Max's POV
My eyes stung as I opened them and looked up into the light above me. I squinted and hissed silently.
"Max, you're awake!" I heard Miss. Martian say excitedly.
I nodded and sat up, looking around the room, seeing the team, along with Red Arrow and Cheshire, who was surprisingly free.
"Surprised?" Said criminal asked.
I tilted my head and nodded, indeed confused.
"I'm a hero now. Apparently saving a bunch of short kids gets you on people's good and bad sides." She sighed.
"Mm." Red Arrow hummed, rolling his eyes.
"Well, we're glad you're awake." Robin said, smiling.
I was too, obviously, so I smiled back, throwing my legs over the side of the medical bed and standing up, albeit unsteadily, but it wasn't that bad.
Perhaps I have found something to care about and work for. These people, they had done so much for me, and I had given so little in return.
Perhaps it was time to stop being in the shadows.
So I went to my room and grabbed a notepad, before explaining to them how I felt.
Maybe I didn't have to be alone after all.
