"This is amazing..." Alena whispers, looking up at the fireworks.
"If only everyone could be this happy every day.." Tamica whispers joyfully, walking over to her, turning to Alena, and smiling.
"Unfortunately, kid, the world sucks, and so does the majority of people in it."
"That's fair. It was nice to sneak away for this though."
"Hey, Alena, why do you think the world is so messed up anyway?"
"Any world where you have to risk your life to stand up for what you believe in isn't a proper one. That's what we're trying to change, I think. We want more people to stand up for what's right, to stop letting these monsters get away with it all."
There's an awkward, yet almost needed silence between the two. Tamica takes a second to process what Alena said before Alena speaks up again.
"Kiana is going to be so mad." Alena chuckles.
"For sure." Tamica laughs, as Alena shortly joins her.
"Hey! What are you doing out so late, there's a curfew in place, y'know!" An officer stands behind the two of them, shining his flashlight into their eyes, before gasping realizing who's standing in front of him. He reaches for his gun, but doesn't pull it out until he's sure he's seeing right,
Tamica and Alena share glances, as Alena nods, and Tamica steps forward, but Alena holds her arm out, pushing her back. Tamica almost looks hurt and glares at Alena. Alena looks at the officer for a second, but then back at Tamica. 'I have to protect you.' She mouths, as Tamica sighs, and nods.
"Let me guess, we're under arrest?" Alena smirks, pulling her bladed nunchucks from her quiver.
The officer doesn't respond. He pulls his gun out and aims it as Alena's head. Alena chuckles, before pulling back her arm, as the officer shoots. Alena is far away from her original position by now, as she runs behind the man, strangling him, and snapping his neck before he can react.
"That was some dangerous shit you pulled just now." A voice sternly says from behind them.
Tamica sweats slightly, as she's already seen who this is, but Alena is unfazed. She chuckles once again, swinging her nunchucks back into her quiver, and turning around on her heel.
"Watch your language, and besides, I worked it out didn't I, Kiana?" She turns around, winking to her leader, who simply rolls her eyes in response.
"Are you two alright?" Kiana asks, unamusedly.
"We're fine, thanks." Tamica nervously smiles, grabbing her hands to stop them from shaking.
"All good, cap." Alena smiles cheekily, saluting Kiana, who once again, simply rolls her eyes.
"We oughta' dispose of this, no?" Kiana sighs, poking the corpse with her foot.
"I got it." Tamica says, grabbing the mans arm, and throwing him down the hill, into the rocks below, as they puncture his limbs.
"Threw himself off a cliff, tragic suicide." Kiana says, exhaling.
"Alena, where's our...vehicle..?" Kiana asks, side-eyeing her.
"Right this way, ma'am." She smirks, leading the other two back to the car. She makes sure the other two get in first, before hopping into the driver's seat, grabbing her trenchcoat from the backseat, and slipping it on with a giggle.
"That's unnecessary." Theresa says, as Alena puts the car into drive and pulls off.
"You French are always so critical." Alena laughs, waving her off.

"You should never have to risk your life for your rights, but don't mistake me for someone who's ready to sit. I'll gladly fight for what I believe in."
