Kay guys, just wanted you to know that my off days are Sundays, Mondays, and maybe Saturdays. Those two days I will not update. And, I have to say thank you to all the people that added this to their alerts and their story favorites, and especially the ones who reviewed. You are all awesome.
It had been a long day for Dany, what with the neighborhood bullies, getting her horse to stop running around in the cave, getting Robin to stop trying to figure out her secret identity, and being worried about Vig, anyone would be tired. Thinking about him made her hands stop writing the answer for the math problem, and look out the window of her room.
It was Summer, sure, but that didn't mean that she didn't have to catch up to be able to go to ninth grade this year. She was going to turn fourteen in a couple of days, and after that they were supposed to go visit Vigilante; on her pleas; and see if he would listen. Of course, she would be going with only Flash and KF, but if she got the chance to see him again, she would be ecstatic.
The sky was clear blue, with birds tweeting and mocking her as they flew in circles in front of her window. Dany glared at the bluejays, then decided to get revenge. Taking out the portable water gun she had taken to carry when around Robin and Kid Flash, then opening her window, she took aim and shot at the birds. Missing them by mere inches on porpuse, they screeched in surprise, then flew away.
She smirked evilly, then sighed, let it drop on her bed, and flopped onto the floor, which was covered in papers, books, notebooks, pencils, and more school like things. As she wracked her brain for the answer of the second problem, a breeze passed her, making all of her papers fly around her. Already used to this, she glared up, to see Kid Flash giving her an apologetic smile.
"Kid Flash, what are you doing here?" She growled out, already knowing not to call him by his real name while in costume.
"Uh, Dany, we got a problem. Your horse, it somehow found a way to vibrate out of the cave, and is now looking for you." He told her, looking around nervously.
Dany sighed, then let her head drop into her arms. "Why me?" She groaned, then slowly got up after taking a deep breath.
"You really should name him something, you know that, right?" KF asked, then grabbed her under the knees and her shoulders, carrying her bridal style.
Dany sighed, wrapping her arms around his neck, hating how they looked. They were brothers, yet if people saw them now they would think they were together. Yuck! "How come you can't carry me piggy back?" She asked, using her puppy dog eyes.
Kid Flash looked down at her, trying to not let her win, then sighed. "Dany, I told you why."
"But I'm used to hanging on for dear life!" Dany whined, letting her kid side show.
KF chuckled, then shook his head. "No is no, D. Now let us go."
She frowned at the nickname, but didn't say anything as he started running. She closed her eyes, and a few seconds later they had stopped. She looked up, to see that they were in the middle of the street, where her horse was bucking up and down, Flash trying to refrain him.
She sighed, pulling up her mask as Kid Flash set her down, seeing that that was the only thing that kept her identity secret. She could wear whatever, because that was her usual costume. Then, taking a few steps back, she took a running start, and jumped a few feet away from her horse, landing roughly on his back, grabbing him by the neck and pulling back.
"Bad horsey!" She scolded, all the while thumping his right ear. "Bad horsey!"
"Ow, this is abuse!" The whiny voice of her horse resounded in her head, but she didn't even flinch.
"How dare you do that to the cave! With all the things they've been giving you!" She scolded, standing up on his back and looking at his face, seeing as he had stopped bucking.
The black haired horse looked down, ashamed, then mumbled "I'm sorry." In her head. Dany's eyes softened, then she sat down and pet his back. "Don't worry bout it, we'll just blame KF!" She smiled, eyes closed, while Kid Flash spluttered his say in the coversation.
Flash laughed at the three kids, then pet Kid Flash on the shoulder. "Come on, kids, let's go back to the cave and explain to the big bad bat."
This seemed to wipe the smiled off of both the horse and Dany's face, and they were taken over by fear. "Horse, yip yip!" Dany yelled, hitting her horse on the sides with both feet, steering him in the opposite direction of the cave.
"Hey!" Flash yelled, then took off running behind both of them.
Kid Flash ran after him, the four starting a chase, even if all of them were pretty happy about it. Too much seriousness and no fun will kill you. Ask Batman. Too bad that they didn't notice the curious eyes looking at them, or how they were already coming up with a story and how they would back it up. Oh yes, Barry would regret not going to her crocheting club.
"As you can see in the video behind me, it seems that Flash has a brand new sidekick." Iris Allen reported, with a video in a box showing Dany in costume, along with the Flashes and her horse, finishing up a fight with Captain Cold.
Barry stared open mouthed at the television screen, along with Dany and Wally. Iris had not just done this. She couldn't have!
"This is a bad dream!" Barry suddenly yelled out, jumping up and making the popcorn fly everywhere. The two kids looked at him with wide eyes, but then returned to normal seeing as this was their Uncle Barry. "Yeah! That fight with Captain Cold knocked me out, and now I'm having a weird hallucination.
Both kids looked at each other, giving the other 'the look', then shook their heads. This was Uncle Barry they were seeing do this. This is like hearing that Batman likes being moody and broody. Nothing but old news.
"What I would like to know," Iris's co-anchor continued, swiveling his chair to look at the video. "Is her name. From what I see here, it seems that she is rather reluctant to even be there." He says, getting a shot were Dany slapped Kid Flash on the head. "And that she must be very close to both heroes."
Iris nodded sagely, then smiled at the camera. Dany and Wally glared, while Barry turned around to sulk in the corner. "Bats wanted to make her a Bat." He moaned, then started talking about the different ways that Batman would kill him.
Dany sighed and turned off the TV, then got up and stretched. "Walls, wanna go with me and tell the horse he'll be out more often?" She asked her brother, smiling kindly, getting a super fast nod in return.
Wally carried her piggy back this time, seeing that they were only going to his closet, and pressed the digits for both of them to go in. She still didn't have a name, so the cave only announced her as 'Third Speedster', even though she didn't have any of that. Robin and Nightwing greeted them, Robin trying to take off her mask, and her side stepping him and smacking him in the head.
"Robin, no seeing my secret ID, what's wrong with you?" She scolded, the male on the crouched on the floor, rubbing his head.
"That hurt!" He whined, getting an eye role from the girl who walked away.
"Hey, Nighty!" She greeted Nightwing, who smiled and engulfed her in a hug. She grunted at the strength, then chuckled at his smile.
"What up, Jr?" he asked, setting her down.
She frowned at the nickname, then asked, "What's up with you people and that nickname?"
Nightwing shrugged, then they both started walking in the direction of the stables Martian Manhunter and Flash built for her horse. When they arrived, Kid Flash was already trying to get on it, failing miserably by either falling on his face, or his bum.
"You really should name him." Nightwing spoke up, getting a long sigh from her.
"I know, I just don't know what." She said, but only walked towards the horse. "C'mon horsey, stop throwing my brother and come here. I have good news."
The horse stopped biting at Wally, who hissed at it while cradling his bum, and trotted towards his rider. "Seriously, almost a week with you and you still haven't given me a name?"
"Man, you all are so pressing. I'm a procrastinator, okay?" She told them.
Then, the computer voice spoke up, telling them that Speedy had arrived. "Darn it, it's Red Arrow!" making Dany smile evilly.
"Horsey, I have a new name for you." She announced, making the horse take a step back in fright at her.
Three reviews and I'll update as soon as possible.
