The assassin and the hero

chapter two

We don't choose to be a hero it choses us .

sometimes we don't know ourselves as we think we do .

life has secrets that we don't know but we always know that secrets can't be kept for so long even if we try so hard .

They have finally founded a team , a team of young heroes , they can prove themselves that they are as good as the justice league .

He enjoyed being part of a team away from Gotham with people his age or almost his age .

But it was harder to keep his secret it was like magic wanted to be released , used especially when he sees the criminals beat his friends , the voice whispers of letting out the demon , the monster inside of him ,to make them suffer for hurting his family .

He never believed in good and evil , people where grey a mix between black and white .

The end of the movie broke his thoughts .

"Well I never thought I will ever watch a movie this lame "commented Artemis .

"And you saw how she screamed , who the hell sits there and screams while a zombie tries to attack her ?" said Wally .

"well who cares about them ?"Connor was annoyed he really didn't like the movie.

"Well guys I need to go , I hope we will have a mission tomorrow " said Robin walking away from his team , before he could teleport back to Gotham , Wally stopped him .

"Hey Rob , are you well you look more anxious than usual something happened?" Wally asked in concern. Robin looked at his friend and gave him a small smile that didn't reach his eyes.

'Don't worry Wally, everything is fine. The crime rate in Gotham is higher so patrols take longer than usual.' replied Robin, he gave Wally a small grin before heading to the zeta tubes.

Gotham cemetery :

After buying one bouquet of my mother's favorite flower type, I went to visit my parents grave. Walking between the graves I thought about the day I lost my family. It's unfair that they had died . I miss my family everyday. Sometimes I feel lost without them.

I reached my parents grave I looked at my mother's grave and put the  bouquet  on it. "Hi mom' I started ' I guess happy birthday, I hope wherever you are you are happy. Remember when I told you about the illegal human traffic well guess what a week ago the team had a mission, we were successful we stopped the illegal human traffic. Since then we didn't have any mission' I paused trying to collect my thoughts. ' Truth to be told I feel lost right now , I tried to keep it a secret and I still do but it's getting harder and harder to do. I don't know what to do. I wish you were hear so you can guide me to the right path. I am afraid to reveal it , what will the others think about me , what will Wally and Bruce think? They will be disappointed, I can't let that happen, I just can't lose more family members.'

I let out silent cries , tears running down my face. I sat down beside my mother's grave and stayed there silently crying and deep in thought.
