Two girls sat in a dark, damp warehouse. They had been taken from their home at 3 in the morning, while they were sleeping. They were blindfolded and tied to chairs, sitting upright with their hands at their sides. The elder of the girls was muttering words of comfort to the girl next to her, when the sound of footsteps was heard coming across from the other side of the room.
"How sweet that you comfort her like that, but how can you guarantee everything is going to be alright. For all you know the very next thing to happen could kill you," said a male voice with a small chuckle.
"Let us go," shouted the older girl, "what do you want with us?"
"Now you're a fiery one, just a simple experiment," replied the voice nonchalantly. Staying to the shadows the whole time the unknown figure stepped to a point in between the chairs and injected a blue liquid into the girls left arm, they walked round and did the same thing to the other girl, who hadn't said a word and sat trembling in her seat. The figure then began to walk out the room when he called over his shoulder.
"If either one of you dies, please do it loudly so I can hear." And with no other words or sounds the figure went through a door and the girls were left alone again, wondering what on earth had just happened.
Teams pov
"Everyone is to report to the mission room immediately, we have a situation." Nightwing's voice came over the radio, as the various members of the team stopped what they were doing and rushed to the mission room. It was 11am and every member of the team was in the cave, doing various activities.
"These two girls," Nightwing said pointing to their pictures on one of the screens, "Jessica and Alicia Belle, have been kidnapped, they are being held hostage and it is our job to save them."
"What's so special about them?" Lagoon boy asked a hint of annoyance to his voice, he was just about to watch a movie with Miss Martian.
"That is not important right now but we don't know who took them or why, our main priority is to make sure they are safe. It may not be a big mission but these are still innocent lives and they need to be saved," Nightwing replied matter of factly. "We will go to the warehouse where they are being held and wait until the right time to save them, everybody clear?" The room was filled with nodding heads and murmurs of understanding before the team ran off to the different modes of transport.

Back in the warehouse, the girls had, had their blindfolds removed and they're eyes were darting around the big, dank building when the footsteps returned but they could still not see who they belonged to because be the figure always stayed in the shadows.
"I hope you appreciate the blindfolds being taken off, I thought since I am waiting I would let you see, it's not like you can go anywhere," he nodded towards the rope still tying the girls to the chairs. As he spoke, the team crept into the building, Miss Martian, Blue Beetle, Wonder girl, Beast boy and Bumble bee using there powers to fly up to the rafters to get a better look, while the others crept along the floor of the warehouse, hiding behind crates and boxes.
"All you girls have to do is what I ask and nothing will happen to you," the man carried on.
"And what if we don't want to do what you ask?" Jessica, the eldest, questioned.
"This," the shadowy figure hissed, quickly slicing the ropes tying Alice down and grabbed her around the neck. Impulse went to run forward but Nightwing held him back. Anything rash they did could endanger the hostages even more.
"Leave my sister alone," Jessica cried, "what do you want us to do?"
"All in good time, fiery, and where would the fun be if I did that, hmm?"
"Let. Her. Go," Jess growled, the anger boiling up inside her. Her hands began to glow red and out shot 2 fire balls one from each hand that joined together to make one big one that hit the shadowy figure in the stomach causing him to drop Alicia. Nightwing gave the signal and the team ran in, the aerial team flew around the shadows searching for the kidnapper, while the team on foot rushed forward to help the siblings. Nightwing ran to Jessica and began to untie her ropes, while impulse and robin ran to Alicia, with Superboy, lagoon boy and Batgirl running around the rest of the warehouse, checking for anything that could stop them making an easy get away.
"What was that?" Nightwing asked, an edge to his voice.
"Does it look like I know," Jessica snapped.
"I was just asking," Nightwing muttered under his breath.
"What did you say?" Jessica said glaring. Before he could answer, Batgirl shouted from across the warehouse.
"Everything's clear, we're good to go when you're ready."
"Thanks, C'mon let's go," Nightwing told Jessica and held his hand out for her. Robin and Impulse were already picking Alicia, where Impulse promptly held her in a bridal style hold and ran off to the bio ship.
"Ah, really but it is so nice here," Jessica said sarcastically but with a very nonchalant attitude.
"Very funny, now get up we don't know how long we have," Nightwing told her bluntly. Taking his hand, Jessica got off the chair and immediately her legs buckled underneath her. Quickly Nightwing grabbed her before she hit the concrete floor.
"Can you walk?" He asked her, immediately knowing it was a stupid question.
"What do you think?" Jessica replied, her voice dripping with hatred.
"What is her problem?" Thought Nightwing
"Fine, I'm going to have to carry you then," he said bluntly.
"Oh, wow, how lucky am I, being carried by a real life hero. All my friends are going to be so jealous," Jessica told him, putting emphasis on the words, lucky, real life, friends and jealous.
"Like you have any friends, you're so temperamental," he mumbled.
"Will you stop muttering things, it's getting on my nerves," She said as he picked her up bridal style and ran off towards the ship.
"Sorry Jessica."
"Its Jess." She told him pointedly as they exited the warehouse. They were the last to arrive back and the ship took off as soon a they were seated.
"Are you okay Alice?" Jess asked her sister.
"Yes, what about you?" Alice questioned.
"As good as I can be surrounded by these... heroes," Jess replied saying the last word as if it left a bitter taste in her mouth. Nightwing heard Jess say this, there was definitely something deeper going on, something that he was going to get to the bottom of.
