It was strange how different it felt to move her body now after her attack. The scar tissue on her shoulder and arm made her joint stiff, and it took a lot longer to loosen up and warm up when she wanted to work out. It was something that actually bothered her a bit. She was worried that her lack of mobility would hinder her if something actually happened, which was why she was meeting with Cass. Cass was an expert in self defense, an area that Lizzy found herself somewhat lacking. The closest to self defense Lizzy knew was from taking Tae Bo and kickboxing in college. She was somewhat athletic, but certainly not very skilled in any useful way when it came to protecting herself.
She bent down and touched her toes, letting gravity slowly stretch her shoulder. She was feeling far more at home in Wayne Manor. Sure, the staff could be a bit overwhelming, and she had gotten lost a time or two, but for the most part, she loved it here. She even felt comfortable enough to work out in just a sports bra and shorts, leaving most of her scars bare. She was trying to get over the shyness and embarrassment of her scars. They were still red and angry, a reminder of how ugly the incident had been.
She stood up and continued to stretch, glancing at the clock. Cass should be here any moment, and they could get to work.
