Note: Here it is the next update. I got a question a little while ago about Dinah's powers so here it goes. One of her original powers is basically touch telepathy, she grabs their hand and is transported into their mind, in my story her power has grown so that it's much more potent, and basically if her skin touches another human's skin her power works. Her other power is telekinesis, which has also expanded in my story. In the first chapter, Dinah is injected with a serum that we later learn makes it painful to use her powers. So basically any physical contact with another person, unless she's covered with clothing will hurt, and every time her telekinesis is used it'll hurt. I hope that answers your question, and if not let me know and I'll try again.

Disclaimer: Not mine; although they should be cause then they'd have a lot of fun adventures.

It had been two and a half weeks since the birds took refuge in the warehouse, since the clock tower had been blown to pieces, since Dinah had died right before their eyes, and since they began their plan while Dinah recuperated; finally they felt ready to do what was necessary. All these past days had been filled with planning, making ones, erasing others and making newer ones. Tek was their main source of information; it was through him that they managed to get a fairly good idea of where Saio's office was, along with the best times to sneak in. All of the buildings security measures had been documented, and already they had found ways around each and every one of them. They also had several other routes that could be taken in case some unfortunate incident occurred on their main route.

From what they could tell Saio's office was somewhere in the middle of the building, either on floor nine, or floor ten; Dinah remembered Saio once telling her after she joined the youkai, that he didn't like being on either the top or bottom because attacks could easily come from either of the two positions. The plan was simple, enter through the underground tunnel, capture Saio, go back down to the storage area and plant their own bomb that was radio controlled, and once they were finally a safe distance away activate it. That would at the very least set them back, all the weapons would be destroyed, and Saio would be going into a much higher security prison.

"You ready to do this Hel?" Dinah asked. Right now they were both getting their gear together for the trip; there wasn't very much a few flash grenades, and smoke bombs, handcuffs, each had a tazzer, and Helena was carrying their bomb and detonator provided by Tek.

"I'm not the one who got a glass shard through my leg, the real question is are you okay?"

"You worry too much about that, I'm fine now, and I'll be more than capable of making it through this mission." Dinah assured.

"Being your girlfriend gives me the right to worry." Helena stated seriously. "I don't want to see you get hurt like you did last time. After this though, we're going to take a long, nice and relaxing vacation."

"Yeah, where to?" Dinah smiled as she adjusted her gloves.

"Anywhere we want. Hell, we'll even take Barbara with us; she needs some place to stay while the clock tower gets rebuilt."

"Don't remind me about that, Barbara'll have a fit when everything she lost finally sinks in." Dinah joked.

"Well she'll just have to find a way to relax on the beach, in the sun, with a nice cool beer in hand."

"Think she can do it?" Dinah questioned.

"Nope." Came Helena's answer causing Dinah to laugh.

"What are you two laughing about?" Barbara inquired.

"Nothing much." Dinah replied innocently.

Barbara sighed and decided that it would be best to simply drop it, "It's time to get serious, you guys leave in just under an hour so check all the equipment. This is a big deal, we need to bring the Kaze down permanently."

"You're right Barbara, sorry." Helena apologized for both herself and for Dinah as well.

"I'll leave you two for now, I trust that you can handle it."

"So, this Tek is like Barbara right?" Helena asked out of nowhere.

"Yeah, why?"

"Well all the equipment we're using is provided by him, so what I want to know is do you trust him?"

"Of course I trust him, he's been there for me for almost five years. He helped me with my" Dinah paused for a moment to think of how to put it. "condition." She finally decided. "He took me in and helped me to still be a super hero."

"I just wanted to make sure, I've never trusted anybody too well outside of a close few. Another thing is, what's his real name?"

"His real name? I, well, he never told me actually." Dinah admitted, "But just because I don't know his name doesn't mean that he's not a good guy."

"You're right, I've just got a bad feeling about tonight, and I don't know why. Promise me that you'll be careful Dinah."

"You know that I will be, but." Dinah interrupted Helena just as she was about to speak. "But I know that you won't be satisfied until I promise so, I promise that I will be as careful as I can be."

"Thank you Dinah." A quick glance at a clock that they had set up earlier in the first week told Helena that it was time for them to get going. "We gotta go Dinah, so before you turn into Canary, I need to tell you that I love you."

"Ladies it's time to get going, so I want coms on." Barbara called to them.

They smiled at each other as they activated their coms, "I love you to." Dinah told her. Both then turned into their super hero counter parts, jumping into the sewer entrance that would lead to the tunnel they wanted.

Nine hours earlier

"You're just full of information this week aren't you?" Saitoh asked in a slightly mocking tone.

"I do what I can, and I seem to have stumbled upon a lot of information recently. They've finalized their plans, and it's set to go down tonight."

"Tell me more or you won't be getting any money what so ever, in fact you might just have a little slip from the edge of the building." Threatened Saitoh.

"No need to get testy. I know everything that they're bringing with them, the route they've chosen, and all back up plans. If you set things up correctly you can capture them easily."

"Go on."

"Here on these papers is a list of everything, weapons, and a map of the course they want to take. Also, the red head will be alone in the warehouse, so it will be a perfect opportunity for you to take out three birds with their own rock. The operation will commence at ten o'clock; I trust that with all this you'll be more than suitably prepared to deal with anything they throw at you, and that I'll be getting a lot of money."

"I doubt that you would have it any other way." Saitoh picked up a briefcase that lay at his feet, and opened it revealing a great deal of money. "Mr. Inyana has chosen to pay you quite a large sum for this information. Inside you'll find twenty five thousand dollars, we'll call you again when we need you." Saitoh shut the briefcase stepping forward to the stranger and exchanging the money for the papers.

"Lovely doing business with you and Mr. Inyana; I look forward to our next encounter."

"Pity I can't say the same." Saitoh said before he walked off.

Saitoh hurried to tell Saio about the teams plan, both went carefully over the papers deciding the best course of action. It was decided that they would take no chances and the storage area would be filled with several Kaze members and four of the youkai. Each would be equip with a plethora of weapons, along with masks that would make the flash grenades, and smoke bombs useless. It was also decided that Saio would be moved to the top floor as that was where they would least expect him if they did manage to somehow escape, instead his office would be filled with more Kaze members. On the top most floor Saio would be guarded by another two youkai soldiers, this seemed sufficient enough to take care of the two that were coming to get them; for the other one they would send four Kaze and one youkai. Now all they had to do was wait.

Present time

"I fucking hate sewers." Huntress was busy complaining as they trudged through the small tunnel; the smell emanating from it was pretty unbearable. "Canary, if we every have to stop an evil terrorist group we are not going this way again."

Canary was in front of Huntress at the time, which gave Huntress full view of her shaking shoulders proving that she was laughing softly. "Whatever you say, but I think Oracle is the one you want to talk to about that."

"Alright fine then, I will. Oracle" Huntress meant to keep speaking, but was cut off.

"I know, I know no more sewers." Oracle sighed, and Canary could practically see her head go straight into her hand from frustration.

"Glad we're on the same page." Huntress snorted.

"Stop complaining already, we don't have too much further to go and then you'll be out of the big bad sewer."

"Hey, it's mucking up my leather, and with feral abilities comes an increased sense of smell, so this is a lot worse for me." Canary just shook her head, and decided that it was best to ignore Huntress who continued to rant behind her.

"Quiet, we're here." Ordered Canary pointing to a hatch right above them.

"That bad feeling I was talking about earlier is getting worse, I don't know about this." Huntress voiced her concerns.

"I know, I'm getting a feeling to, but we need to do this before it's too late, before they start doing more damage." Reluctantly Huntress nodded. They prepared to go through the hatch each pulling out a flash; Canary climbed the ladder and began to open the hatch. First they would throw in the flashes, then Canary would pull herself up through the hole and start dispatching sentries while Huntress jumped out of the hole and took care of the rest. Showing three fingers to show that it would be a countdown Canary waited for a nod from Huntress before starting, two, one, go.

Canary shoved the hatch open, and in a period of only a few seconds both were out the hatch ready to fight. They didn't, however, count on all the guns aimed at them. "Well I think I can safely say that this is no good." Huntress remarked sarcastically.

"Put up your hands and don't move." One of the several people surrounding them called out, Huntress and Canary eyed each other warily before breaking out into grins. Sure all the people here were wearing gas masks, but that didn't give them the ability to see through smoke. Slowly they started to raise their arms each discreetly taking one of the gas bombs. "Whatever you have in your hand put it down." The same voice called.

"You heard the man Huntress, put it down." Said Canary.

"We'd better listen." Simultaneously both dropped the bombs, pins pulled, and as they hit the bombs exploded in a cloud of smoke. Shots erupted and both girls dove to opposite sides. The smoke made it almost impossible to see where they had gone, and both girls were methodically tazzering several of the shooters as it seemed like the most efficient way to get rid of them, after all they didn't have the time to deal with this.

The smoke settled and everyone (including Huntress and Canary) realized how many shooters they had actually taken out. All that seemed to be left was the four youkai members along with four Kaze; Canary figured that if they played their cards right they could get through this. A distraction was what they needed, so Canary did the only thing she could think of, she heaved another smoke bomb away from here and watched it explode drawing the attention of everyone. Both her and Huntress charged in quickly taking out the four Kaze, but leaving them with four youkai, and Canary didn't know how they were going to handle this, the youkai weren't exactly known for being pushovers.

It was four against two now, but the two held distinct advantages, for Huntress it was her feral abilities, and for Canary it was the fact that she had worked and trained with these people, so she knew their styles.

Huntress took up a fighting stance as her two rushed at her, she leap frogged over one of them as he tried to tackle her legs she landed low and caused the other one to basically trip over her, although, it was a bit more painful than that. Huntress was standing once more prepared for the first one that came running back at her, she side stepped and stuck out her arm clothes lining him; he fell to the ground trying to suck some breath back in. Number two was up again and raining blows down on Huntress who blocked them all until one slipped through catching her in the diaphragm, it was followed up with a blow to her nose and a kick to the side of her head. Only slightly dazed, Huntress recovered quickly sending her own punch aimed for the nose, the woman dodged slightly and it hit her cheek instead. Now the man was getting up behind Huntress who was, of course, aware of this fact and more than ready to deal with it. From behind he lunged at her, but Huntress easily jumped over him, and he stumbled into the other youkai's arms. "This is too easy." Huntress thought briefly before something caught her eye, and she was forced to give up.

While Huntress was fighting, Canary's hands were just as busy; the one she was fighting right now kept throwing punch after punch in rapid succession, it was all Canary could do to block them. Her opening came soon enough though, and she was able to grab one arm and throw him, the other one charged, and using their momentum, Canary managed to throw that one to. She continued to do this until they finally wised up to her plan, while the throws were hurting them, Canary wasn't even getting remotely tired, so they decided that a change in strategy was necessary. The first one aimed a flying kick at her, which, although she tried to avoid it, hit her in the shoulder, it was followed up with an attempted blow to the neck that Canary ducked and then countered with several hits to the stomach and chest. The next one tried their luck now, jumping at her, but Canary just kicked her when she was within striking distance, causing her to fall to the ground. Canary wasn't done though, she noticed a shovel leaning against a few of the boxes, and grabbed it so that she could knock the woman unconscious. That's when she saw it, as had Huntress, and was forced to drop the shovel.

It was Barbara being carried in by Saitoh, and with four guns pointed at her head, it was a silent threat that both Canary and Huntress acknowledged, 'give up or she dies.' Canary and Huntress walked closer so that they were just a few feet away, and raised their hands. Saitoh nodded at the youkai members who were busy getting back up, their belts were removed, and their own handcuffs were used to restrain them. Canary turned to shoot a glare at the youkai who she had fought, but her head was suddenly in a lot of pain, nearby their seemed to be a short of metallic ringing, but everything faded to black.

"Canary!" Huntress shouted worried, after all, being hit in the face with a shovel wasn't usually a good thing; she glared at the one holding the weapon.

"Mr. Inyana wants them taken to the fifth floor, so let's hurry."
