Wally hummed softly as he scrolled through search results for his name on Google…he loved reading articles about the Flash and him, even though the reporters got his name wrong.
"The Flash and his young sidekick Flash Boy…"
Scowling, Wally pushed the back arrow, mentally cursing that particular newspaper.
Fanfiction Young Justice Archive.
What? Young Justice archive? Weren't they a covert team? No one was supposed to know about them…
Curious, he clicked the link and was instantly taken to a list of links, all with summaries outlining stories. Of them.
"Whatcha reading?"
Wally nearly jumped out of his skin as Robin suddenly appeared beside him, dark tinted sunglasses still obscuring his eyes.
"I dunno. It's called 'Fanfiction'. There's stories about us on here, Rob!" Wally scrolled through the list until he found one that read Wally W./Kid Flash. "WHAT! Everyone on here knows my secret ID! Uncle Barry's going to kill me!"
Robin quickly read through the summary. "What does Kid Flash/Robin slash mean?" he asked curiously.
Wally shrugged. "Only one way to find out." He clicked the link and started reading the first paragraph.
"Oh, my gosh…go back, go back!" Robin suddenly squeaked, face halfway between bright red and green.
Wally was confused for a moment before he caught up with Robin and choked on air, cheeks turning tomato red as he quickly pressed the back arrow.
"Well," he said after Robin didn't look like he was going to throw up. "I guess that's what 'slash' means…"
"That is so disgusting!" Robin muttered. He gagged once, but finally calmed down. "What's the Spitfire pairing?"
"Artemis Crock and Wally West romance," Wally read, before realizing what he was saying. "OH, yuck! That's even grosser than slash!"
Robin just smirked and read several summaries before his smile faded. "Robin is kidnapped…Robin is injured…Robin is nearly killed…" he muttered. "Good grief, do all these people hate me or something?"
Wally had been reading several of the 'author's notes' at the top of each story. "Nope…actually, they all seem to love you," he said, a smirk growing on his face. "Listen to this author - she said she just loves making you the damsel in distress."
"Damsel in distress?" Robin yelled. "Damsel in distress? Do they realize that I've been training with Batman for four years? That I was doing gymnastics and acrobatics since I could walk? That I've fought crooks like Joker, Poison Ivy, Penguin, and-"
"Quiet down! I'm reading," Wally ordered. "Hey, look! A bunch of the authors are saying that you're Richard Gray-"
"Okay. That's enough Fanfiction." Robin reached over and erased the search history and browser before closing the internet.
Sighing, Wally stood up from the computer and flipped on the TV. Robin flopped down in a bean bag chair and started typing on his holographic computer.
After a few silent minutes Wally's gaze slid sideways, and a grin grew on his face. "So…does this mean the next time you get hurt or something I can call you a damsel in distress?"
"No."
A/N: So…..what do you think? Funny? Lame? Boring?
Technically, on this account, this is my first story, but I've posted several Star Wars fanfictions under a different account that is DEAD now.
And, uh, I didn't mean to offend anyone with the "slash is disgusting" thing. If you write slash, I'm sorry…flame me if you want! :/
DISCLAIMER: If I owned Young Justice, it would not have been postponed until AUGUST. Grrrrrr….
