Chapter 2

My ribs had been painfully set and my cuts cleaned. I had MRI'S, X-Rays, CT's and various other test run that they could up with.

My back had some minor muscle damage and my hands and knees had been scrapped up badly but that wasn't my main focus at the moment, my mental shields while still whole and uncracked had bruises all around it. Wincing as I brushed a psychic hand across one of the bruises, I slowly began to heal the bruises, but other than that I was pretty much fine….well if you didn't count being stuck in an unknown universe or was it parallel dimension?

Shaking my head to clear my wayward thoughts I focused in on Batman, he was currently typing something on a little computer that he had dragged close to the bed and had been on for the last fifteen minutes doing god only knew what.

"Do you know why Ma'alefa'ak kidnapped you?" Wonder women asked, her beautiful clear blue eyes staring at me with suspiciously at me and honestly I didn't blame her.

"No, He never told me why he grabbed me." I said, thinking over the whole thing.

Batman stood up from his spot and walked over to me, he held what looked like an iPod, but I wasn't sure if it was or not but it had the same sleek design.

"What is your name?" Batman asked.

"Bianca Olivia Duncan."

"Birthday?"

"May 15, 1989"

"Social security number?"

"398-14-9109"

Nodding he started to type on the screen of the iPod.

"Tell me what happened, "He said a few minutes later.

Nodding I began to tell them everything that had happened that morning while avoiding there gaze not wanting to see the distrust in them.

"They has to be a reason why he would waist all that time and energy to take her." Batman said when I finished talking.

"J'onn said her mind isn't like ours, he can't read it at all." Hawk Girl said from her spot by the door.

"No he couldn't because of my shields but he could hurt me." I said absently as I ran a telepathic scan, looking for the other psychic mind I could feel nearby.

"That can't be the only reason he took her," Green Lantern objective.

"Plus she doesn't look like an ultimate weapons." Hawk Girl added.

I blinked at them in surprise.

"Um….weapon?"

"We heard that Ma'alefa'ak was very close to finding an ultimate weapon that would reveal all of our secrets, our weaknesses and more." Hawk Girl said smiling like she couldn't believe that such a weapon was even real, everyone minus Batman laughed or chuckled.

Everything clicked into place in that moment, and dread filled me at the idea floating through my head.

They were all costumed heroes with secret identities that no one in this world should know but I wasn't from this world…hell I owned a freaking comic book store! I knew all of them better then they knew themselves at this point in time. I knew there past, present and futures, I knew what would happen to who and when; in a way Ma'alefa'ak plan was both simple yet so brilliant that you couldn't no be impressed by it. Knowledge was the greatest weapon of them all and with me being the geek I was, made me all the more powerful in Ma'alefa'ak eyes, now I understood why he kept demanding me to lower my shields, with one telepathic sweep through my mind he would know everything I knew….and given the topic, was a lot.

"I know why he took me." I whispered.

Everyone's attention was completely on me now.

"Where I'm from….you….you guys aren't real." I said hesitantly.

"WHAT!" Hawk Girl demanded and flinching away from her, I held up my hands.

"I'm Sorry," I Said. "But you are. In my world there are no superheroes or villains, no one trying to destroy or invade earth, all we have in means of super powers are a handful of Psychics and Shifters. We have cops, armies and terrorist and stuff like that."

Wonder Women frowned.

"If that's true then why bother going there?"

"You stories or advantages or whatever the hell you want to call them…are kind or printed so anyone with 20 bucks or more can read them." I said.

I watched as that bit of information sink in.

"Are you saying, where you're from we are your form of entertainment." Hawk Girl said very quietly.

"Ye…" I started but suddenly in front of me, I blinked because I hadn't seen her move.

"All are suffering, our sacrifices and losses. Was that for your entertainment as well." She hissed, her eyes narrowing with the force of her anger.

Superman stepped in and pulled her away from me, but I knew that if I didn't say something then Hawk Girl wouldn't rest until she had beaten the snot out of me.

"I didn't mean that the things you all have done or lost doesn't matter, I just said to everyone from my world it isn't real and to everyone else it simply just a story to inspire you children to do the best they can or be good people." I said calmly and watched as the fight left her eyes but there was still some anger there but not at me this time, but at the thought of all the hell she had gone through meant nothing.

"Can you prove this?" Batman asked.

"Yes."
"Then do so." He demanded and eyes narrowing at his tone, I sighed loudly.

"Bruce Wayne, Clark Kent or Kal-El, Princess Diana of themyscira, Hal Jordan, Barry Allen, Shiera Sanders. J'onn J'onzz or John Jones who isn't done here and so is Orin." I said.

Everyone stared at me shocked, I couldn't blame then. I had just rattled off their secret identities like they were a phone number I had memorized. Batman was the first to snap out of it first.

"If our lives are so public knowledge then why did he take you then? Are the most knowledgeable?"

I thought about all those times I would step into my shop and feel the comics information pass through my brain and my mind would memorized it over and over again until it became imprinted inside my brain, all those bits of data everyday on a number of super heroes.

"In a way yes but I'm limited to what is in front of me. But that doesn't explain why he took me and not the authors or editors."

"Maybe J'onn had an idea." Superman said.

Few moments later, the Martian Manhunter appeared in the room, he was taller than a normal human man being at least seven feet tall with green skin and bright red eyes I realized that he and his brother looked almost identical but I just knew that J'onn wasn't Ma'alefa'ak.

"I believe Ma'alefa'ak didn't take her because her shields," Her said his voice sounding deep but also low at the same time, much like Ma'alefa'ak had been but there feelings of danger coming from him. "Ma'alefa'ak must have been taking glimpse into others of her world, and found her. Given what she know Ma'alefa'ak must have decided that she was his weapon."

"Talk about wrong place, wrong time." Hal said.

I turned to stare at Batman.

"You can send me back right?" I asked because if anyone could manage to send me back to my world then it was Batman.

"If you happen to know which plane of existence you come from, along with the exact coordinates, then yes. Otherwise I can't help you." He said, he didn't even bother to look up from his iPod.

'Asshole.' I thought.

"So your saying I'm stuck in a universe were superheroes and villains battle practically every day leaving behind millions of dollars in damage every day, and on top of that I have a crazy Martian after, ready and willing to open my mind and leave behind a husk." I summarized.

"Ma'alefa'ak would know where he took you from," Superman offered but I snorted.

"Right and he's just going to waist all of that hard work to get me just to let me go? Not likely." I said.

Superman to his credit did get discouraged by my words, if anything he became more determined.

"Will catch Ma'alefa'ak and make him tell us. Until then you, you can stay here in the Watchtower were you'll be safe." He said and judging by the look on everyone's face, they weren't okay with Superman's decision, but before anyone could protest Superman spoke again.

"She knows who we are, who we care for, do you really want her running around Gotham or Metropolis unprotected? Where anyone of your enemy's can grab her."

"They wouldn't, not if they didn't know who she is,"Shiera protected.

Superman point a single finger at me.

"Do you really think Ma'alefa'ak will really let her go? Look at what he did to her!" He demanded. "And that was just his doing the kidnapping, imagine what he'll do when he starts interrogating her?"

Silence filled the room as they all thought of what Ma'alefa'ak would possible do if he ever got me alone, fear began to creep up my spine.

"I didn't ask for this." I said loud enough that everyone turn to stare at me.

"I didn't ask to get kidnapped by a crazy ass alien with delusions of grandeur, I just got up and was heading to work." I said as tears pricked my eyes. "I just got the shit knocked out of me, then kidnapped form the only world I have ever known, I have lost pretty much everything but if you don't want me here then I'll leave. I won't stay here if you don't want me here."

Granted I didn't exist her so getting a job would be really hard, plus all I had were the clothes on my back and maybe fifty dollar's, but I would do whatever it took to survive.

"Bianca."

Blinking I saw that Hawk Girl had moved closer to me, and was now standing next to me.

"I'm sorry. For the things I said earlier, but you have to understand that the things you know….there."

"Creepy." I said.

"Dangerous."
