A week later
My legs gave out from under me and I collapsed to the ground, shaking from exhaustion. I was training yet again, because apparently Iggy thought that I still wasn't ready to go on a job yet, when he had just said I was!
He was seriously starting to get on my nerves!
My legs had stopped shaking so, pushing off the ground as hard as I could, I stood up. They still hurt, but if I wanted to help them, I would have to live with it.
One of the targets caught my eye, an arrow was sitting in the bulls-eye, but yet another arrow another split it right down the middle. Shuffling I made my way over to the amazing sight. My back popped as I bent over to see, loud and annoying.
"You know yoga would probably help that.." The noise startled me so much that it caused me to fall down straight on my bum. Spinning around so fast it gave me whiplash I looked up and glared at Iggy behind me.
He had this cocky little grin on his face, probably happy that he had snuck up on me. He was the only one that could. In response to his little 'joke' I flicked him off and shakily stood to my feet, making sure to glare at him the entire time.
Iggy shook his head, the lights of the room glinting off his highlights, making them stand out even more than usual.
"Hurry up and get suited up! Your coming with us!" My jaw slowly slid open, was he serious? Scrambling forward I wrapped my arms around his waist and hugged him as tightly as I could.
"Thank you thank you thank you! You wont regret this I promise!" He patted my back slowly, "Sure kid.."
Kid? Did he just call me KID! He was only two years older than me! Unwrapping my arms I sidestepped around him, making sure that I glared at him the entire time.
Running faster than the Flash (I wish) I raced to my room and bolted towards the door that held my costume. Unfortunately karma decided to be a bitch and made me fall flat on my face, centimeters away from my target.
Groaning I peeled my face off the carpet and pulled myself back up. Finally my hand was on the doorknob and, pulling, the door swung open to reveal... nothing. Or at least it looked like nothing. Slowly my hand made its way to the center of the wall, then I applied pressure and pushed down.
The wall slid back to reveal a large glass case, complete with my costume inside. Grinning like a kid in a candy store I grabbed it and threw it on my bed. I stripped out of my training clothes and in no time at all I had on my villain attire.
Glancing towards my door I quickly checked to make sure no one was there then I hurried towards the bathroom. Moving so that I was standing in front of the mirror I cleared my throat. Then I tried my best evil laugh, "Muahahahahahaha!" Not the best but not the worst I have ever heard, my inner judge thought. Spinning around I raced out and hurried to the dining hall, the self proclaimed meeting place.
Everyone was there, and everyone but me was in their full on look. I still needed to put on my mask and my wig. My eyes took in at what everyone was wearing.
Xander had on a black tee shirt and black jeans. His purple hair had also been pulled back into a black bandanna and he had those black stripes under his eyes. The huge black glasses he wore were still on his face as well. His shoes seemed to be these cross between ballerina slippers and toms, like slippers yet not slippers, its hard to explain.
Bella was wearing a dark red sundress and had a medical kit in her hands. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail and she had on sandals for her shoes. She looked normal, but then again she was supposed to stay on the sidelines and not in the path of fire.
Nick had on these ridiculous red pants and a white long sleeve tee shirt with red designs on the sleeves. Over that he had on a red vest and red combat boots. Over his short brown hair was a red fedora, and his green eyes were covered in a red domino mask.
And finally Iggy, he had on no mask, I guess he didn't fear about people finding out about his identity. He was braver than I would ever be for that. If the police were to know that I was on a team with super villains I would be hunted down by my foster parents, day and night. He had on a Kevlar jacket, red with golden racing stripes, and Kevlar pants to match. The jacket was unzipped to show off a black tee shirt with a flame design in the middle, and his shoes were black Kevlar as well. His entire ensemble was fireproof, impressive.
"Is everyone ready to go?" Iggy asked, he glanced at everyone costume, I could see it in his eyes that he was worried, but then again everyone probably was.
"Alright then, lets head off!" Iggy spun around and started to walk off towards the exit. My eyes darted to Bella's before following in his footsteps. Quickening my pace I was able to catch up to Iggy in a matter of moments.
"So... Inferno huh? Cool.. so what are we gonna do today huh? Rob a bank? Take some hostages? Kick good guy butt!" Practically bouncing off the walls I grabbed onto Iggy's arm to calm myself down. He sighed and peeled my fingers off of his arm.
"We are going to be infiltrating a lab, someone dropped off a note saying that they needed us to get some sort of kryptonite for them or something. Its in CADMUS so we will have to be careful, supposedly the League of losers are guarding it. Does that answer your question?" he raised an eyebrow and looked down at me.
Smiling I nodded my head and started humming as we approached the Wall. Stopping we both turned and waited for the rest of the team.
Hurry up! I wanna leave already! My toe started tapping and I crossed my arms. When they finally met us back up I spun around and pushed on the brick that would let us leave. The wall slid open and I jumped out, not bothering to look back and see if the rest of the team followed.
I tilted my head up towards the night sky,"So how are we gonna get there?" All of them shared a glance and I got the distinct feeling of being left out of the group. Its not a pleasant feeling.
"This way, hurry up but don't trip this time!" Iggy gave me a teasing smile and started jogging off down the alley. I waited for everyone to go ahead of me and jogged off behind them.
The full moon made everything sparkle, even the sewer water. I could see easily, and when I glanced down at a puddle as I ran by, I saw that my eyes were glowing brightly. Which was most likely why I could see as good as I did.
Finally we arrived at wherever we were supposed to be, some sort of park I guess. But the grass was higher than my calf, and all of the sides and swings were rusted and had vines growing around them. The entire place looked...abandoned.
Iggy slowly walked to the middle of the playground then waved his arm in front of his body. What was he doing? He looked crazy. All of a sudden his hand hit something. Smiling he reached forward and started moving his hands down the length of the invisible object.
After a couple of moment of that he seemed to find what he was looking for cause he grabbed something and jerked it open, a door. There was an invisible car right in the middle of the spooky playground.. AWESOME!
"Hurry up! We cant be late!" everybody piled in and I was forced to sit right in between Xander and Bella, with Nick sitting in shotgun. Because, "If a car hits us he can just phase through it." Ugh the jerks.
It only took us about an hour to get there, but we almost got hit ten times. The entire time the car was filled with my curses and profanities as we narrowly swerved to avoid being a small speed bump on the road.
When the car came to a halt and Iggy unlocked the doors I was the first one out. I threw myself on the ground and just laid there, happy nothing was coming at me head on at 70 miles per hour.
"I didn't drive that bad so stop being so dramatic and get up!" glaring at him I slowly pulled myself up off the safe ground and huddled around Xander who had yet another floor plan.
"Ok this is the lower levels of CADMUS, highly classified so don't tell anyone we have this. Now we are going to get in by Nick, he is gonna phase us down to the 25 floor, this is where the kryptonite is. Now as soon as all of us are down there we need to spread out and find where its being held. Once you find it make sure to contact the rest of the team. We will converge on the location and grab it and leave the way we came! Everyone got the plan."
Nodding I looked over the map once more, if I was a piece of kryptonite where would I be...
"Ok then lets move in!"
Everyone stood up and I quickly followed their example. As soon as we were all up Iggy started to lead us towards the giant building in front of us. My hands were shaking, but I was trying to control my breathing. The night was cold and I could see my breath, if I breathed to much the heroes might be able to see it.
Ugh I was becoming paranoid, I slowly let out my breath and calmed down. My hands stopped shaking, my breathing slowed, and my body became relaxed. It felt good, I am the Master of my own body! A smug smile worked its way on my face and I looked around carefully.
A small flash went by out of the corner of my eye and I just barely tiled my head so I could see that way better. There was nothing there. My smug smirk dropped off my face and I replaced it with a scowl. I didn't need to be hallucinating at a time like this!
Moving forward with determination I made my way up to stand on the right side of Iggy, then I dropped back a little bit. I was in the beta position, cool! When we finally reached the building I melted into the shadows that lined the wall.
My eyes wandered around the lot, if there was anyone here I wanted to be able to see them. Narrowing my eyes to get a better view I scanned the trees, was that a glint of metal, or just the moonlight against the branches. If only I was closer!
I watched as the rest of my team quickly broke through the lock on the outside of the building. Iggy swung open the door and stepped inside, his hands alight.
The rest of the team followed him and after Xander stepped inside I quickly slipped in and shut the door behind me. Once inside I locked the door, then I proceeded to pulled out my laser and seal it shut. Nick could always phase us through later.
Turning around I hurried to catch back up with my team. They were already down the hall and Nick was holding Iggy, preparing to phase him back down. Iggy looked up at me gave me a small smile, then Nick phased down through the floor.
Bella sat down with Xander and they both set to work setting up the comm units. After a couple of minutes they looked at me and mouthed, "Online" I nodded and turned to find Nick standing behind me, ready to phase me down.
I grabbed a hold of his arm and he grabbed me and hugged me. Then we started falling.
Phasing isn't the most pleasant thing in the world let me be the first one to tell you that. It felt like we were falling rapidly, and I wasn't sure how we were supposed to stop. But soon it felt like somebody had finally installed some brakes cause we started slowing down. We landed lightly next to Iggy and he nodded to us.
"You know what to do." he whispered. Then he took off down one of the tunnels. Patting Nick on the head one last time I raced down a tunnel as well.
The tunnels themselves looked horrible, in some parts there was wreckage covering the walkway, and I had to climb over it to continue through. The walls had craters and pits in them and the ceiling had cracks running along the top. Then I came to a fork in the road.
I paused for a second and tried to think on which road would lead me to a room, was it the left, oh wait or was it the right? Stepping towards the left I saw something amiss in the gravel of the floor.
Hesitantly I stepped towards it and I saw what it was, a footprint. I reeled back, someone else was here! I put a hand up to my comm, "You guys.." But before I could finish something shot out of one of the craters towards my hand, making me drop the connection.
I spun around and ran towards the right tunnel, narrowly dodging yet another projectile.
"Hurry up! Catch her!" a voice rang out behind me and I grabbed one of my throwing daggers and I threw it towards where the voice had come from.
I could hear footsteps behind me, and they were getting louder. A room appeared on my left and I ran inside, quickly flipping up onto one of the shelves embedded on the walls. Again I pressed my hand to my comm.
"You guys there are others here, Justice League I'm guessing... Whats your status?" I heard the others comm's come online and a lot of grunting.
"Kinda busy right now Dom!" I smirked as my chaser came into the room.
"Me to Ferno!" Then I jumped down towards the hero, swinging my leg out towards their face. They easily dodged it, but I hadn't really been trying. It was a male, quickly I went through all of the heroes I knew who were male. A lot of names came to mind, but I quickly recognized him by his sign.
"Hello Robin! Who's a pretty birdy today!" His face changed into a look of indifference, swinging towards my face with his fists he retorted, "And who are you supposed to be? Zebra lady?"
I made sure my laugh was high pitched and annoying. "Of course not! My names Black Domino! But you can call me Dom!" I batted my eyelashes at him flirtatiously and flipped over his head and aimed a kick at his back. He spun around and grabbed my foot then tried to throw me against the wall.
Instead I managed to rip my foot out of his grip, I then proceeded to grab one of my regular knives and slash at his face. He dodged back then reached forward and grabbed my wrist. Then somehow he made my hand go dumb. Which made me drop the knife into his waiting hand.
I tried to kick him in the chest but he spun me around so my hand was pulled back behind my back. He pulled up and I couldn't stop myself from crying out. He kicked my ankle, making it give out.
I fell to the floor and spun around just in time to see him throw the knife right back at my face. My feet acted out of pure instict, it was almost in slow motion and I reached up and caught the knife in between my feet. Snarling I flipped the knife around and slashed at his chest, succeeding in cutting not only his uniform, but also his chest.
His hand came up and grabbed at the wound. I on the other hand flipped the knife back over and tossed it back to my hand. I flipped back up and put the knife back into its sheath. I didn't want to kill him, and that scratch would only take a week to heal.
He lifted his hand off his wound and glared at me, "Fancy moves will get you nowhere!"
I cocked my head to the side, "Oh I'm sure I'll get somewhere!" Then I launched my self forward once again.
He dodged to the side, but he was slower than usual, I frowned, maybe he really was hurt. Mentally I slapped myself, I mean, he was the enemy!
Then he took out a Bo-staff, he flicked it open and I heard the tell tale sound of electricity.
"Aw! I want one of those! Gimme!" I lept forward and reached for the staff. Just like I expected he swung downwards, towards my midriff.
I was easily able to spin out of the way, and since I was behind him I hooked my ankle around his knee and tugged, tripping him to the ground.
His bo-staff fell out of his hands and rolled across the floor. I couldn't help my self from laughing, but this time for real. The sight of the bird sprawled on the ground was to funny! I saw him tense up but I was to late to get out of the way.
He spun around and tripped me to the ground, but I was able to control myself and land some what gracefully.
"Hey I got the kryptonite! Lets go!" I smiled at the bird boy and I flipped back up to my feet.
"Sorry Birdy, but it looks like I've got to run! Smiling I kicked him hard in the chest, right on his wound, "Something to remind you of me, and something to remind me of you!" Carefully I reached down and grabbed his bo-staff.
I flicked it back into its small state and skipped out of the room, but not before blowing him a kiss.
I raced back down the halls until I reached our meeting spot, the others weren't here yet so I slid back into the shadows. I heard a rumbling noise and my eyes flickered around, what was that noise.
Then a small pebble fell right in front of my face. I knelt down and looked at it for a second, then comprehension dawned in my mind. My head flew up as I saw the large rock coming straight towards me. Again I had the feeling of slow motion. I tried to move but it was as if all of the muscles of my body were stuck. I looked up to see a green martian girl. Her eyes were glowing green, and her hands were stretched towards me, she was doing this!
The only thing I was capable of doing was screaming, and I made sure it was loud.
"Dom!" I heard Iggy's voice but by then it was to late the rock crashed down, smashing me straight into the ground.
All was black, I couldn't hear, see, smell or anything. It was like I was floating in darkness.
Am I dead? I thought,. But then realization dawned on me once again, if I was dead how could I think?
I could see a light up ahead, and despite all of the teachings of movies I went straight towards it.
As soon as I hit it everything came rushing back, my hearing, smell, touch, but not sight. I couldn't see anything!
My arms were weak but I pushed at whatever was in front of me, I felt claustrophobic.
Whatever it was moved away and I could see again. And I saw flames.
Everywhere.
I slowly stood up, my back still pressed against the wall where I had.. died? But I didn't see any crushed body parts spewn against the walls so I assumed that my body was indeed the thing I still inhabited.
Iggy was in the middle of the flames, I was expecting that much, and was hurling them at the martian and cursing at her in several different languages.
"Wow! All that for me?" Iggy stopped abruptly and spun around, "Danni!" he mouthed. Smiling he raced over to me and wrapped me into a hug. I pushed him away and held up a finger to silence him. Reaching into my pocket I pulled out my pocketknife.
I flicked it out and started to stalk towards her, she was gonna die, hard.
I launched myself forward and threw it at her face. Her eyes glowed green and the knife and I both stopped, inches from her face. She glared at me and turned the knife around then made it fly back towards me. Screaming I felt something inside me snap and raw power flowed through me. I felt myself change and the knife simply flew right through my head. Her grip on me left and I landed on the ground.
Slowly I stood up and spread my arms, it felt like there were strings attached to my fingers, and I was the puppeteer. I pulled upwards and my beloved shadows followed my command.
The martian began to back away but I had my shadows surround her. I gave her a demonic smile, "Aw C'mon you played with me! Now let me play with you!"
I flung the shadows at her and they proceeded to rip at her hair and clothes. All of a sudden I became lightheaded and the flow of power left me. The shadows left my command and went back to where they had been before.
Iggy wrapped his hand around my waist, "C'mon we gotta go!" I nodded and slumped against his chest, I felt like every once of strength had been sucked into those shadows. Sighing he picked me up and began jogging back to where Nick was.
The last thing I remembered was him passing me off to Nick and phasing through the walls.
