Bites
The Young Justice time was doing what they loved most. Watching fan videos of them on Youtube.
"Oh Arty one of you and Wally." The very excited matian squeaked and with another excited squeak she clicked on the video named 'bites'.
"Bites? What the hell?" Artemis said as she reached over for popcorn. Only to find none. With a glare at a certain Redhead she said, "No more videos until you restock."
Grumbling about her being too slow of an eater Wally got up walked to the kitchen and five minutes later came back with another six bowls of popcorn.
"Are we ready now?" the greenskinned girl question and when receiving an affirmative nod clicked play.
Kid Flash and Artemis were roped together and hanging upside down over a pit of lava. The camera zoomed in and words were made out as the archer and speedster awoke.
"What the- urg." Artemis said when she figured out what was happening.
"Great." Kid Flash groaned, "Batsy is gonna kill us. Stupid Covert mission."
"Isn't there supposed to be an evil villain that monotones us his whole plan right about now?" Explosions were heard with a familiar chuckle but they both sounded far away.
"Guess he is otherwise occupied. I have a knife in my pocket. If only I could reach it." Artemis said then started squirming around. Kid Flash let out a pained groan. Artemis instantly stopped and looked concernedly at Kid Flash, "Are you hurt?" she question as Kid Flash blushed a deep shade of red and looked sheepishly away from her eyes.
"There's no easy way to put this. You are a girl and I am a boy." He stated
"No shit Sherlock"
"A teenaged boy jacked up on hormones."
"And?"
"If you keep grinding your hips on mine there's gonna be a problem."
"Oh, oh. Ew Kid Flash keep it in your pants."
"It's natural."
"Oh bite me. I'm gonna have to keep wiggling if we have any hopes of getting loose." She started again then gasped in shock and a bit of pain.
"Kid Boner when I said bite me I didn't literally mean bite me"
"It's helping." The words were muffled due to his teeth still being clenched in Artemis' shoulder. Letting out a huff Artemis starting working at it again. Until
"Hey guys. I hope I'm not interrupting anything here. It really looks like I am. I'll just leave. The bioship is outside when your ready. And Batman is pissed. Seeya"
"Wait Robin. No! Come back. Come back and untie – ofph- us. Robin? Robin. Robin!"
The scene changed to a teenaged girl, with tanned skin, crazy curly hair pulled back from her face in a messy bun and a shirt that says "I'm not looking for trouble".
"Hey guys it's Lit again, this is my new Speed Arrow video on bites. The one you just saw was my favourite, Kid Boner gets me every time but without further ado Speed Arrow Bites." Lit gave a small wave and the scene change again.
"Kid Flash!" Artemis cry could be heard, "You stupid idiot."
That's what I get for saving your life?"
The camera focus and the area was a mess. There was pieces of metal everywhere. Miss Matian suddenly became visible and flew over to two figures crouching in the corner of the camera. The camera zoomed in to see Artemis hugging? No holding up Kid Flash as they turned the camera got a good look at his back. Or lack therefore.
"Oh my god KF, are you okay." Both Artemis and Wally stopped struggling and stare at Miss Matian.
"Team we heard an explosion is everyone all right." Aqua Lad, Super Boy and Robin showed up all running over to the three heroes.
"When the machine blow up it sent shards of metal everywhere. KF is hurt because he covered me. "
"It's nothing to worry about. It's not all that different than road rash."
"KF, road rash nearly killed you last time." Robin informed looking at his best friends back. The speedster hissed in pain as Robin hesitantly touched one shard poking out of Kid Flash's back.
"We need to get these out now!" Robin suddenly yelled. "Your super healing is already working and if we don't get them out now they will be sunken into you flesh. It could hit your heart."
"What do we do?" Miss Matian asked as Kid Flash, in too much pain to speak, groan and dug his head into Artemis' neck crock. Artemis found his hands and linked them in hers. "Okay, handsome we are gonna need you to arch your back. Lean on my and squeezed my hands when it hurts. I'll be here the whole time. I love you okay. You are gonna make it through this." Robin was motioning behind KF's back to Superboy for him to quickly pull out a shard after he had checked that it would come out cleanly. While Artemis was still talking Super boy grabbed a piece of metal and tugged it out. Kid Flash let out a scream of pain then bit Artemis shoulder. Hard. When Superboy pulled out the next one Robin pointed to the camera and Super boy threw it at it. The screen went to static before changing again.
"Artemis watch out."
"What? Oh orf!" The giant snake released Artemis' arm and let her slide to the ground as it slithered away.
"Artemis!" Kid Flash was there in an instant and caught her before she hit the ground. "Poisonous. Miss Matian called the Bioship I'm going to try and suck the poison." He sat down and laid her body on his before bringing her arm up to his mouth. Artemis wince and all you could hear was Kid Flash's "I'm sorry Beautiful. I should been faster. Beautiful stay with me. I'm so sorry." Artemis started screeching, "No, no. It hurts. It burns. Make it stop. Make it stop. Please Wal-"
A batarang was suddenly seen coming closer and closer to the screen before it hit and the screen went static.
Artemis was sitting in a... chair? It was a machine that had plenty of wires and beeping buttons but sure enough shaped like a chair. Artemis was looking worse for wear but awake and struggling against the ropes that bound her to the chair. Suddenly a blur of red appeared and block the camera view of Artemis. The camera was looking straight and must have been used for a ransom video. A fight could now be heard in the background. The blur of red and yellow turned out to be Kid Flash who didn't really look much better than Artemis. Kid Flash moved this way and that, examining the machine chair. All the while Artemis watched him a smirk on her face.
"You're stumped aren't you?" She said in a leering voice.
"What no thank you for saving your life. And no I'm not stumped. I reckon if we just undo the ropes you'll be out." He said quickly.
"No Kid Flash!" Artemis yelled and Kid Flash instantly dropped the ropes. "The ropes are motion sensors. This chair, "She kicked the leg of the chair, "is a bomb that will blow up in five minutes if you don't disarm it. Without undoing the ropes." Kid Flash nodded along, mentally finding out a way to disarm it.
"So the Joker was behind?" He asked to which Artemis nodded.
"Just like what Batman expected. There's a toolbox over there if you need any tools."
"Should I call Robin onto this?" A repetitive sound of gunshots sounded just then and Artemis looked at the roof in exasperation.
"Nah he sounds busy."
"Why aren't you freaking out? You are strapped to a chair that's gonna blow you up soon."
"Because they drugged me and I'm pretty sure if it wasn't for daddy's training, "she said daddy in a cruel, sarcastic voice, "I'd be well and truly out of it."
"Okay," Kid Flash drew out on the word, sounding very concern, " Well I can get you out of there if I just-"
"Please, " Artemis said, sounding exhausted, "just do it."
"Okay." Kid Flash said again, still concerned. He lent over quickly, gave her a kiss on the forehead, dragged the tool box over the chair, pull out a wrench and starting doing god knows what to the side of the chair. Artemis slumped over on the chair and Kid Flash looked over concernedly and decided to keep up the conversation.
"What did he do to you." Artemis looked over to him, her eyes unfocused. Obviously she was on the verge of passing out. It took her a few seconds but eventually she started talking.
"After the smoke bomb went off one of his henchman grabbed me. Put a rag over my face and I passed out. Next thing I know I'm awake here. The Joker comes up and apparently he wanted his bird - Robin obviously- not some 'stupid archer' . So he used his famous crowbar- cracked a couple of ribs and then drugged me. I don't know what type. I thought it was laughing gas but all it's done is made be exhausted." Kid Flash looked up in shock at the broken ribs part and started working with super speed his outline whizzed around the chair until finally the lights on in dimmed. The whirring noise stopped and Kid Flash stood in front of the chair, once again blocking the camera.
"Nice ass." Artemis said in present time.
"Shh!" Robin called out from the other side of the couch. "We are watching here."
Artemis sighed but returned her attention to the TV.
"Okay beautiful I'm gonna need you to bite this cloth." Kid Flash said. Artemis groaned and looked up and a ripped off piece of Robins cape.
"Dude not cool." Robin stated to which Artemis got her revenge by shushing him.
Artemis smirked at Kid Flash and leisurely bit the cape. Then Kid Flash picked her up, jarring her ribs and she bit down on the cloth hard, screwing her eyes shut.
"It's okay beautiful, we are going home now." Kid Flash said, then kicked the camera over.
