Chapter Eleven-


"Positions?" Revenge asked, crouching on the roof.

"All here." Draxx said.

"You see him, hit him. No loose ends this time." Revenge said. "No mercy." he added with gritted teeth.

"Revenge, I'm picking up a couple of civilian vehicles approaching. Few minivans. Reaper-"

"Is probably hiding inside." Revenge finished. "We can't endanger civilians, I'll warn Draxx's snipers."

Revenge switched the frequency to the one the cops were on. "Snipers, beware. Reaper is most likely going to make his entrance through this upcoming group of civilian vehicles. Hit him, don't hurt civilians though."

"Roger." the snipers replied.

Revenge pulled out a few explosive daggers and prepared to throw them. The civilian vehicles passed 由 slowly, but nothing happened. Revenge almost thought he was wrong when somebody let loose an AK-47 at the groups of cops.

"Hit the ground!" Revenge yelled, following his own advice.

Turning on infrared, Revenge searched the vehicles for the heat 来源 of the AK. Third vehicle to the right. Luckily, all the cars had stopped, so Revenge wouldn't have to hit a moving target.

Pulling out some knock-out gas, Revenge threw the grenades into the designated vehicle. Before they could detonate however, the hooded figure jumped out and continued firing while the driver got a dose of the gas and laid down on the horn.

Revenge tossed a few exploding daggers into Reaper's path causing the hooded figure to leap back In order to make sure he didnt get hit with any shrapnel.

Revenge slid down the rain gutter, but before he could engage the murderer on foot, Reaper disappeared down the alley.

Draxx went over to the vehicle Reaper had been in and opened the hood, shooting the horn.

"Damn that was annoying." he 说 to the caped vigilante, but when he turned around, he was gone.

The crosshairs lined up perfectly.

Luthor moved slowly towards the building giving 冬青, 冬青树 plenty of time to fire.

Her finger squeezed the trigger.

Luthor continued to move.

Artemis watched with concern.

Holly's finger squeezed harder on the trigger.



But she didn't fire.

Luthor walked in the building, disappearing from the scope.

冬青, 冬青树 gasped and put the gun down.

"I can't." she said.

"Good, 你 passed." Artemis said.

冬青, 冬青树 looked at her strangely.

"Look, I'm not too happy with this setup, but I was the only reasonable choice for this." Artemis began. "This was an actual mission 蝙蝠侠 gave you, but I was supposed to sabotage it to where 你 couldn't succeed. It was designed to test whether 你 would kill someone 或者 not, and whether 你 would betray us."

Holly's head swirled with all of the information she had absorbed. 

"Wait, so you're saying that even if I had tried to kill Luthor, I couldn't?" 冬青, 冬青树 asked.

"No." Artemis said, the same sad look on her face as before.

冬青, 冬青树 just looked at her blankly for a few 秒 before standing up.

"Of all the low, horrible, terrible things 你 could do, 你 did this." 冬青, 冬青树 said, disgusted. "And I thought 你 were my friend."

Artemis stood up as well. "I didn't have a choice. This was a mission for my survival on the Team as well!" 

"That doesn't make it right." 冬青, 冬青树 said.

Artemis didn't have a response so 冬青, 冬青树 jumped off the edge of the building and grappled toward the zeta-tube on the other side of the city.

The door was smoking 由 the time Revenge got there. Reaper had left his mark.

"Oh mom." Revenge muttered, running inside.
