“I will train my students while you lead your team. When they are trained, I will find the next generation and train them. I will assist you if you need help, but I will stay here otherwise” I said. I never turned around.
“Night, you’re quitting the team?” Robin asked
“Yes” I nodded
“But you never quit. No matter what” he protested
“Exactly. When you faced Superman, did you quit? When your mom was kidnapped, did you quit? When you wanted to attack Kalder, did you quit? No. You kept going, no matter the pain” Wally said
“We need you Night” Robin said
“Without you, we’re not complete” Artemis said
“Master Night, you said yourself you loved mans world. Go back. Maybe we can make a schedule so you can train us, but still be with your family” Leah smiled. A tear dripped from my eye. I hugged her. I checked my watch.
“Everyone inside for the night” I ordered. Everyone walked to the dojo.
‘Harmony? I need you to stay for a moment’ I thought
‘Okay’ she walked back
‘I need some advice. I know how I tried to throw my sai through Kalder’s head, but I think they want me back. I need to train you seven though. What do I do?’ I asked
‘I think you should close your eyes and take a step back. Imagine your life if you stayed at the dojo, then imagine your life if you went with the team, but came here to train us every so often’ Harmony instructed. I nodded and closed my eyes. I imagined my life here as a dojo instructor, then my life at the cave, coming here to train my students occasionally. I opened my eyes again.
“Harmony, how did you get to be so wise?” I smiled
‘I do my best’ she smiled. We walked into the dojo together. I saw everyone standing at the door. They all looked at me and Harmony. I smiled. The only girl from the dojo actually mixing with the team was Ro. She was talking to Robin about tricks to never miss. I pulled down my mask and cleared my throat. They all looked up at me.
“I’ve decided-” my voice squeaked “I’ve decided to stay with the team” I saw Artemis, Megan, Wally and Kalder’s face light up. Robin was too busy talking to Ro to hear me and Connor just nodded.
“I will return every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday to train the next generation. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays, I will stay at the cave” I concluded
“Then we must celebrate!” Bri concluded
“PAR-TAY!” Wally yelled. He set up the room in super speed by moving things out of the middle of the room and putting a stereo and food tables in. I laughed as he turned on the radio and started to dance.
“Night, you’re quitting the team?” Robin asked
“Yes” I nodded
