Chapter 4

We walked to HitGirl's apartment. She typed a code into the wall and entered a chamber full of weapons, "Wow," I sighed picking up a Cold steel Dragonfly katana 88DK off the wall, I held it in my hands and ran my finger along the blade, careful not to cut myself. I smiled to myself as the light reflected of the blade. "Keep it," She said watching me, I slide it in my sword holder and walked to the bathroom. I pulled the cord, the lights buzzed to life. I walked towards the mirror.

I pulled off my mask and wipped all the blood from my face, "It's you?" I heard a voice ask, I turned to see Dave in the doorway, I nodded and continued to wipe the blood from the wound under my eye. He walked over. He pulled off his mask, "Taa daa," He said quietly, I started to wipe the blood from his face. He started to squirm as I dabbed at the wounds. "I already new," I said. He smiled down at me, I handed him back his mask and took my own in my hands. He placed a soft kiss on my lips and walked out of the bathroom.

"You can stay with me, if you like?" I said, HitGirl looked at me confused, "I have a spare room in my apartment, you'd really like it," I said leaning on a table and watching her put grenads and ammo into a bullet proof case. She looked at me and nodded slowly. I smiled at her, "You can move all this in there too," I said, gesturing to all the weapons and ammo. HitGirl smiled then continued to put ammo into the case. I turned to Dave to see looking into a giant box. I walked over to him and tapped him on the left shoulder but stood on his right. He looked at me and smiled, he put his arm around my waist and looked back down to the object in the box, "Niiiice," I said, dragging out the vowel. "Is that what I think it is?" Dave asked HitGirl, She nodded, "You should read this, your gonna be using it in less than half an hour," She said giving him a instruction manual.

I laughed at Dave's face, he looked terrified. "Don't worry, up is up and down is down. More or less," I said smirking. Dave turned to me, fear still evident on his face, before he started to read the instruction manual. I highly doubt he's be able to read it all before we needed his help.

"Good luck, try not to die," I said to HitGirl, she laughed and walked to the door. I walked through the back door and to the office. A tall, slim, bald man sat behind the desk. He looked up at me, scowling. I took out my Katana and sliced his head. I looked at the camera to see HitGirl nod into the camera. I rushed out of the office and helped her take out the guards. We sat it the elevator and went over the plan one more time.

She ran out of the elevator where as I stayed inside. I heard gun shots from an airpistol. I ran out of the elevator and down the hallway. I ran up on side of the wall and lunged at a man, I stuck my sword through the side of his head and pulled it out. As he fell I saw a man staring at me in awe. I ran at him and plunged my swords into his stomach, I twisted them so no one could identify the wound, and ran after HitGirl into the kitchen area.

I stood in the corner of the room and watched as a man, started to shoot at HitGirls hiding spot. I ran out from my hiding spot and stabbed the guy in the stomach then chest. I saw a large man walking down the hallway with a bazuca. My eyes widened. I ran to where HitGirl was hiding. "What are you doing?" She asked, looking at me as I crouched next to her. "He has a Bazuca," I whispered, wiping the blood from my Katana 88DK on my skirt, leaving a red stain on it. Dave hovered at the window on the jetpack. He started shooting at the men that ran into the room. HitGirl and I stood up from behind the counter.

Me and HitGirl ran into the back office, D'Amico stood up and ran around the desk, he lunged at me first but I punched him. He then started fighting HitGirl. I ran to his desk and started opening the drawers. I found what I was looking for. Knuckle Busters. I pulled them on and ran at D'Amico. I spun him around, I puched him square in the jaw. He spat blood at me as I hit him. HitGirl stood next to me. He picked up HitGirl and slammed her into the desk, I winced at the sound. I ran at D'Amico. He spun around before I could attack him. He punched me in the nose and threw me onto the desk next to HitGirl.

I gasped from the pain. We both lay there looking up at D'Amico, I slipped the knife out of my boot and stabbed him in the leg. Dave ran into the room. "Pick on someone your own size," He said, shooting D'Amico. I rolled off the desk in pain, I helped Mindy up clutching my nose.
We ran out of the building. Me and HitGirl hung onto Dave as he flew to the top of a building.

He landed and took, off his mask. I did the same and took my hair out of its high pony tail. I shook my hair and stood next to Dave. "Well? If your gonna live with me, I need to know your name," I said as Dave put his arm around my waist and pulled me closer. She pulled her wig and mask off and smiled at us, "Mindy," She said smiling,
"Dave," He said shaking her hand. I continued to clutch my nose, the bleeding was starting to slow down. Luckily D'Amico couldn't throw a punch.
"Inky Blue," I said, they both looked at me, "Yeah, this time I'm not kidding." I finished, smiling at them.
So far life was good Mindy was living with me. Me and Dave were the talk of the school since I never gave a guy a second look. We had all given up our super hero days, even though we all practiced fighting skills. But the hereos were behind us. For now that is...
