A/N: So, howdy there people who read fan fiction about kids' cartoons! This is my second YJ story and my fourteenth story overall, so I hope you enjoy it, I'll see you lot at the end of the chapter!

Disclaimer: Don't own it, blah blah blah, if I did Linda Park would come in and be all, "I'm a reporter from Keystone." And Wally would be like, "Hnng, marry me."


The silence that the moderately large room had to offer was ended by screaming. Seven screams to be exact. Followed by the screams was the sound of seven bodies hitting the heavily carpeted floor.

The oldest of the seven was the first to react, reaching for his bow and an arrow from the quiver on his back only to find neither where they should be.

"'The hell?" Roy asked rubbing his head and looking around. He noted that the members of 'Baby Justice' were slowly sitting up and reaching for their weapons of choice. He also noted that all of them, including himself, were in their civies, Robin reaching inside his pocket for his sunglasses that Batman made him wear in front of the team.

Wally stood up and looked around his eyes landing on a television set in the front of the room. The TV, while quite big, also had the features of a TV from when his parents were kids.

Suddenly there was a flash of light and seven adults were standing next to the teens.

"Uncle Barry, Aunt Iris?"

"Wally?"

"Roy!"

"Ollie. Dinah."

"Silence."

Batman was standing in the middle of the room, his hand clasped around a piece of paper.

"We have been brought to this room for a reason, and if you would all be quiet for just enough time for me to read this letter and explain, the sooner we can get out. Now, any objections?" Batman looked around the room as people began to sit down on the couches provided.

Batman cleared his throat and read,

Hey, there Batsy-

Wally snorted and quickly changed it to a coughing fit from the look Batman gave him.

How are things in good ol' 2011? I'm sending this from the distant future from an island in the south Pacific because, hey, maybe something might change because of what I've decided to do and I won't be stuck with Harper-

Roy looked up at the mention of his last name. Did the person mean him?

And an alien princess. In any case, I've sent this letter and a specter named Essence, who will show up once you are done reading this letter, to show you some moments from your futures. In fact, it's any moment you choose, but you can only choose one.

"Isn't that, I don't know, pretty stupid?" Artemis asked raising an eyebrow at the piece of paper in the Dark Knight's hand.

"Yes," Batman agreed narrowing his eyes at the letter.

Yes, it is stupid, but it should be effective, see, the future sucks. A lot. By showing you these moments you might be able to change some things that could make out bit of the universe that much nicer.

Happy viewing!... Or not, depending on what moments you choose…

-Red Hood

Batman's eyes narrowed at the name. The Red Hood had been the name the Joker had used before he became, well, the Joker. Robin noticed the name as well, but did not react.

Why would an old Gotham villain be showing them moments from their futures and why did it seem like Roy was apart of all this?

Suddenly there was a light that engulfed the room and a woman with white hair and wearing all black appeared.

"You are the ones to see their futures, correct?

The occupants of the room nodded, noting the black aura that seemed to move around the woman. Another thing was her eyes, or lack thereof.

"My name is Essence and I will be here to do the task that the Red Hood and his friends have given. I owe them after they helped with the defeating of the murders of the All Caste."

"Well, the sooner we do this, the sooner we get out of here, right, Batsy?" Barry grinned and nudged Batman who glared at the speedster and then looked at Essence.

"Very well, let's begin."


A/N: I hope you all enjoyed it, and if you didn't then please stick around, because I promise it will get better!

Also, I just wanted to say that, yes Jason Todd put this together, because nobody else would. I also have this time line in my mind that pretty much happens like in Earth-1 pre-reboot and has some aspects of the reboot, such as the Outlaws, Lian Harper still dies, Artemis doesn't marry Wally OR Icicle Jr. instead she marries and has a daughter with Kyle Rayner (Green Lantern), and so much more, so stick around!
