Frank's POV




Gerard and I awoke the following morning to the sound of my cellphone ringing. Gerard groaned and tried to bury his head into my neck, while I stretched my arm and retrieved my phone.

"Hello?" I answered groggily.

"Hello Mr. Skeleton. It's the city Mayor here. Listen. Before you say anything, I would like to apologize for my lack of interest in helping you and The Dark Ninja in your attempts to capture Dr. Krustallos and The Executioner. I've called in a few favors off people who owed me and I've managed to secure you and The Dark Ninja an hour on the police database this afternoon, if you're interested. The only conditions are that I must be present as must the Police Sergeant and two security guards to ensure that you don't access anything you shouldn't," the Mayor's voice sounded.

"Uh, let me just talk about this with The Dark Ninja," I told him. Gerard's head popped up and he gazed at me expectantly, waiting to hear what I had to say.

"What is it?" he asked.

"It's the Mayor. I think he really wants us back. He's managed to get us an hour on the police system this afternoon. And since Hot Girl and I are no longer on speaking terms, I think we should take up his offer. I'm missing being a superhero every day anyways," I told him. I wasn't sure if the Mayor could hear what I was saying to Gerard, so I didn't mention Erica's name. Instead, I referred to her as her alias, Hot Girl.

"Yeah, ok," Gerard responded. "Can I go back to sleep now?" he asked, burying his head back down in the crook of my neck. I giggled.

"Are you there Mr. Mayor?" I said into the phone.

"Yes. What have you decided?" he asked.

"We would like to take up your offer and come back off hiatus," I said to him.

"Ok. Well, meet me at my office at say, 3:40 and then The Dark Ninja can invisibly fly us to the police station so that we're not in any way under threat from being crystallized by Dr. Krustallos," the Mayor said.

"Ok, see you then," I said to him.

"I can't get back to sleep," Gerard groaned only a minute later, as we both continued to lay in bed.

"Well, how abouts we get down to spying on Bob, see if there's anything suspicious going on," I suggested.

"Ok. But the second I need to pee or need to eat, we're going off to get something to eat," Gerard said.

"Ok, how about we take regular breaks, like every hour or something?" I thought.

"Sounds good," Gerard said.

Less than an hour later, we had invisibly flown into Bob's backyard. We didn't know the way back to his house, but it wasn't hard to spot a fucking bright pink pool house from up in the air. So we were able to find it in the end.

"Lets get a little closer" I whispered. Gerard seemed to have other thoughts. He hovered us up in the air, and we ended up invisibly sitting on the pool house roof, right near a pipe. Surprisingly, it must've been a drainpipe which was connected to the interior of the pool house, because we could hear Bob talking.

"So Ray, this afternoon we're gonna go play bowling," Bob spoke. Gerard and I looked at each other. Ray was Ray's real name. It wasn't fucking Richard.

"Ok," came Ray's reply.

"I'd better tell Mom my plans so that she doesn't come and harass me. Also, I'll go to my old bedroom and grab you a beanie so that no one can see your afro. If you're on the run, not as many people will be able to recognize you without your afro," Bob pointed out. Ray was on the run? He'd escaped from jail?

The next thing Gerard and I knew, Bob was outside the pool house and walked down to his back door, going inside. Five minutes later, Bob came outside with his mother following him and talking to him.

"Come on Bob. I know you have a man inside there. I would like to meet him. After all, I am the one who pays the bills," she pointed out.

Bob sighed.

"No."

"Please Bob? It's bad enough you never told me you were gay. And now you're keeping your man away from me? I want to meet my future son in law," she said to Bob.

"He's already your son in law. We're life partners," Bob said. Was he for real? Were they really life partners? Or was that just some sort of cover.

"Oh my god. You didn't even invite me to your own union. Is that how you think of me? Am I a bad woman? What did I do wrong to deserve this treatment Bob? I took you back in after you were evicted and I even support you now. You quit your job and you just hide away like a hermit in the pool house." his Mom whined.

"Mom. Gimme a break! Richard and I are fine. In fact if you really wanna meet him, we're going bowling this afternoon, you can meet him before then. But you're not coming into the pool house to meet him. He might be naked or something," Bob said.

"Fine," she replied,. "But I'd better fucking meet him Bob!" she yelled out to him before going inside and slamming the back door.

Gerard and I listened for the next few hours, having regular breaks, but no plans about killing us came up. Dr. Krustallos and The Executioner were not mentioned once. It was just Bob and Ray talking like normal people, doing normal things. Although I don't think they were a couple. Sure, they flirted once or twice, but they were so not together. Gerard and I eventually decided to leave to head off to the Mayor's office. I was still convinced that Bob was Dr. Krustallos, but I couldn't wait to use that police program to see whether or not Ray was an escapee from jail.
