Allie's POV
There are so many thoughts going through my head right now. But all I can manage to say is…. Whaaat? I was at the moment surrounded by a purple force field. The pieces all smashed against it as I stared in awe. Finally, when I saw no more debris falling, the purple force field diminished.
"Did…did...did I do that?"
I looked down at Dick and saw him breathing fine and with a few cuts. "Well at least he's alive. I think I'll leave him here and catch up with Robin before Batman catches us."
"You're a bit too late for that." I turned slowly and saw the League and the Team staring at me.
Crap Crap Crap Then Robin was pushed forward, "Hey Black…"
Batman glared at us, "We will talk once we get back to the cave. Miss Martian can you levitate Nightwing to the Med-bay on the ship." The League left while we walked back to the Bio-ship.
Robin and I sat next to each other on the ship. "So did you... ya know?"
Jace peered at me, "No, he got away. He crushed Di-Nightwing and of course I chose to save him."
Jace looked forward until he looked at me again, "Hey what did Joker do to you anyway?"
He killed them, got away with it, ruined my life, and then hurt my brother. But... "He's an evil man and has killed many already." I glared at the wall until I could feel a red hot ball of anger and energy build up. I felt like I was going to explode literally like it was just going to pulse out and consume everything in sight.
I need to calm down, I really need to calm down. Jason looked at me worriedly but soon focused on a certain green boy heading our way.
Jason POV
Allie did not look ok at all. I could see her struggling to hold in her anger. She almost looked as if she might break down. I was about to talk to her but then he spoke.
"Hey Blackbird!" When he spoke everyone seemed to remember we were on the ship too.
Allie still glaring at the wall answered," What Beastboy?" He apparently didn't get that she wasn't in the mood to talk.
"Um we heard that the ceiling collapsed on Nightwing but you were nearby too. So...how come youre not hurt?"
I looked at Allie and saw that her face changed again as if she was wondering about something. "I was fighting Joker when the ceiling collapsed on Nightwing."
Kid Flash turned around and yelled, "You fought with Joker and didn't get a scratch?! Aren't you a hero in training; you too Robin? Actually how did you guys even find him? Howdidyougettherewithoutuskn owing? Whywereyouthere? WhygoagainstJoker?"
"Kid Idiot shut up! We can't even understand you anymore! Anyways we're here." A blonde girl yelled at Kid Flash who just pouted and walked out with everyone else. Dick had woken up and was watching Allie.
Allie well I don't know what to say about her. Once we're done being yelled at; I have to talk to her, I guess. She looked angry, hurt and confused as we walked out to face Batman and a few leaguers.
Oh gosh here comes the lecture.
Bruce POV
The teens and young adults walked in. Dick was up but was staring at Allie; While Jason also stared at Allie. Allie was in her own world. They all settled in waiting for my lecture.
"Team you were fine today. But Robin and Blackbird, you outright disobeyed my orders to stay in the cave and placed yourself," I looked at Dick," And others at risk. But with the miniscule training you both have. You were able to sneak onto an Alien ship, shielding your presence and mind. Then Robin was about to find and rescue the hostages. Blackbird was able to fight Joker without a single hit landing on her and even saved a teammate. Joker may have got away but…Good Job."
Jason POV
Did we just get a thumbs up?
I stared at Bruce confused. "Well Team hit the showers and go home." The team began to walk away, "Robin, Blackbird when you get home put your suits away. I don't like seeing costumes hanging around. Oh and you're grounded. You will be cleaning the batmobile and batcave for the next three months. Meanwhile, you will be going under rigorous training."
Wait so so….
Allie looked up and stared at Bruce," You're letting us become….heroes?"
I can't believe this I'm going to be a Boy Wonder. I'm worthy enough to be the second Robin. The title was passed on to me.
Dick smiled at me and ruffled my hair with his good hand, "You earned it. Oh and thank you Allie for saving me. Don't forget we still have to get that ice cream. Actually tomorrow may be good. Hey Bruce just one day before they are punished let me take Allie out for that ice cream please... "
I don't know what Dick was doing but I have got to learn that.
Dick stared at Bruce until he sighed, "Okay but after that the punishment starts. Now go on I have a meeting today with the League. Good night."
We said our goodnights and walked through the Zeta-beams.
I am exhausted…
Dick's POV
I let the youngins go ahead of me through the Zeta-beam. Before I entered Bruce gave me a look and I nodded understanding fully what he wanted.
I need to talk with Allie.
I stepped through and saw both kids sluggishly removing their costumes. Maybe I'll talk to her tomorrow. Jason's shirt was stuck over his head and Allie seemed to forget how to take off her utility belt.
"I'm so tired, ugh, Dick help me with my shirt." Jason must be really tired he never asks for any help ever.
"Diiiiiccckkk." I walked over to him and unbuttoned the one button he forgot, sliding his head through.
"Thanks."
I then clicked Allie's safety clip on her belt allowing her suit to come off. Both kids had cuts and bruises on them but both soon began to head upstairs.
"Goodnight Dick."
"Night D."
"Uhh no I just can't have it. Back you go down to the Medbay, Miss Alicia and Master Jason. You too Master Dick."
Ohh Alfie
"Come on Alfred, I'm tired!"
"Come on I'm beat."The two ten year olds were reluctantly dragged to the Medbay and taken care of.
Shortly after the two ten year olds were out cold and in Dick's arm as he carried them to their rooms. My little siblings, I'm going to have to look out for them more, more so now that they're sidekicks. I'd die if something happened to them. Then I have Jace going in my footsteps and Allie. My little sister, I especially have to look out for her. There are some bad boys out there. Well she'll date when she's….21 yea. After tucking in Allie I headed to my room for a nice sleep.
Allie's POV
You didn't avenge them. You let that creature get away!
But I tried! I honestly tried. But but Dick was crushed and...
DICK!Who is this Dick, that he would stop you from avenging us!
The area began to turn dark and little streams of white light spilled out showing mangled bodies slowly creeping towards me.
You didn't avenge us, Allie! You have forgotten about us!
Nnno I...
You want us dead! You must have wanted the money! What about my children?
No
The phrases were repeated over and over as they crept closer to me until they...
"Allie!"
I sat up quickly with sweat everywhere. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Jace at my side with a worried look in his eyes.
"Are you okay Allie?"
Am I ok? I looked around and saw that it was early in the morning. "Uhh... Wha wha what are you doing in my room?"
"Well I heard you screaming and you wouldn't answer ya door. So I came in then you were fighting your covers and crying. Allie, why are you here?"
I began to come back to my senses and started to step out my bed. "What do you mean why am I here? I live here."
"No, like...What happened that made you live here? Why were you adopted by Bruce? What happened to your family? You never told me and I think you need to talk about it."
I stood and stared at my mirror for a few seconds. What did happen to my family?
What family!? You betrayed them the minute you let that clown go! You have no family! I bet Bruce doesn't even want you. It looks like he has a habit of taking in screw-ups. The circus orphan, the rich but never actually loved by her family orphan, then the rough slums boy. Actually yea this is your family, a group of screw-ups. Oh but will Bruce still love you if he finds out you are willing to kill. He'd drop you like a hot potato. Oh and that little force field… Remember Bruce doesn't like Metas in his city. Look how imperfect your perfectly screwed up life is. But you know how to fix it.
"Uhh, Allie?" I felt his hand touch my shoulder again.
"It's none of your business! If I wanted to tell you I would! So stop butting in!" I pushed his hand off my shoulder and headed downstairs for breakfast.
Today is not going to be a good day.
Jason's POV
What the hell I try to be nice and she just bites me in the butt. Gosh, maybe this is what Uncle was talking about when he said at a time girls randomly become meanies.
Arg Girls…
I headed downstairs where surprisingly everyone was at the table. Bruce sat at the head of the table and was eating pancakes. Dick was to his right dressed in outside clothes and was eating an omelet. Allie was across from Dick but moved a seat over to the right. Alfred was already walking over with her chocolate chip nutella pancakes.
"Good morning, Master Jason. The usual?"
I nodded and sat next to Allie who was stabbing her pancakes. The table was quiet except for the discrete sound of knives and forks against the plate.
"Here you go Master Jason."
"Thanks Alfie." I looked at Allie but she was glaring at her pancakes.
"So… Allie, ready for that ice cream today?"
Everyone but Dick looked at Allie discretely. "Uh... sure why not?"
"Good, I know this great 50's themed shop. It's amazing! There's a juke box, waitresses on roller-skates, and almost all the flavors and toppings you can dream of!" Dick was lost in his own world as Allie picked at her breakfast.
"Uhh I'm going to get dressed." Allie pushed her chair back and began to head upstairs.
Dick sighed and ran a hand through his hair," I hope this goes well. She's so far gone, Bruce. I mean I feel her but…"
Bruce stood and patted Dick on the back, "I wish you the best Dick. Jason, we're heading to the Cave. I have a meeting and Alfred has some errands to run so you're coming with me."
I slid my seat back to follow Bruce and saw Allie dressed and ready to go. "Have fun, Allie."
Allie looked up at me and muttered. "Yeah, sure."
"Well bye you guys! We'll see you later!" They left just as I headed downstairs.
I hope things go well.
Normal POV
Dick and Allie sat in a corner booth in the ice cream parlor. The parlor had old music playing while there were waitresses with bobs skating around taking orders. The two had already ordered something for themselves. Dick ordered a pistachio split with chocolate chips, chocolate and cherry liquid draping over it. Then MMs sprinkled everywhere. While Allie got an extra-large Oreo milkshake and a single Oreo scoop. They now sat there waiting in silence.
Dick's POV
Okay Dickie boy let's do this. I mean she's only ten. Well she's pretty darn mature for a ten year old.
"So Allie, how are you?" I stuck my spoon in my ice cream.
"I'm cool living with Bruce is…cool." I nodded trying to think how to say this next sentence.
"So how are you dealing with the loss?" Allie stared at her ice cream and began to poke it with her spoon.
"I'm ... cool." Man this is going to be a hard one.
Allie's POV
So this is why, using ice cream as a lure. Curse my inner child.
"So you're cool…with the death of your family?"
Of course I'm not okay with it. That… man... creature killed my family. He... He…
"I mean my parents die and I still."
That thing ended my family life for no reason at all.
"Being younger I would think just that it would hurt more and."
Allie was slowly getting angrier as Dick continued to speak.
"I heard from Bruce that you have anger issues. I'm telling you revenge isn't the right thing to do."
Allie snapped," So what is the right thing to do?! He killed my family and I'm sure I'm not his first victim! Joker needs to die, to feel the pain of his victims!"
Dick calmly answered," Ok then what? You won't feel any better I tell you. When you broke his arm, what did you feel?"
"Nothing at all but it's because his arm can heal and he'll be right back. If he dies he's never coming back. Like my family."
Dick's voice gradually got louder," Well tell me this. Will you kill him? Do you have the guts to? And if you did kill him? If you did! Are you ready to be hunted down by Bruce and me? To be categorized along with all the other criminals in Gotham! Finally, do you think your family would be proud of you?"
Allie glared at Dick. "They aren't around anymore, so why should I care?"
Allie stood up with her ice cream bowl that was now like ice cream soup, "And thanks for the ice cream, BRO." Allie dumped the soup in his lap and stormed out.
"Well that went well."
