Hauntings part V-Allies
"So you're saying Gordon Tin was dead when te got to his apartment?"
"Actually, he was alive. They were talking when I came in."
"They were talking?"
"It sounded più like arguing. Gordon was yelling when the assassin shot him."
"How did te get in the apartment? Did te have a key? Pick the lock?"
Batgirl stepped in successivo to Robin. "What were they arguing about? Did te hear anything about the Key? The Weapon? Was there any mention of-"
Nightwing cleared his throat. "Why don't we give Mr. Howard a little break. Let him rest."
"Nightwing," Robin contradicted, "he's a witness to a murder."
"Assassination," Batgirl corrected. "And the longer we wait, the più he may forget."
Nightwing gave his siblings a bat-glare, alerting them this was not up for debate. They sighed and filled out of the infirmary. Nightwing nodded to Maddex and began to shut the door behind him, but stopped when he saw SilverWings leaning against the bacheca across from the infirmary.
"Five minutes," he said. She nodded and entered the room.
Maddex sat up straighter as she entered.
Silver thought he looked less threatening then he had with his sais pointed at her, but she didn't feel completely at ease.
The open button-down camicia he had changed into partially revealed the bandage that encased his shoulder. He had been stripped of his armor and a dagger they had found in his boot. Maddex now looked like little più than a teenage boy.
"Why am I here?" Maddex asked.
"For your protection," Silver answered automatically.
"From what?"
She hesitated, unsure of how much to tell him.
"Ever heard of the Key?"
"Batgirl mentioned it before, but I hadn't heard of it before now. What is it, exactly?"
"It's a lista of people. A kill list."
"What does that have to do with me?"
"Gordon Tin is on the list."
"Why?"
Silver shrugged. "I'm not sure."
"And a friend of yours is also on this list?"
"Why would te assume that?" It was a reasonable inference, one she herself would have made.
"I'm just looking for some connection between te and this list." He is looking at all sides of this, Silver thought, Like any good detective. Her suspicion of him was growing, and the little trust she had felt toward him was dropping. She decided the less he knew the better.
"You think quickly for someone with 15 milli-grams of morphine in their system."
It was his turn to hesitate, as if he had detto something wrong and was trying to think of a way to fix it.
"Gordon was a good friend of mine," Maddex detto quietly. "I just want to find out why he was killed."
"So do we." There was a moment of silence.
"He had a family," he said, looking away from me. "A wife, Amelia. And their daughter, Rosy." Silver nodded, remembering the picture.
"That little girl's going to grow up without her father. She may not remember him. She's only three." His voice dropped to almost a whisper. "I put on that good to stop things like this."
"So you're a vigilante?"
"Yeah," he chuckled without humor. "Some vigilante. Can't even stop the one thing fight for."
"The death of the innocent."
Massed nodded.
You don't have to trust someone to agree with them, she decided. "I can't guarantee te vengeance, but I can promise you, justice will be served."
Maddex nodded again. He laid back as if he had finally dato up his resistance against the sedative drug that coursed through his vanes.
Silver took her cue. "Good bye, Dex." She left quietly, shutting the door softly behind her.

“When we take revenge against another, we lose some of our innocence”, that’s what they tell me. So I guess I Lost all of my innocence. Oh well, I Lost it early, might as well have gotten rid of it. See people throw random Citazioni everywhere, a lot of them don’t seem to apply to me.
“When te get knocked down, pick yourself up and brush yourself off,” I pull the legs of the person who pushed me, bringing them down too.
“It takes 42 muscles to frown, 17 to smile, and 4 to punch, punzone the person,” And it only takes 4 più to snap their necks.
Catch my drift? Good.

And this is my story.

Eclipses POV
I knew it, I knew it would happen but why like this? I knew they would find me but to go that far just to get me back, back to being what I was…Man-Made, back to having someone’s signature carved into my body forever. I told them I was natural, 100% mutant. But I lied about every word about my past and I lied to such good people now worse has come to worst, my Friends are dead o so I thought and the biggest secret I could ever hold burst out like some one who had jus pulled the trigger on a gun then they had to sit and watch as the man who made me finished his greatest master piece...Me! But of corse, one of my souls biggest wish came true, Alice became me and I became Alice but after all that Eclipse, I had to pay the price which could only be paid……in blood but in the end no one wins.

“Hey Jim!” I called out.
“Good Morning Miss Orname!” the worker called back.
I grinned widely and continued my walk through the construction yard. Up ahead was the crown jewel White stella, star Lines had been working on: the Titanic. Unsinkable, the largest ship ever, and it was going to bring a lot of money to my dad and he could retire and sposta back to Scotland.
My name is Tiana Orname and this is one heck of a story of my life.
