Much apologies for not updating on this story. I am not about to give up on it when I am so close to the end. Most likely two more chapters after this. After the heavy Endgame emotions, I was finally able to write something fun, also thanks to all you who have found your humorous sides again in the stories that I read.

Without further ado, here is the next chapter of Multiplicity. Enjoy! And I separated the extra multiples by different names for better distinction. I tried to start in their splitting of personalities in the previous chapter, as shown at the watchtower with Superman. :)

Disclaimer: Young Justice is not mine.


The team didn't remember having this many League members in the cave at once nor have they ever seen Martian Manhunter glare. It was entirely Green Arrow's idea to mess with J'onn's massive hidden stash of Oreos. Even Barry knew not to touch the Martian's favorite food.

Hal pointedly stared angrily at who he knew was the brain of the whole operation at his house. "Ollie, I know you wanted a way to get back after that little doorstop surprise from a few weeks ago, but you DO NOT TOUCH MY RING!"

Before Ollie could open his mouth for a comeback, Batman silenced them. "Enough. Your personal prank wars will not involve any member of the team." All was completely silent from both groups of heroes. A few continued to glare at the offending perpetrators that pulled the stunts against them, but kept their mouths shut. Batman continued, "We will further discuss this later. For now, all sets of the multiples will remain in the cave until we can figure out how to fix this. That means no going out anywhere and no going to school."

KF was ready to cheer out loud in triumph before containing himself when Batman carefully eyed him. "You will be expected to keep up on missed studies in the meantime. Your parents will be contacted on the matter." The Dark Knight added. A few of the multiples slumped their shoulders. Batman turned to the League. "Green Arrow and Flash will not be allowed around the team for a while and will be currently placed on full time watchtower duty." Hal and Shayera quietly snickered as the two said mentors frowned. "Black Canary and Red Tornado will remain in the cave with the team."

The rest of the League began to disperse and head to their destinations, but not before some promises to get back at the two mentors later and that they had their eye on the sidekicks as well. Superman particularly glared at the multiples before going through the Zeta Beam.

"So we're basically stuck here under house arrest." Arty replied with her arms folded.

Rob shrugged. "It could be worse."

Batman turned to leave also when Robin appeared at his side. "Are you sure that we can't leave to throw off some of our enemies? You heard how well that worked with Superman and even Wonder Woman. Imagine what it would be like tricking Joker with multiple Robins."

Batman outright replied, "No," He paused for a moment, giving a slight smile that only the boy wonders could recognize. "I am not to catch any of you pulling off stunts like that again, especially taking things from Superman." For a second, the Dark Knight's smile widened before his expression returned to normal and he left.


Zatanna, M'gann, and Connor were told to head off to school. Connor himself couldn't wait for a chance to get away from the cave. Kaldur offered to keep up on some magic research as he stayed to keep an eye on the multiples with Dinah and Tornado. For the most part, the day went by very slowly as they tried to keep themselves occupied.

KF found himself back at video games, convincing Red Tornado to order a new game to the system since he was bored of everything else. The wind manipulation android complied to keep the hyper speedster busy. KF waved the second controller in his hand as Dick walked by.

"Hey, want to play again?"

Dick shook his head, adjusting his shades as if not quite comfortable with them. "Nah, I'll just beat you again." KF frowned and stuck out his tongue. "I'd rather get some extra work in since we missed school today." KF shook his head in disbelief and started his game.

Rob sat in front of his computer, typing away as he concentrated on his current task. He hadn't moved much from his spot a majority of the morning. After tapping a few more keys, he stopped and stared at the screen, his eyes widening behind his shades.

"Yes!" He exclaimed quickly, fists in the air showing victory, "After hours of trying, I finally managed to hack into the…" Rob trailed off as he noticed Red Tornado looking right at him. Rob forced a cringing smile. "You didn't hear that." The stare down with the android lasted for another moment until Tornado walked away. Rob watched after him for a while before turning back and grinning maniatically at his computer, digging through the newly acquired information.

Wally was in the kitchen, eating a mixture of various foods from what he could find in the refrigerator and pantry. Already, M'gann had gone out twice for more groceries since the speedster had been multiplied a few days ago.

With her hair down except for a few strands held back in a clip, Artemis or Mis, daintily walked into the kitchen for a cup of milk. Curious, Wally watched as Mis took a seat a few stools away from him. She put her cup down in front of her and slowly pulled out a box from her bag. Wally's mouth instantly began to water as he recognized the picture on the box. Thin mint cookies. The Girl Scouts brand. Completely forgetting about the food in front of him, Wally was in an instant sitting right next to Mis before she could even open the box.

"Hey beautiful," He smoothly replied, "Where'd you get those?"

"I bought then. Duh. Luckily I didn't have them with my stash you found the other night." She tore open the plastic wrapping around a stack. Before pulling a cookie out, Mis glanced up at Wally who had to peel his eyes away from the cookies to face her. "Is there something you wanted?" She asked sweetly with a smile on her face. She kept her eyes on him as she took a bite of the cookie.

Wally had to use all of his focus to keep his eyes on hers. She smiled wider as she saw his strain. His eyes brightened as she gave in, handing him a cookie. He took a bite, but immediately looked back at her.

"The cookies may be sweet, but not as sweet as you."

Wallace shook his head at Wally's attempted flirting with Mis. He tried to go back to working on research for an extra science project when he took notice of Artemis sitting alone in the corner of the room. Her arms were wrapped around her legs as she had a forlorn look, staring in the distance at nothing. Sighing, Wallace closed the book and walked over.

"Is there something troubling you?"

Artemis continued to play with a strand of her ponytail, wrapping the end of her hair loosely around her finger as she kept her gaze forward.

"Studies have shown that…" Wallace stopped himself as Artemis hugged herself more and laid her head the opposite direction against her knees. He softly said, "If you want, it helps to get out your feelings when you talk to someone. I can be a good listener."

Artemis turned back and studied Wallace for a moment before sitting up. She began, vaguely explaining about how everything had been tough on her mom and that she wasn't in the best of relationship with her dad along with her sister leaving a few years ago. Wallace sat and smiled, nodding and adding a few simple words of encouragement every so often.

"You're strong enough to pull through anything. And you will always have people who will help you and care about you here." Wallace placed a hand on Artemis' and she smiled in thanks.

Kaldur walked into the kitchen for a glass of water. The Atlantian paused, slightly taken back on the fact that Mis was giggling. At Wally. Kaldur have never once heard the archer giggle. Much less actually blush at what the junior speedster said. He raised his eyebrow and finished drinking his water, paying no mind to their playful conversation. As Kaldur placed the now empty cup carefully in the sink, he realized the couple at sitting at the kitchen counter was quiet. The leader would get a momentary shock at what he saw when he turned around. 'Mis and Wally's lips were touching. Regaining his composure, Kaldur slipped out of the kitchen.

Robin, still in his uniform, appeared out of nowhere and started taking multiple pictures of the kissing pair, smirking as he did so. Dinah walked by and noticed the couple. She smiled and continued on, saying to herself, "Two out of three." She had seen Wallace and Artemis sitting comfortably with each other as they talked.

Robin cackled, still unnoticed by the two he finished taking pictures of. The devious boy wonder took off, grabbing up the computer Rob currently had as he went on his way to upload the pictures. The offended hacker raised his fist in the air. "Hey! I was on the verge of cracking something huge!"

Robin replied with another laugh as he glanced behind him while still running, "What I have is much more important."

Arty stopped walking as two boy wonders ran past her into the hallway, the second yelling at the first to give the computer back. The tough girl rolled her eyes and mumbled, "Dorks," Arty was about to head toward the kitchen when an annoying voice called for her.

"Hey Arty! Want to try out the new game with me? I'll go easy on you." Arty closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose before turning to face the grinning KF.

"Not interested." She said through her teeth. "Why don't you go bother someone else like one your other clones or a Robin?"

"None of them want to play." KF complained.

"That's a surprise," She sarcastically replied to herself. "Look, if you really want something else to do, you can join me at the gym. I'll be heading there soon for some archery practice."

"As long as I'm not the target." KF mumbled, turning the game off.

Arty smirked. "We'll see,"

KF froze on the couch for a moment, staring straight ahead, slightly petrified before getting up slowly to follow her. He wasn't paying attention to where he was going and almost ran into Arty as she suddenly stopped. KF thought it best not to say a word to her as she was seething in anger. He backed away carefully to give Arty space before following the source of her glaring. KF's mouth dropped to see one of his multiples in the kitchen holding hands with an Artemis.

Robin appeared in front of Arty and KF, snapping a few pictures of their shocked expressions and taking off just as fast before either one could react. When Wally and Mis moved closer for another kiss, Arty and KF simultaneously freaked out.

Arty acted first, rushing over to the pair. "I don't think so!"

"You—you're not supposed to do that." KF stuttered, moving swiftly over to his surprised multiple who had not let go of Mis' hand.

Dinah had to step in to avoid the oncoming arguments between the two pairs, mainly from the ones who began it, complaining that there was no way they could be together. Things had definitely turned interesting when Zatanna, Connor, and M'gann returned from school.


I kind of like how this chapter turned out overall. I should since I went back to edit it a few times before posting it. I did as a handful had requested. The other multiples began to split into different personalities. Arty is tough, Artemis is a bit timid, and Mis is sweet. Robin is sneaky, Rob is the hacker, and Dick is Dick. The major mathlete and little annoyance as he most likely is at school. Hopefully that makes sense.

Oh, if anyone is interested and hasn't read it yet, I started up on a big project of a season 3 story called Darkness Rises. It is still very much in the process as I gather ideas. I hope to have the next chapter for that up by the end of this week. This story came first as feelings of neglect took over. Review please and check out Darkness Rises! Thanks! :D
