Chapter Nine-
After the close call in the airport involving the death of the pilot of the jet, two bodyguards, and another shot through Barbara's arm, バットマン had stepped up security. Artemis was in the cockpit of the plane Samuel Grant was flying.
She crossed her arms over her chest, self-conscious of how she looked slouched down 次 to the male pilot.
Everything was peaceful until the Ural Mountains. The plane shook. Artemis ignored it, figuring it was turbulence. That and she didn't want to open her eyes. She hated flying if she wasn't the pilot. The plane shook again and she opened one eye, glancing at the pilot.
He was shaking the controls, diving straight toward the ground.
Artemis jerked up, slamming him into the ウォール and tilting the plane upwards.
"Dlya matushki-Rossii!" he yelled, pulling out a pistol.
Artemis slapped it out of his hand and punched him in the face. He slumped to the ground unconscious. Artemis turned and grabbed the controls, turning the plane towards the ground.
"Fasten your シート, 座席 belts, we're going down for an emergency landing." she 発言しました into the radio before turning her attention back to piloting the plane. The russian tried to get up once, but she kicked him in the face and he fell back into unconsciousness.
Artemis landed the plane gently on the snow. She got up and dragged the pilot to the door. She opened it to see the rest of the staff with AK-47s pointed at her face.
"Cant trust anyone." she muttered.
A black blur came from behind the staff and landed a 迅速, スウィフト kick to each of their heads.
"Where's the real staff?" Artemis asked Red Revenge.
"Dead." Revenge said. "I think these guys could do with some fresh air."
A few moments later, the four guards were laying on the snow. Revenge was kneeling on the ground doing something.
"What are あなた doing now?" Artemis asked, walking over to him.
"Setting a signal for someone to come pick these guys up." Revenge said. He stood up and rammed Artemis in the forehead. She collapsed to the ground.
Revenge dragged her inside and emerged a moment later with Samuel Grant.
"Get some fresh air and hurry." Revenge said.
Grant nodded, walking about looking queasy. Red Revenge walked back inside the plane.
Grant continued to walk. Suddenly, the green-black clad assassin landed in front of him. "Hello!" she 発言しました with a devilish grin. She sliced him on the face and knocked him to the ground. Grant slid backwards a ways before looking up, terror and fear in his eyes.
ヒイラギ, ホリー pulled out a pistol and pointed it at the boy laying in the snow. She grinned and put her finger on the trigger.
But hesitated.
The smile slowly disappeared from her face as she looked at the terrified, helpless boy in front of her. He had done nothing wrong to deserve his life to be cut savagely short によって a girl his age with a pistol in her hand.
And was she a murderer? Would she kill in cold-blood? She could give him a gun and shoot him. But it wouldn't be the same, would it? She knew that he couldn't defend himself. It was the same thing.
Slowly, ヒイラギ, ホリー lowered the pistol.
Revenge leaped from the cliff face and pinned ヒイラギ, ホリー to the ground from behind, handcuffing her hands together behind her back. He pulled her up and stood her up.
"I want あなた to see something." Revenge said. He pulled out a dagger and threw it into Grant's chest. ヒイラギ, ホリー stumbled back. Revenge detonated the dagger. Snow and wiring flew everywhere. When ヒイラギ, ホリー looked back, a pile of fizzling computer chips and hardware was laying there.
"Always hated that robot." Revenge muttered. "C'mon, missy. Let's go."
ヒイラギ, ホリー looked in horror at the vigilante before it dawned on her what had just happened.
"You used it as a test to see if I would kill him." she said.
"Good job, Einstein." Revenge said. "Let's see how long it takes あなた to figure out where you're going?"
"Jail?"
"Close."
Before ヒイラギ, ホリー could inquire what Revenge meant によって that, the archer emerged from the plane looking extremely mad.
"I'll explain in a minute." Revenge said, walking past her. He took ヒイラギ, ホリー to the back of the plane and locked her in, bolting the door shut with three different locks from the outside.
Artemis punched him in the mouth when he emerged from the plane.
"I knocked あなた out because あなた would've tried to save the fake Grant. My test was whether she would actually kill him または not."
"I'm surprised あなた didn't kill her." Artemis replied. "Then I remembered あなた like her."
"Watch your mouth, blondie."
"You could've explained the plan at least!"
"Would've taken too long."
"Batman is going to want to interrogate her. It isn't going to be a nice thing to watch."
"That's why I'm not telling Batman."
Artemis raised an eyebrow.
"Don't tell the League または the Team."
Artemis frowned.
"Please?" Revenge spit out the word as if it were poison.
Artemis's expression didn't change.
"Will あなた not tell the Justice League または the Team, please?" Revenge asked, still bitter.
"I guess that's as nice as あなた get." Artemis said. "Fine."
"Thanks." Revenge said, walking back into the plane.
"Coming?" he asked.
"I think Red Revenge can handle Samuel Grant. Besides, I've got to call in the JL for these guys."
"I owe あなた one."
"Don't forget it." Artemis replied.
Revenge grinned beneath his mask and shut the door. A moment later, the plane took off, headed back for New York.
"Don't tell the Team または the League." Artemis mocked.
"I 発言しました League first." Revenge's voice came over her earpiece.
Artemis growled and crushed it.

TO BE CONCLUDED...
How did I survive?
It was peaceful
Then they came
They took all ‘smart’ and ‘intelligent’ ones
They burned our houses
They burned our city
They burned our people
They almost burned me
She almost burned me
I will never forget her face
Long hair
Blue eyes filled with fire
Angry...
So angry...
She held 火災, 火 in her hand
It didn't hurt her
The 火災, 火 just danced in her hand
She looked at me
Then my parents
Then me
She burned my parents
I ran
It was hot
So much fire
So much burning
I ran
I hid
I dissapered
Now I am here
I am Rostlina
And I am going to kill the 火災, 火 casters.

Dozens of reporters swarmed around the billionaire from New York, but he calmly walked past them all and into the limousine. A bodyguard turned around.
"Mr. Grant has no statement to make." he 発言しました in a heavy accent, and got into the car with the billionaire before it drove off.
"Target moving north."
"Nightwing?"
"What?"
"Did あなた hear that?"
"Yeah. I told あなた the target was moving north."
"It sounded like a girl 発言しました it."
"Do I sound like a girl to you?"
"No."
"Then keep an eye on the target, Batgirl. Nightwing out."

For a moment, Revenge was pressed against her in the narrow hallway in complete darkness. Then, there was a light, from Revenge's mask, and the hallway was lit in a dim red light.
"Ladies first." Revenge said.
"Scared?" Batgirl asked.
"Funny." Revenge said. "I'll take point."
Barbara cut him off. "I'LL take point." she said.
"I've got the light." Revenge said. "And the armor, and the brains."
"Har har, funny."
"Indeed. Watch my back."
"From the scary dark?" Batgirl asked in a mocking voice.
Revenge turned and tossed a dagger into the darkness behind them. It went farther than the three feet of the iron door through which they had entered.
"Any もっと見る smart remarks?"
"Ladies first." Revenge said.
"Scared?" Batgirl asked.
"Funny." Revenge said. "I'll take point."
Barbara cut him off. "I'LL take point." she said.
