Helena continued her training; Barbara watched her in silence, the girl learns fast and she was as good as many other heroes that she knew. But her temperament, her temperament still worried her so much. The anger would blind her in any moment and she needed work on that. But the anger and the emotions was always the most difficult part to manage for any hero, until her. She had a lot of troubles when she began to be Batgirl. Barbara was working at her desk checking the work of some students; she liked it, it relaxed her. She heard a loud crash downstairs; she raised her head and took off her glasses, waiting. Silence. She waited a few seconds before she put her glasses back on and kept working.
Another loud sound was heard, Barbara raised her head and sighed.
"Helena, you need to hold the batarang and press it firmly with your fingers before you throw it!" she shouted.
"She is going to destroy all the ornaments downstairs." Alfred said walking in.
"Is she using the target?"
"Yes, but she hits everything except the target."
Barbara wheeled to the elevator and went down stairs. Helena was picking up some books of the floor and putting it on a desk. Barbara looked around, all was a disaster.
"I see you had been working:" she said.
"Is hard control this thing." Helena said raising the Batarang.
"Come here." Barbara extended her hand and Helena stood up and gave her the batarang. "the sharp of the batarang is a circle, is well balanced; you need use the presure of your fingers in the side that you want that it goes."
Barbara threw the batarabg and it hit the target, the top of some empty tins. It back to her hands. "See it?" she gave the batarang to Helena.
"Would be better a gun." The kid raised her brow.
"Helena."
"I was joking."
"Keep trying and don't broke anything." Barbara pointed her.
"It's boring." Helena mumbled.
Barbara looked at her in silence a few seconds. "Okay," she finally said. "I have an idea. Follow me."
"Where are we going?"
"Just follow me." suddenly Barbara groaned and leaned holding her right thigh.
Helena kneeled in fornt of her and looked her worried. "Barbara."
"It's okay, it's okay." she said clentching her teeth. "It's just a cramp in my leg."
"What.?" Helena felt confused, she wasn't supossed to feel.
"Oh." Barbara smiled in the middle of her pain "It happens sometimes."
"How's that?"
"Well, you see there are certain parts of the brain that allow you to feel in different parts of your body. Now even though my spine was damaged, the part of the brain that allows me to feel my legs is still working, so even though I can't actually move my legs, I can still feel them sometimes."
"It's confusing." Helena didn't understand what was happening.
"Yes I know it is. Let's go."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure; I'd like to see you in action."

Barbara took her to a lonely part of the city, in the dockyards. She wanted the girl to learn to calculate distances in her jumps. Helena was on the rooftop of a building and looked to the next one. She turned on her radio.
"I'm ready."
Barbara said. She was at the street, three floors below.
Helena ran and jumped between the two buildings, the distance was long. But she had two fails; she couldn't calculate the distances and she wasn't sure of her own skills yet. She moved her arms trying to catch the next building.
Helena tried to hold the cornice but she failed again, her body hit against the wall and bounced back. Barbara moved her head.
Barbara warned.
Helena moved faster and turned, she fell on her feet and rolled on the floor she stopped next to Barbara.
"Your landings still are awful." The red head said.
"It's just a small detail."
"You move your arms." Barbara explained.
"What?"
"Yes you move your arms with out control trying to kept the balance in the air. I saw you."
"Ok, I'll try it again." Helena jumped over the rooftop to try again.
The kid tried again but she couldn't, she fell over the rooftop of the building landing but this time was impossible turn on time and she fell over some garbage bags. Barbara observed her trying to not laugh. Helena stood up cleaning her clothes.
"I can't calculate well. why?"
"Because you are looking the border of the next building. You need see farther. If you limit your point of view you are limiting your capabilities. Try to see farther."
Helena jumped again to the rooftop. There she stepped back looking the next building.
"Barbara said, no limits, no limits," she said to her self "I need focus farther, farther. Okay, here I'll go."
Barbara looked up waiting, suddenly she saw Helena jumping, was an amazing jump. But something was wrong. She took her radio and turned it on. "Helena, be careful you jump using too much impulse."
She saw her disappear on the next building. She could hear a loud noise after a few seconds. Barbara moved her head and turned on again her walkie- talkie.
"Helena, it's okay don't look limits but at the same time you need avoid overpower your skills in a way that you can't control. Where are you now?"
Silence was the response.
"Helena can you hear me?"
Silence.
"Hel, we have so much work to do." Barbara just ear the silence on her radio again.
"I hope she is not hurt." Barbara sighed. She waited a few seconds and tried again "Hel. are you okay?"
Suddenly Helena fell next to her and rolled on the floor, a wood box next to the wall stopped her.
Barbara moved her head and said: "That was the worst of all your worst landings."
"Hey, it's hard to fall on my feet." Helena put her knees on the floor and looked at her.
"Why you didn't responded when I called you?" the red head asked.
"The radio broke with the fall." Helena raised a piece of it and stood up.
"Where did you fall?"
"It was cool!! In the building next to this one, are close; but I guess was a kind of a piper store because there were a lot of rooftops and I threw it to the floor. There was a big noise."
"Yes I heard that.. So you jumped.?"
"I guess almost 80 yards."
"Wow, that is terrific." Barbara felt surprised
"Yes!" Helena smiled.
"Well now we need focus on your jumps and landings." Barbara wheeled to the Hummer.
"Are we finished training? We just started!" Helena protested.
"With that noise the police will surely come here, how are we going to explain that we are here jumping between buildings? Let's go."
"Good point." Helena cleaned her clothes off again and followed Barbara.
