A/N: Hey friends! To those of you who have read Falcon, welcome to the rewrite of Falcon! And to those of you who are new, welcome to the rewrite of Falcon nonetheless! It may seem pointless to rewrite it, but I feel as though I need to flesh out Felicity a bit more. Anyways, I'll have more in the bottom author's note about my reasoning as well as some other things.
Just so you guys know, this is kind of a trial thing. I'm still working on my other stories, but rewriting Falcon has been on my to-do list for a little while. I am not happy with how the beginning half of the original Falcon turned out. Reading it back, I actually cringed at a few parts xD
Young Justice is not mine.
WASHINGTON, D.C.
July 4, 12:00 EDT
The blazing July sun sat high in the sky, bathing the earth below in sweltering heat. Crowds of tourists, fans, and news reporters had gathered before the Hall of Justice, home to the strongest heroes the Earth has ever known. They awaited the heroes eagerly, cheering and snapping pictures of the magnificent building before them.
Hawk and Dove stood proudly before the cheering crowd, in the spot that the rest of the heroes were to meet them, and posed. Behind the two boys stood their younger sister, decked out in her own hero garb. Though she wasn't as well-known as her two brothers, she was slowly making a name for herself.
Falcon bounced on the balls of her heels, chewing on her lower lip. The girl had posed a few times, but quickly grew self-conscious and ducked behind her brothers. In all honesty, the girl wasn't in the mood to pose. She, and her brothers, had arrived at the Hall of Justice expecting to meet up with four other Leaguers- Batman, Flash, Aquaman, and Green Arrow- as well as their sidekicks. But they were the first to arrive.
Today was the day. The day they'd finally join the League and be rid of the status of 'sidekick'.
Speaking of the other 'sidekicks', Falcon had yet to meet them all. Sure, she'd heard of them, but she hadn't had the pleasure of making their acquaintances. Her heart began to beat faster at the mere thought of meeting them all, and the four League members. The Flash and Kid Flash were the only other heroes she had met so far. In fact, after their initial meeting, her and her brothers had teamed up with the speedsters a few times.
However, to say she was nervous was still an understatement.
These were the original sidekicks. They all had far more experience under their belts than she did. Falcon had joined the hero world a little more than a year ago, whereas Robin, who was obviously the youngest, had been training under Batman for a little bit more than four years. She had a lot to look up to.
"Hiya," Falcon jumped at the sudden voice beside her. The girl had been so consumed with her thoughts that she neglected to notice Batman and Robin, the Dynamic Duo, had shown up.
Falcon plastered on a grin and felt her nerves only increase more as she turned to face the two newcomers, "H-hi."
"Falcon, right?" Robin went on. The raven stuck out his hand, smiling broadly.
After a few second hesitation, Falcon stuck her hand out as well, returning the handshake. She noted Robin had a firm handshake, "Yeah," She nodded, "And you're Robin…" Falcon trailed off, growing more and more self-conscious as Robin's grin widened, "But that was obvious…" The girl ended with a mutter.
Robin merely chuckled as he eyed the blonde girl up and down. She was cute, and obviously kind of shy and nervous.
Batman nodded at Falcon before turning to her older brothers, "Glad you three could make it."
A large smile spread across Hawk's face as he wrapped his arm around Falcon's shoulder, tugging the smaller girl to his side, "Same here. You should've seen Falcon this morning. I don't think I've ever seen her more excited!"
"Hawk," Falcon groaned, shoving her brother's arm off her shoulder as a light blush dusted her cheeks. It was true though. She had been beyond excited to come to the Hall of Justice today. Heck, she still was excited!
And now she was flustered.
Once again, Robin chuckled. Falcon felt her blush increase as the cute boy grinned at her, "Hey, I was- am- excited as well."
Falcon returned his grin and felt her nerves lessen. But only slightly. However, she could tell that, given time, she and Robin could become good friends. The kid was very easy going and it was hard to not like him.
"Glad to see we're not the last ones here," A new voice said. Falcon turned around, watching as Green Arrow and…. Red Ar- no. The blonde scrunched her nose. She had seemingly forgotten the name of Green Arrow's sidekick- whose name she should remember because he was the next sidekick after Robin to enter the hero world.
Green Arrow shifted his masked gaze to the only girl in the group. A friendly smile settled on his lips, "And who's this?"
"Meet Falcon," Dove grinned and Falcon once again found herself tugged to her brother's side, "Our baby sister."
Falcon scowled playfully, pushing her brother away from her, "Is it your goal to embarrass me today?"
"It's our goal to embarrass you every day," Hawk beamed down at his sister.
Green Arrow chuckled, tipping his hat at the young blonde, "Name's Green Arrow," He reached over, clasping a hand on the shoulder of the teen decked out in red next to him, "And this is Speedy."
Falcon nodded. Speedy. That was the name of Green Arrow's sidekick. A part of the blonde wondered why he was named Speedy, but she didn't dare question it out loud.
Speedy gave the girl a tight smile, obviously tense. Falcon gave him a timid smile in return. Where Robin gave off an easy going, approachable aura, Speedy was basically the exact opposite. The blonde found him almost unapproachable and slightly intimidating, though that could just be because the guy was feeling as nervous as she was?
Almost as if he read her mind, Robin popped back up at Falcon's side, "Don't worry about Speedy," He said, voice low, "He's actually pretty friendly."
Falcon nodded, running a hand through her blonde hair. She flashed the raven haired teen an unsure smile, "And here I thought he just didn't like me."
Though the two had talked in hushed murmurs, Speedy managed to pick up on the short conversation. At the girl's reply, a ghost of a smile graced the archer's lips.
Only a few minutes later, the Atlantean's showed up. Falcon was greeted with a few, very gentleman-like, hellos and introductions from the two. She was impressed, to say the least, with how much of a gentleman Aqualad was, especially seeing as he was sixteen. It was refreshing, Falcon had to admit, especially compared to the normal douche-baggy sixteen year olds she dealt with in high school.
A silence had settled upon the small group of heroes gathered. Falcon found it almost unnerving. She'd thought they'd be more… chatty, but they proved to be the opposite.
"Today is the day," Batman's gruff voice broke the silence. Falcon glanced back at the Dark Knight, noticing how he place a proud hand on his sidekick's shoulders.
"Welcome to the Hall of Justice," Green Arrow tacked on.
"Headquarters of the Justice League," Aquaman added.
Falcon had to resist the urge to laugh. In her mind she pondered on whether or not the three had rehearsed what they were going to say. However, a majority of her thoughts were preoccupied with a missing speedster.
"Hey," The girl nudged Robin, "If Flash and Kid Flash can run at supersonic speeds, then why are they late?"
Robin cackled softly, smiling at the girl. With a shrug, he said, "Dunno. It happens all the time."
Falcon nodded, muttering a small 'oh'. She still wasn't quite sure why they were late, and she was even more confused when butterflies appeared in her stomach at the mere thought of seeing the ginger speedster again.
"Oh man!" A familiar voice cried out.
Speak of the devil.
Falcon, and the rest of the group, turned around to see the two speedsters skid to a halt, kicking up dust in their wake. Falcon's heart began hammer in her chest and the girl found it hard to come up with something to say to the speedster.
"I knew we'd be the last one's here!" Kid Flash whined with a pout, crossing his arms over his chest.
Flash glanced down at his sidekick, an amused look on his face, "Guess we should've run faster."
Kid Flash groaned, dragging his hands down his face in an exaggerated manner before his green eyes locked on Falcon. Said girl felt her face heat up as the speedster waggled his eyebrows at her, "Hello~ beautiful," He winked at the blonde, "Long time no see."
Falcon rubbed the back of her neck, attempting to keep her blush at bay, "H-hey, Kid Flash."
The ginger speedster fake pouted, "All I get is a measly hey?" He spread his arms wide, a smirk on his lips, "Come here."
The blonde glanced back at her brothers, and the other heroes who were watching the small exchange. Falcon's flush increased at the variety of looks the gathered heroes were giving her. With an unnoticeable gulp, Falcon stepped forward. She could hear her heart hammering in her ears as the butterflies in her stomach only increased.
Falcon's arms curled around Kid Flash's toned torso and the speedster didn't hesitate to return the gesture. She breathed in deeply, taking in Kid Flash's smell. He smelled like pine mixed with sweat and fresh air. But of course, all good things must come to an end.
Pulling away, Kid Flash grinned down at the shorter- only by a few inches- girl, "Much better."
Falcon attempted to return his smile, but she felt as though it came out as more of a grimace seeing as she was also fighting to keep her blush down, which she was starting to literally feel on her face.
Batman glanced at the two teens before gruffly saying, "Now that we're all here, let's go."
Hawk set a hand on his sister's shoulder before guiding her forward. Eventually, all the sidekicks ended up walking in front of their mentors as they made their way towards the Hall of Justice.
Flashes began to emanate from the left and right as the chatter among spectators began to increase in excitement. Only as the heroes neared closer and closer did the frenzy increase.
"Is that Batman?"
"I see Flash and Flash Junior!"
Falcon noticed Robin, who was on her left, bite down on his lower lip to keep in his chuckles. Glancing to her right, she noticed the slightly annoyed look on Kid Flash's face.
"I thought his name was Speedy?"
"No! Speedy is Green Arrow's sidekick!"
"Well, that makes no sense."
They have a point. Falcon thought, her mind going back to a question she had earlier. Where did Speedy get his name from?
"It's Hawk and Dove!"
Falcon felt her chest swell with pride at the acknowledgement her brother received.
"Yeah but, who's the girl with them?"
And then the pride deflated, leaving the girl with an almost wounded feeling in her chest.
"Don't worry, Fal," Dove leaned forward, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder, "They'll know your name one day."
Falcon smiled softly, immediately feeling better. Who cared if the world knew her name? She knew she was going good work. She didn't need the public's reassurance to know that.
"Ready to see the inner sanctum?" Green Arrow asked Speedy.
Glancing back, Falcon was slightly surprised to see the small, smug smile on the archer's face, "Born that way."
"I am glad we're all here," Aqualad said, glancing around at his fellow sidekicks, "Including you, Falcon."
The blonde smiled back at the Atlantean. She was happy, and honored, to be included.
"Have all five sidekicks ever been in the same place at the same time?" Kid Flash innocently wondered out loud.
"Don't call us sidekicks, not after today." Speedy snapped with a hint of malice in his voice. Falcon frowned. That was kind of rude. She thought to herself.
Kid Flash rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly, "Sorry," He apologized, "First time at the hall, "I'm a little overwhelmed."
Robin glanced between Speedy and Kid Flash before commenting, "You're overwhelmed, Freeze was underwhelmed, why isn't anyone ever just whelmed?" Whelmed?
"You're English teacher must hate you," Falcon breathed out. Only when Robin turned to her, giving her an amused grin while Kid Flash chuckled did the girl snap a hand over her mouth. She had not intended to say that out loud, "I'm sorry!"
Robin brushed her off with a laugh, "Don't be."
Falcon flashed him a soft grin before returning her attention up front. Her masked eyes widened as the large crystal doors leading into the Hall of Justice opened. Upon entering the place, the girl's jaw practically fell to the floor.
Standing before them, high up on pedestals, were huge, overwhelming, bronze statues of the original Justice League members. Falcon had to admit, she found it a tad bit intimidating to be standing underneath the large statues, who seemed to bear down on them.
"Maybe that's why…" The girl faintly heard Robin mutter. She was a tad bit wrapped up in the statues staring down at them.
Falcon felt someone nudge her gently. She craned her neck back to see Dove directing her towards a pair of large metal doors. With a hiss, the two doors slid open, revealing two League members.
Martian Manhunter, whom Falcon recognized immediately, stepped forward, while Red Tornado stood silently beside him, "Robin, Speedy, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Falcon; welcome."
Falcon couldn't help the grin that spread across her face as Kid Flash and Robin fist bumped beside her. This was it. The crowning moment.
The doors slid shut behind the group, blocking out the press and spectators. Falcon's heart began to pound once more as the Martian lead them further and further down a dark hall. As the tour went on, Falcon tuned the Leaguer out. She had too much on her mind to focus on what she did and didn't have access to.
You're not good enough to fight alongside these heroes. A small part of her nagged. They all have so much more experience and potential than you do.
Falcon scowled to herself, missing the concerned look Kid Flash sent her way.
You'll never be like them. You're just a pathetic wannabe.
Stop it. She growled at herself. Now that she was actually here, in the Hall of Justice, the thoughts that had plagued her long before today were coming back.
What if she wasn't good enough? You would think after being in the hero business for a year, people would start to recognize her. Sure, Falcon told herself it didn't matter if she was recognized or not, but it still stung whenever her brothers received more credit than she got.
After all, everyone appreciates some amount of recognition.
"…and of course, our library."
Falcon blinked, clearing her mind of her previous thoughts as she stepped into the large room. Her gaze flickered from wall to wall, taking in the row upon row of bookshelves that lined the room. In the center of the room, at the very back, stood a large central computer and console. There were also a few lounge chairs strewn about and Flash turned to them, arms spread wide as he announced, "Make yourselves at home!"
Kid Flash and Robin immediately dove into two of the closest arm chairs while Aqualad sat down in another nearby chair. Speedy chose to stand, crossing his arms over his chest. Falcon, feeling slightly awkward, chewed on her lower lip as she walked closer to the boys, coming to a stop between Robin and Speedy.
"Hey beautiful," Kid Flash called out. Falcon glanced over at the speedster to see him flashing her a sly smirk, "I have a seat right here if you want?" The blonde cocked her head to the side, slightly confused at first until Kid Flash patted his lap, tossing her another wink.
Cheeks flaring up, Falcon played with a strand of her blonde hair and bit her lower lip again. This boy. She thought to herself.
With slight hesitation, Falcon stepped towards the speedster, whose eyes had brightened at the thought of the girl actually taking him up on his offer. Currently away of all eyes on her, the blonde stepped passed the speedster, carefully sitting on his armrest instead.
Without facing the teen, she muttered, "I'll just sit here." Unbeknownst to her, Kid Flash frowned, before reaching across the seat and punching a cackling Robin.
Falcon placed her hands in her lap, her gaze shifting to her brothers, who now had their backs to the girl. The rest of the Leaguer's present were also not paying any mind to their sidekicks. Instead, they were murmuring to each other. Occasionally, Falcon would catch a word or two, but not enough to actually make sense of what was going on.
Finally, after a few minutes of murmuring, Batman faced the sidekicks, "Quick debrief to discuss the coincidence of four ice villains attacking on the same day," He announced, "We shouldn't be long."
Falcon fidgeted in her seat nervously, watching as a small scanner appeared out of the ceiling. It immediately began to scan and identify each of the League members present. Once it was done, the heavy metal doors before them slid open with a thud.
"That's it?" An angry voice spat. Falcon's head whirled around, masked eyes going wide as they landed on a very tense Speedy. Her eyes stayed trained to the archer's figure as he marched passed the four other sidekicks, "You promised us a real look inside, not a glorified backstage pass!"
"It's a first step," Aquaman calmly said, "You've been granted access few others get."
"Oh, really?" Speedy snapped, gesturing above to a glass panel, where spectators were rapidly snapping photos, "Who cares which side of the glass we're on?"
"Roy, you just need to be patient," Green Arrow stepped forward, attempting to calm the raging teen.
Speedy scowled, anger flaring even more, "What I need is respect!" He turned, facing the other sidekicks, "They're treating us like kids- worse, sidekicks. We deserve better than this."
A tense silence followed Speedy's sudden outburst. Falcon found herself staring at anywhere but the angry archer. Once again, she chewed her lower lip- a nervous habit of hers- as she wrung her hands together. The way Speedy spat sidekick made it seem like it was a bad thing. Sure, as Falcon, she was inexperienced, but it was the sidekicks she looked up to, not the heroes themselves. She related better to the kids around her age, it only made sense.
Up until now, sidekick wasn't a bad thing. It was almost a term of endearment. But now, seeing the League- consisting of her brothers- treat her as such, Falcon could see why being a sidekick was a bad thing.
They were taken for granted.
Speedy glanced around at the teens incredulously. He didn't bother to hide his shock as he said, "You're kidding, right? You're playing their game?! Why? Today was supposed to be the day, step one in becoming full-fledged members of the League!"
Kid Flash glanced up at Falcon, the two sharing a worried glance before the speedster looked at the archer. With a shrug, he said, "Well, sure, but I thought step one was a tour of the HQ?"
"Except the Hall isn't the League's real HQ!" Falcon noted the Leaguer's surprised expressions as they fidgeted wearily behind the enraged Speedy, "I bet they never told you it's just a false front for tourists and a pit stop for catching zeta beam teleporter tubs to the real thing, an orbiting satellite called the Watchtower!"
"You're not helping your cause her, son," Aquaman stepped forward. Falcon winced as Speedy's tense posture increased even more, "Or-"
"Or what?" Speedy spat, leveling the Atlantean with an angry glare, "You'll send me to my room? And I'm not your son," His masked eyes darted to his mentor, Green Arrow, "I'm not even his. I thought I was his partner."
Speedy reached up, snatching his yellow cap in his hands before tossing it angrily to the gray floor below, "But not anymore." Falcon's eyes widened as her stomach dropped.
This went downhill real fast.
Falcon was left with a somber feeling in the pit of her stomach as the angry archer spun tersely on his heel. Speedy levelled the other 'sidekicks' with glares as he stormed through them.
"Guess they're right about you three," Speedy spat bitterly, "You're not ready."
Kid Flash leapt to his feet, which in turn caused Falcon to jump to hers. Her mind raced as she watched Speedy's retreating figure disappear behind the steel doors through which they entered. A lump formed in her throat, one which she tried to swallow.
The tension that had formed in the air was practically palpable. Falcon and the other teens stood tense, not facing their mentors, as they stared solemnly at the heavy steels doors, wistfully thinking maybe Speedy would change his mind. After all, today was supposed to be the day.
It was turning out to be the worst day ever.
Falcon noticed Kid Flash's trembling shoulders. She couldn't tell if it was because he was angry, or because he was fighting back tears. Whatever the reason was, Falcon felt compelled to place a comforting hand on his shoulder, which she did.
Kid Flash's body tensed slightly at the initial contact, but he was quick to relax once he realized it was just Falcon. He flashed the girl a smile, covering her gloved hand with his own, though it came out as more of a grimace than anything.
Speedy was their closest friend. Falcon had just met the guy- and she already wasn't a big fan of him- but to Aqualad, Kid Flash, and Robin, he was their friend. She couldn't imagine the thoughts and feelings running through their heads at this very moment.
A loud blaring sound filled the room. Falcon and the others turned around to see the large computer flash green a few times before being replaced by Superman's face.
"Superman to Justice League. There's been an explosion at Project Cadmus. It's on fire."
"I've had my suspicions about Cadmus," Batman spoke up to the Man of Steel, "This may present the perfect opportunity to in-"
"Zatara to Justice League. The sorcerer Wotan is using the Amulet of Attan to blot out the sun. Requesting full League response."
"Superman?" Batman inquired.
Robin moved forward and the rest followed suit, with Falcon hanging behind slightly. The blonde quietly took in the information, as well as watched as the other protégés seemed to grow eager.
"It's a small fire. Local authorities have it under control," Superman replied. Falcon cocked an eyebrow. If it was in fact a small fire, which was under control no less, why call the Justice League?
"Then Cadmus can wait," Batman declared, pressing a large button on the keyboard before him, "All Leaguer's rendezvous at Zatara's coordinates. Batman out." The Leaguer's began to disperse and head towards the set of doors they were originally going to disappear into earlier.
Falcon had to admit, the excitement that the three boys before her were feeling was contagious. She trailed behind the teens as they approached their mentors, only for Batman to gruffly tell them to stay put.
Robin's shoulders sagged as a look of disbelief flashed across his face, "What? Why?"
"This is a League mission," Aquaman explained.
"You're not trained-"
"Since when!?" Kid Flash cried out, cutting of his mentor.
"He means you're not trained to work as part of this Team," Hawk clarified for the speedster, gesturing to himself and the other Leaguer's. Falcon flashed her brother a glare, lips stretched in a firm line.
"There will be other missions when you're ready," Aquaman pressed on, and Falcon's eyes narrowed.
"But for now," Batman spoke, voice firm and clear, "Stay put."
The League members left, the heavy metal doors slamming shut behind them. Falcon was dumbfounded, and she could tell the others felt the same way.
Kid Flash scoffed, eyes squeezed tight in annoyance, "When we're ready? How are we ever supposed to be ready when they treat us like… like…"
"Sidekicks," Falcon finished for the speedster quietly.
"Exactly!" Kid Flash cried out as he waved his arms around.
Aqualad shifted his gaze downwards, feeling dejected, "My mentor… my King… I thought he trusted me."
"Trust? They don't even trust us with the basics!" Kid Flash retorted, "They've got a secret HQ in space!"
Falcon sighed and chewed on her lower lip. She glanced down at the ground, rubbing her arm sadly, "Think there's more they're not telling us?"
Robin glanced at the somber girl before finally speaking up, "I've got a better question: Why didn't we leave with Speedy?"
A heavy silence fell upon the small group. Falcon continued to rub her arm, simply as a means to comfort herself, but it wasn't working.
My brothers… I thought they'd treat me as an equal. Falcon thought solemnly to herself. They meant the world to the girl, and for them to up and betray her trust, treat her like she was lesser than them, it hurt the blonde to say the least.
"What is…" Masked eyes snapped over to the Atlantean. A curios look swam in the depths of his eyes as he finished, "Project Cadmus?"
"Don't know," Falcon's masked gaze shifted to the Boy Wonder, who was smirking, "But I can find out."
Robin sauntered over to the large mainframe. Falcon watched in slight awe as his fingers moved at blurring speeds- speeds which she didn't think were possible for a normal human being- across the keyboards.
I have got to learn how to do that. The girl mused silently to herself.
"Access denied." The computer drawled.
"Heh, wanna bet?" Robin smirked. Falcon cocked her head to the side, watching in confusion- which was an understatement in her case- as various codes and numbers flew in various directions across the screen.
"How are you doing that?" Kid Flash breathed out, emerald eyes wide in astonishment.
"Same system as the Batcave," Robin replied in a smug tone, his smirk only increasing in size. Falcon was left to silently wonder just how times the Boy Wonder had hacked into said system.
"Access granted."
"Alright. Project Cadmus," Robin began to read the file that had popped up on the large screen, revealing a picture of a stark white, two story building, "A genetics lab here in D.C… That's all there is, but if Batman's suspicious," Taking a small step back from the computer, Robin grinned mischievously at the three teens, "Maybe we should investigate?"
"Solve their case before they do," Aqualad smiled softly, mulling the thought over in his head, "It would be poetic justice."
"Hey," Robin chuckled, "They're all about justice!"
Falcon glanced between the three teens before her. Kid Flash looked already sold on the idea, same with Robin. That much was obvious. However, one look at the Atlantean, and it was obvious he wasn't quite sold. Truth be told, Falcon felt the same as Aqualad. After today's events, she was more than ready to just go home and give her brothers the silent treatment for the next year- or for the next day, whichever came first.
Aqualad sighed, the smile leaving his face, "But they said stay put."
"For the blotting out the sun mission," Robin grinned, stepping forward, "Not this."
Kid Flash glanced at his friend, realization dawning on his face, "Wait. Are you going to Cadmus?" He eagerly turned Robin to face him, a broad grin stretched across his face, "Because if you're going, I'm going."
Sharing a grin, the two boys turned towards Aqualad and Falcon, putting on their best puppy dog eyes and grinning brightly.
"Just like that, we're a Team on a mission?" Aqualad questioned, amusement lacing his voice.
"We didn't come for a playdate," Robin answered with a smirk.
The corners of Aqualad's lips twitched up into a smile before Kid Flash and Robin moved on to their next target.
"What do you say, beautiful?" Kid Flash beamed at the girl, "You in?"
Falcon rubbed the back of her neck, feeling slightly sheepish with all eyes on her. I don't know… The League could have our heads for this. She wanted to say, but instead it came out as, "I'm in." Which surprised herself. But hey, a little Team bonding wouldn't hurt, right?
If possible, Kid Flash's grin grew as he sped over to the blonde, arm curling around her shoulder. Falcon felt another blush dust her cheeks at the speedster's sudden proximity, but she didn't bother to remove his arm.
As the three teens, whom she could call her friends, grinned at her, Falcon felt her nerves slowly beginning to melt. Today may not have gone how she had initially planned it, but they were definitely onto something now and they were going to make the most of it.
After all, today is still the day.
A/N: So, what do you guys think so far? We still have Wallicity going on of course! But I plan on developing the early stages of their relationship a bit more (which means blushing and flustered Felicity and Wally x3 ).
Alright. Some of the main reasons this rewrite is happening is because I'm not satisfied with the first half of Falcon. Not to sound vein or narcissistic, but I know my writing has improved. I've come a long way since originally joining fanfiction and I feel it's time to revamp Felicity. The other day I stumbled across her original profile and realized that I haven't stuck to her original personality. She was supposed to be shy and slightly timid, especially around other heroes at first simply because she hadn't been in the field very long. In my mind, Hawk and Dove had been heroes for about two-three years before Falcon joined them a little more than a year before season one. She'll definitely open up and become more outgoing as the story goes on, that was my initial plan for her. I never followed through with that... Falcon had only met Kid Flash before the day. This was her first time meeting the other proteges, which never happened in the first story. She's techincally a newb in the hero world and I wanted to make that show a bit more so I can develop her as the season progresses. Also, I wrote the first few chapters with the fact in mind that she had powers liker her brothers. She doesn't. She's just your average, boring old human being. Powerless.
Please drop a review! I want to know what you guys think of the redo so far. I have plans to add in more stuff, extra chapters pertaining more to her background, and just extra stuff period. I don't want to just stick to the plot this time around. I only had a few chapters that were all my own plot last time around, I want to change that.
You see the box below, correct? Well make it happy and leave it a review! :D
