I gently knocked on the wooden door. Two times. No answer. Maybe she's sleeping? Staring down the door knob, the door opened slowly. Weird. "Kara?" I opened the unlock door as I wheeled into her room. I see her awfully drawn sketches of her favourite tv show all around her room. Her untidied bed with some clean laundry on it.
"Kara?" I called her name again. She wasn't there... Where else could she be? Should I ask superman or superboy? Just when I entered Clark Kent's phone number, I received a call from Tim.
"Barbara!"
"What's wrong, Tim?" He sounded urgent.
"Everything! The red capes have gone missing. And there was an attack, all over the globe! Including the hall of justice! By robots!"
"Robots?" I asked.
"Yes! Wonder Woman is dealing with them in Paris. Batman, Spoiler and I are in London. We need you to hack the robots."
"Wait what? All of them in the world? There might be billions... no... ten billion! "
"Batman says Lex Corp has a thing that can deliver a huge electric shock, and to hack all of them at the same time. You'll need to be on the top floor, use the main computer."
"How can a girl in a wheelchair do all of that stuff? I can't even go through Metropolis with all the robots here. Who even made those? Is it Lex again?" I questioned.
"We need to focus on the bots now. Batman sent the titans to assist you. They should arrive soon."
Oh great. Dick's team.
"Fine... I'm getting ready." I headed out from Kara's room, took my laptop and looked out the window. A grey aircraft, containing a few people in it.
"Hi... people." I said awkwardly as I entered the jet.
"Yo whatsup Bats!"
"Hi Gar."
I've known Garfield while I was on the team, and I know Robin and Nightwing, but the others... not so much. There was a goth girl with a dark cloak. I suppose that's Raven, daughter of Trigon. The bug looking suit? Is Blue beetle, Jaime Reyes.I see both birds on the front seat controlling the aircraft. " Hi Robin."
"Oracle." He nodded his head. "Batman says we're going to Lexcorp?" I decided not to say anything to Grayson, it will be awkward."Yes... I need to get to the top floor."
"That might be difficult, there are many robots near that place." I hear a young woman's voice. The last member. The alien with the orange skin and pink hair, glowing green eyes and levitating. Starfire.
"There's only robots, we'll just smash them. Besides, we have been on this case tail for months. How hard could it be?" said Beast boy."We arrived." Dick said. Back to Lexcorp again. Two times in just a week. How fun...
"We'll need a plan." Raven advised. The building was filled with robots.
"We'll divide into two teams. One is to be a distraction and take out the bots. One will sneak into the building and carry Oracle with us. Star, Raven, BB and blue, you're the distraction. Robin batgir... Oracle and I will go in." Nightwing said.
"Yes! Let's go smash some robots."Garfield screamed. He jumped out of the jet, followed by Blue beetle and Raven. "Be careful, Nightwing." Starfire said as she laid a kiss on his head. She jumped out of the jet as well.
"Babs..." Dick started. I start to take my laptop out and checked the floor plans. "The elevator is out until the fifth floor. Then we could ride it to reach the top." I said without even looking up.
"Okay..."
I swear I could feel his voice being sad.
He walked behind me and pushed my wheelchair, with Damien at the front to clear a path. "Get ready."
"Ready for whaaaaaat!"Nightwing pushed the wheelchair off the jet and into the air. He buckled my wheelchair to a big parachute. I closed my eyes, telling myself not to be scared. But still, I was scared. I hug on tightly to Dick's arm, still keeping my eyes shut. He chuckled. "I haven't been off the ground since I was put on this chair, what do you expect!" I yelled, letting go of his arm as we landed.
"Shut up guys!" Damien said. "There are robots all around us."
"Dami, disable them. I'll rush to the door with Babs."
"Code names..."
"Sorry."I laughed at the brotherhood chemistry as I searched my pockets for a weapon. An electric handgun that Harley gifted me for my birthday. It might be the only weapon I could use on this wheelchair.
I can't help wondering... what if I take Lex's offer...? What if, I get my legs back? I can be anything instead of this.
