Willow Bates has never spoken a single word. Due to her physical muteness, her life in Gotham City consists of frustration and a constant fear of the worst. She lives in an unending state of paranoia, and harbors guilt for her past. When tragedy strikes and Willow's life is changed forever, she finds solace (and maybe even love) in the Justice League's team of sidekicks. Through her new friends, she may find the power she needs to bring an end to her fear and finally extinguish the silence. ~~~ DISCLAIMER: I own nothing except my OC. DC and Cartoon Network own everything else. ❤️This story is dedicated to Adam West, the man who taught us that even the Dark Knight was capable of happiness and made my love for Batman possible! ❤️
