"I totally agree." Asher said, leaning on the wall behind Penelope. He had a rather pissed off look on his face.

"Hey, thanks...oh," Max noticed Asher. "Its you. From before."
~~~~~~
"That's quite alright, but we don't need the waivers. We have the means to pay for power. Thank you." He shut the door quickly.

Penelope's head snapped around. "Jeez, what do you want. I already told you I was sorry. Do you want it in writing or something?"

"Th-the means...to pay for it?" Alan fell to his knees and chuckled. As seconds turned to minutes, his chuckling turned into hysteric laughter. "Ahahahaha...AHAHAHAHAHAHA! No one...NO ONE HAS THE MEANS TO PAY FOR DEPCO'S POWER!" Alan raised his hands into the air and started to gather energy. He was wearing a prototype pair of gloves given to the high ranking members of DEPCo; they were Dynasty Energy Gloves and they could siphon energy from around them and project it in large blasts. "TAKE THE CAMERAS OR DIE!" Alan yelled, jumping high into the air and sending an entire ball of white energy at the house.

Before Harrison could tell it otherwise, the perimeter defenses flared to life, and the Power Shield went up. The ball of energy was halted, and then reflected back out into the city.
"Shit." Harrison flew back to the door and slammed all five traditional bolts, and the two magnetic ones. "Follow me, Mini."
He led her back down to the lab, where he gathered a few of his inventions and stuffed them into another Power Sack, which he slung over his shoulder.
At the same time, the Power Defenses opened up a barrage of energy shots of the assailant from DEPCo.

"Bwahahahahaha! Your pathetic constructs can't defeat the might of DEPCo's superior technology!" Alan laughed uncontrollably and absorbed the energy shots with his gloves. They began to glow an eerie, no doubt unhealthy red. "Ahahahahaha! I'll break down this barrier and install the cameras myself!" Alan landed on the ground and, like he was on some sort of high caffeine diet, began rapidly punching the barrier, similarly to Kirby in SSB.

"No actually. But two things" Asher said. "One...you're under suspect of murder." He nodded at Penelope. "And you," he looked at Max "Are responsible for harrasment of DEPCo personell. In the name the the DEPCo Corprarion, I'm placing you two under arrest."

"Just try it!" It was an actual challenge. Max was wearing his Power Boots, which until now he hadn't activated.
~~~~~~
"Is that all he wants is to install cameras?"
"Dad!"
"Hm? Oh, right." Harrison flipped a secret switch on the wall. "Down here. The path led into the side of a hill, which was weird, since there were no hills in Dynasty City. They came out on the other side, where they could see the DEPCo. man pounding at the barrier.
Harrison reach into his Power Sack and pulled out his Power Rifle. He charged a shot and blasted Alan with enough energy to overload his siphon gloves.

"Ha! You fool!" Alan had turned around and outstretched his right hand, absorbing 100% of the energy. "My gloves absorb energy! I can't be stopped by your foolish - " BRING! BRING! "-Hold that thought." Alan took out his DEPBerry, a special business phone currently in development by the R&D team at DEPCo. "Yes?"
"You do realize that the gloves are prototypes, don't you?" came the ever familiar voice of Nathan through the phone.
"Well, of course, Mr. President! I was just-
"Prototype as in they were never actually tested for real combat purposes?" Nathan tapped his foot impatiently in his surveillance room where he was watching the whole scene.
"Wh-What? Y-You mean that-
"My cheerleaders would like a word with you, Alan." .
"Y-Yea, sure..."
"Soon those gloves are going to fry! Now it's time to say good-bye!" the cheerleaders giggled uncontrollably.
"Wait? What do you mean-" Alan began, but he was cut off as his gloves rattled violently. "Uh-oh..." The gloves began to pulse and Alan looked at them as if trying to say "I'm screwed."
"Oh, and Alan?" Nathan resumed speaking.
"Y-Yes, sir?"
"I've realized that I shouldn't have hired a mentally unstable person to lead my Customer Relations department. You're fired."
"No! N-No! You can't-" Alan was about to say something that could have made the situation worse, but before he did his gloves exploded, releasing a shockwave that sent him skyrocketing into some far off point. "Looks like former Vice President Alan is blasting off agaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain!"

Harrison and Mini watched with raised eyebrows. With a shrug, they trekked bath through the tunnel, disengaged the defenses, and decided to go out and try and find Max.
Things just got dangerous.

Penelope drew out her machine gun from her pant leg in a flash. She aimed it at Asher. "I don't think so!"

Asher smirked and suddenly warped behind Penelope, and grabbed the gun in one hand, and her neck in the other. "Foolish tricks won't work on me, girl. I've lived too long for that."

Penelope raised an eyebrow. "Oh really?" She swung her leg up and nailed Asher right in the face with her HEEL! while grabbing she hand around her neck and twisting his arm so that she could slip out. "Bet you weren't expecting that."

Asher winced but smirked. He held up one hand...and in it was his wire. He tugged and Penelope fell to the ground, wrapped in the razor wire. "I suggest you not move to much." He raised his other hand and snapped. THe wall next to him exploded in a wall of flames. "It might get a little hot."

Penelope scowled. "I've been watching you. You're one of Nathan's workers, aren't you? Why the hell are you working for him? He's evil! Are you an idiot!?"

Asher shrugged. "Evil? Hardly. I have seen evil, girl, in many forms. Nathan is a business man, and somewhat of a young and naiive one. Besides, I need the money." Asher grinned. Well, he thought, that was MOSTLY why he helped Nathan. Part of it was him just wanted to repay an old debt to the Veralice family...

Penelope tried to wriggle free from the wire, but she only felt them cut into her. She winced and felt something warm spred from the cuts and soak her clothes. She sighed and thought for a moment. She had one plan, but she never EVER used it unless it was an emergency. She glanced back at the fire and felt the blood soak even more into her clothes. Yep, this was an emergency.
Penelope looked up at Ethan again, but this time with a different expression. Her eyes were now wide and teary, her cheeks turning a rosy red, and her lips were quivering. She did her best to appear weak and helpless but at the same time sexy like a damsel in distress. "Oh, please, won't you let me go? I'm all alone in the world with barely any money to pay for my energy. I'm too young to die!" (Feminine persuasion powers GO!)

"You're two hundred years too late for that to work on me, sweetheart. Maybe Nathan will be a little more merciful." Asher deadpanned.

All of Penelope's fake emotions went away with the blink of an eye. "Psh, you're a waste. Why the hell don't you untie me then? I heard you say arrest not kill."
