Liz walks over to the couch, she starts to fall asleep, "That battle took a lot out of her" Drake and everyone looks at Ben, "What!?"
"Nothing," said Drake, "I'm keeping an eye on you, so don't try anything stupid" Drake looks at Ben then watches Liz.
"You care for her, don't you?"
"I'm in love with her," he pauses, "Its forbidden to love another element, if I fall in love with her or any other element something bad happens to me" He turns away and walks over to a chair and sit down
"Oh, that's stinks," said Helena, "Just to tell you love bites!" Everyone sorta agree on that, but Helena needs to keep her voice down, because her cousin is sleeping, she turns to Barbara on her lowest voice, "What about the Joker?"
"We wait for that tomorrow, we need our rest, but we can't sleep, because of Ben"
"I heard that," replied Ben
***
"Grrrrrr! He is a traitor! A traitor! I shouldn't trusted him!" said The Joker, looking down in the fountain
"You should never trust Ben, he cares for the elements, that is destroying our cult, and especially he's our leader," said a member of the 'Acolytes'
"How did he break out of my spell? That spell is soooo impossible!"
"Not to Ben..also love destroys every spell, don't you read your history books?" said the man
"Shut up!" The Joker throws a knife and stabs the person in the head and it goes all the way through the skull, almost like butter.
***
Liz is dreaming, that she running through the forest, as a black panther and then her dream switches that she is flying in the sky as a red tailed hawk, each minute of her dream; it switches to different animals..it keeps on going on and on...
Around 12noon, Liz wakes up and looks around, everyone is talking to each other and Barbara is on her computer the usual, she stands up and looks around, she kind of getting a headache, "Barbara do you got like any aspirin?"
"Why?" Barbara sounds kind of concerned
"I have a headache"
"Was it from last night?"
"No, I woke up, now I'm getting a massive headache!"
"Did you hit your head hard? When you were battling Ben?"
"No, she didn't," said Ben walks out of the elevator, holding a cheeseburger in his hand and is eating it, "boy, this cheeseburger is good"
"Barbara, Ben tried like almost every kind of food in New Gotham," said Dinah, "And he doesn't have the thirst for blood"
"It kind of feels good," he looks at Liz and she doesn't look to good, "are you alright?"
She covers her mouth and she ran upstairs to the bathroom and she starts to throw up in the toilet.
"I will get Drake," said Dinah and she rushes out of the main HQ of the clock tower and she enters the back room and she sees Drake reading, "Drake, I think something is wrong with Liz"
Drake quickly stands up and he hurries out of the room, he looks at Barbara, "She is upstairs in the bathroom" he nods and he went upstairs and he sees her on the floor and Helena is beside her, making sure she doesn't throw up or worse.
"You ok?" He said to her and he walks closer towards her. She doesn't respond and he turns to Helena, "Helena?"
"We don't know what is wrong with her, she has a massive headache, she vomiting, she is dizzy and me and everyone thinks she has a high risk to get a seizure."
He nods and he kneels down, "Liz, tell me what happened between the clock tower and you waking up this afternoon"
"I-I-I.was dreaming..."
"Of what?" Helena turns her head at Liz, thinking maybe this 'dream' must caused this abnormal sickness or whatever.
"Of many different animals, my dream show like every animal on the planet, including dinosaurs and mythical creatures...it felt so real"
Ben stands at the doorway, "She is learning a new power"
Drake turns his head at Ben, "How?"
"She is getting the symptoms"
"How do you know about this?" said Helena, as she looks up at Ben
"Let's say, I been studying about metahumans for a long time..remember my life is kind of twisted"
"That would probably explains everything," said Drake
"What!? What can you say? I don't have a life"
"We already kind of figured that out," he said in a sarcastic way
Liz starts to shake, it's not a seizure, and she is transferring into her first form.
Helena stands up and she looks down at Liz, "Drake? She shifting" she points down at Liz and she starts to shift shape into an animal, it's not clear in what she is shifting into.
"Whoa..."
"Somebody, gotta get the muzzle," said Ben, Drake turns to Ben, "What!? First form of animal shifting, they get really vicious, I had a friend that was an animal shift shape"
"A friend?" said Helena
"Not really, he's dead..."
"Don't say it, I think I know what you did," said Drake
"You're right on target"
They stop talking and look down at Liz, they can't help her yet, till they know what her first form is, finally she shift shape into a black panther and she circles around the bathroom.
"Liz?" said Helena softly
Liz looks up at Helena and she hissed at her, she walks back, staring at Helena, Ben, and Drake and she continues to hiss, she starts to show her razor sharp teeth and starts to swat at them, "You better get that muzzle!"
"Shut up!" Drake punches Ben in the face and it knocks him out cold Drake turns to Liz, "Liz, calm down...don't go into your animal instinct, try to concentrate to get back to human form"
She ignores Drake and she starts to hiss and swat at Helena, Helena is kind of close toward Liz, "Drake, it's not working" Liz is now into a position to pounce or to attack.
"Helena, back up slowly..." Helena nods and she starts to back up slowly, she still looks at Liz in the eyes, "Keep staring at her, proving to her, that your not afraid of her, no making swift movements, keep following my orders, if you don't she will strike"
Dinah yells from downstairs, "Helena!!! We got news!"
"Oh crap!" said Drake and Helena quietly and they turn down to Liz and she jumps in the air and starts to maul Helena, Drake grabs Liz and tries to hold her down, Liz is easily overpowering Drake and Drake looses his grip on her and she breaks free and runs out of the room. "Dinah! Barbara!" Drake quickly helps Helena off the ground and they starts to follow Liz.
Dinah sees Liz charging her at full speed and she uses her TK on her, holding her in the air.
Drake sees Liz floating in the air, by Dinah's TK, "Keep her there..we need to calm her down"
"It's Liz?" said Barbara
"She learned a new power and to needs control it, she needs to be calm and hopefully doesn't go into her animal instinct, when using it"
"Let me try," said Helena, she walks over to Liz, "Liz, this is you, would you want to attack your friends? Because you are an animal shift shaper? You won't because you don't want to hurt anyone, do you want to learn to control it?" She meows, "good, just concentrate" Liz starts to concentrate and she shifts back to human form..clothed btw. Helena signals to Dinah to release her and she slowly puts her onto the floor.
"Helena...thanks.."
"Your welcome..I'm been thinking since we can help you control your new power...maybe we can defeat The Joker easily"
"Sounds good..but how do we get to him, to come here?" said Barbara
"Ben," said Helena and Drake quietly, so Ben can't hear them
