Disclaimer: not mine . . . I only wish...Rico and the dead girls are mine though so's the story idea...
Author: me . . . Ali. The title was my brother's idea though . . .
Author's note: in the comic they call Barbra 'Babs' so I'm gonna use it too . . . it's shorter to type
and I'm a lazy ass ;-)
Sorry everyone for the multiple postings . . . it was completely unintentional, my computer is
messed up . . . sorry! It won't happen again . . . :-( anyway . . . on with the story!
The next night, around five, in the clock tower . . .
"Hey Babs I'm hungry why don't you ever have any food in this Damn place? Whatever . . .
I'll just go out. I'm in the mood for Chinese anyway. DINAH . . . I'm going out for Chinese and
feeling generous, do you wanna come?"
"Yeah, definitely," Dinah yelled from upstairs, excited that Helena actually thought about
her. "Babs do you want to come?"
"You too go, have fun, I'm gonna stay here and work on the murder from yesterday."
**************************************************************************
in the Chinese restaurant . . .
"Hey Helena look at that guy . . . he's really cute" Dinah told her 'big sister'. She was closer to
Helena now so she figured it was time to talk about guys and stuff, and she wanted to see into the
workings of Helena Kyle's messed up mind, without cheating and using her powers.
"Yeah, if you like preppy guys. (Pause) look . . . he's wearing a tie," Helena says with a smirk.
"He's so not my type. Way to good guy . . . not enough bad guy."
"Wait, doesn't Reese wear a tie? And a suit?"
"So, that's different, he gives his tie a bad boy look. He's not 'cute,' he's handsome; sexy.
He looks like he would be fun." Huntress told Dinah then winked.
"That's uh . . . great, thanks, I needed the image of you too in my mind, I see enough visions
as it is. Anyway, I thought he wasn't your boyfriend, yet you speak so highly of him. Hmm, could I
be right? Could the mighty Huntress be Detective Reese's girlfriend?"
"Dinah, I WAS feeling generous before, now I'm contemplating whether or not to kick your
ass when we get home. So shut up, now," Helena told the young girl eyes her normally blue eyes
changed into red catlike slits.
"Huntress," Babs interrupted over her via comm, "there will be no super powers used to
solve domestic problems."
"I wasn't gonna do anything . . . yet," Helena shot back at her mentor as her eyes changed
back to normal. "Hey Dinah isn't that blonde girl a friend of yours from school. She looks familiar,
and it looks like she's really into Mr. Prep."
"Yeah, that's Gina(Gabby's girlfriend) Hang on. I'll be right back." Dinah looking
confused walked away. "Gina, what are you doing here? And who was that?" Dinah asked watching
Mr. Prep leave.
"That was Rico, and I think I'm in love with him. When gabby shows up tell her I had to go.
I can only think of Rico now," Gina replied in a dreamy tone.
"Ok, well, I have to go back to my table now. I see you in school." Dinah, even more
confused, walked back to Helena.
"Blondie while you were gone, I remembered why she looked familiar. Isn't that Gabby's
girlfriend? Why is she flirting with Preppy? I thought she was a lesbian."
"So did I . . . ad Mr. Prep has a name, its Rico, I don't know if that's first or last." Dinah
beamed, proud of her discovery.
"Girls," Baba interrupted again, "I hope you're done because Reese just activated the bat
ring. He's on the corner of New York and 8th Ave."
"Great," Dinah thought to herself, "our meals haven't even come yet . . . that means
Barbra's cooking when we get back. Oh well at least I finally get to go to a murder with Helena!"
"Come on, I guess we have to take the van. Damn, why wont Babs let me teach you how to
jump rooftops yet?"
"Look I'm sorry I can't fly like you all right?"
"Hey," said Helena cutting Dinah off, "I don't fly, I jump, I jump high, and I jump from
high and always land on my feet. Now lets go, get in the car."
********************************************************************
in the car on the way . . .
Dinah's thoughts
This is awesome. I am finally going to a scene. Thank god Helena took me out for Chinese with
her. Maybe if I don't get in the way and try to help, she even let me come on sweeps tonight! I can't
believe Reese had to activate the ring now. I am so hungry. How come he gets a ring any way? I'm
on the actual team and I JUST got my comm set, but he got a ring a few weeks ago. Whatever.
I can't believe Gina was flirting with that Rico guy . . . and then basically said screw Gabby I'm in
love with Rico . . . a guy. That's too weird for me, maybe if I see him around again I'll read his
mind . . . I shouldn't get in trouble, as long as Barbra doesn't find out.
Helena's thoughts
I can't believe he activated the ring when I was with Dinah. This better be a murder or something
because if he's just gonna ask me what time to meet him for coffee that would be so embarrassing,
especially since me and Dinah were just talking about the whole boyfriend thing. Why the hell is
Babs making me wait to teach Dinah to jump over rooftops, Batman (Helena shudders) wasn't a
meta but he could do it. This damn car goes so slow, and it figures we get stuck behind the slowest
sonofabitch in New Gotham, until cars are out of the picture Dinah is definitely NOT coming on
sweeps with me. That's it this guy is pissing me off.
"Dinah hold on to your seat."
"Why?"
"Cause this sonofabitch is going to slow."
"Ok(pause)Whoa!"Dinah yells as Helena pulls up onto the sidewalk and starts driving.
"What are you doing? Oh my god, you almost hit that old lady! Will you get back on the road? If I
die, I will come back to haunt you."
"Will you shut up? I do this all the time and I haven't hit anyone yet." Helena said as she
pulled on 8th Ave. "Stay in the car til I tell you to come out, k?"
********************************************************************
at the crime scene
Thank god it's a murder, Helena thought right before she asked Reese what happened.
"Her name's Angela Donner," the handsome cop told Helena, "she died the same way as the
girl last night."
"That's pretty weird. Do they have anything in common?"
"That's the weirdest thing. We can't find anything yet. (Loooooong pause as both Helena
and Reese look over the body) So are we still on for coffee?" Reese asked her, smiling.
Turning of her comm Helena, now Huntress, says, "yeah," then turns toward the van and motions
for Dinah to come out.
"Good, meet me at the little Italian place on Wayne Street, 9 o'clock," he said before Dinah
got there.
"Ok," said Helena looking at Reese, then she turned toward Dinah turned her comm back on
and said, "Do your stuff Blondie," as she moved her head toward the young women lying dead on
the street.
TBC
What will Dinah find in the girl's mind? Will Helena and Reese actually go out for coffee? What
was with Gina? Keep reading to find out...sorry again for the multiple posting! Please Read and
review I wont know weather or not to start a new piece and give up on this one or add chapter 3
unless you tell me.
