Day 35: Bus 2
Wally woke as the intercom crackled to life and was surprised to find himself back in his room. The last thing he'd remembered was feeling relieved at finally beating off those dragonfly-lizard things. There'd been that weird intercom message, then... he wasn't quite sure what had happened after that, but he was certain it hadn't involved falling asleep. He'd be half-wondering if he'd dreamed the whole thing if it hadn't been for the nagging ache on his back and ankle from where he'd been bitten. A quick check revealed they'd been bandaged, apparently while he'd slept. He wondered if he had Kal to thank for that. Maybe he'd get the chance to ask later.
He jumped as the door swung open to admit the familiar face of the nurse who'd woken him yesterday. "Up already, are we?" she said cheerfully as she busied herself pulling out clothes. A blue shirt and a pair of jeans were passed to him. Wally blinked, he hadn't been here long, but he'd gotten the impression that the grey-and-smiley-face combo was standard.
"Does this mean I'm being released?" he asked, hope creeping into his voice.
The nurse turned back to him, pity etched on her features. "I'm afraid not, dear." She smiled brightly as she continued, "but today's when all the patients get a special field trip into town! Won't that be a treat!"
Wally stared at the clothes, his mind working away. He'd been trying to get into town and to a phone last night before he'd been attacked. But if they were going in today, this might be the perfect chance for him to contact the Justice League. He smiled warmly and thanked the nurse as she left to allow him to change, then happily allowed himself to be led to one of the buses, picking a seat about halfway down and sliding in to look out the window. It seemed like today was going to be brighter than yesterday, at least in the area of possible phone calls and rescues. About the only dark patch he could see was that the contents of his paper-bag breakfast were going to be nowhere near enough to fill the yawning pit that had taken the place of his stomach, and even that was tolerable when he was positive he wasn't going to be here much longer.
"And you say that time goes rushing by, but it seems so slow to me, and you see a blur around you fly, but it takes too long, it seems so slow to me..." he sung absently.
[Oh Captain, my Captain~]

He could understand the need for secrecy, concealing one's advantage. Back at home, mages did it all the time, hiding themselves from normal society's eyes. He suspected it was the same with Sheena's clan. "You mean because you're a ninja."

"Next time you see Raine, look at her wrist, but don't go asking her about it or being too obvious what you're looking at," she said. "Raine gets a little... weird about some things." Weird about personal things in one manner and even weirder about research things in an entirely different manner. Sheena wasn't sure which category exspheres fell into. Maybe it fell into both.
No, that couldn't be possible. The half-elf might explode if she had to deal with talking about something that she found fascinating, horrifying and way too personal all at once.
...was it bad that she kind of wanted to see what would happen?

"Okay, I'll keep that in mind." Now that was something he could do.

She looked out the window for a bit before speaking again. "So what did you and her talk about.
