Men in Black and DC crossover

Kazami felt like a third wheel except one person was his prisoner and the other person was his boss, and the aforementioned prisoner was apparently the daughter of said boss. The prisoner was sitting on the gondola seats that ringed the wall and looking down at the aquarium park grounds below while his boss was sitting on the floor beside her just staring up at her in curiosity and wonder.
Kazami would have preferred the woman be handcuffed for when she regained her memories, but... one glance at her tall, buff father who could probably snap him in half like a twig was enough to prevent him from even voicing the suggestion. He just hoped that when she regained her memories, either she didn't try to attack them because her father was present or if she did that the man would be able to restrain his daughter.
He watched her nervously when the fireworks started, but nothing happened and he was left puzzled. Was Mr. Furuya wrong about the Ferris wheel? They were almost at the top, how much longer did they have to wait?
Suddenly, the woman saw something and bent over and started groaning. Kazami stood up and Kuroda moved to stand as well, putting his large hands on her shoulders.
"Emma, what's wrong?" Kazami had never heard his boss sound so worried or his voice so soft, then again he also never heard his boss talk to his daughter.
She didn't answer, but her hands flew to her head and her groans became louder, sounding more pained.
"What's going on?" Kazami asked, though not expecting a response. Should he call an ambulance? They were still at the top of the Ferris wheel though! It would take them a while to get down even if he did call, but he took his phone out of his pocket anyways to at least start calling his coworkers waiting at the bottom in order to have them stop the ride and lower them (and those children who apparently were also on the Ferris Wheel) to the bottom as fast as they could.
Kuroda had a haunted look in his one visible eye as he held the woman and repeatedly called her name. She let out a pained yell, then was suddenly still and silent, her eyes glassy and her mouth partially open and Kazami's blood ran cold at the sight of her and the look of haunted horror on his bosses face.
"What...?"
"Seizure," Kuroda said quietly he carefully laid his daughter flat on the ground of the gondola and removed his brown suit jacket to tuck around her head with a gentleness that one wouldn't expect from his tall muscular frame.
"My wife had them when she was alive. I had hoped that neither of our children would be afflicted by the same condition that eventually claimed her life." Kazami had no clue how he was supposed to react to that news and he couldn't imagine how his boss was feeling right now. Woke up from a ten year coma and couldn't find his kids, then found his daughter who was a part of a criminal organization, then found out said daughter had amnesia and didn't even remember him and probably had children of her own with no sign of her brother nearby, and now said daughter had a seizure just like her mother apparently used to. Seizures which had taken his bosses wife from him and their children were now afflicting his newly refound daughter.
Kuroda sat on the floor next to her and kept one of his hands on her wrist, checking her pulse. About fourteen seconds later, the woman seemed to come back to herself and was breathing heavily like she'd run a marathon.
"Emma, sweetie, are you alright?" Kuroda asked softly, much softer than anyone thought his deep voice could be. Her eyes shot open and locked on his, widening with shock and amazement as she stared up at him.
"Papa?" It was quiet, amazed, and hopeful. Then her face suddenly contorted in a way that obviously wasn't good.
"NO!" A desperate cry, one that had shivers going down Kazami's spine as he stood nearby with phone still in hand just in case.
From the ground the woman, Emma, rolled backward onto her feet, away from her father, and Kazami suddenly felt his legs be kicked out from under him. He hit the floor, and she clocked him hard on the head before he had the chance to get his bearings. He fell unconscious instantly and knew no more.
Kuroda stared in shock as his daughter rolled to her feet and swept Kazami's legs out from under him then clocked him in the head with her elbow. The younger man was unconscious instantly and it was as Emma was picking up his dropped cellphone that Kuroda came to his senses.
"Emma Lucy, what in the world has gotten into you, young lady?" Kuroda demanded as he rose to his feet, towering over her and he paused at the look of fear in her eyes.
"Papa, get this phone away from me quickly!" She exclaimed with wide eyes as her hand unlocked the phone and she was already pulling up the phone to dial a number.
"My body's under the influence of a mind control drug and I'm about to call the very person who drugged me!" Emma said and Kuroda wondered briefly if his daughter had hit her head harder than he thought during the crash or if the seizure had affected her worse than he thought but immediately dove to try and take the phone from her when it started ringing anyways.
"I can't control my body papa. I…I only regained control of my mind and mouth not the rest of my body. I'm so sorry." Emma said as she did her best to evade her father while the phone rang before someone answered and it was thankfully on speaker phone from the struggle.
"I swear to god if this is a telemarketer then someone is getting shot. I'm not in the mood for this." A womans voice answered annoyed and Emma's eyes flashed with rage.
"You traitorous dirty sna-"
"Emma? Emma is that you? Oh thank god. Are you okay? Where are you?" The womans voice interrupted Emma's insults and instead seemed happy to hear from her.
"Why do you care?! You're the one who used that damn serum on me and-"
"Emma sweetie no. No it wasn't me. There's a second Vermouth around. I'm the one who trained you, Sharon remember? The one who drugged you was the other Vermouth." The womans voice was relieved and understanding and Emma scowled.
"How do you think I'm going to buy that?! Why would I have called you instead of this supposed 'other' Vermouth while under the drugs effects then?!" Emma scowled darkly while her father was just staring at her now and tense as he waited to see what would happen next, more than ready to grab her and just pick her up in a bear hug if he had to.
"If I was the one who drugged you then wouldn't I be telling you to leave the Gondola and come find me? That's not what I want you to do at all. Listen when the other Vermouth drugged you and told you to do that she probably told you to call her when you were done or free but didn't give you another number to call her by so you called my number, the number of my personal phone. The number I gave you back when I was training you." Sharon said and her voice was filled with understanding and sympathy but also firm.
"Your…personal number?" Emma asked surprised, she had never considered that Vermouth had given her the older womans personal cellphone number back when she had been training with the woman.
"That's right. You called my personal cellphone number, not the number the fake somehow has. I'm the real Sharon Vineyard, although Vineyard is my maiden name and not my technical name since I was never divorced from my husband despite what happened that I think the fake did some-"
"You're rambling grandma!" Another voice, a young boys voice that sounded slightly familiar and it seemed her dad knew if the way he stared at the phone was any indication, interrupted Vermouth and Emma couldn't help but mouth the word 'grandma' to herself.
"Thanks Shin-chan. Listen Emma. The fake, she's going to want you dead. She will do anything to make sure you die before you get back to the MiB and can expose the fake that there's a fake Vermouth running around. I, on the other hand, don't want you dead. You're similar to a second daughter to me, or honestly probably closer to a granddaughter given your age and how old my daughter should be if I hadn't had her frozen in time for about a decade, but the point is the same. I care about you sweetie and I want you back home to your fiance, twin, and twin children safe and sound but that's not what the fake wants and she won't stop until you're dead and can't expose her or her serum." Vermouth, Sharon, said and her voice was caring and soft and honestly it did remind Emma of her mother.
"Which means we're going to have to make her think you're dead…and given the bombs that are all around the Ferris Wheel and axel then we'll have an easier time of it." Sharon said grimly and Emma's eyes widened as did Kurodas. Bombs?!
"Shin-chan and I managed to disarm a few of them but there are a lot, there's evidence of someone else helping us disarm them but I don't know who yet and there's far too many of them for just us to take care of before the rescue squad gets here and she detonates them. So we'll be able to hopefully use them to our advantage." Sharon said and that's when there was the voice of the little boy again.
"I think I have a plan. Would you care to listen?" The boy asked through the phone and Kuroda chuckled a bit.
"Mouri's bag of wisdom is in this too? Very well then boy let's hear your idea." Kuroda said and the line was quite for a minute.
"Since when was Commissioner Kuroda in this mess?" The boy asked thrown a bit.
"Ever since my daughter was drugged and ended up causing a mess on Rainbow Bridge. Now what's your idea boya?" Kuroda asked and he heard Sharon and the boy snort slightly.
"Of course. God this whole mess is becoming more like a movie or a story than real life with the way things are happening." Sharon said sounding humorless but still amused.
"You're telling me. Anyways…here's the plan, Grandma can you disguise yourself as Curacao?" The boy asked and Emma's eyes widened at that. He knew her codename?! Was he aware of the MiB then!?
"With ease."
"Good then here's the plan."
