Last time on Theories:

"Avon, I want Nova to leave you completely and disintegrate," Hannah growled. It wasn't normal that she would use her power, but her attention was now on another death she caused. Jack was being held back by Mia, screaming as tears escaped his eyes. Hannah grabbed Avon's shoulders and the demon part of him laughed.

"Silly little Hannah, you really think your powers are to any match to me?" Nova chuckled. Hannah's eyes squinted, and she felt somebody walk next to her.

"Try me," Chase growled, his bow raised and pointed straight at Avon's heart. "I might not be able to control you, but I sure as hell can control the future," Chase snapped. He smirked lightly, winking towards Hannah. Mia stood up as well, as Leilani had taken the task of holding Jack.

"And I can control your thoughts and emotions," Mia said proudly. All three of them looked at one another. "And I say, Nova, go to hell."

Hannah looked back at Mia and Chase, and she frowned slightly. If Nova kills them… then it's all my fault… should be just let Nova go? Hannah looked down towards Brandon, who was in the arms of Jack at the moment, and she made her decision. The brunette stepped forward, fury in her eyes as she put her fists up.

"Nova, give it up!" Hannah threatened. Avon chuckled, his laugh deep and homicidal, and he cracked his neck. Fear started rushing through Hannah's veins, and her arms started to slowly tremble. Hannah took a few deep breaths and readied herself. If she were to die, she wanted it to be by protecting somebody she loved.

"Petty human, you have been a tick to me for too long. Tonight, I shall feast on all of your souls," Nova barked, laughing once more. For a split second his hair started turning black before going straight back to white. "Your friend here is struggling, he knows I have power over him. Quit fighting me Avon, it'll only get worse in time," Nova cackled. He took out Hannah's bloodied sword and smirked, his helmet long tossed aside.

"God, Ollie's going to have my ass for this one," Chase muttered under his breath. He took a step forward, bow still raised, and he drew back an arrow. Nova's red eyes hardened, and as Chase released the arrow, Nova rushed forward, the sword knocking the arrow in half. Chase didn't look panicked, but he instead unsheathed another weapon.

As Chase held the weapon in hand and shot the arrow, Hannah rushed forward and drop kicked Nova, throwing him to the ground. She landed on top of him with a thud, her legs crouched underneath her. "Avon, you have to fight Nova. I know you're in there somewhere. I know you don't want to hurt me," Hannah said in a soft tone. Nova struck forward, knocking Hannah off of balance and tumbling to the side. He leapt up and brought the sword to Hannah's neck with a smirk.

"Hey bastard!" Mia screamed. Both Hannah and Nova looked up at her, only to see that her body had a dark purple aura surrounding it and rocks started levitating off the ground and flew at a rapid pace towards Nova. His eyes slightly widened before he was kicked off of Hannah. Mia's form went limp and she fell to the ground, crumbling beneath her weight. Nova stood up and ran, more like glided, towards Mia's form and kicked her in the stomach between her ribs.

Chase shot another arrow at Nova as he surveyed the scene that would be happening in ten seconds. He flipped backwards and out of mind from an ongoing attack, and he glanced towards his teammates for help. It seemed as though everyone was preoccupied with either helping Siobhan, who was panicking, or helping Brandon not bleed out. Chase sighed as he dodged to the side, missing a head first attack from Nova.

Hannah grabbed at the edge of her utility belt and tugged on it slightly. Nova was starting to get angry, and she could see that his arms were growing hot. If it wasn't for Nova's beyond minimal intelligence, he would have, should have, used it to his advantage. Hannah took out a gas pellet and threw it at the attacker with enough force to knock down a small child. Smoke blew out in all directions, and coughing surrounded the small area, but none from Avon or Nova. Hannah's eyes widened as Nova picked her up by her throat.

"You pathetic piece of trash. I'm glad I got the opportunity to kill you myself," Nova sneered, applying pressure to Hannah's throat. She started struggling to breathe, and she closed her eyes awaiting her doom. At least with her dead no one else would have to perish because of her. Everything suddenly felt light, and Hannah opened her eyes.

"You leave her alone," Luna said as she was kneeling right over Hannah, her arm up to protect her like a shield. Nova chuckled and brought the sword down upon Luna, and Hannah closed her eyes tightly. She heard a yell come from Nova, and she opened her eyes to see that Luna not only was bloody from her arms, but she held no injuries.

"How did you do that?" Hannah whispered in an amazed tone. Luna glanced down at Hannah and sighed, before standing up fully and kicking Nova in the chest, causing him to stumble backwards.

"Stand down Nova. You cannot defeat me. My cells regenerate, meaning that even if you kill me I'll come back," Luna spat in an angry tone. Nova was on the ground, shuddering in pain as his hair started turning half black again. "Avon, please try harder, I know that you can beat Nova out of you," Luna spoke calmly. Avon started choking on his own spit, and Luna bent down and realized that blood was coming out of his mouth.

"Dumb foolish girl, you have destroyed my vessel," Nova sneered angrily, stuttering on his words. He looked down at his hands which were coated in blood and saliva and groaned angrily. "This is not the last time you all will be seeing me," Nova promised. "I shall just be in a new vessel, a more powerful one!" Nova screeched. Luna watched on in horror as black thick smoke came out of Avon's mouth and nose, before Avon's head hit the ground harshly.

"Avon!" Luna screamed as she bent down, checking for a pulse. She sighed in relief when she realized that a faint one was still existent. She glanced at her teammates, who all looked on in horror.

"Back away from his body slowly," Brett ordered as he took a few steps forward. Luna shook her head, her thick short red hair bouncing in different patterns. "Luna, please, he's dangerous," Brett said in a quiet tone. Luna stood up and allowed for Jack to pull her away, before collapsing on the ground crying.

"Hey, what's wrong? Are you okay?" Jack asked, his cheeks stained red as well as his eyes. Luna glanced into his green eyes and started crying harsher, before scrambling away. Hannah looked on from a distance as she knelt beside Brandon, who was breathing in at an odd rate.

"Baby Boy? You still with us?" Hannah asked in panic as she reached out to hold his hand. She saw all of the blood staining his chest and shoulder and shuddered. She grabbed a piece of his shirt and tore at it, using it as make shift gauze. His expression looked pained before he chuckled.

"Damn, and I just got that cast off too," he joked, his eyes starting to go hazy. "Hey, is the kid alright?" Brandon asked in a strained tone. Hannah looked up to see that Siobhan was in the arms of Tomi, who were flying away with a shake of the head. Hannah sighed.

"She'll be alright." Hannah looked up as Elaine, Phoebe and Alayna walked towards them, distrust in their features. They all stopped a good six feet away from the two, and Hannah helped Brandon up so they could get a move on to the jet she knew they had.

"Linda… I-" Elaine started, her hand twitching for her lasso. "-I don't know what to say," Elaine finished lamely. Phoebe looked hurt behind her, biting her lip as she glanced down at the floor. "Your access to the cave will be terminated and… you'll be arrested the next time we catch you," Elaine said, not looking directly at Hannah.

"Come on Elaine, Siobh- Moonix, needs us," Alayna said, correcting herself. Her eyes traveled down to where Brandon's eyes were and she mouthed a polite thank you. Alayna and Elaine both turned around and started their march to catch up with Tomi and Siobhan. Hannah arched her eyebrow at Phoebe, and the smaller girl rushed up and hugged her quickly, before scampering off. Hannah limped her way to the others with Brandon at her side.

Once Jack saw that Brandon was in Hannah's arms, his expression turned angry. "Give him to me," Jack ordered in an angry tone. Hannah grabbed onto Brandon tightly, and looked at him for confirmation. It didn't take a second for Brandon to move towards Jack with a hurt look on his face as he glanced back at Hannah for the first real time. She took a step back only to be tackled by Leilani.

"You stupid bitch! Rosalyn is dead because of you!" Leilani sneered, taking a blade out from her pocket and pressing it against Hannah's cheek, drawing blood. "I hope you can sleep at night!" Hannah just laid there frozen on the ground, taking deep breaths.

"Get off of her you crazy psychotic bitch. Rosalyn's dead because of me," Brett shouted, kicking Leilani in the ribcage, knocking her off of Hannah. He leant down his hand for Hannah to grab, but she just turned and slowly got up on her own. "I'm the one that forced her into hiding, and without telling any of you," he muttered. Hannah stood behind Brett with an expressionless face. He looked at me like he was scared of me… like he had seen a ghost…

"You should have just pulled the plug on me Damnit!" Hannah screamed after a minute of arguing between Leilani and Brett. "We would have saved ourselves so much trouble if I were just dead, right?" Hannah snapped. Mia put her hand on Hannah's shoulder and she shrugged it off. "Why don't you just kill me now, huh?" Hannah screamed.

"Hannah, stop it! I can't control this blast of-" Mia started, but it was already too late. For the second time in the past twenty four hours, emotions have left Mia's control, and the weaker of the bunch dropped onto the floor.

"Shit!" Mia yelled as both Brandon and Avon hit the ground. "Enough arguing, we have to get these two to the ICU," Mia snapped at the team. Hannah nodded as she scooped Brandon back up, sending a glare in a certain blonde's direction. Brett had run off to retrieve the jet, which was a few yards away, giving them time to grab a deceased Rosalyn as well.

Hannah glanced at the clock in the ICU and sighed, removing her hand from Brandon's so she could crack her knuckles. It's been a good five hours since the arguing had subsided, and seven since both occupants in the room had been sedated. Hannah sighed, running her fingers through her hair.

"There's no good way to say that I'm sorry, is there?" Hannah spoke aloud in a whisper. Even though Avon was on the other side of the room, and frankly tied up, she would feel more secure if it was just the two of them. "Your friend Jack seems a little over protective, but that's good. Someone needs to protect you from me," Hannah mumbled. She coughed roughly, adjusting the gauze that prevented the stitches on her hand to get infected.

"Here you are again Hannah, fucking up every family you ever get… what were you thinking, you almost got him killed…" Hannah spoke to herself. She clutched the side of the hospital bed and leaned forward. "To make matters worse, you killed Leilani's best friend, not only pissing her off, but your brother's brother. God, why didn't Brett just let Ra's pull the plug?" Hannah said in an angered tone, her volume rising slightly. She looked down at Brandon's sleeping form.

"You know, if this would have been a book or a movie you would have woken up and denied everything and called me perfect," Hannah joked with a faint of a smile. Brandon turned on his side, elevating the injured portion but putting his back to Hannah. Hannah bit the inside of her cheek.

"Hey princess, it's my turn to watch the nerd," a voice from the door said, scaring Hannah out of her thoughts. Jack came out of the shadows and sat down next to Hannah, looking at Brandon's back and sighing. Hannah sat there quietly, hands in her lap. They sat in silence for a while, before Jack pinched the bridge of his nose. "They really missed you, you know. They aren't mad… they're just…" Jack started, trailing off.

"Confused? Frustrated? Upset they had to lose three allies because of me?" Hannah spoke in a calm tone. Jack looked at her, his blue eyes hiding sadness as if it was the easiest thing in the world. Jack put his hand on top of Hannah's.

"I'm confused, I'm frustrated, and I'm upset that Rosalyn is dead and Brandon's in the ICU," Jack said honestly. "Hannah, they're still your family. Don't say that Brett should have killed you, Love." Jack stood up, stretching his legs.

"Hey Jack?" Hannah said in a questionable tone, her eyes still on Brandon's back. Jack raised his eyebrow in suspicion. "Thanks… for everything… you don't even know me, but you've been keeping my family safe and happy," Hannah said in a soft tone. Jack licked his lips, before crossing his arms and walking out with a nod, leaving Hannah alone again.

Tomi screamed in frustration as he punched the wall right beside the main entrance to the cave. As he passed by a small tableside lamp, he pushed it over the edge causing it to shatter. Siobhan squeaked in displeasure, still shaking as she was seated by Phoebe, who held a kind smile on her face. "It'll be okay kiddo," Phoebe said in a happy tone.

"Shut the hell up! Nothing's okay! I don't know who to fucking trust anymore!" Tomi screamed. "Our ally just happened to be a villain, a villain saved Siobhan's life for the third time in a row!" Tomi said frustrated. "I don't even know if her name is Linda or not!"

"She wasn't a bad person, Tomi. She was forced in the life and just wanted to do good," Chase tried reasoning. Tomi grew angry and raised his fist, before putting it back down.

"I'm not going to strike against a blind man," Tomi said, frustrated, pulling at his hair for a slight second before releasing it with a sigh. His knuckles were bright red and stung with every movement. Chase clenched his fist at his side, before bringing it out in front of him and punching Tomi in the nose.

"Shut the hell up Tomi. Linda was a good person with bad decisions in her life. She can't help what people forced her to be," Chase argued, rubbing his fist as Tomi stood up, rubbing his nose for a moment, trying to figure out if Chase had broken it or not.

"If she was such a good person, why did she go back over to the villain side?" Tomi snapped, going to sit next to Siobhan on the couch. Alayna had rushed out of the room to get Siobhan her bat plushie, and returned with a blanket as well.

"She went back over because her previous family had fallen. They needed her whether you like it or not," Chase muttered.

"I don't care what her morals are, next time any of you see her, she is to be arrested. My orders," Elaine spoke in a loud voice, stomping her foot as to try and end the conversation. A cough was heard from behind them, and they all spun around to see that Batman had come out of the shadows with a glare on his face. "Linda was part of the villain team, did you know that?" Elaine asked, speaking out of terms.

Batman looked past them and at Siobhan, and he walked forward. Siobhan's eyes were dilated and she was breathing shakily. He brought out a flashlight and shined it in her eyes for a second before backing away. "She's in shock. Send her to the Medical Room," Batman ordered. Phoebe stood up and grabbed Siobhan much like a baby.

"Answer me!" Elaine snapped, standing up and poking Batman in the chest. He glared down at her finger for a second, before grabbing her wrist and pinning her against the wall. Elaine's eyes went wide and she struggled against his grip. "I did know. And she posed no threat to the team. Question my authority again…" he trailed off, leaving Elaine to her imagination. He released her and she rubbed her wrist in pain.

"We're terminating her access to the cave," Alayna spoke out in a quiet voice. "For safety precautions…" Batman turned in her direction and glared at her for a moment.

"Hannah was no villain," he said in a chilling tone, before following Siobhan out of the room and into the Medical Area. Elaine glanced at Alayna in fear, before squatting on the ground in pain. I shouldn't be having to make theories about who I can and can't trust…
