Clocktower (morning)
Barbara and Dinah were seated at the Delphi system when Reese walks into the clocktower.
"Are you guys ok?"
"Ya we're fine." Said Barbara.
Two Hours earlier someone had gotten into the clocktower (supposedly impossible with the heightened security, but did it anyway).
"Was anything taken, anything out of place" asked Reese
"No, I don't think so. I just don't understand how the hell someone managed to get in here in the first place. The security is so tight."
"Ya, I know. It doesn't make a whole lot of since."
Dinah then heard a voice in her Comm set.
"Ya, we're fine…….Ok, bye" said Dinah into her ear piece.
"That was Helena, she's on her way up"
"Alright good."
"Hey, I'm gonna go so I can do some searching and see what I can find." Said Reese.
"You're avoiding her." Dinah pointed out.
"No I'm not, I just think I should do some detective work on this, and you guys check things out on your end. Then you can get a hold of me if you find something"
"Riiight, of course"
Helena then came into the clocktower passing Reese on the way out.
"Hey, find anything out yet?" she asked.
"Nope, not yet." Answered Barbara.
"Well I guess we can get started then." Said Helena.
"Didn't you have that outfit on last night Helena?" asked Dinah.
"So what if I did."
"Nothing, nothing at all. Have a good night?"
"Ya, had a good morning too until this."
"Life of a crime fighter, you should be used to that by now"
"Ya, I am. Cole's not"
"Afraid that he'd freak if he found out?"
"No, I just don't feel that it's the right time yet. And I'm done with this conversation."
"Fine"
A couple hours later they hadn't come any closer to figuring out who broke into the clocktower.
As they were sitting there talking about the case, out of the blue their conversation then switched over to discussions that led to arguments.
"I don't understand why you can't just let me be happy with Cole! All you guys do is judge him. You're also judging my decision and I'm done with it. Stop being jealous that I'm actually happy with my life," yelled Helena.
"Oh yeah Helena, what do I have to be jealous of, huh? Jealous that you're 24 and are still working in a bar for a living, jealous that you never went to college, jealous that you'll never be more than just a poor little vigilante who won't ever get a thing out of life. I don't think so," said Barbara, "I am so sick of you making everyone else miserable and thinking the world revolves around you and you're poor little pitiful life because you feel so terrible that your mom's gone and daddy's not around."
"Ya well, at least I don't think I'm better than everyone else nor would I ever want to be a know it all bitch like you, I'm sick of you judging me."
"And I'm sick of being put in the middle of you two" Dinah put in.
Finally their arguments turned into a physical fight.
Reese walked into the clocktower just as the fighting was starting to end.
"What the hell is going on in here?"
Helena stopped fighting Barbara, looked at them, then turned and walked out of the clocktower.
All of a sudden whatever had come over them disappeared.
"What was that about?" asked Reese.
"I, I don't know. It's like something just made us get angry with each other. We were fighting, but we shouldn't have been. It doesn't make any since."
Cole's Apartment
Helena had knocked on the door of his apartment. She stood there as he opened the door.
"Helena, what are you doing here? Are you ok, what's wrong" asked Cole, noticing that Helena looked like shit.
" We, Barbara, Dinah, and myself, just got into this huge fight. I don't know how it happened, I don't even remember what the argument was about."
Cole went to hug her
"Why don't you come in"
"Ok."
Helena headed inside with Cole.
