I've had a bad couple of days

You get a chapter


Wally clicked away at his computer.

No matter what, the Light's plans didn't make sense to him.

He couldn't get Hero and Lea involved, but Robin...

Then his phone rang.

"Wally," he just said, when he picked up the phone.

"I've hacked the flash drive," Robin said.

Wally stood up. "Do we need to come in?"

"Yeah … this could be bad, like really bad." Robin said.

Wally looked at his computer with the Light's data.

He shook head. "I'll call Artemis and Rocket."

"See you at the cave," Robin said and disconnected the call.

Wally signed, not knowing why.

Why hadn't he told Robin about the data Lea had gotten from the the Light? It wasn't like he had anything to hide anymore, and it wouldn't do anyone any good if he didn't tell anyone.

He shook his head and pulled on his jacket.


She came into the room, expecting to see Thorn sleeping in the bathtub, but he was gone.

She dropped the bag of food.

"Thorn?" She called.

There was no answer.

She turned around and looked down the long, dark hallway. And started walking down it slowly.

"Thorn...?" She called again.

Where could he have gone? Shouldn't he still be to weak been dehydrated for days to go outside hte room … now that she thought about it … where were the others? Shouldn't they still be here?

Suddenly there came an odd sound from behind a closed door.

She pushed open the door slowly. "Thorn?" She called out again.

There was nothing there.

She shook her head. If they were playing some kind of a joke on her...!

She looked around, there was no one there...

"What are you doing?"

She turned around on her heel in fear.

She suddenly stood face to face with a person with glowing yellow eyes without pupil.

"Whisper!" She said relieved.

"Why are you sneaking around?" Whisper asked.

"Why are you hanging upside down from the ceiling?" She asked and looked up.

Whisper followed her gaze to her feet, which stood perfectly on the ceiling. It almost seemed like if she jumped she would fall down.

She looked down at her friend. "I'm not really sure."

Then she turned her head slightly, like she hadn't realized that her hair was hanging down towards the floor.

"Was there something you wanted?" She asked, as she rolled a lock of her hair between her fingers.

"Do you know were Thorn is? I can't find him." The other girl said.

"Yeah, he wanted Wolf to expand the glamour around the building, so it covered the back alley..." she said and looked around confused. "How do you suppose I get down?"

Instead of answering the other girl rubbed her chin. "So him and Wolf are outside in the alleyway? … Wait, then why are you inside?"

"I'm not really sure … I think I was asleep." She said. "Why are you so concerned about Thorn?" The other girl just rolled and walked passed her.

"You could at least help me down first, Ace!" Whisper yelled after her.


"Thorn, Whisper, Wolf and Ace." Robin read aloud.

"Is that their real names?" Super boy asked confused.

"According to the files, yes." Robin said, while he read trough the rest of the files.

"They must have some really weird parents." Rocket said.

"Thorn is the son of Poison Ivy, Wotan is the father to Whisper and Wolf and Ace is the daughter of the Joker."

Wally spit out the water he'd been drinking.

"The Joker? Seriously?"

Artemis bite into her lip.

"Are you okay?" Zatanna asked and stepped closer to her.

"Do you … do you know them?" Kaldor asked.

"I have meet Thorn and Ace once or twice, but I've only heard about the twins." She said and rubbed her hands together.

"The twins?" Rocket asked.

"Whisper and Wolf, they're twins, no one has ever really seen them..."

Robin nodded, without taking his eyes off the computer screen.

"It says that the two of them was taken in after they used some kind of magic to hypnotize an entire nightclub. Ace seemed to have been taken, after she was left behind at one of the Joker's hideout."

"And Thorn?" M'gann asked.

"Says here, he attacked some people in a park." Robin read.

"And we're sure they're dangerous?" Kaldor asked.

"I'll say we are." Rocket commented.

Wally glanced at Artemis, who seemed very uncomfortable about the whole thing. "Are you okay?"

She nodded.

"You don't have to do this, if you don't want to." Zatanna said, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"No, it's fine. It's not like I knew them that well." She said. "I'm going to get something to drink."

They all watched her closely as she walked to the kitchen.

"If she didn't know them that well, why does it bother her." Superboy asked.


"Thorn!" She yelled, as she came out the backdoor.

"Yeah?" He asked and got up.

She stopped in her tracks. "What are you doing?"

"Do you like it?" He asked and gestured to grass. "I grew it from some grass sticking out of the concrete."

"An the apple tree?" She asked, still stunned about the garden in front of her.

"I found a discarded apple core in a trash bin, want an apple?" He asked and reached up to a thick branch with and apple, which lowered it self to he could get it. Then he handed the apple to her.

She took it and looked at it suspiciously.

"You made all of this, while I was out for an hour or two?" She asked and gestured to the garden.

"Yeah," he nodded. "I figured we could be somewhat frugal, and since I'm still a little off, this is kind of my only way to help."

She nodded slowly and took a bite of the apple. "I guess you're right, just … don't overexert yourself."

"Careful Ace, you're crossing the line from friendly concern to a lover's unneeded worry." A voice said behind her.

She turned around.

"Would you two stop doing that!" She growled.

Wolf smiled at her. "Whisper did the same thing to you?"

He seemed amused.

She shook her head. "Where were you anyway?"

"I found Cameron." He just said.

"Why did you go at night?" Thorn asked as he made a flower grow with a circular motion with his hand. "Wouldn't it be easier during the day?"

"Unlike us most people move around in the daylight, it's easier at night when they're sleeping." Thorn looked up at clear night sky. "Yeah, and it makes it easier for us to hide our … unique appearance."

"Did you talk to him?" Whisper asked from the still open backdoor.

"No, not yet." He said. "Or Artemis..."

Ace nodded.

"We should be careful, I don't know about Artemis, but Cameron have never been able to keep his mouth shut."

"She's right," Thorn said and picked another apple. "We wouldn't want to attract any parental attention."
