When I got to the mission room, nobody was there. I looked around. Nothing.
“Hello? Anyone there?” I called. Suddenly, arms of steel grabbed me around the waist and around my mouth so I couldn’t speak. I fought the grip, but it wouldn’t budge. A gag was placed over my mouth and hand cuffs were placed on my wrists. I was dropped onto the floor, and then a yellow gas filled my face. My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim. I saw looking Robin looking down on me. The rage that followed was enough to clear the air around me of the yellow smoke. I fought my hand cuffs with all my might. I saw Robin look away as something smacked me across the head and made me go unconscious.

I opened my eyes to find myself in a plain room. I went to rub my eyes, but my hands were strapped to a table. I licked the roof of my mouth to find it dry. I saw a glass of water just out of my reach. I tried to use my water powers from Poseidon, but I couldn’t without my hands. I tried to summon a shadow portal. I had the same problem.
“Metamorfó̱ste to fídi” I said. When nothing happened, I noticed the magical wards on my hands. Whoever did this obviously thought of everything. Well, almost everything. I still had my powers from Athena, Apollo and Demeter. A strategy was already forming in my head when someone walked in. It was batman and Robin.
“Where am I?” I demanded
“Arkham Asylum” batman responded
“You mean the place for crazy villains?” I asked “Are tu calling me crazy?”
“Sarah, please. Listen to us.” Robin pleaded
“You expect me to listen to you, traitor?!” I growled
“Sarah, we need some answers” batman dicho before Robin could respond.
“Why? tu seem to know everything: the sleeping gas, the magic wards, and the restraints to stop my powers” I glared at them
“I want to know three things: Why tu hate your birthday so much, why tu hid from us in your dome and where tu sent Kalder” batman said, ignoring my last statement.
“Personal reasons, personal reasons and he should have come out on the beach” I answered
“What do tu mean ‘should have’” Robin asked
“See, my shadow portals take tu to where ever I’m thinking. I was only half thinking about the playa so he could’ve come out on- oh no” I interrupted myself. I smacked the mesa, tabla and the glass of water spilled and ran down to my hands. It washed off my magic wards. I executed part of my plan: canto such a high note, batman and Robin went unconscious. I changed into a snake and slithered out of my restraints. I wrapped them in vines, then opened a shadow portal to Mount Tam. The mountain where Atlas holds up the sky.

Sneak Peek Part II
Revenge o Redemption
"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 pistolas to oso, oso de 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 tu this much."
After a bit of thinking, I managed to translate it into 'Stay down little girl'.
The siguiente time they dicho something, it was easier to translate.
"Voz'mite ikh s losifom!"
Translation: Take them to Joseph.

C'mon. Did tu really expect me to end it there? XD
Epilouge:
Slade moved into the room. He bowed before the dark shadow. The voice spoke to him.
“You failed me Slade.”
“I know master. But she is stronger than we first expected.”
“Yes. I know. I expected as much from her. But we now have her in a dangerous position.”
“Master?”
“Shade must make her choice. She has followed the Light for seventy years. Now, she must choose whether she is willing to risk everything o to continue to play hero.”
“And if she chooses hero?”
“She won't.”
“But Master-”
“Shade thinks she is in the clear. But I have one last trick up my sleeve.”
