19. First day at work

Felicia decided to go to bed after looking at her clock reading 4 am. As she woke up later. She decided to check on her guest. Roxy was still asleep and she seemed to dream of something pleasant. She decided she would prepare breakfast and then check her emails. She prepared two bowls of cereals.

As she looked into her mailbox she saw an email with an unknown address. This was tilted with "Help to get started". It was from her new employer.

Dear Miss Hardy

This is the formal welcoming into Lehr Securities. In the attached document "Cover Job" is the address for your new bar and a profile of the agent who will support you there. In the other file you find the address of a jewellery store who is a partner of ours and requested a security check. Also, in this file is the blueprint of this store as well as their security measures. Later this day will arrive the second half of your welcome gift: A dog tag and a little something to help you against sonic attack. If you are in need of additional equipment just write to me. A list of items of interest is attached to this as well. Lastly about your payment: We will pay you 10.000$ a month. For all jobs you get a bonus base on the following chart: 1.000§ for small security checks, 2.000$ for medium ones and 5.000$ for big ones. 8.000$ for asked supervillain hunting and lastly 15.000$ for participating in cooperation operations. If you have any questions regarding the categories write me as well. Have a wonderful day at work.

Berengar Hahn CEO of Lehr Securities.

Felicia wondered if this was her lucky day. This was a dream job for every burglar. Getting paid to rob and on a month basis. As she looked into the attached folder she was even more pleased. The jewellery store was an easy target. An entry point on the top, just a few lasers and security cameras this would be easy. She found it intriguing to find a sonic defence system at the vault. But all in all, nothing too special. As she searched through the other folder she was surprised to see her bar was just a few streets away. Her "employer" was by her record a kind woman in her late twenties. Apparently, she was German too. All that was left to do was waiting for the night to come.

'Maybe you were right this day is pretty amazing.' Bloom said.

'Yeah but let's not get over excited the day isn't over yet.' Felicia replied.

…

Later that day her package arrived containing a dog tag in form of a white shield with a stylised L and a set of two small devices having roughly the design of her auricle. Also, in the package was a card of psychologist. She called the office nearly before the evening set in.

"Hello here Rogers psychology office where do you have problems?" A male voice politely asked.

"Hello here is Felicia Hardy and a guest of mine has a mentally trauma." Felicia replied.

"Ah, yes Miss Hardy! One of my biggest supporters called me earlier that you might call me. He told me his cooperation would pay for the treatment of Miss Smith. So, what is my patient trauma if you would mind tell me." He asked.

'Well it seemed the right choice this morning to sigh that contract.' Felicia mused.

'Tell me about it with this contract everything seems to go right.' Bloom replied.

"She was abused at home, ran away then got sexually abused for 3 years but I don't know every detail." She stated tears in her eyes.

"I see, let's begin tomorrow afternoon." He replied.

"Yeah this sounds fine. See you tomorrow." She replied and cut the line.

'Another problem solved.' Felicia thought and clapped her hands in satisfaction.

…

Felicia stood on her balcony in the evening. She had already eaten with Roxy a nice homemade salad with carrots and tomatoes. She had now time to work.

'Okay Bloom I think now is the time to officially start a successful carrier as a employee of Lehr Securities.' Felicia announced a smirk adoring her face.

'Sure but remember my friends want to visit us.' Bloom reminded her as her body began to cover their body. Soon the suit nearly covered everything except Felicia's face.

'Of course, Bloom.' Dragonsbane replied as the mask sealed her face and wings grew from her back. She then jumped from her balcony to glide to a small jewellery store.

…

Dragonsbane smirked as the last customer exited from the store a small smile hidden behind her mask. She jumped to the roof above the small window which was easily opened. As she threw a smoke grenade down. As it exploded it revealed a wide girth of lasers. As a part of the grenade flew against one it disintegrated into a small pile of ash.

'Yikes it seems we have to be careful.' Felicia mentioned.

'True but it seems as if the lasers aren't only used to disintegrate, look.' Bloom replied focusing of a small pile of sand which hit the lasers and seemed to turn into glass.

'Well this is bad news for Sandman if he would get here.' Felicia joked at with both have to chuckle. They then began to go down very carefully. As they reached the blue carpeted bottom they noticed that all the display cases were infarcted with lasers too.

'Well, fuck. This will be a long night.' Felicia signed and began to go to a displace case to try to get to watch it displaced.

'No kidding.' Said Bloom as she lowly chuckled.

…

Meanwhile a certain Spider picked up a call of the police.

"We have a burglary in the Golden Tooth jewellery store. The burglar seems to be of supervillain calibre. All available units engage immediately." Ordered a female voice.

"Negative we have it under control." Sounded a new male voice over the radio.

"State your rang and unit." The female asked.

"I am from Lehr Security and the Golden Tooth is one of our customers. We will deal with it." Answered the male confidently. "Other ways I might have to speak to your superiors."

"Fine. You heard him. Go somewhere else." Said the female defeated.

'I bet I can be there faster.' He thought to himself and wrote a note to his wife.

…

As Spiderman went to the store he noticed he was indeed faster than this so called 'Lehr Security'. As he got into the store he noticed a black figure standing before a displace case.

"You know I thought this job was already closed. But I am sure if you pay the price you will get away." He commented.

The figure groaned. "I thought I told you to fuck off." The figure shouted in annoyance.

"Strange I recall you said you wouldn't do something major, Dragonsbane." He replied.

"Look Spider I don't I simply begin my carrier today. So, if you would please fuck off." She replied.

"I would love to but while I am here? No." He stated.

"You already forget yesterday. 'sides here it isn't a good place to fight." She stated as she turned to him. Her maw already formed and to double-bladed axes. With her hands she motioned to the countless lasers.

"What? Is the little dragon afraid do getting identified?" He mocked at he shot a web. Accidently his web hit a laser. He got a stark electronical shock from it. He stumbled. "Okay got your point."

Both of them got to the roof. "What are you dumb?" She snarled at seeing him and attacked him. He easily dodged the attack. He countered with a right hock. Now that he had some experience with fighting her the fight was more even. So, the fight went on and on. Until Dragonsbane got a good hit on him and sent him flying over the edge. He landed head first. As he turned around he saw her jumping too. She landed near him and raising her right hand. Both of them heard guns being raised. As they looked at the street they saw maybe hundred men and women in strange looking black armour with a helmet and a mask holding at them strange bulky looking weapons. All of them had a small white shield with a stylised L on their black armour. Both the Cat and the Spider heard clapping from behind the small troop. The troops turned sideways saluted and stood strangely at attention. Between them came the source of the clapping. He was white with blond hair hidden behind a WW2 styled officer's cap. He wore black in general. In his steel blue eyes were a smug look.

…

Dragonsbane stood at attention as she saw her employer. He grinned at seeing it.

"At ease, Dragonsbane." He half mocked.

"Well I have to report Sir, this is a fine security without any major lacks." She stated as she got in a more comfortable position.

"I vas sure it vas. Although I must say I am impressed you did manage to take zhat vatch. Vell for vhat are security checkz are zherefor if not to eliminate weakness?" He joked getting Dragonsbane to chuckle.

"Wait. Wait. Wait! You know each other? And why do you" He mentioned to Dragonsbane. "Talk to him like he is your boss. Who you are by the way?" Spiderman asked after getting back to his feet.

"I told you I didn't do anything against the law. 'sides it is none of your business." She replied with a smug grin.

"Let zhe adults talk Spider. Or would you razher see an article describing your real name? No? Zhought so." He said. Spiderman soon left.

"So, when I am already talking to you. Which kind of security check is this?" Felicia asked.

"A small one. Bigger bankz and shopz are medium and prison are high." He explained.

'What?' Screamed Bloom.

"Vell as I have told you I vill vright you vhen needed." He said and went away with him left the assembled force.

'Well. It could have been worse.' Bloom tried to cheer her friend up.

'Yeah and we haven't been beaten up too much.' Felicia replied with a small smile. 'Let's get home.'

'Yeah. Let's.' Bloom replied.
