I hope everything is going ok. Should I really of sent Helena out to get Dinah? Would Helena be able to look beyond her superhero persona and just be plain old or rather young Helena?
I can only hope and pray that both of my girls are ok. Yes I said my girls. They both are like daughters to me. I raised Helena since she was a mere child and Dinah was just a little older when she came to us. I glance at the clock hanging on the wall. Its almost mid-night. Should I begin to worry? No, I will trust the two of them...Which is probably my first big mistake. But hey...we are only human. Well that is...I am only human.
(Helena)
I can't let her get to the clock tower. If she makes then all chances of me talking to her are over. We most defiantly needed to talk. I mean, you just don't kiss someone out of the blue without any warning for no reason at all. I grab a hold of a nearby fire escape ladder and pull myself up. I was taking to the roof tops, I can move a lot faster in the sky then on land. Plus it takes away all noise of me...Added bonus in my eyes.

Almost there...I am breathing hard. Man I needed to train harder. I am way out of shape. I skid to a stop when I hear silence behind me. What happened to Helena? She was right behind me for more than four blocks. I turn and let my eyes scan the deserted street. Nothing, not a trace of her. Did she give up? Yeah right and I'm the pope. Helena Kyle give up? Never. I scan the street once again and turn only to run into something. I fall backward and onto my ass. I manage to squeak out. "Ow!"
(Helena)
She has stopped. I wonder why? The clock tower ain't more than a block away. Then it hits me. She can't hear me anymore. She thinks that I have given up the chase of her blonde ass. Boy is she wrong.
I walk to the edge of the building I was standing on and drop down behind her silently. Then I wait. What a surprise she is going to get when she turns around. I have to refrain from bursting out laughing. After a few seconds she does what I thought. She turns and runs into me with enough force to knock her backward and onto her ass. I make sure that I am well hidden in the shadows and then step up to her. Or rather loom over her. A small smirk is playing on my lips.
(Dinah)
I let out a snort. That hurt. Who was this person to just stop infront of me? Wasn't there anywhere else on the street to stop? The figure steps toward me. I think that I am actually scared. I slowly push myself backward away from the person. My jean clad butt is rubbing on the pavement. Hello, can you say butt-burn?
(Helena)
I see that she is backing up. She is afraid of me. Afraid of the unknown. Interesting if you ask me. I take another step forward and hold my hand out to help her up. I make sure that my face is still hidden by the shadows.
(Dinah)
I take the out stretched hand and pull myself to my feet and rubs a hand over my sore bottom. Then I realize what I did. I trusted this stranger. But why? Wait a minute. I know who this is... "What do you want from me, Helena?" I mutter out.
