Idouble checked and I still don't own Static Shock.

Good N' Evil

Ellie didn't know what she was going to do. There were criminals in her house. If for any reason the cops came she would be screwed. Seeing the expression of confusion and panic Shiv began juggling knives.

"Do you always get that expressive while you're thinking?"

She broke free from here trance for a moment. "I guess it comes with the work I do. The more expressive I am in thought the better the outcome"

Talon entered the room. "He's still asleep; man it's weird to see him quiet."

"Sam told me he was rather loud. I mean when you go around causing chaos like that you its unlikely you would be quiet."Ellie did you draw these?"

He held the book open to a picture of Static and Gear fighting Ebon. At first glance it looked like a photo. After studying the lines and colors however; you could see it was a detailed drawing completed with oil pastels.

"I dabble in art when I'm bored."

Theresa looked at the drawing. "It reminds me of the art style in all of the comics Francis keeps in his bag."

Ellie glanced over at her. "What comics?"

"Some comic full of blood and guts, he's obsessed with them."

"Where are they now?"

"In the other room, But you seem to have quite the collection of them yourself."

She pulled one of the comics from Ellie's bookshelf. The comic was laminated and brightly colored." The front cover was filled top to bottom with a scene from an epic battle. On one side were two gruesome looking creatures, wielding weaponry of a monstrous size. On the opposite was a devilish looking young woman tossing flames at her opponents.

"I've seen that before, just not those characters." Sam flipped back in the sketch book. Sure enough there was a picture of two cops attempting to apprehend a hostile Hotstreak.

"Ellie this writer copied your work. This Miss Mina Bitch stole your design"

Laughter escaped from her smile "Oh yes let's sue this Miss Mina writer who looks oddly like me and draws exactly the same."

She tossed the comic to him and directed him to the back. A picture of her was evenly placed on the center above reviews and contact listings.

"Next time ask before you call someone a bitch."

He turned a bright red and sank back down in the chair. Suddenly they heard a crashing in the other room. Francis woke up and clearly wasn't happy.

"Did that little fuck rat me out!?" He was trying to get out of the bed as Ellie came into the room.

He glared at her as she came closer. "Who the hell are you?!"

"I'm Ellie, Sam's sister."

"Who?"

"Shiv"

"So why am I here?"

She picked up a glass that had fallen off the side table. "You were pretty sick when they brought you here last night. I had a friend of mine check you out last night."

"So when are you telling the police we're here?"

"I'm not. I wouldn't snitch on my big brother and his friends."

"We're not really friends. I just hang with them so I have somewhere to crash."

He placed his arm behind his head. "I don't really have friends, not much time for that." Ellie looked at her watch for a moment. "My friend Keith said he'd check back in a bit after work."

Francis rolled his eyes. He wasn't in a hospital but still he felt like it. Deep down he knew Keith was a doctor, a small part of the hospitals make up which he hated.

Keith arrived almost an hour later. He pulled Ellie aside spoke with her and left. She looked over Francis and smiled. "Is he planning to come back?" Francis inquired watching her come in.

"No he gave me some information about you and that's it. Unless someone is deathly ill that'll be the last you see of him."

Francis was a bit worried now. She knew things about Francis that could make him look weak. "Well what did her say? I mean he was probably just telling you I had a cold or flu or something right?"

Her smile briefly disappeared. "He said until he gets clearance from his boss hw can't tell me a thing."

"Really? "

"No silly he said you Adrenal Insufficiency."

He frowned "What the hell does that mean?"

"It means your body has a problem producing chemicals you need."

"Oh. So can I go now?"

She taped him on the head. "No you're staying here for the time being."

He formed a small fireball in his hand a tossed at her shoulder. "I don't want to stay here."

"Well that's too bad." She put out the small fire and turned. "If it gets any worse I can't do much so pray it gets better fast."

"I will then I don't have to look at your ugly face again."

Both tempers rose as Ellie slammed the door shut. This was going to be fun.

Message from the author: It's finally up! Lookie there. It only too k a week of clowning around watching random videos on YouTube to make it happen. I won't tell you in this one when the next chapter will be up as I don't know due to my extended brain farts. Off to math now, perhaps I'll find something new to write about.
