Beth woke up the next day, it was a Sunday, so she just decided to have a lie in. She yawned and stretched herself over the sheets. But just as she was getting comfy...her phone wailed. "Urgh, come on..." She groaned. It was a long night last night and she really wanted this rest. Beth grunted and rolled over to her phone. It was a text from Jake.
"Out of town for a couple weeks. Dad's on a business meeting, he's taking me cause it's "good experience." I'll still have my phone with me though."
Beth found it strange. He could've just told her that last night. But maybe that was to protect their identities, that wasn't her immediate concern anyway. She replied:
"I just got captured, and the next day you're leaving? Not sure how to feel about that."
A minute passes.
Buzz.
"Only because Footgirl ambushed when you were weak. Her and Megabutt are put away, you'll handle it fine."
"And if I get into trouble?"
A minute passes.
Buzz.
"I thought about that. I put the key to my armory in your pocket last night. You'll be prepared before trouble comes."
Beth checked her Catsuit and found the key card.
"So you put the key in my pocket but didn't bother to tell me any of this?"
A minute. Buzz.
"You never know who's listening. This is secure."
"This is dumb."
"You're dumb."
Beth sighed and rolled back under the sheets. She was too lazy too respond to that. Jake was being weird, but he was right. Beth was sure she could handle whatever came her way, even without Jake's brute force and deductive reasoning. Beth fell asleep.
She awoke to breaking news. Footgirl had escaped without any witnesses or casualties, and then she broke into a private security firm before vanishing. Beth sighed and put her Catsuit on.
