This wasn't the plan. This wasn't according to his plan. This was never a part of his plan.
Just what was this angel doing?
Blaine watched as the officers scrambled into his trap, a smug grin forming. Fixing his loose black tie, he dropped down from his high perch on the ceiling. As he walked to his captives, he placed a mask on his face, one of a fox. "Tut tut, men. Can't catch me still, and someone, once again, is dead. You really need to learn when you can't win." He pulled a switchblade. "The Yard won't find me because they're not very keen." Who's head would fall first? His gloved hand pointed to them, all jumbled up in the net, and behind his facade, he smirked.
"They don't notice the sly creature in their midst, manipulating them like a puppet master."
Footsteps came faster than Blaine could process then. The sound of her breathing was almost nothing, and her gun was pointed right at him within seconds. Blaine wouldn't have noticed her, had she not shouted, "Put t'weapon down, sir!"
Her voice was so familiar to his ears, and he never expected to hear it behind the mask.
The plan did not involve Lucy Baker. He made sure it never did. Blaine always worked with the Yard to push her away from his crimes. Why was she here? She shouldn't have been here, shoved in like a brave, ignorant warrior into his plans.
Lucy Baker was his innocent angel of the force. He could never hurt her like the others.
"You shouldn't be here." He whispered, tightening his grip on his weapon. While keeping that to himself, he spoke out to her, "Courageous, little rabbit, maybe you should hop back into your burrow. This battlefield is no place for you." He put a hand in his pocket almost nonchalantly.
This must have startled her, because Blaine had to jump out of the way of the bullet she fired.
Blaine had to get out of this somehow. His nerves were getting ahead of his thoughts.
Lucy was not a part of his plan.
He had to abort the plan then. From his pocket, he pulled out a small, dark purple orb, and launched it to the ground, where it impacted with a loud POP! Smoke filled the building and behind the mask, he saw clearly the confused officer Baker.
Without a sound, he grabbed the hanging bundle of policemen and cut the ropes to free them. Blaine, not really caring for their safety, let them all fall, which consisted of them grunting and yowling.
Which, in a chain reaction, made Lucy jump.
Before the fox could begin his sprint away from them, he felt copper and iron stream up his throat.
This brave rabbit was far too nervous for the battlefield.
