Bᴜʀɴɪɴɢ Bʀɪᴅɢᴇs
______________________________________
The three quickly made their way to the house. They didn't know what Victoria could've done to Jaime's family and didn't want to wait to find out. Angie could already feel her heart going a million miles an hour. But nothing could've prepared her for what she would see when they made it.
As Rudy brings the truck to a stop, Angie hurriedly jumps out. The house was in flames and Milagro and Rocio were surrounding Alberto. She runs over toward them with Rudy right behind her.
"Rudy. Rudy, Rudy."
Angie pulls Milagro in as Rudy rests Alberto's head in his lap. Milagro sobs into Angie's shoulder as the girl looks up.
"Apa!" Jaime groans. Tears fill Angie's eyes as she watches Jaime being taken away. His arms were restrained as Victoria sat across from him.
"Call an ambulance." Rudy says as Jenny walks over. She quickly pulls her phone out.
______________________________________
Angie was sat on the doorstep with Rocio comforting Milagro beside her. The home behind them was barely standing as smoke constantly poured out. Each of their hearts were broken at what happened hours prior. Unfortunately, Alberto didn't make it. They also had no idea where Jaime was. Angie wipes at her tears as Nana walks over.
"Vengan. ¡Vengan!" She says waving them over. All four of them walk over to meet her. "Tenemos que rescatar a Jaime. Mm? No tenemos tiempo para la tristeza y déjanos vencer. Tenemos que salvar a Jaime porque eso es lo quería su papá." As she says this, Milagro lets out another sob. She reaches over and grabs her hand while cupping her cheek.
"Milagro, Nena, Chulita. Escúchame muy bien, mijita, entiendo perfectamente como te sientes pero debemos que estar fuertes. Ya va ver un momento para llorar. Este no es ese momento. Ya pusimos las dos mejillas. Ahora es tiempo para luchar. ¿Me oyen? Para luchar!"
"Nana is right, Mili." Rocio cries, "We have to go and save Jaime."
"How? Okay, we don't even know where they took him." Milagro says
"I might know where he is." Jenny says walking over. Milagro crosses her arms as Angie's face hardens, "Please. Come with me. I can help."
______________________________________
The family made their way back to Jenny's old home. She led them to another place in the home. As they walk up, Angie notices the Blue Beetle emblem on the door. Jenny presses a button on her watch and the door opens.
They hurry to follow her. Angie a little more hesitant than the others, but she follows nonetheless. As they walk in, Angie comes to the realization that they were in an aircraft of sorts. Jenny and Rudy sit in the seats in the front, while the other three women sit in seats behind them.
"All right." Rudy says
"Let's do this." Jenny says as she takes off her jacket
"Milagro, apúrate. Let's go." Rocio says
"Okay, okay." Milagro says walking onto the aircraft, "I'm done, I'm done."
"Okay, guys." Rudy calls out, "Let's hope this Kord tech works."
Milagro sits in a seat beside Angie as Rudy presses a few buttons. A buzzer goes off as he looks up, "Hang on. Okay..."
He stands up and starts kicking at the machine. He kicks again causing Jenny to frown, "Dude!"
He kicks again and the machine comes on. Purple and blue lights flash on and off before cutting on again, "There."
"Welcome back to the Bug Ship, Teddy."
"Oh, that's sexy."
"Look at you." Rocio says as he sits
"This is sick." Milagro chuckles
"Thrusters!" Rudy exclaims as he clicks a few buttons, "Let's go get our boy."
"Let's do this." Angie breathes
"Jenny." Rudy says before she presses more buttons. Angie gasps as they jerk down. She grabs on tightly to her seatbelt.
"Okay. Good, good, good. Good." Rudy nods before turning to the four women, "¿Listos?"
"Listos." They nod. Milagro sets her hands on her legs, "So, what's the plan when we get there?"
"We'll burn that bridge when we get to it."
"That's not how you say..." Angie starts, but is cut off by her own scream as they fly forward. All of the women scream while Rudy laughs.
"Ama, I'm flying!" He exclaims, "Whoo!"

After flying for a while, Angie could feel her nerves settling in. Realistically, they had no idea what they were walking into. If they could set their house on fire and have no remorse, what would they do to them whenever they get there? Angie turns as Milagro groans beside her. Nana leans over and hands her a lemon slice.
"A ver, ándale. A ver si con esto te sientes mejor." Nana says. Milagro takes it and puts it in her mouth while Nana rubs her shoulder.
"Is this thing bulletproof?" Rocio mumbles. Nana shakes her head. "N'ombre. Vamos a necesitar algo más que esta bichola para rescatar a Jaime."
"Well, do you guys wanna see Dad's toys?" Jenny says before standing up. The four women unbuckle their seatbelts before following her to the back of the aircraft. She opens the doors and Angie's eyes widen at the amount of weapons in the closet.
"Wait, is that Kabloom bubble gum?" Milagro says stepping closer
"Oh, no, no. That's not what you think it is." Jenny says quickly, "It's just a special prototype my dad was designing for me when I was little."
Angie picks up a glove, "Do these things work?"
"Mm... some of them." Jenny says putting something over her shoulder, "Sometimes."
Angie presses a button on the glove and steps back at a shield coming out, "Whoa."
"Oh, that's the Bug Shield." Jenny says, "Try pressing another button."
Angie presses another button and a fist comes out. She hears Milagro chuckle beside her before the glove is snatched from her hand, "Wha-"
Milagro slips the glove on and flexes her fingers, "Yeah, you know what? I think I'm keeping this one."
Angie looks at her in annoyance, but Milagro just smiles at her. Angie rolls her eyes before looking around for something else, "Okay, so, how are we supposed to learn how to use these things?"
The three girls turn as they hear a weapon powering up. They're met with Nana holding up a huge gun.
"Nana?" Milagro says, "Hey. How do you know how to hold that so perfectly?"
Nana takes out her hairpin letting her braids fall to her shoulders, "Hay muchas cosas que tú no sabes de tu Nana."
Angie chuckles as Nana winks at them. After grabbing another random weapon, one that wasn't nearly as good as the first she picked, Jenny led them over to a table to try and come up with a plan to save Jaime.
She zooms in on the map, "This is where they took Jaime. Pago is a Caribbean island off the coast of Cuba that Kord bought from Batista in the 50s."
"The place is a fortress." Milagro shakes her head, "Okay, how the hell are we gonna get in there?"
"Ya, yo tomé para salto fortaleza como esta." Nana points
Angie and Milagro's eyes widen, "What the hell?"
"Mili, one day, we gonna have to talk about Nana's revolutionary past." Rocio says
"Her what?" Milagro says turning to Angie. The girl just shrugs.
"A ver, a ver. Déjame ver ese pozo en el centro." Nana points. Jenny quickly zooms in, "¡Esa es nuestra entrada! ¡Esa es nuestra entrada! Nosotros vamos a hacer varias distractivas mientras Mili, Jenny, y Angie bajan ahí y van directamente al complejo."
"Yeah, the generators are here." Jenny points
"Mm."
"We could blow them up and knock power out." Jenny nods. Nana points to her in agreement and laughs.
"¡Muy bien! Después de eso, se van directamente donde está Jaime. Rocio, Rudy, y yo vamos hacer el getaway. ¿Alguna pregunta?" Nana says looking around, "Hm?"
"Damn, Nana." Milagro smirks. Angie smiles as she looks around at everyone.
