Maybe some promises we're broken; wasn't holding tight

But now I wanna know what it feels like

Sometimes I think I'm bound for losing it all

But I wouldn't trade it - I wouldn't trade it

I'm down for life

-Losing Myself-

State Champs


With a content sigh, Kenna's eyes fluttered open. She blinked a few times to to rid the sleep from her eye. When she was finally able to see, a smile crept onto her lips. The sight before her made her heart warm. Leaning up, the blonde used one hand to prop her body up while the other hand ran through her tangled lock. A groan to the left of her made the girl snap her attentions to the sleeping blonde beside her. Artemis made no indication that she was awake, the archer moving her arm under her pillow to get more comfortable.

"Psst Kenna!" The frantic whisper caused the quiet female to look up from the archer. Her eyes meet the the blue orbs of the black haired magician. Apparently, Kenna wasn't the only one awake. Zatanna gave the girl a smile, glancing down at the two other sleeping bodies between them. To kick off winter break, the four females on the team; Artemis, M'gann, Zatanna and Kenna had decided to have some girl time which resulted in a sleep over in the living room. It had been a bonding moment for them and Kenna couldn't have been any happier. Her relationship with the team was building back up to where it once was. They had helped her realize that a lot of the problems that had occurred were because she was distancing herself from them. They had tried to reach out but fell short when she had closed herself off. It had truly been an eye opener. The night before she had opened up about everything, well except for Luthor. She had talked about her brother and how her school friends thought he was "Eye Candy". She discussed her problems with Dick Grayson and how he started ignoring her out of the blue. Kenna even brought light to the subject of why Robin and her had gone their separate ways. The blonde had not explained the reason behind it but she had elaborated that they had gone through a falling out. For once she had let people in, shown them what was on her mind and how it was affecting her. The girls gave their input on what she should do and each suggestion continued to push her from her comfort zone. The only one that seemed reasonable was the gift idea. Zatanna had suggested that Kenna give Robin his birthday present that she had purchased months in advance to their break up.

After the initial girl talk, the girls had settled down to watch a few movies. It had truly been a girls sleepover; boy talk, nail painting, hair playing, the whole works. Now two of the four girls were awake.

"What should we do?" Kenna whispered back to the magician, her own eyes flickering down towards their sleeping companions. A devilish smirk crossed the black haired girls face and Kenna couldn't help but let out a quiet chuckle. Two devious minds think alike. Simultaneously, both girls pounced on the sleeping females; Kenna on Artemis and Zatanna on M'gann.

"Artemis!"

"M'gann!"

"Get up!" The two girls chanted together, repeatedly jumping upon the unexpecting females. M'gann and Artemis groaned, both flailing their arms in weak attempts to protect themselves from the assault. Giggles erupted from the girls as the archer and martian leaned up, now fully awake. Kenna stopped her attack only to be knocked backwards by a pillow to the face. All movement stopped and the two other girls flicked their gazes between the two blonde. Kenna could only let the shock last on her face for so long before she playfully glared, an evil and devious smirk pulled at her mouth.

"Oh you are so on Arty." The blonde sneered, raising the weapon that had been used against her. Artemis' eyes widened and before she knew it, Kenna's small body launched towards her. A squeal left the archer's lips as Kenna assaulted her with the pillow, a cheery laugh coming from the short female. Before they knew it, a full on pillow fight or war broke out. It was every girl for themselves and they hopped over make-shift beds and couches to escape each other's clutches.

"Is this the part where you guys start stripping?" A voice called interrupted the fight and the girls ceased their movements, each girl panting to catch their breaths. Kenna let a puff of hair in an attempt to blow the strands in front of her eyes. Her hair was tangled before, now it probably looked like even more of a bird's nest. Her eyes sought out the owner of the voice and once she found her guy, her happy mood diminished, being replaced by disdain. Holding on to her pillow, Kenna crossed her arms and glared at the ginger. The other girls followed her lead, crossing their arms and glared at the boy. During their fight, they had missed the arrival of both Robin and Roy. Kenna's eyes shifted from the smirking ginger to the black haired boy. He had yet to say anything but she knew he was looking directly at her. Without paying much of attention to the shorter boy, Kenna shifted her glare back to the ginger.

"You would like that wouldn't you arrow boy?" She gave a dry chuckle, her lips curling into sneer. Roy snorted, crossing his arm over his broad chest.

"On the contrary shorty, I would rather not have my eyes burn out." He restored, loving the way her body tensed in anger. She really was fun to rile up. His eyes widened behind his sunglasses when Kenna disappeared in a flash of purple smoke before appearing next to him in a flash of energy. He jumped and turned his attention to the small person beside him.

"Bite me Speedy! Now if you'll excuse us, your presents is rather annoying and I would much rather not have to start considering the pros and cons of a lobotomy by a soup spoon." She belittled, a satisfying smirk pulling at her lips when she watched his body bristle. She knew she had hit a nerve and to be honest she was getting more joy out of it then she should. The smirk grew when she heard Artemis laugh, knowing that she wasn't the only one enjoying the redheads pain. He was being an ass for no reason. This vendetta he had against them needed to die. Growling quietly to himself, Roy turned his body and marched out of the living room, leaving a smug looking blonde behind. Robin gave a small sigh, watching his friends retreating form before looking over his shoulder to meet the gaze of the lavender eyed teen. Her smug expression dwindled and she held his gaze, no words spoken between the two. One of her eyebrows rose a she looked into his covered eyes. It seemed as if he wanted to say something but he spoke no words and with another sigh, Robin glanced towards the ground and put his hands into the pocket of his jeans. He then glanced at her once more from under his lashes before following the older boy's example. Kenna furrowed her brow as her gaze followed him out. His shoulders were slumped and the look he gave her made her think he was almost asking her to hug him but then he remembered that they weren't really on speaking terms. But one thing was for certain; she missed him more than he could possibly know.


A sigh escaped her lips and Kenna crossed her arms over her chest. With a puff of air, she blew her bangs out of her face. She found herself missing Zatanna company. The magician had promised to spend the day with her school friends, meaning she had left maybe an hour or two after the girls had woken up. Kenna had been crestfallen and now she stood uncomfortably in front of Robin. Whoever had been residing in the cave were called to suit up when Batman sent in a mission. It also didn't make things any less awkward because Red Arrow happened to be skulking around. Things were not looking up.

"Advanced weapons tech have been stolen at manufacturing plants throughout Europe. And each theft coincides with tour stops made by the Haly Circus. Batman is sending us undercover to catch the thieves." Her eyes followed the boy wonders tense movements as he pointed to the icons on the holographic map. Furrowing her brow, Kenna racked her brain for an answer to the question that just popped into her head. Haly Circus.. Why did that sound so familiar? No matter how hard she tried the blonde was stumped. Another thing that seemed to puzzle her was the boy wonder himself. Even if they were not on speaking terms, Kenna knew something else was up. His normal burst of energy that he had around the rest of the team was lacking. Another thing was the ridge tone in his voice as he spoke of the mission, almost as if he was closer to it then he was letting on.

"This clown car have room for one more?" Red Arrow called, halting behind the boy wonder. Kenna couldn't help when her eyes fell into a soft glare. She knew they were friends but that didn't mean that she had to like Roy. In fact she could only handle the ginger in small bits and currently she had had enough of him for one day.

"Uh we've got this covered." Robin hesitantly muttered, glancing over his shoulder at the older boy. Kenna's eyes then narrowed into a death glare at the older boy's movements. He obviously didn't know that his close proximity was making the black haired boy uncomfortable as he leaned down to whisper something that wasn't very quiet at all.

"You've got the mission covered, but who's covering the four potential mole suspects you're bringing along?" The quiet female clenched her fists. Nails digging into the flesh of her palm. Either he knew they could hear him and he just wanted to rile them up or he really thought he was being clever. As if sensing Kenna's spike in energy, Robin glanced over and gave the blonde a pleading look, asking for her to please not make a scene. Slightly shocked that he was trying to communicate with her, Kenna nodded her head and closed her eyes, taking a deep breath to keep her powers in check. She ended up settling for biting her tongue to keep the words she so desperately wanted to say from escaping into the air.

"Okay if we are going under cover, what are we going to be? Some strange family that doesn't even look anything alike with random talents?" Artemis cut in, her eyebrows as she uncrosses her arms. Robin gave the archer a soft smirk, turning his body to fully face her.

"Precisely."


Kenna took a deep breath to calm her nerves, the bright lights suffocating her with heat. She could feel the sweat trickle down the back of her neck as she waited for her name to be called.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to the Haly International Travelling Circus! Where the world in the center ring is your oyster and these are our latest pearls! The Daring Dangers!" Kenna's eye's fell on Jack Haly, eyes scanning his person. He was the ringmaster, dressed in a red suit with a red and black top hat. She could tell he enjoyed his job, from the ecstatic ring of his voice to the gleam in his eyes.

"Dan Danger!" Kenna's eye's shot up, entranced by the way Robin swung gracefully on the trapeze.

"Dawn Danger!" Her eyes then quickly followed M'gann as she copied Robin's move. Closing her eye's Kenna concentrated on her moves as the names of her "siblings" were called.

"Diane Danger." Artemis.

"Dane Danger." Roy. Almost there.

"Dean Danger." Connor and that's when she snapped her eyes open, her short but powerful legs were being pushed to their limits as she sprinted towards her target.

"Danielle Danger." Her feet hit the small tramp launching her body into a tight roll onto the larger tramp. Uncurling her body, Kenna used her leg muscles to launch her up, hoping to god that she wasn't late. If she was a second late, the entire trick would blow up in smoke. Straightening her body out like a pencil, Kenna used her momentum to twirl her body over the her teammates who were emerging from the barrels that Connor had pitched into the air. With an upside down smile, Kenna caught the eye of the martian and boy wonder. She could feel the six arrows brush past her body as gravity pulled her down. The crowd stood to their feet letting out a large roar of applause as her feet suck into the black material of the trampoline. She felt her body shoot up into the air and she tucked her body in tight to complete so more intricate flips. In all honestly she was having more fun than she should be. It was just euphoric, the way her body felt weightless and free, the air whipping through her long tresses.

Robin! Kenna almost slipped on the tramp when the scream let loose in her head. With frightened eyes, the blonde glanced up mid jump to see Robin plummeting towards the ground. She tried everything to not let a scream rip past her throat; the audience was doing it for her.

Don't blow our cover!

ARE YOU SERIOUSLY WORRIED ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW!? Kenna asked, completely appalled with the boy wonders thoughts.

But saving your life's okay? At that moment, Kenna could swear that the clone was a god send. Her eyes followed the barrel as it hurtled up, catching the boy wonder and propelling him up towards M'gann. For down below, it would seem that M'gann was able to easily grasp his hand but apparently not.

What did I just say? Robin lightly chastised.

The crowd couldn't see me using telekinesis from below. Besides, I've been using it all night. I'm not exactly the acrobat you are." M'gann sheepishly replied, setting them both down on the platforms they started on. Kenna let out a breath of air she hadn't been aware of holding in, giving one more exaggerated flip of her body of the springy material before coming to landing and stretching out her arms in a bow. Kenna could feel her lungs burning in protest but at that moment she didn't care. He was safe and that's all she needed. When the applause died down, Kenna looked at the ground and moved her body closer to the edge so she would be able to jump down from the metal frame a hand was brought out in front of her face. Not expecting the gesture, Kenna gave the clone a tired smile and took his hand. Connor grasped her hand and helped her jump down from the tramp, dropping her hand. Kenna let out a soft giggle when Connor's hand ruffled her hair playfully. Finally they moved into an area that didn't have fluorescent lights burning down on her. Her eyes looked up from the ground and stopped on the black haired boy who had almost perished. When there eyes meet, Kenna's body lurched forward to hug him but she stopped herself. She knew she couldn't hug him, no matter how strong the urge was to glomp him until he couldn't breathe. She no longer had that right.

Robin watched the girl's body move forward and stop. He knew what she wanted to do and he knew why she had halted. They couldn't hug, no matter how much they both wanted to. So he held her gaze, conveying to her lavender orbs with his ice blue eyes that he was okay. She gave him a small nod before her gaze flickered towards the other females on the team. Kenna made her way towards Artemis and M'gann, opening her arms towards the martian. M'gann raised her eyebrows in slight surprise but did not deny the young girl a hug. Kenna buried her face in the martian's stomach, breathing in the familiar scent. Thanks to both M'gann and Conner, Robin didn't die and they had no idea how thankful she was.

"Haly, what's the deal? Giving the top slot to those Danger kids? That's our slot!" Kenna drew away from the martian's embrace and turned her body to face the opposite direction. Her gaze fell upon the acrobatic twins. Rolling her eyes, Kenna shook her head in annoyance. Of course they would be complaining about the Dangers performance, just because they knew that they had been out done. Petty squabbles were always annoying. At least Jack understood that and also found them annoying. The older man, pushed past the twins only to be stopped by a man in a crisp suit with snow white hair. Furrowing her brow, Kenna moved closer to them to quietly eavesdrop upon their conversation. Without paying attention, the short female halted her feet next to the boy wonder.

"Ah, for crying out loud, not you again! We're in the middle of a show!" Haly complained while he flailed his arms, his voice tense and stiff. The harsh tone did not seem to faze

"Then we'll talk after, but we will talk. Another city last week, another tech firm robbed. Another stop on your tour. If I prove you're responsible, I will shut you down." Kenna could not see the feds expression but she could see Haly's face harden as he sent an ice glare towards the man.

"I've got three minutes to gather props and get back to the center ring." With that, Haly pushed past the man and made his way towards the prop area. Kenna followed his movements with her eyes before snapping back when she caught the fed staring right at her. The blonde felt her body shift closer to the person next to her, unnerved by the man's glare. The man took a few steps towards their group. Her eyes scanned over his body, paying attention to the certain aspects of the older man. He sharply dressed, his suit pressed and wrinkle free. Her gaze then shifted towards his face, lingering on his aged face before shifting to his short hair; must have been a military man.

"Faraday, Interpol. New act?" He asked, revealing his identification.

"Yeah, just joined the tour." Robin responded, eyeing the man down.

"Probably clears you, but don't get too comfortable. Haly's going down for this." At the man's retreating words, Kenna could feel Robin stiffen at her side. Not wanting to draw much attention to his posture, the blonde glanced at him through her peripheral with a worried expression. What is he hiding?


Lies are an interesting thing in there own way. No matter what the motive behind a lie, a lie is still a lie. Whether it's to protect someone or to cover your ass, a lie will have a consequence. Even if you have no malicious intents behind a lie, even a white lie, it will cause trust issues. That's where the team found themselves at the moment, going over the details of last night's robbery. At first they had figured the culprit was Carlos or his brother but that was shot down quickly when they came face to face with fire breath. What was even more unsettling was Haly was covering for them.

Kenna let her fingers skim the cotton fabrics of the sheets of her temporary bed. The rest of the team were perched on the two remaining beds, except for Artemis who was leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. Kenna's attention fell on Robin's arm as the holographic screen was pulled up.

Here's the Madrid security footage and now, Paris. Letting out a quiet sigh, Kenna brought one leg up to rest on the bed frame and left the other to dang. She let one arm wrap around the propped up leg and she rested her chin upon her knee. Her eyes followed the person's moments on the video screen. The first man was prying metals bars apart on a window while the second man was walking across phone lines as if it were a tight rope.

So the strong man and the clown too. If the entire circus is involved, Haly himself may be the mastermind. Kenna's eyes flickered towards the red headed male. She so wanted to believe that Haly was innocent, that the nice man was not apart of the robbery's, but she could not be so naive. The evidence was not in his favor.

You don't know that. Robin thought, his tone slightly defensive. Kenna raised an eyebrow at the young teen.

It would explain his lies. M'gann softly added. Kenna leaned back in shock at the boy wonders outburst as he stood to his feet with his fist clenched.

" I told you to keep an open mind!" And with that, Robin fled the room but not before slamming the door shut behind him. Kenna felt her body flinch at the loud noise, grimacing at the action. The room became uncomfortably quiet at that point before M'gann broke the silence.

"Someone should talk to him." She spoke before turning her gaze towards Kenna. Kenna pinched her eyebrows together in puzzlement, especially when everyone turned their attention to her as if they agree that she be the one to talk to him; even Roy flickered his gaze towards her. Shaking her head in confusion, Kenna dropped the leg that was once propped up on the bed.

"You want me to talk to him?" She asked incredulously, her mouth slightly ajar. Her eyes flickered to every member of the team, her gaze coming to a stop on the other blonde when she opened her mouth to speak.

"McKenna, you are the most likely to get through to him. You guy's used to be so close."

"Used to, being the main point here. In case you guys haven't noticed, we really aren't on speaking terms at the moment! Hell I don't even think we can be considered acquaintances let alone friends. What do you expect me to do?" She asked, using her hand to gesture between herself and the empty space where the boy wonder had been not a moment ago.

"Kenna you got to try. He looks as if he really needs someone right now and you are his best chance. All we are asking is for you to try." M'gann tried to coax the short female. Kenna closed her mouth and couldn't help but bit her bottom lip as she glanced around at her team one more time. Finally she let out a sigh and hung her head in defeat.

"Fine, I will go talk to him but don't expect me to make any headway. He's put up his walls for a reason which means he's not going to be in the moves to have a touchy feely moment." She said, clamboring to her feet and making her way to the closet to grab a jacket. Her fingers grasp the fabric and lifted it off the hook before shutting the door. She then placed her arms through the arms sleeves. Once she had the jacket one, Kenna used both hands to pull the hair from inside the jacket, her fingers then moving to zip the jacket up.

"I can't believe I'm actually doing this. Knowing my luck, watch this shit blow up in my face." She grumbled under her breath. Without paying the team any mind, Kenna made her way out of the living quarters of the train and into the snow. She could feel her body involuntarily shudder and she buried deeper into the jacket to fight off the brisk wind. Another sigh passed her lips and she focused on the snowflakes falling around the breath that could be seen. It was pretty here, the snow falling softly to the ground. Deciding to get this over with, Kenna sought out her boy who used to be her best friend. No one else seemed to be outside;probably not wanting to leave the warmth of the living quarters. Her gaze then fell on the boy wonder, he had come to a stop in front of a poster. Her body moved on it's own accord as possible scenarios flashed across her brain. What the hell was she supposed to say? Would he even make any attempts to talk to her? Would he give her the cold shoulder like he has for the past month? The latter of the questions seemed like the most likely outcome. She could feel her teeth sink into the flesh of her lip, her hand beginning to twitch inside the pockets of her jacket. The thought of talking to him was making her anxiety sky rocket and she could feel her stomach twist uncomfortably. This well overdue conversation was about to send her into a panic attack. Kenna did everything she could do to get her mind off of the problem at hand; listening to the crunch of the snow beneath her feet, running her fingers over the soft fabric lining the inside of the pockets, how cold it was outside, anything she could possibly think of. The closer she got to him the more tense she became and the blonde had to stop herself from getting any closer. She came to a stop about twenty feet from him and took a deep breath.

Robin had not notice her and it seemed as if her he was conversing with something. She watched him lift a finger to tap the communicator in his ear. She was close enough to hear his conversation.

"Uh yeah? Confidential mission, from Batman." He spoke, placing his hand back into the jacket pocket. Kenna tilted her head to the side in confusion. Who was he talking to? Wally?

"A friend, Jack Haly." He responded after listening to the other person talk. Kenna couldn't help but let her eyebrows shoot up in surprise. Her theory was right, he was closer to this than he wanted to admit. Again the boy wonder paused, waiting for the person on the other line to speak.

"He's implicated in this global crime spree Someone in the show's dirty, but I need to prove old Jack's clean or he might lose the circus!" At that moment, Kenna wanted to forget everything and hug him. His voice sounded so broken, as if he was physically going to give up.

"I left you behind because you know my back story. I didn't want my best pal questioning my objectivity." Wally, she knew he was talking to Wally for certain at that point. Kenna let the boy's words flood over her. It was obvious that this circus meant something to him and even though she couldn't see his face, the poster he was staring intently at meant something. Her eyes then fell on the poster and her eyes widened in utter shock. Robin. The circus. Jack Haly. Everything fell into place and that moment the pieces of the puzzle came together.


This was not how she was expecting her evening to go. Standing on top of a train while it was movement wasn't something on her bucket list that's for sure. Her hair whipped around widely due to the wind. She stood next to Connor, her body crouched in a fighting stance. Her eyes looked past the clown to see Robin jump up onto of the train, pointing an accusing finger towards the man.

"That's no clown, he's the Parasite! The guy who once stole Superman's powers."

"As if you, kids, are who you claim to be Please!" The man smirked, closing his eyes as he shifted to his true form. Kenna gave an a disgusted look as he shifted back to his original grey skin. That's just disturbing. Glancing over her shoulder, Kenna saw Roy and Artemis pull themselves up onto the train. M'gann clambered up onto the other side, standing next to Robin.

"Stay out of his reach! There's no flu going around. The weakness comes when he makes physical contact and feeds on the powers and abilities of others." The boy wonder warned. Parasite gave a sickly smirk as he looked between M'gann and Connor. At that moment, Kenna had a sick feeling pull at her stomach. This wasn't going to end well at all.

"I happen to be a bit of a glutton today. Chowed down on the skills of nearly every loser in this troupe But, oh, my But the Pièce de résistance was Dawn Danger. Or whatever her real name is. Thought I'd pouch on her trapeze skills, imagine my surprise when she tasted like Martian Manhunter, instead. She made a lovely appetizer, but guess who I want for my entrée." He spoke before using M'ganns powers to draw Connor towards him. Kenna made a failed attempt to grasp the clones hand as he was dragged by an invisible force towards the bad guy. Parasites hand wrapped around Connor's neck and he sucked the clone dry of energy, causing Connor to go limp.

"M-hmm, now that's the full body Kryptonian flavor I love."

"Everyone, stay "whelmed"! Subdue, but keep your distance! Especially you!" Robin commanded, looking directly at Kenna. She understood his words, nodding her head towards him. At this moment, she was their secret weapon. Parasite didn't need to know about her powers especially seeing as he already was able to control both Connor and M'ganns powers.

Some many things happened in the next couple of minutes. Parasite tossed Connor to the side as if he was unwanted trash. He then used heat vision to disintegrate Roy and Artemis' bows. Heat vision? Where the hell did he get that? Parasite then rose into the air, also using telepathy to raise the crate he was stealing. At that moment, Kenna had never been so worried. Robin hopped on the crate in attempts to land a hit on Parasite only to smacked off the crate. His body missed the train and without thinking, Kenna launched herself to edge train and managed to grab the boy wonder's hand. She let out a painful grunt as he body weight pulled at her shoulder. Gritting her teeth, she meet his eyes with terrified look.

"I swear bird boy if you let go, I'm going to kill you!" She struggled to say, pulling her arm up to try and drag him up. She stopped when she felt a hand on her back and she glanced to the side to see Roy leaning down to help her pull Robin back onto the train. With both archers help, Kenna was able to pull the boy wonder back onto the train. She collapsed to her knees, her body aching. Her chest heaved and she glanced up from her lap to look at the black haired boy sitting in front of her. Robin took a deep breath, trying to get the adrenaline to leave his blood stream. He then glanced up when a flash of yellow came hurtling towards him. Kenna, at that moment didn't care that they didn't talk any more. She didn't care if they were friends or not, the blonde could not help herself any longer. Kenna clenched her eyes shut and launched herself at the black haired boy, clutching him to her person. She buried her face in his chest and let her tears flow freely down her cheeks. This was the second time he had almost died on this mission. If she had been even a second late, Robin would have fallen into the chasm of the mountains. He would have died then and there.

Robin's eyes widened when complete shock when the blonde embraced him as if she was his lifeline. This was the closest contact they had had in what seemed like forever. His shock died down and when he felt the wetness of her tears, he found himself returning the embrace. He ignored the fact that they had a different relationship. He ignored that they hadn't really spoken to each other in a while. He just hugged the girl closer to his body as quiet sobs racked her small frame. They had need this hug more than either of them were willing to admit.


Kenna crouched low to the ground, shaking her head in defeat. This plan was crazy, crazy being a understatement. Her eyes followed M'ganns movements as she made herself known to the parasite.

"What do you have against Geneva, anyway?" M'gann called, placing her hands upon her hips. Parasite turned and gazed at the martian as if she was a piece of meat.

"Never liked the food, but the menu keeps improving." He spoke, rubbing his hands together greedily. He then brought up a hand, his eyes glowing green as he pulled M'gann closer.

"I'm just the appetizer, remember? Here's the main course!" M'gann called, rolling under his arm as he went to punch her. She rolled to a stop on the ground and swiped his feet out from under him. Kenna glanced over from her perch and glanced at Robin and Artemis for confirmation. The boy wonder nodded his head and Kenna dropped down from her hiding spot, bending her knees to cushion her landing.

"Guess that makes me dessert." She called, drawing Parasites attention towards her. Lifting her hand, Kenna concentrated on her target. Her eyes turned the familiar shade of purple and PArasite let out a shocked gasp as his body was lifted into the air by her phase lock. He tried to struggled as he glared daggers towards her.

"Arrow!" She called and seconds later an arrow whizzed over her head, passing through her energy and colliding with Parasites body. The arrow exploded, foam expanding over his body.

"Foam? You think foam can hold me? Or stop me from crushing you with a thought? Combined Martian and Kryptonian powers here! When I get out of this I'm coming after you little girl." He called, staring hungrily at Kenna.

Things got crazy from that point on. Without really knowing how it happened, a large fire erupted around the parasite and he collapsed due to having martians weakness to fire. Kenna let out a tired puff of air. Finally, they could go home.


Kenna let her fingers glide nervously over the fabric of her jeans. Like normal, her teeth were embedded into her flesh and the familiar metallic taste seeped onto her tongue. She couldn't believe she was doing this. God forbid Zatanna who had talked her into this. All she wanted to do was go to bed but the magicians words had put that thought to an end. Now here she stood waiting for the inevitable moment to occur. She stood against the wall, waiting for Robin to make his way towards the zeta tubes to go home.

Only seconds later did the boy wonder make his appearance. He walked right past her, to caught up in his world to notice her presences.

"R-robin?" She stuttered, causing the boy to spin around quickly. He looked at her with wide eyes, taking in her meek appearance. He watched her pushed herself from the wall, keeping her eyes anywhere but him.

"I-I know that we don't really talk anymore but I wanted to give you this. Happy late birthday." She spoke, bringing the present out from behind her back. She handed the hand wrapped gift to him. Robin glanced down to look at the neatly wrapped red paper. She got him a birthday present? We he glanced back up to speak her noticed that she had fled the room; probably due to her anxiety. Sighing deeply, Robin moved to sit on the couch. He placed the box upon his lap. His finger then carefully opened the box, not wanted to really tear the nice wrapping. When the red paper was gone, he opened the lid to the large shoe box. What he found inside the box made his heart clench. A dictionary took up half of the box, next to it was something that looked like a dog collar. He felt a bitter smile grace his lips when he saw that collar, noticing the bell that hung from the choker. His fingers skimmed over the last item that resided inside the box and he lifted it up to examine it.

In his hand was a picture, one that he had wanted a copy of. The picture was of them, him sitting on the couch while she was leaning over the back with had arms wrapped around his neck. Her head rested beside his and he had one of his hands resting upon the arm that was coiled around his neck. Both teens held heartwarming picture had been taken during that week after halloween but before their kiss. He couldn't help but feel defeated. He missed her, he missed her so much. Robin then gently placed the picture back in the box before laying it next to him. He leaned forwards and rested his elbows upon his knees, running his fingers through his hair. He gripped the tresses in frustration. With one more sigh, he dropped his hands from his hair and laced his finger together in thought. Determination then crossed his face. He was going to fix this, if it was the last thing he would ever do.


Author's Note: Hey guy's! I know, I know I keep posting later and later. I'm super sorry. This is the last full week of my senior year and it has been nothing but hell week. Next week I will be totally free to write and update normally. Few, okay about the chapter. I was so excited to write this chapter. Performance is my favorite episode in the first season. Robin is just an adorable ball of mush in this episode. I'm so happy that Kenna and her friends have made up. Now all that's left is making up with bird boy. You guy's wondering what she found out in this chapter? You can probably guess but i'm still not going to say anything about it. The next chapter is going to be a big chapter. That is going to be the chapter that you guy's find out about everything that happened to Kenna before and during the time she spent at Cadmus. Why she is the way she is. I'm so excited you guy's don't even know. Another thing, is something happens between Kenna and Robin. That's all I can say right now. Okay enough rambling. I hope you liked this chapter and I can't wait to hear from you guy's! So review, favorite, and follow. Later, love you guy's 3
