From Author- Thank you again my wonderful reviewers! Like I said yesterday, those were the last two chapters a day updates. I'll be able to reach my goal with only one chapter a day now.

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this chapter!

Each and every day went by and I was slowly feeling worse instead of better. Even though I know my teammates say that they don't think any differently of me, I still can tell that they look at me differently. And, God only knows what the Justice League think of me now…the fact that a partial Lady of Chaos was among them.

It was just a disaster and I could feel myself shrinking away from my team.

"Heather?" Artemis said through the door to my room after she knocked. I was sitting on my bed, just staring at my wall. I don't know how long I was there for. I didn't respond to her.

"C'mon Heather, open up. I know you're in there." Artemis urged from the other side of the door. Still, I said nothing.

"Don't make me blast open this door because you know I will." She said and finally, I slowly got up from my bed and walked over to the door to open it. She stepped through a moment later, just gazing at me.

"Heather, you can't keep yourself locked away in your room like this. It's not healthy. And, the others as well as myself are worried about you." Artemis said, putting both hands on my shoulders. I was silent for a moment.

"You guys probably think I'm some evil entity now." I muttered.

"No, we don't. None of us really know what to think about this…Lady of Chaos thing but, even if you do have the chaos powers inside of you, you've overcome them numerous times already." Artemis said, making me look up at her in mild shock.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"I mean that every time you suit up and go out with us to take down criminals, you beat those chaos powers. Chaos powers are evil and if you truly were a 'Lady of Chaos,' you would've embraced those evil powers but you didn't. You somehow were able to use those powers for good and that's what makes you a better person, Heather." Artemis answered. Again, I felt like someone both verbally slapped me and clicked a light bulb on over my head. She was right. If I didn't use the chaos powers for evil then I'm not evil. I'm better than that. A wide smile broke out on my face and I hugged Artemis tightly.

"Thank you, Artemis. Your words hit harder than any of your punches." I said, laughing. Artemis joined in the laughter and hugged me back.

"What are best friends for?" She asked, smiling at me. I smiled back and she grabbed my hand, pulling me out of the room.

"Now, c'mon, we gotta set up for Wally's surprise birthday party." She said, pulling me into the kitchen.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that." I said and she laughed.

"How could you forget? He reminds us about it about five times a day." She said and we spent the rest of the morning laughing and setting up for the party. We helped M'gann bake two cakes and some cookies.

Later on, when everyone else huddled into the kitchen, we turned off the lights and waited for Wally. I heard the zeta beams chime in his name and code number before saying that the tubes would be down because of the weather outside. The redhead walked into the room and we flipped on the lights, screaming "Surprise!" to him. He grinned happily and looked excitedly at the food and sweets.

"Happy sweet sixteen, Wally." I said, going over and hugging him. He was taller than me by a few inches but not so much that I had to practically stand on my toes like I did with Roy.

"Thanks, Heather." He said, hugging me back. I then did a little performance where I lit the candles from a good fifty feet away and didn't miss one. Everyone clapped once I was done and I bowed playfully.

"C'mon birthday boy, make a wish." M'gann said, pushing the cakes in front of the speedster. Wally grinned and blew out all of the candles in one puff of air. I helped M'gann cut the cake and pass the slices around. As tradition, we waited for the birthday boy to take the first bite…

Although, Wally just shoved the entire piece in his mouth and devoured it. I shook my head. Oh, Wally.

But, the celebration was cut short when Batman called us into the lobby, wanting us to put on our thermal stealth gear. Once in the lobby, he began explaining about how there were some suspicious ice fortresses hovering in the sky over major cities. Both the League and the team were going to take care of these fortresses.

A shame for Wally though, he had another mission but by the sound of it, it was just as important. A little girl needed a heart transplant so Wally needed to run the heart across the United States to get it to her.

Once Wally left, we headed out to go up to the ice fortresses and take them down. Guns were blasting at us from the moment we got there but we managed to take them down. It felt good, fighting alongside Andromeda again. It had been awhile since I had done this and it was even better because I was also fighting alongside the rest of the Justice League.

It felt like hours that we were fighting and perhaps it was but, eventually, we took down the fortresses and the ridiculous snow day ceased. There was still a lot of snow on the ground, of course, but, at least now there won't be any more.

Once we got back, the rest of the team was informed about what Wally did on his mission. The girl he saved was the Queen of Vlatava. So, in other words, he saved an entire country from not only losing its queen but also handing the country to who was next in line: Count Vertigo.

About a week later, we were sent on a mission to Qurac where the leader was planning on uniting Bialya and Qurac. I couldn't help but glance over at Robin, remembering how he reacted when I told him about my past, along with the others. Even after I asked him after what happened in Bialya, he respected my space and didn't look into the matter. I smiled at the thought.

While we were in Qurac, we had saved a woman and her son, Marie Logan and Garfield Logan. M'gann seemed overly fond of Marie for some odd reason but she was quick to hide it. I didn't ask questions, focused on the mission at hand.

Then, Biaylian pilots flew over and shot at the Logan's house we were recuperating in. Garfield was hurt in the attack and needed a blood transfusion. M'gann said she could do it by morphing her blood type to his. She saved his life.

Going back to the real mission at hand, we found out how the leader was being controlled (because we knew he would never give Qurac to Queen Bee willingly). It was Psimon. He was back but, something had happened before we could go in and stop him. I don't know what he did but it was like he took a sledgehammer to my head and knocked me out. When I came to along with the others, M'gann had subdued him.

We headed back to the Logan's to check up on Garfield. The boy had mentioned how M'gann looked identical to how his mom looked when she was on this old show called Hello, Megan! He showed us a tape and it was true, M'gann looked exactly like her. When asked about it, M'gann said that the form she was in right now (the Marie Logan look alike) wasn't her true form. She then showed us her real form: a bald Martian with similar facial structures to Martian Manhunter. We still accepted her, of course, but, she remained convinced that the image she put up, the one that looked like Megan from the show, was who she really was.

Once we had headed home and were back in the Cave, I decided to give Roy a call to let him know that I was doing better after my talk with Artemis a few days ago. I called his number and he picked up a moment later.

"Hello?"

"Hey Roy." I said.

"Hey Heather. How…how are you feeling?" He asked a little slowly, like he was afraid that certain words would hurt me.

"Much better. Artemis and I had a talk and she knocked some sense into me." I said, leaning back on my bed with the phone pressed to my ear.

"I hope not literally." Roy chuckled.

"If I didn't let her words sink in, she might've." I said, giggling. There was a little bit of silence between us before I broke it.

"Hey…can I come see you? I miss you." I whispered and it was true. Hearing his voice suddenly made me feel slightly lonely. I wanted to see him.

"Of course. Come on over." Roy said and I smiled before saying a quick goodbye and hanging up. Then, I swung my legs over the bed, grabbed my winter jacket and headed for the zeta tubes. They zapped me to Star City and I made my way to Roy's. When I got there, I knocked on the door and a moment later, Roy opened the door. He was wearing a red turtle neck and black sweats. I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling his face down to kiss me. I felt him smile and he kissed me back, pulling me into his apartment and shutting the door with his foot. We broke apart a moment later and he let me take off my shoes and coat.

"Hot chocolate?" He asked, going over to the cabinets and pulling out the box of hot cocoa mix. I looked at the box.

"It has mini marshmallows in it….I'm sold." I said, grinning. Roy laughed and pulled out two packets before grabbing some cups. I grabbed the tea kettle and filled it with water before turning on the stove, letting the water boil. Once it boiled, or was at least hot enough, we poured the water in and stirred in the mix. I blew on the steaming drink and took a sip. The warmth filled my body and it felt so nice and tasted so good.

Kudos to whoever created chocolate.

"How about we watch a movie?" Roy suggested, as we walked into his living room. I smiled.

"So we can cuddle?" I asked, smiling innocently. Roy looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

"What? You're cuddle-able." I said and now he gave me a look like 'are-you-serious?'

"Is that even a word?" He asked.

"In my book, it is." He chuckled and shook his head before ruffling my hair.

"Cute, Heather, very cute." He said, smiling at me. I smiled back and we sat down on the couch, looking through his movie collection. Finally, we settled on watching Lord of the Rings the Fellowship of the Ring. I drank the rest of my drink before setting the empty cup down on the coffee table and lacing my hand with Roy's. He didn't seem to mind as we sat there, watching the movie and enjoying each other's company.

One part came up in the movie that made me realize even more that I shouldn't keep myself away from people and that I should continue on:

"I wish the Ring had never come to me; I wish none of this had happened."

"So do all who live to see such times but that is not for them to decide. All that we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

I smiled at the conversation between Frodo and Gandalf. The wizard was right. I shouldn't waste my time away and keeping myself away from people. Because, if I do that, I'll only be hurting the people I care about and the people that care about me.

I squeezed Roy's hand a little out of reflex at that thought. I then scooted closer to him and leaned my hand on his shoulder. He unlaced our fingers and used that arm to wrap it around my shoulder, holding me there.

I won't give this up. I'll protect what I have.

From Author- So I apologize for the short chapter but today was such a drag…it was hard for me to motivate myself to type today. But still, I made up for it with a little RoyxHeather time. Hope you all don't hate me for the short chapter. Review please!
