Artemis was sitting on the porch, watching a little 3yr. old- their little 3yr old play and run around in the yard. She sat their and thought of this little girl in front of her. She had his red hair and freckles while she had her olive skin and dark gray eyes. She looked up at the sky and saw a storm was coming.
" Isabelle, come inside. its going to rain." she shouted. Isabelle came running in the house. Suddenly as Artemis walked inside she heard the door close.
"Daddy!"
" Hey, Princess. You been a good girl today?" he said picking her up.
" Yup." She said with a smile on her face.
Artemis walked over and kissed her husband. " How was work babe?"
"Good. But it felt kinda long." He began swinging Isabelle up in the air.
" Wally! Stop it that . She can get hurt."
" How? You know that nobody gets hurt in my arms." She thought back more than 10 years ago in Biyala.
" True..." Their family sat at the table to eat dinner. Then it was off to bed.

Wally finally was able to put his daughter to sleep. He walked in his room and shut the door when he noticed Artemis on the bed. She was staring at the T.V. shaking. Wally looked at the screen.
"-Breaking News. A Major prison breakout has several criminals are now missing.-" They began the list of escaped criminals. One of them being- Harm. He remembered when she told him about Halloween night. How he nearly killed her and Zatanna. He remembered the fear his acher had just by recalling that night. She turn off the T.V. with the remote.
"Artemis?"
" Yes?", she said trying avoid his eyes. The speedster rushed to her side and sat on the bed.
"You okay?"
"Sure. Why wouldn't I be." she said trying to move away. Wally grabbed her arm, pulling her into his embrace, forcing her to look at him.
" I know your afraid of him."
" I- I am not afraid of him. So what. He nearly killed me. He wasn't the first. He isn't the last." she said pulling away.
" He wasn't the last.", Wally quickly added. Artemis put her hand on his cheek.
" Wally, I am not scared of...Harm. Maybe when I was in my teens, but I'm 29. I am a grown woman and I know how to take care of myself. And even if I was scared of him, you might be able ot save me but you can't protect me from everything."
" Wanna bet.", he said grabbing her hand and moving it from his face.
" Wally. Its realty. You just can't save someone, me being no expection. Especially when your married to someone who comes from a line of heroes."
" In my mind, it doesn't make a difference." He said leaning to kiss her. She was the first to pull away.
" Can we go to sleep now. Its getting late."
" Sure, beautiful." He kissed her forehead, changed his clothes and layed next to her. Wally knew the truth. He knew she was scared. And he was right. He wrapped his arms aroung her tightly and fell asleep. It took hours for Artemis to fall asleep. The fear inside her was killing her. For a second, she felt like waking Wally up so he could tell her everything was going to be okay. But, she didn't want him to know. It was 4:17 when she falling when to sleep.
