Hello Enigma

Chapter 19 The Baker vs The Enigma

Macy: "What was that...thing?"

Quentin: "It was the Guest. Looks like he's heading to the park to cause some problems. I hope everyone at the park will be ok."

Jodi: "I sure could going for some cake your aunt made after that."

Macy turns her attention to her friend and gives her a stern look.

Macy: "No. We have to save some for the school."

The girl grew angry at being denied her favorite food. This wasn't the answer she was hoping to hear.

Jodi: "Ah come on."

Macy: "Besides, my aunt may have some leftovers for us. Though I do hope she isn't too mad when she realizes that we are out late."

At the bakery, we see Gerda closing up the shop and getting things sorted out. As she checks the clock and lets out a sigh. Her niece was suppose to return sometime and she was still out with her friend.

Gerda: "I really gotta have a talk with my niece about a curfew."

When Gerda goes outside to throw out some trash, there was the sound of someone entering her bakery.

Gerda: "*Grunt* Quentin, if that's you, I wont hesitate to knock you upside the head with my skillet and throw you out."

A frustrated Gerda checks around the area when the lights start flicking. Turns out the explosion from the Golden Apple Factory messed up Raven Brooks power station, causing the town's power to go on the fritz.

Gerda: "What happening?"

Suddenly there was a blackout at the restaurant and it was all pitch black. This makes Gerda very nervous and the fact that there was an intruder in her restaurant made her more nervous. As Gerda walks around her home she listens out for any signs of an intruder. 

Gerda: "Quentin, if you had anything to do with this I'll do something I wont regret."

The lights slowly start to spark up a but some of the light bulbs begin to burst into pieces. When Gerda looks for some matches to light up a candle, we see a silhouette of a person wearing a cloak and a mask walking right behind Gerda and it also looked like he was holding a wrench. As Gerda bends down to search the drawers we suddenly hear a loud metal thud made by the Enigma whacking the baker surreptitiously. We see the Enigma looking down at his defeated victim, making sure she was unconscious and searching the place. But as he was beginning his search, Gerda slowly wakes up and sees the man roaming the kitchen. It was all dark from the power failure, that she couldn't recognize him. However she was able to see his silhouette of a masked man and began charging towards him. She wasn't going to give up that easily.

Enigma (aggressive tone): "Hold still!"

When Gerda hears this voice, she now knows that this wasn't Quentin or anyone who she knows. This was an unknown person breaking into her place of business. She needed to do what she can to get ride of him. In her mind she was grateful that her niece and her friend wasn't here, otherwise things wouldn't end well for either of them. When she sees the Enigma searching the drawers, she pounces on him and slammed his body on the counter, but because this person was wearing a mask, that only jolted him a bit. This attack only enraged the cloaked man and he attacks the baker and pushes the baker away from him and throws furniture all over the place. This angers the woman even more and she charges toward the man and slammed him body down the wall. There was heavy breath from both parts, but no side was willing to give up. Some the two carry the fight upstairs and in Gerda's bedroom and proceed to pin each other to the floor. Finally having enough of this nonsense, the Enigma lifts up the baker with all his might jumps up to the ceiling with her and crash lands on the floor, sending Gerda into a world of soreness. At the park the fire was slowly being put under control, but that didn't mean some of the people would encounter some problems.
