noticed how Sherry stopped and had a stunned look on her face and wisely backed away a step or two. It seems that if Sherry didn't know who Curacao was before then she probably had a good idea of the womans identity now.
Thankfully the boy was alright and everyone was taken to the medical tent to be checked over by medics just in case. Vermouth followed at a distance and was relieved to hear that the kids were alright enough to still think about riding the Ferris Wheel and want to take Curacao along.
Uh Oh.
Quickly grabbing her phone and pulling up the website for the amusement park, Vermouth pulled up the Ferris Wheel and their new installation. Colored lights at the bottom.
Colored lights that were in five certain colors.
If she had anything assigned to those colors right now then Curacao was going to have the mother of all headaches in the middle of the ride. Not good.
Spotting her grandson and his friends taking a break on a bench while Sherry and her grandson talked Vermouth stayed close to them but out of Sherry's sight as she listened in. So Sherry was telling Shinichi about Rum's rumors, which was kind of funny because all three rumors of his appearance matched Gin and had more than a few new agents confused and wary of thinking the silver haired man being the second in command.
Hearing Sherry try to talk him out of helping Curacao get her memories back while Curacao and the other three kids wandered off, Vermouth winced. She was going about it the entirely wrong way and if she was right then they'd notice the other kids and the womans disappearance right about-
"DOC!" Yep there they went. She followed close enough to listen in as the two shrunken teens ran off towards the Ferris Wheel, but not close enough to draw Sherry's attention.

Vermouth swore as she dialed Gin's number after Curacao was taken off towards the hospital by an ambulance. A seizure it seemed like. She knew what that would mean for Gin and Curacao. She knew about their mother, Curacao had told her once that her mother had seizures and died of one when the twins were only ten.
"Did you find and retrieve Curacao?" Gin answered before the first ring was even finished and Vermouth winced.
"I tried to but there are some circumstances that prevented that." Vermouth said and she heard the way Gin growled in his throat at that.
"Like what?"
"She was acting strange and it took me a little while to find out why. She has amnesia." Vermouth said and she could almost feel the disbelief from Gin's side of the phone. The woman with the perfect memory was the one who had amnesia.
"Where is she now?"
"Taken into police custody and moved to their hospital." Vermouth replied immediately.
"So the police have gotten involved as well." Gin muttered not sounding pleased and she wasn't sure he even was talking to her at that part.
"There's something else though. It seems she had a seizure on the Ferris Wheel." Vermouth said and winced slightly.
"A seizure? Are you sure?!" He demanded his voice a lot more intent than he probably meant it to be.
"Yes." She wouldn't lie about this. She knew about their family history of seizures after all. Although he might not be aware of her knowing of it.
"I see. Tell Rum if you hadn't already."
He hung up without letting her reply or say anything else like how she had been apparently taken in by the Detective Boys. But that was fine.
She immediately dialed another number.
"Rum. I've found her but she has amnesia and is currently in the police hospital."
