Proven part III
The silence was a thick presence in the air, one that was suffocating me. Nic broke it.
"Where have you been?" he asked.
"Around," I said, "I've been trying to keep low since Cadmus."
"Did you get the Weapon?" Alek asked eagerly, "Do you have it with you know?" He looked at my backpack as if he actually expected I was lugging it around. I thought over my words carefully before answering.
"The Weapon is in a secure location," I said. Not a lie, just not the full truth.
"A secure location?" Jasper repeated. I nodded, then noticed the flashing screen of the laptop out of the corner...

“Now how'd you snag that?” Willow asked, looking at her sister.
Willow had gone to her room after arriving several hours before but had heard the others go out minutes ago. Becca was sitting on the couch, a bowl of chocolate ice cream in her hands.
“Robin,” Becca said simply, patting the seat next to her.
Willow shook her head.
“I need to eat something.”
“There's ice cream in the freezer,” Becca called.
Willow opened it, looking through the appliance.
“I don't see it,” Willow called back.
“Really?”
Becca came over, looking over her sister's shoulder.
“Hmm. Don't worry. I'll...

Becca hit the wall hard, her head hurting. She felt his lips against hers, a hand trailing down her thigh. Just like yesterday, Becca had been ordered to dress in a too revealing skin-tight dress. But this one was a dark purple, so dark it was almost black. And she wasn't allowed to wear her boots. She moved to push him away, but Salva pinned her hands down with one hand.

You can't let him die.
Tears flooded her eyes...

“No way! Cassie was lying!”
Artemis growled in anger. She had been scanning the security cameras (she'd seen Robin hack them a few dozen times) and was disturbed by what she saw. And now that she thought about it, Cassie had been attempting to get the Superboy's attention. And Artemis was mad!
“I can't believe this! Becca, you've got good senses.”
Artemis walked down the halls, trying to find the others. She eventually found them sitting in the living room. The guys were listening to Cassie talk while Megan baked in the kitchen. Becca sat at the counter, silently fuming. Artemis joined...

I sat in my spot on the bio ship and relaxed. My arm felt numb from pain and I was super tired. I closed my eyes, only wanting to sleep for five minutes. I opened my eyes at 3:00 in the after noon. I had slept for two hours. I looked out the window and saw Mount Justice quickly approaching in the distance. I looked at my arm. Megan’s cape was now reddish purple instead of blue. I pulled it off and looked at the wound. I was lucky. The javelin didn’t go all the way through and it was off center. If it was centered and went all the way through, I would have a broken arm and a huge gash. I...
