So I just realized that in the last chapter I wrote: 'please leave me' and forgot to add 'a review' :/ Incredible, two words removed, and all of a sudden I sound bitter and angry, instead of kind.

Man, I really need to recheck some things. Anywho! Many of you were expecting Behind it All, but I felt like writing something a bit darker, even though I personally feel like the only word to describe this is: pathetic...I don't know why exactly, it's just that...I try to write action scenes, and I only feel like I'm slowing the plot down.

I mean, if you're writing a conversation, and you're trying to convey urgency, adding what the character is doing just seems to slow it down, making it a lame attempt at an action scene. So hopefully people understand exactly why I completely tank at writing fight scenes...not to mention the fact that I'm not really savvy on fighting moves, so pardon my naivety :D

My many excuses aside, it's not exactly a short chapter, but in comparison to my other stories, this story will feature shorter chapters, mainly because they all deal with an underlying theme, and maybe at the end, it'll get longer.

Also, right now, I haven;t decided if this is a Spitfire Story...I have yet to decide...aren't I ever so decisive? I would appreciate if people could put down their opinions about this, but other than that, please enjoy, and leave me a review! :D

Oh, and maybe someone can help clarify this conundrum for me. On the CN website, it lists Artemis as: Cissie King? ! What the heck is that supposed to mean? I mean, I thought it was established that Artemis was Artemis Crock, but it seems that either we've got a very bad troll, or someone reaaally enjoys messing with our minds :/ Or, this was old info...and CN forgot to update their stuff, which sounds more plausible.

Ansa88: [Both reviews] Yeah, Artemis really doesn't have the best of luck does she? Thanks! Don't worry, you won't have to kill anyone, since it's being continued! :D Thanks so much! Glad you're liking it! Well, you've got more, and I hope you enjoy it!

Ash Veran: Hmm, yeah, she isn't happy, that's for sure, just check out the first line in the chapter! Oh yeah, we all know the truth ;) Enjoy the chapter!

Ninja in Training: Aww, thanks so much! Yeah, clearly noted Artemis is really cranky :/ Yep, I'm continuing it, so please enjoy!

The Endless Walker: Thanks! Enjoy the chapter!

Shizuku Tsukishima 749: Do you have a nickname? It's incredible that I fail at typing your name :/ Anywho! Thanks a bunch! Yep, Robin's gotta speak the truth :D well, here's more, so enjoy!

Everyone else: Please enjoy and don't forget to review!

Bird Boy, you're so dead. Artemis growled, nocking more arrows onto her bow, and firing at the environmentalists. They managed to dodge it, but they still went down hard, allowing the rest of the team to advance.

Did I strike a nerve? Robin smirked, doing a roundhouse kick to one of the goons he was fighting. Artemis was clearly riled up by something, though no one could tell exactly what it was. The environmentalists were left fending themselves off, while Sportsmaster just disappeared into the shadows, but no one considered him to be an issue, except for Artemis, who was trying to locate the hated man.

Psh, are you kidding me? Wally exclaimed sarcastically, dodging one guy's attempt to attack him using a branch. She's never this kind to me!

West, I can make a perfect hit to you from here without moving a millimetre, right now, if you don't shut up. Artemis threatened, nocking more arrows.

Enough! Aqualad was once again the voice of reason, his voice somewhat strained as he tried to not only keep up with the conversation, but also take on two guys at once.

How about instead of murdering us, you focus on them! Superboy snapped to Artemis, as he released a feral growl and jumped another environmentalist.

"Hopefully that guy has insurance." Wally flinched, hearing a lot of cracks from that the guy Superboy attacked.

Suddenly Artemis screamed out. Everyone on the team looked towards her direction, even Wally, and they saw Artemis fending herself from Sportsmaster, who had managed to catch her unaware, and they jumped down from the tree, fighting.

Wally just rolled his eyes and continued fighting before anyone could take advantage of his loss of attention. Of course the newbie had not been paying attention to her surroundings and allowed herself to get caught by surprise by Sportsmaster.

The rest of the team assured themselves that Artemis was holding on and continued fighting, allowing Artemis and her hated father to continue sparring.

"You haven't improved at all. I would've at least expected you to keep your form, but it seems that you've gotten worse. Betrayal often does that." Sportsmaster smirked under his mask, grabbing a baseball bat from the duffle bag on his back, and started swinging towards her.

"Funny, I was going to say the same about you." Artemis growled. "Except I wasn't going to call it betrayal, more like you've become more heartless, if that was possible."

Sportsmaster narrowed his eyes. "You're going to pay for your insolence, girl. I will teach you a lesson so bad, you won't ever forget it." He lunged, taking a swing at her head.

Artemis didn't know how, but being the hero made her bolder to stand up to her father than she had ever been able to do for years. She easily dodged his swing, sidestepping him. "If your previous teachings did nothing to me, what makes you think that this time it'll work?"

"Because this time, I'll emotionally cripple you if you dare defy me AGAIN!" Sportsmaster lost his temper and swung the bat wildly towards Artemis, but with full force. Fortunately, Artemis once again managed to step out of the way, but went a step further and kicked him forward, leading to him his balance and stumbled. However, the whole team had heard Sportsmaster's last line, and they all had their brows furrowed in confusion, and distrust.

And yet, Artemis was too engrossed in the fight to notice that she was being overheard by her teammates. "Because all these years, you've been doing what exactly?" Artemis retorted. Now she was becoming infuriated, and that made her more careless to her surroundings.

"And you thought she was mean to you." Robin whispered to Wally, smirking.

"Dude!" Wally shushed Robin, trying to continue listening to the conversation. The environmentalists had been all knocked out, so they were just watching.

Sportsmaster though, had realized that the heroes were listening in. He smirked and drove his point home, "I don't give out tactics to my enemies."

Artemis looked confused. "What the hell are you talking-" Artemis then followed his line of sight, saw the rest of the team, all looking at her with betrayal in their eyes. Artemis turned to her friends and started to explain to them "Guys-"

Sportsmaster took his opportunity and grabbed the bat he had dropped, standing up.

Megan then screamed out "Artemis, behind you!"

And before anyone could move to help, those that were willing to help, Artemis fell unconscious, due to Sportsmaster's baseball bat hitting the back of her head. He smirked and then ran away, carrying the trunk that the environmentalists had walked in with, and his own suitcase.

"What the heck just happened?" Superboy asked, confused.

"I don't know, but whatever it is, that little impostor has the answer." Wally growled, and was resisting the urge to yell out to everyone 'I told you so.'

"But we still need to get her to the mountain." Kaldur stated, going near Artemis and checking for her pulse, while M'gann, who had instantly rushed over, had been checking the back of her head for injuries.

"She could be faking all of this!" Wally exclaimed. "She's in cahoots with him! Why would you want to help the enemy?"

"Look KF, I don't trust her either, but she deserves the benefit of the doubt." Robin explained.

"I never doubted that she wasn't to be trusted!" Wally retorted.

"Wally, she's, she must have a reason for this...do you really think Artemis is evil, after all she's done?" Megan asked, quietly, but enough to be heard.

"She's a damn good actress, and plus, can you seriously see her as being kind?" Wally shook his head. He also recalled in Bialya, and all about her father wanting her to kill people. He held back on saying this, planning on showing how capable he was by revealing this when she least expected it.

"We'll discuss this at the cave. Now we need to get her some medical attention" Kaldur explained, coming back to stand with them, and as he saw Wally about to counter what he said, he added. "Yes, we are going to help her. She deserves that."

Wally just sighed as he saw Superboy pick up the unconscious archer, and follow Megan back to the ship. Robin and Aqualad also went towards the bioship, talking in a whisper. Wally resignedly followed, wondering what the hell would happen now, and how Artemis was planning on getting out of this one.

Like I said, shorter chapters.

So, yeah, this story will skip all the theatrics and get right down to the drama of the story, making this more interesting and fast paced.

In other words this is going to turn into The Team [aka: Wally] vs. Artemis.

So, maybe you will leave me a review? You don't have to find something bad in it, if you want, just write 'good' on the review, and that's all you have to do! No screen name, no nothing :)

Thanks!
