She stood in the hall outside Slade's office, rage and frustration boiling beneath the surface of her induced calm. She could sense him indirectly through her placating link to Robin, just as she could feel Robin unconsciously probing at his own indifference

The scientist had dropped her off here... Well, where ever here was. Nina sighed, gripping her scythe quite tightly, lest it was taken away from her again.

'...Who is that?' She thought to herself, glancing around nervously. No one else was nearby. Well, why the hell not.

"Excuse me... Ma'am? Where could I find a Mr. Slade? I'm a new arrival..." Nina muttered politly, lime green eyes suddenly very interested in the floor paneling. Damn taciturn nature.

Iris turned, smiling automatically, hardly recognizing her own voice when she speaks.

"Welcome. Master Slade has just returned, but it might be a while before he can meet with you." She glanced at the door, sensing that she had a few minutes before he services would be needed.

She sighed, waiting for Slade to call her. She knew what he needed her to do, because she knew his plan. She knew all of his plans. For this scheme, anyway...

-Don't want to, don't want to, don't want to...-

She closed her eyes, focusing inward. Part of her mind, her power, strove to calm that voice inside... and a smaller, more desperate part, railed with it, battering at her concentration.

As always of late... the larger voice won out and she was filled with stillness. She opened her eyes, one hand clenched around her pendant.

-Come, child. It is time.-

Her eyes flared red and she opened the door, walking into the darkness of the docking station...
