"Not very well," Carrie said. "I kept thinking about what happened last night."

"Same here. Today's gonna be hell. I can feel it." Chris said as he looked into Carrie's eyes.

Carrie gave Chris a small smile. "I think we should just try putting it out of our minds. We're not going to be able to function if we don't."

On their way to school, Wicz and his sister had their usual conversation about work and social life. Their chat actually helped his alleviate his moods. By the time they arrived to their destination, Wicz opened the door to leave after she told him to be careful and returned early.
“Sis, I’ll be ok. No worries.” Wicz assures her.
“I hope you mean it. You understand, young man.” Susie reprimanded.
“Will you stop saying ‘hope’? I know what I’m doing, okay.” Wicz retorted with a raised voice. Not realizing his tendency to yell without thinking.
"Don't you dare!" Susie didn't like it when her brother is in one of those moods. "Don't you dare raise your voice like that! You don't even know why you do that!"
Wicz looked down while internally scoffed by the common reaction his sister's getting. "No.. I don't know why." He muttered, his voice slightly relaxed from his outburst. "But alright, I'll leave early."
“I guess. Bye Dragi.” With a sigh, Susie kissed her brother’s cheek as he gently closed the door. Watching his sister drove off, Wicz rolled his eyes and shook his head before crossing the street. “I know she means well. But… ugh… it’s complicated.” He told Dodo. Since he didn’t tell his family what really happened yesterday, he told his inanimate companion since he trust him implicitly. "What more can I do..." With a sigh through his nose, Wicz walked slowly to the school's entrance.

Time quickly flew by as the sounds of children filing into school was replaced with the euphoria that child and teacher feel when the school day has ended. Dr. Oliver was back in Reefside, making preparations to return to Gotham as promised.
"Man, an invisiportal would be really handy right now, or at least my old communicator." As he was moving his belongings around, the former Ranger noticed a glow out of the corner of his eye. Walking over to the source, he saw that the gems were giving off energy, much to his surprise.
"That's not what I was expecting to see today." Dr. Oliver walked over to the table where the gems laid. He picked up his gem and in his hands, the gem lost his light but when he put the gem back into the case, it started to glow again.. "This is unreal! If the gem isn't responding to me anymore, then that means that the gems have reset themselves and if they've reset.... I have to get back to Gotham! And fast!"

With his last period ended, Wicz leaves the school bungalows and went directly to the administration building where the entrance is located. So far it was monotonous despite the gossip swirling around in regards to yesterday's events. He felt grateful no one knew the extent of incident involving him or else he'll be doomed. He hasn't seen Chris or Carrie all day and it made him worried because he wonders how they fare after all that. But knowing them for a short time, he shouldn't be worried.
He was so caught up with his thoughts that he slammed himself against the wall. Recollecting himself, Wicz picked up his glasses, his orange baseball cap, and his lunch pail before darting towards the entrance where he could finally take a breather sat down on the stairs. Luckily for the teen, his glasses are still intact thanks to his cap so no problems on that one.

Bruce returned to the manor after a long day's work at the office. The Billionaire Playboy set out to check for any disturbances before setting out on patrol now that the sun was setting. During his review, Bruce noticed his phone ringing. When he saw that the caller was Dr. Oliver, he plugged the phone into one of the ports on his console, allowing the call to be received on the computer.
"Yes?"
"Bruce, we have a big problem. It's the gems... they've reset."
"What do you mean reset? I was under the impression that the gems were dormant, save for the Yellow one."
"I did too, but apparently, the gems are evolving and part of their evolution is feeding off of one another and since the gems have had 11 years to replenish their energy after being dormant for 11 years, they appear to be functional again."
"Why are you telling me this? The gems are in your possession now."
"Right, which is why I'm on the way back. There's one other thing. Apparently, when they reset, the bond with their original users also broke. I can't tap into the power of the gem anymore and the last people to touch those gems are..."
"Those kids! Damn!"
"Bruce, I am still hours away, but you've got to get a hold of those guys. Assuming I'm right and the gems have chosen three new users, they're officially human targets."
"And what do you propose I do once I find them?"
"Train them. They need to be able to wield the power properly and defend themselves because there's only one other way to break their bond with the gems and I don't think either of us want to see that."
"I don't do sidekicks. Not anymore."
"But you can do a team.... I know this isn't your first go around managing a team. Those kids are going to need you, Bruce. Please!"
"Fine. Bring the weapons. I'll find the kids."
"Thank you, Bruce."
CLICK
Bruce ended the call before letting out a deep sigh. The Caped Crusader has acquired an instant resentment towards those gems due to how they've latched on to those teenagers, forcing him to do the one thing he didn't want to do since the incident with Tim... get new partners.

Before Carrie and Chris had gone to their respective classes they agreed to meet at the entrance of the school and hope that they could spot Wicz as they were leaving. Now that school was over she slung her backpack over her shoulder and headed toward the front. She saw Wicz near the entrance through the crowd of students leaving. He seemed lost in thought and she saw that he was about to slam into the wall. Before she could call out a warning he hit it. She winced and tried to get to him to help but another girl in her class started to ask her a question. She answered as quickly as possible before hurrying forward. "Are you okay?" she asked when she finally got to him.

Rubbing his head, Wicz manage to turn his head to see Carrie watching him in concern. “Oh... uhm... I’m okay.” He assures her. “I didn’t hurt myself too bad. Hell my glasses aren’t broken thanks to my cap."

Chris had just walked out of the front entrance of the school when he seen Carrie tending to Wicz. He hastily made his way down there and joined the two. "Let me guess. Lost in thoughts?" Chris said as he said as the brim of wicz cap was roughed up.

“When you put that way, yes.” Wicz foreboded to Chris after he arrived. “I was just thinking about yesterday. That’s why.”

The sun was setting on an otherwise beautiful day in Gotham City. Although most citizens have moved on from last night's events, the teen trio still couldn't shake the sensation that the gems provided. Just as things began to settle for the evening, dozens of Assassins began to emerge from their hiding places with their bow and arrows drawn, preparing to set the city ablaze.
***
With the sun setting on Gotham, it was time for Bruce Wayne to transition into his night job. As Bruce put on his work attire, he received another call through his computer, leaving Bruce slightly annoyed.
"What is it?"
"Beloved..."
"Talia...."
"Please reconsider. There are dozens of my father's forces in your city, far more than you can hope to stop on your own. Join us. Assume your rightful place on the throne and claim all that is yours, including me."
Bruce remained silent for a moment, allowing himself to think of what life would be like with Talia, but that moment was a brief one. "I'm sorry, Talia. But my answer is no."
"I'm sorry too, Beloved. I truly didn't want to see your city burn." Talia ended the conversation, leaving Bruce to securing his mask and putting on his utility belt.
"Master Bruce, shall I contact the League?"
"No, Alfred. They are on another world fighting Vandal Savage and the ones still here wouldn't get here in time."
"But you heard her, sir. You will be severely outnumbered and too spread out. I don't see a way out of this without assistance."
"There's always a way." Batman ran towards his jet, taking a strong leap into the cockpit before firing up the engines.

"I've been thinking about it too," Carrie said. She looked at Chris. "I know I said earlier that we should try putting it out of our minds but I couldn't do it." She sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. "I just don't know what to do."

"Its like I said. Those gems chose us. We didn't choose them and your right. It's not like there gonna fall right out of the sky and into our hands." Chris said as he folded his arms.

"Dude, don't jinx it like that. If it happens, I would've called you psychic." Wicz articulated to Chris, turning his cap backwards before continuing. "Anyway, I get that we're not over yesterday and believe me, I think about the alternatives. But I wonder if these… these circumstances might lead us to a lifetime chance of something huge."
