Hi! I bet you all know what I'm going to say next huh? But I decided I'd change it up some just for you guys I'm going to respond back to the reviews I got for the last chappie! So ok here we go!
TerraBB4Eva: Thanks for liking my ending I wanted to put some humor in this chapter it seemed too dark at points.
cartoonstar: I'm not saying she's dead but I'm not saying she's alive either.
DiamondOasis: Thanks for the support! I felt really bad I couldn't get a chapter out sooner.
StraightFromCupid: Yes, it's my first fanfic, I think the only reason it's decent is because I had it in my head from the first Rob/Star episode "Sisters" so I've been able to write the chapter's in my head for a while. But honestly most of the time I just wing it and I think I'll continue to do that.
That's All Thank you for you're precious support it really keeps me going! Love ya!
Don't own anything.
"Hua!" a starbolt flew from my hand and directly hit the robot. I smiled in victory but it quickly faded to determination when the next one swung at me I flew into the air just in the nick of time and made it collide face first into the wall. It was easier to attack when flying in my own opinion you can see the entire battle field this way. The flying bots came at me with no mercy however and I had to fly away from their lasers. I now had a plan evolving in my sweat covered head. I flew down almost as fast as the speed of sound (I can't fly as fast as light yet) with the fly bots lasers following I karate chopped the robot and put my self behind him only to have himself in a head on laser collision course the I picked up the fried robot and hurled him straight into the laser bots. And explosion soon follows followed closely by robot debris at my aubergine booted feet.
"49.75 seconds. Not bad, but you could do better though, next time try boasting less and focusing your anger more." A voice over the loudspeakers tells me. I sigh and retreat through the sliding door.
"Maybe if we didn't do this four times a day, plus schoolwork, plus the constant weightlifting, plus karate classes, and jogging through the par—''
"Do you wanna save your mom or not?" Dad morphs in front of me.
"Yeah, more than anything but is all this training really necessary? I mean, seriously, I can't feel my arms anymore" I tell him, My grades have been dropping recently from A+'s to B-'s and I blame him if I go to summer school.
"Yes it's all going to show in the end." He tells me as I take a long swig of water. I nod my head. He tells me this all the time.
"You look so much like your mother." He says after he sees my water is gone. I thought I looked like him honestly with the ebony hair and blue eyes but my new "Super suit" could make a lot of people think otherwise. I designed it myself with Alfred by my side. Dark purple knee-length boots, matching skirt complete with black utility belt, a dark purple (belly showing) tube-top with the initials 'NS' written in black, (a/n: Think of Robin's 'R' insignia) a choker with said initials dandling from it covered in real rhinestones, a purple mask (a/n: like a strip of cloth w/ holes cut out for the eyes) and finally sporting my arms are elbow length fingerless dark purple gloves. Everything was originally going to be purple but it was too bright for my taste.
"Um, Thanks" I reply. He smiles at me slightly and I return it.
"You gotta go get showered and ready for school and I need to get ready for work so come on." He motions to the door and I follow. A shower is something I could definitely use right now.
Jump to me coming down a Maplewood stair case my uniform on (a/n: the one Terra wears) a blur of black and tan pins me to the floor and starts licking my face.
"Titan! Get off! I just showered!" I giggle. My German Shepard reluctantly gets off and I sweep the fur off me and heads towards the kitchen. It's so like my dad to have the type of dog that does police work and protects the house as a pet.
"Good morning Miss Grayson, I trust training went well." The kind old man smiles at me. Through the newspaper he was currently reading
"I guess, I mean I didn't lose any limbs." He chuckles lightly, and turns to get me my breakfast.
"Listen Al, you really gotta stop with the servant thing for me, I appreciate what you're trying to do and everything but I can really get my Apple Jacks on my own." I say. He chuckles again.
"You are so much like your mother. She wouldn't let me get a thing for her when she lived here, even when she was pregnant with you." He tells me sadly.
I grab my bowl and spoon followed by the Apple jacks and milk, put them all together and I take my seat at the table with the newspaper beside me and Titan beneath my feet. The headlines read: 'Mysterious Girl takes down two Burglars' and a subsection reads 'Could she be involved with new superheroes Animal & Phantom?' I stop eating my Apple Jacks and look at the picture of the two new heroes. The one 'Animal' is a girl with tiger stripes all over, fang like teeth, a battered and torn costume, a tail, a pair of ears, whiskers, complete with cats-eye green eyes (shaped like a cat's eyes also) and razor shaped fingers.
But, what really shocked me was 'Phantom' he wore a completely black cloak with two red eyes peering out of a hood, his face completely hidden by the darkness the bottom of his cloak ripped and torn making him look like a ghost.
"Al, can you ride Mar'i to school?" Dad asks, running down the stairs to his awaiting cup of coffee. I for one am blessed when he takes the vile smelling drink and swallows it in one gulp.
"You look nice in that suit; Bruce put ya in another meeting?" I ask. He sighs and nods solemnly.
"Yeah, not that I want to but he was like 'you're going to own the company soon Dick so you have to go' so obviously I have no choice."
"Kinda like me with school, huh?" I say. He laughs and ruffles my hair then gives me a fatherly kiss on the cheek.
"I'm late gotta run. See ya Al, Love ya Kor." But by the time what he said hit me he was already pulling out of the driveway.
"So Alfred, do ya have a hair brush?"
"The perimeter of a square. Does anybody know how we find it?" Miss Moth asks the class. I slunk in my seat. Of course I know the answer I'm just too tired to say it.
"Miki?" She asks my brunette friend for the answer.
"Isn't it Side times side?" She verifies. I hear a yes come from our blonde teacher as she turns to write it on the board a note finds its way to my desk. I'm not falling for that one again I put it into my book and try to concentrate on the teacher when another note flops on my desk. Frustrated I look around to see the culprit and suspect only one person I turn towards Brendon and he's writing something down in his note book and when the teacher turns her back towards us Brendon shows what he wrote 'READ THE NOTE!!!!!!' is scribbled in Brendon's messy handwriting. He quickly flips his notebook back down and acts like he's doing work. I unfold the second note first on my lap when Miss Moth leaves the room. It reads:
Mar, read the first note I promise nothings going to happen.
-Brendon
I open the first note hesitantly. This one reads:
WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN US IN CELEBRATING THE GRADUATION OF 8th GRADE STUDENTS OF MAKIMURI MIDDLE SCHOOL WITH THE TRADITIONAL DANCE.
WHERE: GREENSWAY MANOR 215 JUMP LA.
TIME: 7:00-MIDNIGHT
DATE: FRIDAY, JUNE 01, 2007
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A FORMAL AFFAIR. BRING A DATE!
I'm not shocked. I got one today too. Every 8th grader gets one because it's THEIR dance. What I was shocked at was the small print at the bottom. It was Brendon's handwriting and you could tell he was embarrassed when he wrote it because the writing was trembly-looking it said
Shortie, I'm asking you for our first date if you would accompany me to it I'll be waiting at the tree after school with your answer.
-Brendon
He made me blush. It was true though we never actually went on an official first date, we just hung around each other a lot with our other friends. I'm not going to reject this for the world. The bell rings and I sigh, only six more classes to go.
BRENDON'S POV
I sit in the shade and wait for my princess to show up. I'm not sure if she likes these formal affairs or not but we need to be alone for once. Not with my baby sister around or the twins, or Miki. Just Mar'i and myself. I look at a squirrel in front of me standing in the very spot she told me how she—actually she didn't tell me anything. She was just tired. A sigh escapes my lips and I find myself drifting off until I feel a presence in front of me and hear some one call my name I open my eyes to see a big curious pair of sea blue ones in my face.
"Holy! Sh—" I scream but she cuts my cursing off with her pink lips.
"You're so bad. There are children here." She tells me after we part.
"I see you got my note." She bobs her raven head up and down to signal she did and I sigh.
"So um, d-do y-y-ou want to?" I ask she just looks at me, her ocean eyes I've known since childhood full of love.
"Of course! Geez! You must've gotten your dad's brains in there." She hits my head a few times. I grab her wrist and for a minute she looks uncomfortable so I move down to her hands and her face eases I pull her down to my lap and rest my chin on her shoulder and look down the hill to all the children playing on the monkey bars and swings.
"I remember when we would do that." She says her eyes have this faraway look and she clutches her locket in her hand.
"I remember you pushing me in the sand and I pushed you off the swings for that." She chuckles.
"I'm glad you've got your memory my princess." I whisper seductively in her ear and she tenses. Suddenly she's no longer in my arms but standing and giving her one hand to me to help me up which I gladly accept. She hugs me, well my chest because she's so short.
"I gotta run Dad needs me home." She smiles and kisses me on the lips lightly
"Bye then." I say. She smiles.
"Stop being so depressed and smile for once." I'm surprised she remembered the day we took the picture that now rests on my computer desk.
"Bye Brendon. I Love you!" She calls from down the hill. And I'm in a state of shock. And only one thought crosses my mind.
She was definitely not sleepy.
Another Chapter finished! I feel so great that I'm writing so fast. More to come and you know what to do!
Love Ya,
SuperJGirl5
