Re: City of Justice (Shotgungunshot/Pervy)
Meanwhile...
The Council of Five sat arguing over the new information that MA had brought to their attention. They were seated around a table, facing each other as they discussed their next strategy along with what new precautions that might be needed. "I can state with certainty that my trainee was not lying to me... She may be foolish enough to fall to a simple vampire, but she is not going to lie to us, especially now that I have reports that her mental effects were not made for her to deceive us about what she was told. I recommend that we spare no resources in stopping these multiple threats, and simply break them as they make their attempts on all of these places." There'd be silence for a few moments as they considered these statements, two of them nodding in agreement before one of them scoffed. The sound of a book closing would ring through the room, and then the sound of it hitting the table would make the same loud noise. "I honestly didn't think that you'd all be so easily taken in... I know this is important and all, but I think it's time I once again show that you have all FAILED to think any of this through... I was a few minutes away from conclusively figuring out Jack the Ripper's identity, but apparently I must enlighten you again to the mistakes being made..."
(Theme:
One of the members stood up, her own arrogance only outweighed by her paranoia, and while the Council women disliked being talked down to their smartest member got going, she was a whirlwind of brilliant deduction, analysis, and absolute biting arrogance. She paced around as she set about explaining her own ideas about all this, proving that while she may not be strong, fast, magical, or anything else, she was smart... no, smart wasn't the word to describe it, she was an absolute genius. "Well, I suppose it bears mentioning that the first thing we should do, is simply agree to pay the ransom. I have invested Society funds into major corporation stocks since the 1970s, every major modern company, we own some stock in that was bought cheap. So, if it must come down to it, we can just sell a large amount of it and pay this 'ransom'..." The rest of them seemed annoyed at that, not wanting to give the impression that they would bow to threats that they'd hopefully be able to avoid...
"And now to point out the childish oversights you've ALL made. Let me ask you... is our facility underneath Silvers Island? Of course not! So why are they threatening an attack there?" She paused dramatically, soaking in the feeling of superiority as she once again proved why she was indispensable to the Council no matter how upset she could make them when she really got going. "While all of you elected NOT to tell your departments about the facility, therefore keeping the information hidden, I decided to lie to my own division. Everyone in my branch of the Society thinks the facility is under Silvers Island. As such, not only do we know they don't have plans on attacking us there, I also now know WHERE this leak came from!" Her enemies thought the Council was complacent, and they were, but this one... this one was paranoid enough to NEVER grow too complacent, setting up decoys and detours in the chance of betrayal. "As for the breaking of villains out of prison... I have reason to doubt this claim as well. There were MANY villains to break out in that prison, and they even had the advantage of Beastmaster converting many, MANY guards. If they planned on freeing more villains then why did they not do it when they had the greatest opportunity? Because it is their second bluff. All that is needed for that threat is to stop growing complacent in our damn prison security. No more letting protocol slide for conveniences sake."
While superiority dripped from every word, the others found it rather difficult to argue with those deductions, wishing they had something to prove her wrong. "I do admit that we should investigate the bomb threat, as that can neither be proven nor disproven, meaning it is important to examine and try to prevent. So in total, I recommend we ignore the threat to our facility, only be more strict with our prisons, and investigate the bomb threat AFTER we give them the money they requested." The rest of them sat there, thinking it through until they voted in agreement with her, 3 to 2, which she merely attributed to bitterness at her own clear intellectual superiority. They were about to discuss more when an alarm went off for all of them, each one going wide eyed when they realized the grave had been broken into. "No... Dear gods no..." "Fuck... not now!" "I... How did they get past..." "Get a signal out! Every available member needs to be there NOW!" And the paranoid, intelligent woman was suddenly silent, unable to find words to describe the problem they might have on their hands soon, along with the fear that her enemies seemed to be able to at least keep up with her a little bit, going for a strategy she hadn't anticipated at all.
