And i'm sorry i didn't update like I said i would, I've been seriously busy lately. I will try and give you another story soon as possible, but my schedule is un-predictable, so no promises.

KC JADE WEST (Target)
Parents: Artemis and Wallace West
Siblings: Brady West (Brother; Oldest- 22 years old)
Christopher West (Brother; 2nd Oldest- 18 years old)
Bart West (Brother; 3rd Oldest- 15 years old)
KC West is Young Justice's smart, snarky, tough stubborn, and witty archer. The guys like her because she is attractive and cool, but they also fear her because she can and will crush them.
She is more than willing to sacrifice anything for her teammates, even her life, as demonstrated in "All-or-Nothing". She is said to have a problem with "slamming"(as Brady and Chris call it) people, meaning if you say something to her that offends her, she will retaliate with a nasty comeback.
Although usually fearless, KC can be afraid of things as well, like the time she practically jumped into Max's arms on her surprise party, and everyone was dressed as clowns... She then got out and started beating them into a pulp.
In battle, KC can often be seen "playing" with her opponents, whether it's flirting, or teasing them, sometimes even messing with their trust in their team.
Just like her father, she is always quick to joke and comment lightly upon any situation that the Team found themselves in. Often extremely impatient and impulsive, KC possesses an inclination toward recklessness, to the point of jumping into situations without forethought—a trait which often left him in mortal danger. And just like her mother, KC conceals her defensive nature with an aggressive attitude, exhibiting a wild temperament that is apparent when people argue or belittle her. She readily involves herself in confrontations with little to no hesitance.
She, along with her best friend Max, are often teased of liking or dating each other, and even though KC is quick to deny any romantic feelings for the flirt she calls best friend, there is no denying any romantic chemistry between the two.
When KC was born, she had a twin brother. However, both were seriously ill, and only one made it out. Both of their hearts stopped at the exact same minute, but only KC's began beating again- after they took her off of the machine. And, even crazier than that, KC was completely fine, as if nothing ever happened. Her fever was down, she was breathing on her own... It still flabbergasts the doctors till this day.
KC's mother was murdered when she was five months old. Her oldest brother, Brady, was taking her outside to play under their babysitter's orders. The 7 year old was helping KC off the last step when a blood dripped into her hair, a few seconds after they reach the grass, Artemis's(their mom) body slid off the roof covered in blood, gutted, and hanging. Brady was petrified, only being able to scream bloody murder but managed to grab KC and clutch her to his chest to prevent her from seeing the terrible sight. Dick, the babysitter, ran outside carrying his 8 month old son, Max, who must have woken up from Brady's screams. He put Max in the play pen and ran outside, slipping on their mom's blood, but got up and picked up the two siblings and ran them inside. He called 9-1-1 and their father, Wally. The police still hasn't found the killer and gave up on the case, 4 years ago. Their father had been working his butt off since, trying to keep the family from plummeting into poverty. KC has been experiencing dreams of the sight, without knowing the lady in her dreams is her mother, saying "Shoot Straight" over and over and over again. They all know the lady is their mother, but Brady asked them not to tell her, well more liked beg. When asked why, Brady didn't give an answer, instead, he just told them don't.
When KC was 13 her dad came to pick her up from school due to flu. They were walking to his green pick up truck when she was shoved. She looked up from the ground, and saw her dad on the ground holding his side, with a bloody hand. He was shot. KC hurried up and grabbed his cell out of his coat pocket and called 9-1-1, but he died on the operating table. Ever since, Brady has been the legal guardian and he and the second oldest have been handling the bills, working their butts off to pay the rent and get the food, but sometimes that isn't enough.

Brady Rudolph West
Parents: Artemis and Wallace West
Siblings: Christopher West (Brother; 2nd Oldest- 18 years old)
Kent West (Brother; 3rd Oldest- 16 years old)
KC West (Sister; Youngest- 15 years old)
Brady, unlike Chris and Bart, is rather mature. After his mother's death, he felt the need to be so. After all, it was just his father taking care of the four of them and Brady was the oldest, so he felt it was his responsibility to let Chris, and KC, and Kent to experience a child hood while he helped out around the house. However, he does have his immature moments, like teasing KC and Kent, or helping KC in revenge on Kent or Chris, but for the most part, Brady is very much an adult. He learned to cook for his father's sake, he cleaned up after KC sometimes, and watched her and Kent and Chris. He is very nurturing, and cares about his siblings more than himself, and their well being. That's why he didn't any of them to tell KC the women he was dreaming about was their mother in fear it might destroy her, or she'd have to go to therapy.
Brady is very protective of his siblings, and after the death of their dad, he refused to let them go into the hero-ing business like their father had promised them in fear of them dying, but that didn't stop them from doing it, they just went behind his back. After finding out, he grounded all three of them, but didn't pull them out, in fact, he joined, but just not on the field team. No, he stayed at the base and was the head paramedic.
When Brady was 7 years old, he was watching taking his youngest sibling, KC, out back to play. He was helping her off the last step when blood dripped into her hair. Not noticing, the kept going. When her foot touched the grass, their mother's gutted and blood covered body dropped from the patio back roof. Brady was so terrified, he couldn't to anything but scream and hold KC so she couldn't see the sight. His screaming woke up KC's best friend, Max who was only 8 months old at the time, and caught the attention of their babysitter, Dick. Dick ran outside carrying Max, seeing the sight, he set Max down in the play pen and ran outside, slipped on the blood, and carried Brady and KC back inside the house. He called 9-1-1 and their father, Wally, who has been carrying the slack till he died.
Wally died 13 years later, when KC was 13. Brady was in college at the time, while Bart and Chris were in school. Wally had come to the school to pick up KC when he was shot. Brady was a called out of school to come and pick up KC, so he came to the school to see KC sitting on the school bench with a blanket wrapped around her and was just staring at the ground with a blank expression. There was a paramedic there, waiting beside her, immediately Brady was worried. He ran over to his sister and hugged her tight while he was filled in on the situation. He was driving KC home when he got the call that Wally died on the operating table. He hung up and pulled over, telling KC that their father wasn't coming home. Brady sat their, holding KC as she balled her eyes out. Brady didn't cry until that night. He became the legal guardian, and has been watching over them since with some assistance from the Grayson's.
