Ummm, hi. Sorry this is so late. My computer hasn't been working right and I've been busy studying for my finals next week, so the next update may be a few days late.
Also, if you see anything that doesn't make sense or any errors, please tell me!


--1 Week Later--

Watchtower 1:30 a.m.

Batgirl slowly walked toward the infirmary. The girl they had found almost a week ago was now in a coma. Her bullet wounds had healed remarkably fast, almost as fast as a speedster. According to Black Canary, there was no reason she should be in a coma, but here they were. She was pulled out of her thoughts when she realized that she had arrived. Pushing open the door, she took in the girl's prone form lying next to the sleeping figure of M'gann. The heroes who had rescued her were taking turns watching over her so that when she woke up, she wouldn't be alone. Batgirl gently shook M'gann awake. "Go home. Get some rest."

"I'm fine. I don't ne-," she yawned, contradicting her point. "Okay, maybe I am a little tired."

"Go. I got this."

M'gann nodded in gratitude before exiting the infirmary. A few seconds later, the Zeta Tubes announced her departure. Batgirl sighed and took a seat next to the girl's bed. She started telling her about her day. What bad guys she had stopped, the pop quiz she had in history, going out to dinner with her dad, whatever came to mind. Eventually, her voice trailed off. She then left the room to get a glass of water. When she got back, the bed was empty. Her water glass hit the floor with a loud crash. A few seconds later, the alarm sounded.

-----LINE BREAK-----

15 minutes had passed since the girl had vanished. There had been no sign of her. Batgirl had called in the Kryptonians, the Martians, and the Batclan minus Nightwing. They were only now arriving. Batman quickly took command of the situation off of Batgirl's shoulders. "Now, Red Robin, Batgirl, and I are going to go back to the infirmary and start from there. Miss Martian, J'onn, do a complete mental search of the Watchtower. Clark, Superboy, use your infrared vision and see what you can find."

The heroes quickly went their separate ways. Little did they know someone was watching them from the vents.
