Superheroes 101: Survival of the fitist
Augh--my head, no make that my whole body, hurts.I'm stuck here in bed, looking
worse then a scarecrow at Halloween. Barbara won't let me move or get out of bed--and forget sneaking out-She has cammras watching me. I had to bribe Alfred to bring me me this. Barbara and Kayla threw fits when I asked for my textbooks
and laptop. Who would have figured-- the Gurus of education, refusing me educational tools! Helena won't come in here and see me--she blames herself for what happened.I'm getting mad at her-she can't always save people.She found me 1 street over from where her mom was killed at--and she carried me all the way back home to the clocktower.Alfred said I was pretty beaten up, God I feel like it too--All I want is my semi normal life back..I can't believe I was so stupid in the first place--I should have listened to Barbara and not turned my comms off......
The streets where empty as a warm breeze blew slightly, a few rain drops fell, warning the few people outside of the inpending storm was about to cut loose.
"Alright Spitfire, head back--you have an early class tommorrow."
"I know that,but somehow I don't believe the sleeze bags of this city give a dam.hoot, about if I make it to my class or not."Sam stated, walking back torwards the clocktower
"Well, bad guys or not,get your butt home missy!" Barbara replied laughing "Its getting ready to down poor."
"Noduh, O wise one-- I'm already getting wet!"Sam retorted smirking, "I'm on my way now, see ya soon."
"Just for that Spitty,your going to trian extra tonight!" Barbara threatend lightly
"OOhhh--I'm so scared! SPITFIRE out." Sam said, infasizing on "Spitfire" knowing it would make Barbara laugh, turning her comm off as she continued down the street watching the storm roll in. "Funny, storms resemble my life in so many aspects--angry, violent, constinally changing, calm.."she thought, walking
past the P.D
"Help! Help me please!"
"Great, its raining and someones singing my theme song." Sam said outload, taking off in a run torwards the plea, "Great--its coming from that alley--sheesh, how original...."Glancing up she spotted an old fire escape, "Here's my entrance or the seal on my death certificate." she thought, walking across the narrow metal platform. the crying had become low sobbing with wimpers now.. Sam jumped down, landing a few feet from a young woman--"Hey, its ok now, I'm going to get you-" Sam sank to her knees as something hit her from behind-recovering quickly, she jumped up, whirling around, to stare down the wrong end of a .38 special--"Oh shit..this is not good..." Sam droped into a defence stance, her hand going for her comm-
"Looking for this? I'm afraid your friends can't help you this time." Danny "Killer" Capone stated, Sam's comm choker dangling from his finger tips. "I've been watching you-- You've helped ruin one to many of my buisness arrangements." 'Killer' smirked, whistling sharply, "Boy's, lets leave the great Oracle a preasent."
Sam glanced around as 6 guys came out of the shadows,"Oh great--this is soo not good-" Sam gritted her teeth, "No way in hell I'm going down with out a fight." She thought, sending one of the guys into the wall-"One down, 5 to go." whirlling around she heard a disticive "snap" and sank into darkness....
5 hours later....
"Oracle to Huntress."
Helena sighed, giving the guy at the counter a brief smile,"Be right with ya." walking over to a quiet part of the bar," I'm here, whats up?"
"Its Sam--She's not here."
"So? She's 18 Oracle, she's probably at no mansland."
"I checked--Gibson hasn't seen her since 9."
"Try her comm? what about Kayla?"
"She's offline-Kayla hasn't seen her. Trust me Huntress,I've run down every lead.'
"Where was she last at?"
"Near Maple, she was on her way back 5 hours ago."
"If I find her at a friends or if she got locked in the libary again I'm gonna kill her..." Helen muttered under her breath, while plastering a sappy smile on her face, walking over to leonard, "Leonard, I need to leave--"
"Absolutly not Kyle! I'm short handed as it is!" He exclaimed, not letting her finish
"Look, its an emergency, my kid sister is missing-Please!" Helena begged, trying hard not to deck the sorry jerk, "Please Leonard, as soon as I find her I'll come back, I swear."
"Fine, go--but I'm docking your pay."
"Asshole." Helena replied under her breath, dashing outside- "Oracle -any new leads?" she asked, leaping onto the nearest rooftop
"No--Kayla's on her way here now, she wants to help."
"NO! we don't need miss "detective snoop"in the clocktower!"
"Calm down Huntress--she won't be in the controll room--besides, our "night" job won't be revield--you have nothing to worry about."
"You aways say that, and then something always happens!"
10 minuets later...
Kayla paced inside the elevator,"Why can't this damn thing go any faster??" she thought as the doors opened, "Barbara,where are you? Have you heared anything yet?" she asked walking into the room.
"Here--" Barbara answered, wheeling in from the kitchen, "And the answer is no- Helena's out looking for her now--I had hoped she had called you."
"She hasn't. I've called in every low life street rat I know Barbara, no ones seen her...."
Across town near Maple......
"No Gibson, stay there--she might come back--AUGH! If you call me peach pit one more time your gonna wind up missing next!" Helena retorted, hanging up on him, "Man, why do I..." hearing a low moan come from an alley she stoped, walking in--her eyes adjusting instantly to the damp darkness to see a form laying on the ground, barely moving--Sam, beaten and drifting in and out of concousesness. "Oracle, I found her-and get your stuff ready, shes hurt really bad..."
Thats it, I barely remember Helena finding me--All I know after those creeps knocked me out is what Alfreds told me. I woke up 2 days later with a tibula/fibula fracture to my right leg, multiple stitches to various body limbs and a bullet wound to my left side. Dick called, after Barbara called him of corse. Kayla's visting me every afternoon. Barbara watchs me like I'm gonna disapeir at any moment--Helena...well, I wrote earlier what she was acting like. Anyway, I'm home. I'm Alive. And as soon as I'm off these crutches I'm finding who did this to me and what they have against Barbara.
