Chapter Fourteen- Unintentional Abandonment
It was a long walk to their destination- mainly because the helicopter was too loud to come within miles of the headquarters. He could already feel his body systems shutting down- although he wasn't entirely amphibious, he could bet his life on the fact that he needed a more substantial amount of heat then most people.
Jaye spoke in hushed tones as they approached their target. It looked like an office building- and anyone could have passed up for one, except for a prim red sign out in front, proclaiming "Friends of Humanity: Keeping Our Streets Safe!" He snarled at the sign, feeling for a moment quite like his old fighting companion.
They had already gone over the plan of action, so there was no reason for a pep talk. Less noise, less chance of being caught. He scaled the wall, a rope slung over his shoulder. He saw Johnny creating a small stairway of liquid reaching to the top of the building, Jay following. The rope was for Jaye, if she lost one of her forms of transport.
Toad climbed inside the ceiling entrance, climbing on the ceiling, his silent suction cup boots allowing him to do this without removing his shoes. Unfortunately, only Jaye had seen the possibility of trip bombs on the floor and ceiling.
KATANA:
Katana Fey looked at her radio with disbelief. "No complications, just crowd control, over.""No one was found injured at the scene? Over."
"No one was reported."
"No one was reported, but was anybody found?" asked Katana. There was a release of static at the other end of the line- signifying a sigh from her fellow officers. The hospitals were biased against people carrying the x-gene, claiming that they might muss up their equipment. 'Bullshit.' She thought to herself. Sometimes lives were lost because the ambulance staff conveniently 'forgot' about physical mutants lying at disaster scenes such as this.
"You can take a sweep of the building if you want hun." She smiled.
"You know I will, Tessa. Give me the coordinates, would'ja?" she asked, her friend as she flipped on her cherry light.
"Friends of Humanity HQ, off of Maple and Sixth." Katana's expression turned stony, forgetting about the radio in her pale hand, and pushed her foot a little harder on the accelerator. "Ya got that?"
"...Yeah." She said. No complications her arse. This was such a pain... her shift was almost over- a nice cushy bed and a heating pad were calling her name...but so was her conscience. "Damn you." She muttered to no one in particular, as she placed her radio back in it's cradle.
