"Ah!" Emily Lance yelled as she crashed into the mat, rolling to a stop.

"Come on, Em, you wanted this," the blonde woman above her sighed, offering Emily her hand.

"I know, but I didn't expect myself to be thrown about so much," Emily pouted, taking Dinah's hand.

"You'll get there, someday you might be able to take on me," Dinah smiled, hefting Emily up.

Emily's eyes widened, "Really?!"

"Yes, but only if you train," Dinah nodded, "Again."

Emily narrowed her eyes, running at her Dinah before at the last second sliding under her Dinah's legs, coming up the other side she didn't notice her Dinah turn until her foot pushed against her chest, sending the young girl tumbling.

"I don't know why I'm doing this, there's no one out there for me to save," the raven haired girl sniffled, standing up and looking down.

"Emily, your mother-."

"Don't talk about my mother. You don't know her! I overheard her and daddy talking! You never visit, you never come over, and mom said she hadn't seen you since Kyla's-," Emily's voice caught at her sister's name, "Since Kyla's sixth birthday! That was eight years ago!"

The room they were in started to violently shake, toppling over wooden frames. Dinah reached for Emily, but Emily batted her hands away, snapping her hands to her side just as the windows behind them shattered.

Emily stopped, looking around the wrecked room in horror, "D-did I d-do this?"

Dinah smiled weakly, "Yes. But that's not a bad thing, and if you learn to control it," Dinah turned to the window to her right and let out a scream, the window shattered instantly, "you can use it to your advantage."

Emily returned the feeble smile, "Will you teach me, to be a hero like you?"

Black Canary smiled, "All heroes start somewhere."
