BB was taking a nap when the alarm went off.
She raised her torso and her head fell forward as she lifted her right hand and covered her face. "Ow. Not fair." She slid off the sofa and followed the commotion.
When she entered the room, her eyes widened.
Miss Martian, Bloody Water, the Bloody Red Queen, and Artemis were watching a screen that showed that the boys were out taking down the city, tearing it apart by it's roots. They were searching for something and were becoming more and more furious that they couldn't find it.
Still, it was most shocking that Red Arrow was in the fray.
BB ground her teeth together. She pointed to the Zeta Tubes. "Move out! We need to stop the damage those boys are causing!"
-Star City-
BB ran a hand through her hair before she sighed, crouching down. "HEY!"
Red Arrow stopped and slowly turned around. His eyes were unfocused and she smirked.
"Easy prey today."
'WAIT! Don't hurt him!'
'Who said anything about pain, Miss Martian?'
She jumped down, landing on the wire. She slid down it's length, letting gravity take her down. 'Just deal with Superboy. Remember the plan.'
'Right! Draw them to the water!' came several replies.
BB's smile became dark and she jumped just a bit, but still flew over Red Arrow's head. She suddenly brought her leg around and caught Red Arrow by the neck. She twisted and the force made him spin off the bridge. Her face suddenly became confused. "That was too easy."
She looked over the edge and saw him holding onto the bridge with just one hand.
"Yes, that was too easy." She turned and jumped for the next wire. Her hands extended and she looped around it, landing on it so she could stand on it. She watched Red Arrow.
He swung himself and cartwheeled onto the same wire as her. She was rocked, but he began to climb towards her. He had an intent in his eyes that she recognized. He reached out and she ducked, sliding down the wire and right between his knees. "Coward."
She spotted the Bloody Red Queen running towards the bridge. She had a small injury to her left arm. She seemed unable to hold herself from laughing.
She jumped onto the bridge and began to climb. She was twisting and curving and her stalker was struggling to keep pace. She finally landed beside BB on the bridge's rails for pedestrians. "What should we do?"
'Incoming!'
The duo looked to their right as Artemis zoomed by on the roof of a car.
KF was zooming faster than was necessary. That gave the two girls enough space and Bloody Red Queen grabbed her sisters wrist. She jumped onto KF's back, a long, maroon piece of elastic something stretched as she attached it to his back.
BB wound the rest around the nearest wire.
KF growled and went after BB.
She back-flipped into the water below. The splash was minimal, but she surfaced a bit far away. She waved to him and blew him a kiss.
Superboy splashed into the water next to her, creating a huge wave.
"Surfs up!" she yelled as Bloody Red Queen jumped after her sister.
KF wasn't about to let the two escape him. Robin and Red Arrow weren't going to let Artemis escape, as she'd just shot tear gas at the two of them. Artemis dove, head-first, into the water. The two boys dove after her.
Miss Martian swooped low, gliding over the water as she pulled them along. They had to get to open waters before Agua could help them.
"FASTER!"
Miss Martian was about to protest when she realized why.
Kid Flash was hot on their heels and he was determined.
BB suddenly created a propeller that began to tread water back at him, slowing him down. "Hurry! We've gotta go!" She kept it rotating until she felt the water give under her. "Drop!"
Miss Martian stopped and used the momentum to throw the other three into the open sea. She shot into the sky to get away from them as Superboy launched himself at her. 'Hurry!'
'I'm right here.'
Water parted and reached up to grab Superboy. The massive fists closed on him and threw him back to the surface.
Bloody Water rose out of the water, the moisture falling off her like she was made of wax. She lifted her hands to her sides and leaned forward. As she whipped her body back, she clasped her hands together in front of her.
The motion made a split in the water. It reached far enough as the boys fell into the crack. "NOW!"
Artemis shot an arrow into the crack as BB and Miss Martian created a sealed chamber for each boy. Superboy broke free, but was taken down by Bloody Red Queen's strange stare. Once they were captured, Miss Martian began to lift them out of the water.
"How can we tell?"
Bloody Water lifted the other girls out of the water, drying them as she went. Her eyes looked blind, but she still smiled at Artemis. "We'll tell when we get them back to shore. In the meantime, we need to focus and make sure they don't do anything stupid."
-The Cave-
Miss Martian slowly set the boys down in their new environment, glass boxes reinforced with electric shields beyond them and grounded by titanium weights that were drilled into the ground by Green Lantern.
"That's it."
BB put her hand, flat palm, towards the boxes. Little red needles came out of the boys, giving them movement again. She sighed and looked at Batman. "It's your call. You're boys, you're problem."
"Why do you want to help us now, of all times?"
BB glared at Green Lantern. "Just because I asked you to drill holes doesn't mean I have to explain myself to you."
Green Lantern stepped forward. "I'm a member of this League. I should be read into this."
"No, you don't. Neither does Superman or Wonder Woman, or even the Flash!" She grabbed his hand with his ring and he gasped. "You've got some nerve treating me like this! After how long you've known me!"
There was a silence so dense it almost seemed like they were drowning in it.
"John Stewart, have you forgotten how long you've known me and how much we've been through?"
He lowered his hand from her's. "I just want to know why."
BB turned to the boys. "There's something I owe someone for something it did for me. You know how I feel about paying debts, John. Just let me do this for it. It's not gotten it's chance to shine. I want it to sparkle before I leave it behind."
Green Lantern raised an eyebrow. "An 'it'? You owe a debt to an 'it', Candi?"
"Not just any it." She sighed and looked at her sisters. "I owe them a lot, too."
