"Okay, girls. You all must be very confused. So, Dr. Anonymous is a very bad guy. He wants to kill all the females in town.Together, we are called, 'The Girl's Guardian Group'. We were all united because of our special talents, and because our mothers were in it together. We all have our mother's special abilities and jobs. Together we are the ultimate team." Sierra smiled with satisfaction.
"Wait, if we were brought here for our special talents, what are the things that make us so special?" I asked, wanting to know why me, of all people, would've been chosen to be leader.
"Evalee, your mother was the scout. She was agile, she was flexible, and she could hide like a ninja. You have the exact same abilities.You are agile and cat-like. She was also really good with swords. That one in your hand is your mother's favorite sword. You are the scout." Sierra said, directing towards Evalee, who was spinning her sword in her hand from nervousness.
"Tiffany, you mother was the fighter. She was really good with hand-to-hand combat and guns. She was silent but deadly. Together, your mom and my mom were lean, mean killing machines. You are the fighter." Sierra directed to Tiffany. Who was spinning her gun on one finger.
"My mother was the panner. She planned missions, strategies, and escape routes. She was strong, smart, and always on her toes. She was like your mom Tiffany. Loved guns, and fighting." She smiled.
"Megann, your mom was the leader. She had all of our talents combined. Except yours. You, are the ultimate hacker. You can hack into any system. Heck, I remember when you accidentally hacked into the Pentagon. Your mother couldn't do what you can. The team depends on you. Also, your mother was really good with bows. She could hit a target a mile away." She told me, reminding me of my mom. I won't cry. I won't cry.
