Party Poison POV
Dr Death took Devil and Reaper into his office to talk about what they did while they were missing. I was curious to find out what was outside the zones. I didn't even know that there was anything out there, much less something that would take three years. And the fact that they needed to come back for backup. I was hoping we would find out soon.
"What do you think their story is?" Ghoul asked
I just shrugged. I had no idea what so ever. And it seems the rest of the guys, and Missile Kid had no idea either. We waited for them to come out when a lone killjoy came up to the door. I saw a mess of white hair and a blue and red mask. It was that ass hat Val Velocity. Me and the guys saw him and ran out to confront him.
As soon as we walked out he greeted us with a smart ass comment. "Ah hello, back from the party Party? I would have thought you would have joined in on the fun over in Bat City."
"Shut is Val." Jet said in frustration
Val laughed. It was clear that word of what happened had gotten around quickly. It seems Val is taking this as an opportunity to get under ours and Dr D's skin. Dr D never really favored him, he was always like the problem child.
"What? I thought I'd just come say hi to you guys after what had happened." He said with his hand over his chest, faking his dramatic flare.
"I was so worried about you Party. I just heard that Korse had kidnapped you and was planning on doing horrible things to you. To bad, I was looking forward to your funeral." He finished with a mocking laugh.
That last part angered Kobra, who ran forward to try and attack Val. But Val just pushed him back into us. Right after we caught him before he fell Reaper suddenly put his hand on Kobra's back. As if to say "Hold on kid". Then I looked at Val as Devil walked out in between us and him.
"Who the hell are you. Pretty little girls shouldn't be all the way out here." Val said mocking her
I didn't know what she would do in response. She was smart so she might not start a fight. But she is also violent so she could beat the snot out of him now. And she might do that, but Val is a great fighter, so he could win.
Devil just smiled "So you must be the infamous Val Velocity? Dr D had told me about you and I must say you have an impressive track record. Although I have heard that your also an arrogant prick."
Val narrowed his eyes. If Devil kept this up I could tell he would go ballistic. We walked closer to her and looked down at her. She kept eye contact with him and a smile plastered on her pale face. She held her ground and didn't move and inch back. Reaper clearly didn't like how close Val was to Devil, as he never took his eyes off of Val. I would have to ask Devil and Reaper what their relationship was later. But right now I had to pay attention to what was happening in front of me.
"You should watch it. Bad things happen to a lot of people out here. You should watch your back, or that pretty face may end up six feet under." He said as he grabbed a piece of her obsidian black hair. Probably trying to flirt with her.
She smacked his hand away, still maintaining eye contact.
"Don't lay a fucking hand on me you degenerate." She said finally dropping her smile to a more serious gaze. And if looks could kill, Val would be long dead. The air around seemed to be colder than the hot dessert air.
This seemed to upset Val as his fist collided with Devil's nose right after she said that. She didn't move from her spot. But Reaper moved forward a bit. He probably would have beaten the shit out of Val if it wasn't for Devil.
"Oh no don't worry Reaper. I can handle this situation." She said with her hand under her nose.
She removed it to see blood on her fingers. She let out a small chuckle and looked at him.
"You're going to pay for this blood. And you do it by letting me take my foot to your face." She said regaining her smile.
Val laughed at her, which would be a big mistake on his part. His laughing was brought to a stop when Devil's knee was rammed right in Val's... area. Then he fell to the ground after Devil elbowed him in the neck. He had one hand over both the spots she hit. Me and the guys all had wide eyes and dropped jaws. We kinda felt that.
Val coughed out a response. "You said you were gonna kick me in the face!"
Devil looked down at him with a look of no remorse. "You calling me a lier?" She said as her boot collided with Val's jaw.
He flew back a bit and landed on his backside. Devil stepped forward and placed her foot in the center of his chest. She looked at him with fury in her gaze. I almost felt sorry for they guy.
"Now you can just run back to whatever filthy hole crawled out of. I truly hope you learned your lesson." She said as she turned around and began to walked back.
But with her back turned she didn't see Val stand, or pull his gun from his holster. He aimed for her head and had his finger on the trigger. He was going to kill her.
However before any of us could warn her she spun around on her heel. She lunged forward and grabbed Val's outstretched arm. She pulled him down to the ground and pinned him in place.
"Holy shit." Ghoul said
"You really don't know when to admit you've lost do you?" Devil said as she pulled back on Val's arm.
We all heard a painful snap. Val screamed in pain. Her other hand was on the back of his head pushing his face into the course sand. She got off of him and stared him down. He got up swiftly and ran off in the direction of his vehicle.
She turned back to us. We were all in disbelief. I'm guessing she noticed our wide eyes and dropped jaws.
"What?"
"Nothing!" The four of us said in unison, hoping we weren't next.
We all walked inside and saw that Missile Kid and Dr D had been watching us through the window. Missile Kid looked at Devil with a smile.
"Wow."
Devil just wiped the rest of the blood off her face.
"Do you guys feel like doing a zone sweep real quick? Got the word that some Draks were in zone 4 today." Dr D said.
Devil turned to him "Sounds like fun."
