Ch 3 Pike and Sphyrna

Pike stared at the three men infront of him all clad in the same attire, black suits with black pants black gloves and black shirts with the only colour coming from thier red ties and white facemasks, even the guns they had trained on him were a metalic black.

He mused that he was not to colourfull himself either, his whole costume a bland gray with a few black accents, atleast his mask looked better. His mask was made in the image of a fish, silver and dark blue scales with two giant yellow orbs for lenses, the fish´s mouth sewn shut with five big stiches made of thick bright rope. It also had a lot of special stuff in it but the only thing Pike cared about was the mic and recivier, and most importantly that it was comfy.

The three cronies seemed to be shivering abit, Pike quikly deduced that it was pobably not the temprature but rather the fact that the floor of the warehouse they were in was littered in the corpses of thier comrades and the crimson fluid seeping out of them.

It also might have been the fact that he had a literall vortex of ghostly pale fish swimming around him. Not even the fish were verry colourfull, the salmon, trout, perch, tigerfish and even the few piranhas he had orbiting him were all in difftrent hues of gray, white and black. The only "fish" with a bit of colour was the gigantic Pike he had named himself after, it´s pitchblack scales had several splotches of red on them and even the eyes seemed a dark tinted scarlet.

As the left most man of the three henchmen fired his black gun Pike easly danced away, doing a little piruette out of the way, one of the white salmons darted out of the vortex. Like a heat-seeking missile the fish went straight for the man who fired, phasing through his pistol and quikly bit of two of his fingers.

With both the mans fingers, blood and gun in the air the snow white salmon went to tear his throat out. The middle man was in the same situation with half a dozen gray and black piranhas trying to bore their way into his airpipe while the rightmost man had his head cleanly bit off by the massive pike.

As the blood from the suit clad men dyed even more of the warehouse the colour of dark wine Pike effectionaly thanked his little guardians for thier hard work and started making his way over to were his partner was. Sphyrna was currently occupied with "taking care off" the leader of these suits, a super with some kind off body strengthening power if Pike could remember correctly. He had not really bothered with it since Sphyrna hade said "That guy sounds like he could take some hits, let me fight him!!!".

Pike practicly skiped his way over to her through the fairly rhytmic sound of Sphyrna´s heavy sledgehammer hitting the laying mans chest. Sphyrna´s costume was prettymuch the same as Pike´s, the same skintight gray and black protective mesh displaying her over 2meter tall muscled body. Her mask looking like a mexican luchadore shark but were his had been sewed shut her mouth was fitted with big metal teeth, allowing her to bite her enemies, witch she did quite often.

*Thud*

Another heavy blow too the mans reinforced chest, pushing out what little air he had left in his lungs with slight whine, made the great red mane that was her hair whip all around the place. Sphyrna´s long red hair was done in such a way it looked like two dozen long braids with big fishhooks at the ends reaching down to her tailbone. She raised her arms for another swing and-

*The horrible sound of a sledgehammer breaking a man´s ribbcage and making him expell his own intestines and blood through various orifices*

"*Pheehew* Job well done huh Pike?" she said flashing him a big smile, he gave her a quick nod in return as she started walking towards the entrance of the warehouse.

"Mission complete Shrimp, can you send in the goons to clean the place and get us a ride?" Sphyrna asked the night and Pike could hear the slightly annoyed voice of Omar in his comunicator saying he´s "on it".

By the time the two supervillians hade made it to the waterline thier "ride" had arrived. A dark metallic mini-submarine looking like a hybrid between a shrimp and a crab, Pike always thought Shrimp´s inventions looked cute but the mini-sub was one of his favourites. Pike had to "disspel" his fish when he got in the sub but he could still feel them around him even if others could not.

As Luca and Emma entered the commonroom of the underground base they got a hearty "welcome back" from Sevin and finnaly saw the new recruit that Shrimp had told them about during the ride back, sitting at one of the tables with Sevin, several cans of tomato soup to the side and face half stuffed with a princess pastry. She was slightly taller than Luca with long blonde hair cute freckles and green eyes staring at him and Emma wearly, no doubt the looked quite strange. An over 2meter tall bodybuilder and a 1,5m short 17 year old boy. Emma´s beautifull red hair and shining blue eyes atleast look normal unlike him.

There was nothing strange with Luca´s chocholate coloured skin howerver his short curly hair, teeth, nails and even the whites of his eyes were all unnaturally gray. He used to be scared of it but Sevin had assured him that there was nothing wrong, just some strange sideeffect of his power.

Luca quikly made his way over to Sevin and jumped in to his lap, Sevin´s arms seemingly atoumaticlly closed around him , a cheeky grin plastered to his face. Emma also made her way over to them, a mischivous glint in her eyes, as she arrived she took Sevins head in her hands and bent him backwards quikly locking their lips together while forcing her tounge deep inside his mouth. After a few moments she ended the kiss and looked at the "new recruit" that by this time was looking with mouth agape and eyes wide open, also having dropped her pastry on the table, and simply said:

"`Sup new girl, welcome to Desire!"
