Partners In Crime

Tabithas POV:
"Hey, Theo?" I asked walking into his office.

"Yes, Tabby?" He replied.

"So about this plan."

"What about it?" He snapped.

"Whoa, relax. So when you're done with them and you get what you want, you plan on killing them, correct?"

"Correct."

"I want the girls left out of it."

"And by 'girls' you mean?"

"Barbara, Lily, and Leila. I see something in them. They all have a darkness, but it's not just that. They're smart, they can definitely go places in the future and help us out, but they can't do that if they're dead."

"You do make a good point. But I need the younger girls to participate in the activities that I have planned. I have other plans for Barbara. I need to be trusted by the people of this town and act as a hero, in order to do that I need to kill at least one of the group members, the leader of the group I should say."

"I'm in this just as much as you, which means I get to help decide what goes on. I don't care who you kill, just leave the girls out of it, I have plans for them."

"Very well. However they will still go on and be apart of the missions with the team."

"That's perfectly fine, all I ask of you is that you don't kill them."

"You have my word, Tabby. But if I may ask, what caused you all of a sudden to care about other people's lives, especially Arkham lunatics?"

"Like I said before, I see something in them. It can be used to my, to our advantage."

"Interesting."

"Uh-huh. I'm gonna go take the girls out for a shopping trip. Don't worry, they won't be noticed, I'm taking them to one of my friends shops downtown." Before Theo could appose, I left his office heading up to go get Lily and Leila. I'll help Barbara later, right now I wanna get to know the girls a little better, they intrigue me.

I walked through the multiple halls of the penthouse to get to the girls rooms. When I got up there I heard laughter coming from Lilys room. I peaked inside through the crack. Leila, Lily, Luis, and Jerome were all having a pillow fight. I could tell the girls were scheming something. All of a sudden they surrendered.

"Yo, you guys win! We surrender!" Lily told the guys.

"Haha! I knew we could beat you!" Jerome stayed cockily, while the girls rolled their eyes.

"I wouldn't get too cocky if I were you." Leila told them.

"And why exactly is that?" Luis asked.

"No reason. Let's go get ice cream now!"

"Good idea, Lily." Jerome responded liking her idea. The guys turned around walking towards the door. The girls looked at each other and nodded before running full speed and jumping on their backs tackling the guys to the ground.

"Haha! Yes! Victory is ours!" Lily yelled in excitement.

"That is so not cool!" Luis yelled frustrated.

"Yeah, um that's not fair!" Jerome said.

"Aww, are you guys butt hurt now?"

"No." The guys scoffed.

"The worlds not fair." Leila told them.

"Yep. And one thing you should know about me is I don't play fair either." Lily said darkly as her and Leila climbed off of the guys. "Now, how about that ice cream!" Lily said, her mood switching completely. I took that moment to step in.
