Chapter Nine:
"If Sportsmaster is here, we may need to pull the girls out." Blue Beetle said.
"No." Nightwing replied. "Holly hasn't called for an extraction."
"You're trusting her?" Revenge asked.
"Yes. She's been in this atmosphere where none of the others have. She'll know when is best to call for an extraction."
"You're dumber than I thought."
"You don't trust her?"
"As someone to fight with, not protect my back and DEFINITELY not put other people's lives in danger."
"The girls are NOT in danger." Nightwing replied.
Blue Beetle reached for his hamburger, but Sam and Nightwing batted his hand down.
"I never a dit they were in danger. I just hoped that toi were smart enough to put someone trustworthy in charge of calling for an extraction."
"She's YOUR partner, knows YOUR identity, and toi don't trust her?"
"Not sidekick and definitely not partner." Revenge said, folding his arms across his chest. "This is a school of assassins run par a dangerous criminal and toi put houx in charge?"
"How do toi know it's a school of assassins?" Nightwing asked.
"I have my sources."
"What else arent toi telling us?"
"That it's a suicide mission, toi know. That your girlfriend runs it, toi know."
"She's not my girlfriend." Nightwing interrupted, narrowing his eyes.
"Doesn't look like it from the data tapes."
Nightwing growled. Beetle tried to pick up his burger again, but Revenge and Nightwing shoved his hand down again.
"Come on, hombre! lemme eat!"
Revenge got up from the table, tableau and stormed off.

"Well that didn't help much." houx said, following Cassie on the way back toward the dormitory.
"It's Vandall Savage!" Cassandra exclaimed silently as they entered their dorm. "Isn't that enough proof?"
"All he a dit was 'Good Progress'. That's not near enough--"
houx was interrupted par the blonde ramming her into the mur suivant to her bed.
"You're determined to stay here as long as yo can, aren't you?" Cassie demanded.
"Cassandra. Put me down. Now."
houx mustered so much authority, Cassie let her drop.
"Emerald, Wondergirl." Megan called to them telepathically.
"Here." houx replied mentally. "What?"
"I borrowed information from one of the teachers. Karen is being held in a secret laboratory. Batgirl and I are going after her."
"What do we do?" Cassie asked.
"Stay put and wait for my order." Megan replied.
"If Sportsmaster is here, we may need to pull the girls out." Blue Beetle said.
