Hitting the walls of buildings, lampposts, and the street, Porter led the Lionhearted around the city. Buildings glitched and glowed, sometimes even changing shape from blasts and bombs. The city was looking the way they wanted it to be, and they began to ride.

Their bikes went through puddles of rain as they left the city they had just vandalized. Porter led the group, eyes on the next city to be changed, the next city to be revealed. He knew many would disagree with his actions, but that was because he knew truth, and they didn't. He chose his most loyal to rebel; Essy, Zoe, Feral, Jennifer, and Elleanor. He knew he could trust these girls with this risky task.

"We're almost there." Porter said to the group, looking over his shoulder, "Be ready."

He could have sworn he saw Essy giving him a dirty look. Did he do something wrong? It didn't matter. He had to focus. Perhaps later he could have a chat with her.

Reaching the edge of the city, they dropped their bikes, and began the process all over again. The girls pounded, shot, and bombed the city with more glitches and glows. He smiled as he reached the top of a skyscraper, admiring their work.

A building glitched near his, and he saw the glitches stop forming. What were they doing? He urgently grabbed his radio, "Is something wrong? Did somebody catch you?"

No response.

He put the radio in his pocket, scanning the city for any signs of destruction, or something, anything. He needed to know. Were his people okay?

"Porter."

He turned around, to see the girls standing around him.

"What's this about? I thought you were all in trouble!"

"You're the one who's in trouble, Porter." Zoe said, "Your leadership is no longer needed."

"What are you talking about? I'm the creator of the Lionhearted!" His brows knit in confusion, "Who wants to rid me?"

"I do." Essy said pointing her glitch-gun at him, "I'm leader now."

"Essy, you are my most loyal soldier! Why?!" He frowned.

Essy said nothing, but pulled the trigger.
