Night of Ice and Fire
The day of the heist saw me driving back to Dollyâs lab alone. I told Glacia yesterday to rest up, but I knew she wouldnât. Everyone got excited at their first taste of true villainy. It was like plotting a murder crossed with Christmas Morning. And if you were the Holiday Bomber, it was even more so.
And I had to admit, the excitement was a bit infectious. As I parked my Civic and got out, it was with a bubbling anticipation. I headed straight through the old factory to where Dollyâs lab was and hit the elevator button.
The eye winked open and Dollyâs chirpy voice came clear through. âVictor!â she cried. âThere you are. Come on in!â
I rode the elevator down, and no sooner had the doors opened than Dolly had flung herself around my waist, hugging my tightly. I endured it. Iâm not terribly touchy-feely, comes with the territory of people either wanting to kill you or beat the hell out of you, but Dolly insisted on these sorts of things whenever I came by, and I was willing to tolerate it today. Because it was going to be a very big day.
âMmmm. Nice muscle tone. You been working out?â Dolly said as she gave me a squeeze, nuzzling my chest.
âYou know I do,â I said with mock exasperation.
âSure I do! But I love to hear it. Can I come watch you some time? I loooove to see the human body in action.â
She gave me a wink that implied a great number of things. But I was in a rush today. Besides, I didnât want to give Dolly too much. You had to be careful with mad scientists. One minute youâre giving them the ride of their life, the next youâre strapped to an operating table as their new test subject. And again, I didnât date inside the industry. Too much baggage, and Dolly likely didnât just have skeletons in her closet, but a whole damn graveyard.
âI really just came by to pick up the suits,â I told her.
âSure! Sure. Of course you did. And visiting this pretty sheep was just a bonus, right? Ha! Of course Iâm right.â
âDo you have the suits?â I asked.
âPlease! Of course I do!â she said with an errant motion. Mechanical arms whirred around the room, one dipping low, depositing a suitcase of gleaming metal into Dollyâs hand. She planted it on a table and popped it open, showing me a number of neatly folded bundles of clothing.
I picked out one and lifted it up, examining it. Not bad. Not bad. It had the look of a heavy winter parka, all blue with white trim. Fur collar and a pair of winter goggles, along with an appropriately anonymous ski mask.
âAnd the sticks conveniently extend,â Dolly said.
I took one of the rods out and pressed a button on the handle. With a snapping sound it extended, the blade of a hockey stick jutting out from the peak. I gave it a practice swing and it made an appropriate swishing sound in the air.
