Celina and Carmen were walking in the woods, Carmen's arm wrapped around her waist. "Trenderman's making designs for the wedding dress I'm going to wear and he wants to know if you were prefer a suit or a dress." Said Celina as Carmen was thinking. "Definitely a suit. I don't trust myself to accidentally break my ankle in heels." Both of the women started laughing. Celina looked up and tugged on her thief's sleeve, pointing at a certain scientist. "Dr. Bellum." She placed Celina behind her and prepared to fight.
Robots appeared as Carmen wasn't allowing any of them to touch Celina. "Get her, boys!" Said Bellum as a laser started charging up from one of the robots. Celina's pretty green eyes widened before she pushed Carmen away as she got zapped instead of her, screams being torn from her lips. "CELINA!!" Screamed Carmen as her fiancée landed on the ground, covered in laser burns and slowly turning unconscious. "Celina, hang on.. I'll get you to.. NO, OPEN YOUR EYES! OPEN THEM NOW!" Carmen shrieked as Celina fell unconscious. Pure unbridled rage seized her, seeing the love of her life unconscious.
Something inside of her snapped. Carmen took off her gloves she wore, placing them in her pocket. "You zapped my love, Bellum." Carmen then took out her own version of the Crackle Rod which was red with accents of gold as the dial was in the shape of a lily. "It's fingerprint activated, Sandiego. It won't work for you." Said Saira as Carmen smirked. "Won't it?" She then activated it as it was a gift from her future sister-in-law, Belle. "Being the fiancée of enchantress's eldest daughter, Celina Juliet October, has it's perks~"
She turned the lily dial and pointed it at Saira, looking at her with raging glowing green eyes and a psychopathic smile. "You can break my soul, take my life away, beat me, hurt me, kill me, but for the love of god, don't touch her." Said Carmen as she gestured her head towards her Juliet. Then, she fired the rod, making Saira unconscious. She sent an anonymous tip for A.C.M.E., placed the rod back into her coat, and carried her petal back to the mansion. The rest of V.I.L.E were shocked, seeing Carmen like that towards Saira.
"Ok, notes to ourselves, NEVER make Carmen angry by hurting or attacking Celina in any shape or form, otherwise we will suffer the same fate as Saira." Said Maelstrom as The rest of the facility agreed. Once Carmen placed Celina in a hospital wing room, she decided to get her some flowers from a meadow she saw before they both got ambushed. She knew that red lilies were her favorite so she managed to find them with ease. When she got back, she hid the flowers behind her back. She heard a soft groan and looked towards Celina.
"Hey Princesa (translation: Princess). You ok?" Asked Carmen as Celina straightened her back. "Yeah.. but.. what happened after?" Asked Celina as Carmen smiled.
"You went unconscious."
"Oh.. also.. what's behind your back?" She asked as Carmen smiled, presenting the lilies. "For my lily petal." Celina accepted the flowers as she giggled. "Lily petal? You once called me that in front of gray and everyone else in Coach's class." She said, the red petals of the flowers making her white hospital dress even more fragile.
(Flashback!)
14 year old Celina and 15 year old Black sheep were listening to Coach Brunt, secretly holding hands. Everyone at V.I.L.E academy didn't know of Black sheep's crush on Lily back then and they were fine with that. Lily giggled slightly at black sheep being called 'Lambkins', finding the nickname very cute. Black sheep was embarrassed until Gray spoke up. "Lambkins? Who knew V.I.L.E had a mascot?" He said as he started laughing. Lily was about to open her mouth to scold him, but Black sheep scowled and grabbed him, bending him upside down to face her.
"Only my friends call me 'Lambkins'. My code name's BLACK SHEEP. Do you understand? Nod if you understand." Gray nodded his head. "And another thing. Do you see the redhead with the gorgeous jade green eyes? THAT is my lily petal and the one I want to be with for the rest of my life." Everyone gasped as Lily blushed. "Black sheep.. I like you too." Black sheep let go of gray to face Lily. "You.. do?" Lily nodded her head. "Yes. I was scared to tell you since I'm enchantress's eldest daughter. I.. I felt as if I knew you for so long." She said, her cheeks matching her hair.
Black sheep held the girl's hands and smiled. "The feelings are mutual, petal." The two hugged as Belle squealed. "SHEENA, YOU OWE ME 50 DOLLARS NOW!" She said. "You two made a bet?!" Asked Lily as Belle giggled. "Yep~! I betted on 50 dollars that Black sheep told you how she felt while Sheena here betted on 70 dollars if You told black sheep how you felt." Said Belle as Lily frowned slightly.
(End of flashback!)
"That was when my head noticed an Angel with long red hair, eyes of jade and a cute laugh like bells." Said Carmen as Celina smiled. "I figured as much." She replied. "I'm still mad at Belle for making a bet like that back then." She added. "At least I knew that you loved me." Carmen said, running her ungloved hand through Celina's red hair. "I was so worried, Celina.. when You took that hit for me, I was sure you were dead.." Celina's green eyes met Carmen's blue-gray ones. "Carmen.." Celina grabbed her hand and gently squeezed it.
"It's not your fault. I know for a fact you would have done the same thing to protect me." She said, drawing shapes in her hand with her thumb. "Your right, Celina." Replied Carmen as her gaze settled on the pendant she gave Celina after V.I.L.E was disbanded. So far, Carmen got 2 members and she needed to get the rest to place them behind bars to protect Celina, her angel, her flower and her Fiancée. When Bellum blasted her, Carmen snapped seeing her unconscious and her desire to protect Celina stepped in, causing an different part of her to bloom.
