Robin stumbled through the hallways of the Justice Cave holding his head. A horrible pain-filled headache had plagued his head as he fell to his knees. Robin clutched his head in agony when he felt his whole body began to shake violently. He removed one of his hands from his pounding head and held it out in front of him. His hand was quaking so intensely that his fingers seemed to blend together into a green blur. Robin tried to get a hold of himself and think for a minute, but the pain was so unbearable that thinking was out of the question. The back of his head started to burn as if a small star had been implanted in the back of his skull. Tears formed in his eyes as the "star" seemed to grow as if it were trying to burst out of his head. He felt this hate burn in him. This incredible fiery loathing that he wanted to administer on someone. This pure abhorred nature that was blacker than the soul of the villains he fought everyday. He wanted to kill. To hurt. To maim someone and make them feel horrible. As a reward for those treacherous thoughts, the pain loosened its vice upon his brain. The Boy Wonder could think again. But, all his thoughts seemed to come up unpure and evil.
If Impulse were here, I would shatter his bones. That boy is so annoying it would be a blessing to destroy him. He thought than quickly counteracted that thought with another one No! No, I don't want that! I'm thinking like a criminal! What's happening to me? Imp's my friend! I- the pain once again growing in his skull interrupted his thoughts. It was as if to punish him for thinking that way.
The world began to spin wildly out of control, as the pain grew more and more unendurable. Robin would've wanted to know what was going on, would've. But all he could concentrate on, was the suffering he was experiencing. Just as the immense torment reached its peak, everything went black.
"Did you ever have to water a plant with yourself?" Bart asked curiously to the water-girl. The other Young Justice members had gathered around the old JLA table and were having a competent discussion before Bart piped up.
"I don't think she's ever really had that pleasure, Imp." Cassie's eyebrow twitched with annoyance, "But getting back to the conversation, Rob's probably finding out ways to locate your brother or reading up on poisons or something like that." She assured the liquid girl and her group. Although, WonderGirl was mostly trying to assure herself.
"Yeah," Arrowette smiled comfortingly at the girl, "he's probably just fine. So let's all just relax. Now, I don't think we've introduced ourselves properly yet. I'm Arrowette" Arrowette pointed to herself and then looked at WonderGirl.
"Oh! I'm WonderGirl." She smiled at the liquid person and looked over at Secret.
"Huh? Oh, I'm Secret. But, you can call me Suzie if you want." Secret looked over at Superboy.
"Hi I'm Superboy, and you can call me anytime." He grinned slyly. Then he looked over at Impulse who was taping his fingers on the table at super-speed not paying attention. "Ahem…" He coughed a little to get Bart's attention. The speedster barely paid two milliseconds of notice to the cough. "You wanna introduce yourself, Kid Flash?" Superboy smirked evilly knowing that would get Impulse's attention.
"Hey! My name's Bar-Impulse!" Impulse scowled menacingly. The Kid merely beamed smugly.
"It's nice to meet you all," The water-girl was "sitting" in Robin's chair nervously playing with a strand of her "hair". "I really don't have a name. I was never really called anything for a long period of time. But, it was nice to finally know your names."
"That's what it was like for me too." Secret said as she floated over the Aquaman chair as she reminisced, "I didn't have a name but Arrowette gave me the name of 'Suzie'. Maybe we could give you a name!" Suzie suggested excitedly.
"I would like that." The water girl nodded happily.
"Bart!" Impulse jumped to his feet swiftly, "We can call her Bart!" The others sighed.
"Isn't that just a bit egotistical? You're sounding like Kon." Arrowette laughed.
"Ha ha, Cissie."
"But, Bart's a great name! She can be 'Bart II Barry III'! It's perfect!"
"But, she's not a boy and 'Bart' is your name. We'll get you two confused." Cassie shook her head and turned back to the nameless girl. "What about something like…Melony? Or Wendy?"
"We're not going to name her after a fast-food chain. How about…Stormy!" Bart offered.
"That's better than 'Bart', but why Stormy?" SB inquired.
"Cause she's like a puddle! Like, you know, after it rains you get puddles on the ground." Imp explained. The Kid raised an eyebrow at Bart. "Well you called her a 'perverted puddle' before."
"And I am truly sorry for calling you that." He said to the water girl.
"Ok…how about Wada! Like water with a Brooklyn accent! All the people in Brooklyn'll thank us!" The teen speedster looked from one annoyed face to the next. "What?"
"Would someone get him some rubber bands to play with?" Kon asked rolling his eyes.
"How about…Marina?" Wondergirl suggested after thinking for a minute.
"That's a great name, WonderGirl!" Arrowette nodded in agreement.
"I like that name." The newly named liquid person was pleased with her new name.
"We should've called her 'Bar-'" Imp was in the middle of pouting when a loud crash echoed off the halls of the Justice Cave. "Whatwasthat?" He asked that as another loud smash of glass shattering upon the ground ruined the silence of the meeting.
"I dunno…but I'm gonna find out!" Superboy flew up and headed toward where the sound was coming from. The rest of the group followed quickly except for Impulse who was already there. The other 5 arrived to stare agape in horror at the sight before them.
