Chapter 13: Tea Party
Wally and Estell chuckled as they clicked together glass of low doses of Vodka. Their date was going perfectly, they both liked their share of the technical world, cultures, and news. She got his jokes and he was genuine enough. Yes, perfect seemed to fit the setting they had forged, until the dread question came from Wally's lips. "So what do you think about The Flash?" he asked taking a serene sip of his drink.
Estell blinked and a look of irritation crossed her face. "I think he's too cocky," Wally choked at the word cocky and coughed. "Are you okay?" Estell stared at him concerned and he shook his head.
"No, I'm…fine. Cocky?" He stared with curious eyes. She nodded briskly.
"He's nothing but a big-mouthed showoffy bastard! Errrrr, he annoys me." Wally's eyebrows went up perplexingly as she shook with anger. He wondered what he had done to make her so mad. Then she sighed and looked at her lap. "I'm sorry, you must be fond of him." Again, Wally made a confused face shrugging his shoulders.
"Ah, I…he's pretty cool…" Estell giggled at how much of a goof he sounded. He smiled grimly. Here he was with a sweet, attractive, and intellectual girl, and she hated him behind his mask. He could just taste the irony in the air. Estell finished her chicken salad and glanced at the clock behind Wally.
"Oi, ya, dolzhen idti (Oh, my, I gotta go)." She murmured in Russian unconsciously. Wally raised an eyebrow. "I…sorta have a curfew," Wally chuckled as they both got to their feet and put on their jackets. They walked to his car slowly. "Sorry, my sisters are waiting for me to start a new family project." She explained awkwardly and he nodded in understanding.
"Its okay….wait…sisters?" he asked and she smiled to confirm.
"Yeah, she really a friend but we call her our little sis. Her name's Dawn." Wally imagined a little kid with a cute face. Somehow it registered in his brain as not out the ordinary. He drove her home around nine-forty and they stood in front the door, gazing at each other. "Thanks for the date." Estell said quietly feeling superbly awkward.
"No problem." He answered, feeling just as nervous. The two of them continued to stare like a pair of idiots, when Estell took initiative and kissed Wally's lips gently. He didn't pull away, kissing her back. It was long easy kissing session, until they were interrupted by Dawn opening the front door.
"Hurry up, Stell, Cory's bugging about staging the pla-" she stopped in mid-sentence staring at the two of them in shock, face going beet red. They broke their kiss apart and blinked at her. Wally was taken off guard by the beautiful pale skinned young woman dressed in a tank and pair of cutoffs. Her fawn hair was a bit messy and her brown eyes widened at the sight of him. He had to be the most stunning man she'd seen in her life. They gawked at each other and Estell became instantly aware of the circumstances. She groaned and entered the house. The other to seemed to snap out of their distracted states and stare at her a she left. "Uh, well, g-good night, mister," Dawn murmured before closing the door.
What…was that? Wally blinked a few times trying to review on what just happened. First, Estell kissed him and man that had been fun. Second, Dawn was hot, and not a kid. And three, Estell was turned off by something he'd done, something he didn't really get. He walked down the front steps to his car. Maybe he should call Dick and ask him to ask Cory to ask Estell what it was.
Dawn followed Estell to find her face banging against Cory's shoulder obsessively. "What's…wrong?" she asked slowly and Cory looked up and shook her head.
"Nothing, just another guy bites the dust is all." She patted Estell's head with a frown. "Okay, Stell, it's fine you'll find another one." Estell muffled something like 'No, fate freaking hates me! Fuck my LIFE!" into her shoulder and she rolled her eyes, making Estell sit up straight. "You still got Rev." she answered simply and Estell's cheeks burned, remembering the time he and her got drunk and how he hadn't taken advantage of her. It was sort of sweet…
She sighed with a nod. It wasn't like it was the first time fate screwed her over. "Yeah." She answered standing up and clapping her hands together. "Let's get to work. You found the bank and safe box, right?" Cory and Dawn nodded. Grins crept onto their faces. "Okay, the wig and lines ready, too. Remember you're a representative from LexCorp." Dawn gave her a sneaky, maybe even smug look.
"Darling, you are talking to a Chameleon here." She purred. "I know how to blend." Cory and Estell laughed at her random accent and nodded. "Tomorrow's gonna be fun!"
The woman ran her pale fingers through her dark jet black hair and it ruffled in her palms. She batted dark eyes behind amber shades and smiled red painted lips. The clerk at the front desk of Serenity Bank gulped at the beautiful woman, who looked like a supermodel. "Hello, I am a representative from LexCorp. I've been sent to check the security of the CEO'S vault." She said in a high pleasant voice, folding her shades and tossing them into her bag nonchalantly.
"Um, he didn't schedule-" the woman touched his hand that had been typing furiously to find a request for a search. Their eyes met and she grinned with the most trustworthy smile he'd ever seen.
"Yes, Mr. Luthor would like to make sure the vault is secure before he leaves to meet the ambassador for Japan." The clerk made an unsure face. "You can watch me, if you want, it'll only take a second, trust me." That was it. The clerk nodded and told another employee to take his place for a sec.
He led her down the tinted hallway to a back room. There he let her investigate the vault for a while and she turned to him. "Thank you this vault seems to be very secure, I'll tell Mr. Luthor that he's worry free." As she passed him she jabbed him in the chest with a tazer from her bag. The young man's body went into a series of convulsions before falling to the ground, twitching, unconscious. The woman smirked and took off her wig and wiped her face of her make up and took out her contacts, revealing her to be none other than Dawn.
Dawn put on latex gloves and closed the room door, moving the table and chair that was to the right of the room, in front of the door so that no one with a normal amount of strength could come in. she plopped her bag down on the ground and took out ten gadgets and a webcam and laptop. She peered around the room and caught the security camera at the corner of one wall. She put her hand out towards it and it burst into flames.
She then set up the laptop and set the web cam. She scrolled around and clicked the little icon and a window with Estell and Cory's face in it popped up. "Hey that was faster than I thought." Cory complemented and Dawn's face went a bit pink. "Any ways here's the harder part. Breaking the vault, but I'm sure you can do it."
"Okay, just tell me what to do." Estell nodded, instructing her where to put what around the safe and how to set it up, until the gadgets were just right.
"Now push the green switch on the console…" Dawn obeyed and there was a series of loud clacks and bangs erupting from the vault. Then the front metal door fell to the floor. Dawn blinked wondering how they learned to break open a safe vault so easily and with so little sound. "Okay, just throw the money in the bag and leave the comp and webcam." Dawn raised an eyebrow glancing at her. "It's fine, I created a virus that will destroy the contents and batteries of any device that may try to worm it's way on before shutting it down completely." Dawn nodded as if she had any idea what that all meant and threw all the stacks of dough and disabled security cam (just in case it had stored any evidence of her identity)into her bag and re-shifted herself into the LexCorp representative again, the gloves going into her bag of wonders as well.
She smiled at the other clerks coolly as she exited the bank as if she hadn't just robbed it. She roamed the streets a while, until she slipped into a dark quiet alley where a white van they had stole earlier that week was parked. "And she returns uncaught without injury." Cory's head poked out from the window of the driver's seat. Dawn smirked as she opened the van's back doors dumping the money inside. As she loaded her disguise into the back a hand clamped over her mouth and huge hat was pulled over her head that knocked her out cold. The capturer rolled her into a tube over their shoulder and darted away.
Cory, who happened to glance at the rear-view mirror, could see the figure running off with a startled eye Dawn and she turned her head calmly to Estell. "Hey…" she said and Estell looked at her. "I think someone just kidnapped Dawny." They both looked back as the figure turned around the corner.
"Hmm, you're right." Estell murmured looking back at her. "We should go save her."
"Wanna get ice cream first?" Cory asked putting the key into the ignition and starting up the car.
"Uhhhh, okay."
"Plus, we need to make set up the torch ground for when we do the burn cash vid." Estell nodded in agreement as Cory drove around, searching for the nearest Cold Stone.
Dawn blinked her eyes slowly, her head rocking off her shoulder as she woke up. Light from a quirky-looking chandelier spilled into her brown eyes. She groaned at the throbbing in her mind before she remembered she had been captured by some sneaky individual and she sat up right. Then she realized she was wearing a white monochromatic gown with frilly ruffles that flowed around her knees. Her long hair was in pony-tails and she was seated at a round table with six seats around it.
There in two of the chairs sat a man with big teeth and a huge purple hat and a girl a little younger than her in a cuter white dress wearing a pair of white bunny ears. She had curly short blond hair and sky blue eyes. "She's awake!" she announced with a sip of what Dawn assumed was tea. "Hello!"
"Uh, hi?" Dawn answered confused by the cute smile on the girl's face. "Who are you, and why…did you kidnap me?" The girl pouted and turned to the man in the hat.
"I told you we should have sent invitations!"
"Do you think they would have came?"
"Uncle J, said they were fun, so of course they would have." Dawn blinked and raised an eyebrow and the two others looked at her, the girl smiling again. "I'm Bunny and this is Hatter. Nice to meet you." she raised her cup of tea to Dawn and Dawn took a second before clinging the cup of tea in front of her to Bunny's cup. "What's your name?"
"Ummmm." Dawn hesitated, she didn't have on her suit, these two knew her real identity. She sighed, it didn't matter, the Mad Hatter was a villain anyways and a friend of 'Uncle J' whom she guessed was Joker. "Dawn." Bunny laughed and offered her a basket of sweets and finger salad-sandwiches.
"They're really good. Mandy's a great cook." Dawn blinked again staring at the childish face, which was cuter then her own. She, finding it impossible to refuse, grabbed one dark pastry and plopped it in her mouth. her mouth gaped open at how delicious it was. She quickly grabbed more and Bunny clapped her hands giggling. "I tooooold you!" she sang.
"So, uh, I hope you know, my friends might bust into here thinking I'm in trouble…" the two people she was addressing blinked at each other and laughed again. Dawn raised an eyebrow. okay they're laughing…again?
"That's why we brought extra seats, you silly Billy." Bunny wiggled her finger in Dawn's face giggling.
"This is a tea party for them as well. The more the merrier! Now relax have your tea until your friends arri-" there was a loud explosion and pieces of wall and building residue scattered over the Hatter's head. "Oh, wow, that was faster than I thought." They turned to see two woman and a man emerge from the cloud of smoke. Cory and Estell smiled at them, while eating bowls of vanilla ice cream, Rev looking at them with a raised eyebrow. "Hello there."
"Hey, it's the Mad Hatter!" Cory exclaimed in between bites of ice cream. Estell shrugged not really knowing who that was. "Eh, why'd you take Dawny?" Bunny stood up with a huge smile.
"For a tea party! You're invited too." Cory and Estell exchanged looks before grinning. They approached the table without hesitation while Rev waddled slowly behind them taking a cautious seat. "I'm Bunny!" Bunny extended a hand to the girls who both shook it at the same time.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Cory and this is my sissy, Estell. The sore thumb there is Rev." the table glanced at the young man who was trying to fade into the back round. Why did he have to be in a room with a psychopath who was obsessed with a children's novel? "Don't you gotta a real name? Bunny's to formal for a tea party." The girl gasped and nodded.
"So, true! I'm Emmy and this is Jarvy." Cory patted Emmy's head.
"Cute." She cooed before continuing to eat her ice cream.
"Hey, where'd you get that from?" Dawn asked with a frown. Cory blinked and a smirk came to Estell's face.
"Cold Stone, we got you a bowl too but-"
"Rev ate it!" Cory exclaimed cutting her off. Dawn glared at Rev who made a disagreeing face.
"No I didn't you did, Cory!" All eyes were on Cory now.
"Nooooooo." She lied closing her eyes. Dawn glared and threw a finger sandwich at her face. Cory smiled at her with a sly look on her face. "Your pretty bold, Girly."
"Says the glutton who ate my ice cream."
"Them's fight'in words." Cory ejaculated pummeling the teen with cakes. Pretty soon Estell, Emmy, and the Hatter joined in, caking and bombarding one another with potato-salad. Rev gawked at them. am I the only one with some sense? He thought before realizing how boring sense was. He scooped a handful of chocolate cake and chucked it forward. He hadn't meant for it to hit all four girls in the face. They blinked before grins spread across their lips. "Rever, Rever, Rever." Cory started.
"Big mistake." Estell finished as Dawn smoked a plate of sandwiches and handed them to each girl.
"Best tea party ever!" Emmy laughed as they approached a now trembling Rev.
