Missing You Ch 3

Wowwww guys, I suck! I'm really sorry. Stuff's been crazy with school and college apps and writing essays. Plus, I don't know if I mentioned this before but writing's hard. Not only that, but I for some crazy reason can't come write and then come back and add on to chapters and then post it. Noooooo I have to make it harder on myself by sitting down and let everything come out at once. Anyways, I'm sorry I've taken so long to post this. This won't be the longest chapter, but it's kind of a filler. We'll finally learn who the poor sucker is that tore fate apart… XD Anyways, in case you haven't heard….. YJ IS COMING BACK WITH TARGETS ON SEPTEMBER 16! *INSERT FANGIRL SCREAM* For those of you unaware, Episode 10 is already up online on youtube, but it's coming out for the first time on TV on the 16th, and then I'm pretty sure we're on an uninterrupted schedule for the rest of the year! Can anyone say parrrtaaayy. So I hope that bit of news lightens your anger /disappointment at me.

Disclaimer: I still don't own YJ :(

Artemis's eyes snapped open, a scowl on her face as the incessant ringing continued and Wally pulled away from her. Whoever was calling was in a serious load of trouble. She almost felt sorry for the poor soul who had to face the wrath of Artemis, a formerly trained assassin/ League of Shadows operative. Almost.

After getting off the couch, he reached his cell on the kitchen counter in a millisecond. "What?" he snapped not bothering to look at the caller ID. His facial expression changed to one of mere annoyance as the caller spoke. "Rob? Sorry, but you're timing really sucks. Can I call you- " Wally listened, his face changing again to a mixture of curiousity and worry. "Help? What-"

Now that piqued her curiosity. Since when did Batman's protégé need help? She turned towards Wally, straining to hear what Rob was saying. Wally put the phone on speaker.

"I'm getting our old team back together. I called you first." She almost didn't recongnize the voice. Something even more was off, gone was the playful tone from the Robin they used to know; now it was replaced with this serious and unnerving voice.

"Well, naturally, but what's going on with you?"

"Listen, I can't explain over the phone, especially since you're on speaker."

Wally and Artemis's eyes met. "How'd-" Wally started.

"Because it's me. Now who are you with?" A beat later

"Hey Rob" Artemis said, finally speaking up.

"Hello Artemis, figured it may have been you. Anyway, I need you two to go to Gotham tomorrow and be at the Westside Park at 4:36 on the dot. Wear your civies, try not to draw too much attention to yourselves. I'll meet you guys there and explain everything."

"Robin!" "Wait, Wait-" the speedster and archer chirped, but all they got in response was a dial tone.

"What do you think that was about?" she asked looking up at Wally.

He shrugged, obviously worried. " I don't know. Did you notice how cryptic and serious he was?" Artemis gave him a look. "Right, Sorry. It's just- he didn't even use any of his own words or make fun of us being together."

"It was very Batman like" she mused. " I haven't seen him get like that, have you?"

He shook his head slowly. She laid a hand on his arm, and he looked up into her grey blue eyes. "Don't worry. Everything's going to be fine. Whatever it is, there's nothing that can stop the team." He gave her a soft smile, "You're right."

"I know"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," he laughed. "So how are we getting to Gotham? It's too far for me to take us both with our luggage. And I have no idea how long he's going to be needing us."

"We can just take the train. That's how I got here. There's one leaving at 11 tomorrow morning, with that we should be there by 3:30. That should give us plenty of time to meet Robin. Even enough time for you, the ironically always late speedster" her lips curving into a smirk as she spoke.

"Hey! That's soo not my fault!"

"So who's fault is it?"

"The-the-whatever!" He scowled as she laughed. "Hey, did you honestly memorize the train schedule between Central City and Gotham."

"No. I just have good memory, and-" she was interrupted by rumbling coming from Wally's general direction. "Hungry much?"

"Okay, that shouldn't even be a question when directed at me." She smiled at him. "I know this great Chinese takeout place. Their sesame chicken is amazing."

"Well then order away" she waved her hand at him as he picked up the cell phone to make the call.

Several hours later they were sitting on his couch, eating their Chinese food, and reconnecting.

"Oh my god! Do you remember the time-" she gushed

"That was so not my fault! How was I supposed to know chili peppers did that?"

"The look on his face? Priceless!"

"Hell yeah! But at least I never-"

"Hey, hey we swore we'd never speak of that again…"

Soon they were both holding their stomachs laughing.

At about 3: 15 the two heroes were sitting on the train. The redhead had claimed the window seat and watched as the buildings started getting taller and more modern looking, occasionally stealing glances and smiling at the blonde laying her head on his shoulder. She shifted as the robotic voice announced that they were nearing Gotham. She looked up into bright green eyes and smiled before realizing her proximity and quickly sitting back up straight, coughing awkwardly. 15 minutes later they pulled into the train station, having finally arrived.

"Watch out Gotham, here we come" Wally West declared out loud, ignoring the archer's eye roll and smile.

A/N: I know, the not most exciting chapter, but I hope you know why. Ooooh what's going on with Robin? You'll have to keep reading/ reviewing to find out!

As of now I have 25 reviews and that's just soo freaking awesome, especially for just 2 chapters! You guys rock! Thanks for sticking with me.
