Turns out, no one was up for cookies.
Megan felt so left out and so avoided. While they were doing a tour, Scarlett kept inching away from her as if she was some monster. She stayed besides Robin and Aqualad the whole time, and when Megan put a hand on Scarlett's shoulder, she jerked away and avoided her at all costs. Lastly, she never took her sunglasses off. She also joked and laughed with Robin and Kid Flash, but when Megan tried to join in, Scarlett's giggles and grins wiped off her face and she went around with a blank expression. I can't read her mind; only bad guys deserve that. Megan thought. So she just stayed with Superboy most of the time. "Hey, how about you take off those sunglasses?" Kid Flash asked, and Scarlett had flinched.
"I… I can't do that…" she had replied.
"Even I take off my sunglasses! Everyone knows my secret identity!" Robin grinned at her.
"What if I have a totally weird appearance?" Scarlett asked, worried.
"You're telling that to a martian with green skin?" Megan forced a laugh.
"Hey guys!" Zatanna burst out of a certain corridor and gazed at Scarlett.
"Newbie!" Zatanna wrapped Scarlett in a hug. "What's your name?"
"Scarlett. Or Fyre." Kid Flash piped up.
Artemis punched his arm.
"What?" Kid Flash rubbed his now sore arm.
"I…. you're Zatanna, right?" Scarlett looked hopelessly lost, and Megan wanted to help her, but she was sure Scarlett would neglect her.
"I'm, uh, same school as Artemis and Robin?" Scarlett smiled a genuine smile.
The group walked along the corridor, now with Zatanna.
"Met the Justice League before?" Zatanna asked.
"Met all of them. Your dad and Flash is okay. Most of 'em are big jerks." Scarlett crossed her arms.
Big temper. Easy there, Scarlett. Megan tried telepathically talking to Scarlett.
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Scarlett screamed. "I changed my mind. I know the way around this place now, and Zatanna can show me to my room." She grabbed Zatanna's hand and stomped away.
What a crazy day.
