Wayne Tower 6:00 pm
Aquagirl P.O.V.
I'm really nervous to be honest, we were going meet our parents. Who were members of the Justice League, all we were waiting for was Redwing and Shadow and their mentors. All of the sudden the was a flash of black, and standing there was Shadow with Redwing on her back. "I will never get use to that." Shadow said smiling. Redwing fell to the ground cause of the sudden stop.
"Neither will I," Redwing said standing back up.
"When did you get powers?" Martian asked Shadow.
"A couple of years ago." Shadow said walking over to KF.
"Wait Redwing shows you hers." Shadow said.
"You've had powers!" Hawkboy said in shock.
"No I just got them last week." Redwing said.
"Well show them to us," Hawkboy commanded.
"Wait till the mentors get here." Shadow said, just as Batman, Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, and Renegade jumped on the roof.
"I was really hoping it would take you longer." Redwing commented.
"Are you going to show us or not?" Renegade asked impatiently. Redwing walked to the middle on the roof.
"Wings out!" She shouted, her bracelet started to glow. The next thing we new Redwing had wings and a new costume. She was wearing black combat boots, black pants with a yellow stripe on the bottom of them, on the black belt was a sword. She was wearing a red shirt that went down to her stomach, on top of that was a black that had a red bat on each shoulder. Her mask was now red, her hair was in a braid she had a red highlight in her bangs. She was had fingerless gloves. Everyone stared at her in shock. Hawkboy stepped up to her, "H-How?" Was all he got out.
"Honestly I have no idea." She turned to Red Hood who was smiling.
"You knew!" Redwing exclaimed.
"Your mother told me when she brought you to me. She just never told me when." Red Hood said.
"Does this mean I can still be on team?" Redwing asked.
"Yes it does... And I like this outfit a lot better than the other one." Red Hood commented.
"Now come on we have to go." Red Robin said taking off, everyone followed but Redwing and I. I turned to Redwing she was trying to fly it wasn't working to well.
"Stupid wings."
"Can't fly yet?" I asked she smiled at me.
"I haven't had time you try them out yet." Redwing said folding her wings back.
"They do know they left us right?" I asked.
"Wait for it..." Redwing said holding up her hand. Martian and Hawkboy flew up from nowhere.
"Sorry Aquagirl." Martian said picking me up.
"It's okay."
"Need any help Red?" Hawkboy asked holding a hand out for Redwing.
"Just a little." She said smiling. I feel like I've seen her before.
Hawkboy P.O.V.
I pulled Redwing up a bit. She started to flap her wings and we were in the air flying over Gotham. I was still holding her hand as we followed everyone one. I liked Redwings new costume a lot more than her old one. Redwing reminded me of someone... I pulled Redwing's hand so that she was flying right next to me, she was looking down at the city, smiling.
"I never thought I'd see Gotham from this view." Redwing said creating a mind link.
"My first thought when I flew of Gotham was 'I'm free!'" I said laughing.
"Hey could you teach me how to fly Hawkboy?" She asks I look at her.
"Sure, first lesson how to land." I think, I gently pulled her to the ground. I landed on the ground first and held out my other hand out. She was about to grab it when her wings stopped, she started to fall. Next thing I new I was on the ground.
"Ow. That didn't go how I planned." Redwing said.
"Um.. could... you maybe get off me... I can't breath." I said gasping for breath.
"Sorry Hawk." Redwing said getting up. I sit up to find Redwing wing offering me a hand. I took her hand, we were in an alley that had a phone booth in it. Martian set Aquagirl down, everyone else was already there. Batman opened the phone booth, stepped in and closed the door.
"Batman B01" A computer voice said.
"Okay who wants to go first?" Nightwing asked. We all back up except Shadow.
"Guys it fine, its a zeda tube. Its going to take us to Mount. Justice." Shadow said stepping in the phone booth.
"Shadow B27" The computer says. KF steps up and goes in, then Aquagirl, Martian, Redwing, I step in next. I close my eyes as I feel myself being teleported to Mount Justice.
"Hawkboy B32." The computer goes off again, I open my eyes. My eyes go wide as I step out of the tube. Standing in front of us was the Flash and Artemis, Aquaman and Rocket, Superboy and Ms. M, Hawkman and Hawkwoman.
"Mom!" Shadow shouted running to a masked woman. Redwing grabbed my hand and pulled me toward Hawkman and Hawkwoman.
"Hawkman, Hawkwoman. I would like you to meet Hawkboy." Redwing said smiling at them. Hawkwoman stepped forward.
"Would you please leave us?" Hawkman asked Redwing she nodded. I pulled her back.
"Their good people Hawkboy. Trust me," Redwing says smiling at me. I let go of her hand and turn back to Hawkwoman and Hawkman.
"Jake?" Hawkwoman asked, I looked at her in surprise. Jake get back here! I remember a woman's voice. Then it me these were my parents.
"Mom." I say, Hawkwoman pulls me into hug. I hug back then Hawkman joins.
Redwing P.O.V.
I watched everyone get reunited with their families. I sighed, They are going to leave Gotham. I know I'll get to see them again, but... I think to myself. Shadow would be leaving with her mom and I would be a lone again. Going to a school where almost everyone hates me. I felt a hand on my shoulder, I turned and looked at Shadow. She pulled me into a hug, "I'm not going anywhere sis." She whispered into my ear.
"Thanks." I whisper back.
"Okay. So who wants a tour?" Red Robin asked. Red Robin shows us the training room, gym, showers, kitchen, living room and spare rooms. Red Robin was letting us chose our rooms, my room was between Shadow's and Aquagirl's room. Directly across the hall was Hawkboy's room, across from Shadow's room was Kid Flash's room. Across from Aquagirl's was Martian. We walked back to the training room once we were done.
"Here you go." Nightwing said as he passed out wrist computers.
"What are these for?" Hawkboy asked confused.
"Their for when you get done with your training." Red Hood told him.
"We don't need training. We could go kick butt right now we're so ready." KF said.
"He's definitely your kid Baywatch." Artemis said elbowing Flash.
"I disagree. We do need training, to learn how to act like a team. The fight on Wayne Tower, who had Hawkboy's back or Redwing's. And Redwing she almost died, if it hadn't been for Hawkboy she wouldn't be here. I don't think any of us would would be here." Shadow told Kid Flash.
"We do need more training, Redwing went up against a woman who was at least 2 times better than her." Aquagirl said.
"Hey I'm right here!" I say acting a fended.
"But no I agree with Shadow and Aquagirl, we need more training if we want to even have a chance." I said stepping up.
"Oh come on you're all teaming up on me." Kid Flash wines.
"Sorry Kid I have to agree with the girls." Hawkboy says walking up to me and putting he's arm around me. I look up at him in surprise.
"So not cool HB." KF says crossing his arms. I smile at him.
"M?" KF says.
"Sorry Kid Flash. I have to agree with Aquagirl on this on." M says walking over to AG.
"You will have training at 5 am every other day. Artemis will be training you." Batman says walking up behind Red Hood.
"5 am!" M, KF, and Hawkboy shout. Shadow and I started laughing at the boys' expressions.
"Get use to it boys." I say and continue laughing.
"Come on Redwing, Shadow we need to get going I have something to show you." Red Hood said heading to the zeda tubes.
"See ya tomorrow guys." Shadow says as she steps in.
"Bye." I say and follow. Hawkboy grabs my arm, I look back at him.
"What's the matter Red?" He asks.
"Nothing, it's just... I finally met someone who knows that I'm not crazy because of the life I live. I just found you and now your going to live with Hawkman and woman." I say feeling hurt, Hawkboy pulls me into a hug.
"You will never lose me and I will never leave you. None of us are going to live with our parents. We're all staying in Gotham, we're all being hunted and I'm not leaving you to deal with it by yourself." Hawkboy says, I'm in to much shock to respond. He sounds so much like Jake, I hug him tighter.
"Thank you HB." I whisper, I let go of him and walk to the zeda tubes.
"See ya later." I wave as I say good bye. I find myself in surrounded in light and back in the phone booth. I step out and look at Shadow.
"Come on we're going to the new apartment." Jason says, we jump in the car and change into civilian clothes before heading to the new apartment. 5 minutes later we pull up to a gate, there was a metal fence around the entire property. The house was mostly white with a bit of gray, there was a porch and a balcony in the front. The house wasn't very far from the manor.
"I thought we were moving to an apartment." I say in confusion.
"The apartment wasn't big enough for three people." Dad said smiling.
"I'm guessing the basement will be used for a certain purpose." Sofia said smiling.
"Yes, we will be using it as a training room and a place to hold weapons." Dad says getting out of the car. Sofia and I get out of the car and follow my dad. He opens the door and we walk into the living room. It had two long couches, a flat screen tv, and a coffee table. The kitchen had an island with some stools, lots of cupboards and counter space. The dinning room had a table that could sit seven people. The basement stairs were near the bathroom and guest bedroom. I walked up the stairs to the second floor, there were four doors the one closest to the stairs was the bathroom and the other three were bedrooms.
"Alex your bedroom is the one at the end of the hall. And Sofia yours is next to Alex's." Dad said walking up the stairs. I opened the door to my room. It was a good size room the bed was on the right wall with the closet. On the wall in front of me was a window seat with a book shelf on each side filled with books, a desk was on the left wall along with a dresser. I sat down by the window and opened them, there was a little platform that could hold a person. I could already see Hawkboy landing on it and knocking the window. The windows were big enough for a person to walk through.
"Alex we're going to head to the manor to grab the rest of our things." My dad says opening the door. I walk back down stairs and jump in the car, we ride back to the manor. I run up to my room and close the door, I grab the gift that Jake had gotten me and put it in the bag. I start to put the things I brought to the Manor in my bag.
"Don't tell me your running away." I hear Hawkboy's voice behind me. I smile and shake my head.
"Nope, I'm moving back to New York." I say smiling, I hear Hawkboy fall.
"What!" He says getting back up.
"I'm joking Hawk. I'm moving a couple of minutes away. 208 Broadway street." I say turning to look at him.
"Good, because I did not want to fly all the way to New York." Hawkboy says smiling at me.
"Ohh you do care." I say putting my hand on my chest.
"So what's in the box that I saw that boy give you?" Hawkboy asked.
"What are you my stalker? I don't know, I can't open it till friday." I say smiling.
"Do you like him?" Hawkboy asks me.
"You know I don't know. I mean I kissed him and now we're going to the dance together. Most people would think I like him... But I've trusted people that act like him. They respect me and then they stab me in the back. I... I'm just being careful... I don't want to be hurt again..." I say, I look up at Hawkboy. He grabs my hands.
"I will tell you this if he hurts you... if anyone hurts you, I will personally go and hurt them." Hawkboy says brushing my bangs to the side.
"What's his name?" He asks, tilting my head up.
"Jake Hawk..." I say looking into his eyes. I couldn't see them but I knew there was something familiar behind them. He started to lean in, I found myself leaning into.
"Alex!" I heard my dad shout from outside the door. I looked at the door then back at Hawkboy, but he was gone.
"Coming!" I shout back and grab my bag.
Hawkboy P.O.V. 7:00 pm
I pushed myself against the wall by Alex's window. I can't believe I almost kissed her... I thought as I stood on the ledge. I heard her bedroom door shut. I walked to the front of the ledge to see Alex get in the car, I decided to follow her to find where she lived. Five minutes later they pulled up to a white and gray house, I land in a tree near the house, Alex and Anna ran into the house. Jason got of the car and looked in my direct I ducked behind a branch, Jason shakes his head and walks inside. I see a window open and Alex looked in my direction and smiled.
"Some people would think your a stalker." She said looking at me.
"How'd you know I was here?" I asked landing on the platform.
"I saw you following the car earlier on the way here. And your really bad at hiding." She said moving back from the window so I could come in.
"You know it's weird... I hang out with a superhero more than I do with my new friends." Alex said smiling as she sat down on her bed.
"Oh.. Is that boy who gave you the gift your boyfriend?" I ask, smiling.
"Wouldn't you like to know." She said her smile fading.
"Actually to tell you the truth I don't know what we are." She said then scoffed.
"And here I am telling a guy with hawk wings all about my personal life... You probable don't even care." She says turning away and grabbing her bag she pulls out the gift I got her and puts it on the desk.
"Your wrong... I do care and I'm here if you need me." I say leaning against the book shelf.
"... Why are you here Hawkboy?" Alex asks me, I look at her surprised.
"I mean you saved me. You're job was done... and yet you keep coming back... And there's something about you, something familiar about you." She said walking up to me.
"Is it a good familiar?" I ask.
"I don't know yet... Why did you come back" She said getting closer. I take a step back.
"At first I just wanted to make sure you were okay... But there was something about you. I told myself that I would never let anyone hurt you... and if they did they were dead." I say jumping back on the platform, I look back at Alex and something catches my eye. Her bracelet... it was just like Redwings. I don't show the surprise on my face.
"See you later Alex." I say and fly off.
