Redemption Prologue
"Have you retrieved everyone that I asked for Kuro Tenshi" asked a masked man as he sat down.
"Yes, everyone will be arriving soon" replied Kuro as he stepped out of the shadows. Kuro looked pleased with himself for not having masquerade reprimand him for failing yet another mission.
"Check on our prisoner and see how she's doing" ordered Masquerade, Kuro only nodded back into the shadows to check on Mauve. As he reached the dungeon-like rooms on the lower floor of the building, Kuro noticed the light scratching of a rat's claws. He reached his arm up and shot something out of his palm, smirking as the now frozen rat hit the ground and shattered. He continued on his way until he reached a room marked with a capital M on the door.
"So how's our little pet today" sneered Kuro, as he put a cold hand under the fourteen year old's chin, yanking her head up so she was looking straight at him.
"What do you want ice demon" said Mauve defiantly as she was forced to look into the cold, lifeless silver eyes of the boy. The boy tsked before letting go of Mauve's chin, smirking at the young girl's defiance.
"Nothing for now little girl" was Kuro's snide reply
Meanwhile at Mt. Justice
"Scar! Cole's scaring Kitty again!" shouted Blade from the living room. Scarlet, who was currently in her room reading got up and headed to where said conflict was taking place only to get tackled by all three.
"Aahh! What the; what was that for" questioned the red haired, fire-caster as she hit the floor. Everyone who heard the noise was now standing in the living room watch the four team members.
"What are you guys doing" asked Lucas as he looked down at the pile of the two girls and their pets. Scarlet looked up and blushed as she saw that everyone was staring at Blade, her and their two pets.
"What are you all staring at haven't you ever seen someone get tackled by her friend before" asked Scarlet as she pushed herself up into a sitting position.
"Guys dinner's ready" shouted Megan from the kitchen as Infinity helped Scarlet up. Everyone headed to the kitchen area where Megan and Zattana were setting plates for everyone.
"Man I'm starving" said Wally before he got elbowed by Willow telling him that he was always hungry. After dinner everyone went either to their rooms or the living room. There was silence before someone said something.
"Recognized Robin B-01" said the zeta tube as Robin stepped into the cave.
"Does anyone find it strange that it's been so quiet lately" said Robin pensively. Willow and Becca nodded as the rest of the group looked puzzled.
"Not saying that isn't weird but shouldn't we enjoy the peace and quiet once in a while" added Phoebe nonchalantly as some of the others wandered into the room.
"I'm a little worried though I mean ever since Aero's last attack it's been a little too quiet" Mercy added quivering at the thought of their last encounter. Infinity suggested that everyone call it a night and that we could all use some rest after being so stressed. With that everyone wen their separate ways for the night.

Scarlet tossed and turned in her bed before sitting up suddenly. She was covered in a cold sweat after seeing the horrible memories of her past and the foreboding feeling of the future. "I have to t-tell.....someone about this" stuttered Scarlet uneasily

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.

Dozens of reporters swarmed around the billionaire from New York, but he calmly walked past them all and into the limousine. A bodyguard turned around.
"Mr. Grant has no statement to make." he said in a heavy accent, and got into the car with the billionaire before it drove off.
"Target moving north."
"Nightwing?"
"What?"
"Did you hear that?"
"Yeah. I told you the target was moving north."
"It sounded like a girl said it."
"Do I sound like a girl to you?"
"No."
"Then keep an eye on the target, Batgirl. Nightwing out."

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?"
"Ladies first." Revenge said.
"Scared?" Batgirl asked.
"Funny." Revenge said. "I'll take point."
Barbara cut him off. "I'LL take point." she said.

"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."

"It means," she whispered, centimeters from him, "that I want a real kiss."
A little head stron,
I was bitter,
I always wondered what was wrong with me,
Chorus:
It will always be like this forever.
Forever and ever with-a no lover,
I guess we could say i just wasnt made to love!
Forever an' ever,
I just wasnt made to love!
(end of chorus)
I never fell in love,
Just crushes along the years,
I aint scared of much,
But i gues love is something i'm scared of,I fear!
Everybodys asked if i've ever been in love,
Buts love just wasnt meant for me.
Can't you tell,
WHy dont you see?
Chorus
Everbody tells me i'm lying,
Bu I know the truth,
I dont need no slueth to tell me,
Why doesnt anyone believe?
Chorus
Love want meant for me!
