DISCLAIMER- If you think I'm making ANY $$$ off this, you crazy! Oracle is prop. 
of DC comix and I haven't harmed or mutilated her in any way, so get off my 
case!

To Fly 
By Ju the PsychoLunatic (weird_one50@hotmail.com)

Sometimes there's a moment that just seems to get frozen in time. A turning 
point, a change. And you look back afterwards and remember every detail. 

I remember walking to the door on my legs. An insignificant thing, it seemed. 
Just unconscious impulses sent by my central nervous system to the nerves and 
muscles in my legs. Central nervous system- dictionary definition- the part of 
the nervous system comprising the brain and spinal cord. Spinal cord. Hmph. 

That moment when I opened the door. 

Shock/flight/fight/panic/outrage/confusion/attack/ flee/dosomethingdon' 
tjuststandthere! 

The shot went through me as if I was a squishy rotten pumpkin. I don't remember 
pain at first. The shock and disbelief came before the pain. However when it 
arrived, the agony incapacitated me with its ferocity. I fell to the ground 
clutching my stomach; my legs collapsed under me. 

I wish I could have stood for just another second. To feel the muscles in my 
legs hold up my weight like they had been doing unnoticed for so many years. You 
never miss something until it's gone. 

Stubbing your toe is entirely underrated. 

Yeah, I've got a great life. Serious. I have a wonderful man who's in love with 
me and I with him. I have a purpose in life: 411 for the hero population. 
Friends, family, job security, stability..... 

And this damned chair. 

If I'd lived a life of leisure, I honestly don't think it would be this bad to 
face my weakness. It would be hell, but not this deep of a hell. I've flown 
across the night sky, I've run and jumped and fought and battled in peak 
physical condition. How many of you out there can say that? 

I sit at my computers day after night after day after night, and become the 
brain running the world. Is Oracle a he, she or an it? Villains fear me. Heroes 
respect me. 

I know Batman personally for god's sake. 

As previously mentioned, my life is wonderful. I should have no serious 
complaints. 

Yet sometimes I just want to fly.
