On one hand, Aquarius,Gemini and Libra should have been more careful. On the other hand,how were they supposed to know? Along with the fact that they were relatively new as compared to the others. Less experienced. They lacked that cunning of Leo and Scorpio,nor did they have the resourcefulness of Sagittarius and Pisces,nor the reflexes of Cancer and Aries. All in all,they were not weak but as is said,"Practice makes perfect." That was completely applicable for their case.

Aquarius thought that she felt someone behind her and turned to find absolutely no one. She frowned but kept on walking,never noticing the man stalking them. Gemini however stopped short and turned back.

"Gemini,what happened?" Libra asked, frowning.

Gemini looked at her, licking her lips,"I believe that we are being followed,Libra."

"What?" Aquarius whirled back, startled. There were many people behind them that could be their potential follower.

"Who?" Aquarius asked Gemini and got a blank look from said person.

"If I knew who it was, wouldn't I have told you,Aqua?" She fired back, looking agitated.

Gemini was a film star so she was always paranoid of stalkers. Even after changing her appearance she was still afraid of the media following her. Not that she disliked attention but it felt nice once in a while to just sit back and relax,away from the prying eyes of the world. Aquarius was famous as well so she was a bit afraid too,more after hearing all the problems that comes with being famous from Gemini.

"Gem, wouldn't it be wiser to not stare and just go?" Libra said in a slow but slightly annoyed voice.

Gemini seemed to jerk back to reality and nodded vigorously. Aquarius looked a bit worried at the look in her purple eyes but there wasn't anything that she could do about that.

They turned around, pretending that they hadn't seen a thing and started walking out of the hotel. But luck wouldn't be with them for much longer.

Aquarius bumped into a man by accident.

"Sorry." She said and was gonna leave when the man said,"Hey aren't you the author of NightHawk?"

Aquarius exchanged a look with Gemini and that one second was enough to convince the man of the fact that his assumption was correct. (Well it was but he wasn't supposed to know that).

His eyes widened and he said,"I am a huge fan of your book. Is there gonna be a sequel? Can you give me your autograph. Oh my God,my girlfriend won't believe that I met you." He sounded like an excited 5-year old.

Aquarius looked a bit shocked and stood still for a moment trying to get the fact that she had gotten recognised.

"Ehm,"She looked at Gemini for advice who gave a minute nod.

She swallowed at looked at the man.

"Ehm,why not."

The man grinned and took out his notebook.

Libra saw felt that something was wrong with this entire thing. She looked at the man,who had a black overcoat on, despite the sunny weather outside. His eyes were covered with sunglasses. He was tall and well built. But what caught her attention was the thin scar on his forehead. It looked deliberate and ran vertically down until the eyebrows.

"So,eh,With love, what's your name again?"

Libra's eyes widened as the man grabbed Aquarius's hands and the pen fell down. People were milling around them, whispering and muttering.

Libra kicked the man but got held by another one that suddenly came from behind her. Another man took out a gun and pointed it at Gemini.

"Submit or else we would be forced to do something that you would not enjoy." He commanded.

Libra and Aquarius struggled against their respective captors.

Aquarius's eyes glowed a light blue as the man holding her choked. She pushed him back and broke free,the man struggling to breathe. Libra elbowed the man holding her,broke free and twisted his arm behind him.

He snarled in anger but couldn't break her grip.

The man holding the gun shouted.

"STOP, DON'T MOVE, DON'T BREATHE, DON'T SPEAK!! AND NO ONE IS TO DO ANYTHING ELSE. OTHERWISE YOU ALL ARE DEAD DUCKS!!",

And raised his gun for emphasis. Whatever threat the statement carried was taken away by the Sherlock reference.

Gemini rolled her eyes and shapeshifted into a small black dog, blending in with the tiles. As expected confusion broke out. The man was paying more attention to the other two and didn't notice the subtle shapeshifting and therefore as a result started shouting,

"WHERE IS THE OTHER ONE? THAT OTHER GIRL??? WHERE IS SHE?"

They were really,really dumb.

Gemini changed into a housefly and flew up to observe the man properly. Libra who had noticed this,bit her lip so as to not start laughing.

Aquarius raised an eyebrow and said,her eyes still glowing,

"If you don't want to suffer your colleagues fate,"she said pointing to the gradually-turning-blue-man,"You should rather put that gun down."

The crowd was shook as expected and everyone was whispering about how the NightHawk author was so powerful and how her eyes made a man choke. Everyone was awed and scared at the same time.

"How did she do it?"

"No idea,Peter."

"Where do you reckon the other girl went to?"

Gemini swore in her mind as she spotted a chip on the man's neck. It was one she realized not only for controlling his actions but also to kill him if he failed. Her eyes widened as she realized what was about to happen.

She flew behind Libra and shifted into her actual form,causing gasps of how the NightHawk star was also present.

"Is there a Con going on here?"

"There is always a Con going on somewhere."

The public now really thought that it was a movie shooting, apparently.

Gemini whispered what she had realised into Libra's ears.

Her looked at Gemini and whispered something back. The public were too busy taking pictures.

Libra looked at Aquarius whose eyes had stopped glowing and her man had passed out on the ground. She hit her one on the head and he passed out too. Gemini licked her lips nervously as she bent down to check his neck.

Aquarius turned to the gunman who looked slightly nervous now.

"What do you want? We pose no danger to anyone and have no quarrel with you or anyone else. Why would you attack us?"

The man looked straight at her,

"Because I was ordered to."

Aquarius looked incredulous,"And just because of that you will try to kidnap random people?"

The man's voice descended to an almost robotic quality.

"Yes."

"Are you mad?"

"Possibly."

"Who is your master?" Aquarius looked at him. She couldn't discern his eyes Because they were covered by shades.

The man opened his mouth,"None of your business."

"I would like to disagree. Because he tried to get you to kidnap us."

He sounded almost dead when he said,"My master wants you."

"Well let me say that I couldn't aquiscence with his request."

The man looked at her and took off his shades as the everyone gasped.

There were no eyes in his sockets. They were empty,like his voice. A small chip,which looked like a camera was fixed in them.

Aquarius took a step back in shock,"How do—"

"DUCK!!!"

Gemini yelled at the top of her lungs.

The man's head hung as if snapped and the bomb in his neck exploded. It was small enough to not cause much harm but big enough to destroy his body.

But blood did not fall on them. Only dry scraps of skin and what looked like they had been organs before.

The same happened with the other two and the people screamed. The guards came running and so did some police.

There was total confusion. People were screaming,some had fainted.

Aquarius put a hand to her heart.

"What just happened?"

"WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT AQUARIUS,RUN!!!!"

Gemini yelled as Libra pulled Aquarius out of the mess in the middle. She seemed to snap back to her senses and began running with them.
