Yeah the new prologue with more sense :3 hopefully this will be updated a little more often than what I did last time.
Disclaimer: I don't own YJ, if I did, the show wouldn't have been cancelled, and Wally wouldn't be gone, among other things. XD
Artemis walked around the small house that she shared with her boyfriend. It was really small, only one bedroom (though her mother and Wally's mother insisted on two separate beds), but the house never seemed to be clean. Of course the fridge was never full either, but that was another problem all of it's own. She sighed as she looked at the clock for the fifth time that night. The fight between Barry and Wally was all over the news across the States, and she guessed the outcome when he got back wasn't going to be pretty. Though, to be fair, it wasn't every day that you basically got held back by your mentor, idol, and father-figure. He had been told that he was useless and then, shortly after, had been belittled by the local police to top it all off. Of course he might of gone a bit overboard when he threw off his goggles at Barry's feet, claimed that he was no longer "Kid" Flash, emphasis on the kid, and ran off. But that was over three hours ago, surely he would have ran himself ragged by now.
"Come on Baywatch, where are you?" Artemis sighed as she glanced at her phone again. She had been debating calling Dick now for an hour and a half. Ok maybe she wanted to call him up the moment Wally darted away from the scene, since Kid Idiot didn't take his com. link to "minor" things anymore. She finally gave up the mental battle with her pride and picked up the phone, finding Dick's contact. Before she could press call, their home phone started shrieking (something that was completely Wally's idea. Who needed one when they both had cells?). Artemis sighed and walked over to the phone, faintly amusing the idea that Wally was calling from some phone booth in Paris having forgotten her cell number again. Though the caller-ID was an all to familiar one to her.
"What do you want?" She snapped into the phone, feeling the person on the other side flinch at the harsh tone.
'Artemis, please." The hesitant unmistakeable tone of Barry Allen muttered on the other side pleaded. "I need to talk to Wally. He's not answering his cell phone, or his comm. I was hoping he was back by now."
"He never takes his phone in costume. Remember 'It's too much of a risk to your identity'." The former archer retorted, quoting one of many phrases that Batman had used way too often. "Besides he's not here either. I'm betting Baywatch just wants to clear his head and is probably running, Lord knows where."
"Well when he gets back, can you tel-" Barry started, but was cut off by Artemis.
"Look you can tell him yourself when he decides it's worth showing up to you again." She said, her frustration growing by the minute. "Until then, it might be better if you just backed off and didn't go all mother hen on something you caused." She didn't give the elder speedster time to answer as the promptly hit the 'end call' button and hung up the phone before moving to her cell-phone. Now her worry was increasing. She would have guessed that his first reaction would be to go to Central to talk to Iris, it's what he did, and he would never be gone this long. Best way to find someone, even if they didn't want to be found, was to call in a bat. And if said bat didn't know where the speedster was, then no one knew.
