So…yeah -coughs-

I messed up, I said sophomore when they're actually seventeen, not fifteen and…yeah, sorry about the other thing too…I was, well…never mind.

-winces- Sorry about my blunder, I guess I was more tired then I thought I was when I made them fifteen instead of seventeen like they were supposed to be.

Disclaimer: I don't own, so I don't get sued, yay!

Johnny stared up at the ceiling tiredly, trying to ignore the sounds of her brother up and about, getting ready for their first day of school. She let out a sigh of resignation when she heard their mother finally moving around upstairs and threw the covers off of her to get up.

She lazily gathered her clothes, silently wondering how long Vic had been in the shower before shrugging and making her way up the stairs to take advantage of the bathroom up there because, really, she wanted a lock on the door to her bathroom. "Which means I'll have to ask Mom about that later..." she rubbed her eyes tiredly.

"Hey, Mama…" she muttered when she climbed the stairs, seeing her mother taking things out of the fridge and getting ready to cook. "Hey there, Johnny baby," Johanna beamed up at her tired looking daughter as she slowly made her way up the stairs.

"I'm going to cook for you two and pack your food, but as soon as you guys are finished getting ready, we need to head out the door, okay? Work calls," Johnny heard her mother call up the stairs, only rapping her knuckles on the wall as a response to let her mother know she heard her.

Opening the door and faintly hearing her brother and mother talking as she closed the door to the bathroom, she let out a sigh and took off her clothes after starting the shower.

"Who was that boy you two were talking to yesterday, Vic?" Vic paused in eating his egg sandwich to look at his mother blankly before it dawned on him who she was talking about. "You mean that red headed boy Johnny was talking to?" after getting a nod from his mother, he looked thoughtful, "I think Johnny said his name was Rally…no, no, it was…ah," he furrowed his brows in confusion as he took a bite of his sandwich. "Oh, yeah, his names Wally, if I'm remembering correctly."

"Has Johnny made him your guys friend already?" there was amusement in Johanna's voice as she finished making the rest of their breakfast just as they heard the shower upstairs stop. "If she hasn't already, then she'll most likely try when we get to school," he shrugged, finishing his sandwich just as Johnny came down the stairs, toweling off her hair as she muttered to herself.

"What do you mean, when you get to school?"

Johnny grinned at her mother through her wet hair and towel. "Wally goes to the school you enrolled us in!" Seeing Vic's brow furrow in confusion again, Johanna shook her head at Johnny in amusement. "What school? I didn't know you enrolled us already!" Vic frowned at his mother, obvious displeasure in his eyes.

"You're not as nosy as I am, that's why you didn't know. But jeez, Vic, are you that clueless? I said North Central yesterday," she ruffled Vic's drying brown hair affectionately, making their mother laugh as Vic scowled at Johnny, smoothing his hair back into it's normal slicked back do.

"Well, you said we should go as soon as we're done getting ready, yes?" Johnny said brightly as she grabbed one of the egg sandwiches that were on the table and munching on as she waited for her mother and brother's reactions and responses.

"Yes, we probably should," Johanna said as she packaged the rest of the last two egg sandwiches and handed them to Johnny and Vic along with their lunches. "Do you have your books?"

"I packed them last night for the both of us," Johnny said brightly, bringing up one backpack and a satchel, the backpack a simple looking black and red one she handed to Vic and the black satchel decked with peace signs and hero symbols, she kept for herself. "Ooh!" Johanna cooed and hugged Johnny to her tightly as she saw the Batman and Flash key chains attached on it.

"I love you too, Mama, but really, we need to go or you'll be late for work." Johnny said, trying to push Johanna off of her as Vic snickered in the background, the door already open. "Oh, I suppose." there was mock resignation in her voice as she let go of her daughter and picked up a bag, walking to the door and grabbing her keys.

"I don't know my schedule yet, but as soon as I do, I'll text you guys. And I want to know both of your schedules also. And when you get home, you'll both put it on the big calendar on wall in the hallway, okay?" she said as she opened the car and both of them climbed in. "Oh God, we're doing the calendar slash schedule thing again? Isn't that going a little over kill?" Johnny said, giving the house a disdain filled look.

"She's right, we're not in Gotham anymore, so is it really necessary?" Vic leaned on the seats, looking at their mother from the back. "Extremely necessary," Johanna gave both of them frowns as they sulked.

"I realize this isn't Gotham anymore, but there are still villains here, and I want to be able to look at that big piece of paper and know where you are, who you're with and what you're doing all the time." she said, hearing Johnny sigh and Vic let out a grumble but hearing no complaints being made, making her smile.

"If it makes you happy," Vic said as they pulled out of the driveway, thinking of the special schedule their mother made and mentally wincing.

"Yeah, sure…" Johnny stared out the window with a sullen look on her face as she watched buildings go by. "Oh, you know I'm just trying to protect you two with the best of my ability." Johnny let out a sigh and gave her mothers hand a gentle squeeze before turning to look at her, Vic leaning on the seat with his hand on top of theirs.

"I know, Mama," Johnny let out a sigh as they let go of each others hands. "Have a fun day at work today, we'll…see you when we see you." Johnny said, climbing out of the car and closing the door, Vic following suit and adjusting the backpack.

"See you, babies, have a nice day at school!" Johanna waved at them and blew them kisses before driving off. "See you, have a nice day at work!" they both called, waving as their mother left the parking lot.

"…we're early," Johnny said, staring up at the vacant looking school with only a few students and teachers walking around. "Well, a nurses job starts early, right?" Vic shrugged, feeling Johnny wrap her arm around his waist, and wrapping his arm around her shoulders.

"So how many classes do you think we have?" Vic asked as they moved to sit on the steps to the school. "Oh, probably Art and English, maybe even P.E." Johnny said, stretching her right leg out before sitting cross legged on the ground and settling herself down in front of Vic. "Probably," he nodded.

"What about Science?" Johnny wrinkled her nose at the word, "We might have Science together, knowing you though…I sincerely hope we do." she giggled, moving away when he put his foot on her back. "No! Vic, you put a footprint on my favourite Flash sweater!" she laughed, taking her sweater off to try and brush off the dirt.

"My foot slipped," he grinned up at her, noticing a blonde girl coming toward them.

"Oh, Hello, I've never seen you two before." she smiled, obviously trying to be polite. "Are you two…" she looked down at the papers she held in her hands, "Victoria and Johnny Mulwain?" she asked, eyes moving from the papers to the two identical looking twins before her.

"Oh, yeah, Vic." she tugged on Vic's sleeve, "And I'm Johnny," she smiled at the blonde girls obvious surprised. "But I thought you were Victoria and he was Johnny?" she had a confused look on her face as she looked at them.

"Oh yeah…our mother misnamed us when we were born. We were supposed to be Victoria and Johnny but then we became Johnny and Victoria," Johnny shrugged, Vic not looking affected at all at having been misnamed.

"Oh…well, this are your schedules here," she handed the schedules to Johnny, noticing she didn't immediately give Vic's his.

"Four classes together." Johnny declared, handing Vic's schedule to him. "Art, English, Science and P.E." she added before smiling at the blonde, "And who are you, exactly?" she asked, an eyebrow raised.

"Oh! I'm Samantha Kingsley, I was told to show you around the school and answer any questions you had," She smiled, eyeing Vic curiously. "How come, uh…" she looked uncomfortable and as though she stepped out of line. "Vic doesn't talk?" Johnny grinned, ignoring the nudge she got from him.

"Shy, doesn't like meeting new people, doesn't open up unless he knows you." she said, cracking her jaw in thought but smiling when she saw Samantha's grossed out look.

"So are you ready for your tour?" Samantha plastered on a smile before a sudden shout caught their attention and Johnny and Vic were hugged by Wally West, making Samantha scowl in response to Johnny's shriek of surprise and Vic's "Oof!"

"What's up, my buddies?" Wally grinned at them both, tightening his arms around their shoulders before relaxing again, ignoring the look Samantha was giving them.

"Wally!" Johnny gasped, hugging him back, "Is school almost starting already?" she added with a giggle. "What do you want, West?" Johnny gave Samantha a surprised look. "Oh wow, rude much?"

"Just came to show my new friends around the school," Wally suddenly looked nervous for some reason, making Johnny narrow her eyes and Vic tilt his head.

"Can I talk to you for a moment, Mulwain?" Samantha pulled her from Wally's grasp before she could reply and took them a few feet away from Wally and Vic.

"Look, you shouldn't talk to West if you know what's good for you." Samantha said, sending a glare over her shoulder at Wally. "What's good for me?" Johnny questioned, an eyebrow raising. "Why, exactly?"

"Duh," Samantha rolled her eyes as if everything should have been obvious. "West's a freak, of course." Johnny looked taken aback by her words, hearing the obvious disdain and hate in her voice. "All he does is brag about how special he is and he's done nothing, absolutely nothing, to show us how he's special. And every time someone tries to talk to him or hang out with him, he always leaves-always claiming he has something important to do but," Samantha was glaring at a saddened looking Wally, Vic looking awkward as he patted Wally on the shoulder.

"West is nothing but a stuck up asshole who thinks he's the greatest and hasn't done anything with his life. Nobody likes him and if you want to fit in, you'll stop all contact with him," Samantha narrowed her eyes on a incredulous looking Johnny.

All Johnny could do was gap at Samantha in surprise and anger at her words, she knew people were still bad here but really, this was almost like going to school back in the Narrows. "Seriously, labelling someone a outcast just because he has important things to do?" Johnny burst out, surprising Samantha and making her jump back. Looking over Samantha's should at Wally's equally as surprised expression, Johnny turned furious eyes on Samantha. "An-anyways, about that-" Johnny cut Samantha off with a raised hand. "I'm ready for my tour," she said.

"O…okay?" Samantha looked eager to show them around when she noticed Johnny walking toward Wally and Vic.

"So what are we going to see first?" Johnny asked, picking up her satchel as she linked her arm with Wally's. "But-but what about…" he looked at Samantha in a questioning way. "I'd rather be friends with you and be labelled a loser for being who I am, then with someone as bitchy as her and be someone I'm not just to try and fit in." Johnny said brightly.

Wally stared down at Johnny's grinning face and then at Vic's smile before grinning at them both. "Well then, let's move onwards!" he said dramatically, looping his other arm through Vic's arm and moving towards the school entrance.

Before they could get very far, they heard Samantha let out a huff and call out to them, "Fine! Be losers for all I care!"

They completely ignored her as Wally dramatically showed them around the school, finally stopping when he realized that they had their schedules already. "Hey, lemme see you're scheds," he said, grabbing Johnny and Vic's schedules from them and looking them over.

He suddenly started laughing at seeing Vic's name at the top of his paper, "You're names Victoria?" he gasped, making Vic let out an annoyed sigh as he patiently waited for his laughs to die away.

"Our mother was out of her mind after giving birth to us, so I ended up getting Vic's name and he ended up getting mine," Johnny shrugged when Wally finally calmed but and was only trying to catch his breath now.

"What, she took the morphine the doctors always offer?" he grinned at Johnny before looking back down at the schedules. "From what she said, yeah." Vic shrugged off Wally's arm, listening as Wally let out a disappointed noise before his eyes dimmed as he caught sight of their age up.

"No way man! We aren't going to have any of our classes together!" he moaned, burying his face in Johnny's hair, Vic shaking his head in amusement at his antics as Johnny reached up and pat him on the head sympathetically.

"It's okay, Wally, us being seventeen won't affect our relationship," she said, suppressing the urge to giggle as Wally snorted, lifting his head from her shoulder to look at their schedules again. "How come one of your classes are Music?" he questioned as they headed toward the office to get their assigned lockers.

"Hmm," Johnny looked at Wally, amused before answering him. "I like singing, so I thought, why not take Music?" she shrugged.

In response, Wally grinned at them both, "We are going to be tight, the best-est trio." he said, noticing Vic frowning down at his schedule. "'Sup?"

"Vic's not too good at Science," Wally felt Johnny shrug before she was stepping into the office and talking to the secretary, leaving Wally and Vic alone together.

"Really? I'm a genius at Science, so I could help you. Even thought we're at different grades, Science is easy." Wally rolled his eyes, looking at the slightly taller boys schedule again. "That'd be a help, Johnny only knows enough to pass," Vic chuckled quietly. "Eh…I'm not so good at English, because of the, you know…poems we sometimes do." Wally shrugged.

"Oh, we could help you with English. It's in our genes," Vic's eyes sparkled as Wally laughed at his attempt at a joke.

"You would?" Wally raised an eyebrow at Vic, making him shrug. "Yeah, what are friends for, right?" he smiled at Wally making him grin. "I knew we were gonna be tight."

"Maybe Johnny's right, we could use a friend," Vic thought with a fond smile as his sister came towards them.

"So boys, cheating on me with each other already?" Johnny chirped, eyes sparkling when Vic laughed and Wally sputtered, "Dude!"

Yesterday, Mount Justice.

"I'm here!"

"You're late," Batman's voice said, interrupting Wally as he zoomed into sight and stood next to his team mates, looking sheepish. "Yeah, sorry, I was-"

"Later, right now, we have a mission for you." Batman said, eyes narrowed as Wally saw two Green Lanterns standing a little ways behind Batman.

"Hey, GL-One, GL-Two! I haven't seen you two in ages!" Wally said brightly, making the lighter skinned Green Lantern chuckle. "By forever, meaning a couple months ago?" his partner shook in his head in amusement at the young speedster. "Then yeah, it's been a while."

"What bring the two of you here, if you don't mind me asking." Kaldur asked politely, wanting to steer the conversation back to the mission. "This is what brings us here," the darker coloured Green Lantern held up a box, opening it and showing them one of the most powerful weapons in the universe, two Green Lantern rings.

The two rings glowed brightly in the small box, the feeling coming from it felt as though they were searching for their owners.

"Woah…" Wally and Robin gaped at the two rings in awe, thoughts whirling around their minds.

"This ring fell to earth a few weeks ago," GL-One told them, "We checked with the Council and they told us that they had nothing to with these rings coming to Earth. Which can only mean that that two new Green Lanterns will be appearing here,"

"Awesome!" Wally grinned broadly. "Yeah, cool. So what does that have to do with us?" Conner asked, an annoyed look on his face. The two Green Lanterns looked at each other a little hesitantly, knowing full well about Superboy's temper.

"They want you to protect and guard the rings." Batman's voice spoke up, making them looked shocked and Superboy looking angry. "Us? But why us?" Megan asked, voicing everyone's thoughts.

"Because until the bearers of these rings accepts their powers, the rings must be kept safe."

"And we'd do it ourselves, but there has been trouble that we must attend to."

"Why don't you take it with you guys?" Artemis questioned, only to get a negative response. "The rings have to be made available to the owners at all times. We are not allowed to deny someone their powers just because we are not able to give them."

"So we're babysitting a piece of jewellery," Superboy growled. "Pretty much," one of the Green Lanterns grinned at them brightly, only making Conner grunt and look away from them. "Is he always this cheery?" the same Green Lantern grumbled to his partner, only getting an exasperated look in return.

"We would be honoured to guard such a powerful tool," Kaldur said quickly, before any of his team mates could say anything else, he took the box containing the rings. "Yeah, absolutely, but aren't there supposed to be only a couple of you each sector?"

"Yes, but apparently, fate has other plans in store."

Both of the Green Lanterns were gone before they could be questioned any more, Batman having disappeared also.

"So, Wally, why were you late this time?" Robin smirked at Wally, everyone expecting him to make up some excuse. Wally simply blinked at Robin in confusion before his eyes lit up in remembrance. "Oh, the reason why I was late was because I meet two new friends!"

They watched as he grinned in excitement, "They just moved down the block from me, they're twins!"

"Oh, you meet new neighbours," Artemis said, nodding her head once he said 'Just moved'.

"No, I meet new friends," Wally said, giving Artemis a slight glare.

Meh…still thinking of how I should have re-read it or had someone beta it for me before I posted it.

Review, please?
