Part Two

Max watched Terry as he left her house with a slow step. She felt sorry for him. He did all those wonderful things for the city as Batman, and gets screwed over as Terry McGinnis. Max sighed. Poor Terry. He deserved better...

It was one thirty when Terry got home. He walked through the door to see his mom sleeping on the couch. The TV was showing static because of the late hours, and there was a plate with bits of food left on it. Terry assumed it was what was left of dinner.
Terry walked over to his mom and took the remote out of her hand. He switched the TV off and picked up the plate of food and put it in the kitchen. Not wanting to disturb his mom in her sleep, he got a blanket out of the hall closet and covered her with it.
Terry smiled and checked on Matt. He was sleeping in his room and had left his computer on. Terry turned it off and closed the window that had been left open. It was close to winter, and it was also getting colder faster. He didn't notice that when he'd walked into the room, the window had been closed.
Terry left Matt's room, and went into his own. There, he dropped his bag in his closet and collapsed in his bed, not bothering to get undressed. He was asleep for about five minutes before he heard the click.
Terry opened his eyes slowly, so that they were nothing but slits. He looked around his room without moving, and noticed nothing odd. Then he felt the draft.
Terry sat up in bed and looked around his room with his eyes wide open. He saw that nothing was out of place, nothing was missing. The only thing that was different than when he fell into bed was the window. It was open. He was sure that it had been closed when he'd walked in. Terry got out of bed and stood in the middle of his room. "Hello?" he asked, thinking somebody had broken in. Hearing no response, Terry spoke again. This time while walking to his window. "Anybody here?"
"Something wrong Terry?"
Terry spun around to see his mom in the doorway to his room. Her eyes were droopy from her sleep and she was wiping sand out of them. She yawned and stared quizzically at her son asking again, "Is something wrong?"
"Wrong?" Terry asked, closing his window. "No. Nothings wrong. Sorry for coming in late."
"Oh, that's okay. I'm used to it by now. Good night."
"Night mom," Terry said, watching her leave his room. He then closed his door and went to bed, making sure to change first. The thought of someone opening his window had completely left his mind.

Wondergirl breathed a sigh of relief when the window just above her head was pulled closed. She waited a few minutes to make sure everything was clear, and then floated off the ledge. She looked into Terry's room to see if he'd spotted her bug, and smiled when she saw that he'd fallen asleep. It'd been a close call. And she'd been lucky that he didn't notice her following him. Especially with all that had happened that night. Satisfied that her job was done, and done well, Wondergirl balanced on the building ledge once more and pushed off so she could get a decent start going on her flight back home. She did a few detours on the way, what with her being in joker territory and it being after midnight with citizens still walking around. Wondergirl smirked on her way home. The poor bat, he had no idea what he was in for.
