15:33 March 02, 2012 F.B.I. Headquarters, Washington D.C.
Wally West is never late.
Let me put emphasis on that. Never.
That was the reason why that Wally was currently reduced to sprinting through the F.B.I. head quarters building, his feet thudding on the marble floor. He ignored the elevator, instead choosing to use the stair well.
He dashed wildly toward the head F.B.I. agent's office, flinging the doors open dramatically, "Sorry, Bruce! Traffic was horri-"
He tripped on the couch by the door, falling ungracefully to the floor.
"He's really one of your top agents?" a snarky voice said from above him.
He looked up, only to greeted by a pair of dazzling grey eyes that were furrowed in a taunting manner. He jumped up, embarrassed.
It was a girl, with a thin, willowy figure and muscular arms. She had long blond hair and sparkling grey eyes, and she was wearing a fitted green tank and tight jeans that showed off her slim and muscular legs.
"Who's the new girl?" Wally asked rudely, turning toward Bruce.
He saw that his team mates were also there, holding back there laughter.
"She's going to be working with you during the Savage case. She's going to be your techie," Bruce said, his face stoic and calm.
"Roy is our techie!" Wally said, already not liking the smirk on the blonde's face.
Kaldur, who was the team leader of Wally's team, then spoke up, "Roy is… taking a break. He was angered by the events that followed the Artemis case."
The girl smirked again, which did not go unnoticed by Wally, "Who are you?"
"Artemis. You're temporary team mate," She said, grinning as Wally's eyes widened at her name.
"You're the big bad Artemis who hacked into the C.I.A. mainframe and then threatened to release missiles which were aimed at the White House?!" Wally said, outraged.
He had had a particular attachment to that case. His uncle, Barry Allen, had been in charge of the case along with Oliver Green, and, of course, Bruce, and Barry had given him frequent updates on the case because it had fascinated him that, apparently, a teenage girl had hacked the C.I.A. mainframe.
"How do you know that?" Bruce said harshly.
Wally smiled guiltily, "Uncle Barry told me about it."
"Whatever, Baywatch, I'm here to stay," she said, infuriating him even more.
Wally narrowed his eyes at her, "Fine. Whatever."
oOoOoOo
Artemis, despite the hostility of Wally, felt welcome at the F.B.I. HQ. She had only hacked the mainframe because her father had forced her too, and Bruce had a long talk with her about F.B.I. protocols and stuff. He knew her secret, and so that was why he allowed her to waltz in without a shred of training.
Her father was the infamous Sportsmaster, a heinous criminal who has eluded capture for over two decades. She had been in-training to wield a gun, and be able to open a high-security safe with-in thirty seconds. She hated being a criminal, but, her father threatened to kill her mother if she didn't follow his orders.
She felt content now. Her father was on the run. Someone had found out that he had kids, and tracked Sportmaster through Artemis and her sister, Jade. It was in this way that she was able to fix what she had done wrong, in fact, she strengthened the C.I.A. main frame. She stopped about six electronic bank fraud robberies, and that was how Bruce had tracked her down and confronted Artemis about temporarily helping during a Vandal Savage case.
"Hi… Artemis, my name's Megan!" a voice said, snapping her out of her thoughts.
Artemis turned to face the voice, and was greeted by a pair of auburn eyes and brown-red hair. It was a girl, with medium-length hair and a spray of freckles on her nose.
The girl, Megan, was smiling brightly, "I can give you a tour, if you want."
Artemis smiled gratefully, "That would be great, thanks."
oOoOoOo
"So, the room we're in now is what we call the Mission Room. We do all of our online investigations here, so this is where you'll be mainly working. It also doubles as our lounge, as you can see," Megan said, discreetly pointing over to where Wally was snoring loudly on the couch, "We don't go into the field until we're needed, so right now is pretty much our on-call time, because we're on a case, but since we're the rookie team, we have to work with a senior team who will do most of the work…"
Megan looked downcast at this, and slightly frustrated, but she didn't go into it more, "Anyway, the guy on the couch is Wally West, he's been at the F.B.I. for about three years," Megan sighed sadly, "I'm kinda the newbie on the team because I have barely any experience in police work. But, I digress, so, that's Kaldur over there," she said, pointing to a muscular man with a blond, shaved head and light brown skin, " he's our team leader, but there's rumors that he's gonna step down and give his position to Dick," Megan paused, looking around for a bit, "Whose over there!" She pointed to a slightly short man with black hair and sunglasses on his nose, "And that's Connor over there," she then pointed to a well-built, muscular man with black hair and blue eyes. Megan than smiled mischievously, and giggled, "He and I are dating… But you can't tell anyone! Inter-unit dating is strictly off-limits, but we still do it."
Artemis nodded, smiling, "So, where can I go to eat something?"
Megan brightened, "The kitchen's this way. I have some cookies in the oven right now, you want some?"
Artemis nodded again, shrugging, "Sure, why not!"
oOoOoOo
The smell of freshly-baked cookies wafted through the air, picked up by Wally's keen sense of smell when it came to food.
He bolted up, rushing to the kitchen, "Hey Megalicious! What's baking?"
He reached his hand out to take a cookie, but his hand was smacked away by Megan, "Wally! Those are for Artemis!"
Wally glared at the guilty blonde, who was smiling in amusement, "Hello, teamie!"
"Like I'll work with you," Wally said, and he turned and left, leaving behind a confused and slightly hurt Artemis.
