OoOoOoOo Chapter 3 OoOoOoOo
Amara walked up the driveway tired and exhausted. As she moved onto the lawn a black Honda civic quickly made it's way into the driveway making Amara thankful she had moved.
"What's up with you?" Amara asked Wanda who quickly gout out of the car and headed towards the door.
"Where are the others?"
Amara shrugged, "I just got home…"
Wanda walked past her and Amara followed her with a confused expression. When they opened the door and walked into the house loud music blared out making both cover their ears.
/Cum girl, I'm tryna get your pussy wet
Work that, lemme see you drip sweat
Cum girl, I'm tryna get your pussy wet
Work that, lemme see you drip sweat
Gon play with it
Gon play with it
Gon play with it
Gon play with it
Gon play with it
Work thatclit
Cum girl/
"Hello?" Wanda called out and walked into the living room where she found Rogue on the couch reading a book while Lexa and Jubilee danced in the middle of the room.
"Are Monday's gonna be Orgy nights?" Amara asked leaning against the wall watching the dancing girls. Rogue looked up to look at them but didn't answer since she couldn't hear them because of the loud music.
Wanda rolled her eyes and using her powers stared at the stereo and boom, it blew into flames.
"What the…" Jubilee asked and she and Lexa for the first time noticed Wanda and Amara.
"Oh hey guys, what's up?" And Wanda you owe us a new stereo bitch," X-23 told them rolling here eyes.
"I'll make Pietro pay you back, I'm sure you guys will come up with a compromise," Wanda answered slyly making Lexa glare at her and Rogue perk an eyebrow.
As Wanda opened her mouth to speak again Amara interrupted her with, "Guess What?"
"What?" Jubes asked.
"I got a job."
"Yay me too, where did you get it?"
"Well it's nothing big but I'm gonna be a waitress at this cute little café "Le Café Bleu" I'm gonna work Monday through Friday, seven to four."
"Awesome, well I'm working at a bar, but just in the mornings which I thought was great since it won't interfere with our night job," Jubilee told her and then both young girls babbled on excitedly forgetting all about the others.
Rogue looked at the newbies and then at Wanda, "What's up?" Yah look liahke yah got something tah say."
"Hmm?" Oh yeah, Wanna know what happened at the office today?"
"Puh-lease, Pietro and me making out isn't that big of a deal!"
Wanda rolled her eyes, "Not everything is about you Lex," she told her while Rogue gaped at Lexa and mumbled a "what?".
"I was actually talking about the officers that showed up after your little visits. Did you pass them on your way out?"
"Oh yeah…what was that about?"
Jubilee and Amara stopped congratulating each other about their jobs to hear what Wanda was going to tell them. "Well you guys know your last hit was Evan Daniels, right?"
"Ya..."
"Well he used to work at Lensher Industries and they came to ask Pietro about it. You know if he had enemies and that kinda bull…"
"Wait...wasn't he fired? I though Pietro fired him a couple of months ago?" Lexa asked.
Wanda perked an eyebrow, "Well aren't we knowledgeable about the happenings at Lensher industries...just how long have your visits been going on for?"
Rogue rolled her eyes, "Can we continue with the story at hand please?"
"Oh ya, anyway the police officers asked Pietro why he fired Evan and he told them because he was stealing information and things from the office. He also told them that Evan had begun acting unlike himself, stuff like he would miss many days of work at a time..."
"Did they buy it?"
" I guess so cause the seemed pretty chummy after they left. But then again I wouldn't be surprised if they did suspect, anyway I'm telling you guys this so you'll be careful. I'm sure someone will tail him for a while and we don't to get caught right?"
"Ya," Jubilee, Amara and Rogue answered.
"Uhhh would this be a bad time to tell you guys we have a new hit?" Lex asked making the others look at her and groan.
"So much for staying low for a while..." Jubes mumbled.
"What new job?" Wanda asked.
"Whether you wanna believe it or not, there was a real reason I went to see your brother. He gave me a new hit," she answered taking out the papers from her bag and throwing them on the center coffee table.
Jubilee grabbed the papers first and quickly skimmed through it. "Roberto Da Costa..." before she could read anymore out loud the paper was snatched from her hands. Jubilee looked over her shoulder at Amara with an annoyed expression.
"Roberto Da Costa..." she repeated, the name coming out of her lips in a more natural way. She looked over the picture slowly. "Well he's definitely a cutie...wonder why we have to do him in..."
Jubilee snatched the paper away while Amara looked at Rogue who was giving her an answer.
"Pietro doesn't really ever tell us why we kill which people, but some of them are obvious answers. Maybe cause their completion in some way, or who knows, just cause some one out there might hate him enough to want him dead. Roberto Da Costa though...that name sounds familiar."
"It should, he's been in the news lately," Wanda answered taking the paper from Jubes. "He's our companies competition…I guess he's getting to Pietro."
"What does it say about him?" Jubilee asked going over to the coffee table to get her lab top.
Wanda handed the paper to Amara since she didn't want to read it out loud. Amara looked over the picture once again before summarizing the paper.
"Roberto Da Costa, he's 19, rich, spoiled, follows a daily planner, loves to party, owns his parents business, he's popular with the ladies…very popular. He's know to be a player and for being the bachelor that NO women can tame…um…he's also up for bachelor of the year in the Hex Factor Magazine…and I think that's about it. It also talks about how conceited he is at times and some girls that have accused him of being their babies daddy."
"Wow…seems like this guy is a definite ladies man…" Jubilee mumbled and smiled towards Amara.
Amara looked up from the paper only too the others looking at her with interest. "What?" she asked in clueless tone.
Lexa's head was peering at Amara sideways, "I've got a plan…but we're gonna need…bait…"
"Bait?" Amara asked still confused until she watched the others give a smirk her way. "Ohhhhhhh…bait…sexy bait."
OoOoOoOo Next Day OoOoOoOo
'click clink click click click click'
Katherine Pyrde made gave a small growl as she kept hearing the click click sound. She wondered how in the world Jubilee has gotten Victor to agree letting her bring her laptop while working. The petite girl stared at the pretty Asian with flowy raven hair as she kept typing away on her notebook.
"What are you doing anyway?" she asked letting her curiosity take over.
"Hmm?" Jubilee mumbled while keeping her eyes on the screen.
"I asked what you were doing? Are you in college too?"
"Uh...ya...i'm doing some research given to me by my...mentor," Jubilee asked thinking about it. As she finished there was an annoying sound that sounded like AOL instant messenger.
Kitty perked an eyebrow. "Are you chatting?"
"Me? No...i'm doing my homework," Jubilee answered typing at a rapid speed.
"Surrrrrrrrre.." Kitty answered and walked off towards the back getting enough of the noise coming from the laptop. She gave a quick look around to make sure none of the customers there needed her but left when she saw that the bar was pretty empty.
Jubilee kept her eyes glued onto the laptop, she knew Kitty was leaving since her footsteps were getting farther away but she didn't look up to see her go. At the moment she was to busy hacking her way into the "Da Costa Industries" files and talking to Rogue through aim. She was sending her interesting or useful information.
It was quiet for about ten minutes, except for the sound of people either coming in or out of the bar. None of them were coming up to the bar to order so Jubilee paid little attention to them.
Jubilee gave a small "hehehehe" as she cracked the password to get into the heart of the industries Website. She looked around the site and clicked on a link called "Calendar".
'Beep'
BitchySouthernBelle: Have u found anything yet?
AsainFireKracker: Funny u should ask Chica. I just found something yur gonna like.
BitchySouthernBelle: What is it?
AsainFireKracker: It seems that the Da Costa's have an annual ball to celebrate the success of their companies, and they celebrate it on the date they opened it like a zillion years ago. And It's later tonight :)
BitchySouthernBelle: & I find that interesting y?
AsainFireKracker: Cause it'll be the perfect time to have Amara "bump" into this womanizing a-hole.
BitchySouthernBelle: Lol. I guess, while he's at that though we should send a spy to his house and scope it out.
AsainFireKracker: Wha 4?
BitchySouthernBelle: If the plan of Amara seducing him works, then he's gonna want to take her to bed so we're gonna have to kill him off then. It'd be helpful if one of us knows the inside of his "pad.
AsainFireKracker: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :) kk. But, they're not actually gonna do anything right? Cause well Amara is…
"Aren't you gonna get in trouble for slacking off during work?" Jubilee closed the lab top at a rapid speed as if the person who had spoken was a cop.
"Doing something illegal?" the voice asked teasingly.
Jubilee looked up to look into somewhat familiar blue eyes. Her startled face went away and for a second turned into a goofy one.
"Uh…ya…I…um…I was shopping for clothes," she answered in a whisper putting up an innocent act.
Ray laughed, his orange bangs crashing with his eyes as he looked at the young girl. "Don't worry, you're secret's safe with me."
"Thanks," Jubilee answered with a sweet smile towards the handsome stranger. "Can I help you?" she asked getting back to the fact that she was the person behind the bar working.
"Ya, I just want a soda again and um…four glasses of water."
"Coming right up…"
"Thanks…"
They were both quiet as she quietly filled the glasses. Ray kept looking from her to his group, as if trying to decide something.
"Hey…"
"Hmm?" Jubes asked looking up from filling the last glass of water.
"I was just sorta wondering if you were um…gonna be working here for a while?"
"Ya I think so. I'm living with friends that make it a requirement to have a job. Plus I like it here so I think I'll be sticking around for a while," she answered while holding up three of the drinks to help him take them over to the band.
"Awesome," he answered while taking one of the glasses from her and getting the left over two. "Victor lets us practice here during they day which is why we're here a lot, but we usually perform on Monday's...so um...It'd be cool if you came later tonight and stuff..." he rambled off.
Jubilee looked a little surprised but then smiled, "Am I getting a private invitation?" she asked teasingly.
Ray smirked at her, "Ya, you are." They finished as they reached the other members and they handed each other the drinks.
"Hey, you're the new girl."
"Ya," Jubilee answered.
The blonde hair boy winked at her and mumbled to the brown haired boy, that Jubes recognized as Kitty's boyfriend that "she's cute". Jubilee giggled and looked at Ray who rolled his eyes. Out of the blue Kitty popped up and made the Asian girl jump.
"Like hey," she greeted them all and then kissed the brown haired boy.
"Jubilee, this is my wonderful boyfriend Lance, um, that over there is Duncan, that idiot is Bobby," the boy that thought she was "cute" gave a small wave. "This is Jamie and I'm sure you've already met Ray. Guys this is Jubilee."
Everyone shouted out a hi while Jubilee smiles and laughed. In her hand she was still holding the glass with soda. She looked around to see who the owner would be and noticed that Ray was looking at her...and he was the only one without a drink.
Kitty started talking some more but Jubilee walked past her to where Ray was a bit off into a corner.
"Everyone chooses water and you choose soda..." she stated.
He shrugged, "I don't believe in eating healthy," he answered giving her a charming smile.
"Aren't we a rebel living life dangerously," she answered then giggled.
"Only sometimes," he answered and reached out for the drink as she her hands went towards him. As he grabbed the glass their hands met igniting a small spark...a visible spark. A small yellow spark came out surrounded by a blue electric glow.
Jubilee's eyes widened as did Ray's.
"Um...I uh...gotta get back to work," Jubilee told him and walked away. In her mind she was kicking herself. 'Why the hell did my powers act up?' she asked herself, never noticing that Ray was looking after her, asking himself the same questions while giving his hands glimpses.
OoOoOoOo Hot Topic OoOoOoOo
Anna looked at the laptop. She tried sending a message to Jubilee but the little aim box read, "AsainFireKracker is not currently logged in". She gave a small growl and wondered what the hell had gone wrong.
Jubilee and herself had been having a pretty good conversation even though both were working and all of a sudden she had just logged off.
Anna rolled her eyes as she saw some preppy girls come inside the store. She stared at them from the behind the cashiers counter and thought, 'Sorry Girls the gap is that way'.
"Like Hi, can we get some service over here?" one of them asked. She was skinny, wearing a very short skirt and a matching multicolored shirt. To be honest it looked like she came out of the 70's.
"Can ah help yah?" Anna asked walking over to them while hiding her annoyed expression.
"Ya, we're going on dates with this two cute guys and we were wondering if you had anything sexy to wear?"
'Sexy or ------?' Rogue thought while smirking at the girl who seemed to be her age. Her hair was a blondish platinum color. The others girls that came with her walked around the store except a blonde with short shoulder length hair. She was staring at Rogue with cold blue eyes...almost as if she had read her thoughts or something.
"Ah'm sure we can find somethang tah yur liking ma'am...what exactly are yah looking for?"
"I think for now we'll just look around, thanks," the other answered while glaring at Anna. She grabbed her friend's arm and dragged her away.
Anna rolled her eyes and mumbled a whatever as she heard, "But Emma...I want to look good for Remy...this is the first time I'm actually going on a date with him since I've persuaded him..."
Rogue got behind the counter and kept a close eye on all the girls, once in a while she would notice "Emma" look at her making her wonder what the hell her problem was. When the slightly older blonde would look her way Rogue almost felt like she was peering into her head.
After about half an hour they came up to pay for their things and Emma was still dogging Rogue. Anna not being one to lose a glare fight glared right back at her without any fear.
After the staring contest continued Rogue got tired and was about to call her out about it but her cell phone ringed.
"Thanks, bye," the one that seemed perky told her and walked off.
"Vertigo...that girl...there's something about her..."
Rogue rolled her eyes," Hello?" she growled into her phone.
"Hey, what the hell did I do?" Lexa asked hearing the anger in her best friends voice.
"Nothing. Where yah at?"
"At Lensher Industries."
"Hmm...with which Maximoff?" Rogue asked her angry voicing taking an edge towards teasing. Wanda had made sure to tell Rogue what had happened at the office with Pietro and Lexa after they had discussed the Roberto Da Costa issue.
"If you must know, I'm with Wanda. I'm on my lunch break but I just heard my voice messages and caught yours. You needed me?"
"Ya, Jubilee has found a way for us to maybe get Roberto. His parents and himself have an annual ball each year. "
"Ok...and?"
"And while Amara goes and tries to catch his eye I want you to check out where he lives but we're gonna need everyone spying to make sure you don't get caught. Also since you're with Wanda ask her if she can get Mara in...she has connections after all."
"As you wish leader."
In the background Rogue heard Wanda snort, "Don't say that...it sounds gay" she told her.
Lex chuckled, "As you wish...leader..." and then she hung up.
"Bitch..." Rogue mumbled while closing her phone and looking at the clock to see if it was time for her break.
OoOoOoOo Lensher Industries OoOoOoOo
"What she say?"
"Not to call her leader..."
"Tell me news not facts."
"Oh, well she asked me to tell you to somehow get Amara into a Da Costa annual ball."
"What for? The Seducing?"
"I guess...maybe she wants them to become friends first."
"Pffh, what for, lets just kill him."
Lexa smirked, "Hey, i'm the one who's suppose to be impatient. Anyway you know how Rogue thinks...keep friends close...keep your enemies closer. Do you think you'll be able to get her in?"
"Of course...I'm a Maximoff. One of the great Erik Lensher's children...we get what we want," she answered darkly.
Lexa got quiet and looked out the window, "That's not always true..."
'After all...he wanted mercy...and didn't get it' she thought to herself. The Room then got silent.
OoOoOoOo Le Cafe Bleu OoOoOoOo
"Waitress," an elderly man called out.
Amara looked in his direction. "Hello sir, how may I help you?" she asked politely.
He looked up and smiled, "Yes, could I have a cup of coffee?"
"Of course," Amara answered returning the smile. She walked away and he stared after her oddly. He had grayish hair, a gray tux's, soft brown eyes and he was tall. He turned his head away from the young girl as the door to the cafe opened.
"Over here Sunspot..." he murmured and a boy no older than twenty looked in his direction. He had dark brown skin, brown eyes and brown hair; some of it stickled up on the sides.
"Jason...I see you still like to fool people," Roberto Da Costa sat across from the old man.
"Yes, well I can walk in here looking like myself..."
"Whatever...what do you want?"
"It's about your company...you do know who your rival is don't you?"
"Pietro Maximoff... get to the point mastermind...I have better things to do..."
"Well..."
"Ahhh" Roberto and Jason quickly turned to where the sound came from.
"Why don't you watch where you're going?"
"Excuse ME but you were the one not looking where YOU were going!"
Jason sighed, "I though I said I wanted to see you alone...why did you bring your girlfriend?"
Roberto shrugged, "In case I got lonely," he answered and got up to protect Taryn from the waitress who's back was facing him.
"Taryn, something wrong?"
"Ya, this bitch bumped into pouring hot coffee all over me. I WANT HER FIRED Berto."
"EXCUSE ME BUT YOU WERE THE ONE THAT BUMPED INTO ME! GET GLASSES! LOOKS LIKE YOU NEED THEM!"
Roberto started getting annoyed, no one talked to any of his flings like that.
"Hey, watch how you talk to her, you're speaking to Royalty now," he snarled behind the girl. She quickly turned around to glare at him and Roberto's eyes met beautiful brown eyes that seemed to have embers burning in them. She opened her mouth and started saying something to him but he toned her out and instead focused on her.
She had chocolate skin, her dark brown hair was tied in a ponytail but it seemed to go to her waist. She had small bangs on the side of her face that she unconsciously put behind her ears as she talked to him. Roberto looked her up and down. One hand was on her hip and the other was pointing an accusing finger at Taryn. Her uniform consisted of a black shirt and a matching black skirt, which went up a little above her knees.
Roberto smirked, he had to admit, this waitress was one hella of a looker. As the thought passed his head he noticed that she had stopped talking and that she was giving him a sideway look. He also noticed that Taryn seemed to be glaring at him.
"Uh...how bout we forget all about this and just make sure it never happens again, ok." He stated and grabbed Taryn by the elbow and dragged her to where Jason had been staring at them all.
"Hey, I'm gonna get some business done ok. So why don't you wait in the car," he told Taryn while giving her the keys. She still looked a bit disturbed but did as he asked.
"You were saying?" Roberto asked going back to the previous conversation.
"I was talking about Lensher's Industries being a threat to you..."
"Right but what the hell do u want me to do about it? It's not like I can just kill the heirs of the Lensher industry and have it go bankrupt..."
At this Jason gave a wicked smile," Maybe you can't dear boy...but don't forget that I'm your advisor for the company."
"So what do you want from me?"
"Approval..."
"For?"
I'm so sorry about the Delay sir," Amara butted in as Pietro leaned over to Mastermind. "But as you probably noticed I was having some difficulties," she continued and but the coffee down.
"Would you like anything else?"
"No thank you, what about you Roberto...care for anything? It's on me."
Roberto looked over Amara again and noticed her nametag.
"Hmm...thanks...but I'm not sure I can have what I want..." he answered looking her up and down, he excepted her to give him a disgusted look but was surprised when instead he saw her smirk. And he didn't know why...but it seemed so natural on her...so...dangerous.
"Well we'll never know unless you ask," she answered slyly.
He smirked, "I'll have some...hot chocolate."
"See, you never know if you don't ask. And we do have hot chocolate," she answered and walked away.
Roberto looked after her but was brought back to reality with a kick on the foot.
"Ow...what?"
"Pick up your jaw, you're girlfriend is outside." The old man stated.
Roberto rolled his eyes," ya ya, so anyway fine you have my permission or approval or whatever...but what are you gonna do?"
"That's for me to know and you to find out..."
"You do know I can fire you right?"
"I'll let you know when it gets started," he sipped his coffee, got up without saying another word left.
Roberto's eyebrow perked and he looked after him, wondering to himself what the hell mastermind would do.
"You know...when a guy looks at you like that it usually means something..."
Roberto looked up to see Amara with the hot coffee also staring after the old man.
"I'm not gay."
She smirked and put the coffee down with balanced grace. "I never said you were."
"You implied it."
"That' true...but who would really believe a guy like you would be gay," she countered and but the tab on the table. "Looks like you're paying…" she mumbled and walked away.
Roberto looked at the tab and glared out a window where Jason was still walking away, "that bastard." He looked across the room where Amara was serving an elderly couple. "But then again...I might have found something worth more than 10 bucks..."
He but a 20 dollar bill on the table and walked out, brown eyes following his figure.
OoOoOoOo Jubilee OoOoOoOo
'Ring' 'ring'
"Yellow, Domino's Pizza..."
"Horrible way to answer the phone Jubes."
"Not really, after all you didn't hang up feeling like an idiot. What's up?"
"You won't believe who I just came face to face with."
"Roberto Da Costa."
"...How did you...you set that up didn't you bitch?"
"Of course," Jubilee answered gleefully.
"How?"
"Mr. Da Costa shouldn't leave his daily planner on his companies website...or else a hacker might make a few changes and make him take a meeting with his advisor at a unknown cafe. So what were your first impressions of each other?"
"Well...to be honest..."
"Ya?"
"He's way hotter in person then in the picture."
"MARA!"
"Hahahahaha...what? I'm just saying...no wonder he's knows as a player."
"So what did he think of you?"
"Hmm...I think I got his attention."
"Alright, I'll see you later than. I found some useful info for Rogue so you might need to dress up tonight for an event."
"Ok bye."
"Ciao"
Jubilee hung up her cell and looked around before looking at her watch. Yup, work time was over.
"We'll I'm out, bye," she told Danielle Moonstar, Kitty's replacement when she went to her college classes.
Jubilee then walked by the boys who were messing around their instruments, her eyes briefly meeting Ray's before walking out of the out of "The Acolytes" bar and heading home.
OoOoOoOo Assassin Mansion OoOoOoOo
Jubilee walked inside the house and found Rogue in the kitchen with some papers in her hands, they seemed to have small drawings on them.
"Whatcah doing?"
"Planning the attack on Roberto Da Costa..."
"I though we were gonna have Amara seduce him and then knock him out or something?
"That's too easy, we need to find a way not to get Amara to involved. I mean if people see them together she's obviously gonna be a prime suspect..."
"Unless she gets hurt too..." Jubilee mumbled making Rogue look up.
"No, I would only have Lexa do something like that. She'd be able to heal quickly if wounded, and we may seem like heartless bitches but ah care for mah team."
"Awwww," Jubilee cooed seeing her show caring emotion for the first time.
Rogue rolled her eyes and looked back at the papers while clicking the tip of her pen on the counter.
"So, have you thought of a plan?"
"Not yet...All I have right now is that X will be checking out his living quarters. Amara will be inside trying to get his attention..."
"Checked..."
"Wha?"
"Uh...well...I kinda hacked into Da Costa Industries private website with all their important company stuff and whatever and well..."
"Ya?"
"I...kinda arranged a meeting with Mr. Da Costa and he's advisor Jason Wyngarde at a...very nice quiet cafe...Le Cafe Bleu..."
Rogue gaped at Jubilee and Jubes closed her eyes waiting to hear an angry outburst. She opened her left eye and looked at Anna only to see she had a small smile on her face.
"Good job...Ah can see why Logan sent yah to us even though your quiet young."
"You know Logan?"
"Of course...who do yah think made us who were are," she answered and went back to looking at the papers making a lot of T diagrams with the jobs each girl would have.
Jubilee looked at her admiringly but said nothing. She then though back to her training with the Wolverine and how fondly he would talk about the legendary Rogue, X-23 and Scarlet Witch...and now she knew why he had talked like that...he had trained them.
Rogue looked up and noticed how Jubilee was looking at her, "What?"
"Hmm? Oh nothing...I was just...remembering the past."
"Is that a good idea?"
"What do you mean?"
"If yah're an assassin there must be a reason...Ah doubt yah grew up wanting to Kill and ah know that cause growinh up ah can honestly tell yah ah wasn't expecting this to be my profession...none of us were..." she rambled on. Her eyes never looking directly into Jubilee's. Her emerald orbs stared off at a wall, with a semi glazed look.
"I'm home!" Both snapped their heads to doorway where Lexa stood. She was leaning on the doorframe and her position suggested that she had been there for a while. "Hola mi amores," she stated walking towards the fridge.
"What time did yah get here?"
"Mmmm...just a bout a min or two...around the part where you were talking about the past and stuff."
"The past is a fragile thing...it means nothing really."
Rogue looked at Wanda who had spoken, "You guys came together?
"Ya."
Everything was quiet as if private territory had been stepped on with the word "past". Jubilee looked at all the older girls, each avoiding eye contact with each other and keeping their eyes on either the wall, the window, or on the ceiling.
Before Jubilee could ask the about it someone said...
"Who died?" Amara asked looking at all the emotionless faces.
"Your mother," Lexa answered and started cracking up quickly followed by Jubilee.
Amara rolled her eyes, "Two words ladies, 'Grow up'."
Wanda walked over to Rogue, "We ready to attack?"
"Did yah get the invites?"
"Of course, don't I always come through?"
"Ya, anyhoo, this is the deal," Rogue answered giving them all a piece of paper with her scribbles, all the laughter died and they all but on their poker faces.
"Lexa, you're gonna be checking out Roberto's house or wherever he lives, Jubes can find that info for you. Ah was plannin to do it mahself since mah thieving skills would work great with it but yah'll have a better advantage with your sense of smell." Lexa nodded.
"Wanda, how many invites did you get?"
"I got two, One for me and Pie, well that was the excuse I used but I know Pietro and he won't wanna go so that ticket is for Amara."
Rogue nodded, "Then your gonna be the inside source. Keep your eyes out for anything fishy. Amara you're only goal is to get Roberto's attention and keep it."
"Can do," she answered letting a small smirk appear on her face.
"Jubilee, yah'll go with Lex. Tap phones, mess with his computer, and after both of yah just stay on the building until ah call you."
"What are you going to do?" Wanda asked Rogue.
"Ah'll be around," was the only answered she gave. "So, why are ya'll still here looking at meh? Get ready," and with that she walked out leaving the other four looking after her.
OoOoOoOo Later OoOoOoOo
Amara added a bit more blush to her cheeks. She was wearing a tight white dress, the bottom going up to her knees and was cut at different angles giving it a strange but classy look. The dress had long sleeves that were skin tight on her and her hair was down with the tips curled up.
"You ready to go?"
Amara looked over her shoulder to see the Scarlet witch wearing a black dress that went down to her feet. The straps on her shoulders were thin and there was a large cut that went up to her knee.
"Ya, you look nice by the way."
"Thanks, you don't look bad yourself," Wanda answered back and both girls look in the mirror giving their hair the last magic touches.
"Yo beautifuls, time to go and flaunt your stuff," X-23 yelled out then making her presence known by walking into the bathroom. Her outfit consisted of the same black tight short shorts, trench coat and small top, which she wore on the first night of Jubilee and Amara's arrival.
"We'll be out in a minute," Amara answered while making sure her mascara hadn't run.
"Ok, me and Jubes are leaving though and Rogue wants you out in less then five. Bye and good luck."
"Ya you to, make sure your asses don't get caught."
"Puh-leze, we're to good and sneaky for that," she answered walking out.
"Ready?" Wanda asked again smoothing her dress out.
Amara took a deep breath and looked at her reflection, would Roberto fall for her charm? Only time would tell.
"Ya," and with that they both followed the direction X-23 had gone through.
OoOoOoOo 30 mins Later OoOoOoOo
"May we have your invitations please?" A man in a black tuxedo asked them at the door.
Without saying a word Wanda passed him her invite and then Amara's.
"Thank you ladies, have a good night," and with that he moved out of the way and let them in.
"Step one, completed," Wanda spoke into a small microphone embedded in her out fit.
"Fiahne...report to me when somethang happens," Rogue voice came in through her ear.
"K," Amara answered as she and Wanda made their way towards the buffet table. They skimmed around the many snobby people looking for their prey.
"Found him," Wanda stated looking away.
"Where?" Amara asked making pretend to take a sip from her drink.
"Twelve a clock..."
Amara looked and did in fact see him. Roberto was wearing a dark tuxes, his jacket was un buttoned and his white shirt was tucked in. Amara didn't only notice how good he looked, she also noticed something in a horrible puke green...Taryn.
"I'm off to work," Amara stated while walking towards them. Wanda smirked and watched her go. She watched Amara pretend like she was just walking around, she brought her glass to drink some more wine but found that she finished her drink. Her lips turned into a pouty frown and turned to look for a butler with drinks. She found one and was about to take the last drink when her hands met another pair of hands. Bigger and rougher than hers but they still has some softness to them.
"Oh sorry about that," came an accented voice.
Wanda looked up to meet blue eyes, very familiar blue eyes. The orange-headed men twisted his head at an angle to look at her, also finding her familiar.
"Hey, aren't ya the shelia that was at Lensher industries yesterday?"
Wanda looked up at him a little in shock. The cop. Her immediate thought was, 'This job just got a lot harder.'
OoOoOoOo Outside OoOoOoOo
Rogue looked up at the building, her nerves were a bit high and she wasn't sure why.
'Ah mean, this is an easy job. Mara is just trying to catch Roberto's attention and Wanda's just babysitting…'
She had decided to go along with them but scope the situation from the outside. The huge building in which the Da Costa's held their balls went up to at lest 9 stories high. She was also wearing her Assassin outfit like Jubilee and Lexa but it was now hidden by a tan looking trench coat. The valet showing people to the door was giving her odd looks making her roll her eyes and think, 'Pigs these days…'
After a couple minutes of wondering whether she should sneak into the building she brought out a cigarette and put the tip in her mouth. Her head bowed down a bit as she frantically looked through some pockets trying to find her damn lighter.
As if on cue a light flame came and lit the tip. She looked at the lighter curiously, it was black with a small king of hearts card painted in the middle. She kept her head bowed to light the cigarette but her eyes went up to meet her smocking savior…
"It's Ms. Darkholme, right?"
Rogue nodded, "Ya…" she exhaled the smoke from the cigarette puff and licked her lips unconsciously. "Um…fancy meetin yah here…officer…"
"Lebeau. Remy Lebeau."
