Vella speaks up. " Hm some one's talkative today, and a bit morbid too." She smiles. " We'll just bring him back with the dragon balls when they regenerate in some months." I see Jason wince.. at her saying that.
Must be nice to be live that people always come back... then again Superman was dead...Conner was dead... I look across this graveyard, and I see a Flash that used to be dead. Why can't the man that my father made me kill as a kid come back?
Supergirl um bounces up to me. " Hey! Batty I was going to ask you if you need a new member Well I can help ya out."
" I don't... know When I lead Legacy someone died. ... Not sure if I want to lead anymore.
" Oh bat angst nice. Well here keep my number, and call me when you're recruiting. "
Great I can barely read her number.I guess I could get Vincent to read it... but I haven't seen him in a few days. After that was over, and I had my share of dirty looks from Anthony Stark Jr.
Later at the Batcave... I sit Staring... at the computer.Wishing Batman were here.. So I could talk ..or Nightwing or Robin. Or someone besides the annoying Damian Kid Or Jason...
Ugh Why does Batman have to vanish every once in a while? As I sit thinking... I don't notice. Somone walk in. " Wow it's unusual for someone to sneak up on you."
I sigh. " Not another alternate universe or ... um reboot."
" Nope it's me no universe reboot or anything Cass." Barbara smiles.
I grab her and hug her. "You can walk again!" her body language is a little weird about it though. " Hey while the boys are wherever. why don't we protect Gotham?get into costume."
This is weird... I was always told that if Barbabra walked again she'd take the Batgirl name from me But she wants to um team up.. I should have known.. she's never really been that um mean to me. So I'm ready.
We went swinging through the city. Until we saw this weirdo in a moth suit.
He's strange looking.
"ohhh man I don't be live it! My old pal Killer Moth!" Babs laughs "I thought you were run out of this city years ago! robbing a bank? Really? Wow! Like old times."
" Who's this Batgirl? Your ugly little sister?" Moth guy spits.
" Sister ? Soon yes. Ugly no. It's actually too bad she hides herself behind that mask anywhoo We'll just kick your butt now."
All these guys dressed like moths try to attack us. I beat them down while Barbara charges Killer Moth Whiles she's not a as good a fighter as I am, she didn't do all that bad.
I watched her back knocking out the guns from henchman's hand is or just knocking out sneak attackers. Then all of the sudden there was a popping sound and Barbara fell in a heap.
" I don't know what happened to you batgirl
I um step in front of the moth man and Barbara. "Oh what are you going to do tiny?"
I break his arm, and leave him tied up for the police, I swing Barbara, out of there.
" Ah stupid exoskeleton!" Babs yells.
" you can't walk?" i ask.
" No it was an exoskeleton made to look like my suit I was I ... well I just wanted to go out one last time. After the Weirdo with the Cosmic Cube made me Batgirl again Seems dumb huh?"
" No... Why did you want me to come along?" I um question.
" Well you always were like a student to me I guess I just wanted. To fight along side you for once if I stayed Batgirl you'd be my sidekick now." She laughs.
" No I'm the better... fighter." I say. " You're just the pretty one."
" Hey! I' m the brains! You're the brawn! Just take me back to the Clock Tower." She sighs.
" What did you mean you would be my sister?" I ask.
" I'm marrying Nightwing remember?"
" Well you'll be... better than my real one."
Hey Bruce, Tim, Dick, Jason, and me are your real family. David Cain only wanted to use you as a weapon. Family isn't always about blood."
After taking Barbara back to the clock tower. Nightwiing tries to give me an um Pep talk about leading a super team.
I guess I feel a little better Now after talking with Dick. Inertia did um... make his choice to sacrifice himself.
i return home.. and find a Vincent waiting on me asleep.
I guess it's a good thing... Bruce isn't here.... he wouldn't like me bringing Vincent up to my room.
