Emily POV
I got out of the hospital after a week. I had to refuse to see any visitors because of Hugo. Afterwards, I was sent back to Wayne Manor where I was greeted by Jim, Harvey, Bruce, Alfred, and Selina. They had decorated a welcome home sign. All of them hugged me and were taking turns with Jerome Jr. and Selina. "So, what's your plan now?" Alfred asks. "I have to go back to Princeton to take some exams. With all the extra credit I've been doing, I'm sure to graduate soon. I have 72 credit hours. I'm lacking 20. It shouldn't take that long for me to graduate. Afterwards, I can always look for another position if you get tired of me." Everyone chuckles and Jim asks me a question. "What's your degree in?" "I doubled majored in criminal justice and psychology. It was a lot of work but I want the best for myself and my children." I look at Jerome Jr. and Selina Marie being held by Bruce and Selina Kyle. "We have a position open at the GCPD. We need a consultant with us. It pays a lot with benefits." I shrugged my shoulders and say, "I'll think about it. Can I have my children back?" Bruce and Selina walk to give me the twins. "Thanks for naming your kid after me, Emily." says Selina Kyle. "If you don't mind, I'd like to retire to my room and put my children to bed." Alfred got up, picked my bags from the corner and helped me upstairs. Bruce wanted to throw a small party for the children tonight so I need to rest and so do they. I open up my room and it had been rearranged for the babies. There were two separate cribs, one blue and one pink. Alfred places Selina in the pink crib while I placed Jerome Jr. in the blue crib. Alfred left me alone to rest and he shut the door. I sit on my king size bed and ponder what Strange told me about my abilities. I dare not say anything to the rest of the gang. The last thing that I need is to have some odd glances from anyone. I go out onto the balcony from my room and look out. I can see Gotham in the distance. I need to see Strange. "He said I had the ability of flight. Here goes nothing." I say. I then concentrate on trying to fly. Nothing is happening. I then decide to do something stupid. I jump off the balcony to see if my instincts would kick in. I plummet to the ground but I stop mid-air. I'm floating! I guess Strange wasn't lying. I fly all the way to Gotham, on the top of Arkham. The view is nice up here but my thoughts are interrupted. "So you're here." I smile and turn around. Dr. Strange is standing there with his hands in his lab coat.
Dr. Hugo Strange POV
Emily has arrived. She has decided to take my deal. "How do you like your powers?" I ask. Emily looks at me. Her eyes are flashing with electricity. A fascinating trait. "I like them but I want to make a deal." I smile and say, "I'm listening." Emily walks up close to me. "You teach me how to use my powers in exchange for favors. If you need anything, I'll be of service to you but not always. I can't serve two masters." I chuckle. "May I ask who is the other?" "My children. I'm their mother after all and I made myself promise to always care and love them for the rest of my life. Can you hold your end to the bargain?" I extend my hand and she extended hers. She and I shake hands. Her hands literally shock me. I can't begin to express how powerful she is and what an asset she is to me. "I'll come back tomorrow, Strange. I have to go and celebrate my children's one week birthday. See you tomorrow." She waves at me and flys off. That girl is special and I hope that she knows that.
