Mico10052-Yes K'el is a green Martian, sorry if I didn't make it clear. Thanks for having faith in my work.
…No, no don't think like that, but she can't stay, or I'll eventually have to go. So they never know about me….and who I am.
"What is up M'gann?" Zatanna questioned M'gann.
"Yeah, you should be thrilled that your sister came to see YOU." Artemis added with a bit of sadness at the end, who only Zatanna noticed.
"I-I'm fine." M'gann broke out of her own thoughts, walking to the showers.
"You…sure?" Artemis questioned, looking at Zatanna.
"Yes?" She seemed to question herself, unsure if she truly is fine. She couldn't lie, she wasn't fine but she had to keep that hidden from everyone. There was no point for them to go to the showers since the only thing they did was stood there, the blue tiles reflecting onto them from the light.
"Are YOU sure your fine M'gann?" Artemis questioned again, hoping that her troubled friend would talk.
"I'm fine, truly." Was the reply along with a forced smile.
"Really, you don't seem fine?" Zatanna questioned.
"W-what makes you think that?"
"Well…we are in the showers."
"So."
"We are just…standing here? Doing nothing."
"I just needed breathing space."
"Breathing Space." Artemis questioned. M'gann froze as if she has said too much and was about to burst.
"Y-you know from fighting. My battle went the…longest. Remember?"
"Um, yeah. But what is wrong?"
"Yeah are you sure you are not upset about your sister being here?" Zatanna added to Artemis' question.
"No, no. I'm thrilled! Truly." She spoke with an honest smile. "It's just that everyone is so glad to have her around, that t- "
"They haven't forgot you are here." Zatanna cut in with a smile. "You don't need to worry; no one can replace you. EVER! End of story. OK?"
"Yeah but- "
"No buts! You are one of a kind, more powerful than you sister, both mentally and physically, you were holding back. I know it."
"Yeah. Holding back." There was no way I was holding BACK...was I?
"M'gann, I know your just nervous and that's ok. I know that it can be hard with an older sister you haven't seen in ages taking a role you do not like but that is why we have each other; we are our own family. I'm your 'Earth sister' remember?"
"Where did that come from?" Zatanna looked at Artemis confusedly who just shrugged.
"I know we have each other, yes, we are a family, you are my 'Earth sister', but what if she becomes a part of this family. I don't know what she is truly capable of. She is strong. But I came here. And she followed me." M'gann was speaking with more nervousness with each word that exited her mouth.
"You have nothing to fear and if she becomes part of this family we will have to powerful Martians on our team. It's certainly better having family on the same side as you instead of the opposite. Believe me." Artemis concluded her sentence without really realizing what she had said.
"I do it's just that, yes I love her but what if the rest of the team AND the league like her better than me, that they think she is better than me, that- "
"Um- "Artemis cut in but she got cut off before anything else could be said.
"Woah! Hold on a minute. She can never be liked better or thought better than you because she is NOT you! Ok? Believe and you will achieve. You have done so much good for this team, don't think it is going to be thrown down the drain from a family member." Zatanna was not going to give up. M'gann had to see the positives.
"Yeah, y-your right." M'gann spoke. Better to agree than to have it questioned further and risk them discovering the secrets.
"Course I am." She spoke with confidence.
"Thanks, both of you. I needed that."
"Your Welcome." Artemis said confusedly but didn't argue or question it.
"What are we doing here again?" Zatanna spoke with a smile.
"No idea." M'gann answered.
"Then let's go." Zatanna was feeling needed, it was great she could cheer up a good friend, the next that she needed to crack was Artemis, but that was a whole different thing altogether.
"I'm glad that you tried to help Zatanna, thanks for that."
"No problem." The three of the were about to exit when someone floated in.
"You ok sis? I didn't hurt you did I?" K'el appeared suddenly speaking with concern.
"Yes and. No?" Um K'el what are you doing?
Loving my sister of course. Come on we are family. We look after each other.
Ok? M'gann was very confused and breaking the mind link down was just more confusing.
"Oh, guess what?" K'el questioned.
"What?" Came the reply of the three other girls.
"I am allowed to stay longer, even if I don't stay on the team, I can choose to if I want or not at a later point in time, but! I can go to the school you go to! Aren't you excited?!"
"Wait, What! When! Why!" M'gann questioned.
"I am going to your school. I got accepted today and I forgot to tell you." K'el stated counting off her fingers.
"This quickly?"
"No, I applied when I got here and now I am ACCEPTED! This is gonna be soooo much fun. Hanging with my little sis."
"Ok." M'gann spoke. "Sure…fun!"
"Lighten up, you should be thrilled. This is gonna be fun!" K'el spoke with excitement while Artemis and Zatanna just looked at each other in confusion.
"So are you staying here for- "
"EVER, yeah maybe. I can drop out of the school anytime I want. I just want to learn the strange human customs here."
"Oh."
"It's going to be great seeing you everyday sis." K'el said smiling, hugging her sister then flying out of the room quickly.
This is going to be chaos. M'gann thought as she walked out of the showers with Artemis and Zatanna right next to her. Wait! Why would it be chaos. Zatanna's right. She is family and family takes care of each other. Just like K'el is trying to do. Maybe I should tell her my Earth name so it doesn't get weird at school. Maybe this would be fun.
