"Wally….is that you?" asked Artemis. Wally made sure Artemis couldn't see his tears or hear his sniffles. He watched with pain as she looked so scared.

He concealed his depression by making a fake smile, even though she couldn't see it. "Hey beautiful! How are you?" said Wally.

Artemis laughed, "Yup, it's Wally alright." They both made a slight laugh however soon enough the atmosphere went south.

Minutes after absolute silence, Wally decided to confront her. "You….can't..see me…right?" Wally asked gravely. Artemis trembled while clenching her fists. Wally was the last person who she would ever want to know about her condition: she didn't want to be a burden.

"So what? Now that I'm useless you can get your Red Arrow back…I can leave like you wanted me to," Artemis yelled. Wally cried quietly and closed his eyes, unable to look at her. He held her hands and confessed, "You are not Red Arrow's replacement..you are…more..than that to me…" Though Artemis could not see his face, she could feel his sincerity through his gentle touch. She let out a tear and internally confessed that she loved him too, but he's fast and she would only drag him down.

She took his hand and took it off hers and went down the floor. She pointed at herself and said "Look, baywatch. Sorry to disappoint you, but if you haven't noticed, I'm blind.

Artemis reluctantly cracked a smile for Wally's cheesy lines melted her heart. Suddenly, she felt hot breath on her face coming closer and closer..She felt her heart beating faster than ever. Is he going to kiss me? Wally slowly approached her, inch by inch, and eventually his mouth collided with hers. Her rough hands traced his cheek as his hands were holding the back of her neck. That kiss seemed to last forever and finally ended with two breathless lovers. Crimson started to creep up their cheeks as they blushed.

"I should have done that…before..this happened.." Wally said. Artemis tried to grin, "You got that right Baywatch!" Once again, there was negative energy around them.

"How will I shoot my arrows or fight in combat?" asked ARtemis desperately. "We'll find a way. If you fight to win this, then you will become a true hero to all. You can become the hope for blind or whatever people there are in this world who feel lost. I'll help," promised Wally.

Artemis, determined, held her hands together and announced, "I'm going to practice…
