I opened my door to find Robin standing there. He didn’t see me, so I decided to stay unseen. It looked like he was muttering to himself.
“Okay, I can do this. I just have to swallow my pride and ask her to teach me sword fighting” Robin muttered to himself. I smiled.
“I’ll teach you if you think you can handle it” I smiled, letting myself be seen. Robin’s head snapped up, and I saw his whole face turn red. I grabbed my spare katana and tossed it to him then started walking towards the mission room.
“I hope you’re a size five in armor, ‘cause that’s all I got” I said. When we got to the mission room, I opened a secret closet in the wall and grabbed my armor. I walked over to Robin and placed it on the floor.
“Suit up” I said, gesturing to the armor.
“Aren’t you going to put armor on?” he asked
“Don’t need it. I’ve been training since I was five. I’ve been in an advanced class since I was seven. I think I’ll be fine without armor against a new student” I said slyly. After Robin was suited up, I showed him some basic defense moves. He learned them quite quickly, considering he was new to sword fighting.
“Remember; act as if the sword is an extension of your arm.” I reminded him. Next, I showed him some basic offensive moves.
“Good, now remember that your enemy will most likely have more experience then you, so you’ll need to be quick” I instructed. Finally, I taught him a disarming technique.
“I’ll be right back” I said. I went to the change and changed into my white karategi. I brought out my sai’s, Japanese fighting swords. When I got back to the mission room, Robin was gone, my armor and katana gone with him. I sighed. He has my lucky wrist guard. I heard someone approach quietly from behind me and smiled. He also had my squeaky knee guard. I whipped around and disarmed him within seconds.
“How did you know I was coming?” Robin asked
”Squeaky knee guard, a ninja’s worst enemy” I explained “I think you’ve had enough training for today” I put my sai’s in the closet, and then walked to the gymnasium. I got to the weight lifting bench, and started lifting 70 pounds over my head. I switched to the treadmill after twenty minutes of weight lifting. I ran for half an hour, and then switched to the balance beam, where I did back flips and cart wheels along its length. I walked to the girls change room, sweaty from my work out. Before I got in the shower, I made sure no one was near. I stepped in and turned the water on. I started humming Unfaithful by Rihanna. Then I started quietly singing them, then a bit louder, louder and louder until I was full out singing it. Nobody should have heard me, but of coarse some did. Someone always heard me.

Eyes of Artemis
Dick’s POV:
He let a small laugh escape through his mouth. He knew it was Artemis and maybe she knew he was Robin. But it was a tiny chance he looked at her, standing in the crowd talking to Rachel a senior year. He smiled. Artemis was in good hands.
Artemis POV:
“Thanks” She putted the papers in her bag. “tomorrow a need them back so don’t forget them.” “Got it.” Artemis answered. Rachel started to talk “Well, let’s start then, We are now in the hall of the Gotham academy.” Artemis looked around, everybody was to their lessons except a few. The hall itself was made of grey, silvery stone. The wall reflected the blue sky and she thought of the strange boy. “Are you coming or not?” Rachel stood in the giant stanchion. “I’m coming.” As she walked to Rachel remembering the mysterious laugh.
