CHAPTER 1
Enough with the 'replacement'

Young Justice team was celebrating after their victory over Joker and Harley Quinn. Red Arrow joined the team and helped them. Everyone was happy about a new team member, everyone except Artemis. Red Arrow and Kid flash were annoying her the whole mission. And the best thing was that they did that without anyone notice it.
Megan and Zatanna saw that young archer wasn't herself on the mission and after. They were trying to talk with her but all they heard was: I'm fine, just tired.

Artemis was in her room while the whole team was in the living room. She was lying in her bed thinking about what older Archer and the speedster said to her during the mission. Words 'replacement' and 'criminal' were like an echo in her head. She tried to talk this out with Green Arrow but he was making excuses or he was just avoiding the subject. She could talk with her mom but she didn't want to upset her.

"(sigh) I need to clear my head before I kill some redhead tonight." Artemis said and was making her way to zeta tubes.

When Artemis was near the mission room she saw Green Arrow talking with Roy. She hides close enough to hear them.

"Ollie listen, I know that you think she's different than her father and sister but trust me, she's just like them. You need to get rid of her before it's too late." Red Arrow said.

"Too late? Too late for what?"

"I have a feeling that Artemis and her sister are planning how to destroy the team. When we were fighting with Joker and that crazy woman I saw Cheshire watching us."

Green Arrow looked down.

"He won't do that, we are partners." Artemis thought, waiting for Green Arrow to respond to Red Arrow's words.

"You're right...We need to get her off the team before it's too late." Ollie said looking at Roy who had a small smile.

"You've made a good decision Ollie."

Green Arrow nodded and walked away.

"Red Arrow B21."

Artemis was sitting on the floor with tears streaming down her face. She couldn't believe that her own mentor, the guy who took her in, trained her, agree to kick her out just like that. The young Archer stood up and teleported to New York City. She needed to beat something but as far away from Star City and Gotham as she could.

After one hour

Artemis was sitting on the edge of the building with her bow next to her. She stopped a few crimes. Thugs who got in her way were very stupid but she was glad that she could beat a living shit out of them. She was calmer now but the pain was still there and it was growing, minute by minute.

"Um, hello?"

Artemis turned around to see a blonde man with glasses. He had a black costume with a purple arrow pointing down on his chest. Artemis could see he had arrows and bow.
She saw that guy on the news.

"Who are you and what do you want from me?" Artemis asked coldly.

The blonde man smiled at her.

"Relax kid, I'm Hawkeye you know... the Avenger."

"AVENGER?! THEY SAVED NEW YORK COUPLE MONTHS AGO." Artemis thought.

"What do you want from me?"

"I saw you stopping crimes, you're a pretty good fighter and archer. I was thinking if you would want me to help you get better, you know like a mentor." Hawkeye said walking up to Artemis.

She stood up.

"Look kid, I know that it is hard to learn those things when you're all alone. I just want to help you cause I can see that you have ambition."

Artemis looked at him with hope. It could be a fresh start or the history could repeat.

"I really appreciate that you want to help me but...I'm from a criminal family and I've got my lesson."

"What lesson?"

"It doesn't matter how hard you're trying to help people and just be a hero when you're from a family like mine." Artemis said looking down.

"That's not true. Everyone can be a hero, it doesn't matter who your family is. It's matter who you are. And for the record one time, I tried to steal from Iron Man so...nobody's perfect." Hawkeye said.

"You really think like that?"

Hawkeye nodded.

"So what do you say, kid? Partners?" Hawkeye said pulling out a hand to her.

Artemis looked at his hand. This could be the best thing that could ever happen in her life.

"Partners." She said shaking his hand.

"Great, and what is your name?"

"Artemis."

"Goddess of archery. I'm Clint."

"Please don't call me 'goddess of archery' I hate that."

Hawkeye laughed.

"Wait a moment, how old are you Artemis."

"I'm sixteen. What about my age?"

"Nick Fury, you know the big bad one eye guy from SHIELD has a team of teen superheroes. Maybe you could go there as a team's Archer. You could learn even more about fighting and team work.

Artemis was thinking about this for a second. She wouldn't be someones 'replacement'.

"Why not."

"Great. I'll call Fury and tell him about new Archer on his team will be on tomorrows training."

meanwhile in SHIELDS Tricarrier

The team just finished their training with Black Widow. They were exhausted. She was torturing them for like three hours non-stop.

"Oh my God. I think I'm gonna die. Somebody help me!" Nova yelled, flying above his friends.

They looked like zombies.

"I really, REALLY can't believe that I'm saying this but...Sam is right. I can't feel my legs!" White Tiger said.

"Our strength flew away from us like a wind." Iron Fist said.

"Oh man. I think my arms are going to fall on the ground." Power Man said.

"You guys have a luck that you're living HERE. I need to go to my home in Queens." Spiderman said.

They were walking towards the exit.

"Team report to mission room."

"NNNNOOOO!" Everyone screamed and fell on the floor.

Mission room

"What do you want Fury?" Spiderman asked.

The rest of the team entered after their leader...well...crawled after their leader.

"You will have a new teammate. She will come to train with you tomorrow."

White Tiger (who was lying on the ground like the others) used all of her strength that was left and put her hands in the air.

"Finally another girl! I wouldn't stand another idiot here."

"HEY!" Boys yelled at their female friend.

Nick Fury smiled.

"Who is she?" Nova asked after he stopped glaring with hate at White Tiger.

"All I know is that she is Hawkeye new sidekick."

Spiderman face palmed.

"NO! Not that guy again. She's probably just annoying as him." Spiderman said.

Iron Fist stood up and placed a hand on Peter's shoulder.

"Don't judge a book by its cover, my friend."

Fury was looking at them Danny and Peter barely standing and Ava, Luke and Sam still lying on the floor.

"Ok, go get some rest. See you tomorrow on the training with-"

"NOT BLACK WIDOW!"

"-Me."

The team was looking at him for a minute and crawled out of the room.

"Teenagers."
