Nicole ducked as a laser beamed zoomed past her.
"Training simulation over." The computers voice echoed the empty cave. Nicole got up and dusted herself off.
"You failed, again." Batman pulled his cowl up and rubbed his nose.
"How?!?!?!" Nicole looked around for a blue speck indicated she had been hit. Bruce picked up a piece of her white hair and showed it to her. "Here" He dropped her hair.
"You're joking right!" Nicole threw her arms out.
"If that was a desecration beam, you'd be dead." Bruce frowned.
"Bruce, there's a fine line between crazy and super crazy and right now you're flirting with it." Nicole heard Robin snicker in the background.
“Head up and take a shower and get dressed. We’re going to a charity ball tonight.” Bruce patted Nicole’s shoulder before leaving the cave. “Oh, and don’t forget to wear a dress.” Bruce said before the doors closed.
Nicole walked down the steps in Wayne Manor leading into area leading outside, and smiled when she saw her uncle and cousin.
“Don’t get used to this, I hate dresses.” Nicole twisted her hips letting her purple dress spin around her, and her black curled hair bounce around her head.
“Welcome to Gotham’s Charity Ball!” Bruce spoke into the microphone as everyone clapped. Dick pulled at his tie, while Nicole tugged on her dress.
“Who’s it going be tonight Nicole? Penguin, Ra’, Joker? Someone’s always here.” He looked around for signs of danger.
“$ 10.00 on Joker and Harley,” Nicole smiled.
” Nahh, I bet its penguin.” Dick pointed to someone holding an umbrella. Both teens turned their heads when a explosion broke the door of its hinges.
“Welcome, to the Jokers’ annual funhouse!!” He spread his arms out wide. “and we’ll start by taking a few things! Harley be a dear and collect the items.” Harley nodded then walked around taking wallets, watches, and earrings.
“Here ya go Mr. J!” Harley smiled as she handed him the bag. Dick and Nicole looked over at Bruce, he nodded once singaling them to change. Both teens emerged into the shadows and ran for a broom closet. Nicole was out first and sped around the room, tapping on the Jokers shoulder, making him look then hiding. Dick emerged second, then Bruce third. Nicole tapped on Joker's shoulder and disappeared again. He turned and looked at Harley.
"Harley! I told you to stop messing around!" Joker yelled at her.
"But Mr. J! I didn't do nothing!" She shrugged her shoulders.
"Those lousey bats must be here." Joker frowned and turned towards the exit.
"Not so fast Joker." Batman stood infront of the clown.
"Ah Bats! So nice to see an old friend!" Joker reached behind his back.
"I'm not your friend Joker." Batman didn't budge.
"Oh really? Harley! Time to blow this popsicle stand!" Joker pulled a fuse out of his back pocket. Harley ran towards the window and jumped grabbing a helicopter, with Joker behind her.
"So long batbrains!!" Joker clicked a button and the building exploded, sending all three heroes into unconsiousness.

Revenge watched. The Shadow placed something in the drawer and began to close it.
Revenge jumped down and kicked him in the face. The shadow fell to the ground. Revenge pinned him before opening the drawer. The body was disintegrated, an acid ate through the flesh, muscles, bones, everything. Revenge collected a sample before he saw the grenade.
It was a timed grenade. And the timer indicated ten seconds before detonation.
"Shit!"

"I don't wanna die!" the boy howled, digging his face into Revenge's knee.
"You have no say in the matter."
"I do." Revenge growled.
The assassin turned his head slightly before tossing a knife in Revenge's direction. It caught him in the chink in his armor. Literally. Revenge glared at the blood seeping from the wound. The black clad assassin continued his approach. Revenge punched him in the throat, crushing his windpipe, causing the man to stumble backwards.
"You wanna play with knives?" Revenge yelled. "Two can play at that game!"
For a second, the assassin couldn't breathe. Then, he stood up, rubbing his neck.
"No way." Revenge muttered, stepping back.
"Red Revenge. For interfering with the mission, you too shall feel the talons of the Court of Owls!"
Night of the Owls.
Coming Soon.

For a moment, Revenge was pressed against her in the narrow hallway in complete darkness. Then, there was a light, from Revenge's mask, and the hallway was lit in a dim red light.
"Ladies first." Revenge said.
"Scared?" Batgirl asked.
"Funny." Revenge said. "I'll take point."
Barbara cut him off. "I'LL take point." she said.
"I've got the light." Revenge said. "And the armor, and the brains."
"Har har, funny."
"Indeed. Watch my back."
"From the scary dark?" Batgirl asked in a mocking voice.
Revenge turned and tossed a dagger into the darkness behind them. It went farther than the three feet of the iron door through which they had entered.
"Any more smart remarks?"

Prologue to Chapter Nine- "The Beginning of More Troubles"
"Delta Squad, check in."
"Artemis, in position."
"Beast Boy in position."
"Batgirl, in position."
"Wondergirl, in position."
"Kid Flash wishing he was at the buffet."
"Good. Maintain your positions. The show is about to start. Nightwing out."
"See? This transmission was picked up by security officials at the olympic celebration." G. Gordon Godfrey stepped in front of the image of the celebration in Rio De Janeiro. "Its obvious that this Nightwing was planning something. On top of that, Kid Flash admits that he would rather be eating than watching over some of the richest and most powerful men in the world!" Let's watch what else happened that day. See if you can find a connection with the heroes, and the murder."
