Kaldur sat in his room on the floor. All the pictures and emblems of him and Jade sat scattered around him. Looking at them was both healing and painful. Never had he thought Jade would have to leave. It had been buried in the back of his mind but he had never acknowledged it. He had always pushed it away, caught up in the feeling of having Jade close. Bu now he had to come to terms that this was not a dream. Jade was leaving and she was just as broken as he was. A knock sounded at his door but he didn't answer. It opened and he looked up.
“Hey,” Becca said, shutting the door.
Kaldur didn't answer but she came closer and sat across from him on the other side of the circle. She picked up a picture of the pair, gently running her fingers over it.
“You know, Jade has never been good at relationships.”
Kaldur looked up to find her eyes on him.
“I do not understand.”
“Jade has had this thing where her relationships have all ended badly. She blames her work. But I blame this on myself.”
“Why do anda blame yourself?”
“Because I've pushed her. Her last job was on a planet called Ariles. And she was in cinta with the prince there. I pushed her to admit her feelings to him. He loved her back. Six months later, he died.”
“How is this your fault?”
“I pushed her first love. I kinda pushed her second. If only I had stayed out of this! Why can't I just for once-”
Becca was cut off oleh a sudden ring. She pulled out her com link and a holographic image of Erin appeared.
“There anda are! We need help! Please come help us!”
“What's wrong?”
“Another attack.”
“Ivy?”
“Nope. Doomsday.”
“Kay. I'll be there.”
Becca put the link back and looked at Kaldur.
“I obviously have to go. But I think anda get the idea. Don't waste today thinking about Jade's leaving. Spend today...preparing for it. Have a few lebih moments with her. You'll never heal if anda keep it bottled up. Take it from me.”
Kaldur suddenly hugged her and Becca was stunned even after he pulled away.
“Thank you, my friend. anda are a true helper. Like always.”
“Hm. Like always, I wouldn't be a very good advisor. I hurt too many people.”
“Perhaps. But anda always end up healing those who are hurting most.”
“Hey,” Becca said, shutting the door.
Kaldur didn't answer but she came closer and sat across from him on the other side of the circle. She picked up a picture of the pair, gently running her fingers over it.

C'mon. Did anda 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 atau 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.”

Robin:
i decided to take a quick walk to get Artemis and Wally's yelling out of my head. there where little snowflakes falling and frost gathered on the ground, the harbor had a happy Christmasy feel to it, i walked oleh a little group of kids and they were singing.
"Dashing through the snow, in a pair of broken skis over the hills we go crashing into trees bam, bam, bam the snow is turning red i think i'm almost dead woke up in the hospital with stitches in my head" the song was odd but the kids were laughing, anda just had to smile, but then the kids went on to the detik verse.
"Jingle bells, batman smells," WAIT WHAT?! my eyes widen
"Robin laid and egg," I glare and stomp up the sidewalk, but the kids are still singing
"The Bat-mobile lost its wheel and Joker flew away HEY, jingle bells, jingle bells.........." i mutter stupid kids
