Im back! Thanks for reviewing! This chapter is going to start off right were I left it.
Artemis frowned. "So why did you bring me up here?" . "To ask you whats wrong." he replied as he swung onto another bar. Her eyes widened. "Ask me whats wrong? Im pretty sure you're the one that isn't very happy right now!". He winced. Artemis felt a little guilty. After all, he was just trying to help her... But she doesn't like being babied. Especially by a kid who was at least two years younger than her."Besides, I can assure you I'm perfectly fine.", Dick said unhappily. Artemis rolled her eyes."You look like you haven't slept in days." she said bitterly. Dick flipped upside down. hanging by his knees, and stayed there for about 10 seconds before responding. "Maybe I haven't.". His voice was barely a whisper. Artemis frowned. "Will you tell me why?". In answer, Dick flipped right side up and swung from bar to bar, eventually landing on the cylinder artemis was standing on. "I'd sit down. This is going to be a long story.". She nodded, and they both sat back-to-back. He took in a deep breath. "When I was little I was part of the circus." Artemis knew he had an interesting backstory, but this was new. He continued. "I was an only child, and lived on the train with the rest of the acts.". Artemis frowned. "What were you guys?". He gave her a sad smile. "Guess.". 'Acrobats. Of course.'. She nodded. "Continue.". Dick kept his eyes on his feet as he talked."My parents... were very nice people...". Artemis frowned. Were?. She tried figure out how to phrase her question without bringing up bad memories. "Are they...y'know...". He sighed and started to climb down the stairs. "No. They're gone.". Artemis could tell his eyes were glazed over. "Oh, Dick..."
I'm practically crying right now. This is incredibly short and depressing.
