So when Young Justice decided to take a time skip, I was pissed. Then I had a light bulb flash over my head. I would write a fanfic on it! So here it is, Chapter 1 of Young Justice: Time Rift.
M'gann was in the kitchen baking cookies. Connor was in the living room, watching static. Dick was sitting on one of the rafters above the living room, typing up a report on the Korean War. Wally was eating ice cream in his room. Artemis was shooting arrows in the shooting range with Roy. Jason was sparring with Tim in the gym. Stephanie was having Zantanna do her hair. Just an ordinary day on Mount Justice. Scratch that, as normal a day as a group of teenaged superheroes could get.
Then the smoke alarm went off. Everyone jumped down, hopped down, and ran to the kitchen, where M'gann was standing in a cloud of smoke, holding a plate of burned cookies. When everyone gathered at the kitchen doorway, M'gann smiled, held out the plate of cookies, and asked, "Anyone want a cookie?" Everyone shook their head except for Wally. Him being, well, Wally, he never saw anything wrong with food. He was usually the one to clean out M'gann's burned concoctions. Even worse, no one could stop him. Actually, Dick and Roy could. Maybe Artemis. "WALLY!" the entire team whined. "What?" he said with his mouth full of cookie. No one cringed anymore. They were all used to it. "Never mind." Dick said. And they all got to work.
Dick, Jason, Tim, and Stephanie grabbed dishcloths and used their extreme Batman- toned acrobatics to start cleaning the ceiling, which had turned grayish in color. Wally started running in circles to start cleaning the smoke. Connor lifted the refrigerator out of its place. Roy took some newspaper and Windex to clean the stainless steel of its grime. M'gann used her telepathy to animate a scrubber to scrub the burned inside of the oven clean. Artemis put away the ingredients either in the trash can or back in the cupboards. She also cleaned the cupboards. Zantanna used her magic to animate mops and brooms into cleaning the floor. Since the team was pretty big, the job was done quickly. 10 minutes, tops.
Everyone went back to their original activities. Dick perched back on his rafter, Zantanna back to doing Stephanie's hair. Jason was finished sparring with Tim, so they lingered in the living room with Tim. Roy decided shooting practice was over, Artemis agreed. Wally had finished his ice cream ages ago. M'gann had decided not to cook or bake anything for the rest of the day. "Movie?" Wally asked. Everyone nodded and got settled in on either one of the couches or the massive beanbags. M'gann sat on the loveseat beside Connor. Artemis perched on the long couch's arm, Roy on the other. Jason sat next to Tim on one of the massive beanbags. Wally dug for the remote. "Can we see the Avengers?" Connor asked. "No wait, I want to see The Hunger Games." Artemis said. "I cast my vote for The Dark Knight rises." Came Robin's voice from above. When they all looked at him, he just shrugged and said, "What? I want to see how many mistakes they make about Dad." Wally looked at him skeptically and asked, "What happened to your report?" Dick didn't reply and hopped down. He walked to the printer, which had a pretty full tray. He then took out the paper stack and said, "Done." He flopped down on the empty couch. "I vote for Twilight." Zantanna appeared with Stephanie in tow. Her blonde hair was done in waves, and when she saw Dick, she hopped over the couch to land next to him. Everyone groaned at the thought of Twilight, except M'gann, who was a real romance lover. Wally went down the list and chose The Hunger games. After the opening credits, when everyone finally settled in, the first thing that actually made them pay attention was Katniss and Gale hunting in the woods together. Roy swore as everyone looked at him. "Roy, THERE ARE KIDS HERE!" Dick exclaimed. "Oh. Sorry." He said. Artemis remained silent, and being the total hothead she was, she glared at everyone until they slowly averted their gaze to the television screen. Then they looked away from the screen a few minutes later. This time because of Katniss and Peeta kissing. Again, Artemis and Wally this time. They were a couple, and always snuck a kiss sometime in their busy days. They started making out, causing a chain reaction to Connor and M'gann. No one wanted to see anyone shove their tongues down another person's throat, and thus they went back to the movie. When Katniss found Peeta almost dead, everyone had a mental flashback of Artemis and Wally.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Start Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Wally!" Artemis cried, busting open a heavy metal door. It was dark inside, no light at all. In the middle of the room, on the floor, there was a dark shape. Artemis didn't care who it was, she just needed to find Wally. Maybe it was adrenaline, maybe it was something else entirely. The shape on the floor moaned, and moved a bit. As Artemis got closer, it was moaning "food" Yep, this is Wally. Artemis helped him up, and as she did, she took note of his scrapes, where he was bleeding, and his bruises. She swore, and Wally actually snapped awake as she did. His eyes wide open, staring at Artemis as she swore that she was going to kill slowly and painfully whoever did that to Wally. He was freaked out. But he put on a smirk and using his usual cocky tone, said, "I should get hurt more often, then. If you are going to kill them slowly and painfully." Artemis looked at him in surprise, most likely from the fact that Wally West was awake after all that beating. She lost her support, because of her wounded leg. "Look at us," She said, "A pair of wounded teenagers, trying to get out of a criminal warehouse that might burst any moment now. Where is Dick?!" Artemis moved closer to Wally, they lay on the floor, side by side, just staring at the ceiling, not talking at all. That was how Dick found them, a few minutes later. He hoisted Wally up, them Artemis. They barely got out in time, Wally supported by Dick's left arm, Artemis by his right.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dick snickered. "Yeah, wait till you get a girlfriend. Then we'll be snickering." Wally called out to Dick. "Maybe I already have a girlfriend. Maybe I don't." Dick said mysteriously, with his signature Dick Grayson/Robin smirk. Wally looked at Artemis. "He doesn't have a girlfriend." She assured him, in case there was something he missed out. "Artemis, sometimes, I just hate going to school with you." Dick now looked like a little puppy, with those irresistible puppy dog eyes of his. "Just go back to the movie, will you? I'm sick of hearing you guys argue." Stephanie said. Dick laughed and lay back down next to her.
