"We have been experiencing the first uptick in activity in over two years. No doubt, related to the recent escapes. Crime-Net indicates a major hit is going down tonight."
The Chief's debrief was coming out of the radio, making Chase speed up even more. Throughout the two years, his driving had improved. Parking the car perfectly outside of the museum, Chase is the first one out of the car.
"We are at the museum Chief."
He reports in, and just as Julia leaves the car herself, the blue sports car that had been following them parks right beside her, only to have Zack step out beside her with a grin.
"Yo."
"We got this."
Ivy tells them, hand on her hip and bearing the same grin as her brother. Julia, being the observer as always, spots what is already waiting for them.
"It seems someone else already did."
In front of the museum doors is one of the few V.I.L.E operatives that had managed to slip through their finger so many times through out the two years. Paper Star had been tied up in a red rope, left as a perfect gift for them. Smiling, Julia starts to lift her head up, eyes landing on something she had not seen in so long, and she had been wondering if she would ever see that red coat and fedora ever again. From the corner of her eyes, she could see how her team had spotted the same thing as she had, all three of them smiling.
"You do realize we're gonna have to take her down. Ugh. Kidding."
Zack's voice turned serious, only to loss it again when Ivy hit him.
"I'll take you down, Agent. I don't care if you are Chief's pet."
Ivy tells her brother, making Zack smile even more as they turn their attention towards the roof once more, just in time too see the woman in red dip her fedora before disappearing.
"You have to agree, it would have been fun."
Zack comments, turning his attention back to his sister. Rolling her eyes, Julia turns her own attention towards Chase, ignoring the twins as they start their normal round of bickering. Seeing that Chase roll his own, he steps towards Paper Star that looks up at the sound. Seeing her long-time partner pull out the pen and activating it, Julia sent Ivy a look to silence her and Zack before joining Chase.
"Yes, agent Devineaux."
Chief answered, looking at her agents. Her voice might be kept in the same tone as it's always in, the only difference is the smile that had been showing more often. With a nod of his head, the hologram Chief turns around, eyes landing on Paper Star.
"Well, that was a quick job."
"Of course, we are professionals."
Zack points out, making them all roll their eyes."We didn't work alone."
Julia voiced up; this made the Chief look at her. The older woman's eyes had grown in surprised and Julia had a feeling that the woman wasn't all to sure she had read what was hidden between the lines in her comment.
"She's back?"
The question was spoken in a low tone, but the team red agent's, a nickname they had all decided on soon after Ivy and Zack had joined, nods their head as an answer. Shaking her head, the Chief turns to look at Paper Star once more.
"The pickup team is on the way, I guess that what ever she was about to steal will show up again in no time."
The Chief tells them, before ending the call and Chase bows down to take his pen. Looking towards the roof, Julia let her mind wander of. She had not seen Carmen in these two years, she and Shadowsan had completely gone of the grid. Julia had a feeling that Carmen would go and seek her mother out, so she had made sure neither of the others had a way to find the place. After what she had learned in the files and what she had to find for her research all those years ago, Julia had come to terms that Carmen needed this time.
