Mini-lude 3

It's taken all Day, but Lisa had finished her preparations-Transferred the last bit of funds, sent out the last email, and the like. Coil's questions had been intensive, and she couldn't help but wonder how the other Lisa had suffered, but she had to put that out of her mind. She felt sorry for this new Trigger, this Akuma, for whatever it was about her that got so many people interested in her, but Fedora_Woman seemed to have the Girl's best interests in mind, and by the time the anonymous woman's plan was completed, Coil wouldn't be able to hurt anyone ever again.

Brian, a handsome young black man, and Alec, a pretty white boy, were sitting on a couch in their Lair. Lisa asked, "where's Bitch?"

Brian answered, "she's walking her dogs."

Lisa sighed. She'd wanted to tell everyone at once, but... "Okay, I'll have to tell her later. Big announcement: Our Boss is Coil. His real name is Thomas Calvert, he's a Former PRT agent who killed his superior officer while fleeing from Eillisburg, he literally forced me to work for him at gunpoint, and while he won't throw us away or anything, he can and will set us up to die if he thinks it's the best way to further his goals." Lisa took a moment to breathe and continued, "in short, he's an asshole."

Brian stared at her, open-mouthed, while Alec seemed far less attentive. Lisa knew, however, that he was paying full attention.

"I've been planning to ruin him since before we were a team, and last night I was contacted by someone who also wants him gone." At least, that's what Lisa had assumed to be true. "They gave me vital information, which I verified, and using this information I have stolen his assets and businesses out from under him and arranged for his defeat-by the end of the day, he'll be dead or in jail."

"So now what," asked Alec?

"Either we go our separate ways," Lisa began, "or I keep paying everybody and we go on as we've been going-Brian," Lisa rapidly changed thought upon noticing the young man's expression, "I can easily arrange things so that it all looks legit." Brian, of course, needed legitimate looking income, so that he could get custody of his little sister. The young man relaxed at her proclamation.

"So, stick together or split?"

"I'll stay if you double my monthly pay," Alec deadpanned.

Lisa laughed, "fine. Double pay. Double pay for everyone."

"Well," Brian said, "I don't see a reason not to stick together... As long as you're sure this isn't going to backfire on us?"

Lisa smiled a wide, fox-like grin. From what the information that Fedora_Woman provided, Coil would have been screwed even without her intervention. All she's done is speed things along "We've got nothing to worry about."

It was at that moment, that Rachel, also known as Bitch, came into the lair. On a leash was a strange dog, not one of the ones that Lisa had seen Rachel with, and Rachel was covered in blood.

"Good news: New Dog," the brutish red head said on her way in. "Bad news: Hookwolf wants us dead."

Lisa blinked, and then, flatly, said "well shit."
