M'ganns eyes snap open and she gasps for air. She slowly sits up, Captain Marvel slowly helps Wally up behind her, while Red Tornado helps Artemis. She gasps in relief as she sees Connor sitting up, Wolf's giant head in his lap. While Kaldur slowly pushes himself up by his elbow.

"You're all alive!" She is relieved.

Robin sweats as he pushes himself to sitting, looking around.

"What happened in there?" Batman asks of Manhunter.

"The exercise, it all went wrong." Manhunter says.

"Exercise?" Robin's voice cracks as he heaves in his breaths.

"Try to remember." Batman insists.

"What you experienced was a training exercise. You all knew this going in. What you didn't know was that it was a train-for-failure exercise."

"That is why you hardly grieved." Manhunter picks up.

"Even when Wolf was disintegrated before your eyes."

Connor continues scratching at one of Wolf's ears.

"But all that changed when Artemis died." Wally looks to the still silent Artemis as she looks at her hands in her lap.

"Though consciously Miss Martian knew it was not real her subconscious mind could not make that distinction. She forgot it was only an exercise. And her subconscious took control, making all of you forget too." The whole Team turns to a distraught M'gann. M'gann then said

"Uh, I'm… I'm so sorry." She tried looking between both her teammates and her mentors. Connor then stepped forwards and yelled

"This isn't her fault! Why didn't you stop the exercise?" Martian Manhunter tried to calm him down by saying

"We tried. But M'gann had a death grip on the scenario. Even Artemis, who should have awakened upon her death, was so convinced she had passed, she slipped into a coma. I realized I would have to wrestle control from Miss Martian's subconscious from within. But upon entering the reality I was overwhelmed by your collective emotion. There was too much noise to think clearly to remember why I was there. The deaths of Aqualad and Superboy helped. But only when the mothership exploded, and Robin and Kid Flash were silenced did my mind clear enough to remember my true purpose. To shock M'gann out of the exercise before your comas became permanent."

He then looked towards the Dark Knight and said

"My apologies. I had no idea a training exercise could be so dangerous… so damaging"

M'gann is turned away from her teammates, a hand covering her face. Captain Marvel approaches her, Connor close behind.

Manhunter turns to leave and nearly collapses, leaving Tornado and the Bat to support him. Batman then asked quietly

"As bad as all that?"

"Perhaps worse." Red Tornado makes an easy observation and said

"Yet this is not what troubles you."Batman helps the Manhunter stand again.

"Make no mistake. My niece is untrained and cannot be held responsible for this… for our debacle.

"No one blames her. But clearly we underestimated her abilities."

"In terms of raw power, she has the strongest telepathic mind I have ever encountered." She sobs in Captain Marvel's arms, while Connor can only stand by. He looks over his shoulder at the other two Leaguers.

"Stronger by far than mine" Robin then looked around before saying

"Where's Wynonna?"

Robins P.O.V.

I looked around the room but couldn't see Wynonna anywhere. I looked at Batman and asked

"Where's Wynonna?" all the adults in the room went silent. Artemis then said

"She wasn't there with us, was she?" M'gann wiped her eyes before saying

"No, I would have felt it" I looked at Batman once more and said

"Batman?" He looked at me before bringing up the holoscreen.

He brought up the camera footage from the infirmary before saying

"We aren't sure what happened. Wynonna was supposed to be part of the training exercise but after the mental link was established, Wynonna fell into a coma immediately. We brought Zatara here to try and identify the problem but he was unsuccessful. He thinks that her spirit has been separated from her body" the footage showed Wynonna, lying on one of the beds and she looked like she was in pain.

Batman then continued

"As you all know, we know very little about the Patrovian Race. So right now…" I cut him off by saying

"You have no idea how to help her"

"We're doing what we can" M'gann then said

"Did I do this to her?" Manhunter quickly replied

"No, this was not you. This was something else" Kaldur then stepped forward and said

"I'm going to ask the question on everyone's mind. How long can Wynonna last without her spirit?" Everyone went silent for a couple of moments before Batman said

"2-3 Weeks"

Mount Justice; October 16th 12:00 EDT

Wynonnas P.O.V

The Team is relaxing on the beds that were brought into the main hall. Wally and Kaldur already laying back, Connor is propped up on one elbow as he petted Wolf. M'gann relaxing her hands under her head, Artemis is on her side, her right arm under her head. Robin was propped up on an elbow, looking to his mentor while Captain Marvel stood nearby and Red Tornado was working on a HoloScreen. I'm sat on the side of the bed whilst saying
"So let me get this straight, this exercise is designed to make us fail?" Batman answered me
"Yes, so we can see how you would react in an end of the world situation, if it were to arise. Now lie down" I glanced at Robin he just gave me a small smile and shrugged. I rolled my eyes and said
"Fine" So I laid down on the bed and got comfortable just as Manhunter stood in the middle of the circle. I saw him lift his hands and closed his eyes in concentration. Everything then started to drift….

When I opened my eyes, I expected to see the rest of the team but I didn't. Instead I was laying down on a seriously soft bed in an unfamiliar room. I sat up on the bed and looked down at what I was wearing; A plain, purple, silk, wide strap, floor length dress.
"What on earth?" As I swung my legs over the side of the bed a voice echoed in the room
"How are you feeling, Princess?" I jumped at the voice and looked around for a source, but there wasn't one. I stood up saying
"What are you?"
"I am Kelex, your medical attendant"
"Where am I?"
"Your confusion will subside as your temperature stabilizes. Would you care to dress?"

A door then slid open revealing a really familiar lace up, dark blue dress with round neck, with a black and white trim, and long Flare Sleeve. I stared at it for a moment before saying
"This was my mother's. She used to wear it when she would put me to bed at night. Where did you get this?"
"I gave it to you"

I turned on my heels and saw someone I haven't seen since I was just a child.
"Mother? How could you be here?" she came over and brushed some of my long hair behind my ears whilst saying
"I stayed home every day while you recovered from the Argo fever" Taking a step away from her I said
"This can't be real" her face dropped slightly as she said
"Oh, sweet Wynonna... You must have had terrible hallucinations from the fever. But it's over now. You're awake. You're safe. You're home" I then quickly went over to the window and was lost for words.

The Sky looked like diamonds and because of that you could see the way the sun's surface moved. The oceans were sapphire blue, with red sand beaches that stretched for miles. Fields full of lilac coloured grass surrounded the city below and had animals roaming free.

"I'm on Patrovia"

I kept looking out of the window for a couple of minutes before backing away saying

"This can't be happening. I have to get out of here" My breathing sped up as I headed for the door, but stopped when my 'mother' stepped in front of me

"Wynonna, please calm down" I then lifted my hand expecting to use my powers, but nothing. Pulling my hand back I muttered

"I don't have my powers" 'mother' then reached out to touch my shoulder whilst saying

"We are Patrovian. No one has had powers here for centuries" I looked up in shock and sad

"What? No, someone is manipulating me by using my memories against me"

I stepped back and looked around the room. Then my eyes landed on a small statue I made when I was young. Picking up, I said

"Do you see that? I made it for my father when I was five. I even remember getting upset. I couldn't get the wings right" She smiled and said

"And then he told you it was perfect. And that he loved it, and you, with all his heart" I sunk down onto the bed, with the statue clutched in my hands

"He made me feel so proud. And so happy. Like he always did" she sat down next to me and said

"See? You do remember"

She reached out to touch me again, but I shot to my feet saying

"NO!...I also remember saying goodbye to you. And hugging you so tight. Never wanting to let go. I've fantasized about all of this every day since I left….I don't know how this is happening, I don't understand. Something has to be causing this" I ran my hands through my hair trying to think of what happened. My 'mother' then got up and said

"Wynonna, nothing is wrong. I told you. You're safe at home"

"This is not my home! My home is back on…" I can't remember

"Back on…"

Think Wynonna … Bingo

"Earth!" Mother raised her eyebrow and said

"Earth is thousands of light years away. And why would I ever send you to that primitive planet?" I went to argue with her but stopped when I heard someone enter the room behind me

"Wynonna" I turned around and was face to face with my father

"Father?" he smiled at me.

Backing away from the pair, I said

"No. No, this is... Cannot be real. This is not real. This is not real" Mother went over to father and said

"It's the fever again" they both sighed. I looked around the room once more and when I saw a crack in the wall another memory came to mind

"I remember playing right there. And I made this crack when I tripped chasing after Aunt Astrid" as i traced my hand over the crack Father said

"Yet, even after you fell, you got right back up again. Nothing can keep you down" I then began muttering

"No, no. I want to go home to…" I drew a blank

"Why can't I remember?!" Father stepped forward and said

"All nightmares end the longer we are awake"

"No, wait... I still... I feel it. I have glimpses of... ...flying" Then mother said

"We only fly in our dreams, Wynonna"

"I have friends there who need me. Family…"

I was cut off by a small voice

"Wynonna" A small hand then gripped onto mine, looking down tears sprung to my eyes

"Tegan" My little brother. He then held up a small box and said

"Do you remember how to open it?" He was holding the puzzle box I was given for my fourth birthday. I took the box and opened it within 4 moves. He then lead me over to the window and said

"Look, sister. There's Patrovia. Isn't it beautiful?" I crouched down next to him and wrapped an arm around him saying

"It's so beautiful"

3 weeks later

Mount Justice; November 6th: 11:30 EDT

Robins P.O.V.

It took about a week but star labs managed to rig up the device and mixed with some Martian telekinesis it should help me connect with Nonna. Whilst Batman is helping set up the device, I went over to Wally and said quietly

"Wals I need a favor" He looked at me and replied

"Name it"

"I know Batman. If he thinks I'm in trouble when I'm plugged into that thing, he's gonna pull me out, whether I've saved Nonna or not. I need you to stop him. I either come back with her, or I don't come back at all"

"Rob…"

"Promise me, Wally. I have to get her back" he just looked at me for a couple seconds before saying

"Fine" Batman then called over

"Robin, we're ready when you are"

I walked over to the bed and jumped up saying

"Let's get this done" I was hooked up to a heart monitor just before Batman handed me the headset. He then said

"The helmet will instantly connect you to Wynonna's consciousness. That will allow you to experience whatever's going on in her head in real time. It's pretty brilliant actually" I smiled at him just as Kaldur said

"Remember, you have to get her to reject this fantasy herself" as I lied down, M'gann got into place behind Wynonna. She then muttered

"Come back to us, Wynonna. We need you" her eyes then went green as she set up the connection. Before I put the headset on I asked

"Is this going to work?" Batman looked down at me and said

"Honestly... I don't know" I slipped the headset on as he put his hand on my shoulder and said

"Good luck"

When I opened my eyes, I was standing in a large, royal looking corridor. The floor looks like marble and large stone pillars line the hall. Curious to see what outside looks like, I walked over to the window and was gobsmacked. The only time I've ever seen anything like this was when M'gann established the mind link between the team in Bialiya. This was Wynonna's memory

"Oh, my God. I'm on Patrovia" I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a door shut and footsteps heading my way.

Immediately I jumped behind one of the pillars and hid in the shadows. Two women, a man and little boy started walking this way. The older women spoke first

"Wynonna was a natural in court today. Tegan, you would've been so proud of your sister" The little boy smiled up at her. The older man then spoke

"I noticed your mother and I were not the only ones who came to watch you today, Wynonna" That's when I saw her clearly. Wynonna.

She was wearing a deep red figure hugging, floor length dress. With beaded long sleeves and a beaded bit around the middle. One of the sleeves had a piece of red fabric wrapped around it. Wynonna's red hair was down in loose curls and there were silver clips in her hair. She looked beautiful.

The older woman smiled and said

"Vladimir, seems like a very nice young man" Wynonna went to say something but the man spoke first

"Boy. And yes, I like him very much…" he laughed before continuing

"Clearly, Wynonna does, too, or she would not be spending so much of her free time with him" Wynonna shot a glare at the man and yelled

"Father!" Oh my god they are her parents. This may be harder than I first thought.

I kept my distance and followed them through the building. I followed them to what looked like a lounge type area. Wynonna was sitting on the coach with the little boy. When her parents had left the room, I emerged from the shadows

"Wynonna, Wynonna" she looked around and then shot to her feet, pulling her brother behind her. She then said

"Who are you?" I placed my hand on my chest and took a step forward saying

"It's me. Robin. Your friend" she backed away and said

"I know no one by the name of Robin"

"Wynonna, I'm here to help you. Your spirit was separated from your body. Zatara managed to bring it back but we haven't been able to wake you up. You're in a coma back on Earth" her face scrunched up as she questioned

"Earth?"

"It's where you've been for the past 10 years. I've come to take you home"

"I am home" all of a sudden pain ripped through my head and everything went black….

Wallys P. O. V

Dick has been under for a couple of hours now. It's nerve racking, we don't know what's happening in Wynonna's minds. I was snapped out of my thoughts when Artemis came over and asked

"What did he ask before he went under?" I went to answer but was cut off when the heart monitors began beeping uncontrollably. Batman jumped up and said

"We're losing him. Pull him out now!" Kaldur then started walking over to the control panel whilst saying

"I'm Sorry, Wynonna"

However before he reached it I ran in front of him and said

"I can't let you do that" Batman then growled

"West, Get out of his way!"

"If we pull him out now, we lose Wynonna! He just needs more time!" The monitors soon began to settle. Artemis then said

"I hope you're right about this Baywatch" I looked at Dick and said

"So do I"

Robins P.O.V.

When I came to, my head was pounding, my hands were cuffed together and I seemed to be in a courtroom. Wynonna was standing with her family at the front of the room, she refused to look at me. Her mother than started speaking

"The High Council has rendered our verdict on the alien spy. We impose the maximum penalty. Banishment to the Dark dimension" I took a couple of steps forward only to be restrained by a couple of men. I then spoke

"Nonna, if they take me away, you and I will be trapped here" I started fighting against the grips on my arms as her father said

"Do not listen to him. Once he is gone, we'll be happy. Like we were before he came here" still struggling I spoke again

"Why do you think they're trying to silence me? It's because they're afraid of what I have to say!" Wynonna finally looked at me as her mother said

"She's trying to confuse you with lies"

"No! I'm trying to remind you of the truth…" My voice started to break as I continued

"Life isn't perfect. I know it can be hard and it can be lonely. Especially for you. You have sacrificed and you have lost so much. I wish you could've had a life with your family. But even if you did, Nonna, it wouldn't be this. Because this isn't real. And deep down, Nonna. Deep down, you know it" the room shook slightly as I continued to speak
"I can't promise you a life without pain and loss because pain is a part of life. It's what makes us who we are. It is what makes you a hero"

I elbowed one of the men in the face and the other in the gut. As they released their grip i ran towards her only to be held back by her father

"You fight every day to keep people from struggling like you have. I know you can remember, please... If you try, please... Please try, Nonna. Because Earth needs Phoenix"

Wynonna's P.O.V.

"Phoenix" I remember that name. I took a step forward only to have Tegan clutch my arm and my father blocking me. Robin then continued

"Yes, remember that life. With M'gann and Connor and Kaldur and Artemis and Wally. Your friends need you. I need you" the room shook again and everyone stumbled slightly. But this time it didn't stop
"Wynonna, I can't choose this for you. You have to choose it yourself" His voice was on the verge of breaking.

One of the guards then punched him round the face. He fell to his knees and his sunglasses fell off. When he looked back up I had a pair of ocean blue eyes staring into my amber ones.

"Please come back to me, Nonna. Please" I looked around at my families faces before saying

"I wish... I want so much for all of this to be true. To stay here with you... But this isn't real"

I remember!

I stepped passed my father and went towards Robin but mother stood in the way

"No. No!" I looked right in her eyes as I said

"You taught me to be so strong. And I am. Thank you… Patrovia will be in my heart forever. But Robin is right...I have to go" The room shook more than it has before.

"I love you" I then hugged my mother

"Oh, Wynonna... We will never let you leave" I pulled away from her only to have all black eyes looking back. Once more the room shook but this time I fell over.

Feeling things begin to change, I reached out toward Robin

"Robin!" He reached out to grab my hand

"I got you" The tips of our fingers brushed as he said

"I got you….

Robins P.O.V.

My eyes shot open and I pushed the headset off immediately. I got control of my breathing as Batman said

"Robin, thank God" I Jumped off the bed and looked over at Wynonna. She was still unconscious. I then looked at Batman and yelled

"You pulled me out! How could you?" I then glared at Wally and Yelled

"I told you to stop him!" I took step towards him as he said

"I did" I then shoved him and yelled

"She was about to choose us! She was about to come home!" Batman pulled me back calling me

"Robin…" I pushed against him as I yelled

"Why did you pull me out?"

"Robin!"

"Why?" He look in my eyes and yelled back

"I didn't!" i stepped out of his grip as I said

"Then how did I come back?!" M'gann then spoke

"Because you did it. You did it. You did it. You convinced her!"

Everyone turned around and saw Wynonna beginning to wake up. M'gann and Artemis were at her side as she came around.

"Hey" As soon as she opened her eyes, she began to panic.

"Hey" she pushed the mask off her face and sat up. Artemis put a hand on her shoulder as she said

"Hey. Wynonna. It's okay, wait, wait. We're here. We're here" The look on her face was a mixture of confusion and sadness. She looked at Artemis and then at M'gann,who then said

"Hey, we're here. We're here. I got you" Batman then said

"You okay?" She didn't answer him. So I stepped forward and said

"Nonna, are you okay?" She looked at me for a moment before standing up from the bed and saying

"I'm fine. Thank you, Robin"

She's far from alright. I can just tell...
