Blair's POV
I'd barely slept in 3 days, so of course I was awake and making a sandwich when Lian came in looking fed up and tired.
"You okay?"
"No. Urgh my dad is freaking out because my mom's home. He always does this, first he gets all weird and pissy and then our house gets very loud. If you catch my drift…" she says waggling her eyebrows.
"Nice, you want a sandwich?"
"Yeah go for it." She says, "What's got you up at this time of night?"
"Too many thoughts in a small head."
She smiles, "I know the feeling little cuz. Anything I can help with?"
"Not unless you can tell me how someone everybody thought was dead is alive?"
"Hell if I know. Maybe it's a Lazarus pit, I don't know. I've only got a year on you."
"I don't know, the last few weeks have been such a crazy roller coaster, I met my dad, I got shot, got injected with magic medicine, then sent to space to live with people I never knew, met this whole family of people who all know each other and I'm the stranger, then I got psychically blasted by my friend who I thought was dead, and then-"I groan in frustration and take a huge bite out of my sandwich.
Lian laughs. "Alright, you got dumped with a bunch of strangers, and your friend may or not be alive, but strangers are just friends you haven't met yet. Anyway tell me about your friends back home educate me on some strangers."
"Only if you do the same, I want hear about your life too. So I'll spill my guts if you spill yours, deal?"
"Deal." She says with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
"You didn't?" she says dismayed
"Yep, and I didn't even believe it till I saw the video. The first thing I remember from that night is waking up half naked and hanging out of the dryer in the morning next to…." I trail off.
"Next to who?"
"Amara." I whisper.
"That's a whole 'nother story isn't it."
"Yeah, a very confusing story that apparently is having an unplanned sequel." I mutter.
"That's just our lives, they're always bonkers and unpredictable, comes with the justice league territory."
"And Falcon territory." I say flopping back on the sofa in the den, we'd been sitting there for hours just talking about everything we'd missed out on, it would've been so different if my mom had stayed, and we would've be so much closer.
"I've seen footage of Falcons on the holoscreens when disasters are on, they're great, so responsive to disasters, and a lot of them are really attractive."
"Aww thank you, but touch an of my teammates and I will hurt you."
"Alright. Hey, are you bored up here?"
"Yeah, a little."
"How do you feel about a little shopping excursion later. I bet I could persuade my dad to get you clearance to let you go down to Star city and hang out down there with me for the day."
"Lets do it." I say excitedly, I might be allowed back on earth among normal people.
"How the hell did you swing this?" I shout as the wind hits our faces, I was actually down on earth again, and I could feel the wind and the sun thank God. We were on the back of Lian's motorcycle charging around Star city.
"Icon owed me a favour." She tells me as she parks her motorcycle outside starbucks
"Thank you, now let's go get some proper coffee."
"And spend all of Grandpa Ollie's money." She says
"I don't know if that's a good decision."
"It's fine we can just say it's payback for all the birthdays he missed."
"This is how we know you're a rich girl in disguise." I joke, her response is to stick out her tongue.
"Two mocha frappes, please." She asks the barista, he's kind of cute and starts immediately flirting with him.
"Your frappes, ladies." He says handing them to us.
"Thanks," she pauses to look at his nametag, "Eric." She finishes biting her lip, the poor guy didn't have a chance.
"How much?" she asks batting her eyes framed with long thick lashes.
"they're, uh.. um, they're.. um.. free, they're free."
"Thanks." She says with a grin.
We walk out of the coffee shop, "You didn't need to do that, that poor guy probably needs to take a cold shower now."
"I didn't have to I just wanted to." She says with a laugh she loops an arm through mine and we walk down the cold street together looking at stuff in the shop windows.
"Ooh I know where we can go."
"Where?" I ask warily, Lian's plans are always crazy and usually end up with someone in jail, usually Olive.
"My favourite clothing shop on the planet, its this little vintage place on Orion."
"You have a street called Orion in star city, what you got another street called ursa major?" I joke.
She groans, "Oh my God you do!" I shout laughing my ass off.
Artemis's POV
"Jade's home?" I ask Roy, he'd stopped by watch tower looking for Lian.
"Yeah she came home last night I'm not sure for how long, but she's home."
"So Lian just left?"
"She always does when Jade comes home, then she steals Ollie credit card and goes on a spending binge, he doesn't mind but he'd prefer she just pulled a you and beat up thugs, instead of beating up his credit card."
"Well at least she'll never get the urge to start bar brawls." Wally pipes up.
"Not funny." Roy gives Wally a death glare.
"I think it was."
"Look Jade says she want to see Artemis, it's important."
"Alright, I'll zeta down in a minute. Let me just tell the team that training's cancelled, I'm sure they'll be really upset." I say sarcastically.
I raise my hand to knock on the door, please don't be home. I knock, the door swings open. I see my sister, her face is unchanged, seriously, it's like she hasn't aged.
"Jade, hi."
"Hi." She say with a soft smile no Cheshire grin, just Jade. "Would you like to come in?" she asks
"Yeah sure." I say.
"So, how have you been?"
"Good, you."
"Same old same old."
"So still an assassin then."
"Yeah, but the jobs are more important now."
"More important how? They pay better?"
"Some. Most of them aren't just killing for no reason, only the ones who truly deserve it."
"Great, Jade."
"You want tea?"
"Yeah, tea would be nice."
"Okay."
"Why am I here Jade?"
"I need to talk to you."
"What about?" I ask
"Da-" She gets cut off mid sentence.
"Hello baby girl." My blood ran cold
"Dad."
A/N: Haha I bet you thought I'd end it there. It's not ending here.
3rd person
"We just need to stop at my house so I can grab some stuff to sleep up at watch tower."
"Alright, maybe I can finally meet my aunt."
"Don't hold your breath knowing mom, she's already gone."
We reach the door of the apartment and we hear yelling.
"This was all some plot, to get me here, wasn't it?"
"No Artemis, that's not true."
"Lian, why is my mom here?"
"Don't ask me." Lian says opening the door, my mom's there with a black haired woman who looks like my mom and a large blonde man.
"You!" Blair snarls and lunges at the man with a murderous look across her face. The three women in the room look at the red head attacking the ex-Olympian.
She pulls out her CPFA, "Red to squad, {that assassin asshole is right in front of me am I allowed to rip his throat out or would any team members like to join me.}."
"Does anyone have any idea of what was just said?" Artemis mutters to Lian and Jade.
"No clue but it can't be good. Although it is quite entertaining watching your daughter try to kill our father."
"Jade!"
"I'm just saying whatever he did to that kid, Well let's just say I've never seen anyone so mad before."
Sportsmaster turns and vaults out the window Blair follows, chasing after him. Leaving Jade Lian and Artemis wondering three things; What had he done that pissed her off so much, what had she said into her CPFA, and how the hell did she get one of /jades ornamental swords off the wall without anyone noticing. Artemis Ran behind afraid of what her daughter might do, Lian radios the watch tower and Jade sits there with a smile drinking tea, thinking that he had it coming.
Sorry it's a day late I kept getting this weird error message come up on my computer. Disclaimer I don't own any yj or dc characters in this. I think they'll be another 15-20 chapter of this story until it's finished. Anyway I've got a whole list of other projects I'm going to start work on I'll put up a poll on my writer page so you can pick what you want next.
