In a seaport, there lies an enormous fortress of Fish, the great. Kraken divided her team, each one on every base.

She knocked off the huge foyer revealing an empty ground floor. The only commodity that welcomed them is a cold shiny floor with fishes in colorful graffiti.

A noise that seems like coming from rough radio waves wrapped up the succeeding floor. It grabs their attention.

Kraken walked upstairs and found a hall covered in blood to the full extent. It was terrifying. It looks like someone enjoyed a killing spree.

The sound coming from the radio placed above a cupboard is the creepiest, it plays the infamous song of Taylor Swift, Love Story.

Weirdness joined the scene when they saw a woman across the hall. She was lying helplessly on the cold floor. She was naked.

Despite the hall being covered in madness, the woman doesn't even have a single drop of blood in her body. She was, in fact, lying on an enormous length of sheets that are being elongated to look like a tentacle. They are gorgeously scattered on the whole scene.

" She's as creepy as Enchantress, " Beastie exclaimed.

" As creepy as your mom, Beastie," Enchantress responded.

" Duh, " Beastie answered back and chuckled sarcastically.

A 'gear up' firearm thundered across the hall when the woman moved a single inch.

Upon Kraken's command, Rogue approached the woman. She was accompanied by Stewart.

" Relax, " the latter said.

Unforeseen, the sheets slowly moved on their own.

" Relax. Your face, " Rogue responded upon noticing a sheet coming her way. She ably avoided what seems to be an attack " This shit attacks, " she added, informing everyone.

Stewart, on the other hand, smirked as she ably swung off the knife to cut 'em all off " These are papers. I thought there were either cloth or fabric and extremely high quality ! " she added.

"And it could kill you, forthwith, " said Beastie, analyzing its schemes "This thing killed everyone in the room," she concluded.

" Guess I'll tear them up like a piece of sheet, " Enchantress grinned and pulled a knife.

Beastie's conclusion was confirmed when a regiment blew attacks on them. They appeared like pointed serpent heads.

Kraken was ably cutting through the attacks but never took her eyes off the woman. She can clearly see the strong features, bold brows, and seemingly badass she possesses. Especially, those striking sleeve tattoos!

"Kraken is getting fired up, " Enchantress uttered as she rolled her revolver and shot a group of attacks. She saw Kraken walking through the mayhem in a very cool manner " I think she's closing the spaces between her and miss nakey, " she added.

" She's coming, " Rogue said as she swung her finest defense. She's referring to Kraken.

" Damn. They're everywhere, " Beastie complained and swung her blades in a swirling tone. She counter-attacked.

Everything halted, even the serpent-like sheets when they heard a helicopter roaming around.

Through the window, Kraken could clearly see Fish holding a huge machine gun pointed at them. He was inside a helicopter with those familiar colorful fish graffiti, identical to that on the ground floor. It was his signature, his name say it, tho.

" Rest in Peace, squid balls!" Fish yelled. He's wildly firing at them while laughing boisterously.

" Grab low!!!" Kraken commanded the team.

Fish never had enough, he brings out his 20mm cannon and fires at his own mansion.

It was a full blow that brought the whole house down!

" Adiós!" he bid and flee off the sky with a devil laugh.

Kraken was able to jump off the mansion before the full blow hit the target. She followed the woman who used the sheets to wrapped her naked body, it immaculately sneaks out like a mantis in rough warfare.

She felt extensive suspicion when the woman went inside a black van with a government emblem in it.

The whole squad checked on the nearby island as if nothing happens the day before. Everyone is exhibiting two-piece outfits, enjoying the summer facade.

" You meant the naked woman went inside a van with a government emblem?" Rogue asked.

Kraken sipped on her wine glass and stare at the beautiful sunset.

" She looks like an assassin to me," Enchantress said.

" She is in fact, in here, " Beastie said while holding down her sunglasses.

The woman is on a two-piece suit.

"She looks hotter. Those impressive tattoos, tho," Stewart muttered.

Men in black suits are all over the place as she approached them.

" I think we've met yesterday, " the woman greeted as she approached Kraken " I'm Ruby Rose, " she added and extend her hand for a handshake.

It stood awkward.

" What is she doing?" Rogue said clarifying the awkward situation but Beastie glared at her trying to tell her to shut up.

Kraken looked at the hand with a no-I-don't-shake-hand written all over her face but Beastie held her hands and shake it, instead. She then mouthed the words she-has-PMS.

Stewart shrugged her shoulders. Beastie always got the shady joke.

" So, what brings you here beside killing us?" Enchantress asked nonchalantly.

Everyone halted and glanced at her.

" It was a mistake, " she said " Fish outfitted his people like a military. No one told me you were coming, " she added.

" What military?"

" Never told you? Who?"

" Did you kill everyone in that room?"

" Mistake? What the hell--"

" Guys! Stop it. Let her finish, " Beastie exclaimed.

" I was a lab rat, the rosie killing machine type. A government experiment sent by the defense head to help you take down Fish, "

"That explains the Men in Black, " Stewart said.

" Do you think we believe you? You just can't tell these things right in front of our face in the middle of the public, " Rogue responded " Freak, " she added.

" This is my first mission and I never tried socialization," Ruby responded.

" Well, you are now, "

" That is why you can't identify real soldiers and not? How lame, "

" It doesn't mean being a soldier, you can't have fashion. Please spare me from those rags and garbage,"

" Your defense mechanism synchronizes Fish's person, " Ruby said and pointed Kraken " Except her, she has a resilient attack mechanism I never saw before, " she added.

" Right, " Stewart said, unconvinced " But our 'defense mechanism' is an alpha class. Fish's not, " she added.

A phone Ruby was holding, rang.

" If you please excuse me, " she said and answered what seems to be a phone call.

As soon as she walked away, they commence a chattering.

" She's a freak, "

" What is she talking about?"

" I'm puzzled, "

" My head hurts, "

" She's indeed a lab rat!" Beastie exclaimed as she went inside the suite. Everyone is gathered for a movie night.

" Finally, a clarification from the nerdy beastie, " Stewart said.

Beastie sat in front all of 'em. She has her big eyeglasses on with a very high grade. She is your true nerd girl.

" Franco gave me her full profile, " she said.

" Is there anything between you two?" Enchantress asked.

Beastie glared at her.

The girls are reading the whole content while Kraken sat on the veranda. She was sipping on her wine glass when someone knocks on the door.

It revealed Ruby Rose.

" I told her to come over, " Beastie told everyone.

Rogue and Enchantress gave Ruby a cutlass gaze.

" Hi hottie, " Stewart, on the other hand, greeted and scanned Ruby's sexy nightgown in champagne.

" So we're not properly introduced, " said Beastie, " I am Elle a.k.a Beastie. They call me that. I am more of technical, " she added and pointed her complex computer set.

" They are Billie Ellish a.k.a Rogue and Cara the Enchantress, I call her that. The two of them are more on combat and anything with a weapon, " she said, pointing them respectively " And this is Stewart the hawk-eye, she never misses," she acted like an archer with a bow.

Kristen winked at her flirtily.

" You are disgusting, " Enchantress whispered on the latter.

" And the humble captain, but she doesn't want to be called that way, Samantha Putin the Kraken. She's a Barbadian," she chuckled " She's like a pirate off-duty, " she whispered.

" A pirate?" Ruby asked.

Beastie laughed " I was joking!"

Ruby smiled.

" Well, one of my technical associates send me your full profile, thus, I've got bad news, " Beastie said and turn on the t.v.

A flash report appeared on the screen, it was a group of familiar women in a row being stated as an official enemy of the government.

" As you can see, they were questionable, not anymore, the infamous missing Alpha team, " she said.

" Yeah, we were their successors but then being the official enemy of the state? Big bad news, "

" They work for Fish now, " Beastie declared.

A sound of discouragement filled the room.

Beastie looked at Ruby Rose.

" I think you've fought our predecessors, " she said " Actually, they taught us their actions and moves, etc., it explains a lot about our defense mechanism synchronization with them, " she added.

" Everyone in the room is dead. Did you kill our predecessors? 'Cause I haven't seen they're bodies anywhere on that hall, " Rogue said.

" I didn't. They can manipulate my sheet and didn't know how they do the process, " Ruby said.

" The process? You mean you didn't know how and why they can manipulate your tentacle-like sheets?" said Enchantress

Ruby nodded.

" And I'm so curious if it's fine with you, what is it--how--what are those tentacle-like sheets? Damn, science really, what are those?" Kristen asked.

" Those are fibers connected to her motion vessels into her brains, She's likely one of the most successful weaponry ever made, " Beastie explained.

Commotions filled the room.

" So where are these serpent-like heads right now, " Enchantress asked " Not that I'm new to these, I've seen a lot of guys like you but most of them are like unsuccessful," she added.

" Yes, " Rogue seconded.

Everyone got pretty stunned and a bit spooked when golden strands came out from the upper back of Ruby's body. She looked like an angel with wings spreading all over her.

Kristen cursed.

Ruby immediately shut it off leaving everyone in awe.

" That was great, " Beastie exclaimed.

" Show off, " Enchantress muttered.

Beastie glared at her and clapped her hands.

" It's time for a movie night!" she exclaimed.
