Chapter 3
I got home Friday and as soon as I walked through the doors my phone started ringing.
"Hey Dick! What's up man?" Wally said.
"I'm just studying for the next test I have. What about you?" I lied.
"Oh nothing much I just wanted to know if you wanted to go out for guys night with Supey and Kaldur. What do you think? He asked.
"Ah dude I can' I got this thing with Bruce that I can't get out of sorry dude." I lied again.
" You know this is the 3rd Friday you had something with Bruce. What are you guys doing?" He asked.
"It's top secret Wayne Enterprises stuff you know I can't tell you." Another lie spilled from my mouth.
"Alright I'll see you later then." He said with a little sadness in his voice.
"Yeah see you."
Honestly I wanted to go to the studio today to work on my technique. I'm not going to tell Wally that though. I'm not going to tell anybody that. I'm just waiting for Bruce to get home which should be any minute now. I got into my sweat pants and white tee while I waited for him. Since I finished all my homework there was really nothing for me to do.
Bruce dropped me off at the studio doors. I hopped out of the car grabbing my bag. I got inside and slipped my shoes on. The only person there was Miss. Alexis and she just was just setting up for the big recital coming up. I put my ear buds in and began doing warm ups on the bar. First position, second position, fourth, and fifth. I never did third position I didn't really know why but I just didn't do it. I then placed my leg on the bar and leaned down to touch the ground and the back up to touch my toes. I did this several times and then switched legs.
After my arm ups I walked to the center of the room and began to practice the recital dance. Beginning in first position moving my right leg into a Balançoire. Fixed it into fifth up into an attitude and down into a tendu. Truthfully after that I couldn't tell you what happened. I got totally lost in the movements on the last sixteen counts something stopped me from moving. My legs tensed up and my arms went limp. I just couldn't move. I tried wiggled my fingers and shake my hands hoping something would happen.
"Oh well look who it is." I heard a familiar voice call. Then the voice laughed. I knew exactly who it was now. It was the Joker. That haunting laugh it will stay with you forever once you hear it.
"Who are you?" I called out playing stupid.
"Well that's not really important right now. What's important is who you are and much ransom money I'll get for you that's if I decide not to kill you," he laughed again.
"Can I at least get my bag if you're going to take me." I tried to reason.
"Fine you can take your ballet shoes if you want ballerino." He said picking me up and walking my bag and I out of the studio and into the back of a moving truck. I still couldn't move so I could get into my robin costume. I had no idea what to do. I guess I'll just have to wait for whatever he sprayed me with wear off. It can't be to powerful it should wear off any minute now.
"Harley he is quite quiet back there. Don't you think?" I heard the joker say.
"You know Mr. J I just think he scared you know kids these days get so frighten by the simplest things." Harley Quinn replied.
Great he's got that witch with him. That girl is completely crazy. Hopefully this stuff will wear off in time. Then the truck stopped and the crazy couple came to get me. Next thing I knew I was an in an old warehouse with a camera and lights set up. There was a chair in front of the camera. I'm assuming that was for the Joker. He sat down in front of the camera and had Harley start the camera.
I got my feeling back slightly after that and I could move my arms. I grabbed my bag, which they had brought inside for me and sent out an alert to Batman. I crossed my fingers he would get and smash these guys and take me home. Then suddenly I saw Kaldur and the rest of the team come into the warehouse. This should be fun.
"Don't worry Dick we'll save you." Artemis said as she shot several arrows at the joker. Kid ran up to Harley and handcuffed her as fast as he could while Superboy weakened the Joker by punch him several times. Miss.M tied them up with some near by rope and they left them for the police.
"Thanks for saving my life and all." I said standing up weakly because my legs were just starting to get feeling again.
"Here is your bag. Why do you have ballet shoes in there? Do you take ballet classes?" Artemis said with a smile on her face. Oh shit! They know, it's all over I have to come with something if Wally finds out he will defiantly tell everyone that Robin takes ballet lessons and just imagine the names they will call me. Come on think Dick the girl is waiting. Say something!
"Oh those they're for… uh my friend he has this play thing with the school and I have to drop them off to him because he left them at the rehearsal for the play and me being the good friend I am obviously would bring them back to him. So yeah that's why I have them." I said adding a fake giggle at the end.
"Oh that makes sense." She said smiling again.
I called Bruce and told him where I was and that I needed a ride. He had Alfred come and get me in the once again unnecessary limo. I got into the back seat leaving the team in the rear view mirror.
So what did you think? Was it all right? I thought it was ok. So thank you for reading and please review fav and follow! I love you guys! ~Liz
