Villain smirked as she raised prepared to jump off the roof right into the alley Hero had decided to run into. It was a dead end after all, Hero was going nowhere.
All of a sudden someone grabbled her arm and she tumbled to the floor due to the momentum. She prepared to brace her fall but realized it was unnecessary as she had landed on – she looked down in equal parts of surprise and annoyance to see who had stopped her from going after Hero and had yet been gracious enough to brace her from the fall he had caused. Supervillain. She got up in a huff and ran to the edge of the roof only to see Hero running off far out of reach by now no doubt having taken advantage of the fact. She sighed. It would have to be done another day now.
She turned around to face Supervillain arms on her hips ready to berate him.
He smiled as he stood up and reached out his hand. “Nice to meet you I’m Supervillain.”
Villain stared as she did the same out of courtesy while she smiled. They knew who the other was except they hadn’t met each other formally. Well, it wasn’t all bad. Supervillain was incredibly handsome after all. She could find Hero another day.
Before she could say another word Supervillain crossed his arms as he stood and with a mischievous smile said, “Hey why don’t you return what you stole from me Villain?”
Villain stared at him in bewilderment , “I literally just met you what are you talking about?”
“My heart Villain, you stole it.”
Villain smirked as she felt her heart flutter slightly, well two could play at that game. “Now, why ever would I do that? I’m a villain darling, I don’t return things I steal.
Luckily for you, every story needs a villain. So let me be in yours.”
Supervillain smiled as his heart pounded in his chest, his ears beginning to feel hot, “Well I’m one too you know?”
Villain laughed as she spoke, her eyes shining, “Well then our story is going to be extra special.”
“We both fell for each other a moment ago didn’t we?”
They both burst into laughter at the pun as they both looked at the setting sun with a slowly growing warmth in their hearts.
Villain smiled at him with a gleam in her eyes. “I won’t be returning your heart you know but I will have something here for you tomorrow. Right here, same time.”
With that she was off. Running over the roofs no doubt back to her home.
Supervillain smiled as he watched her fade into the distance and thought to himself. Tomorrow is going to be a lovely day.
The next day Villain showed up with an enormous bouquet of flowers. So did Supervillain. Both looked at each other and laughed. “Great minds think alike.”
“Guess we both raided flower shops. Lets see which one of us is better at crime shall we Supervillain?”
“Challenge accepted.”
Villain waked over to him as she placed her bouquet in his hand and took the one meant for her.
He looked into her eyes, “I love the shade of the flowers but do you know what’s even prettier? The shade of your eyes,” he said as he tucked back a strand of her hair. He moved his finger to trail around her mask, “I can tell you are absolutely beautiful even though you have a mask on. Somehow it makes you look even more mysterious and stunning.”
Villain smiled at him and with her heart madly beating inside her chest as she felt the blood rush to her face thankfully the mask covered her cheeks she winked at him, “You know what? We’re even about the hearts because it looks like you’ve stolen mine too.”
With that she hastily made an exit along with her flowers.
Supervillain grinned as he watched her leap off the roof and land gracefully as she walked off hugging the flowers tightly.
Hero happened to come across them one day after finally figuring out that two villains had decided to raid the flower shops. That was definitely a different crime. She now found out why.
She decided that the best plan of action would be to make them go on a date so maybe they would fall in love and not commit crimes? Hero clearly had doubts about this plan but decided to try anyway. She wrote down a message on a piece of paper and folded it into an airplane and threw it at the two villains from her secret hiding spot.
Supervillain and Villain were in the middle of seeing who had managed to steal the better chocolate for the other when the plane flew out of nowhere and landed at their feet.
They picked it up.
Its almost time for dinner why don’t you guys go eat at a cool restaurant?
They both stared at the paper and started laughing. “Its obviously a trap why would we fall for that now?”
“Besides I’m not even hungry,” Villain grinned. “Guess we’ve got company here but we’ll have to disappoint them because I’m going back home now.”
The next day Hero called Sidekick to come help her. Together they set up a picnic up on the roof with candles and flowers and a cake which was shaped like a heart.
“Hero, what makes you think this is a good idea? Clearly you have no clue how to be a wingman do you?” Sidekick sighed as she lit the candles, “and neither do I so it’ll be a miracle if we pull this off.”
Hero shushed her, “Nobody can resist cake,” she said as she pulled her onto another roof where they could hide and watch.
The two villains arrived as usual and stared as they took in the sight. They looked around suspiciously.
“Looks like someone knows where we are everyday.”
“Guess we have to meet somewhere else now.”
Supervillain hummed thoughtfully as he looked at the cake. Heart shaped. I have an idea now.
After they both left Hero and sidekick gloomily came out of their hiding spots and sat down to eat the cake while thinking of a new plan.
From that day onwards the crimes increased in the city. It started off with simple ones like thefts of flowers and chocolates and much more but slowly they started getting more dangerous when suddenly a whole bunch of people had gone missing.
Hero and Sidekick finally managed to track down the villains new meeting spot.
“Well, I thought the heart made of corpses was very touching. I do love the colour red you know,” Villain said with a dark smile, “To thank you I’ll get you a real heart next time. Or would you like to cut it out together? I already have a person in mind,” she said with a sinister smile. “I haven’t seen Hero lately; I suppose we can hunt her down together.”
Meanwhile in their hiding spot Hero and Sidekick stared at each other with mouths agape in horror and shock.
They had killed people just to make a heart shape? They were planning to cut out Hero’s heart next?
Hero and Sidekick realized that they had to work out a plan that got them to finally date like normal people instead of… whatever it is they were doing.
What they didn’t take into account was that when two villains fall in love, the story gets a lot more exciting and dangerous.
The Sidekick
