We agreed to head down to the liquor store where the picture of Monroe was taken. But first, I had to stop my fire arm from burning. It was starting to drive me literally crazy.

"How the hell am I supposed to stop this?" I muttered pacing back and forth feeling the fire's heat increase drastically. I soon stopped since the fire was getting larger with every step I took.

Is this a curse or what?

"Maybe, put some water on it?" Wally suggested, he was now laying on the couch upside down with my jumbo sized chip bag gripped in his hands,he can really eat.

"Dude, we went over this, it wont go out no matter what I do!"

"Fire extinguisher" he went on not caring what I had just told him.

"I doubt that will work considering Batman said it was an alien fire" Robin said, checking the holographic watch thingy.

"Can you maybe search up the symptoms of the fire?Purple smoke, wont go out from water and so on?" I asked looking over Robin's shoulder as he typed something in.

Robin shook his head,"Looks like no results found, Which means we have to figure this out by ourselves".

"Look", I said. "You both don't have to help me. I don't want to distract you guys from other things you actually need to do".

"Are you kidding?" Wally laughed, "This fire stuff is pretty interesting, plus you actually let me eat your food, I mean the second time. So consider us even".

"Besides" Robin put his hand on my shoulder, "We're a team now".

I looked at Robin and Wally, maybe this team isn't so bad after all. I smiled and nodded, but still-some tinge of doubt haunted me.

Instantly we got to work. We all had lab coats and safety goggles on, Robin had tinted safety goggles, he was really obsessed with keeping his ID a secret. But anyways, we were so ambitious to beat this fire.

"It looks as if when you put water on it, it grows by about 2%" Robin did the math. I'm usually picky about my personal space but if it meant getting rid of this fire then that's A OK with me.

"So we need to find it's weakness" Wally replied moving one of the beakers of solutions closer.

"Exactly, my friend" Robin smirked bending down and looking closely at my arm.

If water makes it stronger, and air does too. What about absence of air?

"What if we take the air away from it somehow?" I blurted then face palmed because of how stupid that sounded, "Nevermind" I shook my head,"that's stupid".

"No" Robin said standing up,"That might just work".

"But dude, and how exactly are we going to do that?" Wally asked crossing his arms.

He was right, how in the world were we gonna do that ?

"Wouldn't it just be better if we just find the guys who started this whole fire business and force them to tell us what we are supposed to do with it?" I interjected.

"That may be difficult since they are on the run and they are villains why would they help us?" Robin narrowed his eyes.

"How about we threaten them?" I asked, yeah I know that may sound like a little too much, but hey look what they did to me! I have a reason to be mad.

"There's no use for that" Robin put his hand up,"We'll find another way, but we just need to do it quick".

There was a long moment of silence of us just standing there and staring at my stupid arm.
