“What happened?! Why'd the communication get cut off?!”
Jade looked away from the inquiring bird, tears in her eyes.
“They got her.”
Silence filled the mountain. minutos stretched on, each lost in their own shocked thoughts.
“We-we have to go after her!” Robin exclaimed.
Jade shook her head.
“The Blade doesn't keep prisoners Robin. I'm sorry.”
“You're wrong, Jade.”
All eyes turned to a girl who was sitting on a low beam above the doorway.
“Devin,” Artemis whispered.
“What'd you say?” Robin asked.
“Jade is wrong. Becca is still alive. She is of use to them. The Blade takes care of thieves, but not Becca. They need her.”
“What for Dev?”
Devin came to land on the ground.
“Becca has mystical powers. They want it.”
“Becca has powers?” Wally asked.
“In a way. She holds a mystic power, ancient and stronger than anything. She is protector of the power. And her body is the casing. Never is she allowed to use it. So, no she herself does not have powers. She just holds them.”
“I'm confused,” Megan admitted.
“It's like the Green Lantern. His ring posses power, but he himself has no true power.”
“Oh!”
“The same for Becca. Only her soul is the ring, occasionally being separated from her body.”
“Where is she now?” Robin asked.
“You have delivered her into the hands of her enemies little bird.”
Red X jumped down from the rafters, looking at the team.
“Who are you?”
“The name is Red X. I am Becca's...employer. And Jade's. Yes. It is true that they lied to you. But not fully. They worked to save you. Those files I asked for are very dear to the Blade. And Becca was in possession of them last. She roubou them back from me.”
“Why does the Blade want those files?”
“They are files concerning they have every new bit of information about every super villain you've fought. They also contain vital information on the Justice League.”
“What will they do with them?”
“Most likely form a team of villains. Strong, powerful, smart villains. And they'll use the JLA files to take down you're League.”
“How do we get Becca back?”
“That I don't know.”
“Listen Red X,” Wally hissed. “Think of a way to get Becca back! She means everything to Robin! Surely you can see how much he loves her. I mean, you're a guy. So you can probably do mais than just see. You probably flirt with her!”
“No, Wally. I don't. Never would I flirt with Becca.”
“Because she's taken.”
“No. Because...”
Red X took off the helmet, revealing indigo blue eyes, freckled cheeks and long red hair.
“...I'm a girl.”
Jade looked away from the inquiring bird, tears in her eyes.

Sneak Peek Part II
Revenge or Redemption
"This Way!" Revenge yelled.
I followed, ducking into a closet. My yellow/black cape swished behind me and exposed where we were.
"Tam! Ogan'!" a voice yelled.
The Russians brought their armas to urso on the wooden door and fired. Revenge leaped in front of me, taking the shock and damage of the bullets. But fifteen AK-47s firing into his chest managed to knock him out.
The Russians busted open the door and knocked me down with a rifle to the head. One pointed his gun at me.
"Ostan'sya vnizu malen'kaya devochka!" he yelled.
I struggled to think, the blow to my head had me in a daze.
"C'mon Barbara! Think! You're in Russia! batman taught you this much."
After a bit of thinking, I managed to translate it into 'Stay down little girl'.
The seguinte time they said something, it was easier to translate.
"Voz'mite ikh s losifom!"
Translation: Take them to Joseph.

Check out The New Adventures of Red Revenge, every Friday in the Red Revenge Club!
Revenge threw the criminal into the mural and heard a satisfying groan of pain.
Nightbird grinned and started to walk out, but Revenge stopped her. He picked something up from one of the criminals before grappling through the roof.
Nightbird opened the doors and yelled at Draxx to come collect his revenue or something before joining Revenge on the roof.
"What is it?" she asked.
Revenge pulled a red-black feather out of his utility cinto, correia and looked at it for a moment before jumping off the building and landing on his motorbike, speeding away.

C'mon. Did you really expect me to end it there? XD
Epilouge:
Slade moved into the room. He bowed before the dark shadow. The voice spoke to him.
“You failed me Slade.”
“I know master. But she is stronger than we first expected.”
“Yes. I know. I expected as much from her. But we now have her in a dangerous position.”
“Master?”
“Shade must make her choice. She has followed the Light for seventy years. Now, she must choose whether she is willing to risk everything or to continue to play hero.”
“And if she chooses hero?”
“She won't.”
“But Master-”
“Shade thinks she is in the clear. But I have one last trick up my sleeve.”

Robin:
i decided to take a quick walk to get Artemis and Wally's yelling out of my head. there where little snowflakes falling and frost gathered on the ground, the harbor had a happy Christmasy feel to it, i walked por a little group of kids and they were singing.
"Dashing through the snow, in a pair of broken skis over the hills we go crashing into trees bam, bam, bam the snow is turning red i think i'm almost dead woke up in the hospital with stitches in my head" the song was odd but the kids were laughing, you just had to smile, but then the kids went on to the segundo verse.
"Jingle bells, batman smells," WAIT WHAT?! my eyes widen
"Robin laid and egg," I glare and stomp up the sidewalk, but the kids are still singing
"The Bat-mobile lost its wheel and Joker flew away HEY, jingle bells, jingle bells.........." i mutter stupid kids
