Chapter 1 - Midnight Showers

It was almost mid-night and the team had barely gotten back from a mission that obviously went horribly wrong.

The team had to keep track of Clayface, a monster that was made out of clay and could manipulate his body. Batman had the team track it so that he could run an analysis on the sample of clay he had scraped off of the floor, and figure a way on how to detain it. After the team had failed to track Clayface and actually get ambushed by it, they decided to look for it and fight it. After a battle with it, they would bring the monster back to a containment cell in the mountain and send him to a high callibere prison. Well, that's not how things went down.

The team had little to no knowledge of the monster's powers. They had no clue that the monster could take shape of any one. They got fooled and beat one by one until Kaldur was the only one standing. After Kaldur was knocked unconcious, Batman broke through the window and stunned the threat.

Now that the team was concious and back in the cave, all of them just wanted to relax and face the humiliation of being fooled by clayface to themselves in their rooms. Especially Wally.

Wally had been the one to suffer the most humiliation out of all of them. He had been tricked into believing that M'gann actually loved him. Just like an idiot, he had fallen for the trap. That had served him as a wake up call. He knew that M'gann would never love him, so he hung his head in shame and walked slowly to his room.

Wally pushed the door open and walked inside. The room, unlike his personality was not messed up. The room was clean and organized. The walls had several posters on The Beatles, Justice League, and The Flash. He had a desk were a black laptop lay, along with a phone with a black casing. This place gave Wally comfort and warmth, but Wally knew that this room wouldn't be enough to dowse the emotional flames he was feeling. So instead he took to the shower.

He stripped himself off of all of his clothes and stepped into the shower. He set the settings for hot and let the water engulf him.

Thoughts swam through his head as he washed off the clay off of his red hair. Why did he feel so burdened after the huge let down in the wharehouse with Clayface? Why did he feel betrayed and heartbroken? He knew that M'gann didn't like him. It was clear as water that she fauned over Superboy! And Superboy didn't even pay attention to her! All he did was grunt and scowl at everyone!

Wally let a tear slip as he sank to his knees. He was angry and depressed. M'gann didn't like him, but he liked her. No, scratch that, he loved her. His heart flipped with joy when he saw her, and it crippled when he saw her starring at Superboy with intense caring. Wally's hands clenched up as he thought of the possibilty that M'gann and Superboy together as a couple. At the thought of that, more tears fell from his eyes. And as he cried, someone from the room next door felt his emotions raging.

M'gann bathed herself when she felt an overwhelming feeling of heartbreak and sadness. She wondered from where it came from. She didn't want to peak into someones mind, she just wanted to know who was having those strong emotions. So she put her hands to her temples and concentrated.

Everyone was asleep, though one person remained awake.

"Wally?"

M'gann felt around the edges of Wally's conciousness and observed the emotions.

There was heartbreak, sadness and deep self loathing. M'gann gasped and put her hands to her mouth. She didn't know how someone could experience such emotions. A tear slipped from her eye. These emotions were affecting her own emotions! She wanted to know why he was feeling these emotions, though it was rude to intrude into other people's privacy.

M'gann sighed and cut off the connection, she couldn't risk it. She couldn't risk their friendship being destroyed just because she got curious. So M'gann finished showering and went to bed. While slowly drifting asleep, she thought of her red haired friend and what could have caused those saddening emotions.
