Everyone was frozen solid, I choked on a laugh, before turning around to face Blue, "please tell me that I can call Daniel and he can just get us out of this" I hissed at him.

Blue looked down at me, "technically he could ... if he hadn't been injected with a serum that will leave him down for the next 3 hours" he winced.

Que the panic.

"What the fuck is going on?" Sasha screamed as Blue pivoted away from the rest of us.

"We need to stay calm, we can handle this, we just need to stay calm and th- oh fuck are the walls moving in?" Klaus hissed his eyes wide as they shot around the room looking at the walls.

Here we go.

"Shut up! Who the hell is the Shadow?" Bonnie snapped at everyone.

The guys lips immediately tightened as Trina, Bonnie, Sasha, and Cha looked up at them.

They knew about the Shadow? Why in the hell would they know about the Shadow? "And why would he lock us all in here?" Trina threw in her own question.

If they all knew about the Shadow ... that could only mean that either Blue told them out of solidarity, complete bullshit, or they had had their own run ins with him.

He wasn't just after me or Blue, or the serum. He was contacting other villains, but was it just villains or .... was he also in the market for heroes?

And what did this all add up to? What was his end goal?

I turned away as Sasha started to twist Nate's nipple and demand answers.

I quickly turned and followed Blue who was currently over at the bar, a drink in his hands as he stared off into space.

I took the seat next to him and turned my whole body towards his, it was time we started laying our cards on the table.

If the Shadow wasn't only sliding into our DM's, that means that that asshole's balls were way bigger than I had originally thought.

I snatched Blue's drink from his grip and tossed it completely back, wincing at the burning sensation that shot down my throat.

I slammed the empty glass back down on the table and slid it back towards Blue who was currently staring at me with an amused look on his face, but sadness was in his eyes. "Where the hell did I get you from?" he whispered.

"Don't you remember? A dark alley way" I smirked as his lips continued to twitch.

"Have I apologized yet?" he questioned.

He was making me nervous, "since when does the Blake Dun apologize? And especially to a stripper for the blind?" I fake gasped.

His lips broke as he flashed me a small smile.

"He usually doesn't, except apparently for the girl who has his left testicle in his back pocket" he sighed as he leaned over the bar and grabbed a bottle of alcohol and poured himself another drink.

Now something was most definitely wrong, he would never admit that, and his voice ... he almost sounded like he was about to say goodbye.

"Alright Balder, spit it out, add another punch line to this shit show, so we can get over it already" I sighed.

He didn't even look up at me, but the lights flickered.

It wasn't him.

"I thought it was over, I thought it was done ... or he wouldn't try again at least" Blue muttered to himself.

"What the hell are you going on about?" I hissed at him as my hand clamped down on his arm, he turned to look at me out the side of his eye.

"I'm sorry, Katrina. You're the only thing I care about and I put you here" he groaned.

Now I was on level 100. This self confident, smirk-in-his-back-pocket asshole, was acting like we were out of options. That was making me nervous.

"Blue, what's happening?" I snapped as I yanked on his arm making him swing towards me.

He swiped his hand down his face, "we're going to be taken. Me, Klaus, DG, Vap, Snake, and Herc. Every last one of us is going to be taken tonight and theres nothing you can do about it" he sighed.

I blinked at him.

Then twice.

Then slapped the shit out of his face.

His eyes were glowing back at me in anger in less than a second flat, his hand nearly crushing the bones in my hand that he was gripping, "what the fuck, Katrina!" he hissed.

"Yeah, Blue. What the fuck? As in what the fuck did you take that made your balls retreat back up into your body?" I growled at him.

He bared his teeth at me, "You don't understand there's no other options, Katrina none of us can use our powers, he ... fuck he stole my mind control machine, that I spent a shit ton of money on, BTW, and now it makes sense. He's about to make the world's most notorious villains skip their asses out those doors and become his little bitches for all of time".

Now I needed a drink.

"What does he need you assholes for?"

"Our DNA ... he's planning on making the serum stronger. I guess he's trying to make himself un-defeatable, which isn't a terrible plan. I respect it" Blue shrugged like we were talking about a fucking basketball game.

"So what? ... He's going to draw your blood? He needs a piss sample? I'm confused what-"

"He's going to plunge a large tube into our chest cavities and suck the blood, mixed with highly evolved DNA out, which will then kill us. It's what he's been doing for months to Supers all over, it was while we were ... not speaking-"

"I broke up with you-"

"-That I figured that out. He's made several attempts on the boys and I over the past week ... part of the reason I sent you away" Blue shrugged as he slipped nonchalantly on his drink.

You know when your in a life or death situation and there that one little bitch who's just calmly sitting back because they know there no way to get out of this. It's destiny or fate, or some bullshit like that, and so they just sit back and wait for the shit storm to hit?

Those assholes in the movies who are just so calm in the face of death and danger? Well I hate those mother fucker, and you know who was playing his role pretty fucking great, right now? Blue god damn Doom.

And my last little shred of sanity that had been kicked on, stomped on, and shit on, since he tried to break up with me a week ago, snapped.

"So this is whats going happen. First, I need you to perk up, you are being highly unattractive right now. Second, I need you to tell me you're going to fight that creepy S.O.B. because if you don't I will, and if I do, we both know it'll end with damage exceeding a million dollars, along with some of my own bodily damage. Then, once this is all over you're going to be better to me, do you understand you Blue Condom? The sun better start shinning on my ass, and I want dates, and moments, and strolls, even if you think it's stupid. I fucking deserve this, because you aren't allowed to be a whinny bitch. That's my job. And we stay in our lanes. Now, tell me exactly what the fuck is about to happen or so help me God, Blue, I will break that bottle of Whiskey and shove the fun side up your ass. Got me?" I smiled down at him.

His lips were struggling to stay still but he wasn't winning.

He looked down, the smile taking over his entire face, "you're fucking perfect" he whispered, before looking up at me, in control. "He stole my mind control machine, which means that he will probably reprogram it to make villains in this room follow his orders, the doors aren't locked like Klaus said, he put a field around the building so that the villains couldn't leave but also so that we can't use our powers. I can't feel the electricity lines around us anymore, so once he has control of us he will probably drop the field. Thats when you need to get out of here, I don't care about anyone else, but I need you to get out as soon as it drops, just run. I don't know if he'll try to come for you after he has us" Blue said before throwing back another drink.

I was shaking now.

"You aren't going to pull this shit on me, Blue. Do you under-" he crashed his lips to mine, swallowing all the words I was about to smash into the side of his head.

The feeling of completeness never stopped throwing me for a loop. His warm lips completely devoured mine, his hard unyielding body crushing mine to his. Every kiss was like having all the air dragged slowly out my body.

I his voice muffled the moan of pleasure that vibrated out of my lips into his.

He pulled back roughly, his bright eyes shining into mine. It was like looking into the sun after me shoved into a freezer.

I wanted to be mad at him. I wanted to yell at him. I wanted to hold him to my chest and never let go. I had so much to say to him in that second where I could feel his body against mine.

Like it was suppose to be.

"Shut up, Katrina. I just want to dance with you" he sighed before he stepped back and slowly walked me back into the crowd of people who were dancing.

He easily spun my clumsy body around, before crushing me back to his chest and immediately swaying us to the sound of the music.

I wanted to, but I couldn't look away from his unnatural eyes.

"What are you doing?" I sighed as my body unconsciously relaxed against his.

"Dancing. Making sure you don't assault anyone else on this dance floor" he smirked down at me.

I just stared up at him, "don't go".

"I don't really have a choice".

"Then fight with me, I need you to go kicking and screaming" I whispered up at him, an uncomfortable feeling settling into my chest. A tightness that almost made me feel like I couldn't breathe.

"I just want to just spend these last few moments with you in my arms, watching you fail miserably at dancing" he chuckled.

I looked away at the ground, "how many more times are you going to do this to me?" I hissed annoyed as I could feel my eyes watering.

"Do what?"

"Break my heart?" I hissed.

He was silent while I kept my eyes anywhere but on his face. "You want to know what my favorite day is?"

"When you threw that plan at the White House?" I sighed sniffling a little.

"Nope ... top ten though"

"When you stapled Star Man's cheek on national television?"

"No ... but thats top five" he chuckled darkly.

"When you threw that death shark at Star Man's meet and greet?"

"Well that was a pretty great day, but no. My favorite day that I've had on this earth is when you interrupted my super business and-"

"When you were committing arson?" I cut in as I turned back to look him in his eye.

"-Super business-"

"You lit a building on fire with a cigarette" my lips were twitching as I tried to fight back a smile, as he turned and glared down at me.

"For the greater good".

"Oh sure" I mocked him, my eyes sweeping past his face when I saw it.

The symbol.

It was pinned to an old greying woman. She had it place right on her dress as she and some man swept across the dance floor, "Blue, what is that symbol?" I asked him as I nodded to the woman's pin.

He turned confused before looking back at me, "it's the city's symbol, you dumb ass. It's on everything, but it stands for the city's council" he said looking down at me confused.

"Who's on the council?"

"10 families, and the Mayor. Pretty sure your parents are on it" he sighed before his eyes narrowed down on my shocked face. "Why? What do you know?" he asked me.

"That building you burned down, had that symbol on the side of it. The office building you destroyed last week, everyone was wearing that symbol, Blue. I think the Shadow is on the council. I think he-"

"Katrina Justice" a voice halted our conversation.

Blue and I both turned.

Why God? Why?

There standing in front of us was Lee Don and Lia Wu.

The two people in this world I would rather eat a hot spoon that see again.

Lia looked gorgeous as always, she was decked out in a wispy black dress that flowed around her beautifully, and Lee was dressed nice and clean with a tux on.

He still looked like creepy as all hell, Lia on the other hand was eye sexing Blue like he wasn't dressed in a tux to begin with.

My eyes narrowed in on her harshly, while Blue's hand easily slid around my waist, pulling me closer to him.

Lee and Lia's eyebrows shot up in surprise.

"Lee. Lia." I replied back curtly.

Lee sent me a watery smile, as his eyes stood stuck on Blue's arm wrapped possessively around my waist.

"It's been awhile since we've seen you around" Lee smiled nervously.

I gave him big fake smile, "well I was kidnapped, but I heard you two announced your engagement, while I was taken".

Lee winced. Lia smirked.

"It's good that you escaped perfectly safe. A miracle really" Lia gave me one her sly smirks.

"I know right! What are you two doing here? Is there another fuck your best friend's boyfriend convention going on?" I asked them kindly.

Lee's whole face went red as he started to choke.

Blue's body vibrated slightly as he choked down a laugh, he leaned down, "you're being mean Katty ... you're making me hard" he muttered down into my ear.

I bit my lip to stop from laughing at his crazy ass.

"Katrina ... we really are sorry about that. It was just true love .. we couldn't fight it" Lia gave me a pity expression.

Dirty little bitch.

"It's fine Lia. I completely understand. When your meant to be with someone, you just can't help it" I sighed looking up at Blue as he quirked his eyebrow down at me.

"Who's your friend?" Lia butted in.

I felt my eye twitch, Blue was trying so hard not to laugh right now. I turned back to her, "this is Blake Dun-".

"I'm the boyfriend" Blue said before stepping forwards and shaking Lia's hand, "try not to seduce me, right?" he chuckled as Lia froze completely shocked as Blue moved from her to Lee, who he slapped quite hard on the back of his sweating body.

Lee never liked confrontation.

"Lee, my man, you still not allowed around children? Or did that whole thing get cleared up?" Blue asked like he was dead serious.

I was trying to hard to force myself not to laugh aloud, "you'll beat the charges Lee, I believe in you" Blue continued on.

"Wh-?"

Blue stepped back a bright smile on his lips, both Lia and Lee looked absolutely blown away shocked.

They didn't know what else to do, so they kind of just stumbled off speechless.

Blue turned back to me an evil little smile on his face.

I couldn't stop beaming at him.

"You were really mean" I tsked at him, I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling our bodies back together, "it was really hot" I chuckled.

His hands slipped back around my waist, "I'm always hot" he smirked.

I pulled him closer, "but that was extra hot" I whispered to him as little laughs escaped out of my mouth.

"I can't believe you dated a pedo" Blue threw back at me, amusement drowning his voice.

I bit my lip to stop from completely dying of laughter, "he's not a pedo".

"He looks like a greasy Clark Kent, he could have his own movie, Man of Steel Your Kids" he barked out.

My eyes water as I slapped a hand over my mouth to stop from busting out laughing completely. I looked back up at Blue, "now you, Blue Doom, you are fucking perfect" I smiled up at him.

He opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he stopped. The light left his eyes along with the focus. His hands dropped from my body and he stood there completely motionless.

He was gone.

The Shadow had him now.
