I got out of the hospital letto and winced in pain. My ribs still hurt, but my arm was a bit better. In the hall, domanda and Huntress were waiting for me.
“Where is everyone?” I asked
“They all went home” Huntress said, getting up.
“Then why are te still here?” I pondered
“The least we could do is give te a ride home” Huntress smiled
“So, how are we getting there?” I asked. They walked out to the parking lot up to a blue vintage looking car.
“This, is how we’re getting te home” domanda said, opening the door. I hopped in the back seat, while Huntress and domanda got in the front. He started up the car and drove off.
“So, where do te live anyway?” Huntress asked
“Mount Justice” I said. We drove off quickly, heading straight to Happy Harbor. I watched as the scenery raced by. We arrived quickly at the mountain. I jumped out.
“Thank te for the drive” I smiled
“Night, before te go, I wish to know the real reason why te faced down Superman” domanda said
“I already told you, I’m not good with psychopaths” I turned to him
“Yet, I heard from Shayera te disarmed one of Joker’s bombs” he pointed out.
“So, what’s your point?” I demanded
“Joker is a psychopath, so te obviously have no conflict with them” domanda responded
“Maybe I don’t have a conflict with psychopaths, maybe I do. What’s I to you!?” I yelled. He was getting under my skin. Too close to the core.
“Maybe it’s not that te have a conflict with psychopaths, it’s that te have a conflict with your loyalty” He continued.
“Shut up!” I yelled. He hit the treasure chest under the big red X. I ran to the mountain and hid in the shadows. I heard Huntress shout as I ran through the door into the mountain. I sat silently in my room and listened to my i-Pod. The song Sweet Sacrifice da Evanescence came on. I started to hum along when someone loudly knocked on my door. I opened it. Kalder was waiting there. He started to say something, but I couldn’t hear him. I took out my headphones, but I still couldn’t hear him. He started to fade. An image of twin old women appeared in his place. My ex-masters.
“He will die in seven days” detto one. I woke up with a gasp. I heard a scream. I ran down the hall towards it. It was a girl with red hair. She was kneeling over Kalder’s unmoving body, shaking.
“What’s happened!?” I demanded
“It’s Kalder. He fell into a coma!” the girl said, emotion clogging her voice.
“Where is everyone?” I asked
“They all went home” Huntress said, getting up.
“Then why are te still here?” I pondered
