Chapter 288: The Baby Crew Leaves
The Baby Crew.
They were supposed to enter the base of the Hope Guild completely unperturbed and with dignity. They were now also officially superheroes, they shouldn"t be affected or star struck if they see another popular hero in front of them.
But alas, that plan was completely ruined as soon as Gary squealed as soon as they entered the lobby. The women of the group could only shake their heads in disappointment; Gary was the only male member of the Baby Crew, so it made sense he would be the one in the middle; but alas, they completely forgot who Gary was.
"Oh my G.o.d, guys… We"re actually inside the Hope Guild"s secret base," Gary"s entire body trembled; and with him being muscular and over 6"6" tall, all they wanted to do was kick him for acting cute.
"H… holy s.h.i.t, is this the blade you used to defeat the War Gadget!?" Gary then quickly rushed towards the collection of blades that were plastered on the wall, "It… it"s true, all of them are blunt!"
"..." Butcher furrowed his eyebrows for a few seconds. One would think he would be annoyed… but a small smile subtly crawled on his face as he approached Gary, who was still completely freaking out,
"It is, I see you know your knives," Butcher nodded.
"O… of course," Gary took in a small gulp as he removed his mask, "If one is to know dao, then one is to know smithing."
"I see the future generation is in good hands."

"..." Not only the Baby Crew, but Empress could not help but shake her head as she saw this scene. If she wasn"t busy trying to take care of Megawoman, then she would have definitely done something to kick these… ransackers away.
But still, it might actually be quite helpful that they are here, Empress thought as she turned her eyes towards Silvie.
"You… really do look like her."
"S… sorry?" Silvie looked around if it was really her that Empress was talking to.
"Megawoman, you look like her," Empress said, "And since you"re here, can you follow me?"
"...Sorry?" Silvie once again repeated.
"And you as well, Gary," Empress raised her voice to get Gary"s attention, "Maybe Megawoman will react if she senses his son."
"!!!"
"It was real!?" Silvie quickly widened her eyes as she heard Empress"s voice. Even Katrina and Bella, who were trying their best not to geek out, almost opened up all their pores as Empress"s words reached their ears.
"Wait…" However, Katrina and Bella widened their eyes even further as what Empress said finally fully registered in their minds,
"What do you mean son?" Bella stepped forward, "Gary… is Megawoman"s s–"
And before Bella could even utter the words she wanted to utter, Gary screamed,
"Riley had s.e.x with V while they were in prison!"
"!!!"
And without even any warning, V quickly ran away; covering her face as she did so.
"L… Let"s go meet with Megawoman!" Gary then quickly rushed to grab Silvie as he urged Empress to go.
"W… wait, what did you say? Wait, I want to hear!" Silvie seemed to want to stay, but alas– it was almost as if Gary channeled all of his strength as she pulled her and Empress away. Leaving Riley, Butcher, Hannah, Tomoe, Bella, and Katrina in the lobby. Bernard already returned to the hangar as he was still finishing up something.
As for Butcher, "...It seems I might have forgotten to clean one of my blades," he whispered as he quickly slid out of the lobby.
And pretty soon, the people that were left in the lobby found their breaths getting heavier; with each exhale, visible vapor fumes from their mouths.
"Did… did it suddenly get colder?" Katrina was the first to comment as she rubbed her shoulders, causing her ma.s.sive… outfit to flutter.
"..."
"..."
"Give it here my white brother!"
And right when everyone thought silence would fill the air, Bella suddenly approached Riley with her fist stretched out, "You still killing ladies left and right, and someone from the Hope Guild? s.h.i.t… you a beast, ma– It really is getting kinda cold, ain"t it?"
Bella quickly retracted her fist as she too, started rubbing her shoulders– if she knew it was going to be this cold in the Hope Guild, then she wouldn"t have worn a tank top. Soon, however, she realized what was causing this sudden drop in temperature.
"Oh s.h.i.t!" Bella clapped her hands,
"Didn"t you have hots for Riley?" She then said as she looked at Tomoe, whose head might as well have been planted on the floor with how much she was looking down.
"Bella!" Hannah, who had been watching the whole scene unfold, could no longer take it as she pulled Bella away, "This is more serious than you think."
"..." Bella then looked back at Tomoe as she heard Hannah"s words,
"...s.h.i.t. Don"t tell me Icy is actually in love with your brother?" She whispered.
"Do you think she would react like this if she wasn"t?" Hannah whispered.
"W… well, it"s not our fault your brother is attractive as h.e.l.l. Chicks dig that mysterious aura, ya know."
The two continued to whisper; but with the lobby now freezing cold, their voices could be heard almost bouncing everywhere.
But finally, after a few more seconds of this painful, and somewhat awkward scenario, Tomoe finally spoke up.
"Is… is that true?" Tomoe said, her words, almost a whisper, and a whimper; her eyes, not even having the strength to look at Riley.
Riley, who had been keeping quiet on the side and was already helping himself with a cold gla.s.s of milk, could only tilt his head to the side as Tomoe approached him.
"What is true, Tomoe?"
"That you… you and V had… had s.e.x?"
"Yes."
"Riley!" Hannah quickly tried to cover his brother"s mouth.
"T… this ni–" As for Bella, her mouth was covered by Katrina.
"We… we probably shouldn"t b.u.t.t in?" Katrina muttered as she pulled Bella away.
As for Tomoe, she started whispering something to herself; lasting for a few seconds before she ran away to one of the hallways.
"T… Tomoe! Riley, what the h.e.l.l!?" Hannah could only groan as she rushed to chase Tomoe, "We… we don"t know the layout of this place, Tomoe!"
And with that, only Bella, Katrina, and Riley were left in the lobby.
"Life really is livelier with you around, my white brother," Bella then chuckled as she tried patting Riley"s shoulder, only for him to move away,
"Still, congrats on your release, man. Honestly, out of all of us, I thought I was the one going to prison first."
"Why? Have you committed a crime, Bella?"
"No, but I"m black."
"How is that relevant?" Riley tilted his head; but after a few more seconds he let out a short but deep sigh, "I am sorry, Bella."
"Pft, it"s not your fault."
"It might be," Riley shook his head, "Are you being a.s.sociated with Darkday because of the color of your skin?"
"Pft," Bella almost choked on her own saliva as she heard Riley"s words.
As for Katrina… she had no idea whether she could laugh or not. The only thing she could really do was to try and change the topic.
"A… anyway, what do you guys think will happen now?" Katrina whispered, "Aliens… there are actually aliens."
"What do you mean what?" Bella scoffed, "We fight back, that"s what"s up. They–"
"!!!"
And before Bella could finish her words, the entire Hope Guild trembled– and along with it, the multiple doors from the hangar started shooting violently into the lobby…
…along with Bernard.
