"You are all becoming cowards! We've been hiding in this warehouse doing nothing for two months! We need to strike again, and strike now!" She hissed, her wings buzzing, and her voice raspy and high.

"No, it's too risky. We're already under suspicion by the police, and once they find out we're the ones that started the fires, we'll be dead meat." he shook his head, his wings involuntarily shaking behind him as he spoke to her.

"He's right, ma'am. We just need to keep doing what we're doing, and we'll be out of the sight of potential investigation." He added, trying not to show his fear as he cowered under her large form.

"Yeah, we could even try and enlist help from Shiko! He's becoming a popular figure, we could have him take suspicion away from us!" He spoke again, turning and stretching his fuzzy, insect arms.

"But we already have members who have complete trust and don't know about our actions! They could be listening to us now, and we'll be gone for good anyways!" She shouted stalking closer towards the two with her large claws. "I don't need either of you two! I can get shit done without your help!"

"Fine, do it yourself if you're so high and mighty! But just so you know, if the police or any journalists ever comes to us asking about the crimes, we will all admit and won't hesitate to blame and point you out for leading us! Humbug will be released because of what you're going to do."

"Then I'll do it! To get retribution I'll take that risk. Everyone else was wrong, and they deserve what's coming to them!"
Her wings sputtered up, lifting her large body to the very top balcony, where she rushed into the roof exit, off to her next plan of attack. It wouldn't take very long. They knew that.
