Summary: Brittany wants to work with Santana for the night.
Authur's Note: Again Santana is The Question and Brittany is Supergirl, If you aren't sure who they are take a look at my post
Here where i've put some pictures of both characters. The Question is a sort of detective fighting crime and all that, she has no powers, but could kick your arse. And of course Supergirl is, well, Supergirl!!
Episode 1: My Super Girlfriend ~
Episode 2: She's Still My Super Girlfriend ‘Seriously?’
‘Yeah’
‘But that’s ridiculous’
‘If you want to see how I work then you can’t use your powers’
‘But that means walking down the road in this’ Brittany said waving her arms around her body to indicate her Supergirl outfit. ‘And after that guy was mean about it the other day....’ She frowned
‘Babe, if people see us walking down the street do you really think they’re going to wait around to say anything?’
‘But my cape’ she said grabbing the edges and fluttered it about ‘Looks prettiest when it’s moving. In the wind. While I’m flying.’ She kept fluttering it and looked at Santana with a pout.
‘That is true....’ Santana said distracted by the cape.
‘And if I fly us, we can get done quicker’ Brittany said letting go of her cape and moving closer to Santana and playing with the buttons on her shirt ‘and have time for other things’ She grinned cheekily
Santana smiled back ‘That sounds good’ she leaned in to her girlfriend ‘That’s not how it works though’
Brittany’s smile dropped, so did her hands ‘What?’
‘We’re going to have to follow whatever’s delivered to where ever it‘s going, there’s no point just seeing what it is, if we can follow it to a hideout’
Brittany huffed like an annoyed teenager. Santana smiled and grabbed around her girlfriends bare waist and pulled her so they were pressed together
‘But if you’re flying us, we don’t have to leave so early, so we have time for ‘other things’ now!’
Brittany’s face lit up again and she kissed her girlfriend, picked her up and sped to the bedroom. She threw Santana on the bed. Just as Brittany jumped to land on top of her, Santana put her finger up ‘No super speed though’ she said quickly while her lips were free
___
Brittany rolled over, rested her head on her hand and smiled at the girl lying next to her.
‘What?’
‘Nothing, just looking’
Santana reached out to stroke Brittany’s cheek
‘You’re beautiful’ She said, Brittany smiled even wider and leaned her head into Santana’s hand.
Santana then realised they were actually meant to be something else
‘Damn it. What time is it?’
‘Clock says 11:34’
‘That gives us about half an hour to get ready, get rid of this bed hair‘ she reached over and trailed fingers through blond hair ‘and get to the dock’ she started to get out of bed.
‘But the delivery isn’t until 12:40, we have ages!’
‘We have to get there early so we can see all the players turn up’
‘Players?........ I don’t get it, are they...’
‘I just mean all the people involved; the buyers, the sellers, that’s all, baby, no games are being played’ Santana said walking into the bathroom
‘Oh, shame’ Brittany said absent minded. She rolled onto her back and stared up at the ceiling, slowly she floated upwards then floated down, watching the sheets bellow as she fell.
After 10 minutes Santana came back into the room, clean and hair brushed. She stopped and watched her girlfriend float up and down again.
‘How long have you been doing that?’
‘Since you went in there’ Brittany smiled
Santana laughed ‘come on you, get ready, we have to go and catch criminals’
‘Okay’ without lowering herself back to the bed she flew out from under the sheets and into the bathroom. Before Santana could get her undies and shirt on, there was a pale skin coloured blur at the end of the bed that quickly turned into a red and blue blur.
‘Ready’ she said triumphantly standing still with her hands on her hips strutting her superhero stuff ‘come on!’
Santana raised her eyebrows in a ‘don’t even tell me to hurry up miss super speed’ way and carried on getting ready.
---
‘Land us there’ Santana shouted pointing to a roof top. They landed relatively safely and went to the edge of the roof where they could see the dock.
‘Now what?’ Brittany asked looking around
‘Now we wait’
After about 20 minutes of Brittany fidgeting the first people turned up. It was the people delivering the goods. The boat was parked easily and they started unloading the goods. Ten minutes later members of the Karofsky gang showed up in their usual red tops and black jeans, all they had with them was a forklift
‘That’s strange’ Santana said looking through her night vision binoculars
‘What?’
‘Why would they only bring a forklift? They’re collecting a lot of stuff’
‘Maybe they aren’t going far’
Santana was surprised, Brittany was right.
‘It looks heavy though, B, can you see what they’re unloading?’
‘Looks like crates to me’ Brittany said looking over at Santana
‘I can see that Supergirl’ Santana said raising her binoculars and shaking them. ‘I mean inside the crates’
‘Oh!, erm...... looks like weapons and something I can’t see’
‘Weapons.....’ Santana thought out loud
She looked through her binoculars again. The Karofsky gang were running around trying to look like they weren’t as dumb and useless as they actually were. But Santana saw a woman standing by the forklift, she was the only woman there and she wasn’t running around like the others, her attitude said she was different, she was taking in the scene, watching everyone. The mystery woman was facing away from Santana and Brittany towards the boat and just as Santana started to wonder who the woman could be, she turned around. She was wearing her hair pulled back with a dark cap on, but Santana recognised her immediately.
‘What’s she doing here?’
‘What? Who?’
‘I used to work with her at the precinct, Officer Fabray, looks like she’s been promoted’
‘She’s a police officer?’ Brittany said surprised
‘Ssh!’ Santana said waving her hand at Brittany, who covered her mouth
‘She must be undercover’
As they both watched, the goods were loaded onto the forklift and moved along the dock. Brittany took Santana under the arms and flew to the next rooftop, then the next, then the next as the weapons were driven to a large warehouse along the dock, being followed by gang members and an undercover Detective Fabray.
‘There’ Santana pointed to a skylight in the roof.
They looked through it. ‘I can’t see anything, we have to get inside and see what they’re doing with those weapons’ Santana whispered and grabbed the edge of the window and pulled. It didn’t move. Brittany leant over and grabbed the same edge, gave a tug and the whole window came off in her hand. Brittany looked at Santana, who was smiling at her, and shrugged. She put the window down and held Santana around the waist and flew them both down onto the warehouse.
They landed in-between rows of large crates.
‘Okay, stay down and stay quiet’ Santana said crouching down and making her way to the end of the row, she quickly looked around the edge for any activity. Brittany stayed standing and walked behind her.
‘There’s no one round there, babe, they’re all over there’ Brittany said pointing to the far corner at the front of the warehouse. Santana gave her a quizzical look. Brittany just tapped her finger under her eye.
‘X-ray’ she whispered
Santana rolled her eyes ‘So much for no powers’
‘You keep making me use....’ Santana cut her off with ‘sshh’
She could hear voices and one of them sounded commanding. She beckoned Brittany to follow her and they made their way closer to the voices. They passed piles of discarded metal and equipment Santana recognised as welding tools. They reached a clearing where the gang was gathered. It was a large area with desks with blueprints and computers on, there was also more metal and welding equipment. In the far corner of the clearing there was a large curtain hanging from the roof, behind the curtain Santana could see scaffolding that reached about half way to the ceiling. All of the gang including Det. Fabray were crowded around someone. Santana assumed it was their boss, Big S.
‘We now have the one thing that will make our plan the envy of all’ she said holding up a box, the crowd cheered
‘What is it?’ Santana asked Brittany
‘I don’t know, I can’t see’
Big S was tall and towered over most of the Karofsky’s, her hair was short and blond and slicked back.
‘But’ She said slamming the box down on the table in front of her. ‘I’ve heard complaints about this plan and moaning about how difficult it is’ she paused and looked around the group. Then she shouted
‘You think this is hard? Try living with a metal plate in your skull because of some super-bimbo, THAT’S HARD’ The group took a collective step back.
Both Santana and Brittany frowned, ‘bimbo’ Brittany whispered to herself, thinking. Her train of thought was broken quickly by the feeling of something brushing against her leg. She looked down to see a large rat standing on her boot. Instinctively she flew off the ground
‘Rat, Rat’ she screamed as it scurried away. she looked up to see the whole of the gathering looking at her and Santana. Santana herself had covered her eyes and was shaking her head.
‘Sorry’ Brittany said quietly to her
The gang parted in the middle as Big S pushed her way through them.
‘YOU!, oh, I’m going to kill you and I’m going to make it hurt’ she shouted pointing at Supergirl. ‘Distract them’ she instructed her henchmen, then ran to the box picked it up and ran behind the curtain.
The thugs ran towards them ready to attack, and as any idiot flunky would, they attacked one at a time.
Brittany wasn’t one for messing about and took out at least five of them with one punch to the face, leaving them in a pile on the floor ‘sorry’ she cringed, she didn’t really like hurting them.
The thugs that went for Santana all looked quizzically at her and her lack of face, but that didn’t stop a large man coming at her punching. He didn’t seem to have much skill and Santana used that to her advantage. She ducked out of the way of many of his punches, on the last one he over balanced and Santana kneed him in the stomach and then the face. With him out of the way the next guy attacked, he wasn’t like the first, he stood in front of her and showed off his martial arts skills, Santana waited patiently until he decided to actually attack. He eventually ran towards her with a flying kick, she ducked out of the way, but wasn’t prepared for the kick that immediately followed it. His foot connected with the side of her face and she fell to the ground.
‘You might actually go far with moves like that’ she said to him as he stood grinning down at her
‘That’s the plan’ he said
When she was on her feet he came at her with a volley of punches, this time she was ready and got in a quick punch to the head. They exchanged moves for a while, but as the fighting continued there were loud mechanical noises coming from behind the curtain. Santana didn’t have time for this fight, she gave a quick punch and kick to the head knocking karate kid out. She turned to Brittany to see if she was okay. She stood patiently in front of a pile of at least 10 thugs and gave The Question a thumbs up.
The scaffolding behind the curtain started shaking and buckling and then fell over loudly, scattering the remaining henchmen. Something large grabbed the curtain and ripped it down revealing a crude looking 18 foot tall robot. It was covered in sheets of metal with gaps at the knee, hip and elbow joints. Big S was visible at the top controlling the machine. She was laughing rather maniacally as she moved the surprisingly nimble machine towards them.
Supergirl and The Question moved into open space as the thing came towards them, all around them the Karafsky gang were scattering at leaving, Santana saw Det. Fabray standing by the wall of the warehouse watching.
‘This is going to be outstanding’ Big S shouted
Supergirl took off and flew around the head of the robot seeing where the vulnerable parts were. She flew into the side of it, trying to make it fall over. The machine wobbled but stayed standing. The arms came up and tried to swat Brittany like a fly, she managed to fly out of the way, but then went for another push and was hit by a robot arm. Supergirl smashed through rows of crates and only came to a stop when she had gone though the brick wall of the warehouse.
‘Shit’ Santana shouted as she ran though the hole to see if Brittany was okay.
She found Supergirl pushing bricks, wood and scattered weapon off herself and standing up.
‘That things stronger than it looks’ she said to Santana brushing dust off her uniform.
‘Are you ok?’
‘Yeah, I’m fine, but I don’t think she is’ Brittany said pointing to an unconscious Fabray.
They looked around to see that Big S was still after them.
‘Quickly, get her out of the way’ Santana said, Brittany picked her up and hid her behind a large bin in the alley they were now in.
They both ran in the direction of the dock away from the bins and stood at the end of the alley waiting for Big S. She smashed through the hole Supergirl had already made and sped towards them.
‘Let’s see how tough you are now, bimbo’ she shouted. The robot grabbed at its chest and pulled open a small hatch, the inside glowed green. They both squinted to see what it was. It didn’t take long for Santana to realise exactly what it was, she grabbed Brittany’s hand and ran.
‘Come on’ she said
‘What? Why? We can take her’ Brittany said confused
‘Just come on’ Santana shouted and pulled Brittany. They made their way to the fire escape of the warehouse next to them.
‘Climb’ Santana instructed and started up the ladder
‘Babe, I’m not feeling too good’ Brittany said stopping half way up the fire escape to catch her breath.
Santana was at the top already and could see Big S at the bottom of the building.
‘I know, but you have to get up here, please, come on’ Brittany started climbing again as he giant robot punched holes in the wall to climb up after them.
As she reached the top Santana pulled Brittany over the edge of the building onto the roof
‘Come on get up’ she instructed panicked, Brittany was getting weaker and if they didn’t get further away from Big S they might not be able to get out of here.
Brittany got to her feet, Santana grabbed her around the waist and they slowly staggered across the roof
‘I don’t get it........ I can’t ..... do anything.....’ Brittany coughed and mumbled
Before they could make it to the other side of the building, Big S was at the top of the wall and running towards them. The machine raised both of its arms and slammed them down into the roof sending them both flying.
Big S moved to where Supergirl had landed, the machine stood over her as Big S laughed, the green glow from the machine brighter than ever.
‘Say goodbye’ she shouted
Supergirl looked up at her, she didn’t know what to do. Santana rushed to her feet and ran towards them.
Big S raised an arm and swatted Santana away. Brittany watched in slow motion as Santana was thrown off the side of the building. They were at least 6 stories high, a fall like that would kill her.
As Santana fell, Brittany knew she had made eye contact with her, even with that stupid face on, then she disappeared down the gap between buildings.
‘NNOOOOOOOOOOO’ Brittany shouted reaching out towards her girlfriend in vain.
