3v3ry1luvsm3- I'm sad to say that this will be my last new story on FF-net, because I'm getting tired of all their shit, so once all my stories are complete, I will be leaving- and NO, none of my stories will be deleted.

However! Since Jaiyden (and now baby Lisa:) will be somewhere in their twenties when this story ends, I will make Robin get Zee pregnant. Same with Kaldur and Rocket. Though, I must warn you, it won't be as detailed as Artemis's pregnancy, and it won't be for another few chapters.

Yondaimeslegacy- I'm glad you like her name. I like it, too. Yes, the part about Jai shitting himself was hilarious! :D

Viet girl14- Thanks. It's one of my favorite parts, as well.

Jazbez- Hahaha! I know right! I loved the face you made! 0.o It was hilarious. And yes. That was one HELL of a spoiler! :)

Sirens in the water- No comment. No comment. No comment.

Namtab- Yup. Yup. Yup. :)

Mysterygirl97- You're right. There aren't a lot of those stories. I think I've read one where Raquel has a baby. Not sure about Zatanna. There's been mentions of her being pregnant, but nothing extremely detailed.

OmegaFoxy- The fourth wall! I forgot about the fourth wall! Lmfao! :D

Blackirishawk- Yes way! :p

Music lover bwg- Artemis said "Mom" in Vietnamese. When I put bold-italicized words between "." it means they are translations for Vietnamese words. The English translations are written in the order the Vietnamese words/sayings were written in the story.


The Team just stood there, in shock. Jaiyden and Lisa get married?

While they were all in disbelief, Artemis remembered something Bart had said a few weeks after she found out that she was pregnant with Jaiyden.

'The baby and their spouse raise me...'

Her and Wally's son and Conner and M'gann's daughter raise Bart. They raise him and their kids... They disappeared. They might have abandoned him...

"What do you mean 'She marries Jaiyden'?" Conner asked, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"You know what married is! You know- 'Dun! Dun! Da dun! Dun! Dun! Da dun!' Walking your daughter down the aisle, "I do's"- Heck. They even popped out a couple kids!... Oops... Spoilers..." Bart winced.

"She raises you..." Wally said, also remembering what Bart had told him, Artemis, Barry, and Iris.

Bart nodded. "She and Jaiyden raised me for almost five years. Their oldest kid was one of my closest friends." Bart explained.

"You said 'was'. What did you mean by that?" M'gann asked.

"I went for a run- maybe five or six months before I came to this time- and when I came back home, they were gone. Just disappeared. All of them- Jai, Lisa, Amy, and Elliot- gone! I haven't seen or heard from them since..." He frowned.

No one knew how to respond.

"If you think my childhood sucked, you guys are waaaay off. Mine was amazing compared to Janelle's!" Bart said. But then his eyes went wide, and his face paled.

He hadn't meant to tell them about Janelle...

"Who's Janelle?" Artemis asked.

"No one!" He cried, running off. Or atleast he tried to. Dick and Kaldur grabbed him and held him down. "Answer us." Kaldur ordered.

"Who's Janelle?" Dick repeated.

"My girlfriend! Janelle's my girlfriend!" He cried out.


Over the next few days, Bart avoided the original Team.

He hadn't meant to tell them about Janelle. He shouldn't have said anything! About anyone! He should've just told them what college Lisa goes to! Not who she spent the rest of her life with...

He missed Janelle. He missed her so much. He should've never left their time without her.

She would never forgive him...

"You sure you don't want to talk about Janelle?" Artemis sighed, standing in the doorway of Bart's bedroom. "She's amazing, and beautiful, and funny, and smart. And she can kick your ass in less then eight seconds." Bart smirked.

"You got any pictures of her?" She asked, sitting on the bed next to Bart. "Yeah." He nodded. He climbed off the bed, and grabbed a small envelope from under the bed.

"Janelle liked hanging out in the rustic, run-down, abandon parts of town. They reminded her of home. Anyway, we found one of those photo booths- the ones at malls, you know? Anyway, she fixed it all up and we took some pics." Bart explained.

He handed her the photos, and Artemis stared at the girl, amazed at her appearance.

Long, snow white hair, her bangs covering her right eye, her left eye being a bright vibrant blue color, thick black eyeliner surrounding it. Her skin was a stark white color, and she wore a long sleeved, mid-thigh length black dress- the skirt of the dress was a mesh type material. She also had black fingerless gloves on her hands.

"You're right; she is beautiful." Artemis commented, handing Bart back the photos.

"Thanks. But she'll kill me if we ever see eachother again..." Bart groaned. "Why?" Artemis asked. Bart looked at her with sad eyes.

"She probably thinks that I abandoned her. But I didn't! I love her too much to do that! I need to make sure her future- our future- doesn't suck ass!" Bart cried.

Love? Bart was in love... And he had to leave her behind...

"Please explain. How bad was her childhood? It couldn't have been as bad as yours or mine..." Artemis sad softly, putting her hand on Bart's shoulder.

"Her mom died when she was six... She died giving birth to her brother, Charlie. Charlie, sadly, was... He was still-born. Her Dad got his throat slit three years later- almost to the day...!" First Bart told her about her parents, then he moved on to the rest of her immediate family.

"Her older sisters- they're 18 and 21 years older then her, neither her nor Charlie were planned- both disappeared about six weeks before Lisa and Jaiyden did. No one knows what happened to them. Her only family left, her Uncle- her Mother's younger brother- died three months after Lisa and Jaiyden disappeared." Bart finished, near tears.

He didn't like talking about the deaths or disaperences of people he loved and cared about.

Artemis was appalled.

"Janelle always said she'd give up her first born to know what happened to her sisters..." The future speedster sighed.

"How old is she?" Artemis mumbled.

"Sixteen. Same as me... The future is horrible, Artemis! Not just for me and Nelle- but for everyone! Everything and everyone is either dead or dying! Hopefully... Me being here and changing certain things... Fixed it all..." Bart cried.

"Certain things? Bartholomew Allen... What. have. you. done?" Artemis demanded, trying to keep her voice calm.

"I... I saved Grandpa... I saved Grandpa from entering the speed-force..."


Artemis never mentioned her conversation with Bart about the future- to anybody. Not even Wally.

She had more important things to do; it was Jaiyden's first Christmas in less then five days.

"You excited?" Wally asked, putting Jai in the buggy, as he and Artemis shopped for presents for Jai and the rest of their family. "Yes. And nervous. Soon he'll be one. Then the next thing we'll know, he's in kindergarten." Artemis sighed, ruffling her sons golden locks.

"What, you wish he'd stay time and helpless forever?" He questioned, raising an eyebrow at his fiancé.

"No. I just don't want him to grow up so fast!" She frowned.

"Dear God... Motherhood has changed you! I just didn't believe it until now!" Wally joked, fake gasping.

"Oh shut up, Baywatch!" Artemis snapped, punching him in the shoulder blade. Hard.

"Oww...!" He whimpered.


This chapter was very... Bart and Artemis centered...

And yes, I do strongly believe that Bart left a girl he cared deeply about back in his own time. I will talk more about Janelle and the Future.

Whether I decided to have Bart tell anyone else about the Future, or write about him trying to change it, is undecided.

If I do decide to go with that, I won't be very descriptive...

This chapyer was short...
