Arrow: Fracture Part 3

Static Void

"So the garage just closed up like two months ago, nobody went in and nobody went out. But according to Karl, there's been a few vehicles coming and going the past few days as well as tough looking guys walking around the place all day and night." Riley intently listened as Sin went over a few more details pertaining to the sentries who were guarding the location and how their movements.

"What makes you think they're not just dealers? Happens a lot in the Glades? Could be a new drug lab?" Riley asked, gently throwing a wrench in Sin's reasoning to test her resolve.

"Not likely. My friend said the guys here were actively keeping a low profile, that and none of the dealers were aware this place was even buzzing. Besides, no dealer would be dumb enough to set up a lab that close to the Pentworth projects...not with all the domestic disturbance calls the cops get there. Kinda bad for business." Sin explained, confident in her information. Riley sat quietly as he grinned.

"And you found out all this with a sandwich?" He asked, somewhat amazed by this girl's skills.

"You'd be a amazed what a Monte Cristo can get you." Sin slyly replied. Riley smiled at her simple yet affective manner of gathering intel.

"You looking for a job?" Riley asked, almost immediately met with a simultaneous response from the front of the van.

"No." Roy and Diggle warned. Riley raised his hands and leaned away, understanding the boundaries. Sin smiled as she answered for herself.

"Not interested cutie. I prefer freelance work." Riley grinned as he joked.

"She thinks I'm cute." The others ignored his comment as the van pulled to a stop.

"Gear up, this is it." Diggle announced. The team quickly prepped for a fight, not only expecting HIVE to be present but hoping for it. Riley stashed a few extra magazines in his belt as he glanced to Diggle, knowing the man's military background would prove invaluable for such an assault.

"What's our move?" Riley asked, continuing with his gear. Diggle paused for a moment and shared a glance with Roy, somewhat taken off guard by the sudden promotion to a leadership role. He looked back to the building and ran through some of the plans his brain had already come up with when surveying the location.

"We move in quietly. Once we take out the gaurds they'll most likely be onto us...I don't see us getting out without a fight. So we use that to our advantage." Digg began, retrieving a few explosive charges from the supply bag. Riley raised an eyebrow at the sight of the explosives, somewhat unsure of Diggle's proposed approach.

"We set these inside, Roy takes out the sentries and we detonate. Then we hitem' hard and fast. It won't be clean but it should be enough to push the Victor." Digg added.

"If he's here." Roy quietly stated, though no one wanted to admit it he felt atleast someone should acknowledge the chance of failure. Diggle shrugged, each knowing they didn't have an option. They had to make a move and try to find Victor, his unknown knowledge on HIVE's device could be enough to stop their plan. Riley nodded to his partners, agreeing that this was the only option.

"Your friend mentioned a storefront entrance right?" Riley asked, looking to Sin.

"Yeah. Pretty beat up though." She answered.

"Good. That's my entry point." Riley began as he rummaged through the trash pile beside them, pulling a torn and dirty tarp up to quickly inspect. "I'll wait for your word." He ended, looking to Roy before moving off with the tarp draped over his shoulder.

"I'll take the side. On your go." Diggle stated, patting Roy on the shoulder before moving off.

"What about me?" Sin asked, not sure if she could or should be of assistance.
