Discovery

Artemis wasn't surprised by the good grade she had gotten on the biology assignment. As much as she'd hate to admit it, Wally did know his sciences. However, the drawings of him and their 'child' he had done on the back had gotten that attention of the TA, a Mister Dick Grayson, the same person KF had brought up at the end of her homework. She had erased the note, but she was sure that Dick knew about it and was planning something.

"Penny for your thoughts?" the freshman she had been thinking about asked. He was as much of a ninja, and a troll, as the Boy Wonder. Wait a second.

Artemis glared down at Dick, scheming. "A Wally West told me to ask about the time he painted your mentor's work vehicle pink. I'd love to hear about it." She leaned down. "Robin."

"What are you talking about, Arty?" She glared at him until a thought came to mind. Holding him down, she pulled out a pair of sunglasses she had grabbed from a 7/11 on the way to school. Holding it against his face, Artemis laughed.

"Good try, birdy. Tell me about KF painting the Batmobile pink." Dick's mouth opened up to protest her claims, but she glared at him and he shut his mouth.

"If I tell you, promise me you'll ask KF on a date later at the Cave. In front of the whole team."

Artemis stared at him for a couple seconds, deciding. "Fine. I've wanted to see how much of a 'Casanova' he really is." And if drawing himself on my paper was serious or not.

"Sure, Arty. I'll tell you on the way to the zeta." She watched as Dick Grayson slipped away into the loose crowds of Gotham Academy. If he's Robin then that means that Batman is… Artemis' jaw dropped from the realization. She now knew why she got that scholarship; it was so that she could be watched.

A bell rang and Artemis moved from the spot she had been standing. It was steak and potatoes day at lunch and she didn't want to get any of the well-cooked pieces. She also could use it to taunt Wally and see if she could get the story of how he knew whom Batman and Robin are.


Wally was sleeping in his science class. It was a lab day, but he had already done the experiment when he was ten years old and filling out the data was as simple as looking through one of the notebooks he still kept on his person at school. He was known to be a heavy sleeper, only waking for food. That was until his eyes opened, part of his body recognizing that he was receiving a message from someone. Opening his phone, he found the most amazing image ever. And then he realized it was Artemis' lunch.

'Good one Arty,' he sent back. One of the idiot football players walked up to him.

"Can you help me out, man?"

"Why would I do that?"

"I'll stop the others from picking on you." Wally raised an eyebrow. Ever since he became Kid Flash, he had changed from who he was to a false person, using clumsiness and his natural desire to learn to make himself less popular. Less friends, less chance of being discovered. It hurt, but it was for the best. He'd be able to open up more in college anyways, a transitional period where he'd become a second Flash for another city. Maybe something on the West Coast? San Francisco has a STAR Labs and really good Chinese.

"Sure. What do you need help with?" As he followed the kid to his station, his phone buzzed again.

'Least I can do, Baywatch. How did you figure out b+r?'

'Uncle took me to Gotham and we ran into each other. Freeze and Cold were having a play date of their own. It was fun being in the field with the Bats.'

"Who you texting, Wallman?" another football player asked. The third one snickered. He was unsure of how that nickname had stuck for so long, even if he used it himself.

"My ninja girlfriend. Her sister was that assassin who went after Luthor in Taipei." The football players stared at him as if he was crazy. In a way he was. Creating an electrical explosion in order to bathe in chemicals? That's considered crazy.

"Uh huh. And you're Kid Flash." Wally shrugged, trying to hold back a laugh. If only the monkeys knew. Maybe I should introduce Supey to them. I know he hates monkeys; maybe he'll hate them.

"So what do you need help with?"

"Dude. Just give us the answers. We know you still have them. How else would you be able to get away with not doing the lab?"

The phone buzzed. "Excuse me." He may not have many friends, but Wallace Rudolph West was still polite.

'Seems too simple, even for you, Kid Idiot. Still can't believe that I'm here on a batman scholarship.'

"Ok, I'm getting sick of this," a football player said. He reached out for the phone, but Wally pulled back, suppressing his speed as much as he could.

"Hey. If you want to talk with her, I'm sure I could get the money together to have her sister pay you a visit." They glared at him. "Fine! I have this cousin who's figured out who a number of superheroes are. She's in Gotham, so I gave her some hints for Robin. She also figured out who Batman is." They stared at him for a second before laughing. "I'm being serious here."

"Yeah, sure. Fuck you man. We'll ask someone else." Wally walked away, smiling.


Artemis was surprised that Bruce Wayne would let Dick Grayson walk with her through Gotham. Sure, they were Batman and Robin, but not many others knew that. "So, you want to know about Wally painting the Batmobile pink. You remember that incident with the Joker and Scarecrow fighting over which gas they were going to spread across Gotham?"

"Yeah. My dad was tempted to help Brucie take them down."

"Brucie?"

"Mom's nickname. She's still good friends with Talia."

Dick laughed. "But anyways, Bats calls in for a Leaguer to help out, one who could deal with gas clouds and a large city."

"So the Flash."

"Yeah. A couple months before Wally had his experiment where he recreated the 'Flash' experiment. I remember visiting him in the hospital and he gave me thumbs up."

"You knew him before he was Kid Flash?" Artemis asked. Dick nodded.

"When you're the ward of the Batman and the only other kid your age with super heroes are Roy and Wally, you don't have many choices."

"I understand why now. Must've been a difficult decision."

"Yeah, it was. But still. So both of them arrive and they decide to ground us in the Batcave. I'm all for slipping out, but Wally stumbles across a couple gallons of pink paint while searching for extra food." Dick grinned, remembering what happened next. "He poured them onto the Batmobile. He was that frustrated he had nothing to eat. It didn't help that Alfred arrived soon after with food."

"How bad was Wally's punishment?"

"Next time I saw him was a year later when Central City got a visit from Two Face." Artemis and Dick turned off of the street and into an alley. He put on sunglasses and opened up the zeta booth door. "Ladies first."

"Your town."

"You live here too. Do I need to tell Wally about those hearts you ended up drawing around your child?" Artemis glared at him and stepped inside.

"You tell him nothing, bird boy." Dick laughed as heard, "Recognized, Artemis, B-07."

"I may tell him, Arty. Or maybe I'll tell you about how he flirts with M'gann just to make you jealous."

"Recognized, Robin, B-01."


"So what did you name her?" That was Wally's first question. Not "how did you do?" or "what did he say?" Artemis didn't get that sort of luck. Instead he asks about their fictional daughter's name.

"Linda Jay West." She watched his face until he smiled.

"That's better than anything I'd think of." He paused. "I understand the 'West' and she's definitely a 'Linda', but where did you get 'Jay' from?"

Artemis blushed. "I…uh, asked Ollie what the name of the first Flash was." She grinned at him, sheepish.

"I'm sure Jay would be proud of that. A fictional grandchild."

"You could always make a real grandchild," a familiar voice said.

"Dick!"

A/N: I was going to end with Robin zetaing to the Cave, but I decided to add the last bit. Depending on the reaction, this may or may not be the end of the story.
