"Shit, Michelle, get out of there, right now!" Paige yelled in her ear. Michelle ignored her, still glaring at Trish.
"And if I don't?" She asked Trish.
"I pound you until you reach a point where you need a tube to breathe," Trish said menacingly. Michelle swallowed imperceptibly.
"And if I do it, what does that prove?"
"You said you're with the Night Blazers. Only those guys are crazy enough to take up the felony dare." Trish said. "Brook trashed a cop car for his challenge..." Michelle's mouth fell open at that, but she said nothing, making a mental note to ask Brook about it.
"Fine, I'll do it," Michelle said determinedly. Jada looked surprised but said nothing.
"MICHELLE!" Paige yelled. Michelle was really itching to tell her to be quiet and let her handle this.
"Really? My my, you've got guts, girly." Trish sneered.
"But I have a condition," Michelle said through gritted teeth.
"Oh ho, a smart one she is!" Trish slapped her knee as she cackled. "Gonna try negotiation, huh, cherub? Alright, name your price. This oughta be good."
"You become the Night Blazers' allies and help them with whatever they need," Michelle said. Jada frowned.
"I didn't know the Night Blazers needed help. I thought they went off the radar after Kromer was put away." She said.
"Well, they do. So do we have a deal?" Michelle asked. Trish looked thoughtful.
"I might be open to joining forces with the Night Blazers. If -"
"What?" Michelle asked with narrow eyes.
"You get Brook Havens to come down to meet me. I have a proposal for him." Trish said. Michelle felt like choking in anger at that but she closed her eyes and swallowed her irritation, trying to override her emotions with rational judgment. She had to do this, the crew needed help and this was for Brook. She reminded herself of that.
"Fine." She ground out. Trish looked surprised as if she didn't expect Michelle to say yes.
"Okay then. You steal a cop's car, get Brook to come to me and we have ourselves a deal." She said.
"Now wait a minute let's think this through -" Jada protested. Trish held her hand up.
"I don't need to think this through, I've made up my mind. So, cherub, you got a name?"
"Michelle."
"I gather you already know me otherwise you wouldn't have come here to catch my attention. So let's not waste any more time on chit-chat." She walked to the exit and Jada pushed Michelle forward.
