Just a Game

Just a Game

A flat on the outskirts of Jump City: the Girls

Waking up to the rays of sunlight pouring through her window, she blinked. Her red tendrils of hair sprawled across her pillow. She squinted, her giant orbs of green suddenly opening and closing in an attempt to shield them from the sun. The sounds of distant traffic were muted due to her closed window.

"Get out of bed Kori, you're gonna' miss breakfast!" Rachael shrieked up the stairs.

"I'm coming already. Stop yelling!" she replied.

Lifting the duvet off of herself she gradually got out of the bed. Slumping lazily towards the door and down the stairs.

"Geez Kor, could you be any slower?"

"Shut up Rae"

"You two should stop bickering we have work to do. We'll stop off at Starbucks on the way to the museum to pick up a few drinks and then the mall for the final touches to our disguises."

"Yeh whatever Bee'' mumbled Kori.

"How drunk did you get last night Kori?"

"Extremely drunk," Rachael answered.

"That is partly you're fault as you are the people who took me to that club and therefore if I am moody this morning it's because I got to bed really late last night thanks to two extremely mischievous thieves."

"Don't blame us, blame the drink," giggled Bee.

"Can we please just go to Starbucks now," moaned Kori.

"Well we can but you still look a wreck and we don't particularly want to be seen in public with you," Rachael said smugly.

Kori's face suddenly darkened. A green blaze in her eyes. A flash of green shot across the room and hit Rachael in the stomach, sending her sprawling across the kitchen floor.

"Hey! That hurt Kori!"

Kori shot up from her kitchen stool, clutching at her stomach trying to contain the laughter. Bee had soon mimicked her actions and was rolling on the floor clutching at her stomach as well. Rachael's face grimaced as she tried to pick out a piece of broken egg shell from her violet shoulder-length hair. Her matching violet eyes turned white and a black tendril shot out of the floor heading straight for Kori.

Kori having finally collapsed on to the floor noticed the single black line coming towards her. She immediately sprung to her feet and darted out of the room giggling all of the way, the black tendril following close behind her.

"Give me ten minutes!" she called back down the stairs, a hint of laughter edged into her voice.

An Apartment deep in the heart of Jump City: the Boys

Richard awoke to the sounds of cars honking outside of his open window. He could hear Garfield still snoring away in the room next to his and the hustle of Victor downstairs, preparing everything for the day. He sat up to find his blanket in a crumpled mess on the floor beside his bed. His neat room only having a few shirts sprawled here and there. Getting up and going over to his mirror, he looked at his reflection. His dark black hair jutted out in every direction. Trying to smooth it out as much as possible he headed downstairs to Victor in only a tank top and shorts.

"Mornin' Vic"

"Yo, good sleep?"

"Yeh"

"I'm making omlets. Is Gar awake yet?"

"Na"

"GAR, GET YOU'RE BUT OUTTA BED!"

Richard chuckled to himself. They could hear a thud come from upstairs and soon after Garfield came stumbling through the kitchen door.

"Geez Vic! Do you have to be so loud?!" he screeched.

"Yes if it'll get you're bony ass outta bed."

A bark of laughter erupted from Richard at that point. Victor looked over at him and smiled to himself. Garfield glared at him and went over to victor for his omlet. At that point their phone rang. Richard went to pick it up.

"Hello?"

"Good morning, this is Commissioner Jones."

"Hello Commissioner, how may I help you?"

"Well……….I have a job for you and you're accomplices. I assume that you have read the paper recently?"

"Yes. Is this about the midnight trio?"

"Indeed it is . Myself and the Mayor were hoping that you could sort out our problem. They have already stolen from two of our top banks. We don't know where they're going to attack next. We can never get a clear image of what they look like. We think that they are three men though. We can only have the best on this case."

"We understand Sir."

"I will fax you all of the documents and locations where they have attacked. The strange thing is that they leave nothing behind. No fingerprints, weapons. Nothing."

"And you're sure that they are men?"

"Yes Mr. Grayson."

"We understand then."

"Thank you . Tell Mr. Logan and Mr. Stone thank you as well."

"No problem, goodbye Commissioner."

"Have a good day and goodbye Mr. Grayson."

Richard put down the phone and looked at the two other men standing in the room.

"Gentlemen. We have work to do."
