We sped through the forest and into the big square, where everybody was staring at the man on the 상단, 맨 위로 of the building.
"Who's that?" I whispered to Superboy.
"He's one of the managers of a Wayne Enterprises branch. Due to budget cuts, Bruce had to close this building." That was the longest sentence I had ever heard him speak.
"So he's killing himself?!" I exclaimed.
"Most likely.
We pushed through the crowd, up until the police started a perimeter. The 불, 화재 on the building was so hot it was making me sweat, even though I was well a few hundred feet away from it.
An officer pulled out a bullhorn from one of the cruisers. "Please calmly evacuate the premises. The building may collapse at any minute!"
I took the bullhorn from him. "Are there any people in the building?"
He shook his head, his eyes terrified. "This building was supposed to be demolished today."
"That's all I need to know."
With Superboy, we jumped over the police lines, ignoring their annoyed shouts. I stood in front of the building, my hands stretched above me.
If I knew how to use Fire, this would be done in a second.
The water from the rivers behind the city started to evolve in a wave form, coming at the building.
"Superboy! Get the man!" I shouted.
He crouched down, then jumped. He leaped over the building and grabbed the manager, in seconds.
The wave hit the building making the 불, 화재 cool.
"Phew," I panted. "That would've been nasty."
I watched Superboy help the manager into an EMT, and everybody had their eyes on us.
The manager glared at me through his cold eyes. "You just ruined my life!"
I glared back. "If it weren't for us, you'd wouldn't HAVE a life."
He didn't have a chance to continue, for the 구급차 was speeding away in a second.
Superboy looked at me awkwardly. "Everyone's staring at us," he thought.
Let's get out of here.
We ignored the crowd's cheers and started running back toward the forest, when a red-haired woman in a yellow suit flew right in front of us.
"Firestar!" I realized.
She smiled. "Thanks for helping with that building. I reckon you're here for something...?"
"Did 당신 know there's a new Avatar?" I asked.
She nodded. "She's an Airbender, but I haven't met her yet."
I tapped my chest, and my suit turned into my civilian clothing. I turned around, and showed her my Airbending 문신 on my back.
She gasped. "So you're the Avatar?"
I nodded. "But I need to learn Firebending; my, um....mentor won't teach me."
She thought for a bit. "Well, I don't have enough time to teach you, but I could give 당신 a Firebending scroll!"
"That's awesome!" This was getting easier 의해 the minute.
"Wait a minute," she said, before flying off into the sky.
About five 분 later, she came back with a tattered scroll.
She handed it to me. "It's kinda old, but it's still a scroll."
I opened it, awed. "These are all the Firebending moves?"
"Yep. But as 당신 get better, 당신 could create your own combos."
I hugged her, ignoring how her body was burning. "Thanks sooo much, Firestar."
"No problem." She bowed lightly, then flew up into the sky.
Superboy looked at the scroll closely. "So 당신 just have to follow the scroll," he mused.
I looked at the ground, remembering what Robin had said to me the night before.
"Come on." I looked back at the clearing. "We have what we need."
He nodded, but looked at the zoo entrance that was just a few blocks away.
I looked at it, smiling. "Have 당신 ever been to a zoo?"
He shook his head. "The only 동물 I've seen are the pictures Cadmus put in my head."
I laughed. "Then this is your lucky day. That is the coolest zoo in the world!"
So we headed for the zoo, laughing like children in an amusement park.
"Who's that?" I whispered to Superboy.
"He's one of the managers of a Wayne Enterprises branch. Due to budget cuts, Bruce had to close this building." That was the longest sentence I had ever heard him speak.

Dozens of reporters swarmed around the billionaire from New York, but he calmly walked past them all and into the limousine. A bodyguard turned around.
"Mr. Grant has no statement to make." he said in a heavy accent, and got into the car with the billionaire before it drove off.
"Target moving north."
"Nightwing?"
"What?"
"Did 당신 hear that?"
"Yeah. I told 당신 the target was moving north."
"It sounded like a girl said it."
"Do I sound like a girl to you?"
"No."
"Then keep an eye on the target, Batgirl. Nightwing out."
