Left Behind/~/Bart Allen

Chapter 14

I climbed up the stairs to my room and slipped on some black leggings and an oversized sweatshirt. I pulled out a phone, that Bruce bought me, and called Bart. He was probably having his late night snack about now. On the first ring he picked up. "Ollo," he said. I could hear him rummaging through the fridge. "Hey Bart, you busy tonight? I thought we could maybe go for a late night food spree?"

"Sure! How 'bout I pick you up now?" we finished talking and three seconds later I pebble was thrown at my window. I opened it and jumped out. I did a flip and landed in Bart's arms perfectly. "Let's go! I'm starved." I said. He began running and in two seconds we were in the middle of Gotham city surrounded by food trucks. Bart rubbed his hands together and said, "So where do we start? I vote the burritos."

"Alright burritos, but then let's get tacos." We ordered four burritos, three for Bart and one for me. "So," I said swallowing my final bite of burrito, "How's the team? I haven't really met them, unless you want to count the time they attacked me."

"Oh they're great." he said picking up his third burrito. "Blue and I get along really well."

"That's good. Maybe that'll keep him from going crazy in the future."

"I was thinking though. I don't think that was blue in the future." I must have had a confused looked because he quickly said. "I mean in the future he sounds a lot like Black Beetle and has the same body shape." he chuckled. "Blue's too shrimpy to get so big in the future."

"Agreed. We never saw Black Beetle. Do you think Black beetle stole Blue's scarab?"

"Maybe. I mean it is a true possibility. But then Blue would then be..." he trailed off and finished his burrito. "I lost my appetite let's just walk around." I said standing up and grabbing my trash. He stood up and smiled. "How about we go downtown. They's a small chinese place." my appetite suddenly came back. I jumped on his back. "To downtown!" I said pointing forward. He took the long way, letting me see all the lights wiz past us and the wind nip at our faces. When we stopped again I ran into the small restaurant and looked the menu up and down. "Welcome to Ching Chang's Chinese," said a girl probably in her late teens, obviously bored behind the counter putting down her phone. "What can we get you today?"

"May I get the extra large orange chicken special with two containers of steam fried rice?" I asked smiling. She scoffed and took down my order. Bart came in a moment later looked around. "What you'd get?"

"Orange chicken and rice duh." I said. He smiled and licked his lips ready to devourer all of it. Soon the girl came up to us with our food. I paid her with a large tip and thanked her. "Hey aren't you guys too young to be out here alone?"

"Yep." I replied and walked out with Bart behind me trying to grab the bag. I swatted away his hand. "Patients is a virtue."

"A virtue I don't have." Bart whined.

"Then get it." we sat down at the park, which was conveniently across the street, and sat down on a bench. We took out the chicken and tried to eat it slowly. We ate it all in under five minutes. I handed Bart a container of rice and took my own beginning to eat that. Soon Bart began to yawn and his head drooped. I nudged him a little and giggled. "You tired much?"
He hummed in response closing his eyes. I dragged him to his feet and propped him up. "Come on Bart. run home it's really late."

"What about you? He asked.

"I can walk." I gave him a peck on his cheek and ruffled his hair. "Night Bart."

"Night M'Lady." he said then ran off. I began to throw our trash away then began my long walk back to the manor. I was about halfway home, lightly humming as I walked home, but then two big men in clown makeup stepped in my path. I didn't stop, in fact, I sprinted forward and knocked down Clown One, then jumped up and kicked Clown Two in the face. As I was tying up the clowns, Clown Three walked out of the alley and knocked the side of my head. I fell to the ground, cursing myself for not being more aware of my surroundings, I watched as the Joker bent down to my level and smiled. "Hello little Girl. we are going to have so much fun." I choked back a laugh. "You wish clown." then the world went dark.
