"The Hostel"
Bronson Canyon, California
5:22 P.M
"How the hell did I not sense you assbags!" Miracle shouted as she pulled away from Lucy In The Sky.
"Adamnatium badges." Flores answered as he tapped the top of his gun to his badge. "Right where our hearts are. Your mother told us it was a bit of a weakness of yours."
"Motherfuckers." Miracle growled.
"This is such bull!" Talkback cried. "You guys can't find Saddam but you can find us!"
"We found Saddam months ago, genius." Flores answered. "And the military would have found them faster if they had an inside format as good as ours."
"What?" Miracle growled; her eyes shifting between Predator and Alex.
"What are you talking about?" Sister Grimm exclaimed.
"Oh, you didn't know?" Flores teased.
"Obviously not, you Dingus!" Miracle snapped.
Flores frowned. "Well, turns out, one of you kiddies is working for us. One of you called and left us a little tip on where to find your club house. But that's something we can work out downtown."
"Like Hell!" Predator rejected.
"What about the…Lizard?" One of the Swat members asked.
"Kill it." Flores smirked.
"NO!" Arsenic cried. Old Lace shouted as well. The swat members; thinking that she was going to attack; open fired.
"Get back!" Miracle warned as she pushed her hands out; stopping the bullets in mid-air with her Telekinesis.
"How long can you hold that, Trini?" Alex asked.
"Not that long! My Telekinesis is undeveloped! I can hold only the bullets but that's-." A bullet got past Miracle and shot her in the knee. She yelped and fell backwards; Predator catching her. The bullets fell to the floor.
"Chase! Throw up some suppressive fire!" Alex ordered.
"I have no idea what that means…" Talkback ran forward and threw his gloves out; fire protruding. "But this is for Rodney King Ya'll!" The fire created a large chain link fence that blocked the Swat team from the group of kids.
"We need to find a way out!" Predator shouted as he picked Miracle up bridal style.
"There is no other way out!" Miracle cried.
"No way, Nico, you think you could Zap us out of here?" Alex asked.
"Sorry, handsome, I already teleported myself before. And the Staff Of One really hates to repeat itself." Sister Grimm stated.
"Trini, can't you teleport?" Alex turned to her.
"I don't know how to do that yet and my leg-surprisingly-isn't healing correctly." Miracle watched as her knee was slowly but surely healing around the bullet. "Fuck."
"Well then," Sister Grimm pulled her Staff forward. "Let's see what I got up my sleeve. Rock And Roll."
The place began to rumble and The whole place began to tremble immensely; the rubble falling to the ground. Most of them smashing on to the Swat members who were trying to get out. The team looked and glared at Sister Grimm who smiled sheepishly.
"What the hell did you do to my hideout, Teen Witch!" Talkback cried.
"I'm sorry, Chase." Sister Grimm apologized. "I just wanted a little tremor! I can't shut it off!"
"Uh, gang!" Arsenic shouted. "Is it me, or is the ceiling caving in?" True to her words, the rubble was crashing down towards the group.
Everyone gasped…
"Huh," Alex said as the lights suddenly went on, "I guess that works, too." The group looked up to see Lucy In The Sky lit up and protecting the group from the rest of the group from the rubble.
"We're…We're alive?" Sister Grimm gawked as she looked at Lucy.
"Yeah, awesome." Miracle growled; trying to heal her knee.
"I wonder what's worse?" Arsenic asked. "Being crushed to death or Asphyxiating to death?"
"Seriously," Predator agreed, "how the hell are we gonna get out of here?"
Bruiser sniffled; a tear sliding down her cheek. "This place was so cool. Now it stinks." She hugged her knees. "I left my old house and now I have to leave this one, too!" She swung back and smashed her fist into the wall.
"Bruiser! You think you can punch us a way out!" Arsenic suggested.
"My Codename's not Bruiser!" She turned around and smashed at the wall. "It's Princess Powerful!"
"Uh, great…Princess. But do you even know where you're going?" Alex cocked a brow.
"Don't worry, bro. X-ray specs, remember?" Talkback placed the goggles over his eyes. "There's a clearing on the other side of Griffith Park. About twenty Molly-sized upper-cuts thattway!"
"The Hollywood's sign there, too." Miracle peered forward. "I think I have X-ray vision, too. But I can't be so sure."
"If you can see the Hollywood sign, there's a slight chance you have it." Predator joked as he picked Miracle up.
"You don't need to carry me." Miracle growled. "My leg is healing."
"Yeah, slowly."
"Yeah, but I don't want you to get a boner off of the smell of my blood and start trying to eat me."
Predator laughed. "Relax, I don't get all crazy like in the vampire movies. Blood doesn't bother me at all." He smirked. "Unless it's, of course, mutant blood."
Bruiser and the group stopped and looked back at him.
He gave the group a sheepish smile. "I'm joking."
Los Angeles, California
7:01 P.M.
"Told you the Hollywood sign is here." Miracle gloated as Predator put her down in the grass.
"Why isn't your leg healing right? A week ago you broke your arm and popped it right back into place and it was perfectly fine. Now, you knee is taking forever for it to heal." Predator pointed at her bleeding knee that was slowly but surely healing.
"I-I don't know." She shook her head. "It's probably-."
"We should build out base here!" Talkback shouted loudly.
"Not so fast, Dr. Evil." Arsenic stated. "This place might be gated, but in a couple of hours they'll be searching this place for teenagers making out."
"Or running from the law." Miracle added.
"Well then what are we supposed to do?" Talkback snapped. "The Avengers never came for us and the freakin' cops aren't gonna help us, that's for sure! As long as our parents run Los Angeles, we have to stay on the downlow!"
"So why don't you guys take the fight to them?" Predator asked. "I mean, why keep running? Cloak and Dagger obviously left us to fend for ourselves so why not go after the Pride ourselves?"
"You, new kid." Talkback pointed. "You don't get to talk."
"No, he's right." Sister Grimm agreed. "We should take the fight to them."
"All twelve of them?" Lucy In The Sky gawked. "Nico, we barely lived a fight between three of our parents!"
"That was weeks ago. Before we survived a bunch of vampires, two superheroes, and a swat team." Sister Grimm stated.
"Yeah," Alex nodded. "Survived. Not defeated." He paused. "I mean, we're better than we used to be, but we don't have what it takes to win the game yet."
"Says who!" Miracle snapped. "We have their play book!"
"And a coach who knows how to read it!" Sister Grimm agreed. "We can use the Abstract to find out when our parents' guards are down. Then we can hit them when they least expect it!"
"But…what about the detective?" Alex blinked. "He said one of us is working for the Pride."
The group shot a look at Predator. Miracle put her hand in front of his face. "Don't even start throwing you comments around." Miracle deadpanned. "Jake was with me the entire time he was with the group. He hasn't even left the Hostel after that whole ordeal with Cloak and Dagger."
"But he's the one who's telling us to bring the fight to our parents! How do we know he's not leading us into a trap!" Arsenic accused.
"I agreed!" Sister Grimm jerked forward.
"Then you're both rats!" Talkback accused.
"Guys! Settle down!" Lucy cried. "Flores probably said that to get us to start fighting! Don't you see?"
"I think Karolina's the rat." Talkback muttered.
"Seconded." Arsenic agreed.
"Call me whatever you want." Lucy said as she walked up to Sister Grimm and put an arm around her. "But I say we go with their plan. I'd rather die than play Anne Frank for the rest of my life." She then turned to everyone. "So who's with us?"
"I'm ready." Miracle motioned to stand up, only to yelp in pain and fall right back down into the grass.
"Whoa there, Spongebob. I think you're far from ready." Predator stated as he leaned down to help Miracle.
"No, I'm fine. It's just…I think I found my Achilles' heal." She groaned as she placed her hand on her knee. "My knees always been fucked up since birth. That's probably why it's taking so long to heal."
"Are you gonna be able to come with us or…?" Lucy asked.
"I'll be fine. As long as Nosferatu here doesn't mind carrying me." Miracle groaned.
"I don't." Predator shook his head as he squatted down in front of her so she could climb on his back.
"I guess you guys want me to stay with the sleeping dwarf?" Arsenic looked back at Bruiser, who was sleeping soundly with Old Lace.
"No offence, Gert, but what if you're the traitor?" Sister Grimm pointed. "Molly's no safer alone, than with us."
"Molly's proved that she can defend herself…well, after a good nap, that is." Lucy shrugged.
"Are you kidding?" Alex turned to Sister Grimm. "We can't take Molly, she's just a kid!"
"If you haven't noticed, Alex," Miracle said from Predator's back, "so are we. And if we don't face our parents together and end this, none of us will be getting any older."
