“Well that was a shambles,” Tarne said as she tore her eye-mask free and deposited it angrily upon the floor of the manor. “Gunman? We had trouble taking Gunman?”

“We didn’t have any trouble taking him,” Seraphim said, concentrating hard so her body slowly began to change colour and the wings retracted into her now-human form.

“I noticed, Sara,” Tarne said. “Being Far-Seer, I suppose I should have foreseen you hacking everyone to pieces.”

“There are some people who simply crave judgement, Heather,” Sara Kiel said simply. “If you cannot see that, then perhaps you are in the wrong business.”

“They were a vanguard for the Vicious Circle,” Sparky said, changing into his ordinary clothes. “We really should do something about their boss, you know,”

“Where’s Darkthorne?” Tarne asked angrily, too emotional to be able to talk of the future she should have already seen.

“Probably dry-cleaning his suit, after getting exploded upon,” Sparky said.

“And that idiot is the cause of all our problems,” Tarne said savagely.

“And all our money,” Kiel pointed out. It was true. The four of them comprised what the media termed the Darkthorne Legion, although it had been Darkthorne himself who had coined the name. Darkthorne came from rich parents, who had been murdered before his eyes. The manor was the perfect place from which to operate, for it was both secluded and large, and no one had any idea as to their true identities, despite Jagrad Darkthorne, aka Dark Thorne, being a complete moron.

“I swear that man shall be the death of me one day,” Tarne said, holding her temple with thumb and forefinger, feeling a headache building.

“Well you should know,” Kiel said.

“That’s what worries me.”

“I’m gonna hit the shower,” Sparky said.

“Be careful,” Tarne said. “Remember what happened last time. Water and electricity just don’t mix, Sparky.”

“Oh, they mix; I think that’s the problem. Ciao.”

“Sometimes I worry about the men in our team,” Kiel said.

“Just the men?” Tarne asked. “You know, I often think I’m the only sane one here.”

“If my brother was not killed before my eyes, I would not even be in this team fighting to avenge him.”

“And if my two sisters weren’t murdered because I failed to act, I wouldn’t be here likewise.” Tarne paused. “Do you know what’s keeping Sparky here?”

“He witnessed a truly horrific hit-and-run incident against a fox and vows to one day bring the unnamed villain to justice.”

“And you don’t find that strange at all?”

“I find life strange, Heather. But then I am above life, since I was born beyond the Pearly Gates.”

“You know you’re not really an Angel, Sara.”

“No, but I was once bitten by a radioactive seraphim and acquired his extraordinary powers.”

“I really don’t want to know what the two of you were doing when he bit you.”

Heather Tarne had never believed the origins her colleagues supposedly held, although they were entitled to their own individual insanities. Supposedly, Sparky was struck by lightning whilst holding a radioactive goldfish he was in the process of returning to the pet shop (since it was
