Pep Talk
I walked with Griggs to the place where a few military people were. Military doctors, to be precise. I frowned and walked further to them after Griggs told me to go to them. I saw these things that they use for injections, which I guess, was for us. By 'us' I mean me, Harley, Floyd and whoever more were coming here. I walked up to the woman and she injected me with something in my neck. I winced slightly and she checked if it was okay. "Location verified. Next!" I continued to walk and the guards told me to wait here at the exit to the helipads. Griggs came up to me and stood in front of me. "Listen here, Lydia. Your brother Klaus gave me this last night and he wanted you to have it." He handed me a phone and I quickly hid it with a blank expression. "He's working with Joker to get you and Harley out." I nodded and smirked. "When I get out, you're dead." They opened the doors and I walked out.
I was first in the line and the others that was going were behind me. I heard Griggs talking to Harley but I didn't focus on it. "You're so screwed." I heard Harley say and then she laughed, making me smirk. We got onto a plane and the ride was calm and quiet. I just sat there in the plane with my eyes closed, thinking of a plan to get out of their 'puppet hold' of me. They really don't have one, but I'll let them think they do, for a while. I also need to get the nanite explosive out from my neck. But that will be easy. Just use some magic and done. But not now. I was instructed to stand next to Harley who was next to Floyd who was next to Diablo after we got out of the helicopter. Killer Croc was wheeled next to me. I knew who everyone was because of the guards at Belle Reve. "Alpha, Bravo team, on me!" I heard a man yell out. "What the hell, Flag?" A group of people walked in front of us and the one in an army baseball cap was hot, to be honest. "Unlock 'em." Someone was about to take off my cuffs when I pulled my arms apart and the cuffs fell to the ground.
I looked around to see everyone shocked over my strength, causing me to smirk at them. I heard a chopper land in the background, behind us. Harley, Floyd and Diablo stretched as soon as they had been unlocked. "Mmm. Hi, boys! Harley Quinn. How do you do?" Silence from all the soldiers. They looked at her like she was mad. Which she is, but not as mad as I am. Floyd and Flag was staring straight into each others eyes. After a minute of silence Harley spoke up. "Huh? What was that? I should kill everyone and escape?" I raised an eye brow while looking at her. She broke into a smile and looked at the soldiers. "Sorry. The voices. I'm kidding! Jeez! That's not what they really said." I chuckled and then Flag started to move to some guards coming our way with a 10-pound sack that was moving. "What do we got here? Twelve pounds of shit in a 10-pound sack." I smirked to myself and we all turned, waiting to see who was in the sack.
Flag cut it open and backed up. "Welcome to the party, Captain Boomerang." Immediately when he left the sack he punched one of the many guards that was around us. Two of them tried to take Boomerang but knocked them down. He was about to go after Flag which made something in me snap. I sped over and pushed him into a forklift and I held my arm against his throat, growling slightly. "Hey, what's going on, man?" Flag came over and I was still growling at Boomerang. "Calm down." "Hey, one minute I'm playing Mahjong with me nana, then this red streak hits me outta nowhere." I pushed him harder against the forklift and Flag spoke up. "Shut up! You were caught robbing a diamond exchange." "I was not!" I scoffed and pushed him before me before retuning to my spot next to Harley. Then a black SUV pulled up and a woman climbed out. She went back and opened the door for someone. "Here comes Slipknot, the man who can climb anything. Wonderful." Flag said with sarcasm lacing his voice.
'I swear, Flag's voice alone makes my stomach turn.' The woman waited until Slipknot was out of the car and then she spoke up. "Have a good time, scumbag." Slipknot punched the woman in the face making her fall to the ground. "Ooh." I heard Floyd say as the woman fell to the ground. The guards held him and told him to stand up straight. "She had a mouth." Both me and Harley laughed, making me look back at her. I saw that she was sitting back down in her chair. We were cut short by Flag starting to talk. "Listen up! In your necks, the injection you got, it's a nanite explosive. It's the size of a rice grain, but it's powerful as a hand grenade." I rolled my eyes and he continued. "You disobey me, you die. You try to escape, you die. You otherwise irritate or vex me, and guess what? You die."
Rick Flag's POV
I heard someone scoff and then a beautiful British accent spoke up. "Was that supposed to be a threat? 'Cause it was not a very good one and I certainly was not frightened by that." I walked in front of the source of the voice and when I looked up and locked eyes with a woman's eyes, I was met with the most beautiful green eyes. I looked the person up and down and saw a breath taking woman in front of me. Her hair was a red-orange colour and she had a perfect hourglass body. She was perfect. And the way she spoke with her accent made me feel some type of way. I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at her in her beautiful green eyes. "Yeah, that was a threat. You got a problem with that?" God, I hated being so mean to her. She put her hands up in surrender and smirked. "No, not at all." I then went back to explaining why they are here.
Lydia's POV
"No, not at all." I said to Flag and he went back to explaining why we're here. 'He's even hotter up-close!' "This is the deal. You're going somewhere very bad, to do something that'll get you killed. But until that happens, you're my problem." Flag put his arms out as he finished with a little smirk. Floyd looked down and scratched his head before he looked back up at Flag. "So was that like a, uh, pep talk?" "Yeah. That was a pep talk." Flag nodded and pointed to a bunch of boxes that was further away from us. "There's your shit. Grab what you need for a fight. We're wheels up in 10."
