Chapter 36: It's Been A While (Where Are We Now?)
The beat of the music seemed to resonate in her chest. She was standing in a dark room with random, flashing lights and the smell of alcohol and sweat mingling together as waves of heat rolled off from the crowd of dancing figures. All these factors bombarded her senses, but only added to the atmosphere of the club. Blue eyes flickered around as she tried to soaked it all in. She felt her body swaying of its own accord to the hypnotic pulsing rhythm of the club. Alcohol loosening her muscles and a smile creeping on her face. She loved it in here.
She took another sip of her drink and used her advantage point at the bar to try and find her friends scattered across the room. She was trying to be the responsible one so her friends could finally loosen up and have a goodnight out, but she was never really one to mother hen others. Still she was just glad she had convinced them to come out. They seemed to forget they were actually teenagers even if they saved the world every other week.
Artemis and Wally were being digesting cute on the dance floor. Arms wrapped around the other and either locking lips, touching forehead or gazing into each others eyes. It was cute to see them so in love but not a scene Zatanna needed to watch for too long.
Connor was out on the balcony with the other smokers. In hindsight Zatanna could see that maybe this wasn't the place to bring Connor with his advanced hearing, eyesight and bla bla bla. She could understand why this place wasn't very appealing to him.
Also the fact that Megan was dancing very intimately with a guy she met ten minutes ago. Since their break up it was almost impossible to get them into a room together. At least Connor liked chatting with the smokers who always seemed talkative since he had that whole broody-cool-looking-dude-vibe going for him.
And finally there was their fearless leader Kaldur, who was at the other end of the bar looking the least comfortable out of all of them. He was content to just watch other people for the night while trying to understand the human custom of getting black out drunk. However Zatanna swore sometime tonight she would get him to do some shots and made sure he enjoyed himself as well.
Then there was her. The beautiful, magically gifted Zatanna. Recent addiction to this disfunction team. Having a great time and in her element.
Zatanna was slightly missing Barbara. She liked the team as a whole but they were all so… impenetrable. It was like they all had a linking, unified shield she couldn't get under. Her and Barbara felt the same way so it was good to have a friend who was an outsider to their little group. She liked them all but at times she just felt like a third wheel unless she had Barbara there but no Miss Batgirl just had to get an awesome assignment in Japan and leave her all alone.
The magician was shaken from her sulky mood when a change of song occurred that was more upbeat then the last, making Zatanna decide to focus on the positive. She could call everyone here a friend and she knew they saw her the same way. Artemis didn't mind ditching Wally for a night to hang out with her. Megan always offered her baked goods. Connor and her could spend time in comfortable silence and Kaldur was always checking up on her.
Zatanna eyes flickered over to Kaldur and she decided to indulge herself by admiring those strong swimmer arms of his. But as she indulged his godly arms she realised his eyes were locked onto something in the crowd. Someone? She tried scanning the crowd to see what he was staring at so intently but couldn't see anything in particular. Getting a bit worried about the Atlantean she shifted from her position and moved over to him and tapped him on his shoulder.
Kaldur shifted his gaze to her =when he felt her touch. Upon seeing her confused expression, he tried to smile and shrug it off not wanting to bother her but Zatanna could see he was worried about something.
"What is it?" she said but the music was too loud drowning out her voice.
Kaldur held up his hands trying to indicate to her to leave it but Zatanna didn't want Kaldur feeling alone so sent a quick text to Megan to set up a mind link.
A minute later she felt the others presences in her mind. It was like a small bubble growing inside of her head that rippled when the other's spoke. Zatanna was used to the sensation now but sometimes she wished they used com links, those where less distracting.
"What is it Kaldur?" Megan sounded annoyed. She was moving to the side of the room, away from her touchy dance partner, so she could concentrate.
It was clear Artemis and Wally were linked up too as they had stepped away from each, no longer in their own personal world where they could freely touch one another without feeling awkward.
Superboy had stepped into the doorway so he could see what was going on.
"I think something bad is about to happen" Kaldur said, his eyes refocusing on what he was staring at before.
"You interrupted us because you 'think' something is wrong" Artemis snarked, feeling impatient with this sudden intrusion.
"Shut up Artemis" Zatanna said in defence of Kaldur. With Artemis is was always best to slap her down from her arrogant talk a bit as Artemis didn't mean to sound harsh, she just did.
"What is it Kaldur?" Connor asked to avoid any further bickering. After the breakup with Megan the Atlantean and Kryptonian seemed to have become closer. Each spending more time with the other then they had beforehand. Enjoying each others silent company. Kaldur teaching Connor chess and Connor teaching Kaldur about bikes. Zatanna guessed thats what heart break did, it made unlikely friendships stronger.
Kaldur nodded his head in appreciation to Connor and Zatanna. "There are four suspicious people that have been scanning this area for a while and I believe they just found their target".
This grabbed everyones attention. Aqualad was always good at sussing out a threat so though they didn't want to give up on their free night out it looked like their classic success with luck was running strong again.
"What makes them suspicious?" Artemis no longer sounded annoyed or doubting Kaldur's observation.
"None of them have been drinking, all have been at advantage points since they arrived 15 minutes ago, sticking to the sides while scanning all areas of the club. None engaging with others or any of the activities here."
"Where are they now?" Zatanna asked straining her eyes trying to see who Kaldur was talking about while sipping her vodka and coke cause… come on she had paid for it and she wasn't about to get any less drunk any time soon.
"One by the stairs, one by the toliets, one in the far corner of the dance floor and another in the crowd. All wearing black clothing"
The black clothing didn't really narrow down the options since it was the go to colour for most of the people here but Artemis was able to spot them, assassin training coming in handy right about now.
"Got them, they keep touching their ears so they probably have coms in and…" Artemis shifted to get a better look, "…crap the one on the dance floor has a gun."
Zatanna finally caught sight of the one on the dance floor and true to what Artemis observed he did indeed have a gun. His jacket had shifted up to reveal the weapon in his waistband.
"What should we do?" Megan asked, finally dripping her annoyed expression and focusing on the possible threat, "I can read their minds?"
"Unnecessary" Aqualad shut her down. "I want this sorted in a way that doesn't draw attention to us. The main aim is to find out who they are looking for."
Zatanna tried to scan the crowd to see where the man was heading but turned out the alcohol had made her vision a little blurry. 'Opps…'
"Aqualad ten o'clock," Artemis chimed in again, "brown hair, grey button down. They're all seem to be heading towards him. That's their target." In times like these Zatanna blessed Artemis for her assassin training. The magician wished she could identify possible threats and victims like Aqualad and Artemis could.
It took longer then Zatanna was willing to admit but she finally saw the person Artemis had mentioned. He was medium height and build, dancing freely, head hanging back with a smile on his face. Picture of perfect (ignorance) innocence. Completely unaware of any threat heading his way.
"What do we do?" Connor's deep voice sounded. He was still by the door but looked ready to set off across the room on the drop of the word.
Kaldur's grey eyes looked at all the targets. Assessed. Calculated. Then came up with a plan. "We can't draw attention so we need to remove the threats and get the potential victim out of here." Aqualad thought out loud.
They all nodded in agreement but they weren't sure how to this without being suspicious. The dead silence indicating none of them had any idea of how to get this plan into action. Zatanna rolled her eyes. These guys really missed the obvious sometimes. "Guys we're in a club. Someone just go over and dance with the possible target and then get him outside away from the threats."
There was a sudden tension as all the eyes turned towards the girls. Of course this is when the red-head of the team spoke up. "You're up babe" he said with a hide grin on his face at the idea of his girlfriend 'attempting' to be seductive.
"I'm not seducing him!" Artemis said aloud, forgetting about the mind link and drawing some startled looks around her. The blonde quickly ducked her head determined not to feel embarrassed by her outburst. "Just get Megan to do it. She was already happy to have 'fun' with some else."
Zatanna eyes flicked to Superboy, he was still static in his position but there was a tension rolling off of him that was readable to everyone and sent a couple of smokers shuffling away from him.
"Hey what makes you think I'll do it" Megan asked, not likely what Artemis was implying.
The girls bickered back and forth with Wally throwing in his two cents just to get a rise out of both girls. He was enjoying winding them up far too much. Aqualad rolled his eyes and rested his hand against his forehead. Zatanna felt bad for him. They all knew he just wanted to be left alone tonight but they had dragged him out and now he was having a three way bitch fight in his head as he tried to concentrate.
Zatanna let her eyes fall back to the target. 'He wasn't bad looking' Zatanna thought as she started to get ready to cross the floor towards the target to put an end to the bickering. However she never got the chance as another figure was suddenly dancing with their target.
Now this new figure was someone Zatanna wouldn't mind seducing. A sinfully tight blue t-shirt showed off a killer body with rock hard abs and strong arms. Black, messy hair falling seemingly perfectly in front of his face. Zatanna couldn't help but lick her lips as she watched him dance fluidly with the music with grace and ease. Though Zatanna could quite happily continue watching she couldn't ignore that that the strangers hands where now wrapped around their targets waist as their bodies pressed even closer. Oh. Oh.
"Guys, you're not his type" Zatanna interrupted the bickering. Megan and Artemis's eyes snapped towards Zatanna. They may have been auguring on who was supposed to be seducing the guy but they didn't like Zatanna implying they were undesirable. Zatanna was starting to understand why Aqualad always got headaches. "Look" she said.
They all looked over and saw the target's new dance partner and the pin dropped. Now it was Artemis turn to smirk, "Looks like you're up Wally."
Wally started spluttering but Aqualad interrupted his ramblings, "The windows closed, one of the threats is 10 paces away from the target. We need a distraction and to intercept each threatening figure. Everyone pick the one closest to you. Zatanna and I will go to the possible victim. "
"We might need a distraction" commented Connor.
Now Zatanna had an idea for a distraction, so without asking for permission she got up on a bar stool and shouted, "Free drinks on me!" which was received with many cheers and catcalls.
Zatanna pulled out one of her playing cards from her pocket and whispered "egnahc otni a tiderc drac". The ace of spades she was holding suddenly turned into a black, sleek credit card that she slammed down on the bar behind her with a big smile on her face. Yeah, magic was awesome.
Since now everyone knew she was serious about her offer there was a suddenly movement of people towards the bar ready to collect their free drinks. Aqualad took her hand helping her down from the chair, leading them away from the now busy bar.
"Good thinking." Aqualad thought through the mind link and Zatanna only shrugged trying to hide her pleased smile at the complement. It was a club, people where easy to manipulate in it.
Zatanna scanned the club for the possible victim. She finally saw the grey shirt she was looking for and saw the target being lead out of the back door by the mysterious, hot - could Zatanna empathises how hot he was enough - stranger. She grabbed Aqualad's arm and started to pull him in their direction, weaving in and out of the crowd until they reached the back door too.
At the door Kaldur halted Zatanna so he would be the first to go out. Which was good as as soon as they left the warmth of the club a body was pushed into them. The man slumped into Kaldur who then lowered him to the ground. The man was unconscious and the alleyway was in chaos.
The potential target/victim was cowering beside some garbage bins. Three unknown men, mostly likely backup for the kidnapping, were also there along with an open door van which was parked at the end of the street. But the most surprising thing was the leaping shadow that was darting and making easy work of all the unknown figures while protecting the scared figure.
Aqualad having now observed all this information launched himself into the fight without another seconds hesitation. While Zatanna was still a bit mesmerised by the leaping figure in blue. He seemed to have as much ease and grace in a fight as he did on the dance floor. But she was pulled away from her admiration of the lithe figure when he suddenly ran to the figure in the grey shirt and started to pull him to his feet with the intention of getting him out of the alley.
Zatanna was about to take off after them when she was suddenly hit in the face by one of the thugs. Her head snapped to the side as pain flared through her face. She focused on her attacker and shouted, "llaf nwod won" sending him with a satisfying smack to the floor.
Knowing Kaldur had the rest of the thugs sorted she took off after the two figures running away. But as she exited the alley onto the street she saw both figures on a motorbike. The one up front was about to put his helmet on, the one with the blue shirt.
The mysterious figure paused in his action and had the nerve to send her a wink before putting his helmet on and speeding away. Some part of Zatanna's mind knew she should stop his bike or follow him or put a tracking spell on him but she was too slow to do anything. She was out of breath, her head was thumping with the pain from the punch and - even though she would leave this part out later - she was sort of hypnotised by a pair of mysterious clear blue eyes she had just seen.
The team's attempt at being discrete had completely failed with the club shutting down early and the police now taking eight tight lipped thugs away. However, all in all, this was one of their smoother missions considering they were all varying degrees of drunk. Which was highlighted when Wally said maybe they should always do shots before each mission. This lead to Artemis whacking him on the head.
With nothing else being able to be done tonight they all decided to head back to the mountain. All left with questions of what had actually occurred tonight and who was the mysterious figure in blue? And why was someone nearly kidnapped?
Connor poured his second cup of coffee after immediately downing his first. He knew it was a weird hour to drink coffee but he liked the taste and caffeine never effected him anyway. He was about to walk to his room when he bumped into Megan.
"Oh" she exhaled while he fumbled making sure no coffee spilled. Once they had both righted themselves a heavy silence fell.
Superboy always held himself with confidence or with an attitude of 'I-don't-care'. He had to otherwise people would try and walk all over him. He would get hurt too much if he didn't with everyones disapproving stares or thinking he was freak for being a clone or a threat that needed to be locked away. He couldn't let people try and manipulate him after everything he went through with Luther. He tried to keep the world as black and white as possible. There were people he wanted to punch and he people he wanted to protect.
But when standing here with Megan, the girl that broke his heart, messed with his mind and betrayed his trust suddenly the world wasn't so black and white as he wanted it to be.
On one hand he just wanted to kiss her and hold her. Go back to simpler times when Megan would openly be sweet and kind with him and he could feel like he could trust her with everything. But then he would remember, that girl he loves wasn't here anymore. The sweet girl that blushed so easily when he looked her way. Instead she had turned into someone he couldn't trust, someone who didn't think what they were doing was wrong.
Connor remembered Megan's first victim, a drug dealer who had information they needed. A bad guy that had done bad things. But Megan had ripped that information out of his head and left him a drooling mess on the floor that couldn't form a single sentence. Connor covered it up thinking Megan had just made a mistake. He thought it was a one off mistake.
It happened two more times. Each time Megan never even said she was sorry. They had several arguments about it and with each fight it drove them further and further away from each other. Connor thought him breaking up with her would help her realise what she had done was wrong. How serious it was that she was abusing her power. He thought she would try and fight for him. Instead she just tried to whip his memories. A full two weeks of blissfulness before Connor discovered what happened and they could never go back.
He kept it all a secret from the team, with the exception of Kaldur who he vaguely hinted to about not letting Megan use her power unnecessarily, but that was it. He still loved her, he just couldn't be with her. He could barely be around her.
Megan looked at the coffee in his hands, oblivious to his inner conflict he always had when she was around. "You shouldn't drink that. You'll stay up all night."
His eyes suddenly burned into hers, his jaw clenched and cup close to shattering, but he made no move to reply.
"Connor…" she started to say but he brushed past her intent on just going to his room. When he got to his room he watched his coffee go cold as he stayed seated on his bed, letting his mind go blank.
Zatanna was ready to go to sleep now. Eyes falling shut after reading a 'fascinating' book about the history and secrets of magical moss. She placed the book on her bedside table and reached up to switch her light off when her eyes landed on a picture frame.
It sat so innocently there. It showed the picture of a smiling young Zatanna with her two proud parents. The magician smiled a sad smile at it. As she switched of the light she kept her eyes on the picture as she settled down into her bed, resting her head on her numerous pillows.
She accounted the water building up in her eyes to tiredness and not to loneliness of having no parents, the frustration of not being able to save her father, the sadness of losing all of her family. She turned over in her bed and buried her head into her pillow, now eager for the peacefulness sleep brought with it.
"So you're saying I couldn't have seduced him" Artemis said from the bathroom.
Wally was sprawled out across the bed in only his boxes wondering why they hell they were back at this argument. "You said you didn't want to seduce him!" he exclaimed exasperated. There was no winning with this fiend.
Artemis exited from the bathroom, still running a hair brush through her thick hair. "I said I didn't want to, you're the only how said I couldn't".
"What does it even matter?" Wally huffed sitting back up to look at the blonde, "You have me."
Artemis rolled her eyes, "Yeah, an idiot that I call boyfriend."
Wally sprung up from his position and grabbed her by the waist. Pulling her down so she was sitting on the bed with him. He placed a kiss on the side of her head, "A boyfriend you seduced" he teased.
Artemis rolled her eyes but it was slightly counteracted by the small smile on her face. "That was my first mistake" she replied lightly.
"Not your last though" Wally said as he nuzzled into her thick mane of hair and Artemis couldn't resist any more and kissed him. When they broke apart Wally let out his trade mark grin, "Love you" he said while exaggerating each syllable.
"You're still an idiot."
"Still your idiot" he replied.
Kaldur was thankful when he finally closed his bedroom door and he was left in silence. He leaned back against the door and let out a sigh. The adrenaline from the night now making him feel shaky. He was glad to finally be left alone in his room, a place of security that calmed his exposed nerves.
However now that there wasn't any loud noises, distractions or people surround him he realised his ears were ringing form the loud music in the club and he felt dehydrated from the alcohol he had drunk. He made his way to his bathroom, stripping out of his clothes as he turned his shower on to its coldest setting.
He stepped in and immediately felt his muscles relax. Too bad his mind did not follow. Now left alone with only falling water as a distraction, Tula's face kept on appearing in his mind, her voice a distant sound he could hear from past memories.
He bowed his head and tried to ignore the single tear that strayed away. He tried to just focus on the pounding water hitting his skin and smoothing over his gills.
Once his skin felt suitably softer he escaped from the bathroom and threw on a pair of tracksuit bottoms and collapsed on his bed. He fidgeted for a while trying to find a comfy position but when he realised that wasn't going to happen he forced himself still. He stayed like that for an hour but sleep never came. He committed for another half an hour before giving up. His mind wouldn't let him rest when the memory of Tula kept on plaguing him. The memory of Tula's… he stopped himself thinking about it and decided he needed to do something.
So he settled himself at his desk and turned his mind to problems he could solve. Like finding the answers to the questions the evening had proposed.
The next day, everyone came out of their rooms with varying degrees of success. None really communicating to each other yet as they grabbed their morning drinks and foods. All begrudgingly used to being up this early in the morning in the hope of getting food before Wally woke up.
They all sat and slumped on different furniture with the exception of Kaldur and Wally who hadn't appeared yet.
Once Zatanna finished her cereal she felt a bit better and decided to break the silence, "So who was tall, dark and handsome last night?"
Everyone threw her a look, "Who? The guy in the grey shirt?" Megan asked.
Zatanna shook her head, "No… I mean yeah who was that guy too but who was the other one. The one in blue?" She waited for someone to respond but nothing came her way. Zatanna wasn't really expecting an answer but she thought it would at least stimulate a conversation. Apparently not if the awkward silence indicated anything.
It was times like these Zatanna couldn't help but think she was missing something. As if everyone else was excepting someone else to speak and break the silent spell the others often fell under. What she didn't now it was at times like when everyone else felt the phantom presence of their old friend.
Artemis not liking that obvious absence, even after all these years spoke up, "Well, what do we know?" Over the years Artemis had stepped up to try and lead the conversations a bit more, try and think of logical questions that would help the others and more importantly help Kaldur to gather the facts and come up with a plan of action.
"Well, he was trained" Zatanna said, "It seemed like he didn't need us there at all. He was a good fighter from the brief display I saw".
"That means he could handle himself in a fight not necessarily trained" Artemis added her own thoughts on the matter.
Zatanna shook her head. "No way do you get that good on natural talent alone. Plus it makes sense if he was trained that was how he saw the same signs as us and realised the guy in grey was in danger."
Artemis nodded taking this in consideration, but no one had seen him beforehand so they couldn't know for certain.
"How do we know he was even a 'good' guy" Connor asked, that caught everyones attention, "We don't know who he was, why he was there, who the other guy was or why he took off instead of waiting for the police."
Zatanna hadn't thought about that. That the gorgeous man in blue with the matching blue eyes might have been a 'bad' guy instead of a rescuer to the potential kidnapping victim. But somehow that didn't sit right with Zatanna. "I think he was honesty trying to help and protect that guy."
"Well, thats a convincing argument" Megan said and Zatanna wondered what crawled up her ass this morning but decided to ignore her and continue on.
"And" Zatanna empathised, showing she wasn't done talking, "the other guy seemed to trust him. He had plenty of chances to run but he didn't. He even put on a helmet and got on a bike. So either he knew him or he trusted him instinctively."
Megan and Zatanna glared at each other but Artemis butted in before anything could happen. "So, we have a supposedly good guy with dark hair, lean build, who can spot indicators for dangerous situations and can identify threatening people. Can handle himself in a fight and can ride a motor bike. Also either knew the potential victim or didn't but either way has a hero complex" she summed up.
"So all we know is that someone helped someone else. Great" Megan started and Artemis sighed realising it was going to be one of those days with Megan.
"Wait he was on a bike?" Connor asked again, ignoring the growing argument and directing his question to Zatanna.
"Yes," she replied not understanding what Connor was thinking.
"Then we might be able to track the bike and find out where it came from or went."
"That is what I did last night" a new voice was suddenly added to the group. Aqualad entered into the room and he looked tired. His eyes red from a night of staring at a computer screen. He sat on the couch as Zatanna whispered under her breath "puc of eeffoc ni sin sdnah" and a cup of steaming coffee appeared in his hands. He nodded his head in gratitude and took a sip, savouring the bitter taste on his tongue.
He drank almost half the cup before he begun again, "The bike has no registration or known number plate and the helmets obscured the faces of the riders too much be able to try facial recognition software however I do know where the bike was heading." He paused taking another sip of his coffee and rubbed his tired eyes. He would definitely be sleeping after this.
He was unaware that his pause had carried on for so long before he was interrupted by a cough. He looked up and realised that the sound came from Artemis, impatient for him to continue.
"He was heading to Bludhaven".
There was pause until Megan said, "Thats it?" Aqualad nodded. "Really thats all you got after a night of searching?"
Kaldur was very tempted to snap at Megan right now. He was feeling fragile and tired and in desperate need of a swim as his skin felt like it has pulled tightly over his bones. But instead he counted silently to three in his head and exhaled, a trick Connor had taught him
"I was lucky to get that. He avoided most cameras and I was lucky half the time to catch him when I did."
Megan slumped in her chair a little, "Still doesn't tell us anything."
"Actually I think it does." All eyes snapped to Artemis but she held up her finger and suddenly yelled, "WALLY!"
They all flinched away from the loud yell, but it was soon followed by an echoing yell of, "WHAT?" along with some bumps and curses. Eventually the hallway revealed a disgruntled red head, hair sticking up all over the place and hastily thrown on clothes, "What?" he said again, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"You were saying something about a new vigilante in Bludhaven recently, remember?" This caught the teams attention.
"Ummm… yeah why is that important?" Wally asked, leaning his hands on the back of the couch Artemis was on.
"What do you know about them?" Artemis pushed on ignoring Wally's question.
Wally rolled his eyes. "Not much, there hasn't been any pictures of him, half the police force don't think he's real, never takes any credit, only proof he's real is a few victims who claim were rescued by him."
Aqualad leaned forward. This was an interesting lead. "Anything else?" he promoted.
Wally scrunched his brow trying to rack up anything else that had been reported. Then he vaguely remembered something "Yeah he's called… The Winged Knight."
Sorry Dick you're superhero name isn't that well known yet;)
