Tracy tossed Zero back into the tank as she swung around to attack Max and Alec. "Freaks," she sneered at them, as she lunged at them, only for them to easily move out of her reach. "You're going to pay."
"For what?" Alec asked as he kicked her. "For the fact that you're ugly." Alec ducked a wild swing from Tracy. "What's the matter, did I hurt your feelings?"
"For talking."
"We can talk as much as we want to." Max got a kick in this time, and Tracy slammed a punch into the side of her head, throwing her off balance. Alec caught Max's arm as she got ready to fight again. "We need to do this on flat ground."
"Yeah, you're right," Max whispered to him, as she landed a kick into Tracy's stomach forcing her back off the side of the tank and down to the flat ground beside it. "How's that?" Alec shot her one of his trade mark smiles as they jumped down.
"Better," Zero said, as she jumped down next to them. "Let's take her down. I'm getting tired of playing nice."
"You okay?" Alec asked her, as they turned to look at Tracy who was glaring at them. "What?"
"You freaks disgust me," Tracy said, as she quickly raised up her fights and got ready to fight.
"We know that all ready," Max snapped at her. "Let's just get this over with."
"Bring it on." Tracy flew into a sequence of punches and kicks, that they all easily avoided. They got some punches and kicks in themselves and that only fueled Tracy's anger. "You're going to pay for that."
"Oh, really," Zero said, as she grabbed onto one of Tracy's arm and twisted it behind her back. "I bet you're one of the best that the familars have."
"Yes, I am." Tracy threw Zero away from her and Zero landed gracefully on her feet. "I hate it that you were made to be perfect."
"Perfect?" Zero shot Max and Alec a smile. "I guess you could say that." Tracy threw herself at Zero, taking her down to the ground. "Get this thing off of me."
"Gladly," Max said, as she and Alec grabbed onto Tracy's arm and yanked her off of Zero. "You don't have the right to attack her."
"I have every right," Tracy sneered, as she fought to get free of them. "I've been training for this opportunity for a long time."
"Well, you're gonna have to wait for a bit longer." Max and Alec slammed a fist into her head knocking her out. "Because we're tired of messing with you right now."
"Good one, Max," Alec said, as they looked down at Tracy. "Now the million dollar question is, what do we do with her?'
"Take her and Ames out somewhere and leave them," Zero said, as she dropped down next to them. "I don't want to kill them. If we kill them, we're not any better than they are."
"You're right about that." They then left Tracy with some others before heading to the roof. Zero's face lit up when she saw Sean. "We're so not like them." Zero swung her son high into the air and his laughter brought a smile to the other transgenics' faces. "Life is good."
"Zero," Max called out to her, as she came up to her side. "We have someone else who we would like you to meet." She then motioned towards the girl. "Do you recognize her?"
"Luna," Zero called out, as she passed Sean to Max and took up her daughter in a bear hug. "It's been so long. Mommy's missed you."
"I missed you too, Mommy," Luna cried out, as she hung onto her mommy.
"Who's that?" Sean asked Max, as Alec came to her side. "Who's Luna?"
"Sara's your sister, little man," Alec pointed out. "Now you have a play mate."
"But she's a girl."
"So?" Max said, as she looked over at Zero to see that she had tears in her eyes. "Girls are fun to play with. Aren't they, Alec?"
"Yes, girls are fun to play with," Alec said, as Biggs and CeCe came over to their sides. "How are you guys doing?"
"We're doing great," Biggs answered, as the others came up to them. "Carmen, Spike, Keith, and Sara were really helpful. They are really good at fighting."
"Well that's good to know, that they're not useless," Alec teased, as he looked at the four of them. "We're glad that you guys did decide to fight alongside us."
"We did it for Zero and Sean," Spike said, as he looked around. "She's been good to us, even if we haven't been all the nice to her."
"You guys did okay," Max said, as she looked down at White. "Biggs, get him to the van and have your guys get his other flunkies into it. We're going on a road trip out of town to drop them off somewhere were they won't be able to get any help for a while."
"Sounds like a great plan, Max," Biggs said, as he and the four took off to do what she had asked.
"Max, it's going to be okay," Alec whispered to her, as he came up to her side and ruffled Sean's hair. "After we're done with this, all we really have to do is train the others on how to fight White's men and we're free to live our lives normally."
"That sounds great, Alec," Zero said, as she and Luna came up to them. "I want to introduce you guys to my little girl, Luna. Luna this is Max and Alec."
"Who's he?" Luna asked, as she pointed to Sean in Max's arms. "Is he her son?"
"No, Sean's my son. He's your little brother."
"Cool." Luna shot Sean a smile as she curled more into Zero. "I always wanted a little brother."
"Max, we're ready to go," Biggs called up to her. "You guys coming or what?"
"We're coming," Max called down to him, as she handed CeCe Sean. "We'll be back." She and Alec then blurred off for the van and their bikes. "Let's go." They then took off to find a remote place to drop off White and his buddies.
They found a set of caves and tunnels about fifty miles out of Seattle. They quickly separated them from each other, leaving them tied up and blindfolded. Then they left them, and headed back for TC.
