In Star City in the dark of night a raven haired, green eyed girl in a black tank top and black shirt shorts with sulks and cross bones all over it, a present from Hades, was running down the street. This was Persephone Kent or Percy more rather. Earlier her mother, Dianna, had sent Percy to Star because of something Dianna wouldn't say.
Percy was scared out of her mind. This had never happened to her before. She usually knew what was happening around her. Especially when she was aloud to join in on League meetings. And to go on some of their missions.
Soon a person in a red suit with mustard yellow boots, gloves and hat with a red feather in it jumped in front of Percy. The red and yellow Robin Hood scared her some. She was usually the one to jump in front of people. And she loved scaring her enemies.

As a son of Apollo, Roy has a few advantages. Like the natural ability for archery, healing himself and other people quickly, singing and sometimes being glow-in-the-dark. During his time at camp, Roy learned a lot from his siblings who have been there way longer then he has.
And Roy helped them with their confidence and self esteem. Because Chiron doesn't really want to send Apollo kids out on quests because the camp needs healers. But the centaur soon came to the understanding that Roy was not a normal Apollo kid because he was a grandson of Ares. And that he was what the mortals call a combat medic.
Which means, that Roy could fight in a battle while healing another demigod so they could get up and fight again. The other Apollo kids were just basic military doctors who could break every bone in your body.
Roy laughed so hard he almost cried when he heard his elder brother Lee Fletcher use that as a threat against Clarisse La Rue a daughter of Ares one day. It was the happiest moment of his young life.
And right Roy was on rooftops as speedy when he saw something, no someone, running down the dark, barely lite streets of his hometown. At closer inspection he realized that it was his friend Percy. Percy looked to be in destress. He jumped down to see what was wrong. It broke his heart to see her like this.
..
..
Percy looked to the person in front of her. He slowly took off his mask and hat. It was Roy.
"Roy." Percy said breathless tone
She ran into the other demigods arms. This made Roy worry and the fear inside of him grow.
"Percy what's wrong?" Roy asked
Breathing became a little harder for Percy. Like she was drowning on air.
"I don't know. One minute I was asleep in my bed and the next I was being woken up by my mother saying that I needed to leave town immediately. I wasn't thinking about where I was going." Percy said
"Where are Bianca and Nico?" Roy asked in a panic
He needed to know just in case he and Oliver had to go to metropolis to do some recon or something. He needed to make sure it wasn't a monster who was after his best friends little cousins. Or her parents being mind controlled, that would make Oliver break out the kryptonite arrows out.
Every member of the justice league has some kryptonite on hand just incase they have to use it for something. Like a rogue Kryponian running loose.
"They're over at Jason's place across town. I was supposed to go there in the morning after I gotten because I had something for school to do that ran later then scheduled." Percy said
By the end, Percy's face was pale and there were tears streaming down her cheeks. Roy pulled the girl into a hug and sat the daughter of Poseidon down. He didn't care that his friend was crying into his chest. He didn't care that his uniform was getting tear stained.
Roy just wanted the only girl who he considered to be a sister from the start and outside of the Apollo cabin to feel better. Percy soon passed out in the archers arms. Over the com system, Roy told Oliver that he was dropping Percy off at Jason's place.
Roy tapped on the window. It was opened by Jason. Roy quietly walked in and set the daughter of Poseidon on the couch. Roy quickly said goodbye and left to do the rest of his patrol.
..
..
The next morning Percy woke up on a couch. Not really knowing how she got there. The last thing she remembered was talking to Roy and crying on him. Percy saw Jason was hovering over her.
He was using power of flight to do this. He was smiling one of those charming smiles that every male demigod that Percy had met has.
"Good morning sleeping beauty." Jason said smartly
Jason thought it was a joke that would be answered with a insult of some kind. That it would be answered with a snide remark that she learned from Ares. Some kind of comment that she learned from Billy ad would get a laugh from Bianca and Nico.
But that didn't happen. Percy smiled when an idea formed in that dirty little mind of hers. She decided to joke with her cousin back. A joke that became old as dirt to the children of Hades.
"Awe, Aphrodite. I thought I told you not to impersonate anybody else. Hephaestus and Uncle Ares will get jealous of us if you keep doing this." Percy whined with this creepy little Joker/Harley Quinn style smile on her face
Bianca and Nico groaned when they heard this coming out of Percy's mouth. They were tired of this joke. They wanted something new from their elder cousin.
"What the-" Jason stuttered
He was confused on what his cousin just said to him.
"Lately she's been doing this whenever someone is hovering over her when she wakes." Nico said from the table as he ate some chocolate lucky charms cereal with basically a cup of extra sugar on top for extra sweetness
"Yeah. Clark and Dianna are getting annoyed with it." Bianca said as she ate her special K chocolate and strawberry cereal mix that she had brought over with her
Percy sat up and stretched. She looked around the apartment to see if there are any other signs of life. But Beryl was nowhere to be seen.
"Mom went to work." Jason said noticing what his cousin was doing
"Okay." Percy said nodding
Percy knew exactly what Beryl Grace did at Queen Consolidated. Oliver kept Percy in the loop about the things that were done in QC just in case she needed to take over if he ever went missing or was incapacitated.
Bruce did the exactly the same thing with him and Wayne Enterprises. But Bruce was also training up Dick as well. Saying the more people he trusted with this information, the better. The only other person who had this information for WE, other then Dick and Percy, was Alfred.

After Percy had eaten her breakfast and gotten dressed, she walked, or flew, over to Queen manor. She needed to talk to Roy. He was supposed to tell her when he became Speedy. She was upset that he didn't give her a heads up about this.
Percy knocked on the door when she walked up. A couple of minutes later, Dinah opened the door for the brunette. Dinah knew why her niece was there and quickly usurer Percy into the house.
"I told him to tell you." Dinah said
"It's like he doesn't want the protection magic the league has." Percy complained
When the league was formed, Dianna placed a protection spell on everyone. And she puts it on all of the new comers as well. It was now Percy's job to put the spell on all of the heroes sidekicks.
She's already gotten Dick and Wally spelled up. She just needs to put the spell on Roy Harper. The elusive son of Apollo, legacy of Ares. Percy doesn't know who her brothers sidekick is just yet. He never told her any names.
Percy also put the spell on Thalia, Jason, Bianca and Nico. Said something about protecting the children of the big three. And that she didn't want to loose any of them on her watch. Or again in Thalia's case.
"Roy is in his room sleeping." Dinah said
Percy knew Queen manor like the back of her hand. She practically grew up in both Wayne and Queen manors to make it feel like they are her homes. And they were, to an extent.
Percy ran up to Roy's room. Once there, the daughter of Poseidon quietly creeped into the room like Dinah had taught her. Percy walked quietly to the bed where her friend was sleeping in only his underwear.
The spell was in a language more ancient then Ancient Greek. Dianna had said, when she taught the spell to her daughter, that she learned it from Lord Chaos himself.
"I protect thee with my life. Chaos protect thee with all your power. I protect thee with my life. Chaos protect thee with all your power." Percy chanted
The spell was complete. Percy soon left the room. When the brunette entered the dining room, she found not only Dinah like she was expecting, but Oliver as well.
"It's done." Percy said with a smile
She was happy with her work.
