Barbara groaned as her teacher handed out another quiz she hadn't prepared for, hadn't studied for at all really. Not that she had the time with the new patrol timetable Tim had sorted out for everyone.

Ever since Loki failed to invade New York a few months ago, the world had become jumbled mess. As it was, vigilantes were now slowly being accepted internationally as a viable peacekeeping force.

It was that little shit, Damien that had said he had the aura of a killer.

' "It's the way he walks, the way his eyes just drift over you...Just, listen! I was raised to be an assassin and grew up with assassins, I know a murderer when I see one" ' Barbara quoted the problem child in her head.
