We just finished eating when the lights went out, I didn't know what was going on, but Sister did. She jumped up and grabbed my hand.
"Damien, he found us. You have to do exactly what I say ok?" She stops for a second by the wall.
"Ok." She then snaps her head to the windows, I look there to but can't see anything.
"Jane, Damien, where are you?"
"Bruce, he's here! We need to get out, buy us all the time you can!" Jane then grabs my hand and hands me the backpack. Once she stands up, the windows bust. We dart out of the dinning room and start to run Dow he hallways, Jane is looking all around. But then, two people fall from the ceiling. Bit armed with swords, I glance around, nothing I can use as a weapon. Jane then gets into a defensive stance, and pulls something out of her sleeve.
"Damien, run!" I listen and run forward, I hear two bodies hit the ground but then my sister gets next to me.
"Where are we going?"
"Away from Gotham, what where you trained with?"
"A Katana blade, throwing stars, and martial arts. Why?"
"We may need them, by the way, can you run any faster?"
"No, and how are you so quiet?"
"Training and enhanced body. Now stay close to me, we are probably going to run into slade." I nod then follow her, we reach a dead end, and then, Slade appears behind us.
"Ahh, the Heir to the Demon. And a child, oh, excuse me, the President." I see my sister stiffen as Slade talks.
"Slade, what do you want?"
"Your voice sounds familiar to me? However, I want to get rid of Rash and his family!" I stiffen at this.
"Well, you will never find them all! Some of them are hiding." Slade laughs at this.
"What, you mean that pathetic girl that was around nine years ago? Please, she died. You boy, are the one I need to take out." He lunges at me, but sister blocks his blade with a dagger.
"Don't touch my brother, you murder!" She shoves him back, then throwing stars appear in her hand. She throws them at Slade, he dogged them, but not the dagger she threw while he was distracted. It hit him, and he then went flying backwards and stuck to the wall. Sister then grbbed me, then ran at the window. She jumped out of the window, I'm holding on to her for dear life. Sister uses her body to shield me from the fall, we roll in the grass before she gets up and grabs my hand.
"Are you alright?" I look at her, confused.
"I'm fine, sister are you alright?"
"Fine, let's go. That won't hold him for long." I nod, but then Jane picks me up and places me on her back.
"What are you doing?!?"
"Giving you a lift, I'm almost as fast as a speedster. Hang on." When she says this, we are off. We are running faster than cars, how can she go so fast?

We get to happy harbor after thirty minutes of running, Sister then puts me down and collapses to her knees.
"Sister! Are you alright?" She gives me a weak smile.
"Fine, just haven't run that far or fast in a while. I guess I'm a bit rusty, now Damien, don't talk to anyone understand?" I nod then help sister up. She grabs my hand and leads me to a coffee shop, we get some food, then she uses the free wifi to get on her computer. I see she is hacking into the Justice League system, she gets in after two minutes of hacking. I see her write some stuff down then she re encrypts the stuff and closes her computer.
"Damien, I'm going to take you to my safe house here. We have to be careful ok?" I nod and follow her. We arrived at a Crater in the ground, I look over at sister confused, only to find she has tears in her eyes.
"Sister, what's wrong? Do you know this place?" She looks at me then nods.
"Yes, this used to be my home. The hideout for the team, we called it the cave. It was the original base for the League, the cave was the first place where I felt welcomed and safe. Hopefully my safe house is still here. If Kalder destroyed it, I'm gonna kick his ass." I follow sister through the destruction, then we get to an area by the beach. I look at her in confusion, but she just approaches the rock, suddenly a scanner appears.
"Recognized Blue J B03" a door opens, and then Sister leads me in. When the door closes, lights turn on, and I'm surprised by what I see. There are hallways leading to different areas, a kitchen, living room, and other things.
"Wow, how did you do this?" I see her smirk, but then go sad.
"This was a part of the Cave that had been forgotten, I found it by accident actually. This is the part of the cave that the bad guys destroyed, making the League go to the watch tower. I found the part in the cave where the League tried to hide the cave in. You see Damien, I was left behind a lot when I first joined the team. Because I was only 7, however I was a child that couldn't sit still, when I found this place. I started fixing it up, it has internet and electricity. There are ten bedrooms in here, bathrooms, and other things. The training room needs to be fixed up before we can use it, but other than that, I've fixed this part of the cave. Sadly the Zetatubes where in the main hangar of the mountain, so our main way in is through the rock we just came through. Now go on, look around. I have to put some things away." I nod as she takes the backpack, then I head off to explore.
I find a room with shelves and items on the shelves, I wonder what those are? Then I check out some of the bedrooms, I find one that's totally messed up. I go inside of it to check it out, I find pictures all along the wall.
I'm curious as to who is in the pictures but when I get close, I'm shocked.
These are pictures of Sister.

There is a picture with mother and sister, sister looks about six years old. Another picture of sister but with three people I don't recognize, they are on a trapeze. Then there are a lot of pictures of sister with teenagers, her in fancy dresses, her in her suit, even her on missions.
"I see you found my room." I spin around to find Sister staring at me, a sad smile is on her face.
"Sorry, I was just curious as to who the pictures where of. Could you please tell me?"

Jane's point of view

"Sure." I approach the wall covered in pictures.
"This is a picture of me and my biological family. We lived in a circus, we joined it when I was born. Our family was poor, and then we got offered a chance at a better life. None of us knew English so we learned it, but then my parents where murdered in front of my brother three days after Thalia abducted me. This is a picture of me and our dear mother. And then these are pictures of me and the team." I take a breath, the memories flooding back into my head.
"This is Artemis, Walley, Robin, Superboy, Megan, and Aqualad. We where the original members of the team. Robin is my biological brother, him and his two bed friends at the time, Aqualad and Kid Flash, found me frozen at Cadmus. They got me and Superboy out, Superboy is a clone. While I was frozen, my body didn't age. So I looked like a six year old still, but I was actually eleven. I quickly became good friends with the other members of the team, and after a few missions, Artemis joined up. I was the only person to trust her at first, Everyone else kept comparing her to Roy, Red Arrow. But then the rest of the team trusted her after some missions. We went on a mission to stop Morrow, but that mission is when more of my Cadmus program showed, I was controlled and then they had me go to I think Quebec. Scientists finished their work on me, and now I heal supernaturally, the team found me and brought me back. They also had my body grow to reach my age, so I was shocked when I woke up. After that, there where a few accidents, like when all adults disappeared. We fought off Clarion, but he blasted me with magic, forcing me to be stuck between both realities. And because he is a stupid witch boy, he aged me to match the same age as my family member, because he thought all my family was dead. Nope, then I became twins with Dick." I point tot he pictures as I describe the events.
"Faith did some magic, and then I lived in peace for a month. Sadly the Light needed stuff and I was in charge of Wayne tech that day. Joker set off earthquake in Gotham, the Wayne Tech building fell over. I was holding twenty people and myself, when the building finally collapsed, I pulled them up, and in a way, stretched out my healing power and kept everyone alive. After that, we faced stareowbtwch and the League. I got mocked out during the battle, but when I woke up, we won. About a month after this happened, Aqualad betrayed us. He joined Black Manta, his father, and became part of the Light. Robin, Kid Flash, Artemis, and myself went to go and try to get home to come back to us. When it became clear he was not going to come back, Robin lost it. All he wanted to do was take him into custody, so I knocked him out, then took on Aqualad so Artemis and Kid Flash could get him out of the building. However, Black Manta shoot me, and then I was holding on for dear life. Aqualad said he was sorry, and I said So am I. I let go and fell into fire and metal debris. Another explosion happened and I got buried by the collapsing building. I woke up a week later, with all my memories. Fate's spell broke, and I knew everyone thought I was dead. I spent the next four years on the run, then my brother found me. He was leading the team at the time. Nightwing. I managed to get him to look for me in Russia, but I didn't make it out with him. It took me a month to get to Spain, then I stole a boat and headed for Santa Prisca, but the boat ran out of gas halfway there, so I swam the rest of the way to the island. Got bit by a shark, but managed to get back to my brother." I show Damien my shark bite scar, then go back to my story.
"Walley then died, but I saved him. Then next month, I became President. I wasn't able to come back here for my pictures or things at the time, but now this is where we will be staying till Slade is dealt with." Damien nods, then I head out to the kitchen. This is going to be hard.
