Chapter Nine:
"If Sportsmaster is here, we may need to pull the girls out." Blue Beetle said.
"No." Nightwing replied. "Holly hasn't called for an extraction."
"You're trusting her?" Revenge asked.
"Yes. She's been in this atmosphere where none of the others have. She'll know when is best to call for an extraction."
"You're dumber than I thought."
"You don't trust her?"
"As someone to fight with, not protect my back and DEFINITELY not put other people's lives in danger."
"The girls are NOT in danger." Nightwing replied.
Blue Beetle reached for his hamburger, but Sam and Nightwing batted his hand down.
"I never sinabi they were in danger. I just hoped that you were smart enough to put someone trustworthy in charge of calling for an extraction."
"She's YOUR partner, knows YOUR identity, and you don't trust her?"
"Not sidekick and definitely not partner." Revenge said, folding his arms across his chest. "This is a school of assassins run sa pamamagitan ng a dangerous criminal and you put holly in charge?"
"How do you know it's a school of assassins?" Nightwing asked.
"I have my sources."
"What else arent you telling us?"
"That it's a suicide mission, you know. That your girlfriend runs it, you know."
"She's not my girlfriend." Nightwing interrupted, narrowing his eyes.
"Doesn't look like it from the data tapes."
Nightwing growled. Beetle tried to pick up his burger again, but Revenge and Nightwing shoved his hand down again.
"Come on, hombre! lemme eat!"
Revenge got up from the mesa and stormed off.

"Well that didn't help much." holly said, following Cassie on the way back toward the dormitory.
"It's Vandall Savage!" Cassandra exclaimed silently as they entered their dorm. "Isn't that enough proof?"
"All he sinabi was 'Good Progress'. That's not near enough--"
holly was interrupted sa pamamagitan ng the blonde ramming her into the pader susunod to her bed.
"You're determined to stay here as long as yo can, aren't you?" Cassie demanded.
"Cassandra. Put me down. Now."
holly mustered so much authority, Cassie let her drop.
"Emerald, Wondergirl." Megan called to them telepathically.
"Here." holly replied mentally. "What?"
"I borrowed information from one of the teachers. Karen is being held in a secret laboratory. Batgirl and I are going after her."
"What do we do?" Cassie asked.
"Stay put and wait for my order." Megan replied.
