Go Inside

I decided I'd take a closer look inside. I walked over to the roof access. It was locked but it was just a normal door so it was no match for my strength. I slowly made my way down into the building, which was completely dark. After my eyes adjusted, I found that it was nothing more than an old run down hotel building. If I had to describe it, I'd refer to it as a s***hole.

Using a bit deductive reasoning, I was able to find the door to the room under the skylight. Again, the door was locked but I made short work of it. The room inside was much nicer than the rest of hotel. It was clean, it smelled nice and clean and it was well furnished. I started looking around the room seeing if there was any trace of Siphon.

Suddenly the lights came on. I whirled around and standing in the door way with a surprised look on her face was none other than Siphon. She had ditched the skin tight cat suit for a form fitting black dress that tied around her neck. Her legs were covered with black fishnets and she wore a pair of sexy silver high heels. Her hair was done up in a bun but instead of cowl she now wore a black domino mask.

I could see the gears in her head turning as she realized that her arc nemesis was somehow standing in her lair. "Well this is a surprise. I'm going to have to have a word with that Ninja of mine. He's supposed to deal with pest." I put my hands on my hips. "I took care of your pet ninja a few nights ago and now I'm here to take care of you Siphon." She giggled and gave me a sly smile. "Is that so babe? Maybe you forgot how things went last night?" I crossed my arms. "I know what your powers are now. I'm not going to make the same mistake twice." She started laughing again. "I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you. You see, a little birdy told me that you had made a date with that slut of a woman Dena Ross." My sweat dropped. "You told her to meet you at the Starlight Lounge. And I must thank you for doing that because it made it very easy to go and collect her." I rushed her. I grabbed her by the throat and slammed her against the wall. Lifting her off her feet and making sure she couldn't reach any bare skin. "What have you done with her Siphon!!!" As she gasped for air, she managed to say. "Oh my. I guess you two really are more than friends." I increased the pressure around her throat. "SHUT UP!!!!" Where is she!!!?" She smiled at me. "What makes you think I'm going to tell?" "Because if you don't, you'll regret it." "Oh please, heroes don't kill sweetheart." I glared at her. "You'd be surprised what you can live through." She playfully nodded in agreement. "Fair enough. Tell you what sweet cheeks, take that belt of yours off and maybe I'll tell you."

This was a complex situation: Dena was once again in trouble and this time I had no idea were she was now. My guess was that Siphon had brought her here. She must have changed her costume to kidnap her from the club without raising suspicion. But for all I know she could have taken her somewhere else. I could try to make her tell me were she was at but there was no garentee that she would crack. Maybe my best bet would be to do what she says. I'll bet even without my belt I could take this b****.
