TWO YEARS LATER

"Billy Numerous is in containment," Miss Martian said through the intercom. "Beta squad headed home."

"Great," I said with a smile through the com.

Recognized Kid Flash B22, Silver Magic B16, Blue Beetle B17, Samurai B24, El Dorado B25

"Alpha squad is in the house," Bart said taking off his mask. These last two years have been good to him. He's taller, muscular, and more mature, which is expected since he will be graduating this coming school year. He swung an arm over my sister's shoulders as she flashed him a smile. She has also changed into a younger version of our mother with blonde hair and blue eyes.

"With another successful mission, Ese," Jaime said as the Blue Beetle covering retreated into the scarab attached to the middle of his back.

"Just in time for date night eh, Sam?" Eduardo said with a smile to his girlfriend of a year now. She blushed and shrugged in response. She was still adjusting to her powers and in the process of becoming trilingual, learning how to speak and read English and Spanish.

"As long as you are back by curfew and cause no trouble like last time," I said grabbing the flash drive from my sister which held information that caused the mission. "You are free to do whatever you want." I thought for a second. "Mostly," I amended.

"So arcade and dinner in Central City is bueno?" Eduardo asked.

"Muy bueno, just be back by curfew," I respond.

I sat in an office space of the Watchtower. Alpha team had recovered footage from a group of Justice League extremists of recent attacks by metahumans. We got word that they were going to alter the video and release it to the press. The Justice League is still trying to get a better public opinion from the whole Reach predicament.

"Whatcha got?" Nightwing asked as he came in the room, behind me. I covered his shift for him tonight while Batgirl helped him out with a big gang bust tonight in Bludhaven.

"I've watched six of the twenty videos," I said leaning back in my seat as I held my notebook and a pencil. "Ice, fire, earth, all we are missing is air to have all the nations, a shape shifter appeared in two of them same build in both videos but in one you can catch him changing to a smaller build to blend in to Bourbon Street crowd in the New Orleans video."

"I'll watch the rest of them and compare notes," he laid a hand on my shoulder. "You should head home."

I nod, "Yeah," I said checking the time. "I will get there just before their bed time."

"MOMMY! MOMMY!" a chorus sounded as I opened the front door. I took off my shoes just in time for two toddlers to stumble and grab onto me.

"How are my beautiful babies today?" I asked as scooped them both up. "Were you good for your Daddy?"

I approached Kaldur who was getting up from his spot on the ground surround by numerous toys. "Hey, Babe," I said giving him a kiss.

"How was monitor duty?" he said grabbing Manuel from me and grasped my now empty hip.

I shrugged. "It was the usual, the team had two successful missions. Silence for the League. I watched some of the videos that Alpha received. Dick got out early and came to relieve me." I leaned in for another kiss which he happily obliged. "Did you have fun with the twins?" He was supposed to take Dick's shift but he had been taking a lot of the Team training sessions and missed spending time with the twins.

"As I always do," Kaldur said looking down at Manuel how was leaning his head on his father's shoulder. "I think it may be time for bed." I nodded in agreement as Alena rubbed her eye.

I woke up to a hand rubbing along my naked back. I tensed my muscles and stretched before turning my head to look at him. "Good morning."

He leaned in and gave me a slow kiss. "Good morning, Love."

"We need to get ready soon," I said with a groan. "Artemis and Rocky are coming over for a play date."

"You can cancel."

I snorted. "While that sounds appealing, several angry toddlers along with their retired yet still in practice superhero mothers is not worth while repercussions." I got up from the bed nude and turned to look at him. "The twins aren't up yet. I'm going to take a shower," I make my way to the bathroom door stopping at the threshold. "We can always conserve some water, Waterboy," I said with a smirk. I can guarantee that there was most likely no water conserved.

Parker Russel West was the perfect mixture of his parents. Blonde hair like his mother with green eyes like his father along with his freckles. He laughed at all of his father's cheesiest jokes and actions and was already showing a stubborn streak that could rival both of his parents. He showed no signs thus far of being a speedster which surprisingly both of his parents are okay with. 'He can choose if he wants to be a hero, if he has the speed he might feel obligated to be a hero.' Wally said when I asked him.

Amistad Ervin is the spitting image of his mother, thank god, and the light of his mother's life. Her relationship with the father, a douche bag of the highest order who left her, pregnant at the altar, because he wasn't ready. He is a male version mini me of his mother with a head full of hair and much more rambunctious personality.

The four toddlers all sat in a larger play pin (an inflatable miniature pool from the grocery store lined with blanket) while we sat on the couch observing them with wine.

"So I think Kaldur wants another kid," I said as I sipped my glass. "He has been hinting and we have been doing it almost every night."

"You sound like that's a bad thing," Rocky said with a smirk.

"The sex part, no," I said while looking at the twins. "The 'another kid' part I'm not too keen on."

"Why not, Cart?" Artemis said looking at me curiously. "You're a great mom."

"Yeah, I love being a mom, I just don't want to spread myself too thin. It's a perfect juggling match we have going on right now and I don't want to throw another kid into the mix and end up dropping all the balls," I said with a shrug. "I also like where we are right now, we are finally healed from the whole undercover fiasco."

"Well, you're the only one with that issue for now at least," Rocky said.

"Yeah, Wally was raving about all the kids we were going to have," Artemis said with an eye roll. "One kid and he already cries uncle."

They stayed for only a short while and left after lunch when they kids began to get way to cranky to be able to deal with each other. The twins were down for a nap when Kaldur and Connor came home after a male bonding lunch thing.

"Hey," I said as Kaldur kissed me. "How was it?"

"Nice," he said wrapping his arms around my waist. "How was the play date?"

"Also nice. No one got hit by a large Lego and there was no biting today," I said with a smile. "And we all had wine, a great play date."

"Carter, what is taffeta?" Connor asked from his place, leaning against the island.

"It's a type of dress fabric," I said turning to look at him. "M'gann?"

"M'gann."

"You know she is dropping hints, right?" I asked with a raised brow.

"What hints?"

"Conveniently leaving around bridal magazines left over from Rocky's almost marriage, talking about fabrics, and her basically planning Mom and Dad's wedding," I listed off the things with my fingers. "She wants you to propose genius."

"Do Martians have weddings?" Connor asked confused.

"Does it matter if Martians have weddings?" I asked with an eye roll. "She's on Earth because she wanted to be a part of the culture and be as close to a human as she could. Ask her if she ever thinks about you two getting married and if she says yes, you owe me a favor."
