Kyle (Discontinued)

.7.

"Aren't you a little young to be in Italy by yourselves?" A man asked as he took the money from Dick. Amelia giggled softly then wrapped her arm around his, "Young love? Honeymoon I guess?" He asked seeing a flashy ring on her finger. 

"Engaged. I wanted to treat her  to a vacation before we returned to Gotham." Dick responds. The man was quiet for a second then his eyes lit up. He instantly knew it was Bruce Wayne's adopted son. With money like that he stopped questioning them. He gave them their key and they were off to their hotel room. 

"I'm surprised you got a presidential suite. Wouldn't Brucie find us faster that way?" Amelia asked as she slipped off the fake ring. They picked it up from a cheap tourist shop on the way into Italy. 

"He would, but he also knows that I wouldn't go for such an expensive room. So if he manages to track us to Italy then it would be awhile before he realized that I'm not in a cheap room." He explains then opens the door. 

This place was...expensive. Marble floors, leather couches, waterfalls. Amelia had never been in a place as fancy as this only her mother when she let Bruce take her on a fancy trip leaving her daughter behind. She ran her hand along the walls then walked to the window where she could see the beautiful sight of Italy. 

Even being on a plane was a new, and scary experience. 

><><

"Now boarding Flight 101 to Rome, Italy." A voice called out and Dick stood up with his bags and his ticket. He looked over at Amelia who looked as pale as the moon. She was staring at the large windows where planes were taking off and landing. 

He shakes his head then taps her sunglasses making her jump from her terror trance, "It'll be alright. I promise." He reassures then helps her up to her feet. She clings tightly to his arm all the way until the reached their seats. It was first class, and a fancy one too. It was a bed with a small wall covering separating the space between their heads with two small screens on each side. 

She climbs in still very tense. She was new to air travel, but she knew that this was the fastest way. Dick flopped down on the bed next to her then takes her hand, "Relax Emi...Superman will keep us from dying." He jokes. Her cheeks darken at the nickname he just gave her. He was right. Superman, or one of the other Superman Family members would save the day. They always did. 

She took a deep breath then leaned back against the wall. They were in the back closest to the bathrooms, and further away from people. She peeked over the small wall to see Dick with his glasses pushed up onto his head. She squeak when the plane began to move and jumped over to his side. She wrapped her arms around his waist holding him in a death grip. 

Dick chuckles before rubbing her back and once the plane was in the air he looked down at her. Her green eyes looked into his wide and fear filled. She did not like this at all. What was even worse was that they would have to fly back! 

"Emi, I got you." 

><><

Amelia's cheeks flared up thinking about the events that happened a few hours ago. She yawned softly looking to where Dick was standing. He smiled taking her hand, "You should rest. We have plenty of time before dark." He whispers then pushes her towards the bedroom. 

She walked over to the bed then laid on it not bothering to cover herself up. While she slept, Dick pulled out her suit. It was good, but not good enough. Luckily their suitcases were made to block the images of their suits, and weapons. Usually he would be flying on Bruce's private jet or the batplane, but both of those would expose their locations. 

He made some alterations to her suit using stuff from old suits that Bruce stopped wearing. More padding, more tech. 

Later that night Amelia crouched down next to Dick as they watched a building. This was one of Cadmus's best research lab on planet.  They just needed to sneak in long to examine all the chemicals in the toxins. Amelia carried a vile of Jesse's blood to analyze. 

"Ready?" Dick asks her then wraps an arm around her waist while pulling out his grappling gun. She smirks then pushes him away slightly. She unfurls her whip then wraps it around a light post. 

"My mother is Catwoman remember?" She teases then swings down to the roof of the lab. Dick felt his heart race as he watched. Amelia looked up at him smiling. Her green eyes were shining in the moonlight. 

"I'm going to marry her...I swear.." He mumbles to himself then grapples down to where she was. Amelia puts her whip back on her belt then follows Dick as they made their way into the vents. She grumbled under her breath making the boy wonder look at her with a raised brow. 

"What's with you and vents?" She whispers. Dick shakes his head before he starts crawling again. He stops to look at the map then looks through a grate. It was dark, with only a few lights from the tech glowing throughout the room. Carefully Dick drops into the room then signals for Amelia to follow. They move quickly and quietly through the room until they came to the main lab table. Amelia pulls out the vial getting to work quickly. Dick kept watch as she analyzed the blood. She frowns then the results appear on the screen. 

Venom

Poison Ivy's Blood

Superman's Blood

Those were the main ones that stood out to Amelia. Her mind ran through the times where Jesse was a giant muscled monster like Bane, she almost killed the man. She remembered her using powers like Ivy to bust her father out of prison. Superman was when she protected her father's hideout from a swat team sent to arrest him. 

Other hero and villain DNA appeared on the screen as she analyzed more blood, "It's like her blood is made up of everyone else's...I don't know how her body can even handle this." Amelia explained as she uploaded the files to Dick. Once he got them she began purging every ounce of research from the database. Last thing they needed was Cadmus finding this.

"Maybe after exposure to it all these years, her body just absorbed it. From past records, She was always injected with the same DNA, the sedative was foreign, her immune system is attack it along with the other foreign DNA." Dick explains then tenses up when he hears voices coming down the hall. The quickly make their way back into the vent just as the door opened. A scientist along with a guard walked in turning the light on. 

"I swear I heard voices...there was someone here." The scientist said walking over to the computer. They started typing away looking for evidence of intruders. Amelia began to panic as she tugged on Dick's sleeve. 

"You disabled the cameras?" She asked him as quiet as possible. He nodded then once they reached the roof, he watched as guards started patrolling the perimeter. Amelia knelt down next to him counting how many were walking around. She looked over at Dick then tugs on his sleeve, "Meet you back at the room." She whispered then jumped down from the building much to his protest. 

Amelia made her way behind on guard like his shadow. She reached behind her pulling up a black hood to hide her white hair that made her stick out like the light in the dark. Every time the guard stopped she did and when she moved she did as well. Once she was safe enough she moved further into the shadows. Dick's jaw dropped as he watched her completely disappear. 

"I'm going to marry her..." He mumbled before making his safe escape.
