"You would not risk such a plan" he glared at her, "there is still a very high probability of losing your friend."

"I think you forget...we're human. We do high risk stuff all the time. We will do everything in our power to rip your little blue ass off of Nightwing. And if that means taking the high risk road. Then we'll take it. So, argue all you want but in the end, it's not really my call. After all, Batman has power of attorney on Nightwing regarding his medical health..."

"Either way, you're coming off of Nightwing one way or another. Now unless you have something interesting to talk about, I would much like to continue reading my book. If I'm going to be put on guard duty, I might as well get some reading done during it." The gang were going to head out and locate the ships. A few of them were staying behind to guard Nightwing.

"This is Aqua lad, reporting in."
Ciara headed over to the computer and slipped on the head set, "This is String Ray, go ahead."
"We've hit another dead end."
"Roger that, sending you the next location. How's the Sting Ray fly?" She tapped away at the keyboard, a red x showing up on a world map.
"The controls took awhile as this ship was designed for you to fly it but I appreciate you lending it out for this mission, Princess."
"Aqua Lad, what did I say about calling me-"
"Of course. Aqua Lad out."
Robin and the gang had compiled a list of areas with the highest rate of missing teenagers and with the added factor that the Reach seemed to like hiding in the ocean, it didn't take long to make the list. Missing teens in cities near the water.
Ciara put down the headset and sighed. It had become a little awkward between her and Pietro. It was mostly her fault. She'd realized just how much more healing she had from the abuse she'd been put through. She thought it was fine but after seeing Pietro being kissed by that drunk girl...
She'd edged her cot closer to his but hadn't really talked to him since that night. She kept making big meals and other things but she just didn't know what to do... So she kept to herself.

Pietro had been spending a lot of time just watching TV or checking out the neighborhood. Honestly he'd been putting some serious consideration into heading back to Genosha for the time being but he wasn't sure yet.
"Ciara?" the speedster spoke as he approached her, "got a minute?"

She jumped, having been engrossed in a book titled, " 8 Keys to Safe Trauma Recovery: Take-Charge Strategies to Empower Your Healing" . She quickly hid the book behind her back. "Oh, Pietro... You startled me." She forced herself to smile a little. It wasn't that she wasn't happy to see him, it was that fact she was feeling rather lost in her road to recovery and had withdrawn herself from her support groups.
"What's up?"

Pietro pulled a chair up next to her, "Alright. Look... things have been a little, uh... awkward between us. I know you've been through some rough stuff but it's also been kind tough on me to. I mean, you keep saying you're fine so I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to believe-even so I never really pegged you as the jealous type so that was weird." he scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "... I... I'm not really sure where I was going with this..."

Ciara looked down at her lap and took a deep breath, "You're right it has been awkward between us and I'm afraid that's my fault. I kept saying that I was fine because, I guess I felt if I kept saying it, that everything would be fine.
It wasn't till I saw that girl kiss you that I realized, "She curled her hands into balls, "that I'm not alright... The scars I was left with were deeper than I could ever imagine. And it wasn't fair to take out that pain on you. You've done nothing but be supportive and caring." She pulled the book back out from behind her back, finding no need to hid it.
"I'm sorry... You deserve better."

Pietro let out a light chuckle, "me?" he asked, "deserve better than you? Have you met yourself?" he gave her a look, "and have you met me? The guy who's way more messed up than you will ever be. You have every reason to react the way you did, I'm the idiot who's having trouble processing."

Ciara couldn't but real smile a bit, "You don't give yourself enough credit. When you decide to put your mind to you, you can be rather smart and charming and very clever. Perhaps, having a word with my Dad might help? He may be single but he's very good at explaining such things."

Pietro gave her an odd look, "Yeah... I'm gonna talk to big blue, claws and a fangs about me and his daughter. That'll go over well."

"Rrrrrrright..." She rubbed that back of her head. " I forgot how that must be awkward. I've always been able to talk to Big Blue about anything. Boys, fears... why guys enjoy burping in each other's presence."

"Yeah. After he explained that I enjoyed those moments more... I even won a couple of those... I just meant that he'd be able to give you some quick advice on... what to expect while I'm going through all this... I'm sorry I've been rather distant. I've been feeling kind down and stuff." She rubbed the back of her head awkwardly.

Pietro nodded a little, thinking a moment, "... Do you remember when you were trying to teach me math?" he asked, "and there were some things that I just couldn't wrap my head around. Why the formulas do what they do, how it works out to some miraculous number. It's still all jibberish to me. So we decided that sometimes knowing why isn't the most important thing, it's just knowing which formula to use when and accepting it. Well... I don't really understand what you're going through, I mean I know it's rough but I don't think I'll ever really get it." he looked at her, "so... just tell me what I need to do to help you through this, and we'll make it from there."

Ciara blushed lightly and slipped into his lap, resting her head against the front of his shoulder, "Be here for me... Be patient with me and keep being the amazing boyfriend that you've always been. There will be times where I'll seem distant and it's not because I don't love you; because you had done nothing but make me the happiest girl in the world, but because I'm dealing with some raw emotions and memories..."

"Alright. Fair enough." Ciara cupped the side of his face and stared into his eyes, "Gods, I love you." She reached up and kissed him softly.

When the team returned, Ciara was fast asleep, snuggled up to Pietro on the couch as they guarded Nightwing. She seemed to be talking in her sleep, a small smile on her face as she dreamed. "Mmm...Pietro, you're going to make the children late for school...Aw did someone fall down?" She mumbled softly.

Pietro stroked her hair, feeling weary himself but he wasn't going to fall asleep with Nightwing there at risk.
While Ciara slept, the crew sent the scientist at work with Nightwing.

Ciara sat up after the sound of falling metal awoke her. "Mhm? what?" She sat up, raising her hand, a wall of water stakes appeared behind her. She blinked, "Who are you?" She asked refering to the alien woman who had dropped the metal tray.
"She is the head scientist for the Reach." Aqua Lad's voice replied, he was standing against a pillar nearby, his arms crossed.
"When did you all get back?"
"A few hours ago. We made a great deal of noise, I'm surprised you only woke up now." Miss Martian thought. "All clear on the roof."
"Sorry... I've been a little drained the last couple of days..." She rubbed her neck and yawned, then play punched Pietro's arm, "I told you to wake me if I dozed off."

Pietro shrugged, "you were tired, besides, I didn't let anything bad happen."
