I've got rings on my fingers and glitter in my hair.
I bought a one way ticket, and I just got here. I'm gonna run this town.
I've got high heel stilettos n I'm kicking indoors
And kissing your ass ain't what my lipstick's for.

I'm gonna run this town tonight.

"NO!!!" I heard all of them shout. While I just gave a small smile. "What- why are you smiling?" Black Fox Junior asked me. "Did you think it would be so easy when you've just given me time to concentrate all my energy into a mass?" I asked, and let the anger flare out, covering him in flames. "YOU-!" he shouted, dancing in the middle of the room, trying to get rid of the fire. He fell back on the floor and after 5 seconds of struggling, he got back up, sending a blow at me, but now knowing how to block it, I directed it towards the glass capsules. They ended up being blast open for they were weakened than before. 

The three of them sped to stand by me. "You guys okay?" I asked, concerned. "Never been better." muttered Nate, cracking his knuckles. "I am SO not gonna go easy on him for what he did to my brother!" and that's when I noticed that Greg had the entire right side of his face was cut open, his own blood splattered across his neck and jacket. 

"I'm fine for now. My spirit h-helped a bit." he said, wincing as he spoke. I turned my eyes to where Junior was, but he was now nowhere to be seen. "Where'd he go?" I asked, and looked around the room. "Wait where's Leo?" asked Nate. Split second later, the three of us looked at each other. "Oh no." I said.

Nate and I ran out, leaving Greg to wait in the room due to his injury. We could hear shouts coming from the other side of the building. "How come this floor is so deserted?" Nate asked as we both ran, following the sound. As if jinxing the moment, we were surrounded by, looking at the scene in front of us, every guard in the building. "Shit." Nate muttered. "Now what?" I whispered, as we stood in the middle, back to back. "I'll take care of these guys. You find Leo and that bit-" he began, but stopped as he punched a guy who had come close, knocking the guards in a line as he flew backward. "GO!" he shouted, causing me to take my phoenix form and get into the air. Flying above the heads that were blocking the door, as the free ground came back into view, I let it go, landing back smoothly on the ground, and ran faster.

Finally, the shouts became louder and louder, once to the point where my senses weren't able to bear the amplitude. Sprinting out of the back door, I saw them in a heated hand to hand battle with each other, like two kids fighting over a bar of candy. Feeling the urge that it would be better to separate them, putting my hand in front of me, I sent out a fireball, hitting them both right where they were fighting. Noticing me, Leo ran and stood behind me. "We need to get out of here. Black Fox isn't here. Only his stupid son to make trouble for us." he said, pulling on my elbow. "No." I said, and stood firm in my place. 

"No? Why not!" he asked. "Because there's something I need to know first." I said, and walked ahead, despite of Leo pulling me back. Grabbing the half conscious Black Fox Junior from the floor by his collar, I asked fiercely, "What do you know about my parents dying?" 

The signature grin was plastered on his face this time. "Oh baby, you only know that they died in a fire don't you? But not how the fire started do you?" he asked, smugly. What he said next caused me to drop him. 

"What?" I said, my heart breaking to pieces.....
