I sit on the edge of the roof, rocking my feet back and forth.

"Are they here yet?" I ask.

"Just like five minutes ago, no." My older sister, Artemis, replies.

"This isn't exactly enjoyable. GA and BC seriously needs to hurry up." I sigh.

"Someone call?" I turn and see our new mentors, Green Arrow and Black Canary. I groan

"You two sure take your time." I say and get up.

"You girls ready?" BC asks.

"I was born ready." I say proudly. GA chuckles

"Okay, lets go." He says and we get down from the roof. We walk up to an empty phone booth. Me and Artemis share a glance before hesitantly walking in

"Recognized, Green Arrow 0-8

Recognized Black Canary 1-3

Recognized, Artemis B-0-7

Recognized, Jade Canary B-0-8"

"Holy League of Shadows." I whisper when we enter a cave. "This place is a lot bigger than you said!" I gasp.

"Artemis, Jade Canary." I hear a deep voice call. We turn around and see Batman and Red Tornado

"Hello," I greet.

"Hi," Artemis says.

"Are you both ready to meet the team?" RT asks.

"Lets do it." Me and Artemis say. Than, like magic, the team walks in. I of course instantly recognize Robin and Aqualad. But with them, was a martian girl and a boy who looked identical to Superman. Just younger. They were about to introduce when the transporter thingie turned on

"Recognized, Kid Flash B-0-3"

"The Wallman is here! Now lets get this party star-" A ginger comes in with beach stuff and wearing beach clothes. He trips over his own stuff and lands right on his stomach. His beach ball bounces past Batman and RT "-ted."

"Wallman, huh? I love the uniform. What exactly are your powers?" Artemis asks. I snicker

"Uh, who are they?" He asks.

"Artemis"

"Jade Canary"

"Your new teammates." We say in unison.

"Kid Flash, never heard of you." He replies. Ever hear of manners, red?

"Um, they're our new protégé's." GA says, he wraps an arm around Artemis and BC puts a hand on my shoulder.

"What happened to your old one?" Red quickly asks.

"Recognized, Speedy B-0-6."

"Speak of the devil himself." I mutter.

"Well, for starters, he doesn't go by Speedy anymore. Call me Red Arrow." He says.

"So creative. You must have hurt your pretty little head thinking that one up." I say sarcastically. And for that comment, BC elbowed me. Which probablgave me a bruise since dang! This woman has very sharp elbows!

"Roy, you look-"

"Replaceable." He interrupts.

"It's not like that, you told me you were going solo." GA reminds him.

"Than why hire a sub? Can she even use that bow?" Copy Arrow asks.

"Yes, she can." Me and Artemis snap. No one says anything rude about Artemis without me saying anything.

"Who are you?" Red asks, again.

"We're his nieces" "They're my nieces" Me, Artemis, and GA lie.

"More nieces?" Boy Wonder asks, chuckling. Boy Wonder... Robin... You ask me I prefer Spandex.

"But she is not your replacements. And we have no quota on archers." Aqualad reasons.

"And if we did, you know who'd we pick." Red adds.

"Besides, we don't even know what she can do." Spandex says, referring to me.

"Whatever Bay Watch/Spandex." Artemis and I say.

"We're here to stay." I finish.

"You came to us for a reason." Aqualad reminds Copy Arrow.

"Yeah, a reason named Doctor Sterling Roquette." He replies. Spandex's eyes widen and he pulls up a computer screen

"Nano robotics genius, electrons expert in Royal University in Star City. Vanished two weeks ago." He says.

"Stalker." I whisper/sing, and Artemis smirks.

"Abducted two weeks ago. By the League of Shadows." Copy Arrow says.

"Whoa, you want up rescue her from the shadows?" Spandex asks. Please, you're not even near their level.

"Hardcore." Red replies and they fist bump.

"I already rescued her." He walks up to the computer screen "Only one problem. The Shadows had already coursed her into creating a weapon. Doc calls it the fog. Comprised of millions of microscopic robots. Nano tech infiltrators, capable of disintegrating anything in it's path. Concrete, steel... Flesh, bone. But it's true purpose isn't mere destruction. It's theft. The infiltrators eat and store raw data from any computer system. And deliver the stolen intel to the shadows. Providing them access to weapons, strategic defense, cutting edge science and tech." He tells us.

"Perfect for extortion, manipulation, power broking." I name off.

"Yeah, sounds like the shadows." Artemis replies.

"Like you know anything about the shadows." Red says. I cross my arms wearing a smirk and me and Artemis look at each other, if he only knew. "WHO ARE YOU?!" Red asks, again.

"Roquette's working on a virus to render the fog inert." Copy tells us.

"But if the shadows know they can do that..." Spandex starts.

"They'll target her. Right now she's off the grid, I stashed her at the local high school computer lab." Copy says.

"You left her alone?" GA asks.

"She's safe enough for now." Cop replies.

"Then lets you and I keep her that way." GA offers.

""You and I"? Don't you want to take your new protégé?" Copy Arrow growls. Before GA can reply, Bats puts a hand on his shoulder

"You brought this to the team, it's their mission. Which means it's hers now too." GA says. Copy scoffs

"Than my jobs done." He says, and walks away

"Recognized, Speedy-"

"That's Red Arrow. B-0-6. Update." And than he was gone. Red glares at me and Artemis. Whats his problem?

Happy Harbor

August 8, 21:58 EDT

"Everyone online?" I hear Miss M ask.

"Ugh, this is weird." Artemis replies.

"It really is." I agree.

"And distracting. Coding and algorithm on a kiddy computer with less ram than a wrist watch is hard enough. Now I have to hear teen think in my skull?!" Roquette compalis. KF bites into a candy bar

"Lady, do you always complain when someone tries to help you?" He asks.

"Pot, Kettle. Have you met?" Artemis replies.

"Hey, hey, I do not need attitude from the newbie who drove Red Arrow off the team!" KF snaps. Artemis jumps off the desk and points at him

"That is not on me." She reminds him, before crossing her arms.

"Fate. Of the world. At stake?!" Roquette reminds them.

"She started it!" KF shouts.

"What are you, three?" I ask.

"Four, actually." Robin replies.

"Dude!" KF shouts.

"How about I just help Miss Martian and Superboy with perimeter?" Artemis suggests, already leaving.

"Good idea." Aqualad replies. Artemis walks out,

"You might cut her some slack. It was her arrow that saved your butt from Amazo." Robin says.

"What? No, that was Speedy's-I mean, Red Arrow's arrow, right?" KF asks hopefully.

"You couldn't be more wrong." I reply.

"Huh, well, still not giving her the satisfaction." KF replies.

"You know, I can still hear you." Artemis says. KF grabs his head

"GAH!" He screams. I roll my eyes

"Boys." I say.

"Like you're one to talk." KF growls and I stick my tongue out at him.

"Uh, so, how are you and Artemis related?" Robin asks.

"Sisters." I reply. Well, half.

"Figures. Matching blood and attitude." KF says, getting a glare.

"I couldn't get the Justice League." Roquette whines. I look at her and walk over with Aqualad and we stand behind her

"The virus will not be of much use if we cannot find the weapon. Can you track it?" Aqualad asks.

"My utility fog is not a weapon. Its science. Brilliant science. And of course I can track it. But I'd have to go online. Might as well rent a billboard with this address and "Assassinate me" written in neon." Roquette says. I look up at Aqualad before at Roquette. I put a hand on her shoulder

"Doctor, we will protect you." I promise. She looks at me and Aqualad before pressing a button

"Tracking fog now." She says. Then we hear this

"Mh... That boy." Artemis says. Ugh, I think I'm gonna be super sick.

"He can hear you. We can all hear you." Miss M tells her.

"Oh, I know." Artemis replies.

"That's disgusting, Artemis" I say.

"Shut up, JC."

"Miss Martian, Dr. Roquette has located the fog. Reconfigure the Bioship so that Robin and Superboy can peruse." Aqualad commands and Robin runs out of the room.
