Angelic Consequences
Chapter 4: I Thought Things Couldn't Get More Confusing
Athena's POV
"Robin I wasn't your first Guardian Angel." I turned too looked at him and he was shocked.
"What do you mean you weren't my first, don't people only get one or something?" Robin asked me. I mulled in my head, what I was about to tell him. I crossed rapidly to his bed and sat down in-front of him with my legs crossed.
"Robin, this information is quite sensitive so pay attention." I told him. I concentrated and with my hands I build people with my energy like those holograms. I could hear Richard gasp at seeing the figures appear.
"Every person is designated one Guardian Angel which changes in two ways they get killed by a demon or they change." I felt the water in my eyes but I held them back.
"So, my Guardian Angel got killed by a demon." He stated. I shook my head and he looked at me with wide eyes.
"The month before your parents died your Guardian Angel then had been acting weird tempted by the other side." I said. "His name is Marcus."
"Tempted, how?" Robin asked me.
"They didn't tell me all exactly, what was the reason but I have a feeling it had to do with feelings." I told him. "His feelings for someone, like when I told you about Kaya we have many charges so I think the charge before you there was something that caught his eye."
"Then what happened?" he asked me with so much emotion.
I didn't know if I should tell him, I was afraid it would bring him nightmares. But at the same time it would bring him so much closer to Bruce.
"The night your parents…" I let it go and he understood.
"The night my parents died." He said encouraging me to continue.
"He left you that the moment your parents hit the floor." I told him and I could feel the tears in his and my eyes. "No one would believe he would just leave you in a moment like that in moments like those the Angel tends to be more protective of the charge just in-case they tried to get even."
"How did you guys find out I didn't have him anymore?" he asked me. I smiled a bit.
"Let's just say Bruce's Angel is just as terrifying as the charge." I said and he looked at me.
"Bruce has one?" he asked me.
"Of course, how in the world do you think a man like him could live after so many death-experiences?" I said. "He took double duty and waited until Bruce was asleep to come to 'Heaven' and he told the one in-charge of what had happened."
"That still doesn't explain how you became my Guardian Angel." He said.
"Well I had just graduated and when they called me in I expected to get a little baby as my first assignment I didn't expect them to tell me you were to be my first duty." I admitted. "Bruce's Angel was in shocked and he gave me a glare just like Bruce did and told me to take care of you and now here I am." I said.
"What happened to Marcus?" Robin asked.
'He is still out there but everyone that means the Demons and Angels know that a rogue angel is just as dangerous as a Demon, since he just left he can challenge me for my post if he wanted." He stayed quiet for a while.

Robin's POV
I couldn't believe the words that had come out of Athena's mouth. Not only that but all the things that had gone on behind our backs. I smiled knowing that Bruce had protected me in a way he didn't know.
"Richard." The voice took me out of my thoughts I looked at Athena and I couldn't help but smile. She was putting her life on the line for me and even though I knew it was because she had to. For some reason it felt nice to know.
I didn't know, what happened but I hugged her and she hugged me back.
"Thank-you." I whispered.
"You don't have to thank me Richard." She said. I left her go and smirk.
"Well I'm feeling the aster, how about we go get breakfast?" I asked her and she smiled.
"I'll beat you to the kitchen." She said. I cackled as she ran out of my room and I followed her.

Normal POV
As they ran into the kitchen no one was still awake. They ate breakfast because really they didn't want to make anything.
Athena heard the team coming and she saw that both her and Robin didn't have their glasses. She concentrated and both their faces were covered by the domino mask.
"That is still cool." Athena smiled at the compliment.
"Guys I thought both of you were bats waking up early isn't exactly on your list." KF said.
"Shut-it, Baywatch." Artemis said. Athena turned to see her and felt the energy come from her. Something had happened during the night as well.
Kaldur looking at the bickering couple choose to ignore them and looked at Robin.
"Robin, do you know if Black Canary will be coming today?" he asked.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure." Robin replied. The team ate in peace for a while and as they cleaned the kitchen they got the call.
"Team get ready for mission." Batman's voice called throughout the mountain. The team was surprised.
"A mission these early." Megan said.
"Hey I'm not complaining." KF said.
All of them went to change before they could get to the main room.
In the main room Batman was waiting for the team to come. As the team came Batman looked for Robin and his Guardian Angel. They came in together and both looked at him. Batman noticed that Athena flinched and he was surprised because he wasn't giving her a glare.

Athena's POV
If people think that the Dark Knight was bad. They should really see his Guardian Angel. He was terrifying and he was making himself known. I couldn't put my gaze down from him and even though to half of the room I seemed to be paying attention to Batman which I was, I was staring at the man behind him.
"Marcus is getting closer, Athena." He hissed at me and I became smaller.
"I know." I whispered.
"He will take Richard if you aren't careful now that you're visible." He told me.
"I will keep Rob safe, I gave you my word." I whispered. I heard a clap and the rest of the team was getting ready to deploy.
"I've seen, what Marcus is capable of be safe is all I ask." I gave him a nod.

Normal POV
The team was to be sent into another mission dealing with Sportsmaster and Cheshire at the same time making Athena worry more than anything. She could already see Artemis tense at the news.
"Team we should arrive in Santa Prisca at any minute, Miss Martian link us up." Kaldur said and Athena breathed in. she made sure Megan could get in but she wouldn't be able to see anything even if she tried. Her mind was too strong for even Miss Martian to understand.
"Everyone in?" Miss Martian asked.
"Yeah." KF, Artemis and Superboy replied.
"Yes." Robin, Kaldur and Destina said. Miss Martian looked at Athena and looked at her
"Oh, Hello Megan, Destina you mustn't know, what's going on." Miss Martian said.
"I do, um; Robin explained it to me in the Bat-cave." She said and Miss Megan smiled.
Athena looked down and saw the island.
"Nervous?" Robin whispered.
"A little." She whispered back.
"Okay, Robin you and Destina go get information we'll take care of the guards." Kaldur said and both Robin and Destina nodded.

Athena's POV
Robin and I hid in the shadows and moved toward the main room. The room was full of man inside. I grabbed a silver rose from my headband and threw it to the floor smiling at Robin as I did. One by one the man in the room fell asleep.
As we fell to the floor Robin looked at me.
"How in the world did you do that?" he asked.
"Lots of practice." I told him and he began to hack the computers to get information.
"How are you and Robin doing?" Kaldur asked us.
"Robin is taking the information now." I told him. We began to hear the barrage of bullets being thrown.
"That was too soon." Robin told me.
"I know." I said as I knew the person responsible for that. "Hurry." I whispered to him. As he continued to get the information I stood next to him until I heard something from behind.
"Well, well if it isn't the little hero's." I turn to look at Cheshire. She looked at me with curiosity. "You must be new I have not seen you before. Well how I give you a proper welcome."
She came at me with her two swords and I concentrated to get a staff in my hands and blocked her shots. I smacked her with the staff in the stomach using it so I could flip and hit her right in the face. We backed down, she smiled.
"It seems your stronger than most, I'm impressed." She said. Then she flipped and kicked me in the chin, I back stepped flipped my staff and did a helicopter kick using the stick as leverage. She dropped and I put the staff right at her neck. I moved slowly as I handcuffed her into the chair. Robin looked at me and smirk.
"Aster." He said. "I'm done."
"Team, report." Kaldur said.
"Rob is done with the transition and we have Cheshire." I said.
"Really, who took her down?" KF asked.
"Destina." Robin told them.
"Way to go Bat-Babe." KF told us and I felt a blush.
"We'll be there in a bit." Miss Martian told us sounding happy. Robin and I stood together that it took me a few second to realize something was wrong. I heard the echo of an arrow and the gas began to descend in the air. Robin began to flop, and I follow suit but I didn't knock out it just made me weak. But I closed my eyes just in-case.
"Thanks little sister, now your friends won't know your little secret." Cheshire said and I felt my fist clench. I saw Artemis stand right there. Once I felt Cheshire leave I began to stand up coughing a little.
"Destina are you alright?" she asked me. I looked at her and looked at the chair Cheshire was occupying. Artemis followed my gaze. She looked down. "Cheshire knocked you out with a gas and I tried to get her but my arrow missed."
I went to help Robin get up and the rest of the team arrived.
"What happened?" Kaldur asked and Artemis explained.
"Oh, that sucks." KF said. "Destina, Rob is still out how come you're not?" he asked me.
"My mask has a nose cover I was able to put it on but it was too late, I had already inhaled some of the smoke." I told him. Artemis looked scared and she should be.
"That's good; we should get back to the ship." Kaldur said. I helped Robin and Artemis tried to help but I glared at her.
"Don't." I hissed and she looked away. Superboy walked next to me and helped Robin to the ship.

Note: That is the end of this chapter. Okay, I made Artemis look bad but don't kill me. You guys have to remember that no one knows she is related to Cheshire and Sportsmater so she wouldn't want the team to know. I hope you like the chapter and review.
