I know this chapter is short, but I just REALLY want to get farther into the story, because there's so much coming up that I can't wait to get written! :D
"Robin?"
Terra stood at her door, looking at her unexpected guest. "It's been a long time, I know," he said. "But this isn't exactly a personal visit." This didn't surprise her. "I'm afraid there's a new criminal on the loose who's planning to attack jump city."
Terra sighed and crossed her arms. "So? This has happened dozens of times since we disbanded. Let's just let the police deal with it like all the other times."
"Slade's leading him."
This changed everything. "Did you talk to the others yet?" she asked. Robin shook his head. "But considering you were his apprentice, I thought you'd want to be the first to know," he said. "I also wanted to know if Is got her powers yet. We're going to need all the help we can get."
"Even if she had gotten any powers, which she won't, there's no way I'd let her come with me," Terra said seriously. "She's not like us, Robin. She wasn't forced into tough situations to make her stronger." Terra's face fell and she hung her head. "Besides, I gave up fighting. Lost my fire, I guess."
"Oh. Right, sorry…"
I'm too lazy to write this part, I probably will later and update it, but I really want to get to a certain point in this story first.
(Meanwhile, Is was in school, and was staring at a spider, thinking that it would be funny if it somehow got onto her teacher's head. This actually ended up happening, and she thought it was a coincidence. Later, some upperclassmen were picking on her friend, and she thought that it would be funny if they got attacked by birds. Again, it ended up happening. She is now suspicious of the existence of her powers, but hasn't told anyone yet.)
ON TO THE EXITING PART! :D
