Superboy's P.O.V
This waiting is killing my nerves right now. Myself, Angel and the Team were in the living room of the Cave waiting for the verdict of what happen yesterday. Sorry, let's get to the begin of this painfully waiting. After what happen with the battle against Toyman we told Red that he must have told Batman. Or worse, a reporter must have seen "everything" and put it in the news or the paper causing the whole Justice League and the Man of Steel to find out that she knock off a super villain's 'head'.
~Flashback Moment~
Angel was running around wanting or demanding in her little cute ways for breakfast. Megan was cooking breakfast while I and my little Angel that I finally caught was sitting on the barstool.
"You know I can help if you want, Megan," I stated still trying to calm a hungry Super down than gotten up to Megan.
"No, it's okay, Superboy," Megan said trying to stop me. "Your hands can be still hurting you."
God damn it! Just because I had little of that green stone of death in my hand's everyone thinks you are a cripple and can't do anything now. I disobeyed her than when to her side and helped out. Megan looked surprised to see that I can make a pancake so perfect.
I smiled, "You look surprised, Megan?"
"Yeah, I never thought you can cook, Superboy?"
"What? A muscle head like me can't cook?" She started looking nervous for a second when I flashed a smile. "It's okay I was just joking, Megan."
"Yeah," she blushed then look away. "Sorry about that, Superboy."
"You guys can start calling me Connor now." I looked away to hid the blush that was on my face too. "I wanna get used to having a name."
"Ok... Connor."
Whoosh! "Good because having two Supey in the same room can get furious." We turn around to see Wally sitting right next to Angel.
"Wall-E!" Angel hugged then let go with a smile. "You came!"
"Good morning Wally, would you like some pancake?" Megan asked placing the plate of pancake on the table.
But before he can grab the plate, Angel slapped his hand, pouted and grabbed the plate for herself. "No! Pancake Angel, not Wall-E, Meggie!"
He grabbed his hand and smiled, "I guess she getting strong like you."
Really? Since yesterday, I was surprised to see the freak's head rounding and my sweet little Angel standing over him. Should you be proud of her saving two lives? Or be all out disciplining her like an adult? I am a 16 weeks old teenager caring for my baby sister the best as I can. But at the end of the day, she saved Robin and that little girl from the Toyman.
Angel pick up a pancake and raise it up to my knees, "Supes want a pancake?"
"Sure," I took the meal than turn my glance to Wally. "Wally, why are you here so early anyway?"
His whole body language change from happy to worry now. "Robin and Kaldur will explain why, Superboy."
He called me by my superhero name. He always calls me Supes never Superboy since the day I remember being free. Okay, now I'm worry and have to wait for Robin and Aqualad.
Recognized: Robin; B01, Aqualad; B02.
Speak of the Devils. I walked out of the kitchen with Megan and Wally behind me to see Robin and Aqualad.
"What is going now?"
"The Justice League are having an emergency meeting," Aqualad replied.
"And it about your sister," Robin added too.
My Angel? "Wait, why would they have a meeting about my sister?"
"Well, the League or should I said Superman is taking the matter pretty serious," we turned around to see Artemis standing with her arms cross. Robin and Kaldur shot a glare at her and she didn't pay any mind to them. Artemis just told me the truth of this debate instead of Kaldur or Robin because of... Superman!
"For punching, a killer robot head off!" That bastard! He's the cause for all of my worrying and causing my friends to not tell me the truth.
Kaldur sighed, "Now all Justice League members will be having the meeting."
I turn away to see my sister, my only family, my Angel eating pancakes and laughing as if there no care in the world. "So what now?"
"We will have to wait."
~Present~
Now we are in the living room waiting for an emergency League's meeting order by Superman to be over. Like I said I'm nervous, beyond piss and... afraid now. Afraid of what will happen to my sister, my Angel from the League's verdict. I mean I got Batman, Wonder Woman, Red Tornado, Martian Manhunter, The Flash, Black Carney, Green Arrow and Captain Marvel. But there still Captain Atom, the Green Lanterns, the Hawks, Aquaman, Zatara and the bastard Superman. This is an eight on eight League members in the argument for my sister faith that must have all sixteen members to agree on.
'How long are we going to wait for this debate?' Wally asked in our telepathy link. We didn't want to scare Angel with the bad news or sounding worried.
'I thought if it long that's something good, right?' Megan asked.
'Yeah, if you are typing to run away.' Artemis joked typing to lighten up the mood here.
'Maybe we should take a look for ourselves while Little Super sleeping,' Robin supposed. I guess the waiting is killing him too.
'No,' we looked Kaldur to see his eyes close and meditating. 'I'm sorry, but if we intervened with the debate that would give Superman another reason to separate you both.'
I grunted and just look at my everything sleeping on my lap. I can't lose her to Superman she's my only family. I wonder how the debate is going right now. But I wonder... was it my fault that Angel became this violent? She started watching our training/sparring session when she can't take her nap and try to copy us. Maybe it was all my fault that this happened.
'Guys, was it all my fault?' I asked point blank know that they would be honest with me no matter all looked at me with wide eyes to my question. But I glanced at them needing to know the truth from them.
Kaldur sighed, 'Superboy, I believe it how you ex her to violence like training. You are showing her moves that she will remember.'
'Kaldur's right about you teaching her moves without explaining to her,' Robin added too. 'But if wasn't for you teaching her, I or that little girl would have been dead by Toyman. I'd never have seen my family again. So thank you.'
Megan, Wally, Kaldur, and Artemis nodded as they agreed with Robin. My eyes widened at Robin's words and I couldn't help but smile to my reckless. Is this what karma feel like? Doing the wrong things that will end in the right way? This life is so strange I wonder what would everyone back in Cadmus think of Angel now. I can't imagine the looks on Guardian's and Dubbilex's face seeing her punch a supervillain in the face. Maybe they could've helped me before leaving Cadmus anyway, but I could never blame for my mistake. I can just thank them, the Team, the League, and... Luna everything they have done for me and my sister.
'Thanks, guys.'
Recognized: Batman; 02, Wonder Woman; 03, Black Canary; 13.
We looked at each other in complete nervous now. This is the moment that might or will change mine and my sister's future. Because if she leave, I'll leave the Team as well.

Batman's P.O.V.
This was supposed to be a good day with Selina and the kids, but when the story of 'The Young Girl: Saver or Destroyer?' by that godforsaken woman Lois Lane. Clark orders an emergency meeting early in the morning. I've to order Robin and Aqualad to have the Team at the Cave while the debate is at effect. And was getting out of hand between this argument.
"Does anyone know why were we called here so early?" Captain Marvel yawned in his chair.
"Have any of you seen the paper?" Superman asked.
"No, since some of us live in the sea!" Aquaman pointed out. He always gets aggressive and cranky when he away from his wife in the morning since that the only time he sees her.
At each of our desk a hologram of today from the 'Daily Planet' of Supergirl punching Toyman's head off.
"Holy Moly!" Captain Marvel set up quick with a smile. "She super-punched one of most villain's head off! That's-" He stopped that sentence when everyone was looking at him with a glare or a "stop it right now" look.
"I hope you were going to say 'that's impressive', kid?" Flash asked, but only see the Captain Thunder smiling.
"Was that the real Toyman, Superman?" Captain Atom asked trying to come back to the problem.
"I won't know, but that any what I wanted to have this meeting on." He crossed his arms surprising everyone instead of me, but still caught my attention now. Then what was this meeting about? "This meeting is about the Supers getting stronger."
"Stronger? How would they be getting to that level?" Zatara asked.
He turns his attention to me with a glare to me like if I've done something wrong, "Batman care to explain the why?"
"During the time of Supergirl's power activities, I wanted to learn the limits of her and her brother's power as well. The Supers power are slow, but had been increasing just by emotions." I had lied not knowing the why either. Those siblings are rare and so different as well as in power, but like him, time seems to slow new powers to come.
"Isn't that normal?" Hawkman asked. "Teenagers sense to have strong emotions during aging."
"If so than Superboy still couldn't behavior like that in front of a child," Aquaman stated. "It's his responsibility to-"
"No, it is not his responsibility," Daina interrupted in a challenging way. Those two being the only royalty members of the League always have they disagree moments. "If memories are correct, Superboy is a child as well. This couldn't be just his duty as Supergirl's brother. "
"Are you saying it best to separate them?" Superman asked more like a statement with his arms across.
That little statement cause every member including myself to sitting up straight now with our eyes to widen up. Is he suggesting to separate Superboy and Supergirl just for the issue?
"We can't do that to them," Captain Marvel objected angrily. It's understandable to his objecting since he was really a 10 years old named Billy Baston, an orphan being raised by his only uncle.
"I agree there no need to separate," Diana added too. "The sibling has been together since Cadmus and it would be wrong to do it now."
"Wonder Woman's point does seem agreeable," Zatara agreed.
"Woah, hold on now," Captain Atom interrupted. "Maybe separating her for training is a good idea since her brother was showing little combat under the watch of Black Canary and Red Tornado."
"I believe Superboy just wanted to... What the word? Showing off to his sister," Red stated.
"Yeah, Red that the word, but are you blaming my girlfriend, nuke-boy?" Green Arrow asked in an aggress way causing more problem. "Again why aren't we look at the only expert that could be responsible for these kids!"
Superman crossed arms and glared at him t said, "Like what I've told Batman, they don't need me. I would be a reminder of what they aren't."
"Of what not being a real person?!" Canary asked. "Those children are the victims here and you're arguing that if it ok to separate them."
"Wow," Arrow smirked then crossed his arms. "Is that the new things we're calling deadbeat now?"
Now all League members except myself stand quiet and J'onn's eyes were glowing the whole time. What was the Martian Manhunter doing over there? He hasn't said a word since this whole meeting started. The greatest of having telepathy is that you can read people mind and doesn't to know the why.
"I believe that won't be necessary," the martian finally spoken causing the member to stop arguing and look at him.
"Care to explain J'onn?" I asked wanting to know just like everyone in the room.
"While everyone was discussing, I've been linking my mind to the Supers and find this unbreakable bond they have. This bond they've is something beyond my telepathy mind can go that might affect them in ever way and I fear Superboy will be leaving the Team if she leaves."
"A problem we can't afford to have if he wants to go rogue and turn against us," I counter surprising every member ready to give out my reasons and stop this pointless meeting. "He knows the location of the Team's base and Kid Flash's identity. I own that little girl my life for saving my son's life. This meeting is pointless if we don't start helping them in matter those siblings will be the one that needs the support. We're at fault here for unreal the power her and soon Superboy as well. "
"What you're ideas then, Batman?" J'onn asked.
"From now on the Supers shall be my responsibility as they uncle. If anyone wants to help then stay here, if not then leave."
Those that stayed were Wonder Woman, Black Canary, Green Arrow, the Flash, Captain Marvel, the Martain Manhunter, Zatara, Red Tornado, and Aquaman. While the other members left the Watchtower to continue they day now. Guess this meeting just made Superman ran with his tail between his legs.
"I thank you all for staying here and helping with Superboy and Supergirl."
Diana nodded, "It would be an honor, Batman."
"Can't let you have all the fun," Captain Marvel smiled.
"Now it's time to get down to business. If we're going to make this work I'll need all those that stay help."
"I can't imagine the pain of being separate from my own family," Zatara stated, now understanding that this is more about the Super then just for a future problem. "I can have my daughter, Zatanna watches the young Supergirl."
"Will Doc be helping again?" Green Arrow asked.
"When it come down to that Doctor Kelly will come, but I believe Power Girl, Martha Kent, and maybe Cadmus will know more about young Kryptonian's habits."
"Are you sure about Cadmus?" Black Canary asked in concern. "Cadmus was abusing Superboy since creates."
"But they would know more about the Super's power than anyone of us. Plus I believe its time I'll inform you all about this mystery woman called Luna that these siblings keep interesting with."
"So this was the mission you've my husband in," Diana stated.
"Do you think it wise for her to be involved in this matter?" Aquaman asked. "We know nothing about this woman so why trust her, Batman?"
"I don't, but if it comes down to that, I'll need this 'Luna' sense Superboy trust her enough to let her name them."
Everyone except Red since he can't show emotions was in shock by the new information. This Luna was leaving me more mystery since Steven lost sight of her in Northern India when she returning her wolves back home.
"Aww does that we can't know they new name?" Captain Marvel asked child-like.
"Depends. Wonder Woman, Black Canary we're leaving for Mount Justice now."
As we walked to the Zeta tube, Daina grabbed my shoulder with a smile, "It was a good thing for you to take those children under your wing." I nodded and then we left for the Supers at Mount Justice.

Superboy's P.O.V.
Recognized: Batman; 02, Wonder Woman; 03, Black Canary; 13.
"Hello, team," Wonder Woman greeted all of us in the living room then turn her glance at me. "Batman want to see only you, Superboy."
I sighed ready to face three of Justice League members for my actions. I give my sister to Robin and the Team give me a 'we'll be waiting for you in living room' from our link. Wonder Woman and I made it to the mission room ready to face the Batman and his glares.
"Wonder Woman, Black Canary can you leave for a moment," he said as they left then turn his attention to me now. "Superboy, I'm beyond disappointment at you."
"I know and I-" he send me a glare to silence me and let him continue talking. Guess this is what it like to be scowl by your parents. Kind of feel sorry Robin and his brothers.
"Someone could've been hurt and it was you that gotten hurt. What would've happened if it was your Team? Or your sister?"
"Batman... I'm sorry," I looked down, balling my fists and just feel like crap for being reckless. Again.
"Yes, you all save the day and see your sister action for saving my son and that girl, but next time let a member know your whereabout. Do I make myself clear, Superboy?"
I nodded and from there Batman places his hand on my shoulder and show me a little smile now.
"You both are going to be my responsibility from now on, okay? And I'll need your help for this path as your uncle, Conner."
The urge to sigh is something I wanted to do since the Dark Knight already knows my new name, but got to be respectful to my uncle. "Thank you and I promise I'll do best this time."
"Understood. We'll have more to discuss with Black Canary and Wonder Woman about your sister training as well as schooling and who will be watching her when missions come."
"Sure," feeling a little okay about these plans for the both of us now. I'm just happy that I can be with my sister, my Angel or pretty soon Laura.
