It was after dark.
A dark van was driving down the road.
John was driving.
Felicity Oliver, Jill, Sara and Amy were in the back, all wearing black with ski masks.
Felicity was fixing her mask. "I don't think my eye holes line up properly." She took off her mask. "Is anyone else having this problem?"
"Don't be nervous," Sara told her.
"I'm a lot nervous," Felicity told them. "This is a big move, even for us. And we've cornered the market on ig moves."
"Slade didn't give us any choice," Oliver told them.
"Yeah, but as far as plans go, this is not a good one," Amy told them.
"Amy, this was your plan," Jill told her.
"I didn't think you'd actually say yes," Amy told them.
Jill gave her an exasperated look.
Oliver looked down, hiding a smirk.
John pulled over. "We're here."
Everyone pulled on their masks, getting out of the car, running up to the applied sciences division of Queen Consolidated.
John cut through the chain link fence.
Guard was standing by outside.
John walked up behind him, holding him in a chokehold until he passed out.
Guard 2 was standing nearby on the stairs, drawing his gun. Sara jumped up onto the stairs behind him, kicking him in the head, making him fall unconscious.
"Hey," Oliver told her. "That man used to work for me."
"And now he works for our enemy," Sara told them.
Felicity pulled off her mask. "Security cameras are down." They all pulled off their masks. Felicity walked upstairs. "You all remember the skeleton key? Courtesy of William Tockman, AKA, the Clock King, it can open any lock." She put the skeleton key to the door. "Including this one."
The key unlocked the door.
They walked inside.
John put his bag on the ground, pulling out explosives. "These are plug n' play. Fasten them to what we talked about. Let the C4 do the rest."
"Been a while since I've blown anything up," Amy told them.
Jill nodded. "Quick and clean."
They all walked away to fasten the explosives to walls and structures.
"I'm a bomber," Felicity told them. "I can't believe I'm a bomber. I wonder if I can list that on my resume under special skills."
A man walked toward Felicity from behind, aiming his gun at her. "Freeze!"
Jill popped up next to the man, punching him in the face, kicking him in the head, making him fall unconscious.
Oliver caught the man from falling to the floor, hoisting him over his shoulders to carry him out. "We have to go."
⚔
The three unconscious guards were outside on the ground, far away from the building.
The van drove away.
John was driving.
The others were in the back.
Felicity was looking at the thermal readings in the building from her tablet. "Thermal shows everybody's out."
