└─── · 。ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───┘
→ DONNA AND JULIAN walked beside each other at the runway. "i trust your good byes were brief but meaningful." julian said.
"yes." donna replied.
"donna!" garth yelled. donna and julian turned around. garth walked up to donna, "this is why you slept with me? because you knew you had an out?" garth asked.
"can we please not do this right now?" donna asked.
"no. unlike you looking for that damn clownfish, i don't give up that easily." garth said.
"what does this have to do with clownfish?" julian asked.
"nothing."
"everything!"
garth looked at donna who was tearing up, "i'm sorry about tonight. but that's what happens when you live for the moment." donna said.
"right. because you're the fierce amazon warrior and i'm the impulsive atlantian who drifts wherever the current takes him, right?"
"no.."
"donna. don't run."
"you're asking me to chose between my destiny and you."
"maybe they're the same thing."
donna and garth stared at each other. "i love you, donna troy." garth said, "i always have." donna exhaled shakily.
"and i always will." garth said.
donna looked away. garth started to turning and walking away. donna ran to him, "garth?!" garth turned around and donna hugged him, garth instantly hugging her back.
donna pulled back and they smiled each other. "so, should i send the jet home?" julian asked, pointing to the jet behind them.
a gunshot was heard. garth turned around and a bullet flew through the air and into his chest. garth fell in the ground. "garth!!" donna yelled, running down to him.
deathstroke fired again, aiming for donna. julian threw a star and it split the bullet in two. deathstroke moved out of the way from the star as it hit the pole behind him.
"garth!!" donna yelled.
"come on!" julian yelled, dragging donna out of fire. deathstroke turned back around and saw donna and julian were gone.
julian held a crying donna as she stared at garth's dead body.

donna stared out the window as julian walked up to her. "i need to stay here. the team needs me." donna said.
"be careful." julian said, "revenge is a dangerous path to go down."
donna didn't reply, she just stared.
meanwhile, at titans tower, dick was looking through the security footage the night of garth's death.
he found a freeze frame of deathstroke and ran an identity scan for him. dick waited for the computer to beep and it did.
"one match identified."
in the living room, hank, dawn, and octavia were cleaning up the party decorations from garth's party. dawn and octavia turned when they heard the sound of the elevator opening.
donna walked into the tower. dawn walked up to her, "oh you're back," she hugged donna, "it's so sorry."
"if i hadn't left... it wouldn't have happened." donna cried. "no." dawn said, holding her hands on donna's arms.
"don't blame yourself, donna." octavia said, walking over to them. "she's right, we don't know what this is about." hank said.
dick walked into the room, making them look at him.
"i found the shooter."
everyone was gathered in the tech room, looking at pictures of slade wilson, aka deathstroke.
"he's name is deathstroke." dick said.
"we're gonna hunt this fucker down." hank said, "and make him pay."
"now's the time." dawn said, her and dick looking at each other, "be batman." dick looked back at the picture of deathstroke.

SIX WEEKS LATER
octavia was walking down the street, texting dawn, "yes, dawn, i'm on my way back from my session now." octavia texted.
"how did it go?"
"it went well." octavia replied.
"you okay?"
"i'm okay." octavia replied, "don't worry about me, dawn. i'm almost ho—"
mid text, someone grabbed octavia from the alleyway she was passing and dragged her inside. octavia yelled in surprise, dropping her phone.
octavia was struggling against the grip of someone holding her against the wall. he had his hand over her mouth as she fought against his grip.
"ssh.." the man shushed her, taking out a needle.
octavia took out a knife and noticing the knife, the man jammed the needle in her neck. octavia gasped into his hand and dropped the knife on the ground.
octavia's vision became blurry as she stumbled on her feet. octavia's eyes became heavier but she could see her attacker.
all she could make out was an eyepatch.
octavia groaned softly and fell forward, collapsing into his chest. the man reached down and picked up her legs and carried her down the alleyway.
