The SECRET Training: Young Justice Seasons 1 & 2
Episode 13: Alpha Male
September 10th- During the beginning events in Northern India…
Robin grinned as Stephanie tried out the new ear pieces. The new comm links. He had been working on them for some time and with the fiasco of Red Tornado happening, Dick felt they needed back up.
And Shadowcat was that back up.
Also, within that time, Wally and Dick have been training her even harder, and they've been trying to find a way to introduce her to Kaldur first.
Thank goodness Roy got that covered. He told the Dark Knight that Sportsmaster took on the hit on Stephanie first. He stopped it. He introduced her to Robin and Kid Flash and the rest he knew.
Batman bought the story.
"So?"
"What's the range?" Shadowcat asked.
"The whole country."
"Really!?"
"Really."
"So…when can I meet Kaldur?" she asked.
"Soon." Dick was really getting annoyed over the fact that Stephanie was always asking when she was meeting Kaldur or the team. It was wearing on the three of them. He then noticed that she was getting absorbed into a book that looked arcane. "Uh, you can probably get that on your new tablet."
"No, I can't."
"Yes, you can sis!"
"No…I can't!" She glared at her brother. "This is the biographies of all the Catwomen before my mom. I'm learning so much."
"Steph…reading a book isn't going to help you in a fight." Dick couldn't help but be curious. He started to read over her shoulder.
"Are you okay?" she asked him after a few minutes of quiet.
"I'm asterous! Why?"
"You don't like quiet. And you barely survived the Reds. No way are you okay."
"Speak for yourself. You still have nightmares about Slade."
The two stared at each other; everything else was forgotten. They were like that for 10 minutes.
Dick blinked first. "I'm not okay," he admitted.
"Me either. Stay tonight, Dick. Neither of us would be alone."
"Okay. I'll asked Roy and Wally to come too. I'll have homework. And speaking of, don't you ever have homework?"
"I am a month ahead."
"Then we can play vid games."
"That's so chalant of you." Stephanie grinned.
Dick smiled back.
Around midnight…
The pullout bed was in use. Wally and Dick were sleeping on it. Roy was on the one arm chair that pulled out into a twin bed. Stephanie was on the other pullout couch. The 'Call of Duty 2' game was on pause, the PS3 blinking to conserve energy.
There was light snoring all around the living room and Peter shuffled his feet over to shut off the t.v. He saw Isis' form on the window seal. He walked over to the cat and pet it. "Look over them, Isis. They will need all the rest they can get. The Goddess favors these 4." With those whispered words, Peter sought out his own bed.
Alone, the Egyptian Mau watched the four with knowing eyes.
The Light was trying to rule over this world. And with all of the women who were once Catwoman gone, only one remained. A child.
And Selina's daughter would not fall to the Light.
***Yeah, so short! The next few will be. But I wanted to post something quick. **
