Chapter 41: A Clone, A Siren & A Mother

Post by Trackman281 »

Please note! that this is PART ONE of this chapter. :D

For those as well who might think I've done a bit of a 180 with Ulla's personality in this chapter, I highly advice you to pay very close attention to two very specific scenes Ulla is in, because as you'll see, she's revealing a lot about her character and she's revealing a lot about her mindset. ;)

I do also want to thank Rufusluciusivan who very kindly offered me some assistance with getting the white masks personalities correct, thank you. :D

CHAPTER 41: A CLONE, A SIREN & A MOTHER

As the early morning sun glistens across the city, Mag is the first of the sisters to wake. She climbs out of her sleeping bag and very carefully peeks through the hotel rooms curtains with her back firmly pressed against the wall. Once she confirms it’s all clear, she relaxes before she fills up a kettle and switches it on to make herself a mug of morning tea. The rest of the sisters one by one wake up, as Tina herself climbs out of her sleeping bag, she notices Mag rubbing her eyes as she sits on top of the hotel rooms table. The kettle clicks to say it’s ready, but before Mag can grab the handle, Tina beats her to it and grasps hold of the kettle.

“Here, let me do this for you.” Tina says as she pops a teabag into the mug before filling it up with water.

“Thanks sis.” Mag replies with a yawn.

“How did you sleep?” Tina asks as she pours some milk and sugar into Mag’s cup. Tina knows how each of her sisters like their teas and coffees. She knows how much milk and how much sugar for each of them. She then passes the mug to Mag and she gently takes a sip of it.

“Perfect again.” Mag says, thanking Tina for making her tea, just the way she likes it.

“You haven’t answered my question.” Tina says as she props herself next to her sister. Mag swirls her tea in her mug, before she looks at Tina.

“Not well.” Mag now admits.

“They why didn’t you wake me? I would of more than happily sat with you.” Tina replies with a warm smile.

“I know you would have, but then I would have felt guilty for waking you, so it’s fine.” Mag takes another sip of her tea.

“Don’t worry. We’re safe here.” Tina says. She knows that Mag is stressing out about the safety of her sisters, so she’s trying to reassure her that they are indeed safe in the hotel there staying at.

“I know we are. But I just can’t shake the damn feeling, that we might get attacked again at any moment. I just need to be on alert.” Mag admits.

“Hey, come here.” Tina wraps her arm around Mag’s shoulder and gently leans her in, so Mag’s head in now resting on Tina’s shoulder. “Do you really think that anyone would be able to get close to you or our sisters with me around? I’d make them pay dearly if I thought anyone was going to lay a single finger on you.” Tina says with a warm tone.

“I just want to keep our family safe, that’s all.” Mag takes another sip of her tea. “The white masks, Kuebiko, the Phantoms….All people who want to hurt us for no reason. We never even did anything to any of them, yet here they are all the same. Blaming us for everything wrong with their lives.”

Tina watches as she sees Mag frown in both anger and annoyance.

“It makes me feel sick at times.” Mag places her mug down on the table.

Tina can see it in Mag’s eyes. Everything was indeed starting to get on Mag’s nerves and a lot of it was true. Most, if not all of the time. Tina and her sisters genuinely hadn’t done anything wrong to the people who were targeting them. Both Tina and Mag just wanted to protect each other and protect their other sisters / family. Tina holds Mag close to her, hoping to let her see that everything will be fine.

“I think I just heard Stasis brush her teeth, that means it won’t be long before she’s itching to get to the breakfast table. So come on, how about we go downstairs and have a nice meal together.” Tina replies.

Mag looks at Tina and smiles at her before she finishes her mug of tea. The hotel’s restaurant was thankfully large enough so the sisters could easily find a table and sit together. Naturally Stasis went straight for the bacon, eggs and sausages, whilst the rest of the sisters went for the lighter, more healthier options, such as fruit, cereal and even yoghurt. BB takes a bite out of her toast before she closes the book that Kheshig gave her, she then takes a sip of pink grapefruit juice.

“So, if these texts are anything to go by, then Kheshig wasn’t lying.” BB wipes her mouth with a serviette. “The Phantoms were indeed soldiers of honour once upon a time and not those blood thirsty maniacs that we’re seeing today.” BB concludes.

“But even if Kheshig is telling the truth and she does want to overthrow the Prophet to become their new leader. Who’s to say she wouldn’t resume her campaign against us?” Soph wonders as she puts a spoonful of cereal into her mouth.

“Because, we haven’t done anything wrong. Look, hear me out.” The sisters all give BB their full attention. “As we all know, infiltrators exist all over. I mean hell, there’s even governments out there who hire them as mercenaries and that’s fine. But every now and then, sometimes an infiltrator becomes addicted to infiltrating. She constantly steals women’s clothes as it gives her a kind of rush of superiority and kind of an…..Alpha, like mentality.” BB explains.

“Sounds a lot like Knipperen.” Marie adds.

“Exactly. These are women who have become so addicted to stealing uniforms, that they just now see women as nothing more than a doner. Well, if it came to light that these certain individuals were becoming like this and were even going around harming innocent women, then the Phantoms would be around to bring them to justice……Now I mean actual justice. It states here that Phantoms would only kill an infiltrator if the situation deemed it necessary, apart from that, all measures must be taken to assure that the individual their going after, gets arrested and be given a fair trial.” BB explains.

“Someone should tell that to these Phantoms then.” Mag replies to BB’s statement.

“Well that’s just it. Whoever this so-called Prophet is, is corrupting the Phantoms from the inside and launching her own private vendetta against infiltrators or anyone who considers themselves to be one.” BB finishes.

“Okay, so we find out who the Prophet really is and take it from there?” Marie ponders.

“But how do we do that? Even Kheshig herself doesn’t know who the Prophet is, and I doubt even their most loyal of soldiers such as Jetset don’t even know her real identity.” Angel points out.

“I wouldn’t worry about that, as the tracker had stopped at an unmapped location a few hours ago and it hasn’t moved since.” Tinker says as she types away at her laptop.

“So is that? Are going after them?” Soph asks, getting somewhat excited about the idea of punching a Phantoms lights out.

“Not yet, if we just go straight at them like that, we’d probably be doing more harm than good, plus Blink’s daughter is somewhere in there.” Tina adds.

“Well right now, the Phantoms are more concerned with Ulla, or the Siren as they keep calling her, as I’m seeing several Phantom threads of outposts being either evacuated or completely wiped out and all the Phantoms comm chatter are saying the same thing.” Tinker spins her laptop around for the rest of her sisters to see. “They are all saying that the Siren is doing this.” Tinker states.

“What’s Ulla’s motivation behind all of this? She isn’t a bad woman; she’s just trying to find purpose in this world.” Angel says as she remembers full well her first encounter with Ulla and the crows.

“Maybe Anna has something that she’s using against her, so maybe Ulla genuinely doesn’t have a choice.” BB states.

“We’ll figure that out later, before we work out how to infiltrate the Phantoms main headquarters, I say we do some digging and find out just who the Phantoms have partnered themselves up with.” Tina announces.

“How do you want to do that?” Marie asks.

“We start at the source. We saw Jetset get that shipment of supplies from the docks and if you remember. When we first encountered Kheshig in that warehouse a little while back, she was protecting a shipping container filled with the same equipment as the one’s Jetset was sent to retrieve. Which clearly indicates that whoever is supplying the Phantoms with equipment, is not a native to Heartfelt City.” Tina deduces.

“Sounds logical to me.” Tinker replies.

“So here’s what we’re going to do. BB and Angel, you two are coming with me to the port and we’re going to see what we can find. I want the rest of you to please go back up to the hotel room and wait for us to return.” Tina instructs.

“You’re not leaving without these.” Tinker passes BB, Angel and Tina their hidden cameras and their hidden microphones, so she can update them, should the situation call for it.

“Thanks sis.” Tina says as she clips her on. “Please keep the do not disturb sign on the door and don’t open it for anyone.” Tina carries on.

“Hey, can I open it for Amai and Midori?” Stasis suddenly says.

“But why? You’ve just had breakfast?” Tina asks in slight confusion.

“Yeah, but they were telling me of how a new doughnut shop has opened up and I want them to bring me over a baker’s dozen.” Stasis replies with excitement.

“Fine, but make sure you pay them.” Tina rebuffs.

“Of course I will, they maybe my sidekicks, but I don’t leech off of them, I’ll pay them in full, you have my word.” Stasis replies as she quickly texts Amai, putting in her doughnut order.

With that the sisters leave the hotel dining room. BB grabs her gloves, Angel grabs her dart gun and Tina fills a bag with supplies, after that Tina, Angel and BB get changed into catsuits before leaving the hotel and making their way to the docks.

*************************************************************************************************************************************

A vehicle pulls up outside outpost Zeta, where Elisha puts some handcuffs on Blink. As there walking to the outposts main entrance, Blink is remaining calm as she knows that somewhere hidden amongst the treeline, Knipperen is watching closely.

Inside the outpost itself, the white masks are hard at work at their respective computers, although for different reasons. Magda is hunting high and low, leaving zero stones unturned as she hunts for the nine sisters. Willow is trying to find any hints systems being hacked into, although she’s hiding from the Phantoms just how much a good jacker she herself is, just in case they try to exploit her. Cassie is deliberately doing her job very slowly as she doesn’t want any conflicts with anyone. Ellie is getting chummy with some of the Phantoms and one point she even shared a sickening laugh with Jetset which made the other white masks look in concern at Ellie’s new sickening sense of humour. Louette is trying to find the sisters, just so she can give them outpost Zeta’s location, Louette is secretly worrying for her friends safety and she’s trying to get them out of their situation.

Moments later though the door opens, and Elisha walks in with Blink firmly locked in cuffs. By this point, Jetset has already left as she was needed elsewhere. It doesn’t take long for Louette’s eyes to meet Blinks and both women stair at each other with pale faces.

“You never told me the white masks were with you!” Blink loudly whisper in Elisha’s ear.

“I swear, I didn’t know! They must have only just been recruited because they weren’t here the other day.” Elisha loudly whispers back.

“WELL, well, well! Check it out girls, we’ve only been here less than a day and already, Blink is here firmly in cuffs where she belongs!” Ellie shouts after seeing Blink.

“Remember me Blink? Because I certainly remember you!” Magda says getting into Blink’s face.

“Back off vultures! She’ MY prize!” Elisha says, shoving Magda back as hard as she could, to keep up appearances.

“Oh, come on, we’re all on the same team here, perhaps we could share?” Ellie suggests staring daggers at Blink.

“Go get your own claim, Blink’s MINE and I intend to reap the rewards for her capture.” Elisha quickly shoves Ellie and escorts Blink into a holding room.

Once inside Elisha slams the door shut and sits Blink down on a chair, where she swiftly handcuffs Blinks ankles to the chair legs themselves. Elisha then pulls out her dagger and places it in Blink’s hand. Thankfully because Blink is still wearing the biker’s outfit she stole earlier, it’s easy for her slip it up her sleeve.

“Thanks.” Blink says in relief that she at least as some method to defend herself.

“We know all about the white masks and I know what they intended to do with you, so I can’t leave you unarmed. Look, I’ll be as quick as I can, I promise!” Elisha states.

“Don’t be too long, I don’t exactly feel comfortable being offered as a slab of meat to those white mask freaks.” Blink states.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure they can’t get in.” Elisha says as she leaves the room. Once she leaves the room she stands in the centre and clears her throat.

“I’m going to go and get the Prophet as I’ve been informed that she wants to see Blink herself, I’ve also beem informed that the noble Prophet wants Blink unharmed, so if I get back and find even a single scratch on her, I assure you, I’ll be holding you ALL accountable, am I understood?” Elisha announces.

“Yes! Yes, don’t worry, we won’t even go in there.” Cassie quickly shouts out as she doesn’t want any confrontation.

Elisha nods and walks out the room, she makes her way out of the outpost and climbs back into her vehicle. When she’s in she turns on the engine and pulls out her phone. She dials a number and removes her helmet before holding the phone against her ear.

“Hello.” A voice is heard on the line.

“Hi sweetie, it’s me.” Elisha says over the phone.

“Hey babe, how’s the conference in Germany going?” Felicity replies and it turns out she still has no idea that Elisha is a Phantom.

“Eermm, yeah, yeah, it’s going great.” But as she says this, she starts to tear up and Felicity hears her sniff down the line.

“Honey……..What’s wrong?” Felicity asks.

“I can’t do this anymore babe. I miss you so much, I just…..I just can’t do this job anymore……I’m at my wits end and I want to come home.” Elisha holds her free hand over face in despair.

“Then come home! Come on honey, come home to me, I’m waiting for you, we can find you a different job closer to home, how does that sound?” Felicity replies.

“I need to, I just can’t take this anymore. I thought I could do this job, but I can’t….I just can’t.” Elisha sobs down the phone.

“Now you listen to me you big, beautiful woman! I believe in you, I have so much faith and confidence in you. I know you can do ANYTHING, I love you so much, so please. Do what you need to do then just come home to me, so I can hold you in arms and smother you with kisses all night long.” Felicity says as she herself is tearing up on the other end of the phone.

“Thank you darling. You’re the only one who’s ever had any confidence in me…….I will……As soon as I’m finished here, I am coming home to you and screw this, I’m looking for a new job.” Elisha wipes her eyes.

“I’m waiting for you. Please be safe and please come back to me safely. Remember how much you mean to me.” Felicity replies.

“And you better remember just how much you mean to me too. I love you sweetie and I’ll see you soon.” Elisha says with a cheerier tone of voice. Felicity and Elisha then share some kisses over the phone before they hang up. Elisha then dries her eyes and blows her nose before she puts her helmet back on. She then sits back in her seat and remembers the stories of what Felicity told her of how Tina saved her life.

“This isn’t right.” Elisha says to herself in the mirror. “Tina. You saved the love of my life not once, but twice. I don’t care how long it takes, I WILL protect you and I WILL protect your sisters from the Prophet and her insane views, I promise.” Elisha then clips her seatbelt on and releases the handbrake.

Outpost zeta wasn’t exactly an ordinary outpost as about a mile or two from it, lurked a gigantic underground tunnel, that currently no longer saw any use. This tunnel travelled all the way to and from the Phantoms main HQ so this is how the Phantoms were shifting their supplies without being noticed. Elisha drove down the road until she found the tunnel, after she was cleared at the main gate by a Phantom guarding the entrance, she sped off down and through the tunnel, with every intention of making everything right.

**********************************************************************************************************************************

At Heartfelt’s dock itself Angel, BB and Tina perform a quick check with Tinker to make sure that their equipment such as their microphones and cameras are working properly before they sneak inside. Their first port of call will be to infiltrate the main office and see if they can gather any useful information from there, such as shipping manifests or maybe some invoices.

The sisters make their way past several lines of different columns of shipping containers when at last an opportunity presents itself. Two female dock workers are currently making their rounds as they inspect several containers. They are both wearing baggy orange high vis trousers, black steel toed boots, baggy orange high vis jackets, a dark grey shirt underneath and white hard hats.

The first woman has tanned skin, she’s 27 years of age, she has shoulder to back length black hair, light brown eyes and her ID tag on her jacket reads “Thea”.

The second woman is 19 years old, she has white skin, shoulder length blonde hair, blue eyes and her ID tag reads “Zara”.

“Okay, so what we do now is go over the shipping numbers of each of the containers arriving to make sure that it matches with what we have on the paperwork.” Thea says to Zara.

“Right, so how do we know where it is?” Zara asks as she looks at some of the shipping listings.

“I’ll show you. Remember, if even a single letter or number doesn’t add up, it means that this is potentially an incorrect shipment.” Thea says as she shows Zara the shipping locks.

BB adjusts the settings on her gloves to the knockout gas dispenser as she sneaks up behind the two unsuspecting dock workers.

“Okay so now we tick this off and head off to the next one. Whhhoopphh!” Thea shouts as a hand is immediately clamped over her face like a face hugger.

“Hey what’s going Ooommmppphhhh!” Zara is next as a second hand also clamps over her face like a face hugger.

Moments later, the gas is released and both Zara and Thea get hit straight in the face with a dosage of knockout gas. The gas is fast acting and quickly swims it way up Thea and Zara’s nose, moments later their legs turn to jelly as they both wobble around before they slump to their knees. BB knows that they are knocked out by this point, so she quickly releases her grasp and grabs both women, preventing them from falling to the ground. BB slings Thea over her left shoulder before she slings Zara over her right shoulder. Due to BB’s sheer size and strength, lifting these two average sized and built women is very easy for her and she doesn’t even break a sweat.

BB carries the two unconscious dock workers over to Angel and Tina who are currently hiding behind a load of crates and barrels that are awaiting to be despatched. As BB lays the two women down, Angel and Tina get to work in stripping them.

“Hey, do you think it was a good idea to have me tag along for this part?” BB asks. To which both Angel and Tina look at each other.

“Why, what’s the matter?” Tina asks as she pulls of Thea’s boots.

“Well, I can already tell you for starters, that neither of these women’s clothes will fit me and I very much doubt that any of the other women working here will fit me either. I don’t know, it just feels like I might be a bit of a hinderance here.” BB says whilst rubbing her arm in embarrassment.

“Hey, come on, don’t say things like that, so their clothes might be a little bit tight on you, who cares. If anyone stares at you, then screw them, let them stare at you. Because at the end of the day, they are all just jealous.” Angel says as she pulls of Zara’s trousers.

“Angel’s right. All those women are just staring at you in pure jealousy, they wish they could look as beautiful as you and they wish that they could be as tall and powerful as what you are.” Tina reinforces as she slips off Thea’s jacket.

“Besides, remember what we’re always telling you sis. Who wouldn’t want to wake up next to a tall and gorgeous woman like yourself each and single morning?” Angel further reinforces.

“I know, I just…..Find it hard to believe sometimes.” BB says as she gets embarrassed fairly easily.

Tina smiles before she gives BB a massive sisterly hug.

“Whenever you need reminding of just how beautiful you are and how much you mean to us, you come to me okay and I’ll be more than happy to remind you every single time.” Tina says as she comforts her sister.

“Me too!” Angel says with a smile as she finishes stripping Zara.

“Thank you, sisters.” BB says as she blushes in embarrassment.

Now that both Thea and Zara have been stripped, it is revealed that Thea is wearing a rust orange balconette bra and a pair of peanut brown two side knot Brazilian brief panties. Zara meanwhile is wearing a sky-blue sports bra and a pair of sun yellow boy shorts. Now both women were wearing thick heavy duty grey socks, but they’ve been stripped of those as well, purely for comfort for when the sisters put on their boots.

Next BB props the two ladies back-to-back, while Angel and Tina securing their bodies together by tying several strands of rope around their stomachs and their chests, they then both of women’s arms together so it firmly locks them in place. They secure bonds around their ankles and legs before they finally pull out some fresh cloths and tie them in and around the two ladies mouths as gags. BB then lifts up the two bound beauties and hides them behind a load of drums.

Angel assembles a makeshift umbrella out of one of the sheets she’s brought with her and hangs it above the two sleeping dockworkers. With the sun beaming down as it is, Angel simply doesn’t want the two women to get sun burned.

With them out of the way, Angel gets changed into Zara’s clothes while Tina gets changed into Thea’s clothes. As Angel and Tina walk round the corner in their newly acquired disguises, BB herself hops back up onto the containers and follows closely waiting for a disguise opportunity of her own to come by.

************************************************************************************************************************************

Willow studies a monitor closely, she’s observing one of Falcon’s main drone feeds. The drone itself is currently making its way around Heartfelt. But just as Willow zooms in on the drone feed to observe a building, the monitor suddenly turns to static. Willow looks around to see that all the other monitors have turned to static too. But just before she can say anything, a soft humming noise is heard coming down the intercom and all across everyone’s headsets and monitors. It’s a sweet gentle humming, as if the sweet tunes of a woman whose luring innocent sailors to their doom.

“It can’t be. It’s the siren!” A Phantom calls out as they grab a gun. “You wait here, we’ll handle this!” The same Phantom says as they rush out to join their comrades.

Suddenly the screen turn back on and the white masks turn to their monitors to see that their original feed has been replaced with a live recording of Ulla standing in the outposts hallways with her two Karambit blades…..The white masks watch as several Phantoms descent onto her location, yet the whole time, Ulla is just gently humming away to herself. But when the Phantoms get close, the white masks are unfortunately subjugated to the true danger, that is Ulla. Ulla opens her mouth to sing and rushes straight at the Phantoms.

“I infiltrate your dreams. I am the reason for your adultery. With my concupiscence of the flesh. I will obstruct the venereal act.” She sings softly as she throws herself towards the Phantoms.

Ulla slides along the floor and uses her blades to slice the ankles from two of the Phantoms as she glides past. Both Phantoms drop to their knees in pain, but Ulla just backward rolls and sticks her blades into the sides of their necks, killing both Phantoms.

“I am the cause of your impotence. The reason for infertility. With a touch, a look, or an amulet. Your misery is MY responsibility!” Ulla sings softly.

The remaining Phantoms open fire, but Ulla just leaps into a doorway which circles around behind them. Moments later, she bursts threw the door and without hesitation or warning she snaps one of the Phantoms neck, the fourth Phantom tries to raise their gun, But Ulla just grabs it and headbutts the Phantom staggering them backwards. As they stagger backwards Ulla fire a single bullet which penetrates the Phantoms visor before piercing their skull. Killing them instantly.

“I am a liar by nature. The cause of shipwrecks. Like the song of the sirens. Luring you to sin with my witchcraft!” Ulla sings more loudly now.

A fifth Phantoms runs out of ammunition in their clip and tries to rush Ulla with their own combat knife, but Ulla just tilts her head sideways at this fools so called attack strategy. The Phantoms swings their blade at Ulla, but Ulla just grabs their wrist, twists it until it snaps, before she slams their face into a wall, she then grabs the Phantoms by the back of the heads and uses her own shoulder to swiftly snap their neck. Ulla then picks up the dropped combat knife and hurls it straight at the sixth Phantom which pierces their armour and stabs them through the heart. Ulla knew exactly where she was aiming.

“Oh confess I must. I am driven by weakness and lust. You can blame it all me. Your filthy practises and thoughts” Ulla sings gently.

The final Phantom scans the room, hoping to catch a glimpse of Ulla, but alas all they hear is the sweet melody.

“So confess I must. You can blame it all on me. I AM the cause of all your loss!” She sings so loud that a sense of passive aggressiveness is heard in her tone.

The final Phantom sees a light, just before a single bullet pierces the air and hits them straight in the head. Moments later the seventh Phantom draws their last breath and they fall to the floor. Ulla emerges from the shadows and approaches the computer room.

Inside the room, the white masks are staying together for safety, Louette knows that she’s about to get into a fight so she swiftly removes her helmet and gets ready. Moments later, Ulla bursts into the room like a demonic entity. Although as she does, the white masks couldn’t see it under Ulla’s own mask, but she squints as she realizes Louette’s face.

Louette tries to throw a fist, but Ulla just grabs it. Louette uses all of her strength……But incredibly, Ulla doesn’t budge, nor does she flinch…….Louette is really using all of her force and strength itself, plus she’s using her good wrist, but Ulla just tilts her head sideways as if to say “is that really all you’ve got?” Ulla then takes advantage of Louette’s disbelief before she quickly side steps and grabs her, lifting her up and dropping her straight through a table. Ellie jumps on Ulla’s back, yet Ulla just grabs Ellie by the back of her head and manages to slam her straight to the floor before punching her in the face, knocking her out. Willow picks up a rifle from a rack, but Ulla whips out her pistol and shoots it straight out of Willow’s hand, causing Willow to jump backwards. Louette gets back to her feet only to be greeted by Ulla giving her a roundhouse kick to the side of the head knocking her out.

“I SURRENDER, I SURRENDER!” Cassie pulls off her helmet and gets down to her knees. This isn’t a diversion as she’s genuinely scared for her life.

Magda attempts to rush Ulla from the side, but she is suddenly smacked in the side of the head by the butt end of a sniper rifle. Ulla turns to see Izanagi enter the room, with her gun aimed at Willow, who also puts her hands up.

“Tie them up.” Ulla says.

“We’re not killing these one’s?” Izanagi wonders.

“No……I think I know this group and believe me…..They’re NOT Phantoms.” Ulla replies.

Izanagi gets to work in handcuffing the white mask members and sitting them down on chairs, not long afterwards the four gothic women known as the crows enter the room and take a look around. They salute their captain upon entering then Ulla sits down and waits for Izanagi to finish.

Magda, Louette and Ellie are still out cold. Willow is glaring at them in silent anger and Cassie is shaking like a leaf. Ulla cracks her knuckles before she clicks her neck. She’s going to be having words with the white masks when the rest of them wake up. But before she can, she hears what sounds like a bunch of scraping sounds. Ulla raises her hand in the air for her squad to form up on the doorway. Ulla makes a signal and Izanagi kicks open the door then steps to one side letting Ulla dash in. Inside she’s sees Blink on the chair, using the knife, hoping to somehow cut her way out of her bonds.

“Wait you’re the one they call Blink aren’t you? What are you doing here?” Ulla asks as she yet gains more questions than answers.

************************************************************************************************************************************

A female forklift driver finishes loading a container filled with pallets. She then pulls the forklift back around to the charging station and plugs it in. She then reaches into her pocket and pulls out a pack of cigarettes, then pops one in her mouth, she then leans back against the forklift itself to enjoy a quick smoke break.

She’s 27 years of age, she’s wearing steel toed boots, black cargo trousers, a red and white chequered shirt, with a luminous yellow sleeveless high vis jacket over it as well as a yellow hardhat. She has lightly tanned skin, probably from working outside for most of the day. She has long slightly curled brown hair which is tied back in a ponytail. She has soft green eyes and an ID card clipped to her trousers says her name is “Esme”.

Esme finishes her cigarette and starts wriggling her trousers up. She then sees a disguised Angel and Tina approach her.

“Oh hey, don’t mind me, my trousers feel a little loose, I think they gave me the wrong size or something, because I mean look at this.” Esme stretches out her trousers to show off that they are indeed a size or two too big for her.

“Wow, they do look a little big for you, but I know someone of who those trousers of yours might fit a little better on.” Tina says as she is relieved to find a worker whose clothes are too big for her.

“Oh yeah, who?” But just as Esme says that, BB wraps one hand around Esme’s mouth and wraps her other hand around Esme’s stomach.

She then lifts Esme’s up off the ground itself as all Esme can do is kick her feet around trying to get back down. BB has since activated the chloro setting on her glove and right now Esme is getting it right in the face with a big glug of chloroform. Esme starts to feel faint, plus once again due to BB’s sheer size and strength, she is unable to free herself from BB grasp.

“MMPPHH…..aaaahh……..Uuuummmm.” Esme slowly loses consciousness and passes out right in BB’s arms with her head slumped forwards. Tina walks up to Esme and brushes her fringe of out her face to check to make she is out cold. She then hears Esme very slightly snoring. She then gives BB the thumbs up before she carries her round the back of the forklift itself.

BB lays her on the ground and starts stripping.

“I know we probably wasted a few minutes here, but honestly. Thank you for taking the time to find a woman who’s close to my size.” BB says she pulls off Esme’s trousers with ease.

“it was no problem at all sis, so long as your happy, then I’m happy.” Tina says putting her hand on BB’s shoulder seeing as how BB is bent down.

Once Esme has been stripped, it is revealed that Esme is wearing a lusty pink pair of lace panties and a candy apple red lace bra.

“I’m guessing she has a hot date lined up for tonight after her shift.” Tina says as she notices Esme’s underwear choice.

“Seems like it. Do you want to get changed and I’ll tie her up for you?” Angel says as she gets some bonds ready.

BB gets changed into Esme’s clothes, Tina keeps an eye out in case anyone walks by and wonders what’s going on whilst Angel ties up Esme. Angel uses a series of zip ties to bind Esme’s ankles, legs, wrists and arms together, she then grabs hold of a roll of Tinker’s homemade tape before she peels of a piece and sticks it across Esme’s mouth as a gag. Angel then drags Esme behind a couple of forklift battery stations before she swiftly covers her modesty with a blanket, so at least she’ll have her dignity when she gets discovered.

After that BB steps out in her disguise. The boots are pinching her toes and rubbing her heels, the trousers seem to fit okay, but the top still looks quite tight on her. Both Angel and Tina noticed BB shake her head when she saw that her disguise didn’t fit her properly. Naturally Tina gently squeezes BB’s left hand whilst Angel gently squeezes BB’s right hand.

“I think you look perfect.” Angel says trying to make her sister feel better.

“I don’t exactly look it though.” BB sighs.

“Well that’s a shame you feel that way, because I think you look perfect too.” Tina replies reinforcing Angel’s comment.

“Thank you sisters, but can we do this next part fairly quickly as this woman’s boots are really hurting my feet.” BB says as she tries to walk.

“Yeah sure, come on, let’s get in those offices.” Tina responds.

All three of the sisters then leave the area and start making their way towards the offices, naturally Tina has made mental notes of where they’ve hidden the women, so she can make her usual anonymous calls later so they can be discovered.

*************************************************************************************************************************************

Izanagi cuts the cuffs off Blink before Blink pours her heart and emotions out to Ulla, because of her time in prison, Ulla knows exactly who Blink is and she knows that if there’s one person in this world, Blink will willingly go through hell for, it’s her own daughter Shannon……….

Magda wakes up and tries to move her hands, she wriggles around and soon realizes that both her hands and feet have been cuffed to the chair she’s currently sitting on. She looks around and realizes that she in a separate room from her friends, but she isn’t alone, as both Blink and Ulla are standing right in front of her. Blink is pacing back and forth vigorously biting her nails down to the ends as she fears for her daughter’s safety. Ulla is currently flicking through a data pad which Izanagi dug up for her. It contains all the necessary information on each of the individual white masks.

“Hah! should have known that even the Siren wasn’t beyond helping an infiltrator!” Magda suddenly snaps to.

“I bet you think your funny, don’t you huh? You Phantom filth, if I find out as well that you are one of the Phantoms responsible for Shannon’s abduction, I’ll beat you within an inch of your life!” Blink snaps back.

“What the hell are you on about?” Magda replies.

“Don’t play dumb with me! I know you’ve had it out for me, and you just couldn’t stomach the fact that I beat you last time we met, so you just had to take it one step further didn’t you. You had to abduct a child for your sick little games. Well, I’ve got news for you Phantom filth, you made the biggest mistake of your life, because you didn’t just abduct anyone’s daughter. Oh no, you abducted MY daughter! So I don’t care how long this takes, if I have pull every one of your nails out from your fingers, just to get you to talk, I will. Now where is my daughter!” Blink gets right into Magda’s face.

Magda notices the tears forming in Blink’s eyes, it seems she isn’t lying.

“The white masks stand for freedom and justice! We would never stoop to harming children, you should know that!” Magda replies in defence.

Blink raises her hand to slap her, but Ulla calmly walks over and puts her hand on Blink’s shoulder.

“Please Blink. You haven’t slept in days, nor have you eaten anything or drank anything. Your running on sheer will power alone, if you want to be able to save your daughter, then I highly advice you have something to eat and try to calm down. Here I’ve got a bowl of noodles prepared for you with a bottle of water. Now I know it isn’t much. But please, eat something.” Ulla says.

“You’re not my captain, I don’t need to take orders from you.” Blink replies.

“Then let me talk to you as an ally. It would be in your best interest and your daughter’s best interest if you just sat down and had something to eat and drink.” Ulla calmly replied.

Blink wanted to cry, but she knew Ulla was right and even though it was just a simple bowl of noodles, they did smell good. So Blink politely nodded and sat back down on the table where she picked up some chopsticks and started eating. Ulla then turned her attention back to Magda.

“Your name is Magda Kermalo. It says here you used to be a clerk of the court in Heartfelt, until a run in with an infiltrator cost you….Well everything….You then joined the white masks and ultimately sort out to kill all infiltrators, but of course eventually you came across the nine sisters and well, the rest is history isn’t it. Why don’t you talk to me and tell me what’s going through your mind?” Ulla asks calmly.

“Where are my friends?” Magda quickly replies.

“They are all safe, they are all in the next room and I promise after we’ve had our talk, I’ll let you re-join them, but for now please answer the question.” Ulla replies.

“Infiltrators are a disease on this world. They attack other women, steal their clothing. Then they just leave them by the side of the road. Bound, gagged, helpless and left to a fate what could be worse than death.” Magda replies angrily.

“I wouldn’t do that do to you.” Blink says.

“LIAR!” Magda shouts.

“Okay, calm down, calm down.” Ulla raises her hands to keep the peace.

“Now this may come as a surprise to you, but I’ve had a run in with a couple of the sisters and let me tell you, the infiltrators who I met, were nothing like the ones you’ve just described.” Ulla states.

“Ha! We know all of Tina’s sisters by their name, so go on then, which one’s did you meet?” Magda laughs.

“Mag and Angel.” Ulla lifts up her mask to reveal her face. “Angel saved my life, I can never thank her enough, so please understand that if you’re trying to hurt her or her sisters, then I will be forced to stop you, because I will not allow you to hurt the one person who actually sees me for the person I want to be and NOT the person the world expects me to be.” Ulla frowns.

“No…..That’s……That’s impossible, the same thing happened to Willow…….But that just can’t be accurate, it can’t be. Infiltrators are the scum of the earth! A sickness that needs purging! Nobody helped me when……….WHEN……….” Magda went quiet.

“When what, come on. What aren’t you telling me?” Ulla replies softly.

“I was just out for a pleasant evening jog by myself……When I was attacked by that scumbag Helen Jacomy…….She hurt me, stole my jogging outfit and left me bound and gagged in my underwear right in the middle of the park.” Magda explains.

“Were you discovered by anyone?” Ulla asks.

“Oh I was discovered alright…..Someone discovered me and I guess the sight of a bound and gagged woman in her underwear was just too good of an opportunity for them to pass up……”

“Please. Tell me what happened?” However Ulla watches as Magda tightly squeezes her legs together as if she’s reliving that dreadful day and she’s trying to repel her attacker. “Oh……You were raped weren’t you.” Ulla sighs.

“I was so helpless…….I couldn’t fight my attacker off……I was gagged, so I couldn’t call for help!............I tried to scream, but nobody heard!” Magda starts to tear up as she just can’t hold it back anymore. Even Blink is now watching with feelings of empathy.

“I was engaged to a man…….I was going to get married……..We were planning on having a child together………But after that night……..I just LOST……All my strength………I ended the relationship because I just couldn’t even face my own fiancé anymore……..I couldn’t even look the man I loved in the eyes anymore.” Tears stream down Magda’s face.

“I didn’t know. I’m so sorry.” Blink puts down her now empty bowl.

“I WAS HAPPY!………Don’t you get it?!.............I was SO HAPPY……………..I just……….I just want my life back.” Magda breaks down into floods of tears.

These tears were a mixture of both pain and anger. Pain over the memories of what had happened to her that night and anger, over the fact that Helen had cost her every bit of happiness that she had in her life.

Ulla bends down to wipe the tears away from Magda’s eyes, but Magda just tilts her head away.

“That shouldn’t have happened to you. Nobody should ever have to go with what you went through. It’s disgusting, it’s vile and I’m so sorry it happened to you.” Ulla gently leans in to show Magda that she can support her, but Magda just shoves her body away so Ulla can’t touch her.

Blink bends down and tries to comfort Magda, but Magda just shuns her away.

“I didn’t do anything to your daughter, I really didn’t. I would never harm a child.” Magda cries angrily as tears continuously pour down her face.

“Ssshhh…..It’s okay, it’s okay. I know you didn’t. I just needed to be sure.” Ulla moves in slightly closer so she can look Magda in the eyes.

“Now I’m going to give you some truths and believe me the truth hurts. So you might not like what I have to say, but I need to say it………..What happened that night to you was a travesty and believe me, if I could go back in time, I’d grab that scumbag who sexually assaulted you before they even touched you, and I’d hurt them so much, that by the end of it, they’d be begging me to kill them………But do you want to know something else? Tina and her sisters would do the SAME for you too. You saw all the criminals they’ve put away, you’ve seen all the corrupt officials and police that they stopped…….You KNOW that they tried to save you, just like they did ME.” Ulla states.

Magda shakes her head and closes her eyes.

“The sisters themselves, view every life as precious and they wouldn’t even think of doing anything like what happened to you…..I’m not saying abandon your quest. I’m just saying, PLEASE. Aim it at those who truly deserve your anger.” Ulla calmly replies.

“Please…….Help me find my daughter. Every second I’m not with her is like a knife across my throat. I don’t care what happens to me, I just want to see her safe and sound again.” Blink pleads.

Magda looks Blink in the eyes and she can see the truth behind them. But Magda just bows her head in silence. Ulla then releases Magda’s ankle cuffs but keeps her handcuffs on.

“Go and be with your friends.” Ulla opens the door and Magda very weakly walks out. She hated revisiting that memory, but she also sees the fear for another human being in Blink’s eyes…….What was once anger and hatred was now despair and confusion.

Once she’s outside she sees the rest of the white masks being held in different rooms. She sees the crows all sitting around a table together whilst Izanagi watches her in case she tries anything foolish. But Magda just sits down at the table, before one of the crows offers her a bowl of soup. Although the handcuffs are staying on.

Ulla leaves the room and secretly wipes a tear away from her own eye when no one is looking. Ulla must always maintain a cold and distant persona, but she’s still human and hearing Magda’s grief over her happy life being destroyed by a selfish infiltrator, plucked at Ulla’s heartstrings a little bit.

Ulla gets ready to speak to Cassie next……..

*************************************************************************************************************************************

A Phantom who was guarding the main entrance to the tunnel, hasn’t heard anything from outpost Zeta in a while.

“Hey, this is Callie. Everything seems to be all nice and quiet over there, is everything alright?” The Phantom now known as Callie speaks down the radio.

Moment’s pass, but all she gets is static.

“Outpost zeta, do you copy?” Callie walks round to have a look at the outpost.

Callie is a standard Phantom soldier, which means she’s wearing white laced combat boots, white combat trousers, a white shirt, white combat jacket, a white ammunitions vest, covered with spare ammunition clips and other gadgets, she’s wearing white fingerless gloves, white knee pads and white elbow pads. She’s wearing a white full head helmet with green visors. An assault rifle is firmly locked in her grip.

“This is Callie reporting in to HQ, it seems outpost Zeta has gone dark and request immediate reinforcements to……..Bbbbbzzzzztttttt!” Callie is suddenly interrupted as she radios into command.

Knipperen snuck up behind Callie when she was busy radioing back to command. Knipperen has grabbed Callie’s own taser from one of her holsters and shoved it straight into Callie’s back, before switching it on.

Callie’s body spasms as the effects of the taser vibrates through her entire body, moments later she falls to her knees, before her upper body collapse to the floor, but her knees stay put, allowing her bum to go right up into the air and right into Knipperen’s field of view.

“Thanks for your offer sweetie, but I don’t date my prey.” Knipperen chuckles at seeing Callie’s bum pointing right at her.

Knipperen shoves Callie on her back and pulls of her helmet. Revealing a woman with white skin underneath. Callie also has long cinnamon brown hair tied in a low bun look, so her hair doesn’t get pulled when she puts her helmet on. Although her eyes are closed due to the fact she is unconscious, if she was to open her eyelids, it would be revealed that she has lapis blue eyes. Judging by her appearance, Knipperen has a quick guess that Callie is in her late twenties.

“Callie, we didn’t get all that, please repeat your last, over.” A female voice speaks through the radio.

“This is Callie here, sorry about that, it seems that outpost zeta has just radioed in after all, they had a bad transmitter from there side.” Knipperen says quickly putting on Callie’s helmet.

“Are you sure, please confirm.” The female voice replies over the radio.

“Copy that command, I’m looking at the outpost now and I assure you, everyone is accounted for, over.” Knipperen bluffs.

“Solid copy, over and out.” The female on the other end, cuts the transmission.

Knipperen takes off the helmet and looks at Callie’s unconscious body.

“Well then honey, now that your friends won’t be coming to bother us. Why don’t you and I go behind these rocks together, where we can get a bit more acquainted eh.” Knipperen says as she grabs Callie by her ankles.

Knipperen drags Callie around a cluster of boulders that are situated close by, behind the rocks there also seems to be a duffle bag filled with items an infiltrator like Knipperen would need. She then gets to work and starts stripping Callie for the rest of her uniform. Once Knipperen has fully stripped Callie of her clothing, it is revealed underneath that Callie is wearing a pair of porcelain white panties and a pebble grey cage bra.

“Ppfftt, a bit desperate, are we?” Knipperen says after seeing Callie’s underwear.

Knipperen grabs a role of her modified tape and gets to work in securing Callie. Knipperen ties up Callie’s, wrists and arms before she wraps multiple layers of tape around Callie’s chest and stomach, making sure she secures her arms to her sides in the process, she then wraps more tape around Callie’s ankles, thigh and calves before she finally puts one more layer of tape across her mouth as a gag.

With Callie secured and out of the way, Knipperen puts on Callie’s uniform, including her helmet once again. Yet once Knipperen had gotten changed. Callie was waking up and starting to realize what was happening.

“Un….Un…..Hhhuuhhh……..Heeellmmmhh……..HHHEEELMMMPPHH!” Callie shouts through her gag and wriggles around on the floor.

“Now, now, hush your noise. You should be happy, because you might not know this, but there are currently zero records of anyone stealing a Phantoms uniform. Which means not only are you the first Phantom in recorded history to be stripped, but what makes this even better is that you were stripped by ME! A sheer Apex predator, who’s second to none!” Knipperen gloats.

But as Knipperen gloats, Callie is using her feet and she’s squeezing a sharp rock in-between her toes to try and cut the bonds, but unfortunately for Callie, Knipperen saw her.

“Oh, so your one of the smart one’s who thinks they can use their toes to cut their bonds are you? Well, we can’t be having THAT now, can we.” Knipperen tuts to herself as she reaches into her bag.

She pulls out a thin ball of string before she bends down and holds Callie’s feet together. She then bites of a large piece of string before she holds Callie’s two big toes together, where she quickly ties them together using the said string. Callie now can’t even use her feet to try and escape.

“Much better.” Knipperen says with delight as Callie rolls around on the floor mumbling and swearing at Knipperen under her gag.

Knipperen finishes adjusting Callie’s uniform before she steps out behind the rocks.

“Thanks for the clothes sweetie and I said, you should be happy. We’re making history today!” Knipperen gloats once more as she walks around leaving Callie humiliated and defeated.

Knipperen walks round and takes Callie’s place by the main entrance.

“With that Ulla woman here, things have just gotten bad to worse. Hhhmmm, I need to radio Tina and her sisters, they’ll come running as soon as they find out Blink’s in trouble. Hold on sister dearest, I’ve got everything under control.” Knipperen says as she starts fiddling with her radio.

It might take her a few minutes to make sure that the Phantoms aren’t listening in, but she’ll find away to get a private communication line open which will link directly to Tinker’s computer.

*************************************************************************************************************************************

Cassie hasn’t stopped shaking. She’s looks on in fear and sweat as Ulla enters the room alongside Blink, before they close the door.

“So, you are Cassie Williams. A former nurse working for Heartfelt’s general hospital. It says here you had run in with Mary Clyde as well as a janitress, but it seems you were the lucky one as Mary killed the unfortunate janitress. It says here that you are quite meek and it seems you have a trouble imposing yourself and….” Ulla stops as she sees Cassie absolutely shaking with fear. Ulla sighs deeply.

“Okay, you’re not going to cause me any trouble are you. Here you go.” Ulla walks up and unlocks Cassie’s ankle cuffs and her handcuffs; Ulla can see that Cassie won’t be any trouble at all.

“Please, don’t hurt me, don’t hurt my friends. I’m sorry, I never even wanted to join the Phantoms. I don’t WANT to kill anyone, I don’t want to hurt anyone. I’m a nurse, which means I took an oath to SAVE lives. Not take them!” Cassie points out.

“I know you did, and I also know that your not a threat to anyone here. Because whilst you were in jail. I saw what happened.” Ulla remarks.

“Saw what?” Cassie asks confused.

“My crows and I, saw you leave with Tina and some of her sisters……Including Angel……..Then when you returned, I don’t know. You just seemed……Not happy, but….CONTENT……As if a big weight had just been lifted of your shoulders. Would you mind telling me about it?” Ulla asks.

“Yes, yes! Marie, Tina, Angel and even Mag. They helped me takedown Mary Clyde. But that’s not all, they actually SAVED a woman’s life. For you see, Mary shot a woman as she was trying to escape, and Marie saved her. She removed the bullet and patched her up perfectly.” Cassie explains.

“Wait. Then I’m confused. Why do you hate Tina and her sisters? It just sounds to me like their going around saving lives and putting bad people behind bars, so why do you hate them?” Ulla is genuinely confused.

“I don’t.” Cassie says softly under her breath.

“Okay, then what about the others? Do they share your view?” Ulla wonders.

“Maybe……I don’t know. I hope so, because I don’t want to see anyone get hurt. Please understand, that I will NEVER agree with Tina and her sisters methods of getting things done…….BUT…….I also know that they’d never hurt any of their victims, that they always make sure that the women their mugging are safe and comfortable………Now this does NOT excuse their methods at all, but at least I know that the women their mugging, are at least in safe hands and the nine sisters will always make sure they are discovered.” Cassie admits.

“Thank you for being honest with me. I hope this next question doesn’t give you any stress, but I need to know the truth.” Ulla states.

“Of course, I’ll try and help.” Cassie says seemingly a little more relaxed now.

Ulla steps to one side and allows Blink to approach.

“Please be honest with me. Did you or any of the other white masks have a hand in abducting my daughter?” Blink asks.

Cassie’s eyes widen. “Your daughter? Oh god no, that’s horrible. We only just got recruited less than twenty four hours ago, we’ve been here ever since. Please don’t think that any of us had a hand in that, we would NEVER do anything like that. That’s a line you do not cross.” Cassie has a lot on sincerity in her voice as she says this.

“Then please help me, I beg of you. I need to know, did any of the other Phantoms speak about my daughter? Her name is Shannon and she means the world to me. Please, as a nurse. You must remember seeing all the faces of all those mothers when they held their new-born babies in their arms for the first time.” Blink says softly.

“Of course, I do, it always brings such a warm feeling in my heart.” Cassie replies.

“Then you know I’m telling the truth that I love my daughter more than anything in this world. In fact, Shannon IS my world and I just want to find her, please say you know something, anything, I beg you!” Blink pleads.

“There was one here who had a bird shaped helmet, she said of how she managed to liberate a child from becoming a future infiltrator. But that’s all I know, I swear!” Cassie speaks truthfully.

“One with a bird shaped helmet? Damn it, that doesn’t ring any bells.” Blink punches the wall in annoyance.

“Don’t worry, it’s a good start, we now know what the Phantom who took her looks like, so I’ll take that over nothing.” Ulla places her hand on Blink’s shoulder.

“Please, can I go. I’m not a monster, I don’t even want to be here, I just want to see my friends and try and forget about all of this.” Cassie pleads.

“I know your not a monster, but by the sounds of it. Tina and her sisters aren’t monsters either.” Ulla points out.

“No……I know they’re not…..Originally, the idea of getting revenge was such a sweet fantasy for me, but when push came to shove and I saw the fear in Angel’s eyes…..Not for her own safety, but for her sister’s own safety……..I KNEW, that I had made a big mistake…….Yes there are monsters out there. But Tina and her sisters are not like them…..Especially Angel.” Cassie sighs.

“Angel saved my life once too you know, so I know exactly what sort of loving and kind-hearted person Angel is. So I know exactly where you’re coming from.” Ulla admits.

“Are you looking for them or something?” Cassie quizzes.

“Kind of. I’m looking for them for a few reasons. Firstly, because I genuinely want to protect them as I fear that the Phantoms are not the only ones who are hunting them. Secondly, I never got a chance to thank Angel for saving my life, so I wish to thank her in person and finally. I think I might actually need their help.” Ulla admits.

“Wait, who else is trying to hunt them?” Blink wonders.

“This Anna woman who I’m working for. I don’t know, I just get the feeling like as she’s shaking your hand with her right hand. Her left hand is concealing a dagger, just waiting to stab you in the back.” Ulla riddles.

Blink and Ulla look at Cassie.

“Magda is sitting outside. Look, I haven’t released the others yet, but I can tell that both yourself and Magda aren’t a threat. So please join your friend outside.” Ulla opens the door for Cassie.

Cassie walks out and sees her friend finishing her bowl of soup. Cassie immediately goes over and sits next to her.

“Hi!” Cassie says, thankful to see her friend safe.

“Hey. Are you okay?” Magda replies.

“Yeah, I’m fine…….Hey, do you uumm……Do you ever think that we may have been wrong about Tina and her sisters?” Cassie says testing the waters.

“I’m…….I’m not sure…….I mean…….Uuummmm…….*sighs*…….I just……..I don’t know.” Magda finds it hard to explain.

Izanagi appears behind Cassie.

“Here, I can see you shaking like a leaf, this might calm you down.” Izanagi places a large mug of camomile tea in front of Cassie and walks away.

Cassie looks around and watches as the four gothic women adjust their rifles and check their ammunition belts, she then watches as Izanagi sits back on a chair and keeps a watchful eye over on Magda and herself.

Moments later, Blink and Ulla leave the room Cassie was in and approach the next door. Ulla wanted to speak to Willow next……

Please note: That this is PART TWO. Scroll up for part one! :D

***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

The sisters make their way inside the offices where they quickly realize that they stick out like a few spare ones at a wedding, as everyone inside the offices were wearing business suits.

“Can I help you three?” A woman at a desk asks.

“Yes, we’re looking for a set of forms from a shipment that came through here a couple of months ago.” Tina replied.

“If it’s that long ago it’ll be in one of our filing cupboards, I’ll get someone to take a look for you a little later on today, if you’d like to leave the details about here with me.” The woman at the desk says as she passes Tina a pen and paper.

“But it’s fairly urgent and we know what we want, so why don’t we just go and have a look ourselves?” Tina says with a smile.

“Sorry, office personal only beyond this point.” The woman at the desk just shrugs her shoulders.

“Fine.” Tina scribbles down a fake set on information and passes it back to the woman.

“Thank you, we will let you know if we find anything.” The woman remarks as she focuses back on her work.

“Great, thanks.” Tina, BB and Angel then leave the office area and go behind the building.

“Okay, so how should we get in there?” BB asks.

“It’s simple, we need a change of clothes and if I know all these office areas, a lot of designated smoking areas don’t have CCTV around them for some reason.” Tina thinks.

“Good old employee awareness.” Angel says sarcastically.

“Agreed, but this companies’ negligence can work to our advantage, let’s see what we’re working with.” Tina says as she leads her sisters round the back of the building.

Around the side of the building, sure enough was a designated smoking area surrounded by several crates and sure enough, not a single CCTV camera was in sight. The three sisters dart behind cover and wait for an opportunity. Then a few minutes later, one presents itself. Two females come round the corner gossiping about someone in the office.

The first woman is 28 years of age, she has beige white skin, long flowing chocolate brown hair styled in a perm and she has chestnut brown eyes. She’s wearing a black slim fit skirt which goes down to her thighs, a pair of black high heels, a white blouse top with a black suit blazer over it with just the middle button done up. An ID card was clipped to her skirt which read “Freya”.

The second woman is 33 years of age, she has olive skin, medium length midnight black hair styled in a pixie cut and she has light green eyes. She’s wearing a pair of black pump shoes, navy-blue slim fitting suit trousers, a dark grey buttoned blouse and a navy-blue suit blazer. An ID card was clipped to her trousers and this read that her name was “Vivia”.

“Oh my god, did you see that outfit, Chloe was wearing in there.” Freya gossips as the two ladies walk around the corner.

“I know, talk about a mid-life crisis, it’s like eerrr hello, the eighties called. They want their style back.” Vivia giggled.

“Oh god and did you see the way Laura was flirting with Jason in there? Jesus Christ, can that woman BE anymore desperate?” Freya continues as she stops at the smoking area.

“I know right. She needs to get laid, big time, I mean come on, she was so close to him in there, I thought she was just going to lift up her skirt and sit on his lap.” Vivia chuckled as she pulled out a packet of cigarettes.

“I’m pretty sure Jason wouldn’t have minded.” Freya winks as she helps herself to one of Vivia’s cigarettes.

“Even so, there are way hotter women in there than that ugly cow. I mean look at us! If Jason should be hooking up with anyone, it should be with us.” Vivia pulls out her lighter.

“Damn right girl, we’ve got the looks and we’ve definitely got more sex appeal than that skank in there.” Freya pops the cigarette into her mouth.

But before Vivia can switch on her lighter, Angel fires two darts from her gun and they both fly through the air catching both Vivia and Freya right on their hips.

“Eeeekkk!” Both women shriek simultaneously as the darts hit them.

Both women stair at each other, wondering what has just nipped them, then suddenly both women watch as each other’s eyes go extremely heavy, they both start to feel faint and start to wobble. “Uuuunnnnnnn.” Both women moan as they both fall forward. Both women end up bonking into each other, but instead of falling backwards their cheeks seem to stick together as both women have collided into each other. “Ooooohhh.” Both women moan as they slide down each other’s bodies with their cheeks firmly pressed against each other’s. It ends when both of the ladies collapse on the floor together, with Freya going sideways and landing on her back and Vivia falling forward and laying right on top of Freya, going across her stomach. Both women are now sleeping gently.

Angel and Tina quickly emerge from their hiding spot and grab their burdens before quickly dragging them behind the crates they just emerged from. Yet as they do, they suddenly hear giggling come from over their microphones.

“Stasis, are you watching the monitors.” Tina recognises that cheeky giggle.

“Eeerrmm………No.” Stasis replies.

“Hi Stasis.” Angel says as she starts to strip Vivia.

“Oh come on, that was hilarious, the way those two just went splat right into each other, priceless.” Stasis replies.

“Where’s Tinker sis?” Tina asks as she strips Freya.

“Oh no, I’m still here, Stasis just got bored and she wanted to see how you were doing.” Tinker says over the mic, revealing that she is still watching them.

Once the women had been stripped it is revealed that. Freya is wearing a rosewood pink G-string and a violet purple long line bra. Vivia meanwhile is wearing a pair of Persian blue French cut panties and a shamrock green bandeau bra.

“Hey is that one wearing a G-string, oh this is great, hold a second……Hey Libido! Their stripping a woman here, who’s wearing a G-string!” Stasis shouts.

“WHAT! THAT IS SO UNFAIR!” Libido is heard shouting from the other side of the room.

“Hey, come on Stasis, stop teasing your sister.” Tina says as she gets some bonds ready.

“Haha, yes mum.” Stasis playfully jokes before she hangs up the microphone.

BB, Angel and Tina just look at each other, before they all just shake their heads and smile, as they all know that Stasis is just having fun and joking around. The best course of action here as the sisters know is if BB and Tina impersonate the two office women, purely because Angel’s blue hair might attract some unwanted attention, so whilst BB gets changed into Vivia’s clothes and Tina gets changed into Freya’s clothes. Angel ties up the two women.

Angel uses some zip ties, to swiftly fasten the ladies’ ankles together, then their wrists, before she secures their arms and legs. She then sits both women back to back and straps their bodies together by fastening some zip ties around their bodies to keep them in place. Finally, she finds some ball gags with holes in inside one of the bags and she straps in both ladies mouths before securing them at the back so they are fully gagged.

“I knew Libido just couldn’t resist.” Angel chuckles over the fact that clearly Libido had snuck a few ball gags in earlier on. Finally, Angel pulls out a sheet, not a thick one, but a thin one, purely because of the heat and she gently lays it over both of the women’s bodies, so at least if they are discovered sooner rather than later, they’ll still be able to retain their dignity of not been humiliated in their underwear.

Once changed, BB sighs in frustration as her arms stretch out Vivia’s blazer. “Seriously.” BB remarks.

“Don’t worry sis, just stay close to me and I’m sure everyone inside will be so engrossed in their work, that they probably won’t even notice.” Tina says trying to boost her sisters confidence.

“I hope so.” BB admits.

“Angel, are you okay to stay behind and keep an eye out, let us know if anything seems out of the ordinary.” Tina instructs.

“Don’t worry, I’ve got your backs.” Angel replies giving Tina and BB and thumbs up.

Angel makes her way round the front of the building and casually leans against the wall as if she’s just an ordinary worker chilling out, whilst Tina and BB enter the officer block itself with heir newly acquired disguises. When they enter, both BB and Tina cover their faces from the woman behind the desk from earlier, although it seems like she’s more interested with how her nails look to even notice BB and Tina walked past her. Now that they were in, they just needed to find the filing area.

*************************************************************************************************************************************

Willow sits quietly as Ulla and Blink stare at her.

“Your name is Willow Woodrue. Wow, your quite intelligent, it says here that you were supposed to be a student in orthroprosthetics after you completed your training in computer physics. That’s impressive. Then it shows that your sister was killed by an infiltrator just for her clothes and this sent you down the dark path your on now…….Look I won’t bring up any bad memories and I won’t continue to read your backstory, but can you explain to me, in your own words, just what is going on?” Ulla asks.

Willow remains silent.

“I see that you’re an addict for dramatic, dyed black hair and pale skin. But I see you…….I see through the prickly thorns which surround your cold, cold heart. Please, tell me your thoughts?” Ulla speaks in a calm and reassuring voice.

Willow remains silent.

“I know you don’t talk much, but I also know that the death of your sister Laurine Woodrue has shaken you to the core. Well, this might come as a surprise to you, but I feel your pain. I know what you’re going through, so please, talk to me, maybe we can help each other out eh?” Ulla talks gently to Willow.

Willow remains silent………..Ulla then strips out of her combat gear and even her clothes. Blink’s eyes widen and wonders what she is doing. Ulla strips down to a pair of black boy shorts and a black push up bra. She then reveals to both Blink and Willow that she is covered in scars from where she cuts herself. The scars cover her body from her ankles, all the way to her wrists, this even include parts of her breasts, the only places that haven’t got any scars or cut marks are her neck, head and hands.

“Do you see me now? I’ve lost so many people in my life, that my conscience has become so damn heavy. I shed my own blood every day in memory of those I lost.” Ulla explains.

Willows eyes have indeed widened by the sight of Ulla’s scared body, but she still remains silent.

“We’ve been through everything you and I and we all have our scars, we may be broken, but my god we’re still here!........Let me tell you something……..I was like you……..Sinking…….Drowning in the deep…….The cold black clawing at my every being…….You know, sometimes……I could never tell if I was swimming my way to the surface………or if I was just swimming further deeper into my own oblivion.” Ulla monologues.

Willow remains silent.

“I had the crows yes, but I never felt so alone……..the burdens I carried were pulling me towards the flames……..My fears were endlessly circling, ensuring nothing of me would remain……..It just felt like the world was punishing me. I was shackled in chains and I just couldn’t break free! Nooses around my throat, just tightening the grip, bound by my sorrows…….My wings had been clipped………I was going to die…….BUT……..I was saved. A woman…..She made me see that I was WRONG……She saved my life and deep down, you know this woman would save yours too…….Her name is Angel.” Ulla continues.

Willow remains silent…………Ulla puts her clothes back on when she hears something behind her.

“Angel…..” Willow whispers. Ulla spins around quickly and bends down to meet Willows gaze.

“Yes! Angel, she’s the one who saved my life! Please…….Please, don’t go all silent on me now, come on! Please talk to me!” Ulla begs.

Willow’s voice was gravelly, echoey, it almost sounded inhuman, this is from where she barely speaks anymore…….

“Angel killed my sister.” Willow whispered in Ulla’s ear. “But Angel saved me.” She continued.

“There we go, we’re finally talking, come on, please don’t stop. Tell me YOUR story, I want to hear what YOU have to say, don’t worry about anyone else right now, just please talk to me.” Ulla nearly begs, Ulla noticed the white masks several times while she was in prison and she knows just how hard it can be to make Willow actually talk.

“When she was known as Demon, she killed my sister for her uniform………I was so filled with fiery anger……I was going to kill as many infiltrators as I could…….Then I was finally going to kill myself so I could be with my sister once again.” Willow stares blankly into the void.

“Then what happened, you’re doing so well, you really are.” Ulla speaks in a calm and reassuring tone.

“Angel saved me. I was trying to kill her and her sisters, yet all she ever wanted to do was make sure her own sisters were safe……She was willing to die so that they may live…….She wants me to LIVE for my sister…….She explained of how this is not something my own sister would want. My sister would want me to be happy, not filled with hatred.” Willow explains.

“So Angel saved you too………..She wants to save everyone doesn’t she.” Ulla replies.

“I miss my sister so much.” Tears form in Willows eyes.

“I know you do, Angel was different back then……She wasn’t herself……She…….let’s just say she wasn’t in control.” Ulla remembered all the stories that the clone officers told them about Angel when she was Demon, of how brainwashed she was……But how could Ulla possibly explain that to Willow without sounding crazy.

“Angel sees something in YOU………She sees something in ME………Angel sees something in every single person she comes across…….God we’re so broken you and I……But we’re not done for………I KNOW, in her heart of hearts if Angel could, she’d turn back the hands of time and make sure your sister was still alive. I KNOW she would.” Ulla replies with confidence.

“This world is filled with scum and villainy, we formed the white masks after seeing all the heroics and good deeds the night angels were doing, but in the end, it turned out that it was Tina and her sisters who were the night angels.” Willow sounds defeated.

“Then allow that to be your steppingstone. Let this show, that Tina and her sisters are trying to do good in this world. They don’t want to hurt you or your friends, they want to protect you.” Ulla calmly replies.

“We just wanted to do good in this world too.” Willow whispers back.

“You still CAN.” Blink steps forward. “I know you hate me and believe me I haven’t forgiven you for all the shit you put me through! But I want to offer you a chance. If you really want to be a force for good then please help me find my daughter…….The Phantoms abducted her. She’s just a child. Now I know you won’t allow harm to come to just an innocent child, so I beg you. NOT as Blink the infiltrator……But as Evie Ward….A loving mother who only wants to see her daughter returned to her safely.” Blink pleads with Willow.

Willow doesn’t answer Blink, but she can see the pain in her eyes.

“Look, I’ll beg, I’ll cry, I’ll even admit to you that the pain I’m going through right now is far worse than what you even put me through. I can’t stand it, it hurts so much. I’ll do anything to get my daughter back. Please help me, she’s just a child!” Blink gets down on her knees in hopes that this make Willow see that she is desperate to get Shannon back.

“I don’t think you fully understand what you’ve gotten yourself into by joining the Phantoms do you? Blink showed me the reports of how the Phantoms mercilessly killed Shannon’s babysitter for no reason. She didn’t do anything did she? She was just an innocent woman looking after Blink’s daughter for a few hours trying to make a living and the Phantoms needlessly killed her. Now does that sound like a group who want to truly do good in the world?” Ulla shows Willow the report to know that she isn’t lying.

Willow looks at it then stares at Ulla.

“I can see it in your eyes. You’re not horrible. You’re not bad in anyway. You were a victim that got brainwashed by Sarah, although judging by the way the other inmates and guards were talking. Sarah is now just a blubbering fool who’s been reduced to nothing. Please don’t be like her. Your so much better than her. Do you hear me? you CAN still do good in this world. You and all your friends, you have so much talent, so much potential, you just need to be shown, who your true enemy is. Because I’ve got news for you and I’m so sorry if this hurts……but the truth has a habit of bleeding us dry doesn’t it……..Tina and her sisters are NOT your enemies…….They’d save you again and again and again………None of them would let anything bad happen to you…….I know you probably don’t believe me, but remember……Angel saved ME……..She then saved YOU……..She helps people and deep down, that’s what you want to do isn’t it?” Ulla asks.

Willow gently nods her head.

“Look. Just because your broken, it doesn’t mean your unfixable. I can show you, if you’d like? I can show you that your life is worth living, that your sister would want you live…….Your sister will be waiting for you and she always will be………But when you reunite with her, she’s going to want to hear all about the good things you’ve done in your life. I just want you to have so many wonderful tales to tell her when you see her again.” Ulla tries her best.

“Do you really believe that though?” Willow speaks.

“Of course I do, besides, you know if the sisters were here, they’d make you see just how special you are in this world, if you were ever in trouble, you know that Tina and her sisters would come to your rescue, they’d save you and they’d save your friends, looks into my eyes, you must know I’m speaking the truth.” Ulla tries to get Willow to see reason.

“What am I doing here?” Willow says looking at her Phantom uniform.

“It’s okay, I know this all sounds confusing, but please. Blink’s daughter’s life might be at risk, any help you can give would prove that you can still do good in this world.” Ulla tries one last time.

Willow looks at Ulla then looks at Blink. She stares into Blink’s eyes for about ten seconds but doesn’t say a word.

“Would you like to be back with your friends? Magda and Cassie are waiting for you out here, would you like to go and sit with them?” Ulla asks.

Willow nods. Ulla uncuffs her ankle cuffs but for now she keeps the handcuffs on, she opens the door and allows Willow to re-join her friends. But just as she sits down, the crows sit around her too.

“It’s always nice to see another goth girl you know. The siren is a tortured woman, but she also has a great deal of respect for Tina and her sisters, especially Angel.” Crow 2 says to her.

“She wanted to talk to you in prison, but she just didn’t know what to say, she used to say to us of how she knew that none of you were evil, you just needed a neutral person to put things into perspective for you.” Crow 4 adds.

“The Siren herself holds many burdens, but please know that she really does only want the best for people. So I will say this. Whatever she said to you in there, we highly advice that you think really long and carefully about it, purely because everything she says is usually truthful.” Crow 1 now says.

“Us goth girls have to stick together, don’t we?” Crow 3 finally speaks before all four members of the crows get up and walk away.

Willow sits back and looks at Magda and Cassie who are sitting around her, she doesn’t say anything of course, but she is happy to see her friends safe and sound.

“We’re running out of time, every second wasted here is another second my daughter’s life is in danger!” Blink pleads with Ulla as they both leave the room.

“I know and I’m trying to get us to her for you, but please, try your best to relax and before you know it, you’ll be wrapping your arms around your daughter and this whole ordeal will seem just like one big nightmare.” Ulla says.

The three white masks overhear this.

“This isn’t right, I don’t care how Blink is viewed, hearing about her daughter getting caught up in the middle of this, is just unfair. Maybe we should help.” Cassie now suggests.

“But what could we possibly do anyway?” Magda answers truthfully.

“I don’t know, but their must be something we can come up with. We always said that we wanted to do some good in this world, maybe this our chance? What do you think Willow?” Cassie follows up with.

Willow just remains silent and looks at her friends, she taps her fingers rapidly on the table as if she wants to say something…….But alas……Not a single word leaves her lips and she remains silent for the time being.

***********************************************************************************************************************************

As Tina and BB make their way round the various offices, BB feels slightly uncomfortable, not just because the outfit she’s currently wearing is being stretched to the max and her shoes are greatly pinching her feet, but she’s also worried that people are staring at her. But it seems fate itself just might show BB that good things can happen at the strangest of times, because the unthinkable is about to happen.

As Tina and BB pass a water cooler by one of the offices, two males are just idly chatting when the sisters walk past them.

“Whoa Alex, who’s the tall woman.” The first male says with delight as BB walks passed.

“I don’t know dude, but wow, she is GORGEOUS!” The second male known as Alex replies.

BB overhears this and turns her head around to see the two males, smiling and waving at her. This in turn makes BB blush as she’s never had anyone get attracted to her before

“Hi.” Both of the men say to her.

“Hi guys.” BB says with a smile and a wave.

Tina notices this as well, once they are out of sight, Tina wraps her arm around BB’s arm and smiles at her.

“You see sis. Some people do genuinely prefer tall woman and by the seems of it, those two back there thought you were beautiful. This is why you should have more confidence in your appearance. Your size is a gift, not a curse.” Tina says as she could tell that, that small gesture back there meant a lot to BB.

BB doesn’t respond, she just smiles, then turns bright red with embarrassment and looks around the room trying to avoid the fact that Tina is right about this.

“Come on, let’s find this filing room.” Tina says, she didn’t need BB to reply as she could see it in her eyes, that BB got a well needed confidence boost as BB can be quite paranoid sometimes over the fact that she is seven foot tall.

The two sisters found the filing room and using the information Tinker was providing for them over their microphones, they eventually found the correct documents they were looking for.

“I don’t believe it! they’ve all been erased!” Tina says in annoyance as it seems someone has been tampering with the paperwork.

“All of these have been sabotaged too. It seems someone’s pretty keen on keeping these arrivals a secret.” BB adds as she throws a load of paperwork on the floor.

“Damn it, okay let’s regroup with Angel and figure out what our next move should be.” But then Tina notices a familiar woman leaving her office with a couple of security guards.

This woman was a tall and elegant lady, wearing a white business suit with a crimson red shirt underneath. She has dyed blonde hair, white skin and a very slim figure, she looks about 46 years of age and her name is “Lisa”.

“Wait a second. I remember that woman.” Tina whispers.

“Yeah, so do I. Wasn’t she the one who gave Jetset that shipment a little while back?” BB recognises Lisa too.

“Indeed, she was. Right then, it seems we have a new lead. Let’s regroup and follow her.” Tina and BB then follow Lisa but keep their distance.

They regroup with Angel who’s still keeping watch outside, then after updating her on the situation, the three sisters follow Lisa from a safe distance. After a brief walk, Lisa stops just outside a gated off part of the docks where more armed guards allow her and her escort to enter.

“Well, that doesn’t seem ominous at all now, does it.” Angel says sarcastically.

“I think we need to have a little talk with whoever that woman was, as I reckon that right now, she’s our best chance at finding out who the Phantoms business partner is.” Tina states.

“Sounds good to me, but as you probably already guessed. There’s no way we’re getting in dressed like this.” BB says with a smile knowing what comes next.

Tina looks at both her’s and her sisters’ outfits then stares at the guards below. “Let’s fix that problem then shall we.”

The three sisters climb on one of the containers and when the coast is clear they use the containers height to jump over the gated fence. Because of their training, all three of the sisters land safely on the other side and quickly dart behind cover. A few seconds later, two female guards are doing their usual patrol routes.

The first sentry was 30 years old, she has warm ivory white skin, she has short Havana brown hair styled in a short slicked look and she has forest green eyes. She’s wearing black laced military style boots, green fatigue trousers, an equipment for storing things like her radio, taser and handcuffs. She’s wearing a light green shirt with a green fatigue jacket over it, she’s wearing a green fatigue cap and she’s carrying a semi-automatic weapon. The name patch sewn on her uniform reads “Sloane”.

The second sentry was 29 years of age, she has porcelain white skin, she has black hair styled into what is known as a short sides look of where half of her head is shaved short, but the other half is long and swept over, she has also dyed the swept over part of her sunflower blonde. She has dream blue eyes and she is wearing the same type of uniform as Sloane; A green fatigue jacket with a light green shirt underneath, an equipment belt, green fatigue trousers and Black military style boots. She’s not wearing her cap as apparently that would mess up her hair. She too is carrying an semi-automatic weapon and a name patch sewn on her uniform reads “River”.

“So how does it feel turning thirty huh? Does it make you feel old yet?” River taunts her friend.

“Hey screw you, your twenty-nine don’t forget, so you’re not exactly five or six years younger than me are you.” Sloane playfully shoves River.

“Yeah, but I still have seven more blissful months of being in my twenties, aahh the sweet smell of youth.” River closes her eyes and pretends in take in a deep breath.

“Eerr excuse me, everyone knows that your end your primes when you reach thirty-one! Thirty is like your last hurrah or something.” Sloane tries to justify her recent 30th birthday.

“What ever you say old lady.” River jokes.

As the two sentries joke to each other, Tina and Angel sneak up behind them, whilst BB keeps an eye out for anymore additional sentries. Angel fires a dart which hits River right on the back of her neck, but as soon as the dart hits River, Tina grabs Sloane.

“Huh, Hhhmmppphhhh!” Sloane reacts as Tina’s hand clamps over her mouth. Tina then quickly tilts Sloane’s head sideways and gives her a swift chop, right in the sweet spot just in-between the neck and the shoulders. “Uuunnn.” Sloane moans as her world fades to black and she falls unconscious in Tina’s arms.

River meanwhile stands perfectly still but her upper body start swaying left and right as the knockout drug quickly overpowers her body, rendering her under it’s complete control. “I feel so….So…..Oooooohhhhh.” A big smile goes across River’s face as she somehow seems to be enjoying the feelings that the serum is doing to her. She then falls backwards but Angel is there to catch her, so she doesn’t hit the ground. River falls straight into Angel’s arms fast asleep, yet she still has that big smile across her face.

Tina and Angel drag the two sentries behind their hiding spot and get to work in stripping them, whilst BB remains on lookout. Once the two sleeping beauties have been stripped of their uniforms, it is revealed that Sloane is wearing a pair of syrup brown bikini panties and a spice orange non-padded bra. River on the other hand is wearing a pair of blonde yellow hipster panties and a lavender purple racerback bra.

Whilst Angel gets changed into River’s clothes and Tina gets changed into Sloane’s clothes. BB gets to work in tying up the real uniform owners. BB figures she might as well put the sentries own zip ties to good use, so she zip ties both River’s and Sloane’s wrists and ankles together using their own restraints. Next BB uses several bonds from their own stash and swiftly ties the two women’s arms and legs before tying their arms to their sides by naturally wrapping ropes around their chest areas. Once this was done, BB wraps a cloth in and around both River’s and Sloane’s mouths as gag, but after this BB then uses some additional cloth and swiftly wraps it around both women’s eyes so they have now been blindfolded too. With them tightly secured and not going anywhere. BB opens up an empty crate and places both of the women inside. Both River’s and Sloane are now crouched down inside the barrel together, with their breasts firmly pressing against one another’s purely due to lack of space. BB then gently puts the lid back on, although she naturally leaves plenty of room for fresh air to get inside. With this both Angel and Tina have finished getting changed into the sentries uniforms.

“Okay BB, wait her a minute and we’ll find a woman who’s roughly your size and bring her over.” Tina decides.

“Call me, if you need me.” BB replies.

“Will do.” Angel nods as both her and Tina emerge from their hiding spots and walk together as if they were just two regular sentries on their regular patrol route.

Tina and Angel spend a few minutes sizing up all the guards they come across, yet sadly, most guards are of average builds and barely any of them would fit BB. Angel and Tina both know that they’d have to go for the next best thing and find the guard with the most lose fitting uniform as she’ll be the one who would fit BB the closest.
***********************************************************************************************************************************

“You think your funny Huh?! Doing something like that!” Ulla and Blink enter the room to find Izanagi pinning Ellie to the floor with her hands wrapped around her throat.

“Hey, hey! What the hell’s going on in here!” Ulla demands.

“Go on do it again! I dare you, come on! I’ll rip your damn teeth out!” Izanagi keeps her hands around Ellie’s throat as Ellie chokes and coughs.

“Izanagi, stand down, that’s an order soldier!” Ulla snaps.

“Yes captain.” Izanagi releases her grip from Ellie’s throat, but she doesn’t help her up.

“Now, what was all this about, speak!” Ulla nudges Ellie who’s still on the floor coughing.

“Your little friend here just learned what happens when they get deceived by the looks of a sweet little thing like me who’s as cute as a button!” Ellie gloats and spits in Izanagi’s direction.

“I’m going to kill you, you Phantom wannabe, I tried to give her some water and this little freak bit me! Look she even pierced the damn skin.” Izanagi checks her hand then grabs her sniper rifle and aims it right at Ellie’s head.

“ENOUGH! Izanagi, go outside and get some air. That’s an order!” Ulla shouts.

“Yes captain.” Izanagi takes a deep breath and walk outside.

“Infiltrator scum.” Ellie whispers under her breath.

Ulla walks up and grabs Ellie by her uniform and roughly pulls her upwards, so she is seated back in the up right position. Ellie then looks at Blink and spits on the floor.

“You’re going to be fun, aren’t you?” Ulla flicks through her information on Ellie before looking at her directly. “So, your name is Ellie Merces. It says here that you are an ice cream vendor, judging by your record, you seemed to really enjoy it too, which is a good thing, because we work for a long time, so we might as well find a job we’re going to happy in eh. Okay, so you were mugged by an infiltrator and you were just simply left in a cabinet and eventually discovered…..Hhhhmmm, I don’t see what the big deal is.” Ulla has deliberately left out the important parts even though they are on the screen right in front of her, this is a tactic she’s using to get Ellie to open up to her.

“Show’s what you know siren.” Ellie scoffs.

“So you know me as the siren too huh? Which reminds me, why did you feel the need to attack my soldier?” Ulla quizzes.

“Because I spoke to Jetset and Flacon and they told me that she’s the daughter to a worthless infiltrator! They also told me that she desired to be one as well, but nobody will hire her because of her Phantom heritage. To think that someone actually found an infiltrator attractive and what’s worse is. They actually wanted to get them pregnant. Disgusting!” Ellie snaps.

“But I don’t see what the problem is. It shouldn’t matter who you are. When you’re in love, then your in love. I mean look at me. I’m a hardened soldier, yet I might end up becoming a mother one day.” Ulla says.

“That’d be different.” Ellie replies.

“How exactly?”

“Because you wouldn’t be one of HER!” Ellie glares at Blink.

“Back up a second, who’s Jetset and Falcon?” Blink wonders.

“Oh come on, don’t pretend like you don’t know! The one with the black armour who’s an absolute beast when it comes to hunting infiltrators and the one with the bird shaped helmet!” In Ellie’s anger, she’s just given Blink exactly what she wanted.

“So, this Falcon woman was the one who abducted my daughter. Thanks for the info.” Blink thinks to herself.

“Fair enough. But I didn’t realise that someone like you would stupe so low as to hurting children though.” Ulla states.

“What are you talking about? I’d never hurt a child.” Ellie scoffs.

“So you don’t like the fact that Blink’s daughter was abducted by the Phantoms?” Ulla quizzes.

“HAHAHA! Wow, is that what she told you? You need to learn something! Infiltrators are LIARS and DECEIVERS, they’ll say anything and do anything to get themselves out of bother and she has you hook, line and sinker.” Ellie laughs.

“You think I’m lying?” Blink asks.

“Yeah, I think your daughter’s safe and sound and even if she’s not…….It’s YOUR fault for being such a TERRIBLE MOTHER in the first place!” Ellie gloats.

“You………You fucking bitch!” Blink grabs Ellie by her uniform and in her sheer rage, she manages to lift Ellie off the floor, even though she’s tied to a chair and slams her against the wall.

“What’s the matter Blink, is the truth a tough pill to swallow? Face it, you’re a disgrace to motherhood, you failed your daughter, you failed in this life and I just think you should do the world AND you daughter a favour and just DIE!” Ellie says whilst looking Blink in the eyes.

Blink slams Ellie to the floor and stomps on her stomach causing Ellie to cough and splutter, Blink lifts her foot up again for a second stomp, but Ulla grabs her and restrains her.

“CALM DOWN!” Ulla shouts.

“How dare she….HOW DARE YOU!” Blink snarls at Ellie.

“Listen to me, you need to calm down. You’re giving her exactly what she wants. You’re letting her get to you, don’t you see? The more your reacting, the more she realizes she’s winning, now calm down!” Ulla says.

After a few seconds, Blink takes a few deep breaths and relaxes, after this, Ulla relaxes too and lets Blink go. Ulla once again grabs Ellie by her uniform and violently lifts her up back into the correct seating position.

“You know, I don’t get you? I mean Willow lost her sister. Magda was raped and Cassie was left in the clutches of a cold blooded killer………But you…….YOU……..You got off easy, I mean boo hoo, look at you, you had to spend an hour or two tied up in a cabinet…….You know, compared to the rest of your friends……You got off EASY……Yet look at you, parading around like your some kind of martyr…….Absolutely pathetic and I don’t believe that your mugging was anywhere near as bad as what you claim it to be.” Ulla pokes the bear, hoping to make Ellie confess.

“Got off easy? You really don’t know do you!” Ellie says in a truly venomous tone.

“Well, why don’t you tell me? Go on, educate me.” Ulla says in a calm voice now.

“Your right about that part. I love being an ice cream vendor, it’s nice bringing smiles to peoples faces. I was in a really comfortable position in my life……But one day it seemed an infiltrator thought I could be a quick payday for them…….I was beaten unconscious, stripped and left bound and gagged in a small and cramped cabinet in my own ice cream truck……But that’s not the worse part, no, no……….I was in there for over TWENTY FOUR hours…….I was so scared……It was such a hot day and I was so thirsty for where the cabinet radiated so much heat……..I couldn’t breath properly for where the gag was wrapped so tightly around my mouth…….After the third hour, my body started to cramp……I could feel my feet, my legs, my arms and my hands going numb from where the bonds were just so tight……….My back was in agony from where I was just crammed in that tight space……..It was an airtight cabinet too, so I could feel my breathing getting heavier and heavier as each passed by. I was literally living off of my own breaths. No fresh air, no NOTHING……..But……But….That’s not all that happened.” Ellie bows her head.

“Tell me. What else happened?” Ulla says gently.

“I……I…..I……peed……..Okay, I had no choice……I just……..I just peed myself……..For six long hours……I swam in my own urine………I was ROBBED of my dignity…….I was made to feel LESS than that of an animal………I remember them finding after all those hours later……..I just…….I just never forget the faces they pulled when they saw the condition I was left in……….I just can’t forget the pain I was in…….The Humiliation…….The agony……All of it………I thought that was my end.” Ellie goes quiet.

Ulla nods her head, she knew all of this anyway, but she wanted to hear it from Ellie’s own mouth.

“Look for what it may or may not be worth, I am actually sorry and……”

“NO! You do NOT get to apologise to me as if that’ll somehow make everything better!” Ellie interrupts Blink. “I hate you……I HATE YOU……I hate everything you stand for Blink and I don’t care how long it takes, I WILL get my revenge on you.” Angry tears fall down Ellie’s face.

“It wasn’t me, I didn’t do that to you!” Blink shouts.

“How do I know huh? How could I possibly have known! I just remember getting punched round the back of the head before getting beaten senseless, I couldn’t see my attacker! Even when I woke up, all I could hear was faint and unrecognisable voices from the infiltrator who was impersonating me! It could have been you, so don’t play all nice with me Blink. I know full well that you were just like your sister back in the day. Going around, hurting women, seeing us as little more than targets of opportunities. You didn’t give a damn about any of the women you hurt. So how do I know that wasn’t you Blink?” Ellie states.

“Have you ever mugged an ice cream vendor before and please be honest?” Ulla wonders too.

“I have yes. I’ve mugged a few in my time when my sister and I were pulling off petty thefts. But I swear, I don’t remember you.” Blink replies.

“HA! Why would you, it is as I said. You don’t give a damn.” Ellie says seemingly victorious.

“I swear, I don’t remember you, plus look at us, your uniform wouldn’t have even fitted me, so I wouldn’t have mugged you to begin with!......But……Please know that I am genuinely sorry for what has happened to you in the past.” Blink tries to find some common grounds.

“Apologies are just merely words and words are such easy things to use. If you truly are sorry, then why don’t you prove it to me with actions and if you can prove it to me, then I just might help you find your supposed missing daughter……MAYBE!” Ellie says with a wicked smile.

“Fine, you want actions, then I’ll give you actions, how can I prove to you then, that I’m sorry for what has happened to you?” Blink wonders.

“Your sister Knipperen……..Trick her……tie her up in a tight walled off area, like a well or something, make sure it’s pitch black and leave her there a couple of days. Seal off the openings and let her suffocate nice and slowly……Inject her with laxatives so she too has to squirm around in her own filth like I had too…….Let her see what it’s like to be one of the women who she mugs……..Then I’ll help you…….Maybe, Haha!” Ellie sickening gloats.

Ulla notices Blink’s made a fist with her finger and her hands are trembling, she’s about to fly into a spiralling rage.

“WHOA! Okay, okay, let’s not have any of that.” Ulla quickly grabs Blink’s hands before she can strike. “Go outside, grab just five minutes of fresh air and come back with a clear head, because let me tell you something. If you strike her, you’re just proving her correct. So please, let me have just five minutes alone with her and I’ll see what I can do.” Ulla speaks softly in Blink’s ear.

“Five minutes, but if she says anything again about me being a bad mother, I’ll kick her teeth down her throat.” Blink’s whispers angrily.

“Understood.” Ulla opens the door and Blink walks out. Ulla then closes the door again and is now left alone with Ellie. “You know, I actually do harbour sympathy for you and I must admit, I’m sorry for what you went through I really am too……but here’s the thing…….I really DON’T like you.” Ulla says with a calm yet harsh tone.

“As if I care.” Ellie replies.

“No, you don’t care do you. Your just filled with hatred that it really is eating away at your very being isn’t it. I mean look at the facts here. An innocent child’s life is in danger and I’m trying to find a compromise or maybe even a peaceful solution here so we can rescue this child. But you are just so vindictive and so revenge-driven that you are willing to let a child suffer, just so you can hurt Blink. Despite the fact that there is no evidence or proof which points to Blink being the one who mugged you in the past anyway.” Ulla points out.

“That’s not the point. ALL infiltrators are a bane on this world that must be eradicated and don’t believe for one second that Blink is being genuine……. infiltrators lie to everyone, including themselves about being genuine. So you can preach to me about Blink being a doting and caring mother, hell you can even preach to me about Tina and her sisters making sure that their victims are found safely……It doesn’t change the fact that the methods that they use are ALL the same! People like Blink will just become role models for future generations of women who think it’s okay to run around hurting other women and stealing their identities. I will NOT allow anymore generations to become infiltrator. The line ends with Blink and Tina’s generation!” Ellie protests.

“So all of this is to you, is just a petty little revenge scheme with no justice at all? Grow up!” Ulla replies.

“Me grow up?! You’re going to have women like Blink raising their daughters with the mindset that it’s okay to run around hurting innocent women, impersonating them and taking everything from them, that they’ve worked so hard to achieve!” Ellie protests further.

“You do know that many of those criminals, gangs and their bosses locked up in Heartfelt’s prison was thanks to Blink stopping them, right? She wants to raise her daughter in a safe and crime free city. Does this sound like a bad person to you?” Ulla asks.

“Then why doesn’t she do it the legal way huh, you know, like a normal person!” Ellie snaps.

“Don’t make me laugh, you really think that with all these corrupt cops and snobby aristocrats running this city, that anyone of them really give a damn about some low-level gangs……You really are in denial.” Ulla gloats.

“There’s no justice is letting people like Knipperen roam free. They can’t be reasoned with. There’s no changing them….Yet we get put in prison whilst she gets to run around committing more crimes?” Ellie states.

“We’re not talking about Knipperen though are we. We’re talking about Blink, a woman who just wants to see her daughter returned safely to her.” Ulla points out.

“Why does Blink still help her sister then, if she really has changed huh?” Ellie remarks.

“You’d be amazed as to what the love of a family member can do to an individual, but who says that Blink follows Knipperen’s plans? Blink is just as strong willed as her sister, which means if she really doesn’t want to hurt anyone. She WON’T!” Ulla replies.

“A leopard can’t change it’s spots.” Ellie smiles.

“Cute…..Very cute. Hey, I have a question for you. I know you all nickname me the siren and all, but what am I to you? In a sense of, what profession do you think I am?” Ulla quizzes.

“You’re a soldier, but I don’t see how that’s relevant.” Ellie scoffs

“Exactly, I’m a soldier! But here’s the kicker. Over these past couple of days, I’ve mugged a total of three women for their clothing so I could pose as them and achieve my goals.” Ulla reveals.

“What?” Ellie says confused.

“Yeah, I’m being honest with you too. For you see, my military training has always boiled down to, adapt and evolve as the situation deems it. So I naturally knew that if I wanted to achieve my goals, I had to adapt to the situation and after I exhausted all the other opitions, the only tactic I had left was to overpower a few women and assume their identities. I left them bound and gagged in their undies and everything……..But I’m NOT an infiltrator…….I’m a soldier, that just had to adapt to the given situation…….Don’t you see what I’m trying to say? You don’t have to be classified as an infiltrator to do infiltration methods. Sometimes things happen that are simply out of your control and like me, your forced to adapt if you wish to succeed……..This also just proves that anyone is capable of doing it……A nurse, a baker, a soldier and even a window cleaner…….Any woman is capable of mugging another woman for her clothing if it revealed that this really is the only way they can achieve what they need to achieve……This doesn’t make them infiltrators, it just means they they’ve taken advantage of the situation.” Ulla explains.

“But……but……That’s different I mean…..”

“IS IT? If a woman is being held hostage and her only way to escape is to overpower a female guard and steal her uniform, so she can get away and escape with her life. Does this make her an infiltrator? NO, it makes her a survivor, yet she still had to use an infiltrator method in order to survive……Do you see what I mean?” Ulla interrupts Ellie.

“I…..I……Uuuummmm.” Ellie doesn’t know how to respond to this statement.

“But I just find it funny that you want to hurt children, even though you said that you were beyond that? But it seems like your really on board with it aren’t you? Seeing as how you’re willing to have your name and identity associated with a group who openly abducts children or worse?” Ulla prods.

“I don’t hurt children, I’m not a monster!” Ellie roars.

“You said actions mean more to you than words didn’t you. So prove it!” Ulla snaps.

“During our campaign, Blink came to my ice cream truck with her daughter. She didn’t know who I was at the time, but she ordered two scoops of ice cream. One for her and one for her daughter…..Now I was SO tempted to poison her ice cream and watch her die……BUT……I was genuinely scared that her daughter might have asked to have a lick of her mother’s ice cream, so I chose not to. Purely because I didn’t want her daughter to get hurt…..Or worse.” Ellie opens up.

“Are you telling me the truth?” Ulla ponders.

“I am, I swear. You can even ask my friends. They know I wouldn’t hurt a child.” Ellie replies, seemingly calmer.

“Then help me save Blink’s daughter. If not for her, then at least do it for Shannon’s sake.” Ulla now says softly.

Ellie doesn’t respond……

“Your friends are waiting for you outside and I think you’ll find that they too don’t want to see a child getting harmed. So why don’t you go and talk to them huh?” Due to how unpredictable Ellie could be, Ulla is forced to leave both the ankle cuffs and handcuffs on her to avoid anymore unnecessary fights. She then opens the door and lets Ellie leave.

Ellie sees her friends sitting at a table, to which she quickly hurries over and joins them. Indeed, a couple of things might have resonated with Ellie, but she’s interested to hear just what her friends make of the situation.

Re: Chapter 41: A Clone, A Siren & A Mother

Post by Trackman281 »

Please note: That this is PART THREE. Scroll all the way up to the top for part one! :D

*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

A lone female sentry is hiding behind one of the containers staring at her phone. She is 26 years old, she has sand white skin, she has long as blonde hair styled in what is known as a side swept look, she has grey blue eyes and she is wearing the same uniform as the rest of the sentries on duty. Which is a pair of black military style boots, green fatigue trousers, a green fatigue jacket, a light green shirt underneath, an equipment belt and of course a green fatigue cap. A shotgun has been placed carelessly by the side of the container and an identity patch sewn on her uniform reads “Lexi”.

“Oh nice, this clip is hot.” Lexi says as she watches a video on her phone.

“Damn, I wish I could find someone who could bend me over like that and just have their way with me.” Lexi says to herself, clearly watching a porno on her phone.

Angel appears behind her.

“Excuse me soldier, I need your help and…….What are you doing?” Angel has just realised that the sentry is watching a porno.

“Aaahhh! Oh god, eerrmm hi, I didn’t think anyone was coming down here, look this isn’t what it looks like I eerrmm.” Lexi quickly switches off her phone and turns bright red.

Although it seems Lexi is about to get the distraction she so desperately needs as Angel is merely distracting her whilst Tina sneaks up behind her.

“Hhhuurrkkkk!” Tina wraps her arms around Lexi and swiftly applies a sleeper hold on the unsuspecting sentry. Lexi kicks her feet around and tries to best to pull Tina’s arms off of her, but alas, all she does is just make Tina’s job that much easier as she wastes precious energy flailing around. Moments later, Lexi’s eyes roll to the back of her head, and she makes a few faint, but noticeable grunts and moans before she succumbs to the sleeper hold and drifts off to slumberland. Tina quickly checks her to make sure she’s asleep, then once she’s satisfied, she gets back to her feet before she picks up Lexi in carries her bridal style.

“Was she looking at porn?” Tina wonders.

“Yep, and judging by of how loud those moans were getting, I’d say she was nearly at the end.” Angel says as she picks up Lexi’s phone with just one of her index fingers and thumbs, as she doesn’t exactly feel like touching this phone as she has no idea what Lexi does with it in her…..Personal…..Time.

“I don’t even want to imagine what we might have seen if we were just ten seconds later.” Tina says turning pale as the idea makes her slightly sick.

“It’s best not thinking about.” Angel says whilst pulling a disgusted face as she carries Lexi’s phone.

They return to their initial hiding spot where BB is still waiting, and Tina gently lays Lexi down. The sisters swiftly strip Lexi of her uniform and when she has been stripped, it is revealed that Lexi is wearing a brick red front open bra and a pair of blush red tanga panties.

Whilst BB gets changed into Lexi’s uniform, both Tina and Angel tie up the slumbering sentry. Seeing as how Lexi was already kind enough to have some zip ties on her, the sisters thought they might as well put them to use and swiftly zip tied Lexi’s wrists and ankles together, they then grabbed a roll of Tinker’s home-made tape and swiftly wrapped layer after layer of it all around Lexi’s body until she was done up like a museum mummy. The tape was wrapped around the bottom of her legs and went up all the way to the tops of her shoulders, naturally they used the last slither of tape as a gag and swiftly stuck it over Lexi’s mouth. Finally, Angel opened up an empty barrel and quickly lined with a nice soft blanket so Lexi wouldn’t get any splinters from the barrel, should she wake up early. Tina then lifts the tightly bound and gagged Lexi before she gently places her inside the barrel and closes the lid. Although she makes sure that she leaves enough room for fresh air to circulate, Tina also makes a mental note as to where she is hidden so she knows where to tell the authorities later.

BB emerges wearing her disguise and although it doesn’t quite fit her properly, she does feel more comfortable than what she did in the business suit she was wearing moments before. The three sisters then give each other a fist bump each before they make their way into the building itself.

Using their disguises, getting into the small office building itself was easy as naturally all the sentries thought that Tina, Angel and BB were just simply their colleagues going on a coffee break. Once inside the three sisters found Lisa’s main office and approached the door.

“Excuse me ma’am, we have an urgent matter we need to discuss with you.” Tina says whilst knocking on the door.

“Very well, but make it quick, I have a lot of work to do.” Lisa replies.

The three sisters enter the room to which Angel locks the door when they are all inside. Lisa looks up and sees the three sisters baring down on her.

“Don’t worry, we’ll make this as quick as we can.” Tina states.

“What’s the meaning of this? What’s going on?” Lisa says trying to understand the situation.

BB places a bunch of documents down on Lisa table and slides them towards her. Lisa picks them up and quickly reads through them, she then turns as white as a sheep.

“I’m guessing by the look on your face, you know what those documents are.” BB observes. To which, Lisa just nods her head slightly. “Perfect, then this should go a lot smoother than expected. So, we want to know who the supplier is who’s shipping all this equipment into Heartfelt City.” BB continues.

“I can’t tell you that, even if I wanted to.” Lisa replies nervously.

“I respect your whole client confidentiality policy and everything. But we both know that those shipments aren’t legal and some of that shipment was intended to be used on us, if it wasn’t for the fact that we managed to sabotage it. So I highly advise you start talking.” Tina demands.

“No, you can’t scare me, for I…..Wwwaaahhh!” Lisa is suddenly lifted up into the air by BB before she is pinned against the wall and because of BB’s size, she’s able to lift Lisa fairly far off the ground.

“Please understand that we honestly don’t want to do this to you. But you’re not exactly innocent are you. I bet if we did a full check on what actually happens in this part of the docks, we’d find some rather disturbing things wouldn’t we.” Angel says calmly.

“Exactly. Like things, you need to hire a private security force to safeguard and keep isolated from the rest of the workers.” BB points out.

“No. No, please don’t hurt me, you didn’t let me finish. I actually can’t tell you because the client paid in cash and I never once actually met them, I only ever met with individuals on their payroll. I swear!” Lisa cracks immediately after stating she apparently doesn’t scare easily.

“Cash……..Great, that means there’s no paper trail or anything.” Tina shakes her head in disbelief.

“Then at least tell us the name of the client. Give us something to work with.” Angel suggests.

“I’m just the middle woman in all of this. My job was to make sure the deliveries reached here intact. Once they arrived, I was to keep them safe until the buyers came. They’d then give me my money and I could then release the goods into their care. That was it!” Lisa grovels.

“You really don’t know anything do you.” Tina shakes her head. “Okay sis, you can put her down now.” Tina nods at BB.

BB gently puts Lisa back on the ground to which she quickly scurries behind her desk.

“All I know is that judging by the amount of stock they were supplying and the amount of money I was getting. Whoever you’ve annoyed, seems to really have it in for you.” Lisa says.

“So it seems.” BB then notices that Lisa is quite a fairly tall woman. “You know I’ve just noticed this, but you’re quite a tall woman.” BB continues.

“So what?” Lisa replies confused.

“Well, we do enjoy brining corrupt fools like you to justice and as I’m sure you know being a fairly tall woman yourself, sometimes it can be hard to find clothes that actually fit you can’t it?.” BB hints.

“What do you mean? What do you want?” Lisa says, clearly not taking the hint.

“I want your clothes.” BB replies.

Lisa gulps hard and her eyes widen……..Ten minutes later…………

BB adjusts the white suit blazer in the office mirror and smiles to herself.

“This is so much better, I actually feel comfortable wearing this.” BB says as she finishes putting on Lisa’s clothes, before admiring herself in the mirror.

“I think you look great sis, don’t you agree Lisa?” Tina turns around.

“Yyyyeeemmmpphh………uuhhuuummm.” Lisa nods her head vigorously, but with that gag in her mouth it’s hard for to speak at the moment.

Lisa has been stripped down to her frost white butt booster panties and her garnet red push up bra. She’s been bound tightly to her office chair with several bonds securing her upper body to the chair itself with several bonds securing her arms and hands to the chair as well. Multiple bonds have also been used to secure her legs to the seat of the chair and an additional bond has bene used to tie her ankles together. Finally, a big thick piece of Tinker’s home-made tape has been firmly stuck on her mouth, thus gagging her in the process.

“Our sister has also taken the liberty in digging up some of your old transactions from the clients who didn’t pay with cash, and we’ve uploaded them to the public servers, so I’m sure the police will enjoy having a good read of those when they arrive. Which, judging by the sounds of those sirens closing in, should be any minute now.” Tina reveals.

“Nnnoommpphh……Ppppwweeesshhhh!” Lisa tries to plea through her gag as she shakes her head rapidly.

But the three sisters just ignore her pleas and leave the office with the door wide open, so the police know exactly where to go. Lisa is left wriggling around on her chair in her undies, just waiting for the inevitable.

Tina didn’t just phone the police to tell them about Lisa’s illegal activities, she also made sure to tell them where the other women they’ve replaced are, so they can be found safe and sound. With the trail officially coming to a dead end for now, Tina, Angel and BB return back to the hotel to rejoin the rest of their sisters. But as soon as they enter the hotel room, it seems their day is not over yet as Tinker swiftly turns to them.

“Hey, you’re never going to believe who I currently have a line open with.” Tinker says.

“Is it Kheshig by any chance?” Tina replies as she slips off the sentries’ boots.

“I wish.” Tinker switches on the loudspeaker for all of her sisters to hear.

“Well, well. Tina and her goodie, goodie sisters. I must admit, I didn’t expect to find myself talking to you so soon.” Knipperen says over the channel.

“What do you want Knipperen?” Tina gets straight to the point.

“It’s about my sister.” Knipperen starts to say.

“If this is about the fact that Shannon has been abducted, then I assure we already know and we’re doing our best to find a way to help her.” Tina immediately states.

“Why am I not surprised you already know that. But no, you see. Blink has linked up with this Phantom deserter who was supposed to help her get to Shannon. Blink wanted me to follow her to keep and eye on her and for a time everything was going according to plan. The Phantom was holding her end of the bargain and she left to go and retrieve my sister a disguise……but when she left, that psychiatrists wet dream, Ulla appeared being closely followed by that twilight fan club of hers……..They’ve raided the outpost and I’ve lost contact with Blink.” Knipperen explains.

“Some sister you are. Why don’t you go in and rescue her?” Angel says angrily.

“Because I’m currently impersonating a Phantom and I can’t get close enough…..Plus I don’t want to blow my cover…….Besides. I know that you all think the world of my sister as do I, so I also know that you won’t allow her to be injured in any shape or form.” Knipperen speaks the truth.

The sisters all look at Tina and she knows that if Blink really does need assistance, then they want to help her. Tina feels the same way too, as it is true. The sisters have started to view Blink as a very close ally. They know that she’s trying her best to be a good mother for Shannon and they know that Blink is struggling a lot in this life. So if they can help her in anyway possible. Then they always will.

“Gives us the coordinates.” Tina replies. The rest of the sisters all smile with delight.

“I’ve activated a tracking beacon just outside the outpost, follow it’s coordinates, and it will take you straight to it……Don’t worry, I’ll be very close by as well.” But before they can talk any further, Knipperen ends the transmission.

“Okay then. Let’s suit up. Grab our gear and fill up some bags with some restraints and anything else we might need.” Tina says as she starts to get changed into another catsuit.

“I know what Ulla’s like. She won’t hurt Blink, she’s just lost. So please, when we come face to face with Ulla, let me talk to her. She’ll listen to me, because I listened to her, so I know her.” Angel insists.

“If I see Ulla even raise a single finger towards you, I won’t hold back and I’ll break her arm.” Mag says putting a hand on Angel’s shoulder.

“Same here, I’ve got your back.” Soph says with a nod.

“We all have. So yes, you can talk to her if you think your able to, but please know that if she tries anything. We won’t hold back and we will protect you.” Tina says as she puts her hand on Angel’s other shoulder.

Angel being Angel, then spins around and grabs both Tina and Mag before pulling them in for a massive hug. “I know you will and I’ll always protect you too.” Angel says as she embraces her sisters in her arms.

Minutes later, the nine sisters are all equipped and ready to go. Tinker sets up a tracker and show her sisters the location of where the beacon is pinging it’s coordinates. With that, they leave the hotel and head for outpost zeta.

************************************************************************************************************************************

“So they really did take her didn’t they. I can see it in your eyes. I can tell that you’re not lying.” Louette says to Blink.

“Hhhmm you seem quite rational compared to the others.” Ulla sits down and scans her data pad. “So you are Louette Peeters. You worked as a nightclub bouncer until you were mugged for your clothes by an infiltrator who was looking for an easy payday and wanted to steal all the money from tills. Okay it says here that you are quite good in hand to hand combat and your quite a descent shot with a rifle. Very nice.” Ulla puts the pad down and approaches Louette.

“Listen, if you’ve touched or hurt any of my friends, especially Cassie, I’ll make you pay.” Louette glares at Ulla.

“Save me all your tough woman speeches, you had your opportunity earlier and I took you down quicker than a fat person realizing there’s only one hotdog left at the buffet table.” Ulla says in a calm and actually polite sounding voice.

“Your special forces, that’s hardly a fair though is it.” Louette shrugs.

“Even so. But anyway, I think I’ve actually got all the information I needed from your friends, so if it’s all the same to you, I actually need your help with something else.” Ulla lifts up her mask so Louette can see her face.

“With that exactly?” Louette asks suspiciously.

“Well. Understanding it all. I don’t understand the whole infiltrator thing. I thought infiltrators were mercenaries. You know, we actually have infiltrators back in Sweden and most of them just work for our local governments. But here on this side of the world, they seem to be completely different……Bounty hunter guilds are paying top credits for them…….You have several different kinds of infiltrators. Some are revered as heroes whilst other as demons……But it’s not just here in Heartfelt, I know of several other locations of where infiltrators are the same over there too. So please, enlighten me with all of this?.........What makes an infiltrator…..Well, an infiltrator……Is it…….The mindset? The wanting to steal another woman’s clothing? Do they have identity issues and by impersonating all these different women, they might finally find who they want to be in life? Are they all just petty thieves? Do they get sexual fulfilment for overpowering other women and tying them up half naked? What am I missing?” Ulla genuinely wonders.

“In truth, I’m not really sure. For as long as Heartfelt City has existed, there’s always been infiltrators. Some believe that this city is just a beacon for them. Others believe that it’s because of the population difference. For instance, in this city, for every one male, there are ten females. So naturally a lot of the city’s population are Female, which means nine out of ten jobs have female workers, which also means it’s incredibly easy for infiltrators to impersonate them.” Louette explains.

“But I still don’t fully get it.” Ulla quizzes.

“I’m sorry, that’s really all I can tell you myself.” Louette admits.

“Well that was enlightening wasn’t it.” Ulla says sarcastically. “Now I also see that you during your initial campaign, you had your wrist and hand broke in several places, yet when the paramedics arrived, you were already bandaged up and healed perfectly. I understand that all of your bones have made a full and successful recovery and you haven’t suffered any aftermath. So would you care to explain to me, how this came to be?” Ulla prods.

“It was two of Tina’s sisters. The one’s called Soph and Marie. They healed me.” Louette admits.

“Even though you tried to kill them and even though that apparently, you labelled them as evil?” Ulla prods further.

“Yes…..Look, I can’t explain it. But even after everything we put them through, they STILL wanted to heal me and help me recover.” Louette closes her eyes.

“Hhhhmmm. The fact that they wanted to do that, just proves that they’re not exactly the bad people you’re claiming them to be now are they?” Ulla shrugs.

“No…….I guess……..I guess not in that sense.” Louette shakes her head.

“You guess? You saw all the gangs, the criminals and the corrupt people inside the prison didn’t you. I also know, that YOU know, that all of them are there because Tina and her sisters brought them to justice. Even Blink is responsible for putting a load of those gangs in jail………Now look. I’m NOT condoning what happened to you or your friends, I’m really not……I’m just saying that don’t you think you might have targeted the wrong people here?.............I’m not saying that ALL of these so called infiltrators are like Tina and her sisters, because their really not. I’ve seen some of them be brought into jail who are absolute scum and deserve to be locked up for life……But you know, and I know that the nine sisters are NOT like them………I’m not saying you have to agree with their methods at all. I’m just saying that at the end of the day, can’t you take some solace in knowing that Tina and her sisters will never kill anyone and that it doesn’t matter who they mug. They always contact the authorities and make sure that they get found safe and sound?” Ulla quizzes.

“Did Cassie tell you that part?” Louette wonders.

“Yes she did, because Cassie has seen it with her own eyes hasn’t she. She watched as Marie saved a woman who had been shot by the very infiltrator who originally tormented Cassie. As you know, I’m talking about Mary Clyde here……Now look…….Mary is in jail and the woman who Marie saved is making a full recovery in hospital…..Why can’t you see that they are NOT the bad one’s in all of this?” Ulla is genuinely confused at this point.

“I have no idea how to answer your question, so I’ll just say this. We want to help people. We want to make women in this society feel safe! So they don’t have to feel scared in going to work and worry about if their going to get mugged for their clothing or maybe even killed for their clothing.” Louette protests slightly.

“I appreciate that, and I even appreciate your goals. But again, my argument still stands. You know that Tina and her sisters don’t perform petty heists and they also realize that there are other threats Heartfelt faces, so they are doing their best and using everything at their disposal to try and make the streets safe again……Without being funny……..But it sounds like you and them have more in common that what you may think?” Ulla shrugs again.

“You know, you keep speaking to me and going on at me as if we only targeted Tina and her sisters. But we didn’t, in case you didn’t know we also brought justice to some of the very infiltrators who brought pain and suffering to both my friends and many other women, and no! I’m not just talking about Blink either!” Louette is quick to point out.

“Yes, I was just getting to them actually. Their names are Helen Jacomy and Bonnie Corday, correct?” Ulla looks at a data pad.

“Yes. We showed them exactly how it felt to be us!” Louette justifies.

“Now I admit, capturing those two was a good thing you did, BUT. You then went and destroyed your good deed by trying to kill them, you were so close to doing the right thing, only to throw it all away at the last moment by trying to kill them.” Ulla jabs.

“We gave them, exactly what they deserved.” Louette remarks.

“I see, so you wanted the whole, eye for an eye thing, did you? What I’m hearing you say is………We stooped to their level and became no better than them.” Ulla puts her bed down on the floor.

“We’re better than those two, that’s for sure! Besides, don’t lecture me about taking lives, when I just saw you wipe out a whole corridor of Phantoms.” Louette scoffs.

“That’s different. I’m a soldier, we are at war and the Phantoms are enemy combatants. I don’t harm civilians, I only harm enemy soldiers. When soldiers go to war and kill other soldiers, they don’t then get arrested and charged for murder do they. Because this is what a soldier does. But YOU and your friends, are not soldiers. You were being the judge, juries and executioners when you had no right to be. So at the end of the day, you were breaking the law just as much as the women you were hunting…….And you call yourselves inspirations……..If I had a daughter, I’d be appalled if she viewed you as an example for justice.” Ulla explains.

“Look, we’re not evil and we’re not bad people either. We just want to do good in the world…….But at the same time……We’d never allow a child to be harmed…..Even if she is the daughter of an infiltrator……She can’t help who she born too…….There are just lines you do not cross and the Phantoms seem pretty okay with crossing them……Even Ellie would never harm a child, she knows better than that. Now I don’t mind lending a hand if you need, but this is purely because I don’t want to see a child in danger.” Louette defends herself and her friends.

“Good, that’s all I needed to hear.” Ulla unshackles Louette’s ankle cuffs but keeps her handcuffs on for the time being. “Your friends are all safe out sound out there, you can go and join them now if you like. I want you all to discuss everything that we’ve talked about, and I want you all to give me your honest opinion on this situation. I’m giving you half an hour, then I want an answer. Am I understood?” Ulla asks.

“Fully, I’ll go talk to them now.” But as Louette walks passed, Ulla suddenly puts a hand on Louette’s shoulder to stop her for a second.

“Speaking of Ellie…….I highly advise that you keep a very close eye on her…..She’s in danger of going down an extremely dark path…..A similar path to that which Sarah seems to have gone down…….Now if you really do care for her, like you say you do. Then look after her……The rest of you seem to have potential……But Ellie is in danger from herself, okay.” Ulla adds a she lets go of Louette’s shoulder.

Louette doesn’t respond but just continues to walk outside……When she gets out of the room, a big smile goes across her face as she notices that all of her friends are safe and sound and most importantly, she sees that Cassie perfectly fine and is sitting comfortably next to Willow. Louette immediately walks over and sits down right next to Cassie.

“Are you alright?” Louette says to Cassie.

“Yeah, I’m actually, they didn’t hurt me or anything.” Cassie says with confidence.

Louette breaths a sigh of relief over this. She then allows herself a moment or two to absorb the situation and absorb everything that has been said. She then looks at each member of the white masks in the eyes, before she puts her hands on the table.

“I think we have things we need to discuss don’t we.”

************************************************************************************************************************************

Elisha enters her room, annoyed with herself. She’s sits down on her bed and removes her helmet, before she brushes a hand through her hair. Moments later, a knock at her door is heard.

“Come in.” Elisha calls out. The door opens and Kheshig walks in sighing heavily.

“We’ve got a problem.” Kheshig exclaims.

“Tell me about it, I’m trying to find a spare uniform to give to Blink, but I don’t think the new shipment has arrived yet as I can’t find any. I’m not sure what to do.” Elisha says as she ponders.

“No this is worse. I intercepted an transmission close by. It seems Blink’s sister is nearby.” Kheshig checks her feed.

“Knipperen?” Elisha replies.

“Yeah, but not only that, but it seems she’s contacted the nine sisters and they are on their way to outpost Zeta.” Kheshig replies.

“Now? But we’re not ready yet. We haven’t got everything in place.” Elisha says with a worried tone.

“That’s not even the worst of it. It seems that the siren and some of her soldiers have currently taken over zeta as well.” Kheshig says whilst shaking her head.

“Great. Now what do we do?” Elisha remarks.

“We need to get down there and see if we can prevent a brawl, otherwise if the other Phantoms get wind of what’s happening, we won’t stand a chance at starting a coupe. Now because I manged to intercept Knipperen’s transmission first, I’ve isolated it and prevented it from being discovered, but we should move quickly. I need a couple of minutes to get set up, then come and meet me by the main entrance, we will use one of the main trucks to get everyone inside.” Kheshig turns to leave.

“I’ll see you there.” As Kheshig leaves, she turns to Shannon who is sitting on Elisha’s desk chair colouring a picture.

“Can I finally see my mum now?” Shannon asks politely.

“Of course, sweetie, as a matter of fact. I’m going to go and get her right now. So please, just sit and keep quiet like a good girl and I promise. The next time that door opens, the first you’ll see, will be your mother.” Elisha says with a smile.

“I hope so, because I really miss her.” Shannon bows her head.

“I know you do honey, I know you do. But just a couple more hours, then you’ll be with her again.” Elisha makes sure Shannon is comfortable before she outs her helmet back on and leaves her room, locking her door in the process. This is purely for Shannon’s own safety and to make sure none of the other Phantoms find her.

She rushes off to join Kheshig. Elisha knows that she wasn’t able to acquire a spare uniform for Blink to disguise herself, this means that they will have to improvise when the time comes.

***********************************************************************************************************************************

“Ulla, I don’t trust these women at all. They were going to kill me and they would have succeeded if my sister hadn’t managed to contact Tina and her sisters just in time.” Blink speaks to Ulla privately.

“I know, I heard about all of that, but it seems to you managed to get a little payback as I see you managed to knock out Ellie.” Ulla replies.

“That’s not the point. The point is, is that they had me tied to a chair with a bomb underneath it, they were going to kill me! I had never even met a single one of them before that day, yet they were still willing to blow me up all the same and they knew full well that I had a daughter and that didn’t even phase them in the slightest! The white masks are monsters. Their savages, so you’ll excuse me if I don’t exactly look at them with any hope.” Blink continues.

“I understand and believe me. If I was in your shoes, I wouldn’t be viewing the situation any differently and I’d be feeling the exact same way you would be too. But right now, they are our best shot at finding your daughter. I know, I know, that you said that one of the Phantoms is helping you already, but this just increases our chances and besides, look at them.” Ulla and Blink look at the white masks who are sitting on a table, quietly talking amongst themselves. “They’re not Phantoms. They don’t embody their ideologies or their philosophies, their just lost and need someone to show them the line between light and dark. Their campaign was a noble one to a degree, but it failed in other aspects. So I’m going to be the one to hopefully make them see.” Ulla explains.

“How noble, but I still don’t trust them.” Blink retorts.

“Fair enough, I doubt I could either, if I went through what you went through with them.” Ulla walks up to the white masks table. Okay, that’s thirty minutes. Start talking.” Ulla slams her hand down on the table.

The white masks all look at each other before looking at Louette. She in turn looks to Willow to which Willow herself closes her eyes and nods in acceptance, before Louette turns back to meet Ulla’s eyes.

“Despite what you may think of us and how you may view us. We don’t want to be known as those women who were part of that group who kidnaps children. So yes, we will help you, but we can only do so much.” Louette firmly states.

“Good enough, okay stand up, then get’s these shackles off you. Oh, and if you bite me or any of my soldiers again, you’ll be eating your next meal through a straw.” Ulla glares at Ellie. But Ellie just rolls her eyes.

As their cuffs are being taken off, Magda stares straight at Blink. “HEY! If this turns out to be some trick or something, make no mistake Blink. I will murder you myself!” Magda says with an angry tone.

“Don’t worry, this isn’t exactly a joyride for me either. Besides if you really think that I would pretend that my daughter’s life is in jeopardy? Then wow! You apparently don’t know me as well as what you think.” Blink replies.

After their cuffs had all been removed, the white masks follow Ulla, Izanagi and the crows outside the outpost, but as soon they leave, Ulla hears a whispering sound. She quickly shifts her body sideways and a black ball goes hurtling passed her head and smacks into a tree behind her. Ulla turns to see Stasis loading an additional ball into her slingshot. She’s not alone either as all of her sisters are gathered round her staring at them.

“Captain Ulla, we’ve never had the pleasure of meeting face to face, but I know that you already know my sisters Angel and Mag.” Tina says as she stands in the center of the pack.

“Why am I not surprised as well to see those white mask savages working alongside the Phantoms.” Mag says in a venomous tone as she notices the white masks.

“Wait, it isn’t what it looks like.” Ulla blurts out.

“Oh no? Then what is it, SUPPOSED to look like?” Mag rebuffs.

“Please calm down Mag. Ulla is speaking the truth.” Blink steps forward.

Blink makes her way over to the sisters and when she gets there she’s immediately greeted by both Tina and Angel, who both proceed to wrap their arms around her and give us a massive hug.

“We’re so sorry about what happened. How are you? How are you holding up?” Tina asks as she locks Blink in her arms.

“Not good Tina……..Not good at all……..They took my baby!” Blink tears up and leans into Tina and Angel’s bodies and accepts their embrace.

“Well we’re going to help you get her back.” Angel says as she too holds Blink tightly in her arms.

“How did you find us anyway?” Ulla asks.

“I don’t think that’s relevant is it. Now what’s up with the white masks?” Soph glares at them.

“We were conscripted yesterday, but understand that if we knew just how they operated and the methods they use, we would have turned our back and walked away.” Louette replies before Ulla can speak.

“I don’t believe you, this sort of thing fits exactly with what you all stand for.” Soph says, rightfully sceptical.

“No it doesn’t! We believe that being in a mindset and not something that gets passed down through the bloodline! We also hate the idea of abducting children to use them as bait, that’s disgusting!” Louette snaps back.

“You’re telling me, that the white masks actually HAVE standards and lines that even they don’t cross.” Mag scoffs.

“Think of us what you will, we know who we are and we know what we do and what we don’t stand for.” Louette now says in a calming tone.

As the groups somewhat talk things over, Ulla notices Angel and immediately feels relieved to see her. “Angel.” Ulla whispers. Willow herself hears her says this and also turns to see Angel too, to which a wave of thoughts rush over her mind.

“Angel, you know I never got a chance to thank you.” Ulla says as she walks over to her.

“Why do you need to thank me?” Angel says as she still comforts Blink.

“Because you saved my life.” Ulla replies.

“You don’t need to thank me for that. I saw that you were in trouble, so I wanted to help you.” Angel says with a smile.

“I know, but it just wouldn’t feel right if I didn’t at least thank you. I know this isn’t the time or the place, but once we’ve rescued Shannon, could you explain to me, why you decided to save me? I need to know just what you saw in me and I’m not the only one either. It seems that the one called Willow over there could use some answers too.” Ulla nods in Willow’s general direction.

“Of course, I’m more than happy to help you with what ever you need.” Angel says but she still refuses to let Blink out of her arms.

“Thank you. Hey Tina, can I have a word you with you, leader to leader?” Ulla asks.

“Hell no! There’s no way I’m letting you go alone with her.” Mag says getting in between them.

“I just want to talk to her that’s all, there’s something urgent she needs to know.” Ulla replies.

“If it’s that urgent or that important, then I’m sure you wouldn’t mind saying it for us all to hear.” Tina points out.

“Please……..It’s about Anna.” Ulla whispers.

Tina and Mag look at each other. “Fine.” Tina replies.

“I’m coming with you.” Mag insists.

“Very well.” Ulla says as she remembers just how protective of each other the nine sisters really are.

Tina, Mag and Ulla go behind a part of the outpost that’s a bit more reclusive.

“Well it’s very nice to meet you at long last Tina. Or should I say………..CI-1138?” Ulla immediately blurts out.

Both Mag and Tina look at each other with concern. “Yes, I was in the army, congratulations, you know my designation number.” Tina attempts to call Ulla’s bluff.

“Well, that would be correct if you were ever in the army. But I know that the C in your title stands for Clone.” Ulla remarks.

“A clone? My god, do you have any idea how preposterous that sounds? This isn’t Star Wars you know.” Tina again attempts to call Ulla’s bluff.

“I thought that as well first. But then I was led to a series of underground levels at Anna’s company where I saw hundreds, possibly even thousands of women who looked exactly like you. Except most of them were very uniform, obedient, very cut and copy replicas of one another…….They were slaves.” Ulla explains.

Mag and Tina look at each other worryingly.

“It was there that I met three lovely ladies. CO-5052, CO-1284 and even your own commander herself, CO-1010. They explained everything to me, right up until the point where the Phantoms attacked, and you and your sisters were forced to escape.” Ulla looks at Tina.

“So what are you going to do with this information?” Tina wonders.

“Nothing!” Ulla immediately replies. This causes Mag and Tina to look at each other in confusion. “Please understand that I’m actually happy that you did manage to break free. Those clone officers explained everything to me. How you were raised, how you lived, how you were treated. How the moment they discovered you had individuality, you were immediately shunned and banned from interacting with the rest of the clones. They explained to me of how the standard troopers distant themselves from you too, but this was probably due to their conditioning and their brainwashing since birth. I know it ALL Tina. None of you were even allowed to have names. Your designation numbers WERE your names…….You were slaves…..All of you……….The infiltrators, the troopers and even the officers……Your all slaves, yet only you and your sisters could see this Tina………So I’m happy you escaped, because you weren’t living in a home. You were living in a prison.” Ulla says based on the information she was told by the clone officers from before.

“Thank you. My sister’s safety will always be my only priority in this life, so getting them all to safety was my number one goal when the Phantoms attacked.” Tina says standing tall.

“I know. You and your sisters share such an unbreakable bond. You’re a family through and through and I admire the hell out of that.” Ulla says with confidence.

“Is there anything else you wish to spring on us?” Mag asks wearingly.

“Actually yes. It seems that I need your help, as Anna is planning to make a dozen clones. Of ME.” Ulla states.

“What? How do you know?” Tina wonders.

“Because I’ve seen the tubes, they had about a dozen of them. Plus, they’ve taken several of my DNA samples, including my hair, my skin, my saliva and my blood. All of which without my consent. Their doing something called operation turnover.” Ulla explains.

“So it seems that their planning a second batch of clones, I mean we know that Soph is part of the second batch, but I guess their looking for a new genetic template for the commander. I mean, we know that Maryse was a hell of an infiltrator, and she was a hell of a soldier back in the day too. But she had so much independence and so much free will, that a lot of that was inadvertently passed on to the clone officers and even more of that was passed on to us. So she must be trying to find a suitable template to create the perfect batch of clone officers.” Tina works out.

“Yep, and it seems that I’m on the top of her list for potential candidates.” Ulla says with a nod.

“We need to investigate this further, but as where things stand right now. We need to save Shannon and stop the Phantoms.” Tina says whilst looking at Mag.

“Agreed.” Both Mag and Ulla reply.

“Oh and don’t worry. I’m keeping the fact that your clones a secret, I’m not even going to tell the Crows.” Ulla states.

“Thank you.” Tina replies before all three ladies walk back around.

Thankfully it seems that while they were having their discussion, there seems to still be peace. Yes they are still talking to each other, but it seems that Tina’s sisters, the white masks and Ulla’s squad are all sticking to their corners for now and no one is at each other’s throats…….For now.

“Hey Tina, can I ask? How did you know where we were?” Blink asks as Tina come back over.

“Knipperen told us. Don’t worry, she’s close by and keeping an eye on things.” Tina said with a smile.

“Thanks sis.” Blink says as she is happy to hear that Knipperen is still following and still keeping an eye on her.

Common ground would need to be found if they were to work together successfully. So with that, Tina, Ulla and Louette start talking amongst themselves, hoping to find some kind of common grounds so they could all work together successfully. It might take a bit of time, but a compromise can surely be found.

Esercito - Thank you very much! I'm happy that you enjoyed it! :D

Nice! I certainly will tip my hat to you, as you managed to find a picture of a sentry who is wearing the Exact same outfit as I described in my story. Honestly, thank you very much for that! :D

You can see why I chose that style of outfit now can't you. As I do like my military women. :D

I can just ask one thing... Stasis... What kind of inhuman creature brushes her teeth BEFORE breakfast?! :lol:

Now, on to the serious stuff.

I'll start with the infiltration parts, because they're easier to comment on. They provided a good intermission between each 'plot-heavy' part, though you managed to maintain a good pace by not having them dwell on for too long. Including a big amount of uniform stealings is hard when the plot is heavy, and this configuration was a nice trick to feature them. (Also it was a nice trick to have the sisters appear even though their story only connects with Ulla's at the end.) I'll admit that this is not a trick that should be overused, as it means having (at least for some time) completely disjointed storylines, but here it works because it doesn't happen for too long.
As always, good descriptions during these parts, and a good variety of situations / bondage tools / etc.
I appreciated the fact that the uniform thefts included dock workers and a forklift driver; in other words uniforms that are more rarely seen. Varying the uniforms is always a plus. ;) Plus a thank you to esercito sconfitto for the pictures.
The little detail of the victim being revealed to have planned a 'pleasant' night after her shift is always a nice addition, that I enjoy seeing it pop up from time to time. Uniform Stealing stories have developped their own tropes!
A Phantom soldier also FINALLY gets taught a lesson USB-style. And it was worth the wait. Knipperen is writing history today apparently...
Vivia's and Freya's conversation was top-notch. How to set up their personalities with only a few sentences... Plus you found a little detail to make their takedown more memorable. You always manage to do that. I'm impressed. With all the funny banters on the earpieces, this part was definitely memorable. Also, the g-string running gag returns. I sense a great potential in him. :lol:
These are details, but I appreciate how you take into account BB's stature or Angel's blue hair when the situation needs it. Just as I appreciate the details of showing Angel's care towards the women she mugs. Though I think I already praised a lot of times your attention to details.
I can feel Sloane's and River's pain... About the age thing I mean. :lol:
And that scene with Lexi... It needs an 'Always be aware of your surroundings' PSA. 'Cause in a way she's lucky that she was discovered by an infiltrator, and NOT her boss. When being mugged for disguise is the better course of action because the other is being fired... :lol: A little risqué joke, but still a funny situation. Sometimes, I'm wondering if the names are a coincidence or a reference...

Well, now on with the plot... It is getting thicker and thicker.

I'm sensing a 'Tirepanted' inspiration, with the various storylines that are now meeting each other. It definitely has the same advantages, as between all the varying sides, some of them are actually hindering each other without even meaning to. (For instance, Ulla's actions that are actually making things more complicated for Elisha and Kheshig.) Plus, even though they have common goals, the story reminds us that there are a lot of tensions between all these groups. A good way to keep the suspense. Yet, the interactions feel natural. They flow naturally, with enough conflict to be believable, but no forced conflict.

The various conversations between Ulla, Blink, and the White Masks were interesting, and I especially appreciate the fact that you're making the effort to give both sides valid arguments. Even Ellie. Though by now I think I made it clear that this sort of moral dilemnas and these thematics are a personal favorite of mine, so as far as I'm concerned you're 'preaching to the choir'. ;) I know it means that the plot spends a lot of time dwelling on non-USB scenes, but you'll always have my support when you develop your plot. (Also, I'm glad to have been able to help.)

The part with Kheshig and Elisha shows a lot of promise. I'm guessing the arc of the Phantoms will progress a lot in the next few chapters...
I took you down quicker than a fat person realizing there’s only one hotdog left at the buffet table.
That burn... I appreciate it even more on a second reading... Somedy has to call the firemen! :lol:

That's it for now. I'm itching to see how this arc is resolved. Do you have perchance an idea of how many chapters are left?

Trackman, I don't know how you are able to just keep putting out fantastic stories. It is unbelievable how you keep creating story after story and somehow make each one unique and entertaining.

I love the scene with River and Sloane. First of all, the turning 30 discussion is fantastic. I also like that they use a dart on River but use neck chop on Sloane. Interesting touch.

I love the description of River being put out. "River meanwhile stands perfectly still but her upper body start swaying left and right as the knockout drug quickly overpowers her body, rendering her under it’s complete control. “I feel so….So…..Oooooohhhhh.” A big smile goes across River’s face as she somehow seems to be enjoying the feelings that the serum is doing to her. She then falls backwards but Angel is there to catch her, so she doesn’t hit the ground. River falls straight into Angel’s arms fast asleep, yet she still has that big smile across her face." What a great description. There really is something great about the image of a knocked out female guard failing back into the waiting arms of her attacker.

The Lexi scene is great. A sentry not keeping her mind on her job and watching porn instead. Love it.

And of course great to see the idea we discussed being used when Vivia and Freya get darted!

Great story as usual.

Rufusluciusivan - Thank you very much! :D
I can just ask one thing... Stasis... What kind of inhuman creature brushes her teeth BEFORE breakfast?! :lol:
I think we both know the answer to this don't we. ;) As we all know, this is just Stasis being.......Well Stasis. 8-)
(Also it was a nice trick to have the sisters appear even though their story only connects with Ulla's at the end.) I'll admit that this is not a trick that should be overused, as it means having (at least for some time) completely disjointed storylines, but here it works because it doesn't happen for too long.
This chapter was also to highlight the fact that whilst the sisters were waiting for the call from Kheshig to say they can launch their infiltration on the Phantoms main HQ, they thought they might as well hunt around and find out just who the Phantom's business partner was.......Now, this isn't a spoiler so I'm confident in saying this. We will NOT find out who the Phantoms business partner is during this arc. Oh no, I believe that, this is another story best left for another day. But they will find out sooner or later. ;)
I appreciated the fact that the uniform thefts included dock workers and a forklift driver; in other words uniforms that are more rarely seen. Varying the uniforms is always a plus. ;)
Well with so many talented people here in this forum (your awesome self included of course 8-) ), it's difficult to find some uniforms that are rarely seen, so as soon as I discover one, I know I have to feature it quickly before someone beats me to the punch haha. :lol:
A Phantom soldier also FINALLY gets taught a lesson USB-style. And it was worth the wait. Knipperen is writing history today apparently...
Yep, that's it. Not only are the Phantoms officially becoming USB victims now, BUT......Knipperen of all people is the one who gets to stake the claim as the first one to impersonate a Phantom. Something tells me she's going to wear that badge with absolute honour isn't she......I guess she's earned it though, as the history books will now show that Knipperen was the first infiltrator to ever strip and impersonate a Phantom......Although, I somehow doubt Callie will be pleased about it. ;) :P
Also, the g-string running gag returns. I sense a great potential in him. :lol:
Poor Libido, all she wants to do is strip a woman who's wearing a G-string, but she's just never around when one is found is she. Maybe she'll get lucky one day haha. :lol: :D
These are details, but I appreciate how you take into account BB's stature or Angel's blue hair when the situation needs it. Just as I appreciate the details of showing Angel's care towards the women she mugs. Though I think I already praised a lot of times your attention to details.
Thank you very much! I do like to point out and remind the readers that the sisters are not just cut and copy versions of one another. They all have their own identities, their own individualities, their own advantages and disadvantages (pending on the situation). So I do like to highlight these whenever I can. :D
And that scene with Lexi... It needs an 'Always be aware of your surroundings' PSA. 'Cause in a way she's lucky that she was discovered by an infiltrator, and NOT her boss. When being mugged for disguise is the better course of action because the other is being fired... :lol:
Indeed, something tells me that Lexi is going to be one of those rare guards who is actually thankful she was mugged by an infiltrator when she wakes up. I can already see her smiling under her gag and sighing in absolute relief over the fact that she wasn't caught watching one of her....personal.....Videos during her work shift. :lol: ;)
I'm wondering if the names are a coincidence or a reference...
I assure you, it is genuinely just a coincidence. They were just names I plucked from a list of 1,000 Female first names I had open at the time. :lol:
I'm sensing a 'Tirepanted' inspiration, with the various storylines that are now meeting each other.
It is something that I'm trying to do here and that's, create some story lines before having everyone come together towards the end. Although I do believe that Tirepanted is a lot better at doing this sort of thing that what I am. :D
(For instance, Ulla's actions that are actually making things more complicated for Elisha and Kheshig.) Plus, even though they have common goals, the story reminds us that there are a lot of tensions between all these groups. A good way to keep the suspense. Yet, the interactions feel natural. They flow naturally, with enough conflict to be believable, but no forced conflict.
Indeed, Ulla doesn't know it yet, but she accidentally forced Kheshig and Elisha to move up their plans and begin their coupe sooner rather than later. But at the same time, Knipperen has accidentally done this herself when she radioed the sisters to let them know about Blink's situation. But situations are bound to change and our characters must adapt as they unfold. ;)

I'd say going into this final part, that everyone isn't going to be all friendly and chummy towards each other. Their will naturally be some tension between our factions, because this is natural, given what everyone's been through. But I find it funny that it doesn't matter which way you look at it. All of our factions and characters were united thanks to Shannon. ;) ...........The nine sisters, The Phantom deserters, The white masks and Ulla's squad......All coming together to help reunite Blink with her abducted daughter.......Despite all of their hatred towards one another, all of their different views and ways. They all know that their are lines in this world you just do not cross. 8-)

I'm also wondering if I should make a scene of Blink actually confronting Falcon, because as we all know. You NEVER touch or even go near Blink's daughter, because she will make you pay, dearly! 8-)
That burn... I appreciate it even more on a second reading... Somedy has to call the firemen! :lol:
Third degree burns......First degree fun! :D 8-)
he various conversations between Ulla, Blink, and the White Masks were interesting, and I especially appreciate the fact that you're making the effort to give both sides valid arguments. Even Ellie. Though by now I think I made it clear that this sort of moral dilemnas and these thematics are a personal favourite of mine, so as far as I'm concerned you're 'preaching to the choir'. ;) I know it means that the plot spends a lot of time dwelling on non-USB scenes, but you'll always have my support when you develop your plot. (Also, I'm glad to have been able to help.)
Well I really do enjoy writing these sort of scenes as well. So it pleases me to know that I'm not the only one who enjoys them, plus I quite like story heavy scenes as well as it hopefully allows people to connect with them more and decide for themselves....Is this a character they want to route for, or is this a character they can't wait to see defeated. ;) Plus, giving you all what you want is something I also enjoy doing too. 8-)

With the next chapter being the infiltration itself, expect a lot of USB scenes to appear. I mean after all, there are a lot of characters now who will require disguises won't they. So let the USB fun COMMENCE! :D 8-)

Of course. I always say that if your going to do a character that's already been established, then you do them properly or you might as well not even bother. Now I know that the white masks are part of Tina's world (The Clone Saga) already, but naturally they were created by your good self, so obviously no one would know the white masks better than you, so it made sense to confer with you and make sure I get them all correct. Continuity is key, so I thank you again. :D
That's it for now. I'm itching to see how this arc is resolved. Do you have perchance an idea of how many chapters are left?
Honestly......ONE........I kind of want the next chapter to be the last one, but I'm doubting myself a little bit, because the next chapter will be the infiltration of the main Phantom HQ and the confrontation of the Prophet (and yes I will reveal WHO she actually is under that mask and I already know that no one will be able to guess who it is. ;) ). But at the same time, I want to include a second infiltration featuring a few characters afterwards. So I'm not sure if I should separate the two infiltrations or just have it as one long chapter.....Hhhhmmm, choices. :?: :)

Thank you very much again! :D :D

Meditions142 - Thank you very much! :D
Trackman, I don't know how you are able to just keep putting out fantastic stories. It is unbelievable how you keep creating story after story and somehow make each one unique and entertaining.
Honestly, thank you very much! Trying to give you all something unique and different each and every single time, can sometimes prove to be quite challenging. But I am very pleased to hear that so far I am succeeding. So I thank you again! :D
I love the scene with River and Sloane. First of all, the turning 30 discussion is fantastic. I also like that they use a dart on River but use neck chop on Sloane. Interesting touch.
I thought I'd mix it up with this scene, I didn't want Angel to use her darts on both women, I also wanted Tina to get in on the action. Plus as we know, Tina specialises in hand takedowns such as. Neck chops, sleeper holds and nerve pinches, so as I said, it was nice to mix it up a little bit. :D
What a great description. There really is something great about the image of a knocked out female guard failing back into the waiting arms of her attacker.
Thank you very much. I like to describe most of the takedown effect rather than just simply write things things like. "She was knocked out, then hit the floor." I like to give you all as much detail as I can, so the scene itself feels more alive and more enjoyable for you. So I am pleased that you like this. :D
The Lexi scene is great. A sentry not keeping her mind on her job and watching porn instead. Love it.
Indeed, that might teach her that there is a time and a place to watch a porno....But not on your work shift haha! :lol: 8-)
And of course great to see the idea we discussed being used when Vivia and Freya get darted!
Of course. When I find out what type of scenes people enjoy seeing, I try my best to include them whenever I can. Because I do want people to naturally have a good experience when reading any of my chapters. :D

Thank you very much again! :D

So the climax is at our doors... The torture of not knowing how this arc concludes will end... :lol: I'm very worried for some of the characters. It would be too soon for the Prophet to be defeated, so I fear that Elisha and Kheshig may run into trouble...

Honestly, I think you're the best judge to decide what you want to do, but by the look of it, it seems that the infiltration of the Phantom HQ will be a big installment - what with the high number of characters, the conflicting interactions, and the big reveal of the Prophet's identity. (SHE WILL BE ASHLEY FROM TIREPANTED'S SERIES, I'M CALLING IT! :lol: :lol: :lol: ) So if the "second infiltration featuring a few characters" is disjointed from the infiltration of the Phantoms' HQ, maybe it'd be best to include it in an epilogue afterwards. :?:

So the climax is at our doors... The torture of not knowing how this arc concludes will end... :lol: I'm very worried for some of the characters. It would be too soon for the Prophet to be defeated, so I fear that Elisha and Kheshig may run into trouble...
Indeed, I mean after all. Prophet, Jetset and Falcon have been fairly quiet lately haven't they. ;)

Damn it! Would you stop hacking into my PC and spoiling it for everyone! :lol: :P :lol:

Haha, but seriously.....Can you imagine though, if a scene actually happened of where Prophet just whips off her helmet and goes "Ta-da!" and it's revealed to be Ashley :lol:

I genuinely believe Tirepanted would send a load of bounty hunters after me if I did. :lol:

But as I was saying. Who the person is under the helmet might surprise people, as they are not a new character. I've actually already established this individuals identity in the past, but I know for a fact that nobody will remember them, as they were quickly overshadowed during their appearance. ;)

In all fairness, that's probably the safest route to go so things don't feel out of place. So yeah, I'll probably end up doing that. :D
