Proven part IX
Devin, Dick, Kyra, and Danna didn't seem to notice as we left the room. They must have been too busy watching the array of dancers as the orchestra started to weave their pattern once again.
I breathed a sigh of relief as we reached the corridor leading away from the ball room. The hall was empty. We made our way down the corridor as a group, my arm around Jazz's. Suddenly, Nic pulled Alek into on off the open doors branching off from the hall. Jasper and I quickly followed, pulling the door shut behind us.
"Let's see it," Nic сказал(-а) immediately.
"What?" Alek asked.
"The Key, 'Lucky'," Nic said.
"I didn't pick that name," Alek reminded him. The irony of having the codename Thirteen and the alias Lucky had actually been my idea. "And it's not безопасно, сейф here. Ты can see it at base."
"Let's see," Nic said, "Who should hold the precious Key to opening the death toy? The rookie amateur или the highly trained leader of this team? Jasper?"
"Don't get me involved," Japer wisely said.
"Oh my Gosh," I said, annoyed that they were actually fighting over the Key like it was a shiny new toy, "let me see it."
Alek reached inside his куртка looking defeated, likely suspecting I was going to give it to Nic. The Key was actually only a small rectangle; only four inches long and an inch wide. It was the same material as the Weapon, though much heavier. I ruled out it being hollow.
"See the precious Key?" I asked, holding up the Key for Nic to see. He nodded and held out his hand, expecting the same thing as Alek.
Instead, I lifted the юбка of my dress slightly and slipped the Key into my нож sheath Далее to my dagger.
"I'm carrying it," I said, straightening the satin of my dress. Nic and Alek looked equally peeved. Jasper looked pleased.
"Shall we go?" Jazz said, motioning to the closed door.
"Yes," I said. Jazz opened the door and motioned to the corridor. "Ladies first."
"Thank you, sir," I сказал(-а) and curtsied. I stepped through the threshold and screamed. The meaty hand over my mouth muffled the sound. The нож at my neck silenced me.

“Ready to see the inner sanctum?” GA asked
“Born that way. Oh there ain’t no other way, baby I was born this way, I’m on the right track baby I was born this way!”
*enter Hall of Justice*
“Quick debrief to discuss the coincidence of four ice villains attacking on the same day. We shouldn’t be long” Бэтмен said

“That’s it? Ты promised us a real look inside, not some glorified backstage pass” Roy says angrily
“It’s a first step. You’ve been granted access few other’s get”
“Oh really?! Who cares what side of the glass we’re on?”
“Roy, Ты just need to be patient-“ Green Стрела starts
“What I need, is respect. R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me. R-E-S-P-E-C-T, take care, TCB! Ohh!”
*Roy struts out*
“Roy is secretly a black woman. That explains so much” Ollie muttered
