"Boss, what should we do, since Robby got busted by the police last night, we lost contact inside the mayors office." D-Back said to Roach, who sat in his chair of his private office inside the gangs warehouse.
"Forget about him for now, for we got bigger fish to fry," Roach said as he carefully calculated his next words, "D-Back, send the next shipment to the warehouse down by the docks." he ordered his weapons man, and that surprised the Latino.
"Boss, we don't use that warehouse anymore because it's been under surveillance for months, if we make a massive shipment, the police will know, and they will come." D-Back warned his boss.
"I want them to come," Roach said in calm manner, "I want them to take more weapons from us, make them think they've won a major battle, before we steal it from them when 'Carnation' is unleashed," Roach said with a sadistic smile, and that caused his subordinates to smile as well, "prepare my car, I think it's time I visit the warehouse near the docks." Roach said as he stood up and headed towards the door, but D-Back held him back.
"Shouldn't you stay back boss, if we loose you, we loose everything we've gotten so far." D-Back said with a concerned tone, which made Roach smile.
Roach's skin shifted in an instant and he now resembled a police officer, complete with the uniform.
"There are benefits to being a shape shifter, one of them is tricking the police," Roach said with a sadistic smile, as his subordinates finally got over their shock of seeing their boss shape-shift, "also it allows me to make a quick exit if I need to." he said with a smile, as D-Back and Sitcom exchanged a look.
"Squirrel Girl thanks for coming by on such short notice," Jim said as the squirrel heroine walked into his office, "we've received a tip that the gangs are moving weapons to a warehouse down by the docks." Jim informed the heroine, and that caused her to nod her head.
"Quick question, if you've known they are by the docks, why haven't you moved in and busted their assess?" SG asked the police captain.
"We could never get a warren, but now we have a reason to go in because lives are at stake if the gangs receives this weapons shipment, and needless to say, I want you there." Jim informed her.
"What are we waiting for, let's move out then." SG said with a smile on her face.
"We got that five block radius secured?" Jim asked a police officer that could be found just outside the perimeter.
"Yes sir, nobody is getting in or out." the officer said with a smile on his face, and that caused Jim to nod as he reached for his radio.
"Squirrel Girl you in potion?" he asked the squirrel heroine from her hiding spot on the warehouse roof, she had climbed up there with ease once the cops had put all the security cameras on a loop.
"I'm ready Jim, send in the task force." SG whispered over her radio, which caused Jim to nod his head.
"Everybody move in and secure those weapons!" Jim ululate over the radio as the LAPD and S.W.A.T. moved in and approached the back door to the warehouse. The S.W.A.T. commander slowly opened the door and moved up behind a large row of boxes, his men following suit as they all hid behind the large boxes.
"Jim, this is Big Dog, we are holding position inside the warehouse, waiting for your men to move up." the S.W.A.T. Commander whispered to Jim through the radio.
"You heard the commander, teams one and two move up!" Jim ordered as his task force mounted up and ran towards the front door, only to be met my large amounts of gun fire, forcing them to retreat out of the line of fire.
"Open fire, let's cover those men!" Big Dog ordered as he and his S.W.A.T. members looked from behind their cover and opened fire on the gunmen who where protecting the front doors of the warehouse, resulting in half the gunmen turning around to open fire on the S.W.A.T. team, leaving them wide open for teams one and two to run in and quickly take them out with well aimed shots to their knees and arms, the first floor of th warehouse was secured a few minutes later.
"Sir we got hostiles on the second floor." a police officer inside Jim's command vehicle warned as he was looking at the thermal scope of the building.
"Squirrel Girl, move in and take out those hostiles on the second floor." Jim ordered as he counted at least seven hostiles through the thermal scope.
SG didn't respond as she quickly ripped a hole in the roof that was large enough for her skinny frame to fit through, and she found herself inside the warehouse.
"I'm inside, but I need locations." she whispered to Jim over the radio.
"There should be a door to your left, there are three hostiles in that room." Jim informed her, which made her nod, as she quickly made her way to the door and flung it open and lunged inside, where all three tangos had their guns pointed at her.
"Who wants to dance, boys?" she taunted a she lunged at the nearest gang member, quickly jumping on him and knocking him out with one powerful punch, while the rest of them opeend fire on her, but due to her super human agility she dodged all the gunfire with ease, and soon the room was cleared of all hostiles.
"Room secured," she notified Jim as she spotted a door and moved up, "what's on the other side of this door?" she asked Jim.
"Three police officers waiting for you." Jim answered over the radio, as SG opened the door and saw three of the LAPD's finest waiting for her.
"Good job, Squirrel Girl," the first officer greeted her with a smile, "to bad you missed one!" he sneered as he opened fire on his other two officers, striking them both in the head and killing them instantly, as SG lunged for the gun and disarmed him with surprising ease.
"Surprised to see you here, Shape." Doreen snarled as she took up a fighting stance in front of her shape-shifting adversary.
"Shape, really, that's the best you got?" he asked as he as well took up a fighting stance.
"I could go with Shifter if you like that more." she taunted as she and him began circling each other like wild animals.
"Your sense of humor never ceases to amuse me." Shape taunted as he pulled out a combat knife and took up a fighting stance. The two rivals stared at each other for a few seconds, waiting to see who would make the first daring move.
As fortune would have it, SG moved first and swept her tail against the ground in an attempt to knock her enemy off the ground, but the attack was too predictable as he jumped over the attack and threw his knife at her, where it impaled itself in her left shoulder, causing her to step backwards, and grab the knife by it's handle and prepare to pull it out.
"I wouldn't, you don't wan to bleed out, do you heroine?" The Shape taunted the squirrel heroine.
"I have a healing factor," she said with a smirk as she easily pulled out the knife and threw it back at him, where it got impaled into his shoulder, and judging from the grimace on his face, it was clear that is had really hurt.
"You might have won today, but soon 'Carnation' will be unleashed, and you and the city will fall." Shape snarled as he pulled out a flash grenade and slammed it into the ground where it blinded the heroine, and when her vision returned, he was gone, leaving her to ponder what the hell 'Carnation' was.
So Doreen and the shape finally faced off, but rest assured, this is not the last time these two will face off, please tell me what you think.
