“Wait, he’s your dad?” Wally finally managed
“Yes” I nodded
“And bạn were hugging him because…?” Robin asked
“None of your beeswax!” I snarled
“Woah…touchy” he muttered
“I’ll hiển thị bạn touchy mister ‘I’m so cool and awesome because Batman’s my mentor’” I muttered under my breath.
“Why didn’t bạn tell us?” Wolverine asked
“Because it didn’t concern you. My family concerns Me, Kurt, Laurna, Laura, Wanda and Gambit. No one else” I growled
“Why does it concern them?” Aqualad asked
“Because they’re the closest the to family I have, aside from Gambit” I said
“What about your mother?” Wally asked
“My mother…” I whispered
“Yeah, your mom, mum, mama, ma, mommy, mother, mu-“ Wally ranted
“She’s dead! Are bạn happy now?!” I demanded, tears brimming my eyes. I spun on my heel and walked out. I heard people walking after me. I broke into a run. I didn’t want anyone taking advantage of me while I was in such a fragile state. I ran to a bridge, where I broke down. Someone came over and sat beside me.
“You okay, G?” she asked
“I-I don’t like talking about it, Domino” I said, wiping tears from my eyes.
“If bạn keep it all bottled up, you’ll never be able to feel free” she said
“M-my mom was killed when I was ten. When I was thirteen, my dormant X-gene awakened. Gambit ran off, leaving me alone. When I was on the run one day, Kurt found me and brought me to Wanda and Laurna. I got scared, so I ran off again. I ran into X-23, who Kurt had contacted to find me. She calmed me down and brought me back to Kurt, Wanda and Laurna. And that’s how I made my family” I explained
“And when Remy helped bạn cope through your mom’s death a couple phút ago, it was like the bonding you’d been deprived of as a child” she nodded. I nodded and shivered.
“D, what should I do? I can’t stay here; the Brother mui xe might re-attack. If I go back to Gotham, Người dơi will find me. I just want to be alone” I said
“Then be alone. Travel. Before I joined the Brother Hood, I was unsure of my place in the world. I traveled around Europe, Asia and America a bit, got my head straight and joined them” Domino said. I smiled at her.
“Thanks D” I hugged her.
“Us girls have to stick together” she grinned. I ran to my room and quickly wrote a good bye/thank bạn note to my family, then ran to the docks where the Brother mui xe boats were parked. I smirked and found Quicksilver’s boat. I put the keys in and sped off across the water.
“Yes” I nodded

“Are we in position, Draxx?” Revenge whispered.
“Yes. All positions secure.”
“Excellent.”
“Are bạn sure Grant won’t mind us doing this?” Draxx asked. “I mean this is his company.”
“What Grant doesn’t know, won’t hurt him.”
“That’s usually not true.”
Red Revenge laughed.
It took almost two hours for the assassin to appear. She slipped stealthily among the shadows.
“Target spotted.” Revenge said, picking up his gun and aiming it squarely at the feminine figure.
“On your signal.” Draxx radioed over.
Revenge aimed the sights, lined up the crosshairs, and pulled the trigger. The assassin began to scale the building.
“Now.” Revenge said, leaping from the roof of his company at the same minute.
