So here is Speedy's chapter. I was thinking about doing MM and just having her and Martian Manhunter talk on there way to Mount Justice but that really wouldn't fit the story. Anyway, I guess this is the last chapter! A big thank you to everyone who reviewed or put this on your favorites or alert list!

"What!" the archer asked in shock, his mouth hanging wide open dropping the arrow he was holding in his hand. "You mean all this time The Hall of Justice has been...It's just...so what about?"
"It's a decoy to throw the public off," Green Arrow replied taking pleasure in seeing the shock on his apprentices face.
"S-so where's the real base at?" Speedy asked. Green Arrow just grinned.
"We call it the watchtower," he began "A space station and the real headquarters for the Justice League."
"How…how did you even fund that, much less build it?" Speedy asked wide eyed.
"We're a team of sixteen of the most powerful beings on the planet, is this really so hard to believe." Green Arrow asked with a smirk.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Speedy replied in a quieter voice. Green Arrow's smirk faltered a bit. The boy...ahem, the teen, as Roy insisted he be called, was clearly upset. It had never occurred to him that perhaps Roy might see this as a trust issue. He'd always had a hot temper. Always jumping to conclusions, always had to be so serious. It felt like just yesterday, the boy had happily slipped on the red cap and yellow gloves. In reality, that had been three years ago. The kid had grown up, he'd become a partner rather than a sidekick. Roy had become more independent since then. He no longer needed Green Arrows help in patrolling certain areas of the city. He was perfectly capable of taking on a group of crooks by himself. Heck, he'd even had Roy pull his hide out of the fire a few times. He cast another glance at his partner. Maybe, just maybe the kid deserved to know.
"I'm sorry Roy," Green Arrow sighed, "I wasn't supposed to reveal this to you. We wanted to see if you were really ready."
"Batman?" Speedy asked with a sigh guessing who was behind this secrecy.
"Batman," Green Arrow nodded as silence set in between the two.
"So what about tomorrow?" Speedy finally asked.
"No, you guys still get a real look inside of the Justice League. I promise," Green Arrow said holding up a hand.
"Are the others still going to pretend like this is a real tour?" Speedy replied skeptically.
"Look, I'm gonna try my best to get you into the league, I think you're more than ready." Green Arrow said with a smile. He thought about perhaps laying a hand on his shoulder or adding something more but decided against it, remembering how much Roy hated getting overly sentimental. There was another prolonged silence between the two. Finally, Speedy lifted his head up.
"I look forward to it then," he said with a small smile on his face. "Tomorrow really is the day."
Hope you enjoyed!
