Chapter 3
Sun-Hi's POV.
We appeared in an abandoned alleyway.
The same one where I had met the Riddler for the first time.
Certainly not to be the last.
"Alright. Plan?" I asked.
"You're the one in charge" Channyeol deadpanned me as he sat down on a trash bin, pulling his little sister Korki onto his lap.
"Uhm... Find a refuge and supplies?"
"That sounds more like a question, however isn't that criminal work? You're only 12 going on 13 Sun-Hi." Channyeol chattsied me.
"Well what choice do we have!?" I shouted at him in frustration.
"Fighting with yourself?" Came a male voice from behind me, making me jump.
I spun around.
"Show yourself!"
"There is no one else here but you and me.
So who were you talking to, please tell me."
A dark figure immerged from the dark, he wore a bowlers hat, a green suit and carried a question marked cane which he spun till it rested upon a shoulder.
Riddler.
I remembered Channyeol and Korki weren't visible so there was no way he could see them.
It was probably better that way anyway.
This way I have the advantage of surprise.
"No one".
He smirked at this "Now, now child. I am not an Idiot, I know when someone is lying."
"I know you're not"
"Then who. Am. I?" He punctuated each part of the question.
"You're the Riddler"
"Then riddle me this" he said adjusting his staff so that it laid on both of his shoulders, one hand on each end.
"We're five little items of an every day sort, you'll find us all in a tennis court. What are we?"
"Vowels" came Channyeol's voice from inside my head.
"I knew that one!"
"Course you did."
"Why are oppa and unnie fighting?" Asked Korki.
"Aniya*¹, we are not fighting. It is just... Pestering." Channyeol explained to Korki.
I rolled my eyes and answered "vowels".
He grinned in a way that to others may seem creepy but to me it was just freaking awesome.
Fangirl at 100%!
Ok that's off track.
"Correct..."
Then I got an idea.
Those documents I gave to Ian...
I knew that I needed to get them back, otherwise why would my ancestors have told me not to.
But I needed a plan.
"Should have listened the first time Sun-Hi." Channyeol admonished me.
"Can it" I snapped at him.
Riddler was smart and could probably prove as a valuable ally...
"What has leaves and branches but no bark?" Shocking even myself.
I have never been good with riddles?
A simple thank you would do.
Who are you?
The original owner of the bo-staff you're holding.
That Channyeol dude did say you can bring back others to life if you something belonging to them.
Which would explain why I ended up in this locket. At least ghosts don't smell, unlike Spidey and Bucket-head after training...
No way...
Uh, yes way?
Have you ever shared a room with them? No, you're not in this locket so that's a negative.
And FYI that's my bo-staff missy! Who else would carve the letter 'E' on a bo-staff?!
Element?
Finally!
Boom baby!!!
Element's back!!
-comics I hope you're happy, there's a surprise for you further on in the book ;).
Akray out!♠️
