P.S. sorry for the grammar of this chapter i only proof read like once

Artemis battled through the rain and wind determinedly, everyone else was at the cave watching movies but she needed some time on her own to think, so she had gone out running.

After enduring the harsh conditions for around 20 minutes or so she detoured from the trail on to a smaller one on her left. It seemed to have only been used a few times but the archer looked as though she knew where she was going. A few moments later the trail took her out of the forest and onto a grassy bank which overlooked the ocean. The area seemed to be protected from the wind and she could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Artemis sat down on the hill and looked out over the ocean.

Back at the cave everyone was enthralled by the Tv screen, well almost everyone. Robin was worried about Artemis, which was fair enough because she had run out into the forest in what was almost torrential weather. Robin, however was the only one to see it and therefore felt responsible. It was apparent to the whole team that Kid Flash's heroic act had rattled Artemis, but Robin and Zatanna had a hunch that the effect may have been different to what everyone thought.

After taking the time to reflect, Artemis was now convinced that she had regained control over her emotions. She turned to head back to the mountain, only to realize that the sun had already set and it was dark. "perfect" she thought to herself. Using only the moonlight and her knowledge of the forest trails, Artemis managed to find her way back to the cave.

She arrived back at the mountain well after 12:00AM, but before going to bed there was something she had to do. Artemis bypassed the lounge, walked down the hallway and stopped at a room she previously hoped she would never have to. She knocked quietly. Wally groaned, "Robin how many times do I have to tell you, I don't want to hear your conspiracy theories in the middle of the night!" He opened the door and saw Artemis standing there with wet, messy hair and in drenched clothes, "oh… Artemis… It's you"

Artemis took a deep breath, "Look, thanks for saving my life or whatever"

Wally was dumbstruck, "ahhh… you're welcome"

Artemis replied, "okay, well bye then"

"yeah, bye", wally said.

Artemis knew it wasn't pretty, but she had done it nonetheless. She then grabbed some clothes from her room and went to the bathroom for a shower.

Wally on the other hand had closed the door behind Artemis and couldn't stop smiling.

If there was one thing Wally loved, it was the scent of freshly cooked Bacon and Eggs in the morning. He jumped out of bed, threw on some sweat pants, a Flash T-shirt and strolled down the hallway ready to test the limits of his stomach. The rest of the team were already gathered around the main dining table with M'gann hovering plates of food over to it from the kitchen.

Wally was about to sit down, "Yes let's get this going, I'm starving!" But little did he know Robin and Zatanna had something planned. Robin approached him, "Hey Wally I think Artemis is in the forest shooting some arrows, can you go get her? You know, being the fastest one of us and all." Wally wasn't going to argue with that logic, "Yeah sure Rob, you better leave me some food though" he joked as he walked towards the cave's backdoor. The speedster continued to walk out the door assuming Artemis wouldn't be too far away.

Although the sun was up, it was a crisp morning. Wally wandered through the forest around mount justice looking for Artemis. He was starting to regret not asking robin specifically where she was. He tried to remember which direction Artemis walked in all those times she went out the backdoor. now that he thought about it, he realised that she came out here a lot. A few minutes later Wally saw a clearing in the distance and could hear the sound of Arrows being released.

Once at the clearing, Wally was amazed to see a whole archery range setup, how did he never know this was here? Artemis was standing on the same side as wally, aiming at one of the targets which were on the opposite side. Wally walked to his left to approach her, but rather than opening with one of his usual snarky comments he simply said "Hey Artemis, we're all having breakfast now if you wanna come eat?"

Artemis turned to wally, not even startled that he was now there, "I guess" she replied.

Wally watched as Artemis put her arrows in her quiver, and then threw it over her shoulder. The two walked back to the cave in silence.

When they came through the cave backdoor together Zatanna shot Robin a look with wide eyes and eyebrows raised.

Wally again sat down to eat, "yes, finally" he said, only to be interrupted by Batman who had just entered the dining area.

"Team, I trust you have enjoyed your time off but it's time for your next mission, everyone to the mission room now."

Wally scrunched up his face "aww man when can a guy get the chance to eat around here?"

Everyone followed Batman into the mission room where Black Canary was already waiting and he started "Recently there have been several disappearances on an island resort off the coast of Florida", "you will investigate the Island". "Black Canary will give you the full run down now." Batman walked out and Black canary took his place in front of the team.

"Yes, as Batman said you will be travelling to Tivoli island to investigate these disappearances." "Your instructions are to act as guests as to not raise suspicion, so pack everything you would for a regular …holiday." "I'm sure you're all thinking the same thing and yes this mission has been purposely chosen to aid in your mental recovery from the last mission, however if you do find the reason behind these disappearances you have permission to engage." "you leave first thing tomorrow morning so get packing."

As soon as Black Canary left the mission room Wally and Robin rejoiced, "dude, Tivoli island!" Wally said. Robin replied with the same enthusiasm, "I know! Tivoli island has the biggest water park in the northern hemisphere!" Wally's eyes lit up, "We gotta pack Man, this is gonna be so epic."

Wally and Robin raced to their rooms to pack in a matter of seconds. The rest of the team watched the whole thing happen in amazement.
