The escrim sticks twirled in her hands and Wally noticed it as a nervous habit. They were spinning almost faster than he could follow. His eyes followed them round and round. He was starting to get dizzy and pulled his gaze to her face. She was biting her lip as she searched for an answer. But she suddenly slammed the weapons to the ground; thank goodness they were shatter proof.
“Where did they take him?!”
Wally felt uneasy. He was alone with Robin's girlfriend who was, at the moment, pretty pissed about her boyfriend's disappearance. They had been hunting for weeks, Becca continuing when Batman insisted they take on another mission. Becca had explained that Batman showed his love for Robin in odd ways because Batman himself had been similarly raised like Robin. But Becca still refused to let any other things get in the way of her search. It was going to be no easy task to keep her calm and controlled. At least not with how fast his mouth ran. But he didn't have to answer because an unexpected friend arrived.
“Rebecca calm down. I miss him too.”
Becca turned her head to the voice. A blue eyed, black haired beauty stood before them. Her outfit was plain, simple; jeans, a red shirt, black boots, and a choker that adorned a red diamond. Very bright blue eyes, almost as bright as Robin's, stared at them. White wings were folded on her back.
“Devin? Where'd you come from?”
“Where else Wally?”
“Umm Heaven?”
She nodded.
“Devin. I'm glad to see you.”
“Same to you Becca.”
“Two questions. How do you two know each other?”
“I'm the one Devin had to keep saving when Robin was safe,” Becca answered. “Second?”
“What are you doing here?”
“I'm here Wally to help you find my brother. There isn't much time to waste and the power spell of protection on Robin's hand will not last long.”
“So you know where he is?” Becca asked.
“Yes. Now Wally contact the others and follow me. Becca, hop on my back.”
Becca did as instructed and held on tightly as Devin flew off the building. Wally raced down the side and onto the street, his eyes locked on Devin's direction but in such a way that he wasn't going to hit something.
Yo! You guys, we know where Robin is!
Where? Megan asked.
I don't know.
Wally are you stupid?
Shut up Artemis. I don't know persay...but-well let's say a little angel is guiding us to it.
Wally, that makes no sense. You must be stupider than you look.
Ignore that! Tell us what you mean.
Sure thing beautiful.
Wally!
Sorry Becca. Going to the point. Devin's back and she's leading us right to him!
Devin's back?!
Wally smiled at the eagerness and joy in Megan's “voice”; she would be happy to have an angel to talk to. Angels were all about privacy and Megan had said something about personal information she wanted to ask Devin about.
Find Devin's signal thingy and come quickly!
You really are stupid Wally.
Artemis!
“Here we are.”
Devin landed at a very busy building; it looked like a restraunt of some sort.
“Hiding in plain sight,” Becca mumbled.
She looked down at herself.
“This is a fancy place and we aren't ready to attend. So, Wally, what do you say we freshen up?”
“Where did they take him?!”

Eclipses POV
I knew it, I knew it would happen but why like this? I knew they would find me but to go that far just to get me back, back to being what I was…Man-Made, back to having someone’s signature carved into my body forever. I told them I was natural, 100% mutant. But I lied about every word about my past and I lied to such good people now worse has come to worst, my friends are dead or so I thought and the biggest secret I could ever hold burst out like some one who had jus pulled the trigger on a gun then they had to sit and watch as the man who made me finished his greatest master piece...Me! But of corse, one of my souls biggest wish came true, Alice became me and I became Alice but after all that Eclipse, I had to pay the price which could only be paid……in blood but in the end no one wins.

Prologue-
White Star Lines, Southampton, England
06:47 BST, December 15, 1911
“Hey Jim!” I called out.
“Good Morning Miss Orname!” the worker called back.
I grinned widely and continued my walk through the construction yard. Up ahead was the crown jewel White Star Lines had been working on: the Titanic. Unsinkable, the largest ship ever, and it was going to bring a lot of money to my dad and he could retire and move back to Scotland.
My name is Tiana Orname and this is one heck of a story of my life.

All I could think about was the past. Staring at my brothers body, it made it harder to forget. Fang making fart jokes at the school through our cages trying to make me laugh. Me jumping on the bed trying to wake Fang up, laughing when I "accidentally" kicked him where it counts, him shoving me off the bed and onto the floor I stood there the past drowning out the battle in the background. I felt hands on my shoulders, followed by shaking.
"Nudge? Nudge c'mon! We've gotta go this place is gonna blow!" I didn't budge. Still lost in sea of emotions I choked down a sob as tears filled my eyes.
Yeah, yeah. I know it's short
