"Blue you have eyes on the target?" Pink asked through the ear piece.
"Almost they haven't come out of the store yet." Blue answered watching the victim from the building next to them.
"Any hostages?" Green asked.
"Yeah a store clerk who was closing up and a security guard." Blue answered again.
"How many are there?" Pink asked.
"Four guys all armed" Blue answered.
"They cut the security monitor cops aren't coming" Grey reported from her position closer to the building.
"They wouldn't do any good anyway if it weren't for us they would be dead by now yet here we are sneaking around to-" Green started only to be cut by Pink. "We dont have time for a rant Green we need to do this as quickly and quietly as we can got it."
"Yeah whatever are we gonna kick some burglar ass or what?" Green groaned.
"In a minute Green. On my mark we initiate Omega 2." Pink demanded gaining words of understanding from her team.
"Remember we must be quick to get in and out no down time. Grey the hostages are they in the same room?" Pink asked.
"Yes" Grey answered in a lazy tone as she already knew what she was about to be asked.
"Don't allow them to remember a thing" Pink said precisely what she thought she would. A pocket watch dropped from Grey's palm catching it by the end of its chain "I never do" Grey replied.
"Alright girls let's go!" Pink commanded.
"Drop the jewels" Pink commanded taking the straightforward approach of Olmega 2.
"Oh and who are you?" One of the thuggie men asked.
"Doesn't matter just drop the jewels or get your asses whipped or don't and make this a little fun" Greens cocky voice rang as a challenge to the men.
"Oh and what are a bunch of masked little girls gonna do about it are you trying to be heros you know that man's work right" the biggest man smirked looking directly at them as he dropped a group of rings into the bag.
"There kinda stupid arent they?" Grey whispered over to Pink as she watched Green the meanest and most brutal of the bunch start to fume. "Yep" was all pink could do every time they did this they would be underestimated talked down to she really did understand Greens fury with there...situation. She missed when there name was feared among all evil and wrong doers. "Grey deal with the hostages Green go ahead with the leader i'll take the other three to the station." Hearing this the biggest thug started to laugh.
"You think she can take me and you my boys? Go back to your mommy and learn how to cook will ya" the cocky man didn't falter when they did not move or when they started to move closer it did start however when he called his boy who didn't respond.
"Boy go get em if they won't leave knock them out send em to the hospital" he called to his boys with no response looking back he could see there jewels sprawled on the ground along with their knocked out bodies. Then suddenly everything went fast a grey blur moved like wind to the hostages a pocket watch swaying in front of their eyes. Next the pink blur had his men in ONE hand FLOATING them out of the room. Fear flooded his body as he could feel something begin to wrap around his leg looking down a lime green vine had begin to wrap around his leg. Then slowly he looked up she was there a green blur that didn't hesitate to beat the shit out of him which she took all liberty to do exactly that.
"Ok i'm going to take these guys to the station give Bullum the full report ok" Pink told her team including the one still on the building holding her Dart gun. "Hey don't forget this Bastard take him with ya" Green called carelessly tossing the unconscious man on top of the pile.
"Good to see this was done easily" Pink commented in a satisfied voice before flying out as quickly as possible.
"You got them?" Green asked Grey looking over to the two people. "Yeah the security guard will just think he fell asleep as for this guy" Grey said looking over towards the man. "I'll need to find his house" she said taking the man brible style. "Why not just drop him off at some bar or something he'll think he blacked out due to booze." Green shrugged looking at the man.
"Nah if he's seen there will be no alibi I should just take him home." Grey commented.
"Alibi your kidding right?" Green asked.
"No one will recall serving him drinks" Grey explained.
"Just go buy him a 12 pack and poor it down the drain no one will look to much into it haven't you noticed this towns pretty dumb" Green reminded.
"That one time they are would be our luck. Think I'll just take this guy home rather not get my ass chewed out by Pink."
"True, you got any information on him?" Green asked.
"Yeah the name Philip and he lives at Sunnyside apartment 567" Grey explained gaining a look from Green though her face was covered it was obvious that she was questioning. "Has this place got robbed that much that you memorized the employees information? That's some strange dedication."
"No it seems he had a date tonight he gave the girl directions he missed though ya know because of the being a hostage and thingsā¦." Grey shrugged.
"Kay take him home" Green turned to leave.
"Actually he has a car" Grey commented jingling a pair of keys.
"I'll take it to his place" Green offered.
"Well can we all take the car?" She asked.
"Listen it's been years since i got to pick up a car let me have this" Green groaned Grey sighed but nodded.
"Yo Blue where gonna take this guy home make sure the guard doesn't wake up" Green called up to Blue.
"Sure thing girls" Blue nodded eagerly.
"Boring night wasn't it?" Grey said in a bored tone looking over to Green as they took to the sky with only a grey and green streak left behind.
"Aren't they all" Green said. "If they knew who we were, it would be different" Green continued. "They'd start getting creative like they used to be" Grey sighed.
Blue sat on the top of the building leg swaying over the edge it wasn't a very tall building but it would give anyone normal a fright. She couldn't help but notice how long her legs had got flexing her feet inside the her uniforms shoes she felt a bubbling sensation as her toes wiggled. Stretching her arm she flexed her fingers and giggled.
"I remember back when I didn't even have figures" she giggled to herself. "Or toes" she giggles flexing her feet. Thinking about the past soon brought a frown to her face as the day came to her mind. The day was pretty controversial both amongst her sisters but everyone who knew, well everything. Pink didn't say anything but she missed the glory days when they could go around town fully powered in the day people respected them and look toward them for help for guidance to them for help for guidance. Green hated the people that threw them into the situation that forced almost all of the world to forget she missed showing off to. Grey missed the benefit of being able to use her power for jobs that normal people couldn't do. And Blue, Blue missed the people who forgot their past they forgot them they had to start all over again make their old friends again, which they did but it wasn't the same.
Whatever friends they made they had to be distant secretive but Blue knew it was for the best no matter how sucky it was.
"What the hell?" A voice rang in her ears catching her attention in the jewelry store stood a man he was tall and lanky in dark clothes. The man took a second to assess the situation before getting out a phone.
"Pink" Bubbles called into the mic with no response, she checked to see if the thing was on.
"Pink?" She said again after assuring herself that Pink could hear her.
"Hey yo boss i found out why those goons hadn't cames backs" the man hissed into the phone.
"Did theys do a hit and run?" She could hear the boss ask.
"No there not here but the jewels are" the man said his voice annoyed.
"Did the cops nab them those idiots i thought Grubs taught them to undo the security!" The man bellowed over the phone.
"Pink!" Blue cried as she tried again to reach her teammate.
The man walked further into the store into the back room she guessed.
"Nah the damn security's alarms shut offs meaning they either ran or someone else got em" the voice hissed again.
"There any blood?" The man over the phone asked.
"Pink?!" Blue tried again she felt something off something bad was about to happen.
"Blue I'm reporting toBellum talk to Green and Grey I can't entertain you right now" Blue was silent when she finally got an answer.
"Nah just this knocked out security guard" the hissy voice responded.
"Is he alive?" The voice asked Blue felt her stomach tighten.
"Pink you don't understand" she cried into the mic.
"Then make him not alive can't have anyone seeing the simples on those fools after your done with him find them" the voice said and Blue panicked she had to orders to attack but she wouldn't let him die could she.
"Gotchas boss" the man answered not even hesitating for his holster.
"Pink he's gonna kill him" she all but screamed into the mic looking for an order to save him her screams cause a small shriek to break into the night. The man started to falter for a moment looking around for the sound that broke the night. "Whose out there's?" The man hissed turning to look around.
Blue stumbling back hoping not to be seen.
"What's going on?" The man on the other line asked.
"Nothing i think i heard a bird cry or somethin" the man said quickly whipping out his gun preparing to shoot. Putting up her own gun she aimed it straight at him pulling the trigger with no hesitance she watched as it zoomed through the air faster than any bullet silently digging itself into the small of his back, knocking him out. The sound of a loud bang shot through her ears eyes widening she jumped off the building running into the store.
"No no no no" she repeated to herself as she entered, blood stained the wall she could see the wound was in a fatal spot if she didn't do anything he would die.
"Pink he was shot" she screamed into the mic her sonic scream teetering on the verge of activation.
"Blue what was that shot what happened?" She sound worried now.
"Oh now your worried i have been trying to contact you because of this" she told her leader sharply. "The security guard was shot a man came in after you guys left he was told to shoot and go after the other four guys." She explained in the strongest voice she could manage.
"W-what should i do?" She asked her voice breaking slightly.
"Call the ambulance tell them that you were walking by when you heard a gunshot tell Grey and Green to go to the base we'll meet there and you can explain everything" Blue listened to her words heading over to the phone behind the counter when she remembered something
"Wait Pink I stunned him," she told her leader.
"What?" She asked.
"He was gonna shoot soI shot first-" "Did he see you?"
"No he doesnt know im here but if the cop get here there gonna want to know how he got stunned by a tranquilizer the could be used a tiger" she was scared she wished they were here to help her.
"Say the man ran point them in the other direction store his body in the back alley" she reasoned sounding as if it were the most obvious plan in the world.
"I - I can do that" she stammered assured her leader calling the ambulance first then hiding the body. In the midst of her anxiety she paced in front of the man who was still out could. "Grey has you under some trance huh getting shot and still knocked out" she said to the man. "I hope that stuffing i put into helps at least a little" she told him again looking at the clump of tissue she pressed into him to slow the bleeding. "What's your name?" She asked basically to herself as she looked at the guard's name tag.
"Arthur huh? Well hello Arthur Im Blue" he greeted the man to no response.
"They should be here any minute Arthur i can hear them closing in" she reassured the unconscious man. She could also hear the sounds of her sister nearing quickly she ran out to meet them.
"Go!" She urged them then.
"Blue what's going on?" Green asked.
"Do you smell blood?" Grey asked curiously.
"Listen go to base I will explain everything just trust me" Blue urged them.
"Blue what happened?" Green demanded.
"Go to base Blue will explain later" Pinks voice called so low it only reached the ears of her teammates.
"Fine but you better explain" Green glared before flying off.
"Better have the mask off the ambulance are arriving" Grey advised before flying off to base with Green. Landing Blue did just that taking her mask off she ran to the man looking on to him with concern.
"Ma'am where is he?" The man asked hoping out of the ambulance.
"Over here i dont know if he ok or not" she cried allow destress to take over.
"Don't worry ma'am he'll be fine" the man assured as his team filed out to look at the man.
"I tried to patch him up until you arrived" she told the parametric as she examined the bloody clump of tissue.
"Ma'am do you mind telling us what happened?" An officer asked stepping out of his car.
"I was walking home when i heard a gunshot a i went to go investigate when i saw a man running out of the store, I think he was trying to rob it," she explained.
"That explains the mess. Maybe he didn't expect to actually shoot anyone and that scared him off" she heard the officer note to himself.
"Well it's been a long night do you need one of us to take you home?" He asked.
"Well he ran in the direction of my home so i think i'm gonna call my grandpa get him to pick me up. He lives away from that direction." She explained to the officer in a distrught tone.
"Well alright I'm sorry you had to witness that" he said patting her shoulder.
After she left the cops looked around the crime scene.
"Hey Brown look at this" one of the men called as he picked up a phone.
"What is it?" Brown asked
"I think it might of been the shooters phone" the man answered looking through it.
"Well does it have any information?" He asked walking over.
"No just the last call he made" the man answered.
"Who to?" Brown asked.
"The Big Ace? Maybe it's a code name?" the officer said.
"Well when did he last call him?" Burrow asked.
"Uh sir" the man seemed frozen for a second.
"What?"
"It says 11:10" the officer answered.
