"WALLY, YOU SON OF A BITCH!"
Turnip jumped slightly at the sudden outburst from the girls' bathroom.
Robin snickered beside him on the couch. "Wally, what did you do this time?" Robin asked Wally-in uniform- who was sitting on the ground in front of them.
Wally smirked. "You'll see." He said before returning to his bio homework.
Conner rolled his eyes and continued to watch the static on the tv.
Artemis stormed into the rec room, wearing nothing but a towel. Her hair was bright pink.
Robin started laughing uncontrolably and Turnip just stared at Artemis in awe.
"You god damn crud-munching pit-sniffing shit-in-your-fucking-cheerios son of a-"
"Baby ears!" Turnip shouted, covering up his ears.
Robin laughed.
"Baby ears?" Conner asked. "You cursed out Wonder Woman!" He said, having heard the whole ordeal from the rec room.
Turnip blushed and looked at his lap as Artemis proceeded to strangle Wally with her pink hair.
"You cursed out Wonder Woman?" Robin asked, shocked.
"Then he apologised." Conner said.
"And you apologised?!" Robin asked.
Turnip nodded sheepishly.
"Why are you still here?" Conner asked, sounding annoyed even though he could really care less.
"So you can baby sit." Turnip said dully.
"How old are you?" Robin asked.
"Thirteen..." Turnip asked shyly.
"So am I." Robin said.
"You're only thirteen?" Turnip asked.
"There's a reason he's so short." Wally said as Artemis sat next to him, still in a towel.
"Bro!" Robin hissed.
"You were in the bathroom for forty five minutes." Conner said.
"So?" Artemis asked.
"Watcha doing in there?" Wally teased.
"Showering!" She shouted, standing up. "What were you doing in the bath room?"
"Ooh! I know!" Robin stood up and started swaying his hips. "Jiggle my boner! Hang a towel on my boner! Put my boner in a shampoo bottle! Because it's small enough to fit!"
Wally's face turned dark red as Artemis started laughing.
Robin smirked and sat down again, this time closer to Turnip.
"You watch way too much Jenna Marbles." Wally said quietly.
Turnip giggled.
"Artemis!" M'gann screeched when she entered the rec room, floating over to her and trying to cover her up. "There are Wallies and little boys in the room!" She said as she grabbed Artemis and pulled her to the bathrrom.
"That's Green Arrow's niece, right?" Turnip asked Robin.
"Yeah." Robin said, putting his arms behind his head.
Turnip nodded.
"You should train with us." Wally suggested.
Turnip shook his head. "I shouldn't be distracting you guys."
"It would be fine for today." Robin said. "I could teach you some of my easier moves."
"Kaldur, can Turnip train with us?" Wally asked as Kaldur walked into the room.
"I suppose." Kaldur said as he sat next to Wally.
"Black Canary can use him as an example of holding back when your fighting a weaker opponent." Conner said.
"See?" Wally said, not noticing the insult. "You can train with us!"
Robin sighed and shook his head.
xxoxoxoxoxoxo
Black Canary, Green Arrow and Batman watched as Conner dragged Turnip into the tech room. Turnip's heels were in front of him as he desperately tried to pull away from him. Conner let go and Turnip fell on his butt.
Robin grabbed Turnip and helped him up as the others walked in.
Ollie's mouth dropped open when he saw Artemis's pink pony tail. "Artemis-"
"I don't wanna talk about it." She growled.
Robin pointed to Wally and Ollie nodded.
"We were hoping that Turnip would be allowed to participate with us in today's training." Kaldur said.
"It wouldn't hurt for today." Black Canary said. "Robin, would you spar with Turnip?"
"Sure," Robin grabbed Turnip and dragged him out to the training ground. He then got into his own stance.
"Go easy on him, Rob!" Wally shouted.
"Ready," Black Canary said. "Set, go!"
Robin threw a punch at Turnip, which would have purposely ended a few inches in front of Turnip's face but to everyone's surprise, Turnip blocked it easily.
Robin gasped as Turnip grabbed his hand and pushed him backwards. He easily caught his footing and swung his body around, building momentum so he could kick Turnip in the shoulders.
Turnip ducked quickly, keeping his eyes on the whites of Robin's mask. He lept forward and elbowed Robin in the side.
Robin could usually tell what his opponent was going to do by watching which direction their eyes would flick, but Turnip wouldn't break eye contact.
Turnip stomped on Robin's foot, then swung his arm into Robin's side.
"Okay, no more Mister Whelmed Guy!" Robin shouted good-heartedly as he socked Turnip in the gut.
Turnip gasped and stepped back.
Robin went to punch in the face (not too hard, though) but again, Turnip caught his hand.
Turnip pulled Robin closer to him. He then grabbed Robin's knee and flung him over his head.
Robin landed on his back on the ground behind Turnip with a loud thump.
"What in the world?" Robin asked in disbelief as Turnip turned around and kneeled beside him.
"Robin, fail." The computer voice said.
"What was that!?" Artemis asked.
Robin sat up and stared at Turnip. "Where did you learn that?"
Turnip put his chin on his knee, still kneeling on the ground beside Robin. "My bio parents..." He said quietly, only loud enough for Robin and Conner to hear. He grabbed Robin's hand an pulled him up.
"Can any one tell me what Robin did wrong?"
Robin grumbled as he walked back over to his friends, Turnip following behind him.
"He underestimated an opponent?" Kaldur asked.
"Yes." Black Canary said. "You must always assume that your opponent is more skilled than you think they are."
"He wasn't expecting me to have any skill at all." Turnip defended. "That's why he held back so much."
Black Canary nodded.
"He didn't break eye contact!" Robin said grumpily. "I couldn't even predict what his next move would be."
"I'm sorry..." Turnip said. "I didn't hurt you did I?"
"N-No." Robin shook his head, surprised that Turnip even cared. "I'm fine. No harm done." Robin said, giving Turnip one of his trademark smirks.
Artemis and M'gann looked at eachother. Artemis wiggled her eyebrows suggestively at her, flicked her eyes toward Turnip and Robin, then back at M'gann and smirked.
M'gann nodded knowingly and giggled.
