all I'm saying is that twilight is not that bad
Dick rolled his eyes at Honeybee's text and laughed, leaning back in his chair at the kitchen table.
To: Apis
dude, the werewolf fell in love with A BABY
From: Apis
So first of all, the situation was a lot more nuanced than that, and you KNOW IT. And second of all, I said not that bad, not "unproblematic" do I have to go over the rules of the imprinting thing again? We spent a whole patrol on this last year
"What's so funny?" Bruce asked, looking up from where he was reading a newspaper. Dick smiled and put down his phone, leaving it face up on the table in case Honeybee had one more text to send his way.
"Honeybee is defending Twilight again," Dick said easily. Bruce furrowed his brow and Dick rolled his eyes again, this time in frustration and not annoyance. Bruce had been mums the word on what exactly the big secret was that had turned Honeybee into not liking him anymore, and anytime the name was brought up, he went all silent and mysterious and it made Dick want to pull his hair out sometimes.
Surely, whatever it was, it could be fixed. Honeybee was just mad, and anger could be worked through. Dick could help if either would just tell him what the heck it was about.
"I forgot she was a fan of that," Bruce said evenly, turning back to his paper. Dick sighed and leaned his head in his palm.
"She talked about it on like, every patrol for a month, after she read the book," Dick said. "It was her whole personality for a while."
Bruce did not say anything in response, and Dick wanted to kick him in the shin. He would have if he was an actual child and not thirteen. This whole thing was Honeybee and Bruce was just ridiculous. He would not dare say anything to Honeybee, Honeybee was grieving, and he knew some of that anger towards him was that grief still trying to work itself out, but Bruce was an adult for God's sake. Could he not do anything to try and reach out to her?
"Have you tried talking to her, B?" Dick asked. Bruce looked up, surprised at such a blunt question, and then furrowed his brow. Alfred returned from where he had gone into the kitchen, wiping his hands on a towel. Bruce had for once actually returned to the manor for lunch, Alfred had promised to make chili today, and Dick was glad for his reentrance. Dick was sure the older man would certainly take his side if it came down to it.
"Of course, I have tried talking to her," Bruce said. Dick raised an eyebrow.
"I meant since the memorial," Dick said. Alfred folded the towel and set it on the table. His face was as diplomatic as ever.
"I take it you are discussing the issue of Miss Honeybee?" Alfred said. Dick nodded.
"It's gone on for like ever," Dick said. "She's on the Team now, maybe she's ready to listen if you actually were to talk to her."
Dick remembered the venomous way Honeybee had bit back that Batman was not the one holding her back from revealing her identity. Dick supposed maybe Honeybee might take some prodding to be willing to talk, but regardless, he thought maybe they were at a breaking point.
"She still refuses to talk to me," Bruce said. "I'd be willing if she would simply come to me directly."
Alfred was not one to roll his eyes openly, but Dick had come to know when he was doing so in spirit.
"Master Bruce, she is still a child," Alfred said. "One who is hurting, and one that needs you to be the one to make the first step. Especially given the situation we have found ourselves following the demise of Waspia."
Dick nodded his head. "Yeah, what Alfred said."
Bruce pinched the brow of his nose.
"Dick, there are parts of this you are not aware of," Bruce said. "And it complicates things in ways you are not aware of."
Dick tried to see what was so complicated, really, he did. But the part of him that still mourned for all those he had lost, still desperately wished to go back to his time before Robin and give all of it way to return to Haly's Circus and be with his parents, that part of him failed to see how. Dick never knew what exactly what Waspia and Honeybee's civilian relationship had been, but whatever it was, it was obviously one that was very close. Otherwise Waspia had never had let Honeybee out on the rooftops.
The screech Honeybee had made when Waspia had disappeared into the vines Poison Ivy was controlling and never came out, the crunch of bones as Waspia smacked the ground, and the mad dash Honeybee had made to reach her; all of it spoke of profound grief. Grief that Dick had felt before and if someone had not reached out to him and helped pick him up from that circus floor, would have consumed him whole.
Batman and Robin had been there, and no matter how they sliced it, they were involved. In the aftermath, Honeybee had disappeared for months and when she finally came back, the first thing Honeybee said when she saw him was that she was not working with Batman again. Batman had said something to her. True, Dick had not known what it was, but surely it could be fixed? Couldn't it?
"She's our friend," Dick said. "Is it really so complicated we can't talk to our friend?"
Bruce frowned, opened his mouth, once, twice, three times, and then he shook his head. Bruce's phone buzzed in his pocket and pulled it out. He checked it and then stood, giving them one final look.
"I have to go," Bruce said. "We'll – I'll talk to you about this later."
Bruce disappeared, murmuring a goodbye to Alfred on his way out, and Dick crossed his arms.
"You know what's this all about, don't you?" Dick asked Alfred. Alfred nodded and went to clear Bruce's plate. "I'm not surprised by that."
"Master Bruce is stubborn," Alfred said. "As are you, and as is Miss Honeybee from what I have seen. I doubt this will be the end to this conversation." Alfred's face shadowed with a pondering thought. "But something tells me, Master Dick, that what is happening will work it's self out soon."
Dick frowned. He hoped Alfred was right. If only for piece of mind's sake.
Dick's phone buzzed on the table.
From: Apis
And you can't say nothing about twilight when I know you watched every single fast and furious move in one setting.
Also my neighbor says you're wrong and you should feel wrong. He does not know what we're talking about but STILL
There's an ache in you
Put there by the ache in me
But if it's all the same to you
It's the same to me
CARIABBEAN SEA
JULY 22ND 2010 20:08 EST
Honeybee could feel the stare of Robin, and she fought the urge to turn around and tell him to stop. The boy hadn't turned away since Honeybee had arrived at the Cave, and the trend continued into when they loaded onto the Bioship. Honeybee knew exactly why he was staring, but she could not exactly tell him to stop right now without causing a big scene.
Honeybee, for the first time in months, had broken out her old suit. The one Batman had given her. Honeybee supposed she might as well wear it. Her make-shift suit was barely good enough for patrolling in Gotham – a covert mission to Santa Prisca was a different story, and it required something with a little more protection. It felt just like it did months ago when she tore it off, the suit melded to her skin, and the special lasso that came with it was burning a hole in her side, beckoning to be used for the first time in what seemed like forever.
No one else looked at her, because though the grapevine had informed Kid Flash and Aqualad about her refusal to wear the costume, they hadn't seen it. She had fallen off the grid and reappeared only two months ago, and neither of them had been able to make the trip before the Team formed. Robin, however, had seen her slinking around the Gotham skyline in her leotard.
Honeybee laid her hands on the control panel in front of her and grit her teeth. She had not wanted to make a big deal out of it. She was lucky that Robin (nor Batman) had commented on it during the mission briefing. Batman had only raised one brow and then turned away, and Robin had only stared, and the staring was getting old really fast.
Honeybee turned to look at the boy at her side, and she narrowed her eyes beneath her domino mask. The message, she hoped, was clear. Stop staring. It's annoying. Robin seemed to receive the message, as his cheeks reddened, and he turned to look straight ahead. Honeybee let out a breath and turned back to look at the dark expanse of ocean in front of them. If it weren't for her annoyance with the bird next to her and the mission awaiting in her future, she might have actually found it relaxing to look at.
Miss Martian dipped the ship beneath the clouds, and Honeybee could see the beginnings of Santa Prisca at the edge of her vision.
"Santa Prisca approaching," Miss Martian said from the pilot's chair. "Drop Zone A in thirty."
The Bioship kept descending until it was a safe enough distance above the water to fall without injury. Aqualad stood from his seat quietly and pressed the Atlantean symbol on his belt. In an instant, what was before a bright red shirt became a soft gray, perfect for stealth. Kid Flash and Aqualad had both had their suits upgraded by Batman with this tech before they left. Bright red shirts and bright yellow unitards are not exactly fit for stealth. Honeybee was glad that despite splashes of yellow, her suit was already mostly black.
A hole formed in the floor of the Bioship and Aqualad prepared to jump through it.
"Ready," he said. Miss Martian nodded and shifted the controls slightly.
"Putting the Bioship in camouflage mode," she said. Aqualad acknowledged Miss Martian with a barely noticeable nod. He stepped into the hole and disappeared into the waves beneath them. The hole closed and the Bioship slowed considerable as the Team waited for the all-clear from Aqualad.
"Heat and motion sensors are patched. Data is now on a continuous loop. Move in," Aqualad said, his voice filtering through the comn in their ears. Miss Martian did as instructed and flew the Bioship forward and over the island. She stood and the rest of the Team followed suit. Their chairs melted back into the floor and left no trace, as if they had never been there at all.
"Drop Zone B," the Martian continued. Cables dropped from above and Honeybee smiled to herself as she hooked the cable to her utility belt. Honeybee had truly missed having a utility belt, a real one and not the makeshift one she had hastily put together. Superboy and Miss Martian did not hook cables, but the excited forms of Kid Flash and Robin had done like Honeybee. Kid Flash touched the Flash insignia on his chest and his suit shifted to soft gray and black instead of sunshine yellow.
"How cool is this?!" Kid Flash said.
"Very impressive," Miss Martian said. Miss Martian shut her eyes and clenched her jaw in concentration. Her uniform shifted much like it did on the first day they met. This time, however, it was not just her shirt that changed color. Her blue skirt shifted into a pair of black pants to go with the black top she created.
"Uh, that works too," Kid Flash said after a minute. Honeybee scrunched her nose and looked at Miss Martian enviously.
"I wish I could do that," Honeybee said. "It would make shopping so much easier." Miss Martian giggled, and she could see Superboy roll his eyes in annoyance.
"Hey, Supey, not too late to put on the new stealth-tech!" Kid Flash continued. Superboy narrowed his eyes and pressed his lips into a stubborn, thin line.
"No capes, no tights," Superboy said. He looked over Honeybee and Robin with an unimpressed glance. "No offense."
More holes appeared on the floor of the ship and Honeybee took that as a sign the time for conversation was over. Honeybee checked her cable was connected securely and then sucked in a breath and jumped. Honeybee landed in a crouch beside her other teammates, and she was glad it was a forest and not an alley, as the damp ground was less hard beneath her feet than cement.
Honeybee felt a shadow overtake her form, and she rolled out of the way just as Superboy crashed into the ground. Unlike her gentle thud, Superboy landed with a boom and a crater that he crouched in the middle of. Superboy stood up in his crater and brushed dirt off of his shirt.
"Knew I didn't need a line," Superboy said. Robin scowled from where he had been thrown onto his back. Honeybee stood and walked over to her old friend. She crossed her arms in annoyance and gave Superboy a frustrated glare.
"And yet, creating a seismic event may not have helped as much with the covert!" Robin snapped. Honeybee reached out a hand to hoist him up, and Robin took it without even needing to look at her.
"Robin, be nice," Honeybee chastised in a whisper. Robin did not seem to hear her, his scowl deepening and crossing his arms.
"Aqualad, drop B is a go," Miss Martian said into her comn.
"Head to the factory," Aqualad said. "I'll track your GPS and rendezvous ASAP."
"Roger that." Robin turned his holo-glove on and the light blue screen lit up the forest clearing. Tracking dots appeared on the map he pulled up, each red dot representing where the Team members were in the forest. Honeybee could see that Aqulad was not too far off. Robin turned off his holo-map and took off into the forest wordlessly. Honeybee followed him just as silently. Kid Flash slowed himself, running at a natural human speed, and Superboy was at the back of the group. Miss Martian flew over them, providing a bit of cover if needed.
Superboy stopped suddenly. "Did you hear that?"
Honeybee turned to Superboy, tilting her head to the side.
"No," Honeybee answered.
"Do you think it's some kind of super hearing thing?" Kid Flash said. Miss Martian looked down at them, her gaze fixated on the young clone.
"You do have great ears," Miss Martian said. Honeybee could detect fondness and admiration in her voice, and Honeybee bit the inside of her cheek to keep from smiling. Miss Martian seemed to already be developing a crush on Superboy.
Kid Flash turned to where Honeybee was standing. "Okay Rob, now what –"
Honeybee sighed and looked at the empty space next to her, where before her friend had been standing.
"I hate it when he does that!" Kid Flash bemoaned. Honeybee shook her head. They really didn't know the half of it. Robin did a disappearing act in the middle of a stake-out the first time Batman and Waspia had let them team up, and she had nearly had a conniption trying to figure out what to do.
But that was years ago. And despite their months apart, Honeybee was pretty sure she still knew Robin well enough to figure out what Robin wanted them to do next. Honeybee looked up towards the tree and squinted her eyes, the trees were the only place he could be hiding at this point, and she saw a small shaking of leaves in a tree a stone throw's away.
"Hey guys –" Honeybee started, but Aqualad cut her off.
"Superboy, Kid Flash, switch to infrared. See if you are being tracked."
"On it," Kid Flash said. He slipped the googles on his head down in front of his eyes and the lens glowed red. "Got a squad of armed bozos incoming." Kid Flash stepped towards a small covering of bushes, and Superboy jogged forward to meet him.
"Two squads," Superboy said. "But they'll meet each other before they find us." Kid Flash leaned forward to get a better look and Honeybee put her hands on her hips.
"I think R—"
"Swing wide, stay clear!"
A gunshot fired and she growled. Honeybee stepped back and finally followed Robin up into the trees. She swung her lasso up to a tree branch and climbed. She stepped lithely onto the branchand unhooked her lasso from the wood. She squatted, making sure she was hidden in the trees. Honeybee looked over, and she could see Robin staring at her through the leaves.
"What took you so long?" Robin said.
"Little communicating would be nice, Birdie," Honeybee said. Robin stopped for a second, mouth forming a surprised 'O' before he turned away. She shook her head.
"Yeah, yeah," Kid Flash said below them, voice muffled through the foliage. "Just as soon as I find Rob – now Bee's gone too!"
Kid Flash zipped off, ignoring calls from Aqualad to stay put. Kid Flash, in too much of a rush, tripped on the ground and rolled down the hill in a series of thumps. He fell into a front slide and went straight down the muddy hillside. He stopped at the foot of one the goons in the squad. Honeybee sighed.
"Well that's just great," Honeybee said. Honeybee jumped between the tree limbs to reach the bottom of the hill Kid Flash was at, and she could see Superboy and Miss Martian heading down at a faster speed. Honeybee heard shifting behind her and knew Robin was following, and she could also hear gunfire resuming below.
She landed in a near tree and took one millisecond to take in the scene below her. Superboy was engaged in a tussle with one of the men, gunfire abandoned as they tried to bring the other to the ground. Kid Flash zipped between shots fired his way and taking cover behind trees, while Miss Martian blocked gunfire with her telekinesis. Honeybee saw where a man was sneaking up behind the Martian and she snarled and jumped out.
She aimed a kick at the man's gun, and it fell to the ground with a clatter. The gunman looked at her in shock and Honeybee used that to her advantage. She landed on the ground in front of him and smirked, sending a roundhouse kick to his face. He fell to the ground and Honeybee turned at the sound of another goon headed her way.
"What is wrong with you guys?" Robin said from the edge of the clearing. He had jumped out right after her, aiming for two lone gunman, and was engaging them as he spoke. "What didn't you follow my lead? Vanish into the jungle!"
Honeybee dodged a punch the goon coming towards her leveled, and she caught the second one in her palm. She twisted his arm and he grimaced in pain, and she reached forward and kicked him in the chest, and he fell back in a motionless heap.
"That's what you two were doing?!" Kid Flash said. Kid Flash reached out and flipped one of the men over his shoulder, sending him back into a tree. "Way to fill us in! We're not mind readers you know!" Miss Martian pushed two men telepathically into the trunk of a tree behind Kid Flash, and Kid Flash corrected himself. "Well, most of us."
Miss Martian looked at the exchange in confusion.
"I thought you guys said I could only read the bad guy's minds?"
A man stood, regaining consciousness, and attempted to run through the mud, creating a loud noise of splashing and sloshing. If not for the fact he was trying to kill her moments before, Honeybee might have compared it to the sound Jason made when he was determined to make a muddy mess on a sidewalk during a rainy Gotham day. Honeybee reached for her lasso, but there was no need, as Aqualad appeared from the trees. Aqualad firmly set his hand on the man's chest and before the man could blink, electricity flickered around his body and knocked him out, and he fall back to the ground.
"Let us tie them up, and derive a plan of action," Aqualad instructed. Honeybee nodded and picked up the guy she just knocked out by the collar and dragged him to the center of the clearing. The others did likewise with the other goons, except for Miss Martian who moved them telepathically. Honeybee and Robin produced some rope from their utility belt and set about tying them, while Aqualad looked on, face pulled tight in concentration.
Robin fisted one of the men's scarlet robes in his hands, and Honeybee narrowed her eyes at the symbols and colors of the uniform.
"Isn't that uniform for the Cult of the Kobra?" Honeybee asked. Robin nodded and stood.
"The question is, why are they here on Santa Prisca?" Robin said. Aqualad stepped forward and critically glanced over the disposed men.
"I am sure Batman would have informed us if he knew a dangerous criminal was running Santa Prisca's Venom operation," Aqualad said. Honeybee rolled her eyes and stepped away.
"I wouldn't hold your breath on that," Honeybee said. Robin glared at her.
"Not the time, Bee," Robin said, and Honeybee let it go. Now was not the time to fight with them over Batman's role in what happened to Waspia, or the secrets that came out because of it. Not mid-mission, when there was very real, physical dangers before them.
"Clearly there's no love lost between the goons and the Cultists though," Honeybee said. Robin dropped his glare and turned away, accepting she was prepared to drop the conversation for now.
"I'm willing to bet that they came in and tossed them out because of it," Robin said. Aqualad puts his hands on his hips and recognition painted his features.
"That would explain why normal supply routes have been cut off," Aqualad concluded. Kid Flash stepped forward now, crossing his arms.
"Okay, so we get it," Kid Flash said. "Kobra wants super cultists. Mystery solved. Now let's radio Bats and we'll be home in time for –"
"No," Robin said, cutting him off. Honeybee sighed dramatically and looked up at the sky. "These Cultists aren't using Kobra venom, they're hoarding it. And we're not leaving, not until I found out why."
"Just when I thought it was going to be an easy mission," Honeybee mumbled under her breath. She walked over towards Superboy. A fight was ensured to happen between Kid Flash and Robin over that, but Honeybee had worked with Robin long enough to know he was just stubborn enough to win it. No matter what, they were not going home any time soon.
"Until you know why?" Kid Flash asked incredulously.
"This Team needs a leader!" Robin said.
"And it's you?" Kid Flash said. "Dude, you're a thirteen-year-old that ducked out on us without a word!"
"And you're a mature fifteen?" Robin countered."Besides, Honeybee managed to figure out what I was trying to get you guys to do, and she did it without blowing cover, like you did at the first chance you got!"
"Yeah well…" Kid Flash said. He rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly but then dropped it as he had another thought. "You don't even have superpowers!"
"Really feeling the love, KF," Honeybee said. Kid Flash and Robin did not seem to hear her, but Miss Martian did give a laugh and Honeybee swore she saw Superboy's lips twitch into a ghost of a smile.
"Neither does Batman!" Robin said. Kid Flash rolled his eyes.
"And you're not Batman!"
"Do you either of you want to be leader?" Miss Martian asked, looking between Superboy and Honeybee. Superboy shook his head and crossed his arms.
"No way," Superboy said. He returns a look to Miss Martian. "What about you?"
"After the Mister Twister fiasco?" Miss Martian said. Superboy smiled just a little and gave Miss Martian a look bordering on fond.
"You did alright," Superboy said. Miss Martian's cheeks colored pink and she tucked a hair behind her ear nervously. Honeybee noted it seemed that Superboy had taken her advice to go a little easier on Miss Martian. She was glad. Both were new to this and could use a friend or two.
Miss Martian shook her head and looked back to Honeybee.
"What about you Honeybee?" Miss Martian asked. Honeybee scoffed and crossed her arms.
"I'll be leader the same day pigs fly," Honeybee said. Miss Martian pursed her lips in confusion. "Pigs don't fly. It's an expression, meaning it's unlikely."
"Oh," Miss Martian said. Superboy turned away from them, seeming to hear something, and Honeybee returned back to where Kid Flash and Robin were still fighting. Aqualad sighed and stepped forward to break them up. He reached out a hand diplomatically on each of the boy's shoulder and opened his mouth to say something but was cut off by a sound from the men that were tied up.
Honeybee narrowed her eyes at the man, none other than Bane, and it put a nasty taste in her mouth to see him here. Bane was no stranger to Gotham, and she knew he could be tricky at times. If he did decide to be tricky, then this long night could turn even longer. Bane laughed and leveled a gaze on Kid Flash and Robin.
"Such clever, niños," Bane said. "But you only know half the story. Let me show you the rest, get you into the factory, via my secret entrance."
Honeybee put her hands akimbo. "And why should we believe that?"
Miss Martian kneeled in front of him and narrowed her eyes.
"There is a secret entrance," she said after a moment. "But he's also hiding something."
"Ah, ah, chica. Bane is not that easy," Bane said. He smirked tauntingly.
"He's mentally reciting fútbol scroes," Miss Martian said. She gave an annoyed frown. "In Español. This could take a while." Bane laned forward in his binds and shrugged the best he could.
"It's really not that complicated. The enemy of my enemy if my friend."
Miss Martian stands. Honeybee shared a look with Robin, and she could see from the creases by his eyes he was thinking the same thing as her. That if they were going to get the full story, then Bane might be their only option. And this might be their only chance to get this intel, given the ruckus they had out here might have already blown their cover. Silence prevailed over the group for a long moment, but quietly they all seemed to come to agreement that this was the best course of action.
Aqualad stepped forward, arms crossed behind his back placatingly, but his eyes narrowed angrily.
"Show us."
You can run but only so far
I escaped it too
Remember how you watched me leave
But if it's okay with you
It's okay with me
Chapter Bible Verse:
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." – Matthew 5:3
Life has been very rough the past two weeks, I am not going to lie, so that's why it took two weeks to get another chapter out. But I am excited to return to Honeybee/Betty! Drop-Zone will be split into two chapters like Happy Harbor, and I think for right now this will be the format of episodes. A few might be shorter or longer depending on the content, but that's the way we're headed right now.
And Drop-Zone is not one of my favorite episodes, as it was fairly clear to me from the first episode Aqualad was going to be leader, so it felt tedious in some respects even if we did get some character establishment and development for members of the Team. I'm sorry if these chapters come off as boring as a result, as I am giving it as much effort as every other chapter, but there's really not as much to work with in my opinion.
Also, I'm very Southern, so I can not tell you how many times this chapter I had to go back and change "y'all" to "you". So if y'all see a "y'all" slipped in the dialogue, I'm sorry.
The first part of the chapter might seem a little disconnected, but it will be important for the episodes and chapters that follow, as Betty & Dick and Honeybee & Robin have very different relationships that will be explored as we progress. I just did not want to suddenly drop in that relationship later and have it come out of nowhere. More depth will be explored in the future with it.
I hope you guys enjoyed this, and I'll see y'all soon! Have a blessed day!
Review Replies:
MsRosePetal: Not much Robin and Honeybee unfortunately. There was an earlier version of this chapter that was uploaded that I took down that Betty and Dick interacting, but after some constructive criticism I decided to change it because it was kind of a plot hole as they pointed out. But! I hope you enjoyed this chapter regardless! As far as identities go, Batman has not imposed the rule of keeping her secret identity as secret as she has. That was Waspia's rule. The Batfamily dynamic has not really been set up yet. That will come later, but I feel like Batman is still at a place where he really only has the League and Robin has back-up. Waspia knew who Batman was, and by deduction knew who Robin was, and vice versa because of the League connection, but Honeybee was kept under strict rule to keep it secret. Waspia and Honeybee's civilian relationship will be clearly defined after Drop-Zone, which will allow the identity thing to go more in-depth. And her and Robin will have more moments, but for now that may take a backseat as she spends more times with other members of the Team. Thank you for leaving a review! Have a blessed day!
Annie (Guest): I know you are a guest, so I am unsure if your old review is still up, but I felt the need to reply to your first review on the old chapter. I took your criticism and realized that that scene was not exactly in-line with what I had done previously, so I decided to replace it with the scene with D*** and Bruce in the new version. You were correct in that it was setting up a possible plot hole, so I need to introduce this element later in a different way. I thank you for pointing it out, as I think it will make the story stronger in the long run. Thank you for review. And I'm glad you like Honeybee! I always knew she was not going to go to Cadmus, as I have seen so many different versions of that done with OCs paired with everyone, and I doubted I could add something new. Waspia was a League member and they extended an invite to Honeybee because of that, but it just did not feel right for her as a character to go. And thank you for saying you like my writing. It means a lot. Thank you again for your constructive criticism, as receiving I think will make the story better, especially once we get into when they start going to school. Have a blessed day!
