"Carmen! Emergency! Big Emergency!" The Chief said appearing on the wall behind the infamous thief who was planning her next heist with some henchmen, most notorious of whom was Al Loy and Sara Bellum.

"I'm busy Chief." Carmen said without looking up as she examined the map in front of her.

"Ivy's been kidnapped!" The Chief said panicked and instantly Carmen whirled around alarmed.
"If this is your idea of a joke..." Carmen growled while Sara Bellum looked alarmed as well at the news.

"No joke! Some guys tried grabbing her and Zack both but she fought back hard enough to make them let go of Zack. She was knocked out before she could get away though and we haven't been able to get in contact with her since." The Chief hurried to explain while Carmen clenched her fists and her scowl darkened.

"Sara! Get the others and get ready to go! We're going to ACME now." Carmen ordered the inventor who nodded and ran off immediately.

"Boss what about the plan?" One goon asked looking at his boss who scowled and turned around, sweeping the map off of the table and onto the ground looking furious.

"Forget the plan! All heists are on hold! No one is doing anything until we find Ivy and get her back! I want every square centimeter of the criminal underworld checked four times over! I want her found and I want her found yesterday!" Carmen snarled at them, her eyes rather feral as she glared at the goons.

"Yes ma'am!" The goons said gulping and doing as ordered as they dispersed to get the word spread and job done. They had never seen their boss like this before.

"Where's Zachary now?" Carmen demanded glaring at Chief who blinked a bit at how she was acting and then shrugged it off. It was well known by certain people that Zack and Ivy were Carmen's detectives, and she was very possessive of what was hers. Not many knew the real reason why Carmen was so protective and possessive of the two.

"He's here at ACME. We're calling in all the agents to help find Ivy and he's pacing like a caged tiger and blaming himself and we need your help to find her!" Chief said making Carmen nod her head.

"You have it. We'll be there in twenty minutes. I'm bringing Sara, Hack and Al inside with me, the rest are setting up at a nearby base and searching the underworld but will come if I call." Carmen said making Chief nod.

"None of the agents will try to arrest you or your crew. We're all too worried about Ivy. We don't know who took her or why but Zack says he has a bad feeling that he knows who and why and he's not explaining! He says he doesn't want to think about it just in case it's not true." Chief said making Carmen frown but nod. Fearing the worst but not wanting to believe it's possible.

"We're on our way." Carmen promised before turning and looking at the grim and determined V.I.L.E. Agents standing behind her. The signature members knew that the two detectives were important and precious to their boss for some reason. For someone to kidnap one of hers...they were declaring war on Carmen...and Carmen didn't know the meaning of the word 'mercy' when it came to her precious people. They knew that if any harm befell Ivy, Sara would be getting those human guinea pigs she had been asking for. That was for the lucky ones.

"Well? You heard it. Move people!" Carmen barked as she rushed past them and to the jet, Al, Hack, and Sara riding with her while the others got in various cars and other available means of transport.

Within ten minutes Carmen was striding into the ACME building with long hurried strides, Sara, Hack, and Al half a step behind her. The first thing they saw was a room full of teenage detectives working frantically to track their fellow detective, the adults helping where they can but most being moved out of the way by the fast moving teens.
