Witness

Chapter 8

It was awhile before Ally went back to school/ About 2 weeks. She had to go to court, find a home, but since she was underage, the police had found her a foster home.

In court, Powers got life without parole for the murder of Ally's dad. His son, Derek Powers was to take over the company, but Ally knew Batman would watch over him too.

Ally still attended Hamilton Hill High, but everyone was still giving her suspicious looks. "I hope this will be over with son," she whispered while walking down the hall. Again she had on all black with black crosses and black make-up. A true Gotham Goth.

"It gets better," said a familiar voice behind Ally. It was Terry. "Hey you. How you doing?" she asked crossing her arms after she flicked her red hair. "Doing good. And you?" he asked. "I guess I'm fine. Sorry about all the trouble I caused you. Forgive me?" she asked.

"Sure," said Terry. "TERRY!" came a female voice from over Terry's shoulder. "Hi Dana," said Terry. She was followed by Max and Blade. "Where were you yesterday? Did you have to work?" she asked.

"Actually," interrupted Ally. "He's been helping me on a project," said Ally. "We ran late, but we got it done. Tanks Ter," said Ally. "UH...you're welcome," said Terry who was very happy he was baled out.

Ally smiled as she continued walking down the halls towards the cafeteria. "Want to walk with us?" asked max who put her shoulder on top of Ally's. "Sure," said Ally. Together al 5 of them walked to the cafeteria.

"So I guess we're good?" asked Terry who sat in between Ally and Dana. "Yes," said Dana. "We're good," replied Dana. "Ally? We good too?" he asked her.

Ally blushed a little. "McGinnis, don't count on me bailing you out al the time," said Ally. It's weird sitting next to Batman, she thought. "After all, I've got my whole life to life," she said with a smile before she dug into her chicken Caesar salad.
