I got out of the hospital постель, кровати and winced in pain. My ribs still hurt, but my arm was a bit better. In the hall, Вопрос and Huntress were waiting for me.
“Where is everyone?” I asked
“They all went home” Huntress said, getting up.
“Then why are Ты still here?” I pondered
“The least we could do is give Ты a ride home” Huntress smiled
“So, how are we getting there?” I asked. They walked out to the parking lot up to a blue vintage looking car.
“This, is how we’re getting Ты home” Вопрос said, opening the door. I hopped in the back seat, while Huntress and Вопрос got in the front. He started up the car and drove off.
“So, where do Ты live anyway?” Huntress asked
“Mount Justice” I said. We drove off quickly, heading straight to Happy Harbor. I watched as the scenery raced by. We arrived quickly at the mountain. I jumped out.
“Thank Ты for the drive” I smiled
“Night, before Ты go, I wish to know the real reason why Ты faced down Superman” Вопрос said
“I already told you, I’m not good with psychopaths” I turned to him
“Yet, I heard from Shayera Ты disarmed one of Joker’s bombs” he pointed out.
“So, what’s your point?” I demanded
“Joker is a psychopath, so Ты obviously have no conflict with them” Вопрос responded
“Maybe I don’t have a conflict with psychopaths, maybe I do. What’s I to you!?” I yelled. He was getting under my skin. Too close to the core.
“Maybe it’s not that Ты have a conflict with psychopaths, it’s that Ты have a conflict with your loyalty” He continued.
“Shut up!” I yelled. He hit the treasure chest under the big red X. I ran to the mountain and hid in the shadows. I heard Huntress shout as I ran through the door into the mountain. I sat silently in my room and listened to my i-Pod. The song Sweet Sacrifice by Evanescence came on. I started to hum along when someone loudly knocked on my door. I opened it. Kalder was waiting there. He started to say something, but I couldn’t hear him. I took out my headphones, but I still couldn’t hear him. He started to fade. An image of twin old women appeared in his place. My ex-masters.
“He will die in seven days” сказал(-а) one. I woke up with a gasp. I heard a scream. I ran down the hall towards it. It was a girl with red hair. She was kneeling over Kalder’s unmoving body, shaking.
“What’s happened!?” I demanded
“It’s Kalder. He fell into a coma!” the girl said, emotion clogging her voice.
