Super Secrets

Kara

As soon as I seen Dick, I rushed to him. Grabbing his arms I pulled him into a big hug and held him as he sobbed. Staring down at Zena's body I could see a small smile on her face. Both Dad's rushed over soon after, Bruce took Dick into his arms, comforting him as Clark came to my side. He rolled Zena onto her back and sighed.

"She's not dead! Please I can't loose someone else!" Dick screams filled the room as Clark lifted Zena's body.

"We will have a service for her when you are ready, Dick." Bruce told Dick as Clark carried Zena's body away. Afterwards we all returned to the house. Silence seemed to be engulfing both our hearts and home. Alfred made us all tea and offered food but nobody was hungry. Dick went to Zena's room, and we gave him the space he needed. Bruce went to the batcave, I sat in the living room staring out the window while Clark went to his room. Hours passed before Bruce appeared in the living room. I didn't notice him until he sat beside me.

"Hey." He broke the silence and I looked down.

"I'm sorry." He said and I wiped the tears from my face.

"I know your in pain, sweetheart." He said struggling to speak. I didn't know what to say so I stayed silent.

"I wish I knew what to say to make everything better but I don't. Im not very good at this whole sharing feelings thing but I want you to know I'm here for you and Dick." He said and I looked at him.

"I've almost lost everyone. I lost a niece, two sisters and a friend. I almost lost you too." I told him sobbing as I spoke.

"Why didn't you tell us you were sick!?" I asked and he looked down.

"I didn't want to believe it." He replied  before looking up at me.

"It wasn't something I thought I needed to worry you with." He said pressing his palm against my cheek.

"It's not fair! I tell you everything! Why do you keep secrets from me like this?" I sobbed and he pulled me into a hug.

"I'm so sorry, Kara. I didn't think it was important. I love you." He sobbed as well. We sat there hugging until someone cleared their throat. Pulling away we both stared at Dick. He had a suitcase in his hand and was looking away from us.

"I'm leaving." He said hoarsely before clearing his throat.

"It's time I've gone and made something of myself." He explained as he walked to the front door. I jumped up and ran to the door hugging him tightly.

"I'll miss you." I told him and he let out a shaky breath.

"I'll miss you too." He said and I looked up at him.

"Promise me you'll stay in touch?" I asked and he smiled.

"I promise." He said and I let go stepping back.

"Tell Clark I said goodbye." He said before closing the door. From outside I could hear a motorcycle go on and then minutes later drive away. Turning my eyes landed on my father. Clark was dressed for work, straightening his glasses and letting out a sigh.

"Where are you going?" Bruce asked joining me in front of the door.

"I got called to work. There's something attacking the city." He explained as he grabbed his coat. He turned to me and I looked down.

"We will hold a service for everyone tonight." He told Bruce as he seemed to watch me. Before he left he grabbed my chin, directing it upwards and kissed my forehead.

"I love you Dad." I said and he smiled.

"I love you to daughter." He said before turning and walking out of the house. After a few minutes Bruce disappeared and I sat back in the living room. Staring out the window I decided to grab my jacket and walk out to the garden. Falling to my knees, tears streamed down my face as I looked at all the different colored roses. A smile crossed my face as I touched a green rose.

"You are here still aren't you?" I asked and closed my eyes.

"What's going on?" I turned to see Diana standing there.

"Oh Diana its horrible. Everyone's dead. Heliconia, Zena and Lily! I'm so sor-" I paused as a young man was red from behind Diana. Worry crossed his face as he stared at me with disbelief.

"Lily? No, your lying." He said as he looked down.

"Bobby go home." Diana said turning to him. He stepped forward and grabbed a rose smashing it in his hand.

"Not until I see Lily!" He yelled throwing the rose down. Tears streamed down his face as he sobbed.

"I'm so sorry, Bobby." I said and he fell to his knees. Diana stepped forward pressing her hand to his shoulder and sighed. I was about to turn when the rose he smashed before, turned to a bright red living one. We all stared at it as he picked it up and sighed.

"Lily, I'm so sorry." He sobbed and Diana straightened up. Grabbing my arm we walked out of the shed and back to the house.

"How did this happen?" Diana asked and I looked down.

" Its a long story." I said looking down. As I did Bruce came into the room.

"I can tell you." He explained and we looked at him.

"It all started with a girl name Katarina." He began as he explained the whole story. After two hours he let out a sigh.

"And I think Lily was never actually Heliconia's daughter, but more of a sprout of her power. Heliconia had more of Poison Ivy then Clark the whole time so she struggled between evil and good her whole life." He explained as I dried my eyes.

"Now what?" Diana asked as the front door opened. We all turned to see Clark standing there covered in dirt.

"Let's have the service." He explained and we nodded. Nobody dressed nicely or got made up as Bobby, Clark, Bruce, Alfred, Diana and I gathered before three graves.

"Does anyone wish to say anything?" Clark asked and I stepped forward. Tears began falling from my eyes as I began.

"Our friends, and family, Zena a brave girl we had just met and became one of us, Heliconia a dear sister and daughter, and Lily a niece, daughter and granddaughter. You will be missed. Your strength will inspire us to go forth and make this world a proper place. Your love will helps us to be compassionate and love those we know. Your memories will remind us of the cost of love and how it will forever be worth it. We will miss your laughs, and smiles, hugs and kisses. Your memory will live on in us forever in secret." I finished and stepped backwards as both my father's put their hands on my shoulders. Bobby placed flowers down at all the graves and we stood looking over the graves.

"Nobody will ever know about them." Diana said and we looked down.

"No, we will." Bruce said smiling.

"It will be our secret to keep. So no one could ever take them away from us." He explained and I smiled.

"A super secret."
