Dear Diary,
We, as in Brainiac and me, are currently in the sky. It really is snowing from those odd machines. Interesting.
So we are in camouflage mode, and we are near the machine that has Robin on it. Ah, he looks cute in tights. I could just look at him all day.
Luna, don't get distracted! Need to help him by throwing that will not hit any heroes. Even if Brainiac wants to aim a missile and blow them all up, I will not allow it.
So we got real close to the thingy and at the right moment I threw the bombs out and it caused a lot of damage but only a couple of explosions grazed a few of the heros. Not that big of a deal. Hey at least I didn't hit Robin.
So there's this high-speed camera on the side of Brainiac. Ehehe. I got him to take lots of pictures of Robin fighting. So now I have lots of action and cool pictures of him. Now I can add them to my albums of him. Yeah, I know I still haven't broken the extreme part of my obsession, but I'm getting better. I stopped following him around the city. I'm becoming normal. Just like how Straw described it, right? Mimicry get a person far in life.
So I couldn't just stay there, watching him. We had to keep going. We sped along and in a couple of hours. We were at Belle Reve. It was still snowing really hard but it's bearable. I stayed inside the Brainiac plane. I called Hugo.
"Who is this? And how do you have this number?" A gruff voice answers it.
"Hugo!" I whined. "It's me, Luna!"
"Oh." Hugo had a nicer tone. "Luna, you're already here? Uh, I'll be right out." I could hear key sounds can be heard then a click.
A couple of minutes later, Hugo was outside of the prison in a heavy coat. I got out, with my backpack and Brainiac transformed into a little box. I placed him in my pocket.
I hugged him. Okay so I kind of forgot to tell you. Over the time, I kept in contact with him. Just emails and such. He tells me interesting stories that happen at the prison and when Uncle Eddie is sent here, he makes sure he doesn't get picked on. He's so nice. Not in the way I feel about Robin but like Daddy nice.
We went inside. He said to the guards that I was his niece. They didn't question him at all.
He lead me to his office and apparently that lady from last time left so he's in charge now. Yeah Hugo!
"How is your father?" He asked and handed me a cup of hot chocolate.
I took a sip and it's good. "He's well uh hm... How do I put it? Normal, I guess?"
"I see. How is school?" He asked, sitting behind his hulking desk.
"Easy enough." I shrugged.
"Why did you want to attend school?" He asked, curious.
"You aren't going to do some weird psycho-mumbo on me are you?" I questioned him but he shook his head. I sighed and gave him a vague answer. "I thought it would be good to interact with those of similar ages. After all, I can't spend the rest of my life knowing only the mannerisms of middle-aged men, right?"
"Hm." He smiled. "Looks like you are spending a bit too much time with us, middle-aged men."
"I didn't mean it that way. I love spending time with you guys. You guys and Aunt Ivy. The she-devil not so much." I told him.
"Why do you not like her?" He asked prodding me.
I puffed up. "I told you! No psycho-mumbo!"
He chuckled and held his hands up in resignation.
I think he likes toying with me. If he got ahold of you, he is going to have a field day with me. Oi.
"Hugo, do you know anything about the weird machines in the sky?" I asked him.
He raised his eyebrow and smiled widely but didn't say anything.
"Does it have anything to due with 5 ice villains?" I stroked my imaginary beard.
"How did you find out about that?" He asked, seriously.
"Uh, I.." I became scared a bit. I am not good with confrontation. "Brainiac."
"Oh." He softened up. "Just keep it a secret, okay?
I nodded and we did a pinky promise to make sure. A pinky promise is a legal binding promise and whoever breaks it will have to do whatever the other person wants and it all depends on the severity. That is the mantra I love by.
I stayed at Belle Reve for a couple more hours. Hugo took me on a tour of the place. I think out of habit, I was just making escape routes in my head. I blame Daddy in this case. Well at least if I was ever in trouble when I get older I'll be safe.
The weird thing was he showed me the security room too and I looked at the monitors with the people on them. I didn't see Doc, which was very strange since he's very easy to spot with that huge dome. So Doc is a part of those weird machines. I just hope he keeps safe.
Hugo told me lots of funny stories that happened at the prison. For example one prisoner got there from robbing stores by pretending to be pregnant, the thing was the prisoner is a man. He apparently is really girly looking and dressed as one to rob people. How funny.
The snow stopped soon after the tour. That was my cue to get home. I kissed Hugo on the cheek and gave him Doc's dome just in case. Then I left for home.
When I got home, something didn't feel right. The lights were on. I cautiously went in there as quietly as I could. Brainiac turned into a bat.
Someone was in the kitchen. I couldn't see who it was and I whacked them. They fell down and I got a good look at him. It was Uncle Eddie.
Oops.
Later when he woke up, he told me he was checking up on me. Thought I was asleep and didn't want to bother me. He thought the note was from Daddy because apparently he is in prison right now. Huh. Why didn't he contact me? Oh well I'll find out in a couple of days. And if he broke out the she-devil... well let's just say I am not speaking to him for a while.
