I didn't think that I'd be posting the sequel to Songbird's Cry so soon. In fact, I didn't even think that I would be writing so soon. But the temptation to write about Alexis' whereabouts got to me. I hope you like it :)

Nightwing's Pov

I sat on top of a gargoyle on the cities public library. There was bound to be some type of crime going on being New Years Day, but it was a good start to the new year. The air in the city was a happy and festive one. I looked down at the tiny string of gold in my right hand. I followed the string to the shining bird dangling from it. A frown formed on my face and old memories flashed through my mind.

I gripped the ledge of the balcony tightly. I looked around me, searching for Alexis. What just happened? Alexis didn't stop the connection, did she? I shook my head; of course she wouldn't. Then what happened? The realization dawned to me. Savage. He took her for her... My eyes widened. I sprinted to the Bat Cave as fast as I could. My fingers flew over the control panel. What I saw on the screen made my heart fall.

Cannot Be Found

Earlier, her locator chip only told us her vitals and her location was 'unavailable'. Now it was gone. Savage was experimenting on her. He was changing her, hurting her. I slammed my fist down on the control panel. How was I going to find her now? They were going to change her looks, her name, her birthday, her memories, but not her personality. I growled. Bitter sweet, huh? The only thing that can help me find her is her personality. Kind, caring, and protective, and always tries to look on the good side of things. She can also be very dense at times and tries her best to make anyone smile.

I felt a small smile growing on my face. Six billion people on Earth, with some aliens, meta-humans and some other super powered people. This was just like the time she made me build twelve-feet snowmen. A crazy challenge for a sweet reward. This time though, the reward is a lot sweeter.

That happened five years ago, and I still couldn't find her. A lot has changed since then. Wally and Artemis are in college now and live together happily. Aqualad left the team after we failed to save Tula, and he found out Blank Manta was his father. Rocket and Zatanna are now full League members. Connor and M'gann broke up a few years back. Red Arrow's been searching for the real Roy Harper. Karie's in college, and her parents are living together again. We have new members on our team. Batgirl, Bumblebee, Blue Beetle, Beast Boy, Lagoon Boy, Mal Duncan, Wonder Girl and a new Robin. I became Nightwing. Moved out to Blüdhaven and became the cities new hero. I'm also the leader of the team now. There's one thing that hasn't changed though.

I'm still trying to build twelve-feet snowmen, but can't seem to make them. I hope I can though, cause I still want that reward. A lot.


Anyone get the metaphor in the last sentence? Really short, but I have the next two-three chapters planned out already. Just need to get it typed.

Review, alert or fav!
