Silent Knight

Chapter Three

After Summer Break

I put on my school uniform and morph my brown hair straight. I bring the appearance of light makeup to my face. I grab my bag and speed through the streets until I made it to the outskirts of the school.

When we get too school I spot my two new friends Dick and Barbara.

"Tara! Where have you been?" Dick asked.

'Chilling at home'

Dick translated for Barbara before responding, "I was in France for the summer."

'Sure Robin'

His smile drops from his face.

"Babs could you give us a second, we'll catch up." Without giving her a chance to reply he dragged me away.

He and I walk to the cluster of trees that surround the back of the school.

"Okay Dick, so I-" I turned around to put my books down and he uses that opportunity to put me in a choke hold.

"Who the hell are you?" He growls.

I telekinetically pull him off of me and hold him in the air.

"Don't touch me. My name is Tara, I haven't spoken for ten years in the hope that HE will be thrown off my trail. HE is the reason why I am what I am. And I am, the Silent Knight."

I morph into said body before speaking, "I will tell you more... but now is not the right time."

"How did you know my-"

"Batsy didn't put a good lock on that cave."

My eyes glowed as I made a telepathic link with Dick as well as turned us invisible to all but each other.

Me- We are invisible don't make a sound.

Dick- This is so COOL!

I grab my book bag and we run into the school. We weave past students and I first make myself visible, then Dick. We separate as if nothing has happened. I follow him to our advanced Algebra class.

'Should I give the teacher a heart attack and speak?' I sign to Dick.

He laughs and replies,
"Sure just wait 'till I grab my camera."

I open my text book and do random problems as the teacher drones. Eventually he asks for volunteers. No one volunteers so he looks around the classroom, his eyes eventually stopping at Jackson Dreln.

"Jackson, come on up here and do the problem."

The board reads:

(-7) n - 3 = 2(-n) - 33

Jackson came up with the answer:
n = #

"Jackson the answer is a number but not a number sign. Does anyone know what Jackson did wrong?" The teacher asks.

I nudge Dick as I raise my hand. He starts his camera as the teacher gapes,
"Tara?"

"Yeah, Teach let's start with the many mistakes Jackson made." I stand up and walk to the front of the classroom." Okay, he doesn't brush his hair, he curses, his dad paid for him to get into the advanced class. Oh an the answer is n=6." I smirk at the class. Everyone but Dick gapes.

"You can speak?" The teacher asks completely ignoring what I said about Jackson.

"No shit Sherlock." I say rolling my eyes. "Hey everyone Ya wanna see something hilarious? Dick come'er."

He hooks up the camera to the computer. The video of everyone's reaction to my speaking turns on. Everyone laughs at the expressions. I smile happily, for once.

Scary Murderer/Stalker POV

"Sir, we've found her. It says here she's in Gotham." A goon tells me.

"Excellent, change of plans we're going to Gotham." I say smirking. Finally I will posses the child. We set the ship to her coordinates. In minutes we will arrive and destroy everything she holds dear... again.
