~~~~Nightwing's POV~~~~
Maxine thought that Joker was here again, but I know he wasn't. I'm really worried about her mental condition, I think killing Ethan hit her deep and then she thought the bullet had killed me. Looking at her sleeping, she's so peaceful, but every once in a while, she'll frown like something bad has happened in her mind. I reach to hug her on the pallet I found, maybe she can be healed by the Professor. The girl who can heal anything needs healing, the irony isn't humorous, but sad and it hurts me just thinking about her pain. She put her life and innocence on the line, and it was destroyed, I hope it can still be salvaged.
It's my fault, that the girl who was so happy, creative, kind, and encouraging, the girl I fell in love with, went through any of this. I probably could've went with her during the Helicarrier crash, I could've protected her while she was cleaning up the network to get it back online, I could've saved her from Joker, I could've done so many things to help her, but I... didn't.
A door opens towards the front of the building and she shoots up breathing heavily. I put my hand on her shoulder and motion for her to be quiet, she nods and gets up with me. She moves towards the front slowly and turns the corner, but instead of staying there she runs ahead and I can hear laughter from different people echoing off the walls. I walk in the room and see that Wolverine and Spiderman had gotten the rest of the team and followed us here.
Maxi is hugging Wolverine and he is very surprised at this, but when she stops he narrows his eyes at his jacket.
"Why did you come, Logan?" She asks him.
"I was looking for my jacket and saw the wreckage of the plane crash." He sees me and nods his head, I return the gesture. He walks over and asks me what happened while we were gone.
"I'll tell you tonight, when everyone's asleep."
~~~~~Later on...~~~~~
Maxine just feel asleep beside me, her wings are wrapped around her body. I get up slowly not to wake her, it's harder than most people because of her hearing. Wolverine is sitting on a box, I walk silently over to him and tell him what happened to Maxine and how we had a MRD in our group the whole time. His face looks tired and he sighs.
"Maxine was one of the best people I knew, she wasn't revenge bent, she was caring and willful, very hard headed with what she thought was right, which it usually was, I'm sure the professor can help her, we just have to go back to America."
"How did you get here?" I ask and he smirks a little.
"I 'borrowed' a plane." He says and I smile.
"That's exactly how we got here, except you probably didn't crash yours."
"You're right about that, I even cloaked it."
"Let's leave tomorrow." I say, and we both get up, he goes to the other room and I go lay down with Maxine again.
"Where were you?" She just woke up.
"I got up and stretched." She nods her head and comes closer, putting her head on my chest. We're alone.
