Becoming the Red Hood

[Akira Lamay Corvenus]

Hands went up in the air, a soft laugh left her lips as she looked at Bruce. Or well “Batman.” He didn’t look to happy. The female just laughed as she looked at him. “You don’t give up do you?” He asked as he looked at her. Lila smirked and shook her head. “You’ll believe Me when you want. But I’ll be honest, you could use me B-man.” It was all a facade, Batman didn’t really need her, but she sure as hell needed him.

John Constantine only had one ‘sidekick’ in his life and that was her.
Lila, she had been right by his side until his latest death... or better yet his true death. But life hadn’t gone well after he left. She ended up in the wrong crowd and was begging to get out. The femme fatale turned and dashed off the building. “Call me!” She cooed as she flew off into the distance.

Lila raced back to her small apartment, stopping at the store to get some food before she headed up the stairs. Her apartment was small, and in a beat up neighborhood. She unlocked her door and walked in, flicking on the lights. “You will need to learn to wait until I dismiss you.” A deep voice echoed. Lila jumped and turned seeing Batman there. A smile filled her lips as she nodded.

Bruce stepped in to Mount Justice, Lila at his heels. He was bringing her into the team, at least as a start. “Red arrow please call everyone in.” Bruce said to Roy, who nodded and called everyone over to Bruce. “What’s wrong and who is this?” Roy asked, looking Lila up and down. Roy didn’t like new people to much, Lila didn’t seem to bad but he still didn’t like it.

Bruce introduces Lila, letting the team know that she was the new weapons and tech specialist, and also a part of the team for now. Once he was he done he left her there to meet the team and get settled in. Roy walked up to her first. “How’d you come to be?” He asked crossing his arms over his chest.

The Darkness just eats away at us…….

name / age / description / occupation / history

Cecile Blake / 20 / 5’1, long red hair usually in a braid, pale skin with emerald green eyes, small dusting of freckles across her nose, slim build but stronger then she looks, gun always strapped to a thigh holster no matter where she is, bartender and small time crook / Cecile grew up on the streets taking care of her druggie mother. She used to be best friends with Jason Todd and would help him steal parts off of cars until he went and became a big shot with the Wayne family. She now bar tends in Noonans and still partakes in the crime life of Gotham City

Sophia Wayne / 27 / 5'7, blue eyes, long black curly hair, works out once a day and eats healthy, has an identical twin / CEO of Wayne Industries along with Bruce, and Richard / Left on the doorstep of Wayne Manor when they were only a few weeks old Bruce Wayne found out that they were biologically his children and brought them into his home and raised them. Sophia was born with unlimited magical ability due to her DNA being experimented on by Amanda Waller, she is part of the Justice League and is the current team leader and trainer of the Teen Titans. Computer genius and nighttime vigilante named Nova.

Richard Wayne / 27 / 5'10 blue eyes and black hair, fair skin / CEO of Wayne Industries along with Bruce and Sophia. Rarely present due to his nighttime activities / Left on the door step of Wayne Manor when they were a few weeks old, Dick is completely human, incredibly talented acrobatic and computer genius, vigilante known as Nightwing. Helps teach the Teen Titans along with Nova.

Jason Todd / 23 / 6'0 blue eyes, red hair that he dyes black / Criminal / Jason was found on the streets after attempting to steal the wheel off of the bat mobile, Batman caught him and took him to a school for disadvantaged boys which was also a front for criminal activity. Jason soon was brought into the Bat family and took over as Robin after Dick became Nightwing at Superman's urging. He was then killed by the Joker and came back to life a few years later. Vowing vengeance again the Joker he followed in Batman's steps and trained like he did. He is now back in Gotham.

Richard looked at the young woman that Batman had brought in with him, Batman hadn't taken on anyone knew since Jason. This would be interesting to see, and it would be the first female he partnered up with since Babs and Nova. He hopped up and walked over to Batman, "Do you want her with this team or the Teen Titans? If you want her with the Titans we need to contact Nova to get a room ready." he rolled his shoulders as he opened up his mind to Nova so she could see the new sidekick that Batman had brought in. He felt her chuckle as she thought the same thing he had. This was going to be interesting.


When people accessed their connection with her it was always like a soft knock before she allowed them into her mind, with Richard it was different. They were always connected unless he used the blocks she had taught him to put up when they where children. She was reading through reports for Wayne Industries when she felt him in her mind, showing her the new sidekick. She chuckled as she flipped a page and studied the graph. No way. That's Constantine's girl. This is going to be great. she spoke to him and then put her own blocks up as she thought about Jason, her other brother, the one no one had been able to save. Her heart tripped over but she tampered it down and kept moving through the files.

Cecile Blake looked across the crowded bar as she wiped down the bar counter. It was quieter then normal which meant that a deal was going down and all the gangs were preoccupied with it. She was in skin tight skinny jeans and a black crop top, her belly button piercing glittered in the low light of the bar and her braid swung behind her as she moved, the gun she always wore clearly visible to everyone on her thigh. Her ears peaked up as the bar door at Noonans opened up. She glanced at the stranger that entered and felt a memory try to pull up. "Hey stranger what can I get you?" she asked as he approached the bar.

Todd walked into the down and dirty bar that was Noonans and looked at the girl behind the counter,m something about her was fimilar but he couldn't place it just yet. "Scotch." he said as he sat down on one of the many bar stools. Tonight his plan would go into action. Tonight Bruce Wayne and his god forsaken family would get a wake up call. The drink was placed in front of him and he took a quick sip. "Where is the deal going down?" he asked her.

Bruce looked at Richard and shook his head. “No, she’s gonna spend a few days maybe weeks with them and then I’m taking her under my wing.” He paused and crossed his arms watching the new girl laugh and chat with the others. “She needs a savior, I might not have been able to save him, but I will save her.” The brooding male looked back to Richard. “Tell your sister dinner is at 6, Lila will be joining us.”

And speak of the She wolf. Lila walked back over to Bruce and now Richard “no way!” She softly squealed as she looked at Nightwing. “Your a lot taller in person. Sorry... big fan.” She paused again pushing her glasses up, she was running specs on Richard. She than gasped, “wait, can she see me too?! Omg, hey, hi miss Wayne, huge fan, you probs don’t remember me, I inturned at Wayne Corp 3 years back.” It was true she was a huge fan of them. Sophia inspired her to get better with hacking and computer stuff in general, where Richard taught her how to be strong.

“Don’t get too crazy, you’ll be joining us for dinner, change into something nice.” Bruce spoke as he looked at her attire. Lila was wearing ripped black skinny jeans a band tee and a leather jacket. Which caused him to be a bit concerned about what she was going to show up in. Bruce turned to Richard and patted his shoulder. The man was still a mess, he wasn’t sure if he should take Lila in, but it was too late to back out now.

Once they left Lila went back to her apartment to get dressed, stopping outside of a random beat up bar to feed some cats.

Roy watched the new girl and laughed softly to himself. He was getting ready to leave himself and head over to Sophia. It was a good day so far and was about to get better once he saw the love of his life, though he wouldn’t say that out loud. The red head moved to his car speeding off to his set location.

Once there he headed up to the top floor. “The new girl is a big fan. It’s kind of cute.” He teased as he knocked and then opened the door to her office. Roy was always respectful of Sophia’s job, Hell he had one too but he didn’t love it like she loved hers. Roy was dressed to kinda impress, killing the game with that slightly bad ass boy look. A smile filled his lips as he watched her at work.

Cecile looked a the man and something about his face clicked in her head, "Get out. Jason Todd." she humphed as she put the bottle of cheap scotch back on the line, she turned back around to him and shrugged, "I have no clue what you are even talking about." she wiped down the counter and then put her rag back in the bleach bucket on the floor. "Must be killing you to slum it with the rest of us." her childhood best friend just walked into her bar. What a kick in the ass.

At his name his hand went to the gun at his side and he studied the woman in front of him, "Who the hell are you?" he asked as he finished the scotch and then turned the cup upside down on the counter.
"I shouldn't take offense to that because I have gotten marginally hotter since the last time you saw my scrawny ass, but I do. Cecile Blake." she leaned against the counter and noticed that two of her patrons had also pulled out guns and were studying Jason intently. She shot them a look but they completely ignored her. Damn it.
Oh shit. This girl had helped him take the tires off of the damn bat mobile. he shook his head as that memory tore into his mind. "Another life. I was told you knew were the shipment of Kryptonite was going down. Where. Now." he slapped down a rubber banded wad of bills and his gun on the counter. "I won't be leaving until I get that information."

"Hey hey hey. Little miss- keep the real names in a vault in your head when we are in uniform. Easier that way. Not everyone knows who everyone else is." he was a little taken aback by Lila's attitude with him and his sister, but he was just going to go with it. It might cheer up the Manor a little more. He watched Batman and Lila walk back out of the Hall of Justice and sent a quick text to Sophia. Change of plans sis, dinner at 6. Get a room ready for the newbie she'll be bunking in the tower with you for a few weeks. He went over to the boom tube and typed in his home location and stepped through.

Sophia's phone went off and she spared it a quick glance, and then looked at the time. She had an hour. She could get through a few more of the files that needed attention and maybe even employee elevations if she focused. Being the only Wayne that actively ran the business left a lot of things to do in her hands, on top of her Justice League duties and training the Teen Titans. She pressed a hand to the bridge of her nose as she started to feel a headache growing. Focus. she breathed out and then dived back in. And then there was a knock on her office door and she heard Royace's voice as he walked in. "PLATO pause reports and save." "Of course ma'am." the voice floated out of the speakers in the room. "Hey baby, been busy?" she let her eyes wander over his body taking in the muscles and the bad boy clothes and had a shiver go up her back. It always amazed her that she got lucky with him.

Once Lila was done with the cats she made her way up to her apartment. She had to get ready for dinner. Which was going to be hard since all she ever wore was skinny jeans a band tee and combat boots, and of course a leather jacket to match. Her black hair hung in a loose pony tail. “Well this is hard. And here I thought no magic, memento Mori...”

Her hands flicked out, eyes shifting black as she used her powers to create a dress from fabric she had in front of her. It was a simple but classy black dress that she matched with some stockings and booties. She quickly did her hair and makeup before heading down to the bar where her friend was.

As soon as Lila walked in she could feel the shift in the air. Hands at the ready, a slight glow to them as she was ready to use her powers. “Everything okay Cece?” Lila asked as she stood at the side enterance looking the male up and down before looking to her friend.

John was making his rounds, or at least he should have been. Tonight was his ‘night off.’ A rare day where he didn’t have to be the green lantern. The male looked at himself in the mirror, finishing up his shave. He was getting ready for a quiet night on the town. Maybe go to a couple bars and have a few drinks, maybe just go for a meal. He didn’t know the possibilities were endless.

After he was dressed the male headed out getting in his car and going for a drive.

Cece turned and grabbed the bottle of scotch again and and flipped his cup back over, she looked at the cash and the gun and then looked over at the two men with there guns, "Double the price and shoot the guy on the right in his hand. He likes to hit girls and I don't like that type of scum in my bar." she finished pouring and then out of the corner of her eye saw Lila. "No we're good L, Jay here," she cocked her head to the man in front of her, "He's just doing me a quick favor and taking out the trash for me." she turned back to Jason and raised her eye brow as she watched him think about it. She didn't like dragging the girl into her business, Cecile's crimes where just that. Cecile's. And Lila was no criminal as much as she had liked to try, she was the hero type.
Jason watched as the amber liquid filled up his shot glass and his eyes shot up to her green ones when she mentioned shooting the guy in the hand. This whole anti hero anti villain thing was already going so well. He rolled his shoulders and downed the shot in one gulp before standing up moving to the table and grabbing the scums arm and he held it down while he shot into the palm of his hand. His partner got up quickly and drew the gun on Jason but he brought up his foot and slammed it into his chest throwing the other guy back into the wall. He looked at the man screaming in pain as his blood ran down their conjoined arms, "I don't like pimps, so I don't like you. Hit someone again and I'll shoot out your other hand." he let go of the mans arm and watched him drop to the floor in disgust. He walked back over the bar, everyone's eyes on him and pulled out another wad of cash and tossed it down next to the other one. "Where Blake."
"Dixon Dock- lower side. The Bertinelli Family is the seller, they'll have eyes on a roof top watching the buy go down." she picked up the money and thumbed through it quickly. "I don't know who the buyer is, but if it is really Kryptonite you know who's going to show up for it along with the other parties."
Jason grabbed a towel and cleaned off his hand heading towards the door, "Useful information." he glanced at the woman in the side entrance and noticed the faint glow around her hands, and her attractive face. Damn, no time to flirt with this one "I'm counting on them showing up Cecile. I'm counting on it." and then he walked out of the bar.

When Richard got to his base of operations he flipped the scanner on and changed out of the Nightwing gear, he pressed a button and it went onto the form that was made for it. He walked in his boxer up to the upper level, grabbing a bottle of water as he passed one of the mini fridges in his apartment hallway. The door to the lower level slid shut behind him and concealed it's self as he walked to his bedroom to change quickly. "P what time is it?" PLATO which was installed at all the Wayne residences and on all of their personal devices, and cars, responded. "5:15 sir." Richard walked into his bedroom and caught a glance at his sons picture on his nightstand. "Humph." Right now Spencer had Xander out of the country for some "bonding time" to say he was jealous was an understatement but he was going with the flow and was just waiting for them to come back to Gotham. He quickly changed into a button up and pressed black pants, and his god forsaken dress shoes that he hated. He ran his fingers through his hair and called it good before having PLATO bring up his motorcycle from the garage.

Lila watched on as the exchange went on. Her hands went back to normal before she looked back to CeCe. “That was weird, anyway here is rent” the female spoke as she set down cash for CeCe. She brushed her hair back before bending down and grabbing some off its charger, placing it behind her ear, then placing her glasses on the doc so they could charge. “I’m gonna be out for a bit. Text me if you need anything.” She said as she stood and fluffed her dress a bit moving passed the bar and out the door. She had a bit of a walk to make.

The door opened up softly, “Richard?” Spencer’s voice rang through as her and their son walked in. Xander quietly walked into the house, the ten year old walked over to the side table and plugged in his Q pad, before sitting on the couch. He was always a quiet kid, even more so now as he tried to tame the beast that was inside of him. Spencer tossed off her shoes, watching them move to the closet. “Babe we are home.” She said as she walked into the bedroom seeing him getting dressed. “Hot date?” She teased as she looked at him. It was nice to be back home.

John stepped in to a beaten up bar, he didn’t mind though, he just wanted a drink. The male sat down at the bar, “can I get a double on the rocks.” He asked the red head bartender. She was hot, though the gun on her thigh meant she didn’t fuck around. He reached in his pocket and set a 50$ on the table, “of your finest please. I’m John by the way.” John wasn’t going to waste time either, it was gonna be a good relaxing night as long as it was low pro and this place seemed perfect. He looked up at the female, tired eyes watched her.


Roy looked up at Sophia “yes, but I’m free now.” He said as he stepped closer to her. His fingers gently lifted her chin. “It’s not fair to ogle me in public when I can’t do the same.” He said bringing His lips closer to hers, stepping away just before they touched. “Did you need me for something babe?” He asked with a dirty smirk.

Richard heard the door open and then the soft footsteps and Spencer appeared in the doorway, a smile grew on his faced as he fixed the collar on his shirt, "The hottest." he bent down and gave her a quick kiss on the lips as he went to walk passed her. "You're back early." he headed down the hall and into the main living room, "Hey champ. I missed you." he knelt down in front of the couch and gave the boy a smile.

Sophia-- Sophia clicked her tongue against her cheek as Roy rocked back on his heels, she leaned back in her chair, "No actually, I have a few things to get through and then we have dinner at the Manor." she tapped the desk again and pulled up the evals that needed completed. "You need to take a few moments anyway and catch up on Queen Consolidated News." she smirked herself as she started reading the hologram.

The smell of water wafted up to him as he crouched on top of the building, the breeze ruffled his hair, he reached behind him and pulled over the red mask. He adjusted his gun against his side and settled down for the buy. It wouldn't happen until later into the night, but he wanted to watch all the players arrive. God Cece what a trip down memory lane he didn't need at the moment. God that woman that was just a trip he didn't need all together.

Cece picked up the rent money from the girl and gave her a quick smile before turning back to the tall dark man that had taken a seat. She turned around and grabbed a glass and the liquor that he wanted. She turned back around and heard a whimper which reminded her about the man that was shot she turned and gave them a cool look, "Get the hell out of my bar. And keep what was said in your thoughts." she winked as she gave them a quick smile. She turned back to the man and started his drink, "All righty John, you don't look like you belong on this side of town." she gave him a quick once over and her eyes lingered on the muscles that she could see, and appreciate.

Xander looked up at his dad, a smile filled his lips as he reached in his pocket. He pulled out a clear as the ocean crystal. “Look what I found.” He spoke super soft leaning a bit closer to his dad. Spencer stood against the door way and watched the two interact. She loved both of them so much and hated taking Xander out of the country, but he needed to learn to control his powers.
She wasn’t going to put him through what she went through.

“And who is this hot date, should I be jealous?” She called from the bedroom as she pulled off her button down. Her back was laced with scars, all from her past.

Lila had made it to Wayne manor soon enough, about 5 minutes early. She stood outside staring at the wonderful manor she had heard all about. The dark haired female pulled out her phone standing up on the steps to take a quick picture. “This is soooo cool!”
She cooed as she looked at the pictures she took. She sat on the stairs waiting for it to be the right time for her to head in.

John looked back at the other male that whimpered as he walked out of the bar. His eyes then turned back to Cece as she poured his drink. “There are only 3 things I want tonight. A good drink, check, a beautiful woman to spend my night with, check, and a nice quiet place. Which happens to be a check for now.” The male spoke before pulling off his jacket, showing his muscles more.

Roy chuckled, “I got fully caught up earlier.” He said as he sat down in front of her crossing his ankles as he sat, relaxing a bit. “What the dinner for?” He asked as he looked at her up and down. Damn, this woman just got better and better with age. He leaned forward a bit, “Miss Sophia Wayne, when are you going to marry me?” He half teased as he looked at her.

"Yeah if you think Bruce is hot. Actually there is a cutie that Bruce is taking under his wing, total fan of Nightwing." he called out to her before turning his attention back to the boy, "I know you just got back but you wanna go have dinner with everyone?" he asked softly.

Sophia approved the first evaluation and flipped to the next one then with a sigh because she knew she wasn't going to get anymore work done she spoke, "Computer save data and send to home units for further work." now she turned her full attention back to Roy. "He just wants to introduce the new girl to the family. See if it goes okay." he grabbed her Q-phone, pad and purse slipping the latter items into the bag. "Miss Sophia Wayne, when are you going to marry me?" reached her ears she smirked as she looked up at him, some of her long black hair falling into her face. "As soon as you ask the right way."

"You think this is a quiet place?" Cece chuckled as she put back the bottle of liquor, "Honey you would be in for a ride if you had come in on any other night." she turned back to him and gave him a long look, trying to figure out how another damn goody two shoes ended up in Noonans, "Bit presumptuous that you have a beautiful woman to spend the night with when I don't see one in sight." she leaned back against the counter that held the liquor bar and crossed her arms over her chest.

Alfred moved down the hallway to Bruce's office silently. The cooks had finished dinner and his children were late. Not surprising in anyway actually, busy bees were his two children. Alfred thought of both Sophia and Richard as his children, just as much as Bruce . A quick, brisk knock and then he entered his employers officer. "Sir. Dinner is to be severed in thirty minutes." he spoke slowly and softly and then waited for Bruce to respond to him.

[Akira Lamay Corvenus]

Bruce looked up at Alfred, “thank you” he spoke as he moved away from his computer. “Is Lila here?” He asked as he moved out of his office following Alfred. His kids weren’t here yet, which was fine, since he was busy. Bruce hadn’t been the same since Jason had died. He walked over to the door and opened it up, seeing Lila sitting there quietly. “You know you could just knock.”

Lila jumped when she heard Bruce behind her. The female stood turning around towards him. “Sorry I got here early, and kinda panicked so I stayed out side.” The female let out a nervous laugh. Bruce ushered her in, and began showing her around, starting with the bat cave.

“That’s too Main Stream for me.” Roy teased as he looked at Sophia. Oh he was going to ask her, just not yet. He had a big plan for them but it was still in the works. He first needed to get Bruce on his side. It had been a very rocky road the last few years but now they were here, in the perfect place. He looked down at his clothes, “is this okay for dinner? If not I will have to change.” He said holding his hand out for her to take.

John gave a chuckle at her comments, “So far this place is perfect.” He paused as he set his glass down, it was now empty. “You should give yourself more credit, your a very lovely woman.” He looked her in the eyes when he spoke, trying not to make her think he was a creep flirting with her. If she really didn’t like it he would stop.

“Is mom coming?” Xander asked his dad as he stood, putting the crystal in his pocket. Spencer had just stepped out of the room, fully dressed and ready to go. She moved over to Xander when she heard him say that. “Honey, what did I tell you, that was a long time ago baby. We aren’t going anywhere.” She spoke as she knelt down to look at him. Xander nodded before he ran off to go change. Spencer stood and looked at Richard, “I think we might need Sophia to bind his powers...” she said softly to him. Their son was getting stronger by the day.

Dick looked back down at his son, and considered it. "Buddy that was all in the past, we are okay now." Apparently not far enough in the past he thought as the boy took his hand. "PLATO please bring up the 4Runner" he looked over at his wife and spoke, "We can ask her tonight, she may be open to working with him more before going that way though."

"Bruce already doesn't like you very much, and you want to show up looking like a biker?" Sophia scoffed as she stood up and grabbed her phone, and her personal Q-pad gave him a sunny smile and let her power free, using it to transport both of them to Wayne Manor. She brushed off the left side of her dress she was wearing attempting to get the wrinkles out of it. With a small sigh she gave it up and then looked back at Roy. "So much quicker then driving, but not as much fun as Boom Tubes." she offered her hand as she adjusted the strap to her bag.

He sifted slightly as he saw movement on an adjacent rooftop and he studied the sniper that the Bertinelli Family had sent to scope out the area. He's not even checking other buildings roofs or behind him. Lazy and arrogant The Red Hood moved again watching the sniper work. Criminals were about to get a wake up call, and so was the Bat Family.

Cece grabbed the bottle again and twisted it upside down pouring the amber liquid into the glass, she had a small smile on her face as he spoke. Normally she didn't give in and flirt with the men that came into this bar unless she could get information from them or get a favor out of them. Cece was the information highway in Gotham, there wasn't a lot that she didn't know. And there wasn't a lot that she didn't see going on. But something about the olderman in front of her was different and she wasn't going to flirt for information this time. "Alright John, what do you do for a living?"

Bruce saw the batcomputer light up once Roy and Sophia were in the manor. He watched as Lila looked over the suits he had lined up. “We are in the bat cave.” He spoke over the innercom. He then turned back to Lila, “John really never wanted you to build him a suit?” He asked the girl as she turned around. “Yeah, He said they were ‘too high tech and not my thing’ he liked to keep things simple.” She spoke, coping his welsh accent.

Lila had her tech system running. The device behind her ear not only helped her when she was fighting but also had her system running at all times. It did numbers for her, helped her keep trace of her powers, it use to also keep her in touch with John. Her face changed for a moment as she thought about her old mentor. But she quickly shook it off and put a smile on her face as he continued to show her around.

Roy chuckled slightly as he looked at Sophia, they were now at Wayne manor. “Well it’s a good thing I always bring a suit with me.” He spoke as he pulled out a nicely folded box from his bag. “I’ll be right back.” He said as he kissed her cheek and moved towards a bathroom where he could change.

Once Sophia was alone it was time. ”Sophia! Sophia!” John Constantine’s voice echoed through the hall to Sophia. He began walking towards her, just a ghost of himself. “Sophia, it’s been a while. I don’t have much time, but we need to talk.” It was true they needed to talk he had to tell her about Lila.

“I fight crime.” The words left his lips simply before he brought the glass to his lips and sipped the burning liquid, “my question, what is your name.” He asked her, his vibrent green eyes looked up at her, again looking her in the eyes, though he snuck a few looks at her body when he could, she was fine as hell.

Spencer looked a little worried as she talked with Richard, “okay he can train with Sophia, but only if you agree that she will bid his powers until he is ready, if the training doesn’t work.” Spencer was very scared for her child, her powers nearly killed her, so what would or could his powers do to him. She exhaled deeply, “I took him to see the mother...” she said to Richard softly. The mother was the Amazoness of the tribe who raised her. The tribe that helped her control the Cat once she got out of bel rev. “Mother says he is strong, even stronger then Sophia... or well he could be.” Mother had warned her about having kids, but Spencer thought she was safe since Richard was human...

Richard heard a beep from his Q-phone and knew that they were running a little bit behind and so he ushered the two into the elevator and pressed the controls for the lower level. "I don't think the tribe is wrong Spence, but I still want to let the master of all things magical and otherworldly have some input. Sophia's just been waiting for us to ask before offering any advice, she didn't want to step on your toes. But she is still going to want to test his powers again and try and train before jumping to binding and you know that." the elevator doors opened to the 4Runner already running and waiting for them to get into.

Sophia smiled as Bruce's voice floated over the intercom and Roy walked away from her to go and change, and that's when she felt it. The hallway got a little colder and she could feel her power tugging at her to go into a different dimension. She closed her eyes and heard John's voice yelling her name, she focused on him and let herself be pulled into the same plain as he was. God damn it John, where have you been? I've been crossing over twice a week since you died looking for your ass. Do you know how many plains I've searched for you in? she said as she opened her spiritual eyes and looked her friend dead in the eye.

I fight crime with that she stiffened up slightly and then took a closer look at his face, and his unnaturally green eyes. God damn it Cece, how did you not notice the eyes. she was mentally kicking herself as she looked to make sure that no one was in hearing range and then leaned in a little closer to him, "Fifteen years with the ring and it makes your eyes unnaturally green, I know who you are John. And if anyone knew that a Green Lateran dropped into Noonans you'd be in huge trouble." she chewed her bottom lip as she thought about what to do. I fight crime just kept floating threw her head. He was too much of a goodie two shoes for the likes of her and here she was flirting with him. "Cecile." she mumbled softly, "I won't let anyone know you were in here, and that will be free of charge."

“Honestly Cecile, tonight I don’t care about anything other then the few drinks you pour me.” John spoke closing his eyes and looking down at his drink as he finished it. It was his one night off and she had already figured out who he was. “Your sharp, who taught you?” He asked her as she grabbed out more cash, “you got a cook back there?” He asked her softly.

Spencer exhaled deeply and nodded, sitting next to Xander, brushing her sons hair back. She needed to trust Richard and Sophia, and she wanted to. But the beast inside of her was roaring for her to grab her kid and run. Eyes flickered to the cat, looking at Richard quickly before going back to what they should be. Soon enough they were at the manor. Spencer hopped out and smiled softly, she walked over to Richard wrapping her arm around his waste.

“There’s no time Sophia, I’m sorry I truely am. Tell Lila I hear her calling me and she has to stop.” He spoke quickly when she finally appeared, before he dropped to his knees crying out in pain. “Tell Lila to take you into my study, there you will find my journal. And a file. Give Lila my journal and take the file.” John stood shakingly and grabbed Sophia’s arm. “Protect her Sophia... she means....”

And then he was gone. John Constantine was not a man of emotion, he had seen to much and been through to much to ever care, but in those few moments he had with Sophia, was the only time anyone would ever see him cry. In truth John was in the deepest pits of hell, hidden away.

Roy walked up to Sophia, seeing that she was in a daze, “babe, babe... babe!” Roy finally shouted a bit. He was a bit lost, she was physically there but she wasn’t mentally there. He didn’t know what to do, other then stand there and wait for her to come out of it.

Bruce looked at Lila, placing his hand on her shoulder, “it’s okay to be upset, he was your mentor.” Bruce said to her giving her a smile, “lets head up, dinner most be ready.” He said as he lead her back up to the manor. “Alfred where are my children?” He asked as they walked into the main dinning room.

Lila smiled back at Bruce and followed him up, the House was lovely. She took a spot where Bruce told her, folding her hands over her lap as she looked over all the food. She couldn’t wait to meet everyone. A small chill ran down her back as she felt the presence of something familiar. She looked behind her, thinking there was a spirit Around her. And there was, she just couldn’t see him yet.

Richard-- Richard wrapped his arms around Spencer and held out his hand for his son and then they all proceeded to entrance. When he opened the door he saw Roy and Sophia already inside but just the feeling inside the entrances way was off. He took his arm and hang back from him family and moved closer to her twin, he reached out with his mind and felt his connection with her and then touched his shoulder and he was pulled into the plain she was in. The jolt to his system was hard but when he focused he could make out Sophia and...John Constantine? he heard the tail end of John's conversation with Sophia. And then he was gone. "You know twin wonder, you always have something else up your sleeve to surprise me." he said as he approached his twin. He looked around the landscape and then back to his sister, "Can we get out of here and you can explain the John visit you just had?" he asked softly.

Sophia lurched forward and attempted to grab at John as he faded away back to his own personal hell, "Damn it John," she stood back up as she felt Dick enter the landscape. She looked back at him, "Surprised you even got into this plain," she mumbled as she started to pull in her magic again and started to fold them out and back into the real realm. "That was weird. And I'm not going to talk about it just yet, keep it to yourself." as they both came back it was like waking up from a lucid dream. The weight lifted off of her body and her mind cleared. She looked at Roy and smiled, "Hey cutie. Good job." she cupped his face and gave him a kiss, "God I am starving. That takes a lot of calories out of a person." she turned and looked at her nephew, "Hey buddy come on, lets go find Alfred. I know he's got some food and we both need it." she could already sense he wasn't keeping his magic inside of himself and was using a lot of energy to control it.

The Red Hood pulled out a disposable cell and sent out a timed text to the one person he knew would get the bat signal up when he wanted it. The text wouldn't send until 11 and he gave the bat family about ten minutes to get here after it got up. He looked down at the time ad settled back down into the snipers nest. Having already dispatched the man that the Bertenilli Family had sent out. His mangled body was moved to a corner and he used the scope to look around some more.

"Yea we have a cook, though he's not the best." she pushed the cash back towards him, "Like I said John free of charge." she turned around and moved away from the bar into the back to talk to Jimmy. When she came back out he was still sitting there and that was kinda nice, "He's getting everything turned on right now, so I'll take your order in a few." she poured another drink for him and then mixed another one for the only other person in the bar and took it over to him. She came back to John again and gave him the answer that she had been thinking about since he asked, "I deal in information. I know a lot of things about a lot of people, and I know that normally this isn't your sector you patrol it's the other lantern's." she gave a small shrug and then smiled again, "John I'm a criminal. It's what I do." she stated simply.

Spencer gave a smile to Sophia as she took Xander and went to find Alfred. She then looked back to Richard, “what was that about?” She asked gently. Once everyone began to follow she worked up slightly. “Aren’t we supposed to meet that new girl today?” She asked as she walked behind Sophia and Xander. Xander looked up at his aunt. “New girl?” He asked softly looking at all the adults around him.

Roy looked confused but he relaxed once Sophia came back to him and gave him a kiss. Man this magic stuff... he was never going to get use to it. But nevertheless he shook it off and followed after everyone, walking close to Richard. “Lemme ask you something....” He paused his words and pulled out his side phone, one that Sophia didn’t know about. He pulled up a picture that had two rings on it. “Which one?” He asked Richard quietly. He hadn’t ask Sophia to marry him yet cause he didn’t have the perfect ring, but now he had narrowed it down to two choices...

Lila and Bruce were sitting at the table talking about what Lila would be doing while she was here. “Well the bat mobile and the bat jet could use some major upgrades, I have the equipment back at my place I could bring to update things...” there it was again, a shiver ran down her back as she turned her head over to the door. A smile filled her lips as she saw everyone walk in. “No way this is soooo cool!” She giggles as she looks at everyone around.

John chuckled as he finished his drink and rolled his shoulders back. He looked up at the TV as Cecile walked away. She was right this wasn’t his sector which was exactly why he was here. When she came back and pushed the money towards him he shook his head, “darlin that’s for the drinks and food.” He said pushing it back towards her. “Again, I’m not at work so I could care less about what you do for a living.” Cams his response to her I’m a criminal remark. He looked back at the other people in the bar just counting them to make sure if anything went down he would be ready.

"Honestly nothing. She just likes to keep us all on our toes." the lie slid easily off of his tongue as he replied to Spencer, not that he liked lying to her, but when Sophia asked to keep something between the two of them he did. Same with Spencer, he would die before giving up information that someone had asked him to keep to himself, that was one great thing about growing up as Bruce Wayne's children. They knew how to keep secrets and knew where to put their loyalties. He hung back a few steps as the group moved into the dining hall and looked at Roy's phone with him and then looked at Roy. "So like- you know that I am not the person to be asking right? Like yeah I know her inside and out, but that woman..." he let out a breath and rubbed the back of his neck. "Look Roy- you know her that way the best. You already know which ring, I can't really help you out bro." he clapped him on the back and then walked after his family.

Cece once again pushed the money back towards the Lantern and gave him a smile, "I know what its for and I don't need it for the drinks or the food. Trust me" she could feel the weight of the money that Jason had given her and knew she made more tonight in one deal then she had in a few weeks. She watched his eyes move around the bar and take stock of everything and she couldn't find fault in that. Everyone who walked through that door knew who was were and what they were carrying and where their loyalties laid. The good thing about Cecile Blake was that she didn't have any loyalties and everyone in the bar knew that she wasn't a person to be messed with. She leaned back against the bar again and crossed her arms, "If you're good company tonight I'll give you something for free. And I think that it will be right up your alley."

Sophia used some of her own power and tampered with Xander's and helped him pull the power back inside of himself instead of raging all around them. She looked up at the young woman who walked in and was slightly surprised. "Hello Lila." she held out her hand to the woman and waited. The rest of the group filled into the room behind her and she could feel each and every person trying to get a gauge on the new member that was being brought into their group. Young. Bright. Lots of power. Interesting.

Lila couldn't hold herself back, she stood sharply when she saw Sophia. Sophia Wayne, someone Lila truly aspired to be. And then she saw him, the ghost that had been following her around since she walked in. Lila looked between Sophia and the Ghost, shaking Sophia's hand very faintly. Then came the word vomit, "Who is Leonard Snart?" She asked as she looked Sophia dead in the eyes. "He is very fond of you..." Lila looked to the side of Sophia, a smile filled her lips as she looked at the male that stood next to the Wayne sister. Of course only see could see him.

Lila then looked at Sophia and took a step back. "Sorry... John says I shouldn't do that... It freaks people out..." She could see the Dead, per se spirits that were still here, some times they were dead and some times they weren't but lost in limbo. But she couldn't see John, he was gone and that was the truth.

Bruce looked up at Lila and Sophia, "Lila what do you mean, there isn't anyone standing there." He said as he picked up Xander who had run over to him. Xander loved his grandpa that was true, but the 10 year old was getting big and growing fast. He then looked to Sophia, wanting to see what she had to say to Lila.

Spencer looked back at the boys as they took a while to catch up to them. Her eyes flashed gold when she felt Sophia tame Xanders powers. The Cat didn't like that, but at this point they had no choice. She leaned against the door and looked off into the distance. She was thinking about what the tribe had said. The Mother had always warned her about having kids, about how strong they could be, and boy was the Mother right. Power... So much power my dear. He is strong, and will continue to grow. You most protect him and train him well...

Roy shook his head and exhaled deeply at Richard, standing back in the hallway for a minute. He ordered the ring he chose, praying that Sophia would like it. He than stepped in and walked over to Sophia, raising an eyebrow at the new girl as her and Sophia stood there. Lila looked scared, not in the bad way, but in the way that she might have said something she shouldn't have. Well this was going to be an interesting night.

John chuckled as he set his glass back down grabbing the cash off the bar and putting it away. "And just what might that be?" he asked sitting back a bit and crossing his arms over his chest. Tonight was going to be a good night, this might even be his favorite new bar. Cece was a smart girl, and a fine one at that. His eyes then moved back up to the tv that was playing in the back ground. The alcohol was starting to kick in just a bit, but he was down for a lot more drinks and some food. "Are you sure you don't want me to pay. I feel like I should pay you for this quiet evening, and good drink."

"You mean Snart as in Captain Cold?" he gave a small snort as he looked down at his sister.

Well that's new while this was something she had never encountered before she let it roll because magic was something unpredictable and constantly surprising her. "He..." she paused, because no one in this room had known Snart like she did or from where she did. "He was from Earth One." and with that she knew she was going to have to explain a little better, she was the only person in the Justice League to have traveled in-between the Multi Verse other then the Flash and his team and at one point Oliver Queen as the Arrow. And there were somethings that the top leaders in the Justice League didn't feel they needed to share with everyone else.

"Earth One? Sophi. What the hell does that even mean?" Richard looked at his sister and knew there was only two options, she had either finally lost her goddamn mind or she had been hiding a lot more then that conversation with John.

Sophia sighed and waved her hand pulling up a white board and a marker. She walked over and drew about ten circles. "We are Earth 52, Earth 1 is the well the first world in the line up and then so on and so forth." she drew in numbers as she talked "Interaction between parallel universes is possible and I've done it, think of it like a parallel universe, actually multiverse would be a more apt description but that's beside the point. Now we are Earth 52. They all exist at the same time as us, but each world gives us endless alternatives to what is happening. Lets take Spencer as an example. On Earth One- she had already died because her power consumed her because she never met Richard or Sophia Wayne, because that Amanda Waller never impregnated some poor girl with Bruce Wayne's DNA. Each world we are all something different, in some yes we are close to how we are now. Some we died or never existed. I met Snart on Earth One. Where I stayed for almost a year and I worked with that worlds Team Flash. And...well Snart died working with a team called the Legends. He was a wonderful person. Same criminal back ground as this Earth. But he was given a chance on Earth One and he died a hero." she closed the cap on her pen and looked at the group. "A few Justice League members have traveled the MultiVerse but not enough for us to consider telling everyone what else is out there." she gave a small shrug and waved her hand again making everything clear its self up. She looked at Lila and gave a small smile, "I'm called the Wonder Twin for a lot of reasons but the biggest is that I use and enjoy magic, use and enjoy your powers Lila. Yeah some people you shouldn't blurt out that you see dead people but in this group you'll be fine." she clapped her on the shoulder as she moved over to Bruce and Xander leaving the others to think about what she said and to speak to Lila. She reached Bruce and started talking to him about the modifications she had going on at the Tower and that Lila's room would be ready by the next day.

She lost her goddamn mind Richard came to that conclusion as she was talking but a part of him knew that this was more then plausible she had take three years off when she hit 22 to "Travel" and during that time no one had heard from her, and when she came back she was different and knew things that just couldn't be explained and they all had chalked it up to the fact that she was a Meta Human. He was actually kind of frustrated that she had even kept things like that from him and the rest of the team. He pulled out a seat at the table and sat down and just thought, he couldn't imagine how Roy felt right now. It wasn't just the League that she had been keeping things from but from her whole family.

Cece looked at John and then the door creaked open again and two cops walked through the door. She already knew their names and knew that they were crooked. She rubbed the spot in between her eye brows as she felt the headache grow. Damn- they had to pick the day a Lantern was in the bar "Evening gentleman. How can I help you today?" she asked as she started to clean the bar off.

Lila gave a faint smile to Sophia as she talked to her, “great first impression Lila, 10 points from Slytherin.” She mumbled to herself before she went back to her seat sitting down as everyone else joined. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a wooden coin that had been cured in Amber. She rolled it between her fingers, her powers beginning to tuck themselves away, living only a slight trace of magic on her. Her eyes then moved to Bruce, who was standing up at the head of the table.

Xander sat next to Richard, quietly looking on at everyone. He then looked to his aunt Sophia, he could feel her pushing his powers back. He didn’t mind it but he also didn’t understand why she was doing this. He glanced back to his mom, seeing her still standing in the door way looking off into a distance. The young Kyle-Wayne boy was confused with what was going on recently, his mom was stressed out about his powers, but wouldn't tell him why she was so scared, his eyes then looked to the new girl, he could smell the power that rolled off her body, even when she tried to hide it.

Spencer had checked out. She was zoning out, thinking about what the Mother had said to her, something that left a bad taste in her mouth. Her attention was caught when she felt her son look st her, a smile filled her lips before she walked over and sat next to him. She looked over at Sophia, mouthing a thank you to her as she could feel her sons powers being pushed back. It was a relieve that for at least now Sophia could handle his powers.

Roy was lost and confused by this whole thing, and he wanted to know more about what she was talking about and who this Snart guy was, but now was not the time. Later he would ask questions, but for now it was dinner time. He moved over to his spot and sat down, waiting for Sophia.

John glanced back at the two cops that walked in. “You want me to move?” He asked gently and lowly to where only she could hear before he raised his drink to his lips taking a long sip. He knew who these cops were, and didn't care for how she reacted when they walked in. So much for a simple night, he thought to himself as he sat up a bit and looked to the tv, crossing his arms over his chest.

Cece shook her head and watched the officers walk straight into the backroom. Which mean she had business to take care of again. "Alrighty John." she set the rag back down on the bar. She walked back to the kitchen and got Jim out. "Jimmy here is taking over while I take a break." she said as she sailed back into the bar and into the back room. She pulled the curtain shut with a flick of her wrist and looked at the two police officers. Disgusting she looked over at their sloppy uniforms and unkempt facial hair. "Boys your interrupting my night. Why are you here?" one shrugged out of his jacket without saying anything and she started to get a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach. The other one looked her up and down and gave her a grin, "A man stumbled into the hospital about thirty minutes ago with a gun shot wound. Says it came from here and you watched it happen." her stomach dropped farther as she connected the dots. "We took care of it for you Blake. Seems to me..." he also shrugged out of his jacket and tossed it over the other one and then grabbed her by the shoulders, "Seems to me you owe us Blake." his grip tightened on her upper arms as the other moved behind her and kicked the door shut, she jumped slightly at how loud the door slammed, her skin now crawling. The curtain shut was just one warning to patrons a deal was going on, the door being shut meant that unless the world was coming to an end no one was going to enter it for fear of disturbing one of the criminal families. Ruining my god damn night. I was really enjoying how it was going too. the other cop grabbed her braid and yanked her head back to look at the man in front of her. "Ray doesn't it seem to you like Blake owes us?" he sniffed at her neck and smiled when he looked back at her face. "Boys...you aren't going to like what happens if you keep down this path." one warning. That was it. One. People knew not to mess with Cecile Blake. She was off limits- the things she knew about everyone and everything going down. She was protected. She stiffened and then gave the man a sly smile.Idiots.

Richard watched as his son and wife sat down and he saw that the boy was more relaxed then he had been since he had come home. He ruffled the boys hair and waited for Bruce to speak. The only time they did a dinner like this at the Manor was when he had things that he wanted to dictate the the family.

Sophia gave Spencer a smile in return and then took her seat on the other side of the table. Her secondary Q-Phone went off in her pocket as soon as she sat down and when she pulled it out and saw that it was Barry Allen, who was currently training with the Titans. "Hey B." she stood back up and went out of hearing range of the table. "Damian ditched out and hasn't checked back in." a frustrated sigh fell from her lips as she thought about the youngest Wayne child. "Thanks. I'll bring him in later." "You sure? I can take care of it if you need me too." "No Bar- I'll get the brat. I'll see you in a few hours- I'll be taking training over for a few days. I'm bringing two with me." "Damn, hands full. I can handle Damian if you get your hands tied tonight." he offered again. "Thank Bar. Stay safe." she hung up the phone and again felt the pounding of the headache coming on as she returned to the table, scrolling through the phone she sent out a quick text to Damian... If you aren't back at the tower by the time I head out you train with Richard for a weekthe two disliked each other so much she knew she would at least get a response from the brat.

He saw a flash a few rooftops over and he sat up and studied the rooftop intensely, Jason felt a tingle at the back of his neck but he saw nothing else. No movement. No shifting shadows. Nothing. He kept his eyes trained on that roof for a few more minutes and then settled back down. Only nine. Two more hours to go. He was just seeing things because he wanted some action.

Todd was in fact not seeing things. Robin aka Damian Wayne's phone had gone off when his annoying sister and mentor and keeper had texted him. He shook his head in disgust. The bumbling oaf they called the Flash didn't even notice he slipped out but he had hacked into some criminals computer and gotten information that this case of Kryptonite was going to be sold and he wasn't going to miss it just because Nova and Batman said he had no self control. His eyes rolled under the mask. He was trained by Ra's himself in the League of Assassins. He had self control.

Dinner had gone by quickly, and soon enough they were back in the bat cave. Lila was talking with Bruce as she showed him the modifications she had thought of over dinner. She had layed down her computer moving the holograms as she spoke. “See what you created for the Bat jet is epic, but I can make it even better. Start with this design here...” she talked a big smile on her face.

Spencer had stayed back with Sophia as Alfred took Xander up stairs to bed, staying the night with grandpa was always the best. She looked at Sophia as she told her what the Mother said. “I’m willing to let you train him and teach him, but only if we all agree that if for some reason it doesn’t work, we bind his powers until he’s 18.” Spencer’s voice trembled softly as she talked about binding her sons power, but she hid it quickly locking down her emotions. She couldn’t show anything right now, it would make her feel even weaker.

John finished his plate, wiping his hands clean before he reached in his back pocket “at least let me tip your chef for that good meal.” He said looking up at CeCe. Green eyes looking at her fiercely.

As the deal started his phone automatically sent out the message about the buy and the players to the Bat Tip line that would alert the team they needed to leave. He stepped out of the shadows and walked into the group doing the buy, people drew their guns and held them trained on him. "Who the hell are you?" one of them sneered. Red Hood tapped the gun to the side of his head as he laid a hand on their shipment of Kryptonite he could tell it was the real deal from the green glow it gave off. "This is mine now." he heard someone laugh and adjust their stance, "Oh you think so buddy? You didn't pay for it." without looking Jason took aim and shot the guy in the head, his blood spraying the people behind him. "I think I just did." The Red Hood looked at all the men that were around Dixon Dock and started to speak, "I don't like deals like this gentleman, I don't like crime in Gotham and you know...if you keep doing things this way and causing my city to suffer, you're going to meet a different form of Justice and it won't be like Batman's idea of it where your out in a week up to the same shit." he looked at the body that was oozing blood out, "it will be the more permanent kind." he took aim again and shot out the knee cap of the Bertenilli representative that had negotiated the buy. His screams permeated the air.

Damian had also slid down from his rooftop perch and looked at the buy that was going down, getting a good picture of all the criminals with the camera that was in his mask. He watched as another man walked into the group wearing two different types of guns not including the one in his hand and a red mask? he inched closer as the man started to speak and then watched as the Red man blew off some guys head. He cocked his head and watched intently listening as he spoke out 'justice' he scoffed as he pressed a button at his side that would alert Nova that he needed help. Not that he needed help or anything but he had a feeling that this was going to get a little hairy and it would be best to have assistance.

Sophia watched as Xander walked away with Al, "If you want me to do this you need to bring him to the Tower tomorrow morning. He'll stay with me for a little while, it would be best if you and Richard stay away the first few days and just let me work with him." she saw the start of tears and then she reigned it in, Sophia rubbed Spencer's arm, "Spencer, it's not weakness to ask for help." she ducked her head and looked Spencer right in the eyes and told her what she had been telling the Titans since day one, "Asking for help is a sign of strength and growth." her secondary phone went off in her pocket and she patted her friend softly as she pulled out her phone she quickly read the message that Damian had sent and sighed. "Gotta go to my night job now, can someone please bring Lila over to the tower, I can't." with that she rushed out of the room and as she walked her other outfit melded onto her body. Her suit was made of nano tech that responded to her needs and self repaired. She opened a portal and stepped through it. Nova stepped out of the portal right by Damian and crouched by him,Whats going on? she sent to him, Bertenille is selling Kryptonite to an undisclosed party and the Red Hood guy showed up and blew out some guys brains he reported back she watched until she heard the screams.

Richard was down in the BatCave with the two doing some of his own upgrades on his suit, he listened to the two speak intermittently until he heard the computer start to beep wildly. He sat back and read the screen, "Deal going down at Dixon Docks. Shots fired." he spoke out loud and started to quickly change. He shot Lila a look, "You ready for your first night out?" he grinned.

Cece looked at John and tossed him a burner cell, "Has my number in it call me anytime. And no money- I do have something for you though John." she leaned down on the counter getting close to his face, "You're on the clock now Lantern, deal going down at Dixon Dock. Whole shipment of Kryptonite is being sold to some unsavory criminals." she kissed his cheek, "I mean it Lantern you better call me, anytime." she straightened back up and started to clean up the bar. She had Jimmy taking care of the two cops who had decided that she "owed" them anything. She also had Jimmy dropping off their filed full of criminal activity to a cop she knew was clean on the force so they wouldn't have that job anymore. One lost a hand and the other had a bullet to the knee cap, but that's what happened when she was touched or threatened.

Lila chuckled as she looked at Richard, “you bet I am.” She purred as she snapped her fingers and whispered something in Latin. Her clothes changed suddenly, changing to her battle gear. She smiled at Richard before looking to Batman who was already suited up.

Batman looked over to Lila and Richard, “Nightwing you with me, Lila and Roy you with Spencer.” He said as he looked over at Roy and Spencer who were already dressed in her cat suit. “Your lucky I have control over my boards B-man.” Spencer purred kicking out three hover boards.

Roy jumped up on one along with Spencer. “Come on new girl you can do it.” Roy said watching Lila jump on. They all took off heading to the docks to help out Sophia. Lila had a really bad feeling about all of this.

John chuckled as he grabbed the phone and his jacket. “Roger that boss.” He said as he placed the phone in his pocket before leavin. The male shifted quickly, flying to the docks, meeting near Damien and Sophia. “Heard there was trouble.” He said faintly to her.
