"I have never played haky sack with a one ton weight." I chuckle as I show off. After a while of getting used to using my super strength Superman and I began to show off a bit. So here I am balancing a one ton weight on my knee.
"And you won't today." I hear someone behind me chuckle. Turning slightly I see Bruce in his Batman suit standing with his arms crossed.
"Hi Batman." I say with a smile as I grasp the weight and set it down gently.
"I was called because apparently Flash thinks you can out stealth me." He said with a slight smirk. Turning to Flash I glare at him.
"Your assumptions are going to get me killed!" I hiss at him. Turning back to Bruce I shrug. "I don't know what's wrong with him." I say as I prepare to get beat by Bruce.
"We're still trying to figure that out." He says with a shrug.
"Hey! I'm right here you know!" Flash shouts. I shoot him a glare making him sit still. "Or maybe I'm not." He mutters.
"I am curious about your stealth skills none the less. So what do you say, a little game of 'hide and seek'. We'll get some of the League to try to hunt us down. First one caught loses." He suggests still holding a smirk.
"Deal." I nod figuring I might as well try. I mean who gets to play Hide and Seek with the Justice League. Well unless you're a villain.
"Good. J'onn, Canary, Arrow, Superman, Flash, Vixen, Question, Lantern, Hawkgirl and..." as Bruce is finishing picking people Dick walks in. I freeze knowing exactly what Bruce would be thinking. "Nightwing." He says as his eyes dart to mine.
"Of course." I sigh.
"You have a ten second start before they begin their hunting. Good luck." He chuckles as he walks out of the room.
"Crap." I groan as I turn invisible. I dash out of the door right behind Bruce. Staying a safe enough distance back I trail him until we get to the main hallway. Continuing down the other direction of the hall I see the chosen hunters exit the training room.
Crap! Leaping I cling to the ceiling as they all pass by.
"Vixen do you think you can use one of your animal senses to trace her?" Green Lantern asks a dark skinned woman in a skin tight orange body suit.
"I should be able to." She says as she places her hand on her necklace.
I'm dead in the water. I'm right on top of them she'll catch my scent in less than a second. Leaping from the ceiling I speed away from them. Hoping that with the speed I am going at that my scent will be too faint.
They are good. What I need to find is a confined and hard to reach area. The only people that could find me in say an air vent are Martian Manhunter, Question, Vixen and Lantern. I have to get away from the hotspots! Wait? Maybe that's what they expect me to do. Perhaps I should think more like a strategist and less like a caged animal. The only person who would be able to guess my thinking pattern are J'onn and Question.
Although a while ago I perfected the art of keeping out invaders of the mind. And what better time to put it to use. Entering a janitors closet, after checking my surroundings, I climb into an air duct. Sitting absolutely still I probe my mind. Putting up firewalls and fail safes. That should do for now. I've got to keep moving. But the air ducts are so over done. What would Natasha do? That's it! Blend in with the crowd! I climb back out of the air duct and back out of the door.
Entering the training room again following behind another super. I think to be Black Panther. I see Canary, Arrow, and Superman talking to one another. Staying as quiet as possible and moving quickly I stand behind Superman. I think I remember in the comics him having X-ray vision. And if he uses that before I am ready my position would be compromised.
