Chapter Eleven:


Nightwing ran to the wreckage. He picked up a large piece of debris and tossed it to the side.

"Revenge?"

Barbara appeared 次 to him, yelling for Revenge's female counterpart.

"Infrared is picking up nothing." Barbara said. She put a hand on Nightwing's shoulder. "Dick, I'm sorry."






24 Hours Earlier...


"Wake up!"

ヒイラギ, ホリー groaned. "Go to sleep, Cassie."

"Cassie?"

ヒイラギ, ホリー woke up and turned to see another schoolgirl standing beside her.

"Sorry, thinking of my..best friend." ヒイラギ, ホリー said, improvising. "What are あなた waking us up for?"

The girl didn't respond. "Follow me."

ヒイラギ, ホリー rolled her eyes and slipped on some jeans and a tank top. She looked at the utility ベルト and equipment, but decided against it. She hauled Cassie out of the ベッド and the two sleepily followed the girl, in full uniform, down the hall.

The girl opened the door to the head mistresses office. ヒイラギ, ホリー walked in and was immediately awake.

The headmistress was dressed in an オレンジ and black outfit much like Artemis's. Her devilish grin remained in its usual place. Around her were ten girls, all with AK-47s pointed at ヒイラギ, ホリー and Cassie.

"Clone them, then destroy the 情報源 material." タランチュラ said. "So commands the Light."

The girls started to lead ヒイラギ, ホリー and Cassie out when タランチュラ spoke again. "Leave ヒイラギ, ホリー Green. The Light wishes to deal with their traitors in their own way."

"How did you--?"

"Please, Holly. Every establishment of the Light has a bounty on your head. We know what あなた look like. Also considering the fact everything あなた and your single partner reacted to, it was easy to figure out the Justice League sent あなた to do their dirty work."

ヒイラギ, ホリー leaped at Tarantula, but hit an invisible wall. She fell to the ground, face scrunched in pain, making a moaning sound.

"Also, devices in your necks were surgically attached the first night yo slept here. I have the controls to kill you, electrocute you, または apply any other amount of pain to you." タランチュラ said, waving the remote.

"Cassie." ヒイラギ, ホリー groaned. "Now."

Cassie flew to the 上, ページのトップへ of the roof and tossed her lasso (which she constantly had hidden beneath her shirt) at the remote in Tarantula's hand. She grabbed it and landed, looking at her victory.

The clicking of ten AKs brought her attention back to タランチュラ and her clones.

"Give me the remote and run along like a good girl." タランチュラ said.

Cassie gulped and handed タランチュラ back the remote.

"Take them to the cloning facility. Double security."

The rest of the schoolgirls nodded and shoved the girls out the door.

"I just hope Megan and Barbara found that other girl." Cassie muttered.

All ヒイラギ, ホリー could do was moan in agreement as she was dragged similar-conscious down the hallway.

---------------------------------------------------

Barbara landed in a squatting position. Megan landed invisibly behind the girl who stuck to the shadows. Megan clutched her head.

"What is it?" Barbara asked.

"It's Holly." The Martian replied. "She's in pain. And Cassie's in distress! We have to help them! Something went wrong!"

"No." Barbara said. "We're here to save the girl and that's what we're going to do."




A blinking image popped up on Red Revenge's screen.

"Go time."

"Agreed, partner."
