Chapter 16-
The reporters waited. Revenge picked up an AK-47 and showed it to the cameras.
"This belongs to the Soviet Union."
One reporter laughed.
"Not funny."
He stopped.
"The Soviets are making a come-back. Right beneath your feet is an elaborate base housing hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Millions of pounds of armed weapons. And, the leader of the new U.S.S.R. is-"
"SIEZE THEM!!!"
Soldiers poured into the room and grabbed the four hero's arms pinning them to the wall.
"You are under arrest for an assassination attempt against the Russian President!" a soldier said, fastening handcuffs on Nightwing.
One guard walked over to Revenge.
"Good Luck." he said.
Revenge flipped over the guards and grabbed his handcuffs. He tackled the Russian President and handcuffed him.
"Mr. President, you are hereby under arrest for war crimes against humanity."
Revenge stood up. "I forget your rights in Russia."
Reporters swarmed around Red Revenge.
"I'll send proof the United Nations and the Russian Government."
"Gutsy." Wondergirl said. Nightwing ushered her and Batgirl out.
-------------------------------------
"The heroes Nightwing, Wondergirl, and Batgirl, along with the vigilante Red Revenge provided video footage and proof to United Nations officials of the Soviet Base." Samuel Grant said at a press conference.
"Notice how he said 'vigilante' when referring to Red Revenge?" Artemis asked. "He must know the guy is a jerk."
"Oh, he thinks highly of Revenge. In fact, when they first met--"
"They've met?!" Artemis exclaimed.
"Oh yeah." Nightwing said with a devilish grin. "They're like best friends!"
Artemis groaned as the footage stopped and the video switched to show the Russian President being escorted to a prison plane. The footage went black. Batman's face appeared on the screen.
"Nightwing, Wondergirl, return to the Cave immediately via zeta-tube."
The two nodded and left.
"Batgirl, you'll be flying home to make an emergency stop in Germany. Artemis, I am entrusting the safety of Samuel Grant to you."
Artemis nodded.
"The boy is flying home in one hour. You'll follow in the bishop. Full invisibility. Batman out."

Sam pulled off his Red Revenge mask and slipped on a white shirt over his jeans, stepping out of the closet.
"Well that went well." he muttered to himself.
"Mr. Grant?"
The pilot of the private jet walked into the room.
"We'll be departing in half an hour. Is there anything you wish to do before departing?"
"No Jane, I just want to go home. Back to the safety of New York."
The pilot nodded and began to walk out when a bullet went clean through her neck. The glass shattered as she fell to the floor, a vacant, empty look in her eyes.
"Damn!" Sam yelled, ducking behind a solid piece of wall. "Fine time to take off my bullet-proof suit."
The reporters waited. Revenge picked up an AK-47 and showed it to the cameras.

"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?"

"This Way!" Revenge yelled.
I followed, ducking into a closet. My yellow/black cape swished behind me and exposed where we were.
"Tam! Ogan'!" a voice yelled.
The Russians brought their guns to bear on the wooden door and fired. Revenge leaped in front of me, taking the shock and damage of the bullets. But fifteen AK-47s firing into his chest managed to knock him out.
The Russians busted open the door and knocked me down with a rifle to the head. One pointed his gun at me.
"Ostan'sya vnizu malen'kaya devochka!" he yelled.
I struggled to think, the blow to my head had me in a daze.
"C'mon Barbara! Think! You're in Russia! Batman taught you this much."
After a bit of thinking, I managed to translate it into 'Stay down little girl'.
The next time they said something, it was easier to translate.
"Voz'mite ikh s losifom!"
Translation: Take them to Joseph.
