[IC] Marvel/DC Crossover: Worlds Collide

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf nodded and said "we do...Artemis and I got Batman to put it in a few months ago...when we get done I'm getting some of my stuff for you. You need a little more edge style then the plain gear you have now. You wear more then armor girl"

[Jazz]

Riza looked to Wolf when she started talking about getting something for her so she basically wouldn't look so plain. "Well I never expected to go into public as I am. Haven't really done that since Ive been here. Plus I thought just having something plain and comfortable would work. Back home I had some nice clothes. It wasn't really plain. But just didn't want to over do it. Thought about trying to do some sort of at home job. Make something within the medical field. Like something to help those in physical therapy. Help them be able to walk, or use their limbs again." Riza thought out loud, though didn't seemed to notice the change in subject she made.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf looked at her and said as they walked into the bathroom locker room "wait, you don't expect to be a hero full time? Like your father?" She opened her locker and started throwing her clothes in there, still lookin at Riza

[Jazz]

Walking into the bathroom, Riza had seemed confused toward Wolf's question as they made it to the lockers where she set some of her things. Riza however just left hers on the bench and shrugged. "We were never full time heroes. We do have time for ourselves when there is something wrong. Plus if my dad was a full time hero, I dont think I would have been born. Sometimes once his mind is stuck to something he commits more than people expect him to. If he has more than one thing to commit to, he tries to split the time as equally as he can. I am kind of the same way. But like dad, I can get a little over protective, and make sure that others can choose. I got moms attitude swings and can be very much a worry wort."

She then widened her eyes and then closed her eyes, shaking her head. "Anyway," opening her eyes to look to Wolf. "I do want to be a little normal sometimes. But I guess that normal is working on new inventions and try to help people like dad does. He's actually been working on people being able to use a cleaner, more safer energy. It was actually based on an element he created. Though it was his father that seemed to have a idea of this new element. But was limited with the tech of his time." Riza shrugged. "So all in all. Not really. Though I doubt I could stay away from the hero gig for long. I kinda just started. My official somewhat unsupervised mission was the day that I went through that portal and came here. I can tell you though that Dad is probably still freaking out at times while mom is a bit more calmer than he is." Stark said with a cheeky grin.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf smiled listening to her talk about her parents. It was good for Riza to talk about them. So she couldn't forget anything about them. She wished she could remember her parents. Even just a small detail...

Wolf shook her head and slipped her black robe on from her locker and said "I understand. I guess I see you building things to help people...maybe limbs for those who lose theirs in battle or something like that" She headed back to the hot tub, turning the jets on and slipping her robe off. She slipped under the water and sighed, the heat and water jets feeling good against her tight muscles. She let herself slid farther under the water till only her eyes and nose were above the water surface.

After a few minutes she seemed to slip into a wake sleep, letting the water calm her body and mind. She closed her eyes and let her stress and worries slip away.

Wolf heard a scream and shouting, breaking wood and crashing. The smell of burning wood and fabric filled her nose. A voice close to her said "We have to get Key out of here. If Hydra gets their hands on it, our world and others will be in danger..." Another voice said "But how? The Key can only be handled by one who travels between worlds..." She felt arms wrap around her and she heard a different voice, one she knew, say "Give it to Margaret...she is the only one who can protect it..."

When Riza walked into the spa, she was see Wolf under the water all the way, no air bubbles coming from her mouth or nose.

[Jazz]

Riza had undressed slipping into the shower real quick to get cleaned before going to the hot tub next. Letting the hot water she had from the shower release some tension. Having cleaned up, she didn't dare use a towel of anything but have a couple of towels nearby so she could dry off after being in the hot tub a little while. Upon reaching the hot tub, Stark looked around in it, wondering where Wolf was, if she was in it at all until she found her. But underwater. Riza felt herself freaking out, not seeing what was to be any bubbles from her that she was breathing. Riza then did the one thing she felt needed to be done and pulled her face to the service after getting in, ignoring the heat, though somewhat failed. Pulling her head above water, she pat her cheek a little which trying to support her. "Hey. Wolf? Wolf! Come on wake up! Please don't make me use CPR." She called out though almost begged. She had no idea how long she had been like this but she checked for a heart beat. Maybe she was doing that whole trance thing. Either way Riza was freaking out.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf coughed hard, opening her eyes and saw Riza above her, both of them dripping wet. Wolf blinked then said "dang...that was...different..." She sat up, rubbing her head. "That's the closest I've gotten to my memories..." She looked at Riza and said "sorry about that...did I pass out or something?"

[Jazz]

Riza still held Wolf as best as she could while they were still in the hot tub. Seeing her coughing and opening her eyes, Stark was most relieved that she was alive and didn't have to perform CPR. Though now that her hand were on Wolf's arms, she seemed to noticed that Wolf said something about her memories. So decided to answer her question. "I guess so. But you scared the crap out of me. You were submerged underwater and not breathing." A little panicked but calming down a bit. "Trying to commit suicide or something?" She asked as a poor joke. But that was just how it seemed at first.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf chuckled and said "no...I was just trying to relax and I guess letting go of my stress helped open my mental block a little bit..." She sat up a little so Riza could sit down. "I didn't see anything...but I hear and smelled and felt things. It was very strange"

[Jazz]

Riza sat down, taking a breath to calm down, leaning against the wall of the hot tub. She listened to her, seeming to be interested as she was told about how Wolf could hear, smell and feel things within a memory that he mind tried to block out. "Wow. I never heard anything like that before. What did you see?" She asked Wolf.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf shook her head and said "That's the thing...I didn't see anything. Its almost like my other senses remember but my eyes don't want to...its really weird..." She sighed and leaned against the wall and said "I was so close...I just wish I knew what to do to push it all the way.." She paused then said "Does the name Margaret mean anything to you?"

[Jazz]

The young Stark hummed, thinking about that was said and how weird it seemed to Wolf. Though a name seemed to get her to think even more before shrugging. "Not really but I could check anything with what records Jarvis has. Never know but I am sure there are quite a bit of Margaret's out there where im from." Feeling that she was going to completely melt in the hot tub, Riza stands up before shivering. "Come on. If we stay here, they might think we died in the room or something." Though the thought of them melting in a hot tub seemed to make her giggle. She then got out of the tub before stopping where Wolf was at the tub.
"No worries. Let's focus on the fun before we go mad with overthinking. And that alone is normally hard for me to do. Plus you were all giddy with trying to get me to look alive and like a female so I am holding you to it before I regret anything." Riza said to Wolf like it was natural for her to speak like so. Her focus right now was to dry off and get dressed before possibly being dragged somewhere else that might involve clothing.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf smiled and said "that's right...I better call Artemis and Meg for help too...being raised with Bruce Wayne did have its perks...like traveling and getting a lot of cool clothes." She jumped out and grabbed her towel, drying off as they walked. Riza would notice along with her toned body she had a lot of scars on her arms and legs, her suit hiding the ones on her body.

[Jazz]

Riza sat on the bench when she was dressed, having heard Wolf talk about how she wanted Artemis and Meg to come help out. She was feeling the slight dread in her stomach as she was thinking of some sort of girls day out. Sent shivers down her spine. "Rich and a business man? I'm getting that that would also be the one known as Batman." She pointed out, knowing all too well of the signs of someone with such good gear that either Bat's made it or bought it and made it suit his needs in combat. She knew it for she was like that, only buying parts to make what she needed, like the suits, her medical projects. Though changed it quickly when she thought of the clothing again. "I refuse to wear a dress and a short skirt unless there is shorts underneath. I also refuse the color pink. That is all." She told her flat out so she wouldn't be stuck in something like what she mentioned.

Though watching her get dressed, noticed the scars that were along her body that she noticed had been hidden due to the suit and clothing she wore. "Quite the collection you have. Training and combat?" She asked suddenly, though seemed to be something that Riza noticed she said though didn't try to rant at herself for saying it, just let it go to see what she would do. "They suit you though. Shows that your a fighter, one that won't back done, and scar don't phase you. I have a few myself. Either from an accident in the workshop or training. A friend of mine always told me that scars say much about what kind of person they are if you know maybe a few facts. That they are a fighter. If shown proudly in a certain way, tells someone that you aren't phased what people will think." She paused have leaned back a little. "He was in the army. Served his time and all."

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf paused, her hand resting on one of the scars. "I wouldn't say they were from training...um, ya, don't worry, no shirts or dresses without shorts..." Wolf got quiet as they headed out of the locker room and she pulled her cell to text the other girls. "Um, why don't you head to the commons room...I forgot something in my room" She walked away, keeping her head down.

Artemis and Meg were waiting in the commons room, both wearing every day clothing. Artemis was searching on the map saying "Where should we go? Wolf send something about updating Riza's clothes for while she's here..."

[Jazz]

Riza felt that she had done something to upset Wolf, noticing her change when they headed off. Hearing her request to go to the commons, Riza felt she should say something but Wolf kept walking with her head down. The Stark sighed before going off to the commons. "Great...me and my lack of social skills..." She grumbled.

Meg looked with Artemis on the map of where to go and with getting a text about Riza's clothes, being asked about any ideas. "Well there is some clothing stores within Happy Harbor. O! Or we could go to the mall! Maybe browse around."

"A mall? Well thats sounds interesting. Can't be that different, right?" A new voice joined in. Meg'aan looked over to see Riza entering the commons and overheard about a mall. Coming over to sit on the couch with a backpack in hand that was a little more colorful than her actual clothing. "Wolf said she would be here in a minute. Though I have a feeling I may have said something I probably shouldn't." She added, seemed to look a little down about it."

[MegaraFoxfire]

Artemis looked up and said "Wolf? Nothing normally upsets her...wait, you guys were in the locker room?"

Wolf sat on her bed, taking a deep breath as she rubbed her arm. She hadn't thought about her scars in a long time, not normally looking in a mirror out of habit. She closed her eyes and said "He can't find you now...Batman made sure of that...its alright Wolf...just breath..."

[Jazz]

Riza smiled shyly. "Guilty. We thought a nice shower would do the trick to help calm ourselves about the day and then Wolf brought up the fact that there was a hot tub so we soaked to relieve what tensions that the shower didn't. I think we almost became puddles at one point." Riza giggled then before sitting up though leaned over. "So am I just to ride this out while you have fun dressing me up? cause no matter how many times I've gone to scout, I still have no idea where every store is."

Meg'aan giggled. "Yeah. I'm glad Wolf and Artemis asked Batman for one. But as for shopping, we could have some fun besides just being in the stores. Though I wonder what the boys are going to do for the day."

Riza shrugged. "I normally stay in my lab working on new things or recent projects. I don't go out much. Back home I was well known so privacy was rare without being swarmed or anything like that, so I was either with family or in my lab."

[MegaraFoxfire]

Artemis smirked and said "You sound like Robin on his...loner days...wait a sec. Riza, you didn't happen to ask about Wolf's scars did you?" When Riza nodded Artemis sighed. "We should have given you a heads up...she got a lot of them from one mission...from a guy named Ra's al Ghul. It didn't end well and Batman nearly went nuts when we finally found her..."

[Jazz]

Riza seemed to be a little confused till she felt her back tense when Artemis changed from comparing her to Robin to asking if Riza asked about Wolf's scars. She shrugged. "Kinda-" Though before she could explain herself she just listened to Artemis when she explained it. Riza leaned back half of her pack on the back of the couch to her butt near the edge of the seat. Her hands in her pockets as her shoulders rose and her head ducked and lowered. "...I didn't expect her to answer. Most scars are personal and I only told her that they suited her. Telling her what my uncle told me about those who have scars. That their fighters...Should've just kept my mouth shut..." Riza mumbled, sounds irritated and upset. Meg'aan moved over to sit on the other side of Riza. "It's okay. We should've said something about it. We know you care about her too."
