Author's Note: I know, I know, I said yesterday that I would probably not be updating for a while and I probably made you cry... (LOL, I hope I made you cry! Muwahahahahaha!) But, LOL, I LIED. Jk, jk, this is the newest chapter on my first and only story, 'My Sun and Stars'. I hope you enjoy!
On a different note, like I said before, any comments and reviews on my story/chapters are very much welcome! I hope to hear good and constructive feedback/criticism from all of yall out there!
"Wondy! You're back just in time! I was hoping you would challenge me to a round in the simulator? I was looking forward to it!"
I guess it took me a moment for it to sink it. I think its been at least three weeks since Wally could even spare a glance at his uniform.
"Oh, well…" I rub the back of my neck, the information just fully hasn't sunken in yet. "I guess… Did I miss something?" Flash gave me this confused look. There was some awkward silence before GL appeared next to me. "Wonder Woman," He said with an obvious amount of worry flowing from his words, "I'm glad you came back right away!" He put his arm around me and started to lift me off the ground directing me the total opposite direction of Flash. There was some, unnatural urgency in his voice.
"Is everything ok GL? You're voice level is a little "out of tuned" and your," I paused trying not to physically gesture to his hand grabbing my upper arm, "overly friendly "'gesture' is unnatural." I ground myself before he can take me any further into the air.
GL had a twitchy, irritated smile. He leaned in a little closer, keeping a good eye on Wally, "Diana, please, for once, just 'go with it'."
I had no way of getting out.
"Well, are we up for a challenge or no?" Wally was getting impatient. Crossed arms, foot taping. "I glance back at GL, he's give me the same impatient look that Wally's giving me. Just slightly more threatening...
"Oh, well, umm..." I positively couldn't answer either of them, "Wally? I know I always love a good match, but I'll challenge you later." I tried to make my most sincere face.
Wally's scowl quickly turned into a smirk. "Oh, well, I guess I'll see you around." A devilish smirk flashed across his face before he sped off.
GL grabbed my shoulder, "Come on, that never means anything good."
He flies off and I quickly follow him looking behind me just to see if Flash was following.
"Can you explain yourself?" I give the back of his head an intense glare. "I was gone for less than an hour and Flash is running around, in his full propaganda. It would seem as though I've been gone for over a year!"
Oh, how I wish it's been a year. In my young life, with all of eternity to live, one year, in this present moment, is enough to heal the deeps wounds that will probably scar me for .
GL doesn't say anything while we fly down the hall. "GL, don't ignore me." My patient is running thin, which seems very common lately. "I need to know what's happening in order to help."
He leads me down to the Hall of Justice's League Room. It's the room where no one but the main members of the Justice League is allowed in. We haven't yet recruited most of the applicants that we chosen for the League's expansion. The thought of the process stung me in the heart, Batman was supposed to recruit the vigilantes and heros from all around the world.
GL sealed us in the room. No sound can penetrate the walls or no metahuman can hear into this room, its certified by Superman.
"GL, what is the meaning of this!?" I look around to see the whole League at attention to me.
He stepped away from the control panel and faced me, "Diana, we were hoping you could tell us what you did," It felt like he was pointing an accusing finger at me, "or saw."
It took a moment for it to sink in, "Are you indicting me of doing something to Flash?"
Honestly, I was more hurt than felt that I was being accused of something.
Superman was sitting in the head chair the entire time, "Diana, we're not indicting or blaming or acussing you of anything, we just want to know the truth. Besides, J'onn doesn't want to rummage through your mind. We all have our secrets, Diana."
I was tempted to pull out my sword, but these are my teammates. "I left over an hour ago to approach Nightwing about the disappearance of Batman and Hawkgirl. He took it personally, towards me. The League has nothing to worry about." My voice was monotone and clear, no expression detected.
"But as for Flash, something did happen earlier this morning. I was visiting him on my usual basis and then he started doing something extremely dangerous. He started vibrating his molecules so fast, that the Speed Force was starting to open."
I could hear GL hold his breath. He hasn't taken a step away from the control panel. J'onn was obviously shocked, which was unusual. Superman, he was just bemused.
"Why didn't you address this situation immediately? He could have torn the whole Watch Tower down in less than a fraction of a second!" he sounded angry, but I think he was just worried about our wellbeing.
Superman has been my guardian for the past few months now, hearing him 'scold' me wakes me up from the dream that submerges me.
"I'm sorry, Superman. But if I have permission, I would like to address the matter now." I pull myself together, I have to, for my sister who would understand this situation far better than I ever will.
His facial expressing hasn't changed, I don't blame him, "As soon as I arrived, Flash started to open the Speed Force, I stopped him. There isn't much to this discussion, but I have a feeling that there's a lot more to it than meets the eye."
As I walk down toward the landing dock, for a second time today, I think about what was spoken during the 'meeting'. I know I'm missing something, I just don't know what. I then remember that Batman has a personal computer in his headquarters located in the east wing.
I couldn't help but frown at my nasty idea to invade on my former teammate's privacy...
I stop, turn around and walk back towards Batman's personal headquarters in the Watch Tower. I know I won't have access, no one does.
I stop at the door and touch my earpiece, "Contact the Batcave." I wait a few moments while my earpiece is beeping. I try to manually hack the security, but its no use. Batman's security wall is too advanced.
Then I hear a much too familiar voice coming through the earpiece, "What, you again? What do you want?"
Just to keep my hands busy, I tamper with the security a little more, noting the type of fire wall he used. "I need access to Batman's file."
Brief silence, "Batman's file?" I can hear the enmity in his voice, "Do you think I'm really that naïve? You don't even know who he is under that cowl."
I can't ask for too much. I already antagonized the man, "Fine, just give me some sort of print, password."
"tsk…" then he cuts me off.
Fine. But I've gotten this far, I'm not stopping. I bring my right foot behind me, shift my weight, and swing my hips around bringing my foot to direct contact with the security console. It flies off the wall and tumbles to the ground. I checked for any alarms that might go off, but luckily I was able to disable them.
Honestly speaking, if I was able to tear through his door, I truly believe he wasn't as great as a detective as the world thought of him to be.
To my dismay and luck, I tear through the tripled insulated titanium alloy door.
I doubt that will all the noise I've made, one of the Leaguers will soon arrive to HIS headquarters.
I walk through, it looked like a lab. There were several bats in contamination cages stacked against the wall.
'What were you doing in here Batman?'
I focus my attention towards the main computer in the room, a similar version of the supercomputer in the Batcave.
The security on the computer is so advanced, there would be no way in, and surely for any hackers, there would be no way out.
The thought of me getting stuck in Batman's security wall in the supercomputer is something I don't want to experience.
I take a special hard drive and look around the back of the supercomputer to find the one jack that fits this complex hard drive.
Since this computer is different from the one I was taught to use in the Batcave, it takes me a little longer to find the jack. When I do, I plug it in, since there is only one drice in the world that would fit this jack, and it cannot be duplicated with any machine. This drive will take the last opened file on the supercomputer.
I quickly shut down everything in the room and place the crunched door back in the door frame as best as I could. At least his headquarters in the Watch Tower are on the base floor, no one really comes down here unless the power goes out or laundry needs to be done.
I cross my fingers behind my back while grasping the hard drive securely hoping that no one detects anything...
Ok, well, I seriously think that was like, THE longest chapter I've made. And honestly speaking, I'm very proud of it!
Please tell me what you think of the story so far! I've gotten a few comments saying that you guys aren't really fond of first person, well, I'm so sorry about that! I'm still not very good at third person writing, so I would need a few tips on how to write from that perspective...
Thanks everyone for reviewing and commenting on my updated chapters and story! I really enjoy reading all the different comments posted!
To end on a different note, like I said before, I seriously want to write a story about a character who is from this world and somehow was able to create a dimension portal and jump into the DC Comics world. He/she meets up with all the hero's and knows all their alter-egos.
So, if you think that's interesting, please, by all means, tell me! I would like to know your opinion on that! Thanks so much~!
I know you guys are probably like, holy frick! This is like the longest 'end of the story author's note' ever! I'm so sorry about that, BTW. Please, bare with me.
Thanks so much for all your comments and thank you for taking time out of your life to read my (somewhatdreadful) story! I hope you guys continue reading and reviewing!
BTW, This is for sure the last time I update this everyday/every-other-day because I have to continue writing...
