You're on Team Red and about to engage on a mission to stop Vile. Will Carmen find out your true colours or will you remain behind the mask?

A/N - I will do requests as and when I can but I won't be doing them in any particular order so please don't demand if I did someone else's requests after yours. I've had this issue recently and it was partly why I went on hiatus especially for my marvel stuff. This one is basically a few episodes mashed together.

Me and the rest of the gang currently sit around the sofa getting intel off Player for our next mission. Something about a masquerade ball in Venice, Italy. That's cool because I've always wanted to go to Italy! Anyway, Player told us that Vile are planning something well... vile. They have stolen masks from the famous mask maker, Carlo Marega. It seems Dr Bellum has infused some sort of mind control technology on the inside of them. 

"If that's true then why would she want to mind control all of Venice?" Ivy asks. "Player?" Carmen questions the young genius. "Turns out the biggest fashion show is on in Venice instead of Milan but with a twist. The models are all wearing masks this year. If I had to take a guess, Vile want to mind control the models into stealing some pretty expensive outfits. You can't even call it window shopping if it's stealing." Player says the last part shrugging his shoulders. Carmen laughs a little at his joke. "Alright then, we're off to Italy. Everyone get ready."

Ugh, talk about back ache which is what I have after such a long flight. I'm just glad to finally get on with the mission. "What's the plan then?" I ask Carmen. "We all have our own masks so we don't get mind controlled by Dr Bellum and we sneak in and pretend to be one of the models and get to the dresses first. Zack and Ivy will distract the models, I'll keep an eye out for any Vile operatives and y/n, you get the dresses to safety." "Understood." I told her and we all went off to complete our mission. Little did they know, I had a slight alteration to the mission. One that will hopefully remain hidden to them. 

As soon as Zack and Ivy got the models out of the dressing room, I entered and grabbed all four dresses and walked out casually in case I ran into anyone. That moment was short lived when I heard a voice. "Is a bird the only thing to fly?" Dash Haber. I sighed and gave him the correct response. "Time flies faster than any bird." "Correct response. Now hand over the goods." "Fine. But as you may know, I'm kinda 'on Carmen's side' so I need to make it look like I am for real. I need to make it look like I'm trying to catch you after you attacked me and stole the dresses." "Alright." Then he punched me in the face and took the dresses and ran. I didn't actually mean to attack me. I can only assume it's to avoid suspicion away from Carmen when she checks for any wounds and she probably will later. 

Just like I planned, I chased after Dash Haber and pretended to catch up to him only to fake tripping up and falling over when Carmen came into view. "I got it." Carmen said through the earbuds. She kicked away one of the models attacking her no doubt through the mind control of the one and only Dr Bellum. But Carmen managed to pin down Dash Haber meaning there was nothing else I could do except stand there and let her defeat him and complete her mission successfully. I glared at him knowing she and other faculty members wouldn't be too pleased about his failure to complete his mission. For now, my mask will remain up and Carmen does not know my true colours. Not yet anyway. 

Ending this one here. I wasn't sure how to end this. What did you all think since this is my first piece for Carmen in a looong time? Also, the person who's name is mentioned for making masks is a real person, I decided to use some fact like in the show. Or attempted too anyway. Requests are STILL OPEN! I'll get through them like I said. Don't forget to VOTE! :)
