[INDENT][indent]Rose's precognition was going off like crazy. Everything around her was being percieved as a threat as she turned from one direction to the next, the energy blade in her hands swinging wildly as she held her back firmly against the wall. Despite being blind, her powers were still able to provide her with a view into the world as she ducked under one of Clayface's apologetic attacks before slashing wildly at the Warden's severed vine. Suddenly something crushed the vine as Rose felt the impact before her legs were sprayed by whatever fluid might have been within the former extremity. 

Lizard's voice filled her ear as Rose steadied her blade. She couldn't recall whether Lizard had been warped by Extant but her precognition had triggered leading her to believe for the time being at least, she was safe. Suddenly she was hoisted into the air as Lizard took a hold of her and carried the now elderly Rose to another room. 

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Here?"[/B][/COLOR] Rose asked, questioning Lizard's phrasing. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Where the [i]fuck[/i] is here, Jessica [i]dear[/i]?"[/B][/COLOR] She asked, but the hiss of the room's automated doors informed Rose that Lizard was already gone. The door hissed open again moments later as the room was filled with a loud voice. Aged like her own, this voice belonged to a male as it bellowed about being attacked by a reptile, suggesting that once again Lizard was herding her teammates to safety.

The voice suddenly asked a question which left no doubt in Rose's mind as to who had joined her in the room.

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"I always assumed it was because you were so [i]damn[/i] ugly [i]dearie[/i]."[/B][/COLOR] Rose sneered before it dawned on her that she had let another affectionate term slip from her mouth. 

[color=0072bc]"Who're you calling ugly? I don't even know what I look like!"[/color] Question shouted in a rare moment of comprehension... Only to mutter [color=0072bc]"Do I?"[/color] moments later, before staring blankly ahead once more.

Even the ever thorned Rose felt a rare moment of sympathy for the Question's memory loss. Of the Leaguers she had interacted with, he was the one she held the most respect for after the Bat. The Question wasn't afraid to, well question everything around him, and for that reason he saw through the black and white of the world and dove into the shades of grey she had lived her life tangled within.

A small hiss echoed throughout the room as Rose uncharacteristically de-activated her energy sword, carefully returning the hilt to her hip as she guided herself towards Question's voice, one hand on the wall as she moved slowly towards the detective.

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"I [I]damn[/I] well don't know why I'm saying this but,"[/B][/COLOR] Rose paused, feeling around for the Question before her fingers brushed against the trenchcoat. Finding his shoulder, Rose gave it a squeeze as she continued talking. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"I think the mask if kind of hot. In a [I]fucked[/I] up way, of course [i]dear[/i]."[/B][/COLOR] She said with a small smile as her hand traced his featureless face. 

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"So, if anyone, but me, calls you ugly. Punch them the [I]fuck[/I] out."[/B][/COLOR] Rose added with a smile.

[color=0072bc][i]'Why's this woman getting so close to me? ... What's a woman? Wait, no, I know what they are.'[/i][/color] The faceless detective thought to himself, barely listening to what Rose was saying. Though he did catch the last part, and allowed himself to smile at that. 

[color=0072bc]"Always do."[/color] He replied, before his vision lost focus once more and he pondered to himself [color=0072bc]"wait, punch them?"[/color]

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Yes [i]dearie[/i]."[/B][/COLOR] Rose said as she leaned on Question. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Punch them, right square in the jaw."[/B][/COLOR] She explained, taking a hold of Question's hand and swinging his arm in the motion of a punch. 

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"And if that doesn't work, punch them in the [i]fuckin'[/i] balls [i]dear[/i]."[/B][/COLOR] Rose added, turning her blinded eyes towards Question. Suddenly an alarm echoed through the room, finally cuing in Rose that Lizard had deposited the duo in the monitor room.

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Computer, what is the nature of the alarm?"[/B][/COLOR] Rose asked, leaving Question's side as her hand instinctively fell to her blade's hilt. 

[COLOR=PALEGREEN][B]"Proximity alarm, unknown Kryptonian approaching."[/B][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Computer,"[/B][/COLOR] Rose stated. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Analyze, compare to all known Kryptonians, one of those [I]damn[/I] invulnerable aliens doesn't just show up."[/B][/COLOR]

[COLOR=PALEGREEN][B]"DNA is half human. Logical conclusion, Supergirl, daughter of Superman."[/B][/COLOR] The computer stated as Rose fumbled around for an intercom button before becoming frustrated and slamming the keyboard.

[COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Computer, [i]fuckin'[/i] broadcast this for me."[/B][/COLOR] Rose ordered as a beep acknowledged the request. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Supergirl [i]dear[/i], this is Ravager, we're under [i]fuckin'[/i] attack by a mystical being known as Extant. Any aid you can provide would be [i]damn[/i] well appreciated [i]dearie[/i]."[/B][/COLOR][/INDENT][/INDENT]
