Avengers Assemble?

The night had been long for Bonnie, too long, perhaps the longest night of her life. It was just a little hard for her to face the facts and truly acknowledge that on this night, she had nearly lost her twin-brother, who was currently laying comatose in Alchemilla Hospital in Kyoto. It was hard for Bonnie to see her brother in that sort of state, not moving, hooked up to tubes and barely alive with a chance of never waking up again. Bonnie stayed at the hospital as long as she could before she could bare it no longer and decided to leave. Wanting to clear her head that was filled with so many clouded emotions such as anger, sorrow and fear.

After leaving the hospital, Bonnie returned to the bar where Clyde was shot, exiting her truck to retrieve Clyde's 24/7 title that had been left out in the rain that washed away the blood that had been spilled. Bonnie then ventured inside the empty bar and retrieved her brother's tan trench-coat and brown leather cowboy hat. But as Bonnie picked up Clyde's hat, she stared at it for a moment and began to recall the days where her brother ran around the house with the same hat as child, clearly remembering how the hat was too large for the head of a 4 year-old Clyde. Upon recalling these memories, Bonnie's eyes began to water, she hugged the hat tightly against her chest before she began to cry, her tears staining the floor.

Getting even with those who had wronged her family was originally Bonnie's only concern, but now as she began to contemplate life without her brother, Bonnie didn't know how to handle it. She felt that if she lost Clyde, she would be losing a part of herself and didn't know if she had the will to continue on in a world without someone whom she had stood beside since birth. Bonnie's emotional troubles then drove her drown her troubles alcohol, as she fetched a bottle of whiskey on the floor and began to down what was left of the bottle before her phone went off suddenly. A Text Message From Heather.

"Hm?" Bonnie would mutter to herself before flipping her phone open to see an address to some place in Tokyo, followed by the word REVENGE. Bonnie's eyes then narrowed into a stern scowl as she clinched the bottle tightly in her hands before taking a long hard swig of it, setting it down as she began to put on her brother's tenchcoat and hat before walking out of the bar with the 24/7 title and a bottle of whiskey, heading towards her truck to travel from Kyoto to Tokyo.

Later, Bonnie finally made to the address that Heather had given her and naturally felt awkward about coming to rich looking a penthouse. Coming from a poor family, Bonnie wasn't used to places like this and actually felt a little intimidated. Nevertheless, Bonnie got out of her truck and walked up to the entrance door, still holding the bottle of whiskey as well as the 24/7 title over her shoulder and still wearing Clyde's trenchcoat and cowboy hat.

"How do ya... Work this?" Bonnie would mutter to herself before pushing the bottom on the intercom and holding it down. "Ey!! This thing on!?" Bonnie would yell out through the speaker, not knowing if she was even heard.

"Pfft... What the hell am I doin here... Im here for some goddamn payback, not a.... Not a... Vacation..." Bonnie would say to herself with a frown as she turned her back to the door and took another long hard swig of the bottle before wiping her slightly teared up eyes.

As Heather broke away from the hug quickly as the two came in. She would try to readjust herself as if nothing had happened. While she couldn't lie, the hug was nice, and she was glad to have Cecilia as a friend, it was definitely something new to her and having people come in on her while she was sharing that moment was quite embarrassing for her. Just as she went to say something, she would feel Cecilia wrap her arms around her again from behind, resting her chin on her shoulder.

"Wh-what?? Hey what are you doing??" Heather would let out, her face almost completely red as she heard Cecilia's words and the teasing tone that they held in them. "Wh..that's not it at all we were just talking about things she..the hug was just..Aaagh!! Why did you two get here so early!?" Heather would let out, stomping her foot as Cecilia held onto her tightly.

As she got Adrian's enthusiastic shouting and the girl raised up her hand, Heather would blink at her a few times before giving her the high five that she asked for. She didn't want to ruin the happy feeling that was going around, so she just went along with it as her face was still deeply reddened from Cecilia's teasing as she still held her tight.

"Eh..well...Let's just say, she got to someone close to me, just like what happened with Cecilia recently...but definitely..that's the deal." Heather would say, nodding at Adrian's words claiming they would take Gatt out. She would hear Rebecca's words afterwards and would nod her head again. "Glad to be a part of this.." Heather would say with a smile before she would hear the intercom going off.

"Ah! H-hey Cecilia as much as I just love your hug...you should probably get that. No doubt that's Bonnie." Heather would say, turning her head slightly to try to look back at Cecilia.

Cecilia smiled in response to her friends welcoming Heather on board, it was pretty nice to have them be so cool about it, and it was rather fun to see Heather react to Adrian, who seemed super up beat, which was always fun to watch her be, offering the High-five to Heather just looked pretty funny, and Cecilia just had a little, as she kept her hold on Heather, " Gatt's going down, and we have Heather on board! seems like we will be able to begin this thing now!" Cecilia said with a little smile on her face.

" Oh I am just having a little fun with you Heats, and telling them how it is" Cecilia teased as she smiled a little, if she wasn't so easily embarrassed by it, it wouldn't have been so fun to tease Heather, "Hehe, You guys, Tell Heather why you got her so early !" Cecilia said with a happy smile on her face, and winking towards Adrian after she spoke, " Shh, don't get so worked up dear" Cecilia teased as held on, " The hug was just wonderful" Cecilia said teasingly as she was just having a bit of friendly fun with Heather.

"Don't worry, We'll take them down, It'll be easy ! " Cecilia said as she winked to Adrian and hugged a bit tighter on Heather, Cecilia looked over at Heather, and smiled " Glad to have you be a part of this" Cecilia said to answer her on that front, it was a good feeling to have people around her that was like this, a nice feeling to have her friends around, and before she knew it time had passed, and the Intercom sounded off, Cecilia smirked at Heather words as she looked back at her, " Well, sure I'll get it, and then you can have another hug" Cecilia teased a little as she hurried of, and got to hear a girls voice, it was most likely Bonnie.

"Hey! you know I can hear you " Cecilia said as she talked into the Intercom, and then smiled a little, " Cutie that you?" Cecilia asked as she then said right after, " I'll be right down!" The Queen of Valkyries then stepped into the elevator and headed down to th bottom floor, hurrying up towards the door and opening for Bonnie, "Hello, and welcome! come on in! " Cecilia said as she gestured for Bonnie to follow her, over towards the Elevator, she looked back at Bonnie for a second noticing the trench-coat and cowboy hat, put on a more serious face, that was still kind, " How you doing cutie? things most be tough for you, come her" Cecilia went in to give Bonnie a hug, she had tried to be there a bit for Heather, and well, this must have been killing Bonnie, and she had liked Bonnie from the first time she met her, so it was easier to move in and hug her than it was to do that to Heather, not that it had been difficult, just to be there for her was a thing Cecilia wanted.

" Come here, let's get you inside okay" Cecilia said as she tried to walk over with Bonnie to the elevator.

Adrian was left with Rebecca and Heather as Cecilia dropped down to collect Bonnie still excited despite the somewhat somber mood "Don't worry, whatever they did. They'll get double, right?" She said trying to build up their confidence. "Oh right! Forgot. If this is the whole official start thing then I need my stuff." She said, quickly turning away to search her jacket for a USB memory stick.

"She's been planning this for a while," Rebecca explained. "We agreed to work to take her out a while ago but Adrian's been focused on it, after..." she hesitated, not wanting to reveal that she knew what happened to Adrian within her earshot "since she got injured the last time it's all she's been focusing on, drawing up plans, flow charts. The last time she did this it was fan fiction, where she churned out about thirty thousand words in a week." She said.

"And they were awesome words! Who are you to question Boone's love for Arcade?" Adrian shouted back, pulling out a laptop from Cecilia's stuff "...frick, everything's in Swedish."

While waiting in front of the doorway, Bonnie tapped her sneaker covered foot repeatedly, not liking the wait she had to endure despite it being only for a short time, unable to help but feel rather anxious to get things rolling and get her own personal revenge underway. It's all she had been thinking about ever since she left the hospital.

Suddenly a voice came over the intercom and Bonnie turned towards the doorway as she clearly heard Cecilia's voice, flirting with her in a rather cheerful mood. It made Bonnie release a slightly frustrated sigh, she was all business at the moment and was telling herself that now wasn't the time to be playing around. But when Cecilia emerged from the door, welcomed her inside before putting on a serious face as she went to give the Texan a hug, Bonnie froze for a moment. A hug from someone who cared was probably the best thing for her at the moment and although she didn't want to admit or show weakness, things had indeed been very tough for her lately and it felt good to have the comfort of someone.

"N-Nah... Im fine... A-Ain't nothin' I can't handle..." Bonnie would say through her reddened eyes that had been filled with tears all night, trying her best to remain sounding strong in the presence of others.

"O-Okay..." Muttered Bonnie out in agreement with Cecilia as she walked with the girl to the elevator.

"...of course she's going down." Heather would say in response to Cecilia, trying to make herself serious but her reddened face was preventing her from doing so. It wouldn't have been a big deal if it was just her and Cecilia, but now that people were witnessing it, the closeness with the hug was just all too embarrassing for her as she would look onto Adrian and Rebecca, quite glad neither of them were joining in on Cecilia's teasing of her.

"Th-that's not how it is though!" Heather would say, shuffling around a bit before Cecilia would continue on. "Don't get worked up?? How could I not??" She would say before Cecilia would finish one of her sentences that she let out earlier in her frantic search for an excuse. "Aaah that wasn't what I was going to say at all!"

As Cecilia would hug her tighter and talk of things on the team matter, Heather would nod her head, her face still lit up red. "R-right..well..Like I said I'm glad to be here..they're getting what's coming to them big time.." Heather would say before Cecilia would also notice the intercom going off. Hearing her words as she released her, Heather would cross her arms, trying to get rid of the blush on her face. "T-take your time.." Heather would say before she would turn to Adrian and Rebecca as Cecilia left.

"That's right..They are gonna pay." Heather would say agreeing with Adrian's words before the girl turned to fish something out of her jacket. Hearing Rebecca's words, Heather would tilt her head slightly. Rebecca seemed to know more than she let on, but Heather didn't reveal her full story to them, so she felt there was no place to pry. "Heh..well that's certainly some dedication."

"Looks like you're gonna have to wait till she gets back." Heather would say, turning back to Adrian as the girl complained of the language on the laptop. Heather figured that the three must already be pretty close if she could just go through her stuff, which was a good thing when it came to this. Heather would just let out a long sigh, standing there as she waited for Cecilia's return and Bonnie's arrival.

Cecilia walked with Bonnie to the elevator and smiled a little at her, " You Look good in that!" Cecilia said trying to maybe make her feel better that way, but then again, it might not be to good to do, in any case that was done, and nothing she could do about it now, she tried to move a hand up and place it in Bonnie's shoulder, looking at her with a bit of concern on her face as she said with a warm and kind tone.

" Bonnie, I'm sorry about what happened to you're brother, is there anything I can get for you, anything you want, just name it, food, drinks, ?" Cecilia asked before she put on a little smile as she looked at the girl with confidence, " You know, besides Sarah Gatt's head on a silver platter" Cecilia said with a little chuckle, before she turned a bit serious, " Seriously! I mean it, anything you want" Cecilia said as she then moved over to the keypad in the elevator and punched in the code, making the elevator to go up to the penthouse.

" Heather is here, but I guess you already knew that with her getting you here, and then Rebecca and Adrian, you know from the other night" Cecilia said as she smiled a little at Bonnie, " Well now you're here too, so.." Cecilia said as the Elevator doors opened up to reveal the Viking themed decorated Penthouse, " Welcome to our HQ!" Cecilia said as she then stepped out and started to head to the others, trying to maybe moved Bonnie along with her, " Addy, Becks! You remember Bonnie right?! " Cecilia said as she then walked over to Adrian who was on her laptop, " Haha, Changed everything to Swedish ! Here let me" Cecilia said as she went in and changed the settings to English, " There, now do what you got to do!" Cecilia said as she turned to Bonnie and then Heather.

" Make yourselves as home, I mean this is going to kinda be the HQ for us, so best for you two to get used to treat this place as a home." Cecilia said as she should bring up the same point to Bonnie as she did to Heather, about staying here, or well anywhere in the apartment complex, she thought of it as a sound plan, and it was a good way to keep check on the two, try to make sure that they wouldn't end up like Cat or Clyde, she had a feeling that she wouldn't be able to face Clyde if she let anything happen to well either of them.

"Hiii!" Adrian turned to wave as Bonnie entered the new Avengers HQ, still struggling with the laptop. Rebecca moved over to give a solemn nod, seeing what state Bonnie was in, everything seemed to be falling into place. "So this everyone or are we still waiting?" Adrian asked as Cecilia switched the laptop to English.

"You okay?" Rebecca asked Bonnie, just to make sure "I think Adrian wants to unveil her master plan." the amazon told Cecilia, rolling her eyes as Adrian played with a bunch of wires near the TV, trying to get the small computer display up on the big flat screen.

"Im sorry about happened to him too..." Bonnie would reply somberly to Cecilia's words of comfort with a saddened sigh, still feeling a bit responsible for not taking better care of Clyde and leaving him completely in Heather's hands. Bonnie felt that nothing should of changed between the two even though Clyde had moved in someone and was going to be father. She felt it wasn't right to handover her brother's well being like it was some sort of burden.

"...Huh? Nah Im good, Cec. I Got ma' drink right here." Bonnie would say to Cecilia after the girl offered Bonnie a drink, to which Bonnie declined since she still had the half-empty bottle of whiskey she had snagged from the bar where Clyde had been attacked. Bonnie's lips then curled into a light smile once Cecilia made her joke about Sarah Gatt's head on a silver platter, which in all honest truth was one of two things that Bonnie wanted right now which was for Clyde to reawaken and recover, while the other was of course revenge against those who had wronged her family. Kelly Conway & The Gatt Attack.

"Heh... Let me tell you somethin', Goldilocks... When you offer up Sarah Gatt's head like that... Ain't a damn thing I right now that I'd want more than that..." Bonnie would remark to Cecilia with a sly grin before taking in another swig of whiskey from the bottle she held.

"I know Heather's here... And I remember the other two... The more the merrier I guess... As long as none of y'all get in my way..." Bonnie would say to Cecilia with a for more stern and serious look in her eyes before the elevator doors opened and revealed the interior of the penthouse, causing Bonnie's mouth to suddenly drop open in shock and surprise at the sight of their headquarters, taking a moment to stare at the lavish place before seeing Adrian and Rebecca, prompting Bonnie to nod her head up at the two as if to silently say, "Sup."

A moment later, Bonnie saw Heather and her eyes narrowed towards the girl before she began to approach her. "I sure as hell hope you brought me here to get even with the Crap Attack, Sister-In-Law... Because so far it looks like you're on a muthafuckin' vacation instead of gettin' some goddamn revenge!" Bonnie would exclaim rowdily to Heather, in a joking, yet slightly bitter tone of voice. Bonnie then took another drink from the bottle in her hands before grabbing Clyde's 24/7 title that had rested on her shoulder and extended her arm out to hold the belt in front of Heather, expecting her to take it.



"Alley and Dee left it back at the bar with the hat and trench-coat... Figured I'd let you hold it... He got it for you after all... At least that's what he told me." Bonnie's would say at she kept her redded eyes hidden under the brim of her brother's hat as best she could.

After that, Bonnie would turn her attention back to the rest of the group, letting out a sigh before trying to speak, she would hesitate however and not speak in her regular loud and rowdy manner like she usually did. Instead she spoke in a soft, quiet and almost depressed tone on voice. "So...Uhh.... What's the plan?"

Heather would turn as the elevator opened revealing Cecilia and Bonnie. She would have to take a second look at the girl as she was wearing his trenchcoat and hat. With the blond hair and everything, it was almost like she was looking at a splitting image of Clyde until she stepped forward a bit. Her heart would skip a beat at the sight before Bonnie would step forward and she would suddenly hear Adrian talking.

Her question to Cecilia asking if there was anymore else coming caused Heather to shake her head. She figured Cecilia would answer because she was asked, but Heather didn't remember the girl mentioning anyone else so as far as Heather knew, everyone was here. She would see Adrian setting up things connecting to the TV and would tilt her head slightly.

However, just as everything came together, Heather would hear Bonnie begin addressing her as she approached her. "W-what?? Does it LOOK like I'm on a vacation???" Heather would say, her face still slightly red from earlier. "Of COURSE I brought you here to get back at Gatt. Wouldn't waste your time with anything else at this time. This is EXACTLY what we need to get back at her." Heather would let out before Bonnie would extend her arm, holding out Clyde's belt to her.

"..What.." She would let out before she would hear Bonnie explain. She would stare at the belt for a while before she would hold her hands out and take the belt from her. "Ah...th..thanks...I know I won't have to hold onto it for long though so you shouldn't worry." Heather would say, bringing a smile on her face, trying to cheer Bonnie up before she would turn to the other three, wondering as well the plan.
