Wally opened his eyes staring up at Robin, Zatanna and Bats. He bolted up, but groaned when a hurtful pain struck him. He lay back down.
"Careful there buddy. Take it nice and easy" Robin said.
"It was awful...mask, girl.." Wally's voice weakened. Bats walked to the computer.
"Mask, mask, I've heard of it before. If I just-" he typed in Mask Maker. "Of course!" he moved the screen for Wally so he could see. "Is this the guy?" the screen showed a white mask, under a hoodie, dark blue perhaps.
"Yeah that's the guy! How did ya know?" he sat up on he side of the bed.
"It's been on he news but it wasn't announced that much since he had a break for 6months then started attacking again." he showed a slide show of girls in their early 20's.
"Are those the girls he murdered?" Zatanna asked frighted.
"Yes. He murdered three girls. All three were washed up on Gotham beach and all had white plastered masks molded on their faces. This villain only drugged them and molded masks on their faces nothing else. No sexual assaults. This guys really smart. He knows what to do and after cover his trail."
"He'll slip up. They always do" Wally punched his hand into his palm.
"Since he's so familiar to you Wally I'm putting you and Artemis in the case." Artemis just walked in the room.
"On the mask makers case? Have you heard! He's real pro! And Wally got shot! If the guy was stupid then Wally could of dodged the bullet!" Bruce grumbled.
"Stake of women here" he pushed them both to the zeta tubes.
"Don't worry Arty, we'll catch him" Wally winked at her. They disappeared teleporting to the crime scene.
"Isn't this like a detective thing?" Robin asked Bruce as he walked past to the computer.
"Yes so I'm trusting you and Zatanna to get information about this crime. The police couldn't keep up with the info and it was sickening for them so they left it for us to solve." Bruce handed them each a laptop. "Get solving" Zatanna was so excited she snatched the devise off Bruce and typed in "Mask maker" Robin watch then did his own thing typing "Mask Maker victims" Bruce disappeared into the zeta tube leaving the sidekicks to explore the case.
The girl's body lay on he sand, lifeless. Yellow tape surrounded her, police going here and there.
"Oh my god!" Artemis stepped inside the tapped area her eyes widen.
"Why is he doing this?" KF frowned. A female police approached them.
"We were expecting Batman or Robin." she had an annoyed look on her face.
"Well I was at the crime scene, I have multiple stitches on my chest to prove it!" Wally placed his hand on his chest. The female police said nothing but stared at him.
"Okay... So do you know this girl?" Wally broke up he silence.
"Oh yes! Her name is Sophie Mills from Gotham university. We couldn't get the mask off and believe me, our officers can't take it off. It's stuck!"
"Any prints or DNA from the villain?" Artemis asked.
"No. He covered his trail." Wally closely studied the victim.
"Somethings wrong here. This girls arm has been dislocated not like the others. They weren't attacked. A sign of struggle I guess?"
"Yes. She tried to fight back but the man injected the syringe in before she could get away." the woman said.
"What about the cause of death?" Artemis asked.
"Well shes wet so drowning maybe?" the woman suggested.
"No she died at the scene when the mask was molded on. She couldn't breath." Wally said. A teenager with a green top covered over by a black leather jacket approaches them.
"Exactly the same as the first 2 victims" Wally looked up to see Robin.
"Hey buddy!" he high five him.
"He drugged them, applied the mask and let them suffocate to death" Robin explained. Artemis widen her eyes.
"Hey look!" she pointed at Sophie's left arm.
"Its a Chinese zodiac stamp! From the Chinese restaurant near Gotham academy!" Robin exclaimed.
"I guess we have a lead!" Wally said. Wally piggybacked Artemis to the restaurant. She grumbled but was convinced to be piggybacked. Robin watched them run away then went back to studying the girl.
"Careful there buddy. Take it nice and easy" Robin said.
"It was awful...mask, girl.." Wally's voice weakened. Bats walked to the computer.

"No, no, no, no!" Revenge said, wiping up the blood with his gloves. There was too much
on the floor. Too much had been lost. The sword that had done the damage was laying
over to the side. Revenge tried to pick it up, but his strength had left him. It clattered
to the floor beside him as he sank to his knees, the unbearable pain filling his
body and mind.

Robin:
i decided to take a quick walk to get Artemis and Wally's yelling out of my head. there where little snowflakes falling and frost gathered on the ground, the harbor had a happy Christmasy feel to it, i walked by a little group of kids and they were singing.
"Dashing through the snow, in a pair of broken skis over the hills we go crashing into trees bam, bam, bam the snow is turning red i think i'm almost dead woke up in the hospital with stitches in my head" the song was odd but the kids were laughing, you just had to smile, but then the kids went on to the second verse.
"Jingle bells, Batman smells," WAIT WHAT?! my eyes widen
"Robin laid and egg," I glare and stomp up the sidewalk, but the kids are still singing
"The Bat-mobile lost its wheel and Joker flew away HEY, jingle bells, jingle bells.........." i mutter stupid kids

Yes, that's right, I'm back! And with a special sneak-peek to this Friday's chapter of Heart of Courage!

Red Revenge stepped out of the transporter to find Artemis waiting for him in full costume.
"Didn't take Boy Wonder long to figure out where I live, did it?" he asked, walking past her.
Artemis glared at him, but ran up beside him.
"Let me guess, you want to talk about why I act like a jerk." Revenge said, still not looking at the archer.
"Actually, I thought we could go out for ice-cream." Artemis said.
Duh, duh duh!
