18. Personal File
"Where'd you two get too?" Robin asked, Le Bitch lurking behind. Though right now I couldn't care less, the deluded bald guy back there just told me he was my Dad! What a lowlife.
He's bound to be lying because he's had plenty of times to tell me, for example, when he put that electronic collar on me like he did with M'gnn, he could of said then. Any other time for sure, before I was supposedly buried by my physo 'mother'.
Sure. Totally going to believe a guy with more criminal records than the amount of stars on the American flag (learnt that one is geography with Kev).
"Kara?" Wally said waving a hand infront of my face as I zoned out back there.
"What?!" I snapped, he backed away a bit by surprise.
It's not my fault I'm angry, did I not just say about some insane man telling me he's my biological father?!
I looked at the rest of them, M'gnn who was shivering and frightened from what's happened, Robin once again tapping away at the arm keyboard pad, Aqualad setting some stuff In the Airship thingy, Wally digging the soles of his shoes into the ground, Le Bitch being bitch (no I don't care if I'm judging) and Connor, well in what we just experienced...Damn freaked out.
Later At Mt.Justice
"You okay Kara?" M'gnn asked as she caught me staring straight at the wall.
I keep dazing out today.
"Yeah fine..." I said continuing staring at the lovely lime coloured walls.
She (M'gnn) was still pretty tense from the past few hours. Of all people I should understand, she's always there for me and being welcoming, but I can't. I really can't focus on anything right now.
Do you expect me to?
Because I don't!
It's not like the league or whatever would tell you that, I mean, if it was true (which it isn't!) they would tell me right?
I know what would tell me everything.
My personal file.
I mean, it's in all the movies. You always have to check someone's file, if you want to know about them and their background. Perfect.
I quickly walked out the kitchen and passed the living area, where Le Bitch and Robin were, better get out of there before it turns PG-13 - ah learning it all from the back of old DVD discs.
I dashed down the stairs and entered where the League normally is, but wasn't today. They must have a meeting or something, better make this quick! I found the cabinet of files in the corner, under lock and chain. Great.
Wait, I have heat vision. This could work, I stepped back a bit and then released the heat from my eyes directly on the path of the chain. Fortunately, it came lose, I hurried to wipe the chains off then undid the lock with a curby. Works every time.
This thing was in alphabetical order, I soon found the 'S' and worked my way from there...Shazam...Stargirl...Superboy, aha! Supergirl.
I clawed at it until it came lose from the fence of files, I then flipped it open, it had a bunch of information.
Name : Kara Zor-EL
Known As : Supergirl
Birth : Unknown
Age : 15 to 16
Powers/Abilities : Heat vision, superhuman strength, speed, stamina, various extra sensory, X-ray vision, superhearing, invulnerability, skilled martial artist, flight.
Discovered : Under the ground. Note: Too shallow to have actually flown from Krypton. Implied burial.
Too shallow? That means, I didn't come from Krypton? But, but my DNA? That's somehow related to Superman, right?
I continued searching through the file, pages of it, I tried to find the DNA part, if I was included. Though I found something else.
Notes : The whereabouts where Kara Zor-EL was discovered, may have not arrived from Krypton itself. The League has been informed by Lex Luther (Villain, see file #V078) that Kara Zor-EL was (is) his project. Implied tampering, scientific exposure, etc.
What? His project?
I don't belong to anybody.
They didn't even tell me! That would of helped you know.
"Kara?" I heard from behind me.
Oh damn, I knew that voice. I turned round holding the file to face the one and only Superman, he didn't look extremely happy. Behind him were some of the other league, Batman wasn't it? He was there when I was 'discovered'. Wonder Woman too, Le Bitch told me about her, they seem pretty close. One strange man or alien, who looked alot like M'gnn, in a masculine way, another who was alot like Wally, chilling out and eating. That must of been Flash. Then a couple more I couldn't see.
"What are you doing?" Superman asked sternly.
Um, well. "Just checking this." I said waving the file around a smidge.
"That's private." Batman said, intruding our conversation.
"Not when it's about me." I said a little more confidently.
The league were taken back on how I was speaking to them, well if someone was hiding from you about your own DNA or who your father might be. I guess I'm just taking distract measures. He lied too for that matter.
"Kara you wouldn't understand." Superman said.
"What? The Lex Luther bit? Or the fact you didn't tell me I wasn't from Krypton? Maybe it's the bit where you hide my own DNA from me, huh?" I said angrily.
No one said anything, they looked uncomfortable, cautious and in Superman's case. Angry.
"Give that to me!" he said trying to grab the file.
"Get off!" I said swatting him with it.
Oh great, Kara. Attacking not only your team members, but the leagues team members.
He tried to reach for it one last time before I punched him in the chest, though it's likely he has the same powers as me, so he won't feel a thing. Then again, I have Superhuman strength and...
He looked mad, very mad. Not Mad Hatter mad, just mad.
He lifted his fist at me.
He lifted his fist at me.
As I cowered in the corner clutching the file I hadn't let go of. Batman and Wonder Woman brought Superman round. Not like CPR. I mean, they showed him that he fist was aiming at me, me. Who is 15 or 16, that's actually very uncomfortable that I don't know my age. Is it also very uncomfortable being the centre of attention with the most powered man on Earth, pointing a fist at you while half the Justice League watches and tries to intervene.
And when he held his fist at me.
I knew, for that split second.
We were not related.
