Chapter 10
I bite my plump lips before they start trembling. "I never wanted you to find out like that." I admit as tears start to well up in my electric blue eyes. "Not like that," I whisper to myself repeatedly. I curve my lips into a smile.
"You know you always smile when you're sad," I whip my head to look at Dick, "it was always how I knew." I turn my entire body to face him. Only to realize he's already facing me with his arms at his sides. His night sky hair brushing slightly over his sapphire eyes. "I didn't realize I did that." I blurt out. He cautiously moves his hands to grab mine. Once he reaches my hands he tangles his calloused hands with mine. I just stare at our intertwined hands fitting together like two puzzle pieces completing a puzzle. I slowly look up at his stupidly handsome face in silence.
He inhales sharply. "I don't want to be at each others throats anymore. I already lost one best friend I don't want to lose another." A sweet smile appears on my face. I notice how tired he looks at the moment. Carefully I untangle my right hand from his. I raise his face from looking at the ground to looking at me. "That's all I can ask for." I explained to him. I pull him into a hug. His warm embrace so comforting.
Someone pushes the two of us apart. We step back from each other. "Grayson, father declared it is time to leave." Damian announces to Dick. I chuckle at his antics. I bend down, and scoop Damian into a hug. "Damian if you wanted a hug all you had to do is ask," I chuckle at him. "Sister stop squeezing me with your body." He huffs out. Dick chuckles as I release him.
"Well I guess you both have to go?" I question them. Damian nods. "I guess so." Dick tells me. He lingers a few seconds before Damian starts dragging him to Bruce. I shake my head at them as I follow them to the door.
*Time skip 2 days later at the Watch Tower*
B00 the mechanical voice says aloud.
My eyes adjust once I step out of the zeta tube. The entire Team is here along with my mother, Batman, and Martian Manhunter (Uncle J'onn). I walk up to them. Deciding to stand next to Nightwing. "Electrix Talons glad to see you could make it." Batman booms once he sees me. "Like I would miss my first day Uncle B." I retort back swiftly. Earning a few snorts.
"Let's start." Mom says. I follow her to the interrogation room. I roll my eyes beneath my domino mask. Do we really have to do this? Yes Electra it is protocol. Dang it. I proceed to sit in the chair opposite to Mother. While Uncle B turns on the camera to record us. (Italics-Black Canary)
"Name? Electra Laurel Queen Aka Electrix Talons
Sex? Female, obviously.
Eyes? Electric Blue
Hair? Blonde almost white.
Skin color? Caucasian with a slight tan. Do we have to do this?"
Yes Electra. Okay now let's go further along. What are you keeping a secret? My superhero identity.
What are you lying to yourself about? That I'm fine being the bad guy.
To others? Go ahead and make me the bad guy.
*Dick's p.o.v*
I stand watching the others train. My mind wandering to Electra. What is she answering right now? I notice Conner flip La'gann. Point Superboy the computer announces. When Electra comes in.
Her white blonde hair cascades down her faces into a pool in the hood of her cloak. Vibrant Electric blue eyes hidden beneath the black and white domino mask. The blue lipstick (the same as my suit) she's wearing makes her plump lips extremely noticeable, more so than usual. Her black heeled combat boots click against the floor. Everyone stops what they are doing to look at her.
Once she reaches us is when she finally talks. "Okay everyone as the Team's new trainer let's get started." Her voice honey sweet reaches my ears. It takes me a few seconds to actually process what she says. "Today we are going to start with partner sparring. Anticipating your opponents next move. So before we actually start anything some rules. No purposefully hurting anyone on the team," she looks sharply at Damian, "and if I find out I won't hesitate to retaliate back. Next off this is training, yes, but treat it like an actual fight. Next don't be late or miss training it shows you don't care. And if you are going to do-" I interrupt her speech. "Let one of the senior members of the team or Electrix know first."
She smiles sweetly at me. "Okay that's my rules I expect you to follow them. Let's start pairing up! Conner and M'gann. Cassie and Red Robin. Batgirl and Red Hood. Karen and Mal. Artemis and Gar. Jamie and Robin. Aqualad and Bart. And Nightwing you're with me." She says with a smirk twisted on her lips. This is going to be interesting. "As in dating." Jason quickly retorts. To which E shocks him. I try not to blush and keep a straight face.
E takes off her black and blue cloak that's lined with white. Revealing her curvy, toned body clad in a black one piece with blue accents and a blue bird similar to the one on my chest. A black utility belt hangs low on her hips. Her legs clad in black and white tights disappearing into her black combat boots with white laces that hug her legs like a second skin. The only person in the world that can beat me.
