My Super-Story

33: Man Oh Man

Yep, the day past as any other. The ending was the worst, I had decided with Alfred that I would walk home today. Absolute mistake! I walked through the streets of Gotham, not the best place to be when a villain decides they want to be super awesome, but at the moment that wasn't the problem. I was at the mall, not that much better than the streets, but not what I'm talking about. I am talking about the perfect outfit for the upcoming winter gala that the Metropolis Art Gallery was going to have, it was so hard. I had the choice between two dresses, one I loved, it was super comfortable and looked amazing on me, but it wasn't my colours. The other was beautiful, comfortable, and looked great on me. Worse part was I had to find dresses for my friends as well, they were going undercover on this mission.
                We were to infiltrate the winter gala at the Metropolis Art Gallery in about two days, and stay undercover. We were just pretty much supposed to learn how to stay undercover, while we did their petty work, the villains were planing a major attack. We were supposed to distract both Batman and Superman, who would be present during the gala. Not directly, but nobody knew that but me. We were only the diversion. We had tipped off Young Justice that we were making a move at the gala. Best part, only Nightwing knew what I looked like, and they knew nothing of the others. Well this was going to be awesome, if my friends got back from their stupid missions. I waited all day, I was lectured by Dick, he probably had a good idea of who the uprising hero was, but I would deny it until he unmasked me.
                     I had to figure out why I wasn't going to the gala, maybe I could conjure a fake version of myself and take myself hostage, then they could make up an excuse for me as Wolf not being there. This is going to be difficult, maybe I could say I was spending the night with a friend, whom would that be. If I say Valentina then they might get suspicious, but if I say Sapphire they probably won't right? Like they trust her a lot, maybe I could say we were having a sleepover, at her place. Yep, that's what I'm going to do.
                      Okay, now for the dresses.
Grey and black for Shadow, it was her first, and we weren't to draw attention to ourselves.
A beautiful pink to go with her dyed locks, this was for Black Bow, just shiny enough.
White Cheetah was very picky, I had to look very hard to find something that was perfect.
It's Saturday, I haven't seen any of my friends since we were told we would be getting seperate tests.
Black Bow was out following Cheetah, Cheetah was out stealing, Shadow was out training. I was getting really lonely, I was going out as Pixie quite a bit, Nightwing, Robin and Batman have all now met her, I like her, she reminds me of Tinkerbell. I've been going out to the dance studio more often, I don't know why but whenever I go I feel like I'm being watched. I've been training but not in the sense you would think, I've been training my body, surprisingly not my powers, which definitely need work. Tomorrow I'm going to go out for a run early in the morning in the forest that backs to Wayne Manor. It's always intrigued me, like it's calling to me...
              "Grace!" I heard someone call me from outside.
              I turned and I saw someone I'd never expect to see, "Mom?" I said stunned, it was Talia Al Ghul, but better known to me as my mom from the other world.
            "Hi, sweetheart!" She said coming and giving me a hug.
            "Hey, what are you doing here?" I asked knowing that she wouldn't come here if she could avoid it, she didn't really like people all that much.
         "This is for you, it's about your personal test, it is on, if you can be a villain! You'll have another, to test your skills later but still they need to know which side your on." She said handing me a red slip of paper in the shape of a  flame.
             "Thanks a lot Talia!" I said, she turned swaying her hips as she walked out the mall, pretty much every guy's head turned towards her as she left. Man, she's almost as toxic as Ivy! I opened the slip and read it in my head, not out loud that'd be silly!
Dear Wolf
I regret to inform you that all of the leaders of the light don't trust you yet, so we are going to be giving you two tests, one on if you could qualify and the other if you are trained enough to be part of the co-ops Lights' team. Meet me at the docks of Gotham harbour, you will accompany Joker, Black Manta and his son to extract information from the leader of the Justice Leagues' co-ops team. You will capture Nightwing and will follow Black Mantas' orders not Jokers' he will lead you to do unhealthy things that I believe you are not prepared to do yet.
Best of luck
Ra's Al Ghul
