Batgirl Begins (dbspock/WendyTheRed)

Barbara was doing her best to keep a straight face but Sam laughing and whistling was really too much and she started to giggle. Even so, a shiver ran down her spine when Dave breathed on her ear though she wasn't sure if he'd notice her reaction or not. Still, she kept enough focus to place her hand on Sam's shoulder and she felt it when Sam started to tip over. She did her best to simply ride it out as Sam toppled.

She saw how Dave was going to faceplant in Sam's belly and hoped he didn't knock the air out of her. For herself, she just concentrated on trying to go down with at least a little grace and not faceplanting on anyone or elbowing or kneeing someone on accident. She smirked as she realized John was on bottom and raised her head long enough to blow her hair out of her face and grin. "Dave and I win!"
 
If Dave noticed her reaction to his breathing in her ear, he gave no sign of it. Sam was a bit out of breath after her tumble, but it was hard to tell if it was because Dave knocked the wind out of her, she was laughing too hard, or Babs was still pinching her nose shut. Clearly losing the game didn't hinder Sam's self esteem at all. "You can let go of my nose now." Sam complained, though she didn't say a word about Dave's hand on her butt.

Babs didn't elbow or knee or faceplant anyone...she just smothered John with her boobs a bit, though he made no complaint even when she didn't get up right away,,,and she really couldn't as Dave was on top of the pile. For his part, Dave didn't move for a bit, hardly believing he actually won, until Chloe, laughing almost as hard as Sam, got up and helped him to his feet.

"Yeah...we won. And I helped." Dave realized as he recalled how he and Babs had worked together pushing Sam over. He held out his hand to Babs, palm up, hoping she would high five him in return.
 
She laughed and let go of Sam's nose, making a show of wiping her hand off. "You're right though I will miss your nasally voice Sam." She grinned at Sam, then glanced around, noticing Dave's hand was still on her butt and she hadn't asked him to remove it. She decided not to comment on it and risk embarrassing either one of them.

She grinned as Dave seemed to take in the victory and got up when Chloe helped him up, careful not to accidentally knee John or something as she stood. She saw Dave's palm out and high fived him with a wide smile. "You sure did Dave. Thanks, couldn't have done it without you." She winked at him then turned to offer John and Sam help up if they wanted it, holding out her hands to them with a questioning look.
 
Sam just stuck her tongue out in response, but Dave grinned. "Hey...you know how to get it back." He pointed out as he high fived Babs, grinning even wider as she accepted it. "We made a great time." He realized as they recalled they worked together to topple Sam.

Sam shook her head as Babs helped her to her feet. "Don't get used to it, you two. Next time, Dave's going to be my partner." She declared, and Dave's grin got even wider. No one except Chloe had ever wanted him as a partner before.

If John noticed Babs hand, he gave no sign of it as he rose to his feet. He glanced between the three, then looked towards the van. They had a schedule to keep, and he was already running a bit behind, but he wasn't sure how to extricate them both from the gathering without raising suspicion and potentially violating Saras guidance.
 
She smirked at his comment then nodded her agreement when he said they made a great team. She grinned at Sam's reply. "Well, we might have to spar to see which of us gets Dave or something." she replied in a joking tone to Sam's comment. She noticed John ignoring her hand and wondered if he was mad at her. Again. She definitely couldn't understand him or his moods and she decided not to try for now. She'd just do her best not to provoke him, though she had little faith in that since she hadn't been trying but he'd seemed to be in a mood with her off and on all day long.

She saw John's look towards the van and guessed what he was thinking. She frowned softly as she had wanted to watch a movie with the others but she also knew she'd need to make sacrifices and this was a relatively small one. "I need to get going actually, I'm sorry. John and I have some errands to run and I figure we'd better get them over with before it gets too much later."
 
"Challenge accepted." Sam replied with a grim nod, but she only managed to keep a straight face for a few seconds before she started giggle again.

Sam nodded with a bit of a sigh and a glance at John. She'd been hoping to watch a movie with him as well, but maybe she could get Babs to bring him to another training session that might go into a movie. "Well, glad you could come." She said as she moved forward to give Babs a hug.

Chloe looked at the two, a bit confused. She'd gotten a ride here from Babs, and she hadn't said a word about not coming back with her. "Uhhhh...." Chloe began, not sure what to say as John turned and began to head for his van before Sam jogged a bit to catch up to him. She laid a hand on his arm to stop him and they began to talk quietly.
 
She hugged Sam back with a smile, not missing the look she had given John. She watched as Sam jogged after John then turned to look at Chloe. She stepped closer and whispered to Chloe. "I need to get more training, maybe John would let you come along or something. If not, I'll take you home." She winked at Chloe then trotted over to Sam and John.

"So, John, I either need to give Chloe a ride home or she is coming with us to our errand." She shrugged, pretty sure John would insist she take Chloe home and not reveal the dojo to her. She also flushed as she suddenly realized that if John accepted Chloe coming, Chloe would see that she trained in the nude.
 
"Come along? Seriously?" Chloe's eyes lit up at that prospect and watched hopefully as Babs went over to John and Sam.

Sam gave John a quick hug goodbye. The man froze and didn't return it, but that didn't seem to bother Sam as she went back over to Dave and Chloe. Once Babs had joined him, John turned to leave only to stop when she started speaking. He frowned and looked back at Chloe thoughtfully, and when the blonde waved to him with a broad smile he turned back to Babs. "Have you told her what our 'errand' is?" he asked. He wasn't going to be the one to reveal such a thing to the blonde, but he suspected Babs wouldn't be asking if Chloe wasn't already in on it. So this was another test, and John had to try and predict how Sara would want him to behave.

"If she agrees to be blindfolded, she can come with us." John finally determined. Sara trusted Babs, and Babs trusted Chloe, so John supposed in a weird way he trusted Chloe as well. And a potential ally in the war was not something one easily turned down.
 
She watched Sam go and looked from her to John. She saw how he was giving Chloe a thoughtful look which gave her a bit of hope. She'd thought he'd dismiss the idea out of hand. "Yes. And no. She knows my plans, what I'm working towards. She knows you're helping me but she doesn't know all the details." She blushed slightly as she remembered the whole nudity thing. She nodded at his demand, under the circumstances it was actually quite reasonable.

"Alright, I'll talk to her." She paused for a moment. "Thank you John. And Sara has met Chloe. She held her in a grip that about broke her arm when we had a brief uhhhh...scuffle over my phone." She hastened to add, just in case. "I think Sara was testing both of us and there weren't any hard feelings."

She smiled at him and quickly returned to Chloe. She leaned close and whispered in her ear. "You can come but you have to be blindfolded. We're basically going to a secret base." She winked at Chloe then sighed. "Also, you're going to discover that I uhhh...have to prove my determination." She flushed and almost told Chloe what that meant but for perhaps the first time in her life, Babs chickened out. "Well?"
 
John nodded at Babs answer. So he wouldn't be revealing any secrets that Chloe didn't already know, except for what the dojo looked like, and that wasn't a huge secret. He wasn't surprised Chloe didn't know all the details. He and Babs had already done a lot together, and there hadn't really been time to fully brief Chloe. He nodded once again as Babs thanked him, and he had a feeling he made the right call, though he smirked a bit as Babs mentioned Sara putting Chloe in an arm bar. He'd been on the receiving end of that himself a few times. "Sara didn't mention anything about that to me during the briefing, so she didn't think it was relevant. So I agree, no hard feelings on Sara's part at least. I'd imagine she was impressed Chloe tried to help you."

Chloe looked over at Babs curiously...and hopefully...when she came over, and she smiled excitedly when Babs said she could come. And her smile only widened when Babs mentioned the blindfold. "Seriously?" She asked, her eyes wide. "That's like out of a spy movie or something. Cool." Clearly she trusted Babs enough that the idea of being blindfolded and put in a van with a strange guy and going to an unknown destination didn't bother her. She was excited enough that she didn't notice Babs reluctance, so she just nodded when Babs said she had to prove herself. Chloe thought she was talking about some form of strenuous exercise.
 
She nodded her reply to John. "I think she was impressed. I mean, Chloe didn't stand a chance, but she tried anyway and I think she knew she didn't have a chance. And no, no hard feelings. Like I said, I think Sara was testing us." She chuckled. "I think Chloe did better in that test than I did. But, she did agree to training so..." She shrugged.

She grinned at Chloe's enthusiasm. "Well, like I said, secret base. Anyway, I'll be there, obviously." She once more thought about warning Chloe but once more she sort of chickened out. She motioned for her to follow and moved over to John. "So, shall I follow you in my car or do you want to drop my car off first?" She figured John was impatient to get going but she wasn't sure how he'd decide on this situation.
 
"Well, impressed enough not to instruct me to avoid Chloe." John determined. With Sara, sometimes lack of a mention was the highest form of praise. He raised an eyebrow when Babs claimed Chloe had done better than she did. He judged that unlikely, but he hadn't seen it, so he couldn't really form an opinion. His gaze then flickered to Chloe as Babs brought up the point about the car. The red head sure knew how to complicate things.

John thought through his options for a moment. "Drive your car to your place, then we can go from there." He determined as his eyes flickered back to Chloe. If Sara could test her, so could he. "Chloe can ride with me." He declared, curious if the blonde would chicken out at the prospect of riding with a stranger, or at being stuck somewhere with no easy way to leave. But if Chloe considered either of those scenarios, she gave no sign of it as she simply nodded eagerly. John wasn't sure if it was because she didn't realize the potential danger, or trusted him to protect her from it. He found he rather liked the second option, so he decided to go with that...and not to tell Sara the results of his little ploy.
 
She nodded to his reply and saw the skepticism on his face when she said she thought maybe Chloe did better. She didn't know how to explain her feeling so she just let it go. "Alright, to my place it is." She nodded to him and turned to look at Chloe when John said she could ride with him. She didn't seem worried though Barbara had hoped to work up the nerve to tell her about the nakedness thing on the drive over and this would narrow that window down. She nodded and walked over to give Sam, and then Dave, a hug before she jogged to her car.

The drive wasn't too bad, though her thoughts were on the training and how Chloe would react and how she should warn her. She pulled up in her dad's driveway and debated going in to say hi but thought that'd only complicate things. She got out of her car, made sure it was locked, then made her way to John's van. She climbed in to either the front or the back, depending on where Chloe was and called out to John. "Ready to go. Oh, and uhh...I haven't told Chloe yet about the uhhhh...state I train in."
 
Sam, naturally, had no issue with returning Babs hug, clearly she had no problem with the fact she and Dave hand ganged up on her to make her lose the game. Dave, however, was more than a bit surprised and stiffened a bit before he awkwardly returned the hug. "We won." He whispered quietly in her ear so Sam wouldn't hear. He didn't want to brag but he was still proud of his unexpected accomplishment.

Chloe was sitting in the front passenger seat, so they both turned to face Babs when she climbed in and spoke. Chloe looked between the two of them, a bit confused, but John nodded, seeing the potential complication. "Show her." John instructed her, then nodded to a compartment in the back. Then there's a bag in there. Put it over her head." John then turned to Chloe. "Probably best if you ride in the back for the next part. Could raise suspicion if someone saw you." Chloe nodded in understanding and moved in the back with Babs. "Have you SEEN the console? It's awesome." Chloe whispered as she looked back at the dashboard and all the buttons she was dying to push.
 
She grinned at Dave's reaction to her hug and his whisper. She quietly whispered back. "We did. Thank you Dave. Couldn't have done it without you." She actually meant it but she also wanted him to hear it. She patted his shoulder and winked before she headed out with John and Chloe.

She swallowed when John said to show her. Barbara nodded when she asked about the console. "Mmhmm. Not my first time in this bag. Alright...so..." She hesitated then began to disrobe, starting with her shoes and socks. "So, I don't know if I'm right or not, but I think nearly everything that happens when I'm with John is training or a test. I think he went through it too and I think Sara wants to see if I'm committed or not." She figured John would interject if he wanted to.

She tugged off her shirt, then her shorts and after a brief hesitation, removed her bra and began to wiggle out of her panties. "For the first week or so, I have to train nude. I should have told you but I chickened out. I think it's to see if I'm willing to do whatever it takes to keep training and to see if I can ignore distractions while training."

Her eyes dart to the front seat as she grabs the bag for Chloe's head. "And maybe John's training is still ongoing too and Sara wants to make sure he too can ignore distractions. That said, I don't think I'm much of a distraction for him." She lifted the bag and if Chloe didn't object she'd slide it gently over her head. "We're good to go John."
 
If possible, Dave's grin got even wider at not only her words, but her actions. He actually managed not to flinch when Babs patted his shoulder, though his eyes widened once more when Sam asked if he still wanted to stick around and watch a movie with her.

Chloe just nodded when Babs reminded her it wasn't her first training session, and she looked between the two of them a bit confused by their conversation. She felt like she was missing a lot of subtext here. Chloe didn't think anything of Babs removing her shoes and socks. Some dojos required it from what she'd heard, so Chloe followed her lead and began to remove her shoes as well. Chloe nodded when Babs mentioned she had to undergo some sort of test of her commitment...that wasn't surprising, especially after what Babs had gone through the first night, what with waiting on a deserted street for hours and all.

John had nothing to add as Babs removed her shirt, and Chloe's eyes widened a bit...but she still didn't get the fill meaning behind Bab's actions. She thought she was changing into some sort of training outfit. A bit odd with a guy in the car who could watch, but not entirely surprising coming from Babs. Chloe, of course, had nothing to change into so she didn't follow Babs lead on that score. So the shorts wasn't a surprise, though her eyes widened once again as Babs removed her bra. "Uhhhh..." Chloe felt the urge to say something at this point, but she had no idea what, and Chloe was soon dumbstruck as Babs removed her last item of clothing. Chloe glanced over at John, who was indeed watching...but not leering. Chloe couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she didn't get the sense that, even nude, Babs was in any sort of danger of sexual assault. And Babs clearly didn't seem to think so.

"A week?" Chloe finally questioned, her mind focusing on that rather than the nude part. "Uh huh." Chloe finally grunted at the rest of Babs explanation. She knew Sara was tough, and Babs was committed, but she hadn't expected anything like this. Chloe did glance over at John when she mentioned he was undergoing training as well, but he showed no signs of stripping...or of being distracted by Babs nude state. Chloe's eyes darted back to Babs when the now nude girl moved forward with the bag...Chloe had almost forgotten about that part. But she quickly remembered and gave a quick nod of permission as Babs slipped the bag over her head, and she actually giggled a bit at the surreal experience.

Chloe didn't hear John say anything when Babs announced they were ready, but the van began moving in response, and Chloe leaned back in her seat, and she actually chuckled as she felt the van make a series of right turns...was he going around the block to throw her off? It certainly seemed that way. Chloe hadn't thought to try and track their movements anyway, but she soon realized it would have been impossible even if she had wanted to with the route John was taking.
 
Barbara flushed slightly when she saw Chloe's reaction to her disrobing. She knew she should have given her friend a head's up first rather than just throwing her into the deep end but she just hadn't been able to say it. She was embarassed by her own cowardice but it was too late now. She glanced towards the front and saw John watching them. She blinked and quickly looked away, assuming he was mostly curious about Chloe's reaction rather than her nudity but she didn't know for sure.

Barbara nodded to Chloe's question. "Yes, and just so we're clear. It's something any trainee in Sara's dojo goes through. Don't worry, you're coming along as, I guess, moral support? Unless, well, Sara decides you can get some training too. I don't think John can train you otherwise. So you'll just be watching." She briefly glanced at John to see if he would correct her or add anything then looked back at Chloe.

Barbara relaxed near Chloe while John drove, ready to reach out and steady her friend if a turn made her lose her balance or something. She nibbled her lip, looking thoughtful then spoke quietly to Chloe. John would probably be able to overhear if he tried, her quiet was more because she was lost in thought rather than an attempt to hide anything from him. "I've got theories about why Sara tests commitment like this. I haven't actually had a chance to ask her and I'm not sure if she'd answer if I did. I have seen her since I started training when she..." She blushed suddenly and then shrugged, deciding that Chloe already knew so much this wouldn't hurt.

"She came to my office at Wayne Enterprises and had me strip down. She then put my clothes into a bag and hid them in another part of the building. I had to make my way nude through the building and retrieve them without getting caught." She stared outside at the passing buildings. "I succeeded. Partially due to my computer skills if I'm honest, I was able to hack into the security systems and use the cameras to spy on her and see where she put my clothes, plot my route and disable the cameras that might see me." She decided not to mention Bruce Wayne's role in things, not wanting to risk potentially putting thoughts into Chloe's head. She smirked. "If you ever saw that old movie Die Hard, I crawled through vent systems like Bruce Willis did. Except, you know, nude."
 
How does she know that? Chloe wondered when Babs claimed other trainees had gone through the nudity ritual. Chloe wasn't sure how many other trainees there were, or even if there were any other trainees. How many people were at this secret base? Chloe's mind raced with questions, and she didn't even regester Bab's oblique assurance she wouldn't have to train naked. The thought hadn't crossed her mind. If John had anything to say about babs explanation, he kept it to himself as he continued the circitous route to the base.

With the bag over her head, Babs couldn't see the wide grin on Chloe's face as she leaned into the curves, occasionally brushing up agaisnt Babs bare shoulder. The idea that her friend was naked next to her brought a blush to Chloe's face, likewise hidden by the bag. Despite the bag, Chloe looked over in Babs direction as she began to speak, of course not noticing the blush that acompanied her broken explanation.

Chloe's eyes widened as Babs mentioned being naked at Wayne Enterprises. It was just as well babs didn't mention Mr. Wayne had watched her do it, Chloe's imagination was already working overtime. "I think that movie would have gotten an X rating in that case." Chloe giggled nervously. "And I didn't think air vents were that big in real life."

If John had a reaction to babs story, he kept it to himself as he finally pulled into the parking garage. As soon as the door was shut, blocking any view Chloe might have had of the street, John exited the vehicle and moved to the side of the van where he opened the passenger door, silently giving Babs permission to not only exit, but uncover Chloe's head as well.
 
She waited quietly for the rest of the ride, doing her best to stabilize Chloe when needed. Barbara thought about the training as they rode which turned her thoughts to Sara. She remembered her joke that when she met Sara and they'd ended up on that couch in Bruce Wayne's manor that she wondered if her sexuality had been changed by the encounter and she blushed brightly, glad that Chloe couldn't see it.

Barbara didn't think air vents were that big either but she didn't tell Chloe her suspicion that Bruce Wayne had made them larger in case he, as Batman, needed to traverse them. Then again, she might be surprised and find lots of bigger buildings in Gotham had larger air vents than she'd ever imagined. "I didn't either Chloe, thankfully the ones in Wayne Enterprises were large enough for me. Things went pretty smoothly though I did encounter a guy from the motor pool at the very end. Luckily I was in the gym locker room so at worst he thought I was a bimbo who went into the wrong room." She blushed as she remembered that Stan seemed to think she was sleeping with Bruce Wayne, something else she decided not to mention.

Barbara nodded to John and reached out, taking off Chloe's head covering. She carefully stepped out of the van and grinned at Chloe. "It could be worse...this could be how we train at the Larussos. Can you imagine Sensei Larusso, Sam and Dave seeing this?"
 
Chloe was glad Babs was talking since she'd long given up on trying to track their route. It gave her something to focus on rather than the knowledge she was in a van with a strange guy nad her naked friend. She couldn't help but giggle at Babs story and the mental image that conjured up. "I didn't think your new job would require so much acting." Chloe replied, trying to pisture Babs acting like a bimbo. It was just as well Babs didn't mention Mr. Wayne had been there, as that would have conjured up an entirely different mental picture.

Chloe grinned back at Babs as she climbed out of the back of the van, making sure to look her friend in the face before she looked around the garage, and her face showed some disapointment. No lasers, no jets, no secret passages that she could see, not even any fancy warnign lights, it just looked like...a garage. She glanced back at Babs and both grinned and blushed at the thought. "I can picture Dave passing out." She giggled, unaware he'd already seen Babs naked.

John, for hsi part, either didn't hear or didn't care about, their conversation, as he led the two silently into the next room. Chloe looked around and grinned a bit. Training mats, weapons on the wall, training dummies, mysterious cabnets holding who knew what...yes, this was more like it. But John didn't stop in the training room as he led them towards the stairwell. "either of you have medical training?" he asked, and Chloe glanced at Babs uncertainly. "Ummm...Captain Gordon had me take some basic first aid classes. And I'm certified in CPR." She said.
 
She smirked even though Chloe couldn't see it. "No acting. I was just embarassed and he made some assumptions." The assumptions he made had to do with Bruce Wayne but she didn't see a need to share that.

She saw the disappointment on Chloe's face and laughed. "I'm afraid it's not a James Bond supervillain lair or wherever it is Batman hangs out. Just a normal dojo. Mostly. I think." She nodded in agreement with Chloe when she mentioned Dave passing out, her mind briefly flashing to the encounter between them. "Mmmhmm..." She hoped she wasn't accidentally messing with poor Dave's mind.

She noted John's silence and remembered how he'd seemed upset or angry with her off and on today. She wondered if he just found teenage girls annoying or if it was something specific to her, that she'd done. She walked into the familiar training room and blinked as she kept following John, listening to his question with a bit of surprise. "I've had some basic first aid classes in school but I'm not certified like Chloe is." She made a mental note to get more medical training as she could see it coming in useful. She had a brief mental image of her having to sew herself up like some kind of action movie hero and hoped that never happened. "Did you get hurt today?" She knew it was a silly question but she was hoping he'd let them know what had happened.
 
Chloe looked at Babs with a mixture of awe and skeptisicm. "You've seen Batman's base?" She asked softly, not sure if John knew about the suspected association between Sara and Batman, but if he heard the name he gave no reaction to it as he led the pair upstairs. He didn't appear to hear Bab's answer either, and didn't respond until he was asked a direct question, and even that was only one word. "No."

John opened the door on the second floor and past the door to the dorm room he presumably slept in. Chloe, of course, peeked in the door and was once again dispointed as the room had even less character than a college dorm room. The next door, however, really peeked her interest and she stopped and stared for a moment. There was a rack full of equipment, all with flashing lights, and a wall filled with TV monitors. Most were blank, but a few showed a feed of the inside of the building, and there were a few news channels playing. Chloe REALLY wanted to get a closer look at the computer she spotted, but John kept heading down the hall and Chloe didn't want to get left behind and potenially caught up in whatever security measures she was sure guarded the place. So she ran to catch up, trying not to pay attention to the fact she was catching up with Babs naked rear, as John led them both into a room at the end of the hall.

It was clearly a medical facility...the exam table in the center of the room was a dead giveaway, as were the red crosses on the cabinets lining the wall. There was also a tradmill along one wall, and what looked like an EKG machine with several leads dangling off of it. "When was the last time you had a medical exam?" John asked, and Chloe stopped staring at what looked like a highly advanced X-ray machine and turned to him. "Uh...about six months ago." She replied, but John didn't acknowledge her reply as he fixed his gaze on Barbara.
 
Barbara laughed quietly and shook her head. "No, I'm just thinking if his Batmobile is as fancy as it is he doesn't just park it in a boring garage in downtown Gotham. He's got to have a super high tech hidden base somewhere right? I also think he probably has a computer that I'd kill to get my hands on." She sighed as John was his usual untalkative self. Truthfully, she wasn't sure why Sam had flirted so obviously with him. Sure, he was good looking but his personality was prickly and he wasn't much for conversation.

Barbara's reaction to the room with all the monitors and computer equipment was even stronger than Chloe's. Her face lit up like she'd just seen the Holy Grail and she actually paused briefly before hurrying to catch up to John. She decided that she had to earn Sara's trust fully as soon as possible simply to get her hands on that equipment. Her mind raced at the idea of having a setup of her own like this someday. She couldn't afford it but she knew who could. She just had to convince him. Maybe while she was still training he'd let her have a hidden setup like this somewhere she could use to help him. She imagined them using earpieces as she hacked security cameras and databases to help him in his nightly patrols. Mmmm...maybe in that role she could call herself something different from the name she'd told Chloe earlier, Batgirl. Someone all knowing...hmmm. She could maybe call herself Oracle in that role if she could talk Batman into allowing it. And financing it.

She walked into the medical facility, half expecting to see someone lying injured on a table, maybe another student of Sara's or something but it was empty. She frowned in confusion. John wasn't injured he'd said, so what was going on? When he asked his question she knew immediately it was aimed at her and she intuited quickly that the first aid question was because John thought she might get injured in this exam. What the hell kind of exam did he have in mind?

"If you mean a physical, I had one back when I was in gymnastics classes so it's been a couple of years."
 
"Maybe he parks it in a boring garage so no one thinks to look there." Chlooe pointed out with a giggle. Truthfully she had no idea where Batman parked his vehicle, it wouldn't have surprised her if he had a reserved spot on the moon, but she did enjoy teasing Babs. "I bet he has a satellite base." Choe declared with a firm nod. But she couldn't disagree with babs assessment of the probably computer the Batman had, though Chloe hoped she wasn't the one Babs was going to kill.

Chloe smirked as Babs paused too, and she knew they were both thinkign the same thing. "I bet you'll get trained on those." Chloe whispered, though she had an idea she wouldn't be allowed into that part,. She suspected the monitors were blank because of her presence.

John almost nodded at her response that it had been a while since her last exam. "We'll have to do the blood test as well then." He determined, then looked at Chloe thoughtfully for a minute. Chloe noticed his attention and looked at him questionably, then swallowed nervously as he didn't say anything for a few more seconds. Then he nodded towards the computer desk. "Chloe...why don't you work the computer for Gordon's physical. You should be able to find her profile, and I'll tell you what to fill in." he finally declared, and Chloe nodded once again, both eager to be of use, and nervous at what she suspected were deleberetly vague instructions. Babs was right...everything was a test, and she knew John was testing her comptuer prowess.

"Yes, sir." Chloe said with a nod as she walked to the desk and took a seat. She swallowed nervously once again, and sighed as she saw the computer was already logged in, so she didn't need to hack the password. She foudn the patient profile tab and sighed with relief as typing in the name 'Gordon' brought up her friends profile. John had been right....it was an easy enough test. So far. Her eyes widened a bit as she saw some of the information had already been filled in. How had John learned Bab's measurements? And..." I didn't know your middle name was Joan." Chloe exclaimed when she saw that line on the screen.
 
She looked at the monitors as they passed and then turned her gaze to Chloe. "I'd love it, though it'd be one area where I'd be doing the training, not the other way around." She said it fairly casually, not seeming like she was boasting or bragging, she just truly believed it was a fact.

"Blood test? For what?" She sounded more curious than anything else. She had thought he was asking about a physical and she'd be running on treadmills or whatever. Why did they need blood too? She looked from him to Chloe as he told Chloe to handle the tech side of things. She also suspected John was testing Chloe though she found herself curious as to why. Did he think maybe Sara would bring her in? Could he report to Sara about Chloe and have some influence on any decision made there?

She raised her eyebrows at Chloe's first words after pulling up her profile. After a moment she realized she had no reason to be surprised. It'd be more surprising if Sara didn't have that kind of easily found information. "It is. It's just not something I bring up in casual conversation. Let's face it, most of us only hear our middle names in formal situations or when our parents are mad at us."
