*lunchtime in the kitchen in the JSA’s brownstone*
*Greta is telling Ma Hunkel about the "adventure" the weekend before*
It was awful, Ma! This lady, Isabel Bristol, got us all out to her house like it was some kind of publicity thing, but she just had her house all booby trapped. She was crazy!
*pauses a moment to take a bite of her sandwich*
The house was really creepy anyway, even without all the traps. And she had this creepy butler that was supposed to show us around. *snorts* Or something. He separated us all into different rooms, and that’s when things got bad. Robin got gassed but he had a little gas mask thingy in his belt. He does stuff like that. Imp-- whoops, Kid Flash, that one’s going to get me for a while -- anyway, he got dumped into a room in the basement and she tried to drown him in molasses. Can you believe that? Molasses!
Apparently she had some kind of problem with anyone who’s a hero with powers. She said that she had no problem with me, or Robin, or Speedy, but she was trying to kill Kid Flash, and Superboy and Wonder Girl. This lady was seriously nuts!
*gets up to put her plate in the sink, then sits back down at the table*
I was in the library with Speedy. She’s Green Arrow’s sidekick. She’s got a pretty red outfit with a hooded cape. Hmm, I wonder what it is with the girl archers wearing red? Anyway. Brentwood, the creepy butler took Kon and Cassie off to another room, and she poisoned Kon! She had kryptonite dust. How scary is that? Then all these guns came out of the walls and she tried to shoot Cassie, but Cassie blocked some of the bullets and blow a hole in the wall with her lasso.
I couldn’t hear any of that though. Miss Bristol had piped gas into the library to knock me and Speedy out, but Kid Flash and Robin dragged us out of there and we all met up in the ballroom. I feel really stupid getting knocked out by gas like that. I should know how gas acts and I should have been able to get away or something. It sucks. *sigh*
So, Speedy and I were just waking up and Kon wasn’t too steady on his feet, and then she started throwing these knives at us through the walls. I mean, they were just being shot out of the walls! Then there were these little grenade things that exploded with a lot of shrapnel flying all over the place. I didn’t get hurt or anything because Robin shielded us both with his cape.
Robin and Kid Flash figured out that Miss Bristol was hiding up in the east tower. We made our way up there, and Robin subdued her while Kid Flash ran to get the state troopers. Things did go a lot better once the whole team was all together. Although a couple of times along the way I had to be protected by either Speedy or Robin.
*her shoulders slump*
I hate that. I hate that someone always had to be shielding me or covering me. I felt so helpless. Even when I was just a cloud of smoke I was more useful than that. All I did last weekend was get in the way.
*sighs*
I probably shouldn’t go out there with the Titans anymore. I wouldn’t want to get in the way.
*looks up at the clock on the wall*
Time to get back to work, I guess. At least I can be useful here.
