(A/N: Hey guys. Long time no see ^-^. Yes, I know I do not update in ideal intervals but I am a busy person and don't have time to write often. When I do write, though, I get one episode done per sitting so you can be sure that I literally just wrote this today. I wasn't holding on to it and waiting.

Your reviews really do keep me going. If it weren't for the fact that it is super common for me to get emails of people STILL reviewing this and/or "I've Been Watching You Dad" I probably would never continue this story so thank you for that guys!

DISCLAIMER – I own nothing that resembles Young Justice or any other show or movie I may reference in any of my chapters!

And now- here's your story)

*Homefront*

(Gotham City)

*alarm goes off*

Artemis: *reaches a hand out to turn it off, but finds her alarm isn't there* *bolts upright and looks around, finally sees her alarm duck taped to the ceiling* *scowls* Wally! Robin!

KF and Robin: *snicker and high five from the sidelines*

Director 2: Someone please get her alarm clock down *ducks as an arrow wizzes over his head towards the boys* BEFORE she kills somebody.

Artemis: *sprints past after KF and Robin* That's right, you BETTER run!

….

Dick: *standing in front of Gotham Academy* Ah… my old stomping grounds.

Wally: *from the sidelines* Old? You're still in school dude.

Dick: *grumbles* Don't remind me. Can't a guy dream?

….

Artemis: Thanks, I'm Artemis, but… you knew that.

Dick: *sprints up and is about to take out his phone when he trips and crashes into Artemis* Hehe… We'll… laugh about this later?

Director 2: Cut! Someone clean Artemis's outfit and then we'll roll again!

Artemis: *shoves Dick to the side* *stands up and brushes off her uniform* For an acrobat, you're rather clumsy.

Dick: *whines* It was an accident.

….

(Mount Justice)

Red Tornado: So you haven't told the team about this... mole?

Kaldur: I can't be sure one exists. And if it does…

Red Tornado: It does exist. You cannot deny something you can clearly see.

Kaldur: *looks down at his arm and pokes a spot* Yeah... It's kind of gross too. Do moles normally look like that?

Director 2: And here I thought the scene was running smoothly. Seriously guys? Roll again!

….

(Gotham City)

Artemis: *about to go into teleporter*

Robin: *steps out* *very fake look of shock on his face* Artemis? How random that you're in Gotham City! It's almost like you live here and not Star City, where you're UNCLE Green Arrow lives, but that's crazy right? It's not like there is some apartment nearby that you're staying in with your mom or that you go to my- I mean, Gotham Academy or anything. Weiiirddd coincidence.

Director 2: *face palms*

….

(Mount Justice)

Artemis: *steps into cave*

Robin: Look out!

Artemis: *gets hit in the head with a ping pong ball* Ow?

Conner: Sorry, my bad!

*there is a giant ping pong table set up. Megan and Conner are on one side and Kaldur and Wally are on the other*

Artemis: Where did you guys get such a big ping pong table?

Director 2: *arms folded* That's what I would like to know. Come on guys, we have to set up for the explosion scene.

Wally: *waves a hand at him* Yeah, yeah, once we finish our match.

Director 2: No, now. Batman!

Batman: *suddenly appears beside Wally*

Wally: *jumps* *scared* Ah! Ok ok we're going.

Director 2: That's what I thought.

….

*Artemis and Robin sprint into the exercise room*

Robin: Robin to team. Aqualad, can you hear me?

Aqualad: *takes off his headphones* *is jogging on the treadmill* I can hear you loud and clear.

Robin: *stops and grins* Oh, hey! I was looking for you!

Director 2: Aqualad, this isn't your scene.

Aqualad: *steps off the treadmill and wipes off his face with a towel* Sorry, I had to get in my daily hour of exercise.

Director 2: *shakes head* Just go.

Aqualad: *shrugs and waves to Artemis and Robin* Good luck trying to contact us.

Robin: *waves back* Thanks! See ya later! *to Artemis* Isn't our leader so thoughtful?

Artemis: *chuckles*

Director 2: *rolls his eyes* Roll again!

….

Artemis: Air vent!

Robin: Okay, let's go. *stops by the door and hooks up to the screen there*

Artemis: What are you doing?

Robin: *turns to look at her* Watching a funny video. KF sent me a link this morning and I haven't gotten to watch it yet. *turns back to the screen and laughs* Ahhh.. what a crazy donkey.

….

Robin: *humming "Bad to the Bone"* Crawlin through the air vents.

Artemis: Duh nah nuh nah nuh.

Robin: Tryin not to make a sound.

Artemis: Duh nah nuh nah nuh.

Robin: There's evil people after us.

Artemis: Duh nah nuh nah nuh

Robin: We don't want them around.

Director 2: This isn't a rock session, guys. Come on, you're supposed to be serious in this scene!

Robin: Don't be hatin on the classics! Besides, we sound fabulous.

Director 2: Oh, is that the word kids use now-a-days to describe what dying cats sound like?

Robin: *appalled* Hey! It's not nice to talk about Artemis that way.

Artemis: HEY!

….

*Artemis and Robin drop out of the air vent and into a storage closet*

Robin: Aw man, we took a wrong turn.

Artemis: I told you we should've asked for directions.

Robin: No, we're just taking a scenic route. Just, turn around and go back a few turns.

Wally: You guys sound like an old married couple. *gets hit in the head with an arrow and a batarang* Ow!

Artemis and Robin: We do NOT!

Director 2: Come on Robin, you were supposed to end up in the engine room, thing. I thought you had skills.

Robin: I do have skills, *folds his arms across his chest* I just… chose not to implement them at this time.

Wally: Suuurreee.

Robin: Oh hush! I bet you don't even know what implement means.

Wally: Do too!

Director 2: Boys! Hush. Let's just go again, okay? Places people!

….

Robin: Downloading security footage…

*Megan and Conner kissing is pulled up on his screen*

Robin: Ewewewewewew too far back!

Artemis: *chuckles* Dork.

Robin: *sticks out his tongue at her before fast-fowarding*

….

Robin: That's it, all four are dead.

Artemis: *looks at him, in shock*

Robin: *pause* What? Oh- OH! You thought I meant... *slides a finger across his throat* *shakes his head* No no, the cameras, not… them. Yeah…

Director 2: Did you just… forget your line, or…? Because you know how I feel about improv.

Robin: *rubs the back of his neck sheepishly* My bad.

Director 2: Roll again!

….

Artemis: It's Red Tornado!

Red Tornado: *from the sidelines* I assure you it is not me.

Director 2: *looks at him* *raises an eyebrow* Aren't you supposed to be at the Watch Tower?

Artemis: *shakes her head and gets back into place for a retake*

….

Robin: *pulls on a book*

*nothing happens*

Robin: Ah come on… which one is it?

Artemis: Flame throwing robots, toppling book cases, does this not mean anything to you?

Robin: I'm trying! I'm trying! *after a second huffs out a sigh and throws his hands in the air* Okay, somebody took the book.

KF: *cackles from the sidelines, holding the book in his hand*

Director 2: Wally. Give the book back.

*book cases are stopped and reset*

KF: You guys are no fun. They were supposed to get crushed!

Batman: *appears behind him*

KF: *jumps and gulps nervously* I m-mean… I th-thought it'd be funny. PleaseDon'tHurtMe. *hands him the book back while also cringing away from him*

Batman: *shakes his head silently before going over and putting the book back in its right place*

Director 2: Go again!

….

Red Torpedo: Attention Robin. Attention Artemis. You have exactly ten minutes to surrender or the lives of your friends will be extinguished. *dramatic music starts blaring over the speakers*

Director 2: Robin!

Robin: *grins sheepishly* I thought some dramatic overture would be appropriate that this point.

Director 2: *just shakes his head* Alright, why doesn't every just take five?

….

(Dressing Room)

KF: *as he eats some cake* M'n, th'se flames.. *swallows* Sure do look real.

Megan: *nods* Indeed they do.

Robin: Wait, you mean they're NOT real? *pauses in drinking his apple juice*

Conner: *shakes his head* No, of course not. You thought they were?

Robin: The ones chasing us were! I felt the heat!

Megan: *shrugs* Well my cage isn't real. Don't want to actually hurt Aqualad and I.

Kaldur: Indeed, if they were real, it would be a painful process.

Robin: Well snap. Don't spoil it for the fans. It's no fun when they know it's faking.

KF: But, we're actors. This is a TV show. How could they not know already?

Robin: *shrugs* Being the hardcore fans they are… *takes a long sip* I'm sure they're just in denial.

Artemis: *steps into the room* We have to get back on set guys.

KF: Alright, alright, we're coming.

….

(Mount Justice)

Red Torpedo: *as he raises the water level* Nine minutes and forty-five seconds..

Robin: *calls out through the set* Come on KF just vibrate through! Oh, wait.

KF: *as he still struggles* Not. Funny!

Robin: *cackle echoes through the room*

….

Robin: We can access the hanger from here.

*water comes rushing after them*

Robin: Or not.

Artemis: Will you please stop saying that!

Robin: *grins* Or not. Or not. Or not. OrNotOrNotOrNot.

Artemis: *puts her hands over her ears* Gah. Come on. *they're swept into the water*

….

Kaldur: She is unconscious. I fear she- we, cannot survive much longer.

Robin: Man, you're sweating hard man. Are you sure those flames aren't real?

Megan: *sits up* Just keep going! I don't even like being around FAKE flames for this long.

Director 2: Cut! Someone splash Aqualad again. Then we'll do a retake. Robin! No commentary.

Robin: *grumbles, pouting* Someone's not feeling the aster.

….

Artemis: They already took out our FOUR, super-powered friends!

Robin: But they won't take out us! *grips her shoulders* We can do this! Don't lose hope, because the second you do, that's when they win. We can do this. We are JUST as good as our friends. We will save them! *dramatic pause* Or die trying.

Director 2: Robin, this isn't Days of Our Lives, this is a kid's show.

Robin: What does that have to do with giving epic inspiration speeches? Come on, that was gold!

Director 2: You're right it was- No. Roll again!

Robin: *monotone, to the director* You sound distraught.

Director 2: Now the boy says his line.

….

Artemis: HOW can you be so calm?

Robin: …

Artemis: Robin?

*cardboard cut-out of Robin falls over*

Artemis: Seriously? Great, now I'm REALLY doomed.

Director 2: *through megaphone* As much as I appreciate you staying in character, we have to do that again. WHERE'S ROBIN?

*cackling echoes throughout the set*

Wally: *yells* He ran off because Batman needed something in Gotham. There was a break-in so they might be a bit.

Director 2: *grumbles* Heroes… *into megaphone again* Alright everyone, take five!

*everyone begins to leave*

Superboy: Hey! What about us?

KF: Yeah! Don't just leave us here! Come on guys!

….

Artemis: Well you better have an EMP in your quiver because I am fresh out in my utility belt- Wait, I switched those two.

Robin: *laughs* Yes you did.

Director 2: Roll again!

….

KF: … from x-rays to EMPs.

Artemis: My GOD you're such a nerd.

KF: It's in the script!

Robin: *laughs* We all know you helped write this part KF.

KF: Dude. Back me up here! Not cool.

….

Conner: And you can't drown a Kryptonian dumb bots, we don't breathe air!

KF: Bwahaha- ha *coughs* Agh. Water in my mouth.

Director 2: Cut. Roll again!

….

Conner: Hey! KF, why did the robot go to robot school?

KF: Why?

Conner: Because his skills were getting a litte rusty!

KF: Oh! I got one! How many robots does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Conner: Beats me!

KF: Three! One to hold the bulb, and two to turn the ladder!

*both boys laugh when suddenly they are shot at with fire*

Director 2: Different distractions boys! Unless you want to get fried. Roll again!

….

Robin: I need something to complete the circuit.

Artemis: Why are you talking to yourself about it when you could just shove a batarang in there?

Robin: Good idea! *gets one out*

Director 2: No, Robin, that's not in the script. I mean, it's smart but we're trying to be drastic here and build suspense.

Robin: *whines* It's not realistic though. Come on. I've been doing this since I was 9-

The Team: *together* We know.

Robin: Oh. Right.

Director 2: *sighs* Roll again!

Robin: *smirks* Or not.

Artemis: *shoots Robin with her last arrow* I told you not to say that again!

Robin: *cackles and cartwheels away*

Artemis: *throws her hands into the air* How does he even do that?

….

Robin: *is being pulled down in a stream of water by Red Torpedo* *suddenly perks up and starts swimming in the water cheekily*

Director 2: Robin! That doesn't look very unconscious to me!

Robin: *pushes his head out of the stream and blows raspberries at the director* *yelps and ducks back in when a clipboard is thrown at him*

Director 2: *smirks* Roll again!

….

Artemis: *falls into the souvenir room* Who am I kidding… *notices something* What the… *gets up and walks over to the shelves* *picks up a can*

*can suddenly explodes and confetti goes everywhere*

Artemis: Wally!

*KF laughing can be heard faintly in the background*

Artemis: *smirks* *calls out* Still not as cool as Robin's cackle!

KF: *laughing stops* Hey!

Robin: *cackles*

….

Artemis: But I found a new family, and in this family it's one for all and –

Red Torpedo: One minute.

KF: Don't worry! Just take your time with your back-story! We're just facing impending doom here!

….

Conner: *frantically* Kaldur! How's M'gann?

Robin: *coughs* Don't mind the rest of us. We're all peachy keen, thanks for asking.

Artemis: *shaking her head* How you didn't figure it out sooner, Wally, I just don't know.

KF: *whines* It's in the script!

Robin: That's what they all say.

KF: *grumbles under his breath* Can we just roll again?

Director 2: I don't know, can we?

KF: *scowls* MAY we?

Director 2: Yes we may. Roll again!

….

KF: Will you quit playing with that thing and cut us free already?

Artemis: Oh, sure thing. *whacks him upside the head with the large gun*

KF: OUCH! Why did you do that?

Artemis: *shrugs, innocently* It wasn't working. I thought hitting it against a hard surface would help. Oh! But I just remembered, the EMP makes no machines work. Oops. My bad.

KF: You sooo did that on purpose.

….

Red Tornado: I was unaware that I had relatives.

KF: Wow. Red Tornado not knowing something? Now THAT is a real shocker.

Red Tornado: *looks to him* Considering an EMP just went through, it would be impossible for anything to have shocked you at this moment.

KF: *sighs* It was a joke.

Director 2: Not a very good one! Now roll again! We are almost done people, come on!

….

Superman: What happened?

Artemis: Really? You haven't asked someone else by now? Like, I don't know, you're SON?

Superman: He's not my –

Everyone: Yes he is!

Superman: *curls in on himself a bit and looks away* Oh, I better go fix that thing… in China. *flies away*

Robin: Coward! *shakes a fist at him as Superman flies away*

Director 2: *pinches the bridge of his nose* Guys, we all hate that he won't accept Conner as his son, but try not to stop a scene just because of it.

KF: We wouldn't have to stop the scene if SUPERMAN WOULD SUCK IT UP AND TALK TO CONNER. I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME YOU WUSS!

Director 2: *megaphone* Superman! Come back! We need to Roll Again!

….

Superman: *very tense* So… what happened?

Everyone: *glaring at Superman*

Director 2: *whines* Guys come on, this is our 12th take. Just ACT for ONE MOMENT like you like him so we can be done! Okay? Roll again!

….

(Actor's Lounge)

Robin: *walks in and plops down on the couch*FINALLY we're done.

Wally: *walks in, cowl down* Yeah. I'm hungry- hey what's this?

Robin: *perks up* What's what?

Wally: It's a box for you.

Robin: *gets up and walks over, opening it* Oh! It's a cake!

Wally: WHAT? *comes up close next to him, mouth watering* *reaches for the box*

Robin: *slaps his hand away* Hey! No touchy! *looks back at the cake* Heh. It says Buyakasha!

Wally: What does that mean?

Robin: *shrugs* I don't know but it's funny! Buyakasha! *laughs* *takes the cake and begins to walk away*

Wally: *follows him quickly* Come on man, you can't eat that all on your own! Help a starving brother out here!

Robin: Get your own cake! *walks away*

Wally: *whines* Robin! *chases him down* *you can hear him calling down the hall* Pleeeaaseeee! I just want one bite!

Robin: *you can hear him down the hall as well* No! One bite IS a whole cake for you! Back off!

Wally: But!

Robin: Don't make me call Batman on you!

Wally: Awww man!

(A/N: So there it was! I hope you guys all enjoyed it! It's been almost a year since I've updated My bad. Just been busy. I won't stop, I promise, but I can't guarantee when I'll update again! I hope you guys still want to read it despite my absence.
