Taken

Pinpoint

Tim laid on his stomach as he looked at the building across from them, he had to work on his binoculars to tweak it to see thermal through the tinted glass. "See anything?" Ali and Dick were pacing back and forth behind him. "Lots of body heat, nothing that looks like hers.." Tim pulled back to rub his eyes. "Let's move on to the Siones building" "I hope this isn't a waste of time" Dick pulled out his grappling hook. "We're close, I feel it" Ali followed behind her husband and brother in law to the building across from the Siones building.

Ali took in her surroundings, the main Wayne  enterprise building was about two or three clicks away from their position. The three of them positioned themself just near the shade while Tim laid back on the ground. Ali took noticed to the gated part of the roof, her eyes squinting to notice a small hole between the gated holes. "What you seeing R?" Dick squats down next to his brother. "A lot less body heat and people..." Tim scanned the energy, he saw two people talking on the stairway, one more aggressive then the other. He looked in another room, two girls in what appeared to be in a shower. "Wow that's gay"

"R, focus"

"Sorry there's two girls showering with each other" Dick peaked up. "Really?" Ali smacked the back of his head. "Keep it in your pants!" Tim laughed quietly as he went to a different room, his eyes becoming wide. "I think it's her, I'm comparing body heat..." A quiet beep was heard as he handed off the binoculars to Ali. "It's her, has to be. It matches with the records" Ali took a peak through the binoculars, her mouth slightly dropping seeing her girl talk to someone else. "Can we get something to listen in to confirm?"

Dick pulled out a blue small bug and a controller. "Let me just toss this up and let it find a vent" They all crowded the small screen on the ground as Dick controlled the bug. It crawled against the window and found itself a vent on the outside. He guides the bug within the vents, tuning into any of the conversations.

"You're seriously sitting here actually planning her a birthday party Roman??"

The camera pans to the two men conversing on the steps. Ali took a look, her eyes widening. She grabbed her husband's arm, shaking him. "It's the guy!! That's fucking Jake Ballard!!" She recognize his posture, his look, she stared at his photos way too much from the night of the showcase. "And his name is Roman, Robin, write that down" "Way ahead of you sis, messaging blessing as we speak" Tim typed on his device to his boyfriend.

"Let's find the kitchen" Dick directed the bug down the vent, watching the corners carefully to not make any noise.

"Is it true that you dated Victor Luther?"

"...No comment"

Everyone perked up hearing her voice, it nearly brought tears to their eyes seeing her again. She looked relatively taken care of, no bruises or anything they could see from the camera. Her hair was taken care of as well. "They didn't break her spirit at least" Ali tuned her husband out as she looked at a new person entering the frame. "Is that..." He turns in Jade's direction, anger written on his face. "That's the guy who's always in my section at the diner, Richie" Dick arched his eyebrow as they listened in.

"Afraid to look me in my face? I mean, I see you in Alison's booth all the time"

"And there's her snarky mouth. It's good to see that hasn't changed" Ali stared at the screen, specifically at the confrontation between the two of them. Richie was in Jade's face, her fist balled up. It made her want to bust in the windows and punch him, but she couldn't. They need a plan first, a plan comes before anything.

"Go ahead and go back to being a dog to your owner, I think I hear him calling you"

The three of them covered their mouths to muffle their laughter. "Okay, now what? We form a plan now right?" "She's leaving the kitchen, try and follow her to see where she goes" Ali commanded, her husband followed her word without objection. The screen followed the two girls leading up the steps before she stopped in front of a room with a grey door. Ali leaned forward to take a snapshot of the door. "Look, she's right there" Tim pointed to the window that Jade walked by. She was sitting on the bed, soaking up the sun rays beaming on her. "Capture that, bring the bug back baby"

Dick guided the bug through the vents without problem. "Ugh, is there a fucking raccoon in the vent again!" They all held their breath as dick shifted the bug to flight mode. "You're hearing things Jill, relax" The bug made it back to their hands safely. "Now?" Dick looked at Ali, she was in a deep stare at Jade. "We report back to Batman. Call everyone home, I have a concept of a plan" They all gathered their things and pulled out their grappling hooks.

"Dove reporting in," Ali holds her earpiece. "Everyone report to the batcave, important information"

Unknown to them, someone had just entered the alleyway across from them. Now they didn't see much or hear anything, but the image alone of three vigilantes zooming above them nearly sent them into a panic. Stu drops his vape on the ground, sucking his teeth.

"Fuck."
