Scarlet Arrow

Part 5

When I wake up it is dark outside and I am in cold water. I forgot to get out of the tub before sleeping, so I'm all wrinkly like a raisin. I pull the drain before I get out and then get a towel and start drying myself. I put on a pair of black leggings and a white shirt. I put my hair in a ponytail. When I sit on my bed I hear a big crash along with someone yelling "Kori". I quickly put my sneakers on and run outside.

I see Gar running out and I look at him in confusion, he just shrugs and runs around the corner with me right behind him. We turn the corner to see Kori being pushed against the wall.

"Gar! Get the girls out of here!" She yells.

Gar grabs my hand when Rachel comes out from her room. He pulled me forward and grabbed Rachel's arm and we all ran to the 'Exit' door. When we get outside we see a car smashed in and glass all over the ground.

Kori comes out and Rachel says "Where's Dick?"

"I don't know." Kori tells us.

I hear a thump and I see the family of four coming at us with all types of gadgets.

"Uhhhh, Kori?!" I exclaim.

They all turn to look at the family. The girl comes for me with a needle. I kick her in the stomach and she leans forward. I kick her back and she falls to the ground. I get into a fighting stance but she grabs my leg knocking me off balance. She holds me down and starts to choke me with her forearm. She gets the needle and puts it in my arm. I feel myself stop struggling and feel myself slip into unconsciousness once again.

~~~~~~

I wake up in a bed that I feel like I have been in before but have no recollection of. A woman with blonde hair comes in through the door to my left. She walks over with a tray of soup. She sets it down on the end of the bed and takes the bowl of soup off the tray. She hands me a spoon and the bowl.

"How are you feeling? Better today than yesterday I hope." Mom, my brain supplies, says.

When I look up she is gone and I am standing with a bow in my hand ready to fire. A boy in a red costume and a hat with a yellow feather comes into view.

I drop the bow and run up to him saying, "Roy!" I jump into his open arms.

When I pull back I notice the grip becomes more feminine. I look up to see a woman in a tiger suit. The woman has blond hair and blue eyes. She gives me a look and then says, "My little Tiger!" A name suddenly pops into my head. Artemis. She gives me another hug but this time she just disappears.

I feel someone kick my back making me fall to the ground. I turn and face the culprit to see a brunette girl of the age of fourteen. "Why do you always win?!" I hear myself whine.

She shrugs and sits down next to me, "Because I'm Donna Troy, older, smarter and prettier." She says the last part with a smirk directed towards me.

Donna was about to continue but I interrupted her and said "Yeah, yeah I know the drill." I look at her and roll my eyes.

I fall onto my back only to keep going and pass the floor. The only thing keeping myself from hitting the ground was that my legs were holding onto a tree branch.

I feel a hand grab mine and look to find a younger version of Dick Grayson. We both sit up and he pulls me into him. We look out over the city and he puts his head on mine. He pulls away and gives me a frown.

"What?" I ask him.

He sighs, "I need to tell you something, but you have to take it seriously okay?" I nod my head. He jumps down and motions me for him to follow him.

I jump down as well but when my feet hit the ground the scene changes. I am met face to face with a guy dressed up the mad hatter and had clock patterns all over him. "Don't move Arrowette."

I drop my bow in exasperation and scold him, "It's Scarlet Arrow! Why can't anyone get that?" Before he responds I shoot his arm but only grazing him. He drops the bag he was holding and tries to make a run for it.

I got another bow ready but before I could knock it a man dressed in the same thing as me but in green turned around from the corner. "Where do you think you're going? I haven't had my fun yet. He gave the man a sly smile and hit the clock guy with the side of his bow and knocked him unconscious.

"I had that covered Dad." I roll my eyes and put my bow away. I get out a pair of handcuffs and cuff the criminal. I look back to the bag to see my father already there. "Hey Green Arrow, what's in the bag?" He emptied the bag and clocks tumbled out of the sack.

Green scoffs and packed the clocks back into the bag. "Get back, I will take care of the rest." He motioned to the slight mess.

I ran to give him a kiss on the cheek and then knocked a grappling arrow onto a nearby building. When I landed everything faded into black once again.
