“Becca? te can't hide forever!”
“Go away Willow!”
“I'm hurting too! te weren't the only one who Lost something!”
“I Lost my friends! My family, Willow! It was MY fault! Everything is my fault! Nothing will ever be the same! te barely knew them but te miss them! I knew them better than I know myself! I'm hurting! Can't te just leave me alone?!”
Willow heard the sound of glass breaking, but left it. Becca was already feeling guilty over what had happened. Nothing was going to change that unless Becca healed. Problem was, Willow didn't know how to help.
“Robin we need to talk.”
The Boy Wonder looked at his mentor on the ride from the mountain. He always dreaded the rides to Wayne Manor but he had a feeling this was going to be the worst.
“What about?”
“Becca.”
Robin tilted his head as he stared at his mentor. He had heard the screams and shouts from Becca's therapy session but he had been ordered to stay away. He would have gone after Becca had they not been dato an immediate training session.
“What's wrong? Is she okay?”
“No. She is dealing with some heavy trauma. We've added Willow, Mercy, and Joy to the team. But Becca is no longer allowed at the Bat Cave, Wayne Manor, o Mt. Justice.”
“What?! Why?!”
“Her trauma has made her dangerous. In the past week she has become più insane than Joker. If this continues, we may have to remove her from Gotham.”
“You can't do that!”
“I can and I will. Becca is not a licensed hero. She takes the law in her own hands and takes as much praise as she can to hide her pain.”
“So she's a bounty hunter?!”
“No. Becca may be a vigilante, but I have a feeling it won't last much longer.”
“You're talking about my girlfriend!”
“No. I'm talking about a potential threat that te are no longer allowed to see.”
“What?! te can't do that! She needs me!”
“What she needs is a therapist! She can't keep going like this! And I can do with te as I please! te are my son and te will not be able to see her until I say so!”
“I'm not your son! I'm nothing like you!”
“Don't talk like that to me!”
“I will! te aren't a hero! You're...you're a fallen marvel!”
Now at the Bat Cave, Robin ran from his mentor, hiding in his room. Batman sat where he was. He had taken down many fiends and had heard a lot of insults. But the one his son threw at him was a pain he had never felt before. He looked down, allowing his face to become as emotional as he felt.
“Go away Willow!”

Yes, that's right, I'm back! And with a special sneak-peek to this Friday's chapter of cuore of Courage!

Red Revenge stepped out of the transporter to find Artemis waiting for him in full costume.
"Didn't take Boy Wonder long to figure out where I live, did it?" he asked, walking past her.
Artemis glared at him, but ran up beside him.
"Let me guess, te want to talk about why I act like a jerk." Revenge said, still not looking at the archer.
"Actually, I thought we could go out for ice-cream." Artemis said.
Duh, duh duh!
