Thanks to all my reviewers!! Here's your chapter.
Huntress strolled casually into the room, shoving her short, dark hair behind her ears.
"What's wrong?" she demanded. She stared at the kid, noting his confused expression.
"Never mind. Guys, we need to talk. Just a sec, kid." Huntress
said to the confused teen. "Dinah," she inquired when they were
safely out of earshot, "did you dream about this?"
Dinah shook her head, blond hair whipping her eyes. She remembered how useful her premonitions had been in finding a home.
"You guys, we should really let him stay," said Dinah. She pictured
the way his wavy black hair fell into his mesmerizing blue eyes and
sighed. Huntress grinned slyly.
"Yeah, that's a good idea. And I am so sure you're concerned only about his well being." Snorted Huntress.
"Okay, so he's really cute. That doesn't change anything!!" wailed Dinah. She stared at the other two women, who were looking at her disbelievingly.
"Well, it doesn't!"
" Sure Dinah. Why don't you go comfort him in his time of confusion?" suggested Huntress.
"Okay!" said Dinah, seeming cheered by the thought.
Ignoring the other women's snickers, she walked into the next room. The strange kid was lying on the ground, snoring very softly. That's when Dinah got her brilliant idea. She decided not to bother asking for permission. The way I figure it, they would just laugh again, she thought. Leaning forward, she tried to make sure she didn't wake him. Dinah took his hand, using her telepathy to try to figure out anything she could about his past.
Immediately, a rush of memories hit her. There were just so many! They came to her super fast, and before she fully understood one memory, she was seeing another. She gasped and dropped his hand, her heart pounding. It was hard to breathe, and she began hyperventilating. Frightened, Dinah struggled for breath. She tried to stop and ran for the door. A few feet away from it, she passed out.
"Dinah? Dinah!"
"Huh?"
Dinah awoke to find Oracle and Huntress standing over her. She didn't remember why she was lying there or what had just happened. It hit her in a flash.
"Oh," she gasped, "I read his mind to see where he was from." She paused, puzzled. "But I don't remember what I saw. All I remember is a ton of memories hitting me all at once."
"Has that ever happened before?" asked Huntress, taking advantage of Oracle's stunned silence.
"Yes," responded Dinah, "but never so strong. It was like he was from another planet!"
From behind them, the women heard a groan. The cute stranger was sitting up and holding his head. "Do you have any aspirin?" he moaned.
"Indeed we do, sir," came the butler's voice, "Let us go get some, shall we?" He led him away from the girls.
"Thank goodness for Alfred," commented Huntress, " what if he had heard you, Dinah?"
"So? What if he had?" Dinah queried, "we could have said I was talking about my favorite TV show!"
"Girls! Quiet!" commanded Oracle. "Helena, he didn't hear Dinah, and Dinah, why must you whine about every little thing!" Oracle rarely lost her temper, but when she did, everyone listened.
Suddenly, the mysterious teen came zipping down the stairs.
"I remember something!" he shouted.
Remember, Helena is Huntress, Barbara is Oracle, and your reviews keep me writing.
