Nothing with Athena Thomas has ever been calm. But, for once, the world seemed to stop spinning and she allowed herself to take a breath. With Jason Todd safely away from Gotham and Joker back in his cage, Athena is finally able to piece her relationship with her past love -- Dick Grayson -- back together again. But, as Athena has found out, the job never stops. And neither does the anger of those scorned. ~~~~~ "I am not you, Nightingale. I am not weak. And now you will see just who the real prodigy is."

Now with all her debts to the League of Assassins settled, Athena Thomas can take time to find out who she really is, what she really wants, and who she really loves. Luckily, her childhood crush - Dick Grayson - isn't far from sight. The Batfamily is growing in size as more and more heroes offer their lives to protect Gotham. Nightingale is officially one of them and she is devoted to the city. With an alliance so large, Gotham becomes an almost impenetrable sanctuary. Almost. Unknown to Athena, an ancient evil is lurking in the shadows of Gotham, waiting for the perfect moment to rise. And that moment is soon. --------------- "Come with us. We will make you better. We will make you beyond better. We will make you great."

Athena Thomas has been gone for nearly two years. When her and Dick Grayson last saw each other, she was leaving and taking his heart with her. But what happens when she comes back? And where did all those fresh scars come from? While the two struggle with trusting each other again, there is a new "villain" in town. A man by the name of Red Hood is killing and blowing up mobs and gangsters in Gotham. However, when Athena decides to work with the new guy, things get complicated. Can Dick ever trust Athena again, especially when she is siding with his enemy? ------------------------ "Who's it gonna be? Him or me?"

If you lived in Gotham long enough you knew exactly who she was. People feared her. Criminals praised her. Heroes wanted to stop her. Key word, "wanted." But you don't always get what you want, now do you? Brielle Kyle. Otherwise known as Blackout. A young femme fatale- Catwoman's partner, never sidekick. (People knew what would happen if you called her that). She was a criminal by day, and still criminal by night; one of the youngest, most mischievous enemies to the infamous Gotham vigilante, Batman. One day, the Young Justice team manages to catch her, but just by a hair. And that hair was all the Dark Knight needed to swoop in and take her down. Well, more or less. After all, she isn't the "world's greatest escape artist" for nothing. - [ Young Justice (2010) ] [ season one ] [ @alexaveil ]
