Rebel Justice
Meet the Team
Robin sat in the cafeteria, eating his sandwich, watching Wally devour a buffet of food. He had several questions, but the speedster hadn't come up for air yet so that he could ask.
He sat for several minutes before Wally was done. "So, are you going to tell me what's going on or not?"
"I guess, but Red Arrow would be better at explaining it than me."
"Who's Red Arrow?"
"He's-"
Suddenly a siren went off. A voice came on over the intercom, "All Rebel Justice members should meet in the mission room. Be dressed for combat."
Wally rolled his eyes. "He's so melodramatic. Give me a few seconds to get dressed, then I'll take you down."
He disappeared, leaving Robin by himself. Seconds later, he returned. He was wearing a suit that looked like his old one, but was black and had white lightning bolts going down the sides.
"Everyone goes by their superhero name when they're in costume, so call me Lightspeed."
Inside were eight people, four male, four female. They were all in their mid-teens. Robin had an eerie feeling that he knew them, but he couldn't. He didn't know anyone around his age.
"Robin, I'd like you to meet the Rebel Justice team," Wally said.
The team stood in a line, they came up to him one by one. The first was a girl. Her skin was white as snow, but she had freckles and red hair.
"Robin! It's so good to see you again!"
The strange girl hugged him. He looked up at her, confused.
"Hello, Megan. You wouldn't remember me like this."
Her skin changed color to green. Suddenly it hit him. It was M'gann. She had disappeared after the white martian fiasco. She was wearing all black, with a black cloak instead of the blue one. She still had the red X across her chest, though.
"M'gann? What are you doing here?"
"Actually, I go by Ghost now, but I'll let Red Arrow explain. He's the one who brought us all here."
Next, a guy who looked like Superman came up.
"Connor? Is it really you?"
"Yep. We missed you Rob. And I go by Powerboy now."
All that had changed about his costume was that the shirt was better padded, and had a slightly different symbol on it.
Then a blonde archer he remembered all too well came up. She was wearing the same style of costume, but it was orange and black, like a tiger.
"Hey Robbie. Haven't seen ya in a while. Call me Tigress."
They hugged, and the next person came up. He was blonde, with dark skin, and obviously Atlantean.
"Nice to see ya Kaldur," said Robin.
"It is Tempest. And I must agree, it is very nice to see you as well."
Then a younger girl, one about his age came up.
"Hi there Robin. You probably don't remember me, I only met you once before things went wonky and I left."
She was dressed in purple and white, like a medieval magician. He couldn't really place her, unless…
"Zatanna?"
She beamed at him, and he felt butterflies in his stomach. "I go by Sorceress now, but whatever."
She left and up came the last girl, one he was sure he had never met. She was black, and had a kind of renegade punk look about her.
"Hi, I'm Rocket. Nice to meet ya Bird Boy."
Finally, the last two boys came up. They both looked the same, only one was younger than the other.
"Speedy? And what's with the twin?"
The younger guy stepped forward. "I'm Arsenal, and I'm the original Speedy. The other guy's a clone who stepped in for me for a bit."
He went back to the group, they were all standing around, talking. The last guy, the Speedy clone, was the one left standing there.
"I'm the one you were told was Speedy. I go by Red Arrow, now, and I'm the one who brought you here."
"What's going on? Everyone tells me you'll explain."
"Come with me, and I will."
So, they headed off to a side room to talk.
"After I left the Hall of Justice, I wandered around for a while, trying to figure out what to do. I saw first hand what the Justice Lords had done to the world, and I wanted to stop it. I stumbled across this place after a while, and set it up as my base of operations. As the Lords protégés left them, I collected them so that we can take down the League. You're the only one left that we need to launch our plan. I know this must be confusing, but we need you."
"And you think I'll just drop everything I believe in to help you?"
"No. We're giving it a week. If at the end of that week you want to go back the Justice Lords, fine by me. But at least try to keep an open mind while you're here."
Red Arrow went back to the common room. Robin didn't know what he was supposed to do. This next week was going to be wild.
Behold! The next chapter is up! I keep forgetting to put a disclaimer here, so here I go. I don't own Young Justice. I really don't understand why that's necessary, though, because this is fanfiction, and the people writing on here obviously don't own the things they're writing about.
Anyways, have a fantastic day,
Shadow
