Few weeks went by and Sammie insisted on Dick and the others staying.

I woke up one morning to Sammie working on tech, per usual and Dick staring at the TV. A news reporter going on about another peace treaty between Superman and a country.

Supes was persistent on making sure no crime was ever committed in the world again. A bold goal but surprisingly it was working. A hostile takeover if you will.

What he didn't realize was this was in the form of Totalitarianism.

I sat on the couch, observing Sammie's hard work as Jason came in. Jason laid full out on the white leather sofa in my lap.

I fiddled with his hair, and Sammie took a break. Sammie sighed, "Creating codes are so difficult sometimes!" She spurts. "Ha, at least you can do this at all." Jason scoffs.

She clicks off a website, "Sammie, can you give an update?" I asked, distressed.

"You asked this morning, but I guess I can take a look." She huffed, turning back to the computer.

"More speculation on the identity of Batman. Most are aiming towards Bruce still..." Sammie started.

Jason budged in, "Well, yeah when a famed billionaire goes missing, some people can add things up." Sammie continues with, "Anyways, more peace treaties with Superman. The press says, " His attempts for world peace are quite fruitful.", Yeah no shit. People are just scared of the unknown of his kind." Sammie snarls.

"Is that it?" I asked once more. "Umm... Harley Quinn and her goons were spotted making yet another monument to the Joker. She's really upset." She searches through the computer.

"All because of him..." Coming out of his daze, Dick grumbled.

We turned our heads to Dick, compelled by his own misery. "All of this is happening because of Superman."

"Well than what do you propose we do about that, Dick?" He stood up, leaning on her desk, "What I want to do is kill the son of a bitch, but I digress. He's a kryptionian, one of the most powerful being in space, unmatched to us." He explains.

Tim and Damien walked in, after eavesdropping our conversation. Tim sat in the leg of the couch me and Jason' were on and Damien stood with his hands behind his back.

"Face it, we're basically alone in this." Jason gave the hard truth.

The room was silent for a moment and then I clicked. I stared up, Sammie too. We looked at one another, as the boys noticed.

We gave each other a knowing look and smiled, "What's up? You guys look like you figure out the secret of life." Jason stated.

"We're not alone..." We said in unison. I got off of Jason's lap. Walking from the couch to Sam's desk. Looking at everyone else, "We have allies all over the world. Dick, you have Wally and Jesse. Jay, there's Roy. Damien, Jason, and I have connections to Ra's Al Ghul." I said.

"I'm sure The Sirens would help." Sam added.

"Basically anyone who was effected by Batman and the Joker, people who hate Superman that are willing to fight." I finished.

"Taylor's right..." As Dick agreed with me, Jason was alerted by his heightened hearing. He shouts, "Get down!"

Tim and Damien hid behind the couch, Dick on the other side of the counter, Sammie under her desk, and Jason pulling me to the floor.

Shots blew through the glass windows, two bullets hitting the floor. While me and Jason we're ducking for shelter, I struggled, "Jason. Gun." He reached for his gun, snug on his belt.
