Lightning Strikes
 Stephen Remus sat in the office of his penthouse, smoking a cigarette as he looked out the window.

"You have your team. You ready for your first outing?" Remus asked the figure behind him.

"Yes," came the audibly distorted voice. "We know where they'll all be."

Remus takes another drag of his cigarette before responding. "Good. You've all been practicing, let's see how you do against the real thing. Good hunting."

The sound of metallic boots are heard leaving as the figure goes to announce the mission's start.

Millicent listened, nodding.

"I understand." It's then that Adrienne may realize that Millicent has led them to a place fairly clear of people. Millicent sighed as she stopped, turning to face Adrienne. "Honor is why I must do what I do now. Both professional, and personal honor." She threw off her trench coat to reveal she was wearing her Weapons Mistress armor. "I'll give you a minute to ready yourself."

Well. This was certainly unexpected. Fortunately, she had been wearing her own uniform under her street clothes. She quickly shucked her outer garments, retrieving her boots, gloves, and mask from her bag.

She bounced slightly on the balls of her feet, shifting to a fighting stance.

"I do hope you shall forgive me when I trounce you soundly," she said.

That gets a bit of a smile out of Millicent as she removes a small rod from her belt, which extends into a bow-staff.

"Always so cocky. I love you like a sister, Adrienne, but" Millicent's eyes harden as she charges forward, swinging her staff at Adrienne's legs. "I will prove I can beat you!"

"Sacre bleu!" Adrienne exclaimed, vaulting over Millicent and landing behind her, aiming a kick for her kidneys.

"Did you zink it would be zat easy?"

Millicent spun out of the way of the kick, bringing the rod down in an attempt to hit the knee.

"Of course not. I'd be disappointed if it was."

Now that hurt, but Adrienne kept moving, dropping into a low spin kick.

"You are, how zey say, getting good at zis."

Adrienne's kick sends Millicent down, but she pushes off of her back, leaping right back to her feet. The staff suddenly changes from a stiff rod into a pair of nunchaku.

"I've always been good, you just have a habit of not noticing things beyond yourself," Millicent accuses as she swings the weapon at Adrienne.

Adrienne ducked under the blow, aiming a few kicks as she righted herself.

"Please do not tell me you are still upset about zat?!"

Millicent did her best to either dodge or roll with the blows from the kicks.

"That was what opened my eyes. The black spot on our friendship." She swings the nunchaku once as a feint before turning with an elbow strike. "In the end all things fell back to you and what you thought. Well this time I'm going to prove that I am your equal!"

The elbow strike hit home, putting Adrienne back on the defensive.

"Ze boy would have been no good for you. I did you a favor."

Adrienne's statement temporarily halts Millicent's next attack.

"It was my decision to make! Who were you to determine what's best for me!?"

"You are my friend," she said. "I only want ze best for you. I could not bear to see your heart broken, like he would have done."
