Superheroes 101: Grounded
Grounded....as in no friends, phone, tv, car OR sweeps. Barbara has never been so upset with me before--Not even after decking poor Gibby in class yesterday did she ban me from patrol. It all started because of mistaken idenity--and a rookie cop. Who some how knows Barbara. One Kayla Renee Black--she looks to be two years older then Helena. Anyway, here's how it all happened--Barbara had sent me to the west side of town on patrol.....
Sam ran through another puddle, grimacing as she did. Her new nikes wern't gonna survive tonoght..."Oracle, tell me again why Huntress is unavailable?"
"She's busy."
"As in ass whopping busy or bartending busy?"
"....Ass--what bartending? Huntress doesn't bartend!"
"Sure--and I'm Dorothy."
"Well this wizard is telling you to watch your mouth and to get back on the gray paved road."
"Haha..Whoa--I found our mugger." Sam said skidding to a halt outside an alley
"Well??"
"Well, it looks like someone asulted back."
"Where are you at?"
"Patterson and Walnut."
" I'm sending help."
"Uh, Oracle? He's not coming to--" Sam stated 5. min. later, waving her hand in front of the perps face
"Spitfire, get out of there--Cops and rescue will be there any minute."
" I can't just leave--wait, I hear sirens, I'll leave when they get here." Sam said turning, and walked right into Officer Kayla Black
"Little past your bed time isn't it?" Kayla asked, hands on her hips.
"Actually I'm on my way there now." Sam replied, stepping around her
"Uh huh, sure kid--your lying." Kayla said, eyeing the teenager warily
Sam couldn't believe what was going on, " Look officer, its the truth--besides, I'm one of the good guys here--and that creep deserved whatever he got."
Kayla pulled Sam's arm behind her back, "Your under arrest--" Suddenly Kayla was on her back staring up into Sams face.
" Look, I really think you should consider who your dealing with--I'm not your enemy, I'm your friend." Sam said walking away.
"Just who does this kid think she is?!" Kayla thought jumping up, pulling her .9mm as she did, "Freeze--Don't move!"
Sam turned around slowly, her hands held up. "Barbara's gonna kill me...."
At New Gotham P.D.
Kayla sighed as she finnished filling out the report--it had taken her 20 minutes to pry a name out of that kid--Samantha Grayson.Adoptid daughter of none other then the one woman her father held in high regaurd. The kid..Sam, had alot of potential--if she could just learn to channel it torwards something constructive.
"Kayla Renee Black!" Barbara demanded, interupting Kayla's thoughts
Kayla arose from behind the desk, "Barbara, over here."
Barbara wheeled over to the desk, taking in all the old framilar surroundings, "So tell me Kayla--what did she do? Why did you bring her here?"
"Look Barbara, I had no clue to who she was--Hell, it took me 20 minutes to get her name. the reason shes here is because she assulted an officer."
Utter disbelief flooded across Barbara's face, "Sam assulted an officer? who?"
" Me! She fliped me on my back, and she's goning to spend some time in juvinial detention for it!"
Barbara smiled, "Listen Kayla, Sam's a good kid, a little out of control at times, But her hearts in the right place--this won't never happen again, I promise--Now wheres the papers I need to sign?"
"Look Barbara,my father holds you in high regaurd--so do I, but thats no reason to let that potential delequint out!"
"I agree--she shouldn't have acted that way--but trust me, I know Samantha,after spending this little amount of time in a cell--you'll never see her in here again." Barbara suddenly looked worried, "It was a single cell...wasn't it?"
"Of corse--what do you think I'd do--place a 16 year old girl in with hardend crimminals? That hurts." Kayla replied, pulling the neseccary release forms out, signaling another officer over, "Hey, go bring out Grayson--cell 22." She turns back to Barbara, "here, sign these, He'll bring her out."
"Thank you Kayla." Barbara replied, signing the forms. Just as she was signing the last one she heard Sam's voice talking to the officer, "You should really fix those cots--someone gets cut and infection.."
Sam spotted Barbara, feeling slightly foolish she rushed over, "Barbara I'm so sorry....."
Kayla sliped into the crime lab, only to hear a knock 5 minutes later. "Enter."
Sam steps in, looking embarresed, "Uh..."
"You again!"
"Look, I just came in here to say I'm sorry for kicking your ass--no wait, I ment I'm sorry for flipping you--Oh Hell--I'm just sorry, ok?" Sam said stumbling over words, "And please don't hold this against Barbara--Its totally not her fault, and shes a great gardian...."
Kayla's face softened for a second, "Ok..Sam, your forgiven, on on condition though."
"What?"
"Stay out of the alleys---and let the force do their job."
"Awww...you know how to suck the fun out, don't ya?"
"That's life--hey, after high school,go to the acadamy, then you can play cop."
"And this is coming from one who got her butt kicked from a 16 year old." Sam grinned, "No offence, but you suck at hand to hand."
Kayla smiled, the kid had guts, that was for sure---" My speciality is guns--I'm a sharpshooter."
"Don't know much about guns--Barbara won't let me have one." Sam turned to leave, "Well, later."
"Bye...Sammie."
So I guess Kayla's not to bad after all. Helena's rubbing it in, calling me "Slammer Sammie" or suggesting I change my call sign to "Jailbird"--just wait, her day is coming, I'm sure. As for Babara--hopefully she'll forget all this soon and unground me--After all, Helena can't handle this city alone---
