- Silhouette: [boom tube opening, footsteps: 3 instances] Master, he's here. As you predicted, he came alone. [boom tube closes]
- Sea Wolf: I thought we agreed no comms!
- Wildfire: Relax... Our master has other ways of communicating with us. We're honoring our agreement. did you?
- Sea Wolf: I have the package... there were some complications.
- Nightshade: Don't worry about those, sweetie. We really only cared about you.
- Sea Wolf: You mean... this is a set up?
- Silhouette: Call it whatever you want, but we prefer to see it as a... meet and greet.
- Sea Wolf: Like a business meeting?
- Nightshade: If you'd like. We have a proposition for you. [giggle] Play your cards right and maybe I'll have another one for you.
- Silhouette: Cool it, Shady. Stay on target.
- Sea Wolf: Well, whatever it is, I'm not interested. I've already got an assignment. Just pay me and I'll be on my way.
- Nightshade: Why can't they ever just hear us out?
- Silhouette: These Artifacts just like to do things the hard way, don't they?
- Wildfire: Speak for yourselves, girls. I just brought two in this morning with hardly a weapon drawn.
- Nightshade: The way I heard it was you took down Arkham X with one of my darts.
- Wildfire: Just a demonstration. The Artifacts themselves came willingly, which is more than I can say about-
- Silhouette: Enough. Shade, go left. Wildfire, take right. I'll flank him.. [swords drawn: 3 instances]
- Sea Wolf: Look... [sword drawn from sheath] We don't have to do this... Just pay me!
- Wildfire: Are you willing to come with us and have a talk with our employer?
- Sea Wolf: No. Like I said-
- Nightshade: Then we got to do this the hard way. Sorry, cutie. I'll try not to leave any scars, okay? [giggle]
- Sea Wolf: I'm an assassin from an aquatic race. i am stronger than you realize. You are making a mistake.
- Wildfire: Yeah, well... We're assassins, too. We've fought the likes of Batman, Green Arrow, and even the big blue Kryptonian.
- Nightshade: So you'll forgive us, if we're not trembling in our boots.
- Sea Wolf: [sigh] Fine, but you asked for this! [shout, swords clanking, rapid footsteps, swords swinging, whack, whack, whack, swords clashing, blade slashing, scream, sword swing, pained hiss, rapid footsteps, whack, thud, scream, bladed weapon piercing flesh, pained wail, blood splashing, cackle, gasps]
- Silhouette: [expletive] Rina! [stumbling footsteps, body slammed against wall] We want him alive!
- Nightshade: [giggle] He's fine... Like he said, he's a big tough Atlantean. It's barely a flesh wound. Besides, I coated my blade with a special additive just for him.
- Sea Wolf: [groan, stumbling footsteps] I'm done with this... [hacking cough, water splashing, water dripping, stumbling footsteps] Keep your money... [stumbling footsteps, thud]
- Silhouette: Wildfire?
- Wildfire: [footsteps, kneeling in water, mumbled counting] He's still alive... Just out cold. He's leaking water from his pores, too... That can't be good for a fish-bot.
- Silhouette: Master, if you're listening... The target is acquired. Open a boom tube when you're ready. [boom tube opens] Emma, Rina... Drag him over.
- Nightshade: Figures there's no 'Hey Rina, good work subduing the Atlantean... Good thinking dehydrating him'. [body dragging, footsteps: 2 instances]
Trivia and Notes[]
- Part of the Monitor War Storyline.

- Story continues in VOX Box: Team Building Exercises 17.
- The Assassinettes talk about fighting Batman, Green Arrow and Superman because they used to be Talia's bodyguards. They probably fought in those big battles where there's like twenty faceless ninja assassins fighting against 3 heroes. They're like the big baddies' best agents, the ones left standing until the very end of the fight.
