Two weeks, for fourteen days the green worm has held me here inside the great hall he has now created for himself, within more than thirty or forty members at any one time take up residence inside, knowing they are for once safe, from the justice league.
“A word in your ear”
I turn sharply, looking at the woman in silver armour that stands before me, I recognise her from last weeks recruitment her name is Frances Kane, her code name – Magenta. She has the power to manipulate magnetic fields. She had come here after attempting to blow open a major New York bank. Only the deal had gone sour fast and she was soon facing a handful of league members. She managed to escape, but barely, as soon as she got word of the underground movement that Mr Mind was creating, she signed up, she hasn’t tried to leave the building once since.
“No need to be so quiet Frances, our leader is perhaps the most powerful telepath on the planet, what we do, what we say and even what we think is all seen by his watchful eyes. So just talk”
“My name is Magenta, at least it is whilst I’m within these walls and the reason I want to talk to you in private is because the last time I tried to do something on my own, I nearly got sent to jail. So right now I’m choosey about who I want working with me”
“So you are saying you want to attempt another job, good. Mr Mind was wondering if your fractured psyche was up to the task”
“Hey I was nearly killed and incarcerated by my old teammates so don’t try and give me some cheap psycho babble all right”
“Indeed, then let us go to work”
“What with just the two of us, what are you out of your mind”
“A little, but I suggest we bring with us two more members”
“Who do you have in mind?”
“You said you trusted me before, then do so again and I assure you, that this time the bank vault and all its contents will be ours”

“What the hell are we going to do when the entire league turns up?”
Looking coldly into Magentas eyes, without speaking a word I make sure that any nerves she has leave her. “We stick to the plan”, looking around I look at the other two members of the injustice league I chose to bring with me. “Fatality, I want you to blast a whole in the outer most wall. Magenta I want you to burst that goddamn safe wide open, Fatality I then want you to use your ring to collect the money and then its just a simple matter of us all taking our leave.
“I have but one question then honey, if all this plan needs is the three of you, then why did you bring me”
I spin around, since working for Mr Mind I’ve come to learn that any voice raised is always a bid on stealing your position. Knowing this new found fact I slowly turn around once more, this time I do more than just stare, I allow my power to radiate off of me, lowering the surrounding temperature to something more uncomfortable for the average human.
“You will be watching our backs, in case the league show up… well you are one of the worlds leadings assassins are you not?” the mock in my tone angers her, my display of power leaves her with an edge of caution. She wants me dead, but better yet she wants to prove me wrong before she kills me, which means right now they could send Superman himself and she would still find a way to take him out.
“Cheshire will be watching our backs, she’s a glorified gymnast at best, what good is a girl who can punch and kick against Wonder Woman”
“Have faith Magenta, in a few more minutes this will all be over” once more I look around at my assembled team, who knew that just a few months ago I was a potential scientist at Wayne enterprise and here I am just a few weeks later attempting to rob a city bank with perhaps three of the most dangerous criminals in the city. “Ok lets do this”
I watch as Fatality takes to the skies, her violet aura surrounding her with pulsating power before finally a burst of energy explodes from her ring, it carves into the side wall, like an earthquake, the wall shakes and collapses under the power sent against it. From inside you can hear the screams of the public now trapped beneath rubble, whilst others flee in fear. Magenta is already moving before me, pulses of energy cascade around her body as she distorts the electro magnetic spectrum to gently float to the ground; she is confronted by the banks security who already have their guns aimed and ready.
“Foolish men, do you think them guns will protect you” no sooner has she said the words than does one of the guards open fire, several small metal bullets leave the gun but suddenly stop in mid air as if hitting an unforeseen wall. “Allow me to return the favour” Magentas voice is almost happy as she uses the security guards own bullets to take down the two men that apposed her. Blood seeps out onto the pavement, Magenta simply steps over the two bodies that lay beneath her feet before entering the bank.
“Fatality follow her in, I want a shield erected around her whilst she pulls the vault clear”
“Understood, what about the rest of the public”
“Leave them to me” I leave the high-rise building, sliding down to the ground on a platform of ice that I myself create. I continue on the ice slide until I’ve cleared the opening created by Fatality’s blast. Once inside I hear the delightful screams of the public and bank workers.
“Freeze” I speak with a coldness rasp as beams of ice shoot forth from my hands, I work my power around the room and in seconds everyone except for my team are encased in ice.
“Magenta how’s your progress”
“The vault sure is sealed in good, but its slowly working itself free, in fact I think I have it now” power becomes tangible around Magenta like one of Fatality’s constructs as suddenly and sharply the metallic vault tears free from its brick like encasing, before finally sitting before us. “Now for the lock” once more her power bends the metal to her will as slowly the door is bent backwards on itself like a tin of sardines.
“OK DONE”
“Great work Magenta, Fatality collect the money and lets blow this joint”
“Not so fast Frost”
“Who the hell are you guys?”
“Were the kids who are going to wipe the floor with you”
