Darkness Within (ON HOLD AND MAJOR EDITING BEING DONE)

Chapter 14 ~ Let's Just Call This a Fucking Reunion

"Hey Jen," says a high male voice. Sighing I turn to see Garfield.

In a cold, rude voice I spit out, " What do you want?"

When I look into his eyes I can tell he's nervous so I ease up a bit. He looks at me before asking, "Um, can we talk somewhere private?"

"Why," I ask suspiciously, looking him up and down.

He just motions for me to follow him and walks into a dark hallway. Cliche much. Taking wary steps I enter the hallway. Thanks to mom I can see perfectly in the dark. Hidden in the shadows is Megan Morse, Artemis Crock, Kal I-don't-know-his-last-name, Conner Kent, and Wally West. All that's missing here is Dick. The hell is going on?

"You can come out of the dark, I see you," I call out to them.

Megan comes out first and says to Garfield, "Thanks Gar. Can you leave now please?"

"Sure. Later sis," he says leaving the hallway.

The others walk out of the shadows and trust me when I say I wish I never followed Garfield into here. They all are on guard. Their faces are dark and grim. Not like someone died, but like I'm a little kid in trouble.

"What do ya'll want," I spit out. I don't like this one bit.

"We want information," starts Kal when Conner buts in, " there's something off about you."

To clarify Megan says, "We know who your father is."

The camera's in this hallway has been down for years so I bring a fireball into my hand, going on alert. I know no one will see us because class began two minutes ago.

"How do you know this," I say lowly.

"Relax, we just want answers," Artemis steps in.

"Have you ever gone out using your powers as a super," Kal asks. Thank god, they don't know that I'm a villain.

"No, but that's none of your business if I did," I say in a monotone.

I aim the ball at Kal, I'm guessing he's their leader, and notice Megan step back a bit. Hmm, interesting.

"Problem with fire, Megan," I say mockingly, aiming at her now.

Conner steps in front of her defensively and grunts out, "try something, I dare you."

Cockily I say before throwing the fireball, "well if it's a dare."

The fire burns his shirt and his six pack peeks through. The fire doesn't burn him. Oh fuck.

"Superboy," I state like it's the answer to everything and it was always right in front of my face.

I mumble under my breath, "explains the hearing."

"That was you at the cafe in Metropolis, wasn't it," he asks defensively.

"No, I've never left Gotham in my entire life," I state in a superior tone.

Kal buds in rudely saying, "That is not true. We know for a fact that you were in New York a couple days ago and that means you went through Metropolis."

I flip him off before saying, "Well, I must head off now. I have important things to do."

"We're not done with you," Artemis says grabbing my wrist.

Having turned away from them I slowly turn my head to look back at the blonde. I grab her wrist, pull it off my arm, and throw it down. I turn back and walk out of the hallway and to my still open locker. I finish grabbing my books and slam it shut.
