Diana's P.O.V
"Diana, Dick Grayson will be assigned to you," Clark said as he ticked something off his list.
I nodded and looked up to see a young, handsome, dark-haired man make his way towards me.
With every step he took, he gave off an air of easy-going confidence and his face lit up more and more with an excited gleam in his eyes.
"Oh, okay, just pretend I never asked that," I muttered, feeling embarrassed. "Urm, so when can be begin training?" He asked enthusiastically. "I'll give you an hour or two to get used to the place and we can start as soon as possible," I suggested. I was tired already from talking to this guy. It was like he was sucking the life out of me. He was just way too excited for training.
"Yep, sure," He answered. With that, he turned back around to face Superman and I took this time to analyse him, his stature, built and strength.
Maybe I'm not making sense right now but there's just this vibe about him...
I don't really know what it is.
But something's doesn't really feel right.
"I guess Superman's already given you some brief explanation on everything, you pass the test, you're in the league, you fail, you get out," I muttered, getting his attention. "Way to be serious, Prince," He retorted, glaring at me a little bit. "We're not on the first name basis yet, see ya," I replied, giving him a little wave before making my way to my room.
It was almost as if I could feel his gaze staring into my soul. Weird.
Barry's P.O.V
Some Iris girl was assigned to me. Huh, she's actually kinda pretty with her red hair and chocolate brown eyes. Wonder what her power is?
Diana's P.O.V
It had been an hour since I last talked to Dick. I decided to go look for Bruce to see if I could spar with him a little bit. As I walked towards his room, I saw a human-like shadow at a dark corner.
It looked like...
The Joker.
What the hell?
Oh hell no. Not today. Just not now. I started to scream for Bruce. "Diana, what's going on?" He asked in a monotone. "It's Joker! He's back! He's just right..." I lifted my finger to point at who I thought was Joker, but it was actually just Barry.
My mouth hung open and I stuttered, "But- But I just saw him..."
Bruce had a doubtful expression on his face.
"Are you sure you didn't see wrongly? The Watchtower's security levels are extremely high as you know," Bruce reminded me. "I don't know..." I trailed off.
"Go get some rest, you must have been too exhausted, from what I've heard, you have to start training that Grayson kid, better stay in your top form." He said.
"Yeah, Diana, calm down, there's been no sign of any intrusion either," Barry piped in.
"Uh, yeah... Must be so..." I mumbled, feeling a little embarrassed.
You might be thinking why I was freaking out over Joker's appearance. Let me explain...
(Two years ago)
"Diana! Come on! He's getting away!" Dinah shouted. "I'm on it," I yelled. I flew into the dark tunnel and started chasing Joker. "You will never catch me!" His voice boomed. "Oh really? Watch me," Just as I was about to give him a good, hard punch, he fired a shot at me. But it wasn't an ordinary bullet. I fell into deep sleep immediately."Uh...hello?" My voice echoed. Where was I? My head hurt like crazy, even worse than a hangover. I remembered chasing Joker into that tunnel and he shot me...
Suddenly, I saw Clark and Bruce appear in the brightly lit room I was in. "Hera! Bruce, Clark! Am I ever so glad to see you guys!" I said, a relieved smile spreading over my face. "Sadly, I can't say the same..." Bruce's deep voice replied.
"Mm?" I mumbled, confused. And that was when the knives, the punches and kicks started hurting me. Those words they said...I will never forget.
(End of flashback)
"I guess I'm tired, that's all," I said unsurely. For a moment, I heard a hysterical laugh. And I looked back, but it was only Bruce with an innocent expression plastered on his face...
