Disclaimer- I do not own Young Justice
It started out a normal day for the young justice team. They were all lounging about on the couches, being extremely bored, and looking for something decent to watch on the T.V. that everyone would enjoy.
"We are so not watching Jersey Shore, I cannot stand those people!" Wally shouted, trying to wring the remote out of Artemis's hand.
"Yeah, but I don't want to watch some guy doing disgusting crap!" she shouted back defiantly.
"Hey! Dirty Jobs is an awesome show! You can learn a lot from it!" Wally said wrestling her to the ground.
"Like how to more disgusting then you already are?" Artemis said, dodging Wally's attempt to restrain her and leaping lithely out of the way, sending him tumbling to the floor.
"Well what does Jersey Shore teach you? How to act drunk and fake?"
Seeing that Artemis was about ready to kill Wally, Kaldur decided to jump in and try to end the fight.
"How about you both sit down and as a team decide what we want to watch?" Kaldur suggested. The two angered teens glared at each other and sat down stiffly, as far away as possible from the other.
"Good. What do you want to watch M'gann?"
"I would like to watch this history channel to learn more about earth," she said happily, looking at Superboy who just stared into space.
"Alright, what about you, Robin?"
"I don't care, just stop the arguing," he said typing away furiously on his computer.
"Okay then. What would you like to watch Superboy?" Kaldur asked facing the clone.
"That black and white, fuzzy show," he said, looking up with innocent eyes.
"And what exactly is that?" Wally asked. "Like some kind of old film channel?" Superboy just turned to him and sent him an angry glare, but didn't say anything, instead returning to staring into space.
"Okay then, Artemis and Wally have already made their opinions clear. MY opinion is that we go out and do something. I think being together inside cooped up, has taken its toll," Kaldur suggested.
"Sounds fine with me!" Wally said, already gathering up all the beach equipment.
"I guess that means we are going to the beach," Artemis said under her breath, but had nothing to day against it.
"Would you like to go to the beach, M'gann?" Kaldur asked.
"Yes, I would love to," she responded. "Would you like me to bake something quick to bring along?"
"NO!" everyone in the room said.
"We just mean that...um... we already have food packed," Wally tried to tell her with a sheepish smile.
"Oh, okay," Megan said not picking up on the lie.
"Well then it's settled then, we are going to the beach. I will check the weather to see if there are any storms coming," Kaldur said, grabbing the remote off of the coffee table, and flipping through the channels.
"Who lives in a Pineapple under the sea?"
"I don't want to be anything other then what I've been trying to be lately."
Hey, Arnold!"
"The circus is in town! Haley's circus is the best there is and has recently resurfaced to reclaim its throne as the most dangerous circus around. After the terrible tragedy four years ago they are ready for their grand re-opening. Stay tuned for more on the Grayson tragedy," the announcer said.
"Hey, I remember that circus!" Wally said. "It's great that they've decided to start again."
"I remember them coming to town too, I just never got the chance to see them perform," Artemis said.
"Oo I've never been to a circus before, could we possibly go to this grand re-opening?" Megan asked with a hopeful, puppy dog face.
"Yeah, we should totally go!" Wally said. "What do you think, Robin?" seeing that the boy was nowhere to be seen, "Robin? Hey guys did you see where he went?"
"He was right there a moment ago," Artemis said.
"Maybe he went to get ready?" Megan suggested.
"Yeah, that's probably it," Wally said, but he couldn't help but feel that something else had caused the boy to disappear.
The team was all ready to go to the beach. KF had red trunks on with a towel draped around his neck and snacks piled high in his arms.
"Can you stop eating for one second?" Artemis asked, looking at him disgustedly as he gulped down a bag of Doritos.
"High metabolism mean anything to you?" KF shot back.
"That doesn't give you an excuse to act like a pig," Artemis shot back. She was dressed in a green bikini and black glittering sunglasses, while her hair was in her traditional ponytail.
"Where is Robin?" Megan asked Kaldur and Superboy as the other two members of the team argued.
"I don't know, he is usually ready by now," Kaldur said scratching his head. "Do you think we should go check on him?"
"I will go," Superboy said, shoving past the two to Robin's room.
The corridors were silent as he steadily made his way, winding through the hallways until stopping in front of the hackers room. There was a lot of security preventing him from just entering the room including, a password, eye and hand scan, maybe a voice activation, and who knows what else the boy wonder has hidden.
Superboy looked at all of the technology, not making much out of it, and decided that maybe he would just knock.
"Robin!" he called thought the door with a loud bang as his fist followed his voice. When no response came he tried again. "Robin!"
When no response came again Superboy couldn't think of anything else to do but smash the door down. He backed up a few paces and then was just about to ram it with his shoulder when it opened and Robin stood there.
Robin didn't have time to move out of the way and Superboy didn't have time to stop his body's momentum. They crashed together in a heap in Robin's bedroom.
"Robin, are you okay?" Superboy asked, picking himself on the floor. The other boy was breathing hard and coughing, trying to stand up.
"I'm... (cough) okay... just got...the breath knocked...out of me," Robin tried to say, suppressing coughs the whole time.
"Are you hurt?" Superboy asked with concern. He usually spoke in an angered voice but somehow with Robin he felt this need to protect.
"Maybe a bruised rib or two, but nothing that will kill me," Robin replied accepting a hand from Superboy to pick him up. He seemed to use too much of his strength and once again Robin went flying through the air.
Superboy quickly ran over again to see the boy wonder crumpled in a heap, rubbing his head and his face pale. Superboy tried to help him up but Robin kindly declined.
"I can get up on my own thank you," he said, struggling to stand up, but managing on shaky legs. "You need to figure out how to tone down that strength of yours," Robin said trying to laugh the whole matter off.
"I am sorry, Robin," Superboy said, surprising Robin.
"What are you sorry for?"
"Isn't that what people do when they hurt someone?" Superboy asked, confused.
"Well, yeah, but it's not all your fault, you're still new at this," Robin said trying to hide the pain he still felt from the two accidents. "Why did you come to my room in the first place?" Robin asked trying to change the subject.
"I came to see if you were ready to go to the beach," Superboy said formally.
"Yeah, let's go," Robin said leaping out the door and doing a handstand down the hallways towards the rest of the team.
Authors Note- I know this has probably been done before, but hey, I've had this idea in my head for a while and would like to do my own version of the mysterious Robin and what he is hiding behind that mask. Sorry if Megan is out of character at all or her speaking is off. She was the hardest to write for. There will be upcoming angst and all that fun stuff, this is not just a fluffy story, just maybe at some moments...hehe. It will get better I promise. Thanks for reading and please review if you feel up to it :)
