It's been 3 months since I met Vee, and all I can say is that in these past few months I have had the best time of my life. Vee provided me with a second life. One that was way more fun, thrilling and dangerous than the first. Y'know what they say with great power comes great irresponsibility. So as you can probably tell… no I'm not a superhero. I'm not that type of girl. Well…not anymore. I'm stronger, faster, more confident than ever before, and it's all thanks to Scorpion. Scorpion, the jewel thief who could do anything and everything she wanted, whenever she wanted. She is me, and I am her.
I was perched atop the British museum, mentally preparing myself for my biggest heist yet. The Pharaoh's gem. A sapphire from ancient Egypt, it is said that whoever owns the gem will have incredible luck especially in love. Although that's not the reason I want it. The sapphire is extremely rare, plus it looks extremely beautiful. Mind you the luck in love could be a nice bonus… ugh what am I saying… just focus Scorpion you got this! Using my retractable blades attached to my wrists via two metal bracelets (one of which being my miraculous) I cut through the museum skylight with ease. Then, I used my whip [which represents a scorpion tale] to lower myself through the recently cut hole and onto the top floor of the building. Dropping to the floor, I used my goggle-like mask to scan the surrounding area for security measures. Stealthily, I made my way to the ancient Egypt exhibit, knocking out a few security guards along the way.
I reached the exhibit within 2 minutes. Perfect timing, the guard was just leaving to check on the other exhibits. Cautiously, I crept over to the gem's case… my eyes fixed on the royal blue rock. Then, 2 metres from the gem… I stopped. Great… They just had to install one of these... The moonlight shining in from the window illuminated the pressure triggering security system around the gem. I'm gonna have to be smart to get around this one… I scanned the room using my goggles to try and find a solution to my dilemma. I spotted a little switch located on the sarcophagus of one of the mummies. Pressing it resulted in a slight whirring sound as the trap deactivated. Gotcha! I quickly ran over to the case and sliced it open with my blades. So close! This was it! The gem, it's mine! Taking it into my latex covered hands, I admired my prize with a smirk on my face. "Too easy…" I said mockingly. Then…
*Flick* The lights! They came on!
"That's what you think, Scorpion…"
[A/N: Hey guys so… I'm sorry this one came a day late, my internet went down and I couldn't upload so plz forgive meh! Although I think it kinda added some tension to the story… Anyways, for those of you wondering about the different miraculous' in my story and the abilities of the heroes/villains then I will be posting a story explaining the abilities of each character and a little background into their lives… Well, 'til next time, cya round!]
