Resident...Evil?
Despite the garbage that went down earlier in the week, Melissa found herself a happier camper today. The Boss Man's check cleared; she and Kelly were now much more financially solvent. After a call to her lawyer, Diane, to get bills and things paid, Mel goes downstairs to have herself a victory dance, or as they're called, a beer. Never mind that it's early in the morning and that she hasn't hand breakfast, which also sounds like a good idea, Mel just wants to enjoy having her money, her girl, her magic and her guns.

Kelly was right about this whole mercenary gig; it paid dividends, even if being shot at and nearly killed by life-draining nutjobs was part of the job. They'd also done the world a favor by removing Benedict Kine's sorry self from it, and Mel figured they deserved medal for that. Instead, they got hefty-paychecks. Maybe she'd /buy/ herself a medal.

She walks into the kitchen, going through the cupboards to see if there's any eggs to make an omelet. If there is bacon, it's left untouched.

Bacon is against her personal religion.

	"Oh no," Anya said when she saw what had happened to Victor. "Let's get inside away from the gawking." She looked at Kelly. "Yes. The Avengers fought them a few times and Sydney used to be a member," Anya said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sydney offered a semi-apologetic shrug. "I made some bad choices," she said simply. She restrained her reaction to Victor's condition, but not completely. "We can fix him," she said. "...I think." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Wait. Angry Bug Babe used to be on the wrong side of the law? Melissa found a little irony in that, considering how Sydney treated her and Kelly. She /really/ wanted to say something about it, but decided that just now might be a really bad time. "Well, this whole science bit isn't my thing. You need something done magic-wise, let me know." she says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Let's get inside. Syd and I can get Victor up and running, more or less. Damage Control is on their way, but if you guys want to make a list of things destroyed I'll work on getting stuff replaced." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I'll work on it, but I think the destruction is 'most of the block'. Those hits to the ground destroyed the water lines, disrupted power, put major gaps in the streets. This is going to be a spendy one." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Sydney wondered what she had ever seen in the Masters. It seemed like a lifetime ago. And it had seemed like a good idea at the time. She figured it would be good for a few thrills, a few big time robberies maybe, or black mailing the world with a ray gun on the moon. Not some kind of crazy ass vendetta.

What was the saying? The only thing needed for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing. She'd done nothing. Maybe that made her worse.

Nice to see life could actually dump on her more beyond being transformed into something that might not even be human any more.

	"The building is on an independent power source than the rest of the block. We'll be fine. Let's get moving. We have a lot of work to do." (Reply to this)(Parent)
