I smoothed out my glitter covered dress and straightened my wings and tiara. I looked over at the note id written for Red Arrow. More than likely he'd never get it.
"Aria are you ready?" Megan called.
"Yeah!" I pulled on my glitter covered heels and ran out.
"I don't understand how you can walk in those." Kaldur told me.
"Why don't you try them sometime." I teased smiling at him; life was almost back to normal. We left to the dance and I met Drew.
"You look beautiful." He smiled he was dressed like Dracula.
"Thank you and you are a very dapper Dracula." I smiled at him; I could feel Conner's eyes burning into the back of my head.
"Let's go inside." He looked over my shoulder at Conner. We went in quickly, Drew made me laugh and we danced. Until the fake Martian attack, the lights when dark and I fought against my powers to keep them from lighting up the dark.
"I'm sorry Aria." I heard Drew whisper in the dark, and I felt the electricity run through my body and everything went black.
When I woke up I was in the back of a car and I couldn't move.
"Drew what did you do?" I croaked out he sat next to me.
"Don't struggled I've bound you with Kryptonite it seems to paralyzed you. I could feel the rope and the kryptonite in burning my palms.
"Why? Drew you were my friend." I felt utter betrayal as I looked at him.
"Why? Because you are what Father needs, he needs your power."
"Father? Lux Luthor. He found me." Fear ran through every vein in my body, he was going to kill me I knew it. The car started to slow down and we ended up in front of a jet plane. Drew snapped his fingers and the two men in front of me picked me up and dragged me onto the plane, I let my power surge forward to try to get away I shot up into the air in a beacon of light and the suddenly the kryptonite seemed to dig into my arm and blinding pain shot through me I fell to the ground.
"I wouldn't try to escape again." Drew growled at me before they dragged me back to the plane. I blacked out again.
"I can't find Aria." Megan told Conner,
"What do you mean you can't find her?" There a sound of panic in his voice.
"She's not here I can't find her, neither is Drew." And Megan felt the surge of anger from Conner.
"Megan can't you try to connect to her mind, link us?" Wally suggested, she nodded and closed her eyes reaching out as far as she could until she found her.
"Aria?" Megan could sense the pain, "Megan! Help me! Help me!" the panic was evident. Megan doubled over in pain,
"Megan what is it?" Conner asked.
"He's going to kill me." And then the connection broke, she gasped for air.
"Someone took her. They're going to kill her." Megan looked up.
"We need to get back to base." Wally said for once he was serious.
"Megan what do you remember from your connection?" Batman asked, Kaldur paced back and forth.
"I could sense Drew's mind, he took her I know it. He knew her weakness and her pain stemmed from Kryptonite. She said he was going to kill her." Megan said quietly, Conner slammed his fist into the wall.
"I'm going to rip him apart." He snarled.
"The background check on Drew pulled up something." Robin said suddenly. Artemis read the screen then backed up.
"He's Lux Luthor's son."
"That is why he took her. Luthor killed her parents to find the star that she has become." Kaldur spoke.
"Then we must go after Lux Luthor." Wally replied.
"We have to get her back." Zatanna said she was as much part of the group as anyone else now.
"Get who back." Red Arrow stood in the entrance, and then the screen flashed on. Lux Luthor was on it.
"Hello Little Heroes." Conner's eyes flared like a flame,
"Luthor." Artemis growled, he smiled wickedly back at her.
"Where is she?" Conner roared suddenly as if the smile had been a death threat. In a way it was.
"Oh She's here would you like to see her little heroes?" the screen fuzzed and it moved to an image of Aria bound to a chair.
"Aria!" Red called out, she lifted her head.
"Red?" Blood dripped down her face.
"Why isn't she healing?" Wally asked, and then Drew walked into the view.
"Why? I've managed to subdue her powers. With a rather simple tool." He smiled evilly before plunging a piece of green kryptonite into her side. Her eyes lit up like the sun and red light exploded out of her as she screamed.
"Don't touch her!" Red growled like a feral wolf.
"Conner!" Aria cried out as her light faded,
"Oh she cries for big brother, will you save her?" Luthor laughed before the screen clicked off.
"We must save her." Kaldur stared at the black screen.
"We will." Robin said as started tracking the source of the video.
"I want the team assigned to this immediately alert all league members and set a high stake on his head." I hid behind the pillar as Dad spoke on the phone.
"What's going on?" I stepped out something wasn't right.
"Jon what have I told you about eves dropping?" I'd never seen that look in Dad's eyes he was scared.
"Dad it's about them isn't it. I know about the league, and you never call them the team. It's the Team of sidekicks isn't it?" I was ready to find out.
"How did you know?" Dad was bad liar and found it easier to just tell me the truth.
"Aria." He frowned.
"Jon I need you stay here on the matters of the team. I will take you there when it is not this dangerous."
"Dad what are you talking about?" I got a bad feeling about the team.
"Lux Luthor has located a weakness of mine and the team; I do not need him to find out about you." I stared at him, Aria. Lux Luthor had Aria.
"He took Aria didn't he? Dad I need to find her! I can help just let me help."
"No! Jon you will stay here and you will stay hidden." He ordered me before taking off into the sky from our balcony.
"You've done well son." Luthor spoke to Drew I didn't open my eyes I only listened.
"How will you extract her power?" Drew asked.
"I won't. I'll clone it and create a new self, transfer my memories and I will be reborn just like the little star. But I'll have to destroy the original of course." I felt my heart constrict, he really was going to kill me.
"Aria?" I heard Megan's voice in my head.
"Aria!" I heard three voices call my name.
"How did you find me?" I asked them, I could hear them talking.
"I traced the transmission Luthor sent us; we're outside hold on just a bit longer." Robin told me.
"He's going to take my powers and clone them into a new version of himself. He's going to kill me." I was frantic to get out, I was losing the link as my blood pumped the kryptonite further.
"Hold on Aria." It was Red and then the link broke and the wall exploded around me.
It was only moments until the crashing and exploding stopped. They untied me and I opened my eyes.
"Take it out." I croaked, the kryptonite burned.
"I can't." Conner stared down at me, he couldn't touch it.
"Move." Kaldur ordered and he knelt in front of me, "I am sorry." And he ripped it out my chest in one swift movement. I launched them all into the air with one wave of light.
"You're safe now." Conner picked me up,
"Thank you for coming." I whispered.
"You're my sister I will always come for you." He told me quietly as he carried me out of the building and to the Bio Ship.
Ok there it is you guys hope you like it! And Btw spoiler alert I'm so happy Kaldur isn't evil so beware of my love triangle-square-octagon thing lol
