How a Villainess fell in love

Chapter 41: Futile attempts at success

I just realized that if anyone asked me what I've just written I genuinely wouldn't be able to tell them. I'm legit so tired I'm working on muscle memory. For this reason I am sorry if the quality goes down but I am trying my best. Anyways, I need sleep.

------------Wally's POV:----------

Was I angry? Oh yeah, furious. How Bruce could so easily use someone then turn around and sell them out was a wonder to me. I mean I knew he was cold hearted but jeez, even Captain cold wasn't that heartless.

Once this was all over I was gonna get Percy to back down, even if only for a little. Maybe she could change her appearance and start anew. All I knew was that I wouldn't let her get taken. Bruce had no right.

I couldn't focus on that now, because in order to help Percy I'd have to make it out of here alive. I zoned back into the situation, the others sneaking in front of me as we crouched close to the ground. Our black suits melding in with the wall.

I could hear the villains near us, their laughter didn't make it difficult to track them.

"HA! In and out eh? These heroes won't know what hit 'em" Bane said, his boisterous voice easily recognizable.

"Quiet you big oaf. No need to ring the alarms if you're already screaming" Another darker voice spoke. This one came from Captain cold. Lenard Snart. I internally cringed at even the thought of the slimy man.

A manic laugh broke through both voices, the craze almost bouncing off the walls as we hid behind massive crates and behind certain displays.

"Quiet!" The silence was nearly deafening as everyone froze. There was a long pause before the voice continued. "We need this artifact so that we can invite beings into this world. If you two continue your bickering I might just sacrifice you instead of those heroes." Joker's voice seemed to seethe out, playing the most horrific melody you'd ever hear.

We continued slowly, following the echoes of their footsteps down the hall. I mean it really wasn't that difficult to follow the earthquakes that were Banes footsteps.

"Alright, everyone be ready, we're soon to stop and we'll need to act quickly." Dick's voice spoke up, his movements swift as he disappeared into the shadows momentarily.

I took a deep breath before following after, the others splitting off in the other direction. Soon they would break apart as well. All I had to worry about was keeping up with Dick, this was a common goal I shared with Frank, his little paws clung tightly to my shoulder. Sure, watching a big burly man turn into a small hamster was absolutely terrifying, but I admit, it must be a useful tool.

"Dude, I never thought I'd say this, but hurry up" Dick's voice once again spoke up. I let out a small sigh before hurrying over, now right behind Dick as we maneuvered our way through the now quiet museum.

We soon found ourselves on the second floor, overlooking the glass case below. The three villains stood there, staring at the glass case in anticipation, tools getting handed around like hot potatoes. We had to hurry.

I looked over to Dick to see this feeling was mutual and I'm sure if I could read the expressions of hamsters then Frank would also be looking the same, though I guess his claws digging into my suit was good enough.

Suddenly two confirmations rang out in my head. Everyone was in position. I looked up to see a dark shadow lingering near the edge of the massive glass roof.

"Okay, we need to pounce now alright, Kaldur, Annabeth, Connor, and Artemis, you guys go for Bane, try your best to hit the gas tanks off his back, Leo, Hazel, Me'gan, Piper, and Jason you guys go for Captain cold. Bats, Kid flash, Frank, and I will all go for Joker. On the count of three start long distance attacks then make your way in. I don't think I need to say this but be careful of your surroundings." Dick instructed, pulling out a batarang and aiming it for Joker.
