Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Shadow Clovers. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own Totally spies, Vincent, David Michel and a few others do.
Umbra dodged another laser before hurling the crate at the CCC thug. He collapsed to the ground as his helmet buzzed.
"Oh look, Ray's lady friend is calling him." Luke joked as Umbra turned to look at his friend in annoyance.
"Very funny, Gadget." Umbra hissed before another laser almost sliced through his side. He hummed and let out a sigh. "I'm going to take this… Someone stop the truck before they get away with their cargo." Umbra ordered his friends.
Umbra flew up to a crane, answered the call and punched one of the CCC thugs. Umbra watched as the thug collapsed to the ground.
"Hello?" Umbra asked, he could already guess the only person who would know his number. Umbra made sure his suit didn't have the same phone numbers as his phone.
"Ray, you wouldn't happen to be on another mission, would you?" Clover asked as Umbra blinked and then rolled behind a beam to take cover.
'Of course, Clove would have my phone. She only told me she had gotten it beforehand.' Ray mentally thought while deciding to come clean about the truth.
The sound of lasers wasn't exactly something he could drown out anyway.
"Yeah, we're kind of trying to stop a shipment of cash their using." Umbra stated before vaulting over the railing. "Why do you ask?" Umbra questioned his friend before landing.
He severed the rifle of one of the thugs before roundhouse kicking the man to the ground. One of the thugs turned and shot at him with his laser rifle. Ray felt the laser ricochet off his suit and grunted in pain.
"Because Jerry is tracking you guys and wants you all to come to his office after this." Clover stated before one of the thugs rushed Umbra. Umbra dodged the blow, grabbed the man's wrist and tossed him into a crate, shattering it to pieces.
"Uh…" Umbra started to say before the sound of tires cut him off. Umbra looked at his friend and motioned to the truck. "Tell him we're be there soon. Things are… Difficult here." Umbra stated while raising his arm to fire another laser.
Umbra ended the call. He could already tell this would be a very long and annoying day.
"Smooth, Casanova!" Gadget yelled as Umbra fired the laser. The truck narrowly dodged it. Umbra rolled his eyes and turned to his friend.
"At least I don't fail to stop the truck!" Umbra hissed back before firing his jet boots and shooting up and into the air to chase down the truck in question.
It helped that Ray designed the Umbra armor to be able to outmatch fighter jets… These suits were originally government property before someone wanted to scrap them.
Umbra shot into the air and raced for the truck. He prepared one of the suit's rockets…. Umbra questioned why his friend and him decided it would have been a good idea to put lethal weapons inside the suits.
Then again? They also decided to give each suit a crazy name and such to go along with their looks. It didn't do anything to take the thought out of Umbra's head.
Umbra fired the rocket which he locked onto the back of the truck. Umbra didn't plan on killing anyone, not unless he had to.
The rocket impacted the truck. Umbra grinned as the explosive did a good job of severing the axle from the truck. The others caught up as the truck spun out and crashed into a shipping container and flipped onto its side.
Umbra landed as the wounded and dazed drivers climbed out of the wreckage before collapsing. Umbra hummed as the sounds of police sirens started to come close.
Umbra and his friends turned and flew into the air. They knew the police would want to arrest them for fighting like this.
Then again? They did fight what the police usually didn't feel like fighting, so it wasn't like they were trying to be illegal.
"Clove?" Umbra asked as he called the spy back. "We're heading back now. You can tell Jerry we're be there very soon… These suits have enough juice for at least a day or so." Umbra stated before turning the call off.
Umbra already knew that things were going to be a lot different in Beverly Hills. A LOT different.
"Do you have to call her even on missions?" Umbra heard from Luke as the group flew back towards home.
Umbra didn't grace that question with an answer. Luke was probably just ribbing him like he always did. Umbra knew his friends very well.
"Yeah, considering she's my best friend outside you guys." Umbra stated which caused his friend to stops.
"I think we should get back and talk to them soon. Make sure that they absolutely need us." Umbra heard from Amy who nodded in amusement.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! I want to point out that Clover and Ray are going to be working together on missions. Next chapter will be in 3-6 weeks and will show Ray and Clover talking and bonding more on a mission. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
P.S: I am going to make a Sam story within a few weeks hopefully or a bit longer.
