Hi. Well, school is all blah so I'm taking out my feels in the story.
And for the record, (again) no I did not make up the name wing-ding for Nightwing's wepon. You can search it. And some people couldn't really picture Nightwing that way, so just search up the Young Justice version of Nightwing and that's what he looks like mostly.
Mezza999- Why thank you!
XAngelWithoutWingsX- Yeah Karen is like one of my favorite characters. My friends sometimes say I act all sassy like her.
jbug2000- I don't think you're a dweeb. I do that too some times.
Keepmovingforward2- Yep. Gotta keep everyone happy.
It was very dark. The only light in the near empty room came from the large computer screen which threw the user into a silhouette.
A door on the other side of the room opened as someone entered; briefly giving a rectangle of light on the floor.
"What do you want?" The person sitting back in the chair infront of the screen paused the surveillance tape that had been playing.
The young man who had entered rolled his eyes, though it wasn't visible behind his white skull mask. "Stallion and Leather failed. Some big shot heros here got in the way."
"You think I don't know that?" The older man gestured up at the screen which showed the two B-list villians and the backs of the heros.
The younger crossed his arms. "Well, Xenothium isn't exactly growing on trees, you know Slade. I don't understand why I can't just go out and get some myself. Not that hard."
Slade sighed. So impatient. "All in good time X."
"Well, you tell that to the group downstairs. They're getting testy."
Slade stood, cracking his knuckles. "Fine."
Red X walked infront of him to opened the door. Slade walked out to the balcony and looked down at the crowd below.
Tens of men and women were down there. All of them had one common enemy. Those dratted Teen Titans.Though now Slade reconed they should start to refer to them as the Titans. While all the villians had recently been revived to their prime ages, the Titans had grown.
They all looked up at him and the room went quiet as the arguments stopped.
Slade smiled behind his mask, his one eye shinning. He said one word. One soon-to-be life changing word.
"Soon."
Kole resisted to urge to roll her eyes as Richard and Rachel's faces morphed into expressions of innocence.
"What are you talking about?" Richard said in a voice that wasn't fooling anyone.
-flashback-
Kole was sitting on the couch in an animated conversastion with Kori and Jenifer when Toni voiced a thought that many others had been wondering.
"Where're Rich and Rach?"
Everyone looked around before Garth called for Alfred.
"Yes?" He said, his british accent crisp.
"Where are Raven and Robin?" Kole asked, before realizing she had used their old names.
"Master Dick and Miss Rachel," He said, stressing their names with a glance at her. "Are out on bussiness currently. They will be back soon."
He turned around and left.
Gar huffed and grabbed the remote to the flat screen T.V. It was on the news channel and a pretty Asian woman was talking with a S.W.A.T. and police cars flashing in the backround.
"Just a few minutes again natorious villians know as Leather and Stallion were here at the home of Mason Kerlin, one of the top bussiness men in Bludhaven. We're being told that they had plans to kidnap Mr. Kerlin; plans which thankfully foiled by Bludhaven's gurdian hero's, Nightwing and the Raven."
"Oh no they did." Karen was fumming.
"We don't know it's them." Terra tried.
Roy raised an eyebrow at her and crossed his arms.
"I'm sure our friends had a perfectly good reason for this." Kori said firmly.
Richard nervously licked his lips and gave a weak grin after they replayed what they had seen. "Come on guys. You don't honestly-"
"Just stop there." Gar said, holding up his hologamed-fair hand. "First of all, we know you're Nightwing Richard. Remember when Star went into the future? Yeah, so do we. And Rachel... I don't think I need to explain."
There was a moment of silence as everyone stared at Richard and Raven, who inturn stared at the floor. Kole felt bad for them. They were just trying to help people and now they were being yelled at for it.
Kole stood up. "I know that we're all mad at the two of them for not telling us, but we shouldn't make them feel bad for helping people."
Rachel sent her a thankful smiled, which she returned.
"Yeah. Sorry guys." Wally hugged them for a fraction of a second before running back to his spot next to Jenifer.
Richard seemed happy and stood up to his full height, stretching his arms out. "Ok guys! It's midnight. We have a big day tomorrow. Everyone can take their own room, if you haven't already. The last room on the right is for the older kids, and the one on the left is for the little ones. And guys," He gave everyone a meaningful glance. "Lets keep everything G-rated okay?"
Everyone blushed and walked around to collect their things and kids.
After stopping to put Sarah in a spare crib, Kole walked into the room she was sharing with Jericho. "Goodnight." She called.
Other people yelled goodnight back as they disappered into their rooms.
After dressing herself in her nightclothes, Kole slipped into bed next to Jericho. She snuggled up against him as he turned off the lights. "Night, night." She mummbled.
Jericho patted her lightly on the back twice, before they both drifted to sleep.
Do you guys think that was a sucky chapter? And I'm thinking of at somepoint bringing in Lian, the child of Roy and Cheshire. Should I? She was so cute in the comics, I was so sad when she died.
