Prologue
There was something about lying that made it so attractive to me.
The way you try to settle your heart beat as you twist the story, inspecting the hearers eyes for that little twinkle of belief. That way you rack your brains for a little information, that is true, to a degree. Sometimes that is the best part; taking one small bit of truth and adding a bit on, so your not actually lying. Like when someone asks you what your name is, you say 'I'm pretty sure it's Ellie!', in a sarcastic tone. But you are pretty sure. Never trust someone's tone.
It's that second after you have told your tale that times seems to slow down. You wait. And, as always for me, they nod and dismiss me because they think I am telling the truth. Doubt is not in my dictionary.
Back stories are important.
There are some people who will really think your name is Ellie, but others will be suspicious. Pandora is a name that people remember, so you have to change it. The name Ellie just slips into the back of your mind, never to be thought about, ever. So you were left on the street the day after you were born, and put into an adoption agency, until you were adopted.
By who?
Alice.
Who is Alice?
I don't know her history.
If they are intrigued by this, they will contact Alice, but Mel is just as good as a liar as I am. She actually lives in Chicago, but will fly down when she needs to smooth things over.
You burn the records of your mother and father, Joel and Amy. Every little bit of information is destroyed, and you take care of anyone who ever knew them closely by inviting all of them to a picnic and using up some of that spare C-4 you had lying around. Yet it looks just like a gas pipe malfunction.
If anyone get suspicious, they have a long swim in Gotham Harbor ahead of them.
I'm home schooled, of course, only learning the important things.
Hacking government files and torture strategies from any villains who will give me the information. Anyone as high class as Cat Woman, to those petty muggers: I will soak up every little breaking and entering technique, study any martial arts... and test my skills on anyone who happens to irritate me.
The High Class Villains make stupid mistakes, like waiting to be caught.
Robbing obvious places, purposely leaving clues and playing games with Batman
That caped shadow who hides behind every corner.
That caped shadow who doesn't even know I exist. Boom.
Unlike stupid criminals, I steal little things. One jewel from a necklace from one store, a ring from another. It adds up. Soon you've got over seven thousand dollars on hand, and a truckload in your pillow, which is a lot for a fourteen year old. You put a little here, a little there, buy a few more guns. Simple.
You're under the radar, untraceable, invincible, uncanny.
Until it all goes wrong.
Yes? No? It gets better, trust me. and no, im not going to pair my OC off. unless it is to another OC. but this is mainly about my OC and a canon. OOH, WHICH ONE? hm. if you can connect the dots, you'll find out next chapter
