I don't own Young Justice!

"We're dead, Batman's going to kill us!" Wally exclaimed. "No, I take that back. He's not going to kill us, he's going to make us suffer because he doesn't kill!"

"Calm down, Baywatch." Artemis ordered. "If she took him it's for a reason, otherwise she would have just killed him here and now."

"And that's supposed to make me feel better?" He asked. "My best friend was just taken by a freaking assassin that murdered her own father!"

She crossed her arms. "Yes, because it means she isn't going to kill him yet. She still finds him useful and as long as he's useful he's safe."

"Besides, he's Robin. He'll find a way out." Megan reassured. "He always does, right?"

"Yes, but even so we must alert the league of this new occurrence at once." Kaldur ordered.

"Of course." Wally replied. "So… who's going to tell Batman?"

Artemis looked at everyone. "I'm not about to get anywhere near Batman."

Kaldur sighed. "As the leader, I guess it is my responsibility."

"Good luck with that." Wally muttered.

"Okay, so how do I explain it to him? He's probably going to end up fighting me either way but… ugh this is so complicated!"

Aria paced the small living room, her arms crossed as she contemplated her choices.

"How about just telling him the truth?" A voice behind her spoke.

She turned to him, her eye narrowed. "The truth? Do you think that telling him the truth will work?"

"If it doesn't you could always let him go." The archer replied, leaning against the wall.

Her eyes softened as she took a seat in the couch. "Roy, I didn't even want to get him involved. But these people are so fucking screwed up, I want to tell him the truth but I also want to protect him."

"Well, figure out what you are going to tell him. He'll be awake in a couple of minutes." As soon as he said that the girl was up in her feet in no time.

"And you didn't tell me this before why?" She demanded.

"You seemed preoccupied." He responded, walking away.

"You're impossible!" She exclaimed.

"I agreed to work with you, I never agreed to like it." He replied.

Her comeback was lost on her lips as a smirk began to form. "Keep talking like that and you'll truly be one of us in no time."

He sharply turned to her. "Don't say that."

"And here I thought we were having a moment." She replied. "Oh well, to each his own."

Roy snorted. "You, having a moment? That's so possible."

Aria gasped dramatically. "Is this sarcasm I hear, from you? So it's true, you can evolve." She smirked, daring him to counter the comment.

Instead he just turned back into the kitchen and left her alone.

She crossed her arms, pouting. "You're no fun."

"Speak for yourself." He responded. "Don't you have a certain boy wonder to go look after?"

She walked away, towards the rooms. "Fine, but this isn't over."

"It's a never ending battle, isn't it?" Was the last sentence she heard as she entered the room where they were keeping Robin.

She closed the door behind her, not bothering to really lock it. The room wasn't small, there was a large bed in the center and an armchair, the rest was all space. There were no windows, only blank walls; meaning no escape for the kid.

Aria placed herself in the armchair and watched him silently, he was still asleep. (Technically knocked out but whatever!)

She smiled to herself slightly, noticing how young he looked when he wasn't fighting or trying to put on a brave face like Batman. He reminded her of the kid she once knew, the one who she promised to protect.

Robin woke up with a startled gasp, not knowing where he was. He sat up and noticed that he was no longer wearing his mask or utility belt… or his gloves. He was practically defenseless.

But he also noticed that he wasn't being restrained, which was strange to say the least.

He willed himself to remember what had happened when a voice interrupted his thoughts. "Morning, Ricky G."

He turned to the voice, already knowing who it was. "Aria, where am I?"

She smiled. "Somewhere where the league won't find you, at least not for now." She looked at him. "What do you remember?"

"We were in the mountain… I was talking to you… and you kidnapped me?" He exclaimed the last part.

"Well it seems that you're memory's perfectly fine." She murmured to herself.

"Where am I?" He practically screamed.

She frowned, giving him a sympathetic glance. "Sorry, can't tell you. Come on, get up."

He looked at her as she stood from her chair. "Why?"

She smiled. "Trust me, you want to see him."

Robin reluctantly stood up, following her out the door.

He noticed the narrow hallway, keeping his eye on everything just in case.

They finally stopped in what appeared to be a kitchen; the stove stood to the far left, the fridge standing directly across from it. On top were rows and rows of cabinets, some slightly open. And finally on the center was a small round table that could sit four people.

She pulled out a chair for him to sit on. "Have a seat." When she saw that he made no move to approach it she rolled her eyes. "I'm not going to hurt you, remember? Now sit."

He walked over and finally took a seat, his eyes never leaving her. "So who am I supposed to meet?"

She smiled. "Hold on…" She went to stand over to the door's frame, looking out the kitchen. "He's up, Arsenal."

"Arsenal? Isn't that who you said… you know?" Robin asked, tensing.

Aria smiled. "I think it's time you knew everything kid; Speedy is dead, Red Arrow is dead. In order for everything to work out he had to die, but that doesn't mean he's gone. Meet Arsenal, my partner."

She sidestepped so he could get a better look, his eyes visibly widening at the sight. "Roy?"

Roy Harper stood beside Aria, smiling. "Hey Robin."

I just felt like leaving it like this, should I make my chapters longer?

Please review, and vote on my poll... again! I added more choices in for the sake of my sanity, and I made a new YJ story... it was demanded by some people... it's called Maybe Someday and it's about Robin (soon to be Nightwing) go read it, it's no longer a one-shot!

REVIEW!
