Dick's Pov

The League and the Team stared back at me, waiting for me to start. I was wringing my hands, a habit I had picked up in the past few months. Down on earth, it was probably around noon, but the stars surrounding the Tower seemed threatening as if pulling me into their depths.

Babs looked at me and nodded. I took a deep breath.

Kristen.

"Kristen has been missing for four months," Around me, a few heads looked down. "But I did get a chance to talk to her a few months back."

Everyone was looking at me now, my heart was beating out of my chest. "When I finally pulled together all my worries, I headed over to her apartment, but her guardian answered the door. I know her, she knows me, so I couldn't figure out why she looked scared, or why she felt the need to block the doorway."

"I asked for Kris, but I was told she wasn't home. Which was weird, since I tracked her watch to the apartment," I looked at my hands, and then back up at the eager faces of my teammates. "She never takes off that watch. She may have destroyed the chip in it, the one we have, but she also knows me. She knows I could find her with that thing on."

"My best guess, she wanted me to find her," I paused to take a deep breath. "So I did."

"We met on the roof where we first met. I was in civvies, no weapons or backup. I was by myself. I remember looking at her for the first time in a month. I remember feeling like taking her and running away forever, just so I wouldn't lose her again," A few people in the crowd shuffled, but I didn't care if I was making them uncomfortable.

"I remember her flinching when I reached out," I had to close my eyes for a second, to replace the memory with something good. Something like her smile. "I don't what happened, but they did something to her because she believes we've turned against her. She's convinced we're out for her blood."

"I don't know what you want to do as a team, or if you, the League, are worried about her exposing us. But I'm going to put my cards on the table right now," I looked specifically at Bruce. "You can choose to take her in as a prisoner to keep the League and the Team safe, but I will do everything in my power to make sure none of you can even start looking for her."

"Or, you can help me, and figure out a way to bring her back. A way to bring back the real Scarlet," This time I was addressing the Team. I knew they wouldn't do anything rash to Kris, but all I could think about was how they reacted to Kaldur going undercover.

I loved this girl, and I couldn't even see if she was okay. "Because no matter your decision, I am not about to let her go."

Hey Heroes,

Long time no see!!

Honestly, I miss posting so much, but I decided to only preview this chapter instead of post the full thing as planned. Instead, the new sequel will be up and going exactly a month from today.

So here's what you can do.

Mark your calendars, follow me, or you know just check up on me once and a while. That's cool too, I guess.

But yes, the sequel is currently going through the draft and edit process and will be up very soon.

I'm so excited for this sequel because there is a lot, and I mean, A LOT of big, brand new stuff that I do in this book, and I can't wait for you guys to read it. So bring your tissues and get ready for the continuation of Scarlet Justice....
