Chapter 7
It's been three days since Martianman Manhunter came. And it's been three whole days since they started. Not once had they took a break. Sooner or later it's going to affect the both of them if they don't get any food in there system.
Megan was looking at the both of them from the edge of the wall when Conner walks over and sees her and what she was looking at.
"They're still at it?"
"Yeah," she said. "I wonder what she did... Back on mars this was the worst type of training you can go through because its breaks you down mentally and physical." Just as the words left her mouth J'onn turns towards Megan.
"We are not to be disturb," Megan soon walk away from the brief room where Laiya and J'onn where at. Conner look at Laiya, Megan said that it's the worst type of training a person can go threw but she looks fine to him. Letting out a long awaited sigh he walks away.
It's been a week since Conner was told by Megan of her type of punishment. And during that time Batman hasn't come back to assign any mission to them. Laiya wasn't looking so good to him. She could barely stay in the air and was breathing hard. You could see drips of sweat running down her the side of her face and further down her neck. Her body was shaking. She was at her breaking point it. She tried to lift herself higher in the air; but it was all too much for her. She fell onto the floor. Passing out her breathing uneven started to slow down. J'onn got up and stood over Laiya; he went and picks her up and headed towards her room. Everyone look at her as he walks by. J'onn walks into her room and pulls back the blankets before laying her on the bed. Closing the door behind himself he left her there and back down the hall to the Zeta-Beams.
When J'onn was out of sight, Conner slip in Laiya room to check on her it didn't take long to notice that she was in pain. What type of punishment was worth what she did? What did she do to have this type of punishment?
They were all question that he wanted to be answer but at the moment that wasn't important. Laiya recovery was important. He goes into her bathroom and grabs a face towel wetting it with cold water, before taking it back into her room and laying it across her forehead. She started to look at bit more comfortable. He looks around the room and it was the same plan decoration it was when he first showed her the room.
Looking around he found a chair in the corner of the room. Pulling beside the bed he went and took a seat.
What could be going on in her mind? What happen in her mind? And was there anything that he could do for her to make her feel better?
Over the week of getting to know Laiya feeling started to show up feeling in which he didn't know he had. It was strange to him and it wasn't something that he thought was bad. It actually felt good; for once he felt something other than anger. It was feeling that his bad temper couldn't take away. All he knew was it just grew each time he saw her; but now he feels worry for her. Been worry for her the past two weeks… since the mission with Senor.
He wanted to do something for her. He felt as if he had to do something for him. Without even noticing he put her hand in his palms squeezing it tightly. Just for a moment; just touching her; even if it's just her hand seem right to him. It was all taken away from him too soon when her face towel started to dry up. He took off the towel and was about to get up and wet it again; but was soon stop by Laiya.
"Don't go," she held him lightly by his wrist. "Don't go," Conner sat back down in the chair.
"You're up," Laiya grab his hand and squeeze it.
"For now," she smiles. "Baby me a bit and stay her till I fall asleep," with a smile on her face she went and closes her eyes and went to sleep.
What felt like day were only a few mere hours for Laiya; but she was hungry and wasn't about to wait another minute for some food. With that thought in mind she got out of bed and headed towards the kitchen. The cave seems quite enough giving her reason for to believe that she was alone. She raided the fridge once she steps into the kitchen. When she was done going through the kitchen and cleaning it out; she walk around the cave to find that it was completely empty. She couldn't believe that they had left her here by herself. Then she thought see saw something in the shadows. She walks across the room towards it and was meet with nothing. She shook her head at the thought of her scaring herself. When she turned around she was meet with a smiling Robin. Having him sneak up on her cause her to react and had her shadows appear and wrap around him.
"Hey, chill out Nyght, it's just me," he said as she went and let him go.
"I told you before not to sneak up on me," she said.
"Sorry it's just a habit," he said. "You're up, feeling better?"
"Yeah," she looks around. "Where's everyone else?"
"They went on a scouting mission. I stayed back just in case you wake up"
"Thanks, sorry I know that you probably wanted to go"
"It's okay we've been through this before"
"Want to go bust a drug ring," she said smiling. "I could say that its part of your training," she wraps her arm around him.
"You're serious?"
"Yep, can't let the guys have all the action."
The both of them leave the cave and head out the Zeta-Beam to have some fun of their own.
