He pulled up to an alley and got out of the car, the fourth one he had stolen in the course of the day. Barely looking behind him to see if anyone was there he strolled down the alley, tossing a greasy sandwich wrapper to the ground.
When he reached the dead end he snapped his fingers and the brick wall slowly opened and a long stairway into the sky appeared."She needs to teach me how she did that." Taking a few steps up he stopped to look around at the view. He was already across the country.
"This is so convenient." he continued up the stairs, which ended at a plain brown door, he knocked once and entered."It's about time you are back!" yelled Laverna."Calm down. No one saw me." he paused in thought then chuckled "well no one can identify me."
"You are a fool." she snarled. "They don't need to know you. They know you are around. That is bad enough!" she ran a hand through her hair "And to try and tempt our foes.""Don't worry. They are probably planning a funeral for that strange little guy."
"Yes, what did you mean you took your shot. What about Walfrus.""I remember how weak I was when I first got the mask so I decided to try & take him out while he was weak." he tossed a cylinder on the table and sat down. "That's when, Walfrus? That's when he jumped in front of me.
Laverna sat down "Are you sure you hit Walfrus?"He nodded "Yes. some robot covered the guy and Walfrus jumped in front of both. I was aiming for his chest so I got Walfrus in the head. I ran though, that big wolf was a little scary."Laverna sat forward "Wolf?"
"The size of a car! I'd be more worried about that thing.""Damnit!" she slammed a hand on the table "That has to be Fenrir." She stood and headed to the door."Where are you going?" She spun on her heel "I have to talk to someone, see if you completely screwed our plans."
