"Deegan is going to be under closer examination in Arkham." Gordon assured Batman and Team Arrow.
"We've secured the docks and made sure that the inmates couldn't cause too much havoc across the city." Black Canary informed them as she and the Birds of Prey, Supergirl and Team Flash showed up.
"That's good." Gordon nodded.
"Hey, has anyone seen Henry?" Mr. Terrific asked as he looked around.
Elsewhere
Sara entered Henry's room in their house before she noticed him with a duffel bag in his hand as he was looking outside the window.
"Henry?" Sara asked. "Are you going somewhere?"
Henry hesitated before sighing deeply. "I… I wish you didn't see what I did."
Sara realized what was he doing. "You don't have to leave. We all lose ourselves sometimes…"
"It's not that." Henry said. "It… I thought I had moved on from what I did… but I guess that darkness still hasn't let go of me." Sara neared him as she noticed the look in his eyes. "I never told anyone what happened, when Barbara had me committed to Arkham. There was a breakout once too. I was hiding, to survive and I didn't want to hurt anyone… but I got into a situation, just like the one with Zsasz and I killed someone-"
"It was self-defense-" Sara tried to assure him.
"Not this time." Henry said. "I… I saw Malcolm, Darhk, Snart and Thawne again and… going back to Arkham made me face the darkest corners of my life and-"
"We can work through this." Sara pleaded, holding his hand. "You're not that person anymore. You did let go of, so stop blaming yourself."
Henry sighed. "It's not… I know that I'm not… it's just that letting people in about things like this has never been easy for me. I found a way to move on, by myself and Nicky and Barbara have always been there for me… but the truth is… it took a while for me to listen.
My first instinct was to deal with it on my own… because I wasn't sure if I could be the friend and brother they love and let them help me deal with my demons at the same time… and I want to try but… I don't know how."
"You'll find a way." Sara assured him as she held his hand as he smiled.
"Why are you still helping me? You don't owe me anything."
"You know why." Sara said with an imploring look before they stared for a moment as they kissed and then the doorbell rang.
Henry opened to see Montoya as he smiled. "Renee."
"Are you alright?" Montoya asked.
"How is he?" Kate asked as Montoya left Henry's house.
"A little in shock but he will be alright." Montoya said. "You put yourself in a risk."
"I'm a big girl, Renee, you know that." Kate assured her as they held hands. "There's a storm coming, though. Something tells me that Deegan was just a beginning."
"What makes you think that?" Montoya asked.
"I found something… interesting in his office." Kate said.
Later
"I hope I never get inside such trouble in an asylum anytime soon." Roy said.
"This was quite a ride, wasn't it?" Dick teased as he was walking down the street with him, Helena and Lisa before Roy's phone rang in his pocket and he picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Roy, it's me. It's Rachel." The young female voice said.
"Rachel?" Roy repeated. "Is everything…"
"It's about my Mom. My real mom. Angela Azarath." Rachel Roth explained.
"What?" Roy asked, disbelieved. "Wait, what do you mean…"
"I found her. She's alive… and I need your help. They have her locked up in an asylum in Lynwood, Illinois. Please. I can't do this without you, Roy." Rachel said.
Probably not my best story but I didn't have many creative ideas with this, regarding Batwoman.
I have some more sequels planned, one with Batwoman spin-off, one focused on Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover and one with Rachel Roth (Raven).
So, what do you guys think?
Please review and let me know if you have been enjoying this story to its end.
