AN: I loved writing Redemption so much that I just had to write a sequel. I can't wait to see how you guys take this. Please Review and comment. I don't own any DC Comics Characters, but Erin and Abby are mine.
Chapter 1
Bored. There's no other way to put it.
I sat in the main hall of the Cave in front of the computer. Wally and Artemis were out on a date. Roy was on patrol with Oliver. Conner was working on his bike, M'gann was with J'onn and Dick was checking the systems around the cave.
Abby, the lucky freaking duck, was in Atlantis with Kaldur attending the Queen's baby shower. Dick and I had made a special system for Abby that wasn't too bulky and last for days.
So, while everybody else was having fun, I was playing solitaire.
I had one of the most advanced computer systems that even Bill Gates would be jealous of and I was playing solitaire.
How pathetic.
"What are you doing?"
"Holy crap!"
M'gann had appeared behind me suddenly, causing me to fall out of my chair. She helped me up and picked up the chair with her mind.
"Hello, Megan! I forgot you were easily spooked."
I ignored that statement and asked, "Why do you do that? That 'Hello, Megan' thing?"
"It's a long story," said Artemis when she and Wally came in.
"Thank goodness everyone's coming back. I think I just beat the world record for most games of solitaire lost in a three hour period," I said.
"You had one of the most advanced computers in front of you and you played solitaire?" Wally asked. Artemis elbowed him in the stomach.
"Dick was checking the systems so anything fun was out of the question," I explained.
"I know, I'm a fun sucker," Dick said as he landed feet first in front of us.
"Yup, and I think you took three hours on purpose."
"Of course. Knowing you, you would've hacked into the Pentagon."
"Actually, no," I corrected. "I just got on Bruce's good side, no way am I risking all that hard work. Besides, Pentagon's too cliché. I would've gone more FBI or CIA. Comparing Criminal Minds and the real BAU would've been fun."
Everyone gave me that "what planet are you from?" look. Even M'gann.
"You know," I said to break the silence, "you guys shouldn't judge me considering we're a band of misfits."
"Sorry, Erin," M'gann said. "You're right. We all have things that we do that are considered embarrassing. I re-watch the only season of Hello, Megan!"
"I reread and re-watch Alice in Wonderland," Artemis admitted.
Dick went next.
"I collect old computer encyclopedias and laugh at the mistakes."
Everyone turned and looked at Wally expectantly.
"I don't do weird things," he said.
Artemis crossed her arms threateningly.
"Okay, okay," Wally threw his hands up. "Sometimes I look at old baby pictures of me dressed up as Flash."
There was a moment of stunned silence, then everyone but Wally bursted with laughter.
"I thought we weren't judging here?" Wally accused over the laughter.
"I'm sorry," I said bent over, trying to breathe.
"Come one, stud muffin," Artemis said, pulling Wally towards the kitchen, "play times over."
"I'm starting to think we're learning too much about each other," Dick said.
"I think it brings the team closer together," I commented.
An idea popped in my hand and I felt dumb for not thinking of it earlier. I started off to the dorm hall.
"Where are you going?" M'gann asked.
"To my room to change into my swimsuit and then to the beach for some alone time," I answered.
"You haven't had enough of that?" Dick asked.
"It's easier to think."
