Chapter 3
Whoo! I'm tired. It's 11:30 where I am, but whatever. Sleep is for the weak, and coffee was invented for a reason! Right, so it's a couple days later (I know, time skip but if I didn't there'd be a bunch of stupid filler chapters, and we don't want those). Oh and since this store has everything, it also has a mini-library. Cuz that would be awesome, right? Some questions get answered in this chappie, so don't worry! Wally is a bit of a snoop, Robin and him investigate, lots of fun. Warning: Supey does something you won't believe!
Disclaimer: I wished I owned Young Justice.
P.S. I'm wearing a cape right now, cuz I'm awesome like that. Oh yeah.
Diaries, secrets, wolves and more!
Wally turned the corner, and spying an open door, walked through it. Inside, there was a library. Wow, he thought.
(Wally) Guys, this place does have everything! There's a library here!
(Artemis) Nice Baywatch. Anything interesting?
Wally looked around. Many books spanned the shelves, but what caught his eye was a small book on a table in the center of a room. Actually, it was a stack of books, and at the bottom sat a small journal-type book. He pulled it out and started reading from a random page, relaying the contents to his bored teammates.
(Wally) "I wish when it happened, it wouldn't be so painful. It hurts, a lot. Nobody can help me either. Not even my closest friend. And yet, somehow I make it through. But it returns every full moon. The next full moon is coming up soon, and normally my "furry little secret" wouldn't be a problem. But the apocalypse happened and everything's gone nuts. Not only that, but the team is with us now. I don't want to scare them… especially not…" Wally trailed off.
(Robin) Wally? You ok man?
(Wally) I... uh….
(Artemis) Baywatch?
(Wally) um… yeah, I'm ok. It just…said my name. The entry in this book, it said "especially not Wally."
(Robin) Huh. That's weird. What book is it?
(Wally) I don't know, I'll check…. He looked at the cover at the book, and did a double take. Oh shoot…. It's Jaci's diary. Oh man, she's gonna kill me if she finds out!
(Robin) Oh please Walls, she's not gonna kill you.
At that moment, Jaci walked into the library, making Wally jump and drop the journal.
"Uh Jaci! Hi! W-what's up?" He asked nervously, nudging the diary under the table. Jaci looked at him.
"I was looking for something of mine, I seem to have misplaced it…. I thought it might be in here, but it could be in the kitchen." Wally swallowed.
"Uh… nothing in here but books! Maybe your d- I mean whatever you're looking for is in the kitchen! Um, I need to go ask Robin something, bye!" With that, Wally raced out of the room, leading a poof of dust. Jaci blinked. Ok, that was weird…he started to say something, oh no, please don't tell me he found my diary! She paled and raced to the table, searching for the small book. She saw it under the table and hurried flipped through it, checking for signs of tampering. She flipped to the last entry, and a small, red hair fell out.
"Oh nononononononononononononononono!" She quickly ran towards the exit, intending to run off, but was stopped when she saw her friend in the door.
"Hope, what are you-"
"Stopping you from leaving." Hope had felt her friend's panic skyrocket and knew she had to act fast.
Jaci frowned. "Hope, he read my diary, he knows! I didn't want him to know!"
Hope reached out to her friend. "Jaci, it's ok. You'll be fine. Maybe you should go talk to him."
"I'll talk to him when Superboy rides a horse into the sunset grinning."
Before Hope could respond to that, a clopping sound from the window drew both girl's attention. It was Superboy. Grinning and riding a horse. And it was sunset.
"O vos got ad iocari."* Jaci muttered, not believing the sight. She turned to face Hope. "How did you pull that off?"
Hope smiled at her friend. "I had a little help. Looks like you've got some talking to do."
Yeah, so that's chapter 3. I hope you like it. Anybody have a guess as to what Jaci's "furry little problem" is? Virtual cookies to the people who get the reference. Hope you liked it, I'll try to update again soon, but as for right now, I'm going to bed. Peace out!
