Chapter 36 Closure

  “That cloak looks good on you.” Stephanie said as she wore her Spoiler outfit. I smiled. “Yep this is what I speerday making.” She looked at me in fusion. “You made that? Like tailored it?” I ughed again. “No. I added the pstic yer of ents to it.” I pulled the cloak to the side and showed her. “It does a bunch of things but the main one is levitation magic. It was expehough… There’s a sheet of pstic worth ten thousand dolrs floating over the Atntic o right now.”

  She ughed thinking it was a joke but my dead stare in the dire the pstic flew off let her know I wasn’t lying. She asked. “So where are we going on our date?” I opened a portal to the entrance of titans tower. She froze and I had to grab her hand before she finally followed through.

  I clicked the buzzer and I’m ected to the vision of Nightwing oher side. Cool this will make things easier. “Is Tim in?” A whooshing sound of a on passing by his head as he responded. “Yea he’s here. What is this about?” They really shouldn’t have a visible camera in their room. “We’ll be right up.”

  I made a portal into the room he was in. Portals didn't work like in the movies. I couldn't just think of a name and open a portal to that person. I o have been in that location before. Normally you wouldn’t be able to ect a video or picture with a location but you could if it was an accurate depi of the room nearby. It also increased the mana cost tremendously but it was only like five floors up. We entered as I felt the dip in my mana from not using the teleportation magic correctly.

  The two people fighting were her than Nightwing and Robin. Both stopped mid fight to look at us. I looked Tim dead in his eyes before saying. “Alright. You and Spoiler have a lot to talk about. I'll be heading out t back a pizza.” Without another word I flee the se. I port out and almost drop from ana. I order the pizza and wait for it to cook and recharge my mana before p ba.

  No one is iraining room. I head to the door but it’s an automatic thing that opens when someoh either a unicator or some other piece of tech gets close. I called out. “Any help with the door?” For a brief moment I think I might o port down to the bottom before the door opens. I follow the hallway to aor and go up to where they were.

  Surprisingly there weren’t many people around. The Titans tower should have like twenty to thirty residents but I only see five. It must be Nightwings group as the only ones iht now the other four teams must be out on missions. More likely Nightwings team got stu case help was needed by the other teams out.

  I feel really silly five pizzas now. “Hey you get that sorted out?” I ask the two sittio each other watg aeam fight an army of robots. Looks like a H.I.V.E base they’re taking down. I reize Jason Todd, Robin and Wirl. The Atntean and a metahuman? I couldn’t tell who he was, just looked like a normal kid to me without his e.

  “Pepperoni here, meat lovers, extra cheese, vegetarian and vegan pizza from top to bottom.” I said as I put the pizza’s down. They’re young kids and as expected one goes for the vegetarian while the oes for the vegan. I pop the pepperoni and sit dowo Stephanie.

  I should have grabbed ptes, I thought as I caught hot cheese dripping off the pizza almost ruining my new cloak. I ged my hair to the normal blonde color st night so the room wasn’t full of bck haired boys. I asked again. “So Robin expin himself. We good Steph?”

  She took a bite out of her pizza. “Yea we’re good. Thank you for this. I needed closure.” I fihe pizza and told Tim. “No one cares that yay. This isn’t the eighties anymore. You should have told Steph two years ago when you got that crush on the pink haired boy you thought was a girl at first.”

  “All the way back then!?” Stephanie asked and I could only ugh as I remembered she was mad at him because she also thought he was a girl and was jealous. It might have even been before that as it was the first time in the new ics that showed him as anything more than straight. I’m gd they didn’t go the bisexual route with him this time.

  This might have seemed like an odd pce t someone on a date but it made sense in my mind. It would let her know for sure that I was telling the truth and close a potential rift betweewo of them for as long as Tim hid that fact from Steph. I mime looking at a watch saying. “Alright folks best to mosey on out of here. We still have dio head to.”

  I open another portal back to about a block away from the restaurant. This is the fancier pce you needed a reservation to get into. At least you did if you didn’t tip the staff a thousand dolrs to mispeone else for that night. We made it a few steps before her phoarted pinging her.

  “Again!? we go on a date without something happening?”

  SpoilerAlright so a lot of people are asking why the protagonist is stealing when he had the moo pay for things. Because he , it's super easy to do and why waste money when you just take it with there being no ce of being caught. Also I find it strange you guys care about him stealing wheerally sawed a man's head off because it was seds faster to do that then figure out how to steal the colr. Like killing is fi stealing is somehow worse? He pced a tracker on someone so he could hunt them down and kill them ter when his girlfriend wasn't around to see it then looks around his apartment for ing supplies to get blood out of his robe.

  The protagonist isn't a good guy. He likes heroes and he likes vilins. He kills for a reasoeals for a reason. The average daily ine of a jewelry store is over 30k. He didn't even steal what they'd make in a single day's worth of gems. The jewelry store owner wont eveer the amount stolen as more than a blip and that's if they weren't insured which I'm pretty sure(not positive) they o be in order to ruore. You say the employee might be fired or their could be other repercussions but once again the protagonist has killed multiple people.

  The protagonist has goals. One is to be one of the richest people on the p and spending 3% of your worth on something you get for free is incredibly short sighted. He spent twenty minutes of his day to save 30k ahe gems he needed anyways. When he's rag in billions of dolrs do you think he'd steal the gems? Probably not (he might still do it for fun), because it wouldn't be worth his time to do. He'd buy the gems and have them shipped to wherever they're needed. Or more likely have someone else buy mems so he wouldn't o. (which SHIELD is in the process of doing. He just wao make his cloak first.)
