I keep forgetting the disclaimer! I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians, or Young Justice. I wish they would join the Dark Side... MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Chapter 2:
Wally slowed as he and Artemis entered the Cave. She jumped out of his arms and swatted him on the head.
"Nice, Baywatch. Go slower next time." Wally pouted.
"We had to go fast! Otherwise, they would have followed us!"
"Wally. Shut up."
"Why?" Wally's eye twitched.
"I'm calling Roy."
"…Fine." Artemis smirked.
Roy picked up on the second ring.
"What?" His tone was the snippy, why-the-hell-are-you-calling-me-right-now kind. Artemis replied with an even snippier I'm-calling-for-an-important-reason-so-shut-up kind of tone.
"Get your butt over here. They need us in Manhattan." He was silent.
"I'll be there in five." He hung up. Artemis sighed.
"Wally, go get something to eat. We're gonna need it."
*Line Break!*
Annabeth could hardly contain her excitement. But dread was mixed in there, too. Excitement because she hadn't seen her sister in several years. But dread for the reason she came. Clarisse fidgeted next to her, her ADHD getting to her. Annabeth's thoughts were interrupted by Clarisse speaking.
"I don't see why we're waiting by this… This phone booth," she sneered.
"You'll see," was all Annabeth would say. Clarisse was about to reply, when she was interrupted by a "Recognize, Artemis B07, Kid Flash B04, Speedy B08." Clarisse's mouth hung open as a red-headed boy yelled back, "IT'S RED ARROW!" The other red-head snickered. Annabeth looked smug.
"That's why we're here." The two boys finally noticed that they had an audience. The first red-headed boy started to glare at the blonde.
"Why are they here?" Annabeth could tell he was pissed.
The blonde replied, "Relax, they know." He didn't stop glaring. The blonde ignored him, and tackled Annabeth, squealing "Annie!" Annabeth smiled. Clarisse pouted.
"Thanks, I feel so loved."
Artemis got back up. Then she tackled Clarisse.
"Riss!" Annabeth smiled.
"So using that one…" she mumbled.
"Shut up, Princess." Was all Clarisse could get out.
"So," Annabeth started, unintentionally saving Clarisse," introduce me to your friends."
Artemis got off Clarisse.
"The short red-head is Wally, and Mr. Grumpy Butt is Roy." She turned to Wally and Roy. "The blonde is my sister, Annabeth, and the brunette is Clarisse." Annabeth smiled. That was the spunky, sarcastic girl she knew! Annabeth quickly sobered, remembering why they were here.
"Come on." She started to walk away. "They're waiting for us."
*Line Break!*
Everyone was starting to get impatient. Percy had called them here for a reason, right? So why was he waiting? Percy would not start without Annabeth, though. When the camp vans had pulled up, Annabeth was the first out, dragging Clarisse behind her. That had confused Percy. Aren't they supposed to be mortal enemies? Yet, they had disappeared together, and that was nearly ten minutes ago. The group of demigods was starting to fidget, thanks to the ADHD. Travis was starting to complain.
"Why are we just standing here? Let's go!" But Percy would not budge.
"We are not starting without Annabeth."
Just as he said that, he spotted Annabeth and Clarisse down the street with two red-heads, and another blonde. He watched as the shorter of the red-heads look ahead and seemed to recognize some of the kids in the group. Percy blinked, as the kid seemed to disappear. He was startled out of his reverie by a sudden scream and laugh.
"Wally! Don't do that!" Conner screamed at the red-head, apparently named Wally. He had snuck up behind him and scared him.
"That's what you get bro, for trying to glue my hand to the doorknob last time we met. But you should have seen the one Arty pulled on my friend! She convinced a girl he went out with to say that she was pregnant, and he was the father! It was hil-ar-ious!" Percy was confused. Did this Wally know Conner? Travis and Conner burst out laughing, as did the rest of the Hermes cabin. "Man…," Travis gasped, "I… wished I could see his face!"
"Yup," Percy decided, "Wally is definitely a son of Hermes. But what about the rest…?" his thoughts trailed off.
The rest of the group had arrived. Annabeth came to a stop next to him. The rest mingled with the other demigods.
"The shorter red-head is Wally, the taller is Roy, and the blonde is my sister, Artemis." She whispered to him. He had decided that Roy was a son of Apollo, as he was talking to Michael Yew. Artemis was a daughter of Athena, as she was talking to Malcolm Shelve, son of Athena.
"Weren't you going to say something, Seaweed Brain?" Annabeth whispered.
"Oh…Right." Percy cleared his throat. Everyone's attention immediately snapped to him.
"So… Right. We need to…" (I don't feel like writing the rest of the speech. I also don't have the book with me. So sue me.) "And we can't take no for an answer. So let's go." He concluded. He led the group into the building.
*Line Break!*
"- And you should be sorry too! You could have saved him, and you didn't!" Hermes was right in the middle of his rant, when a sudden change came over him, as if somebody flipped a switch in him. "I should be going. But one last thing." He turned to Wally, who was near the front. "Nice job last week. You got him good." Wally blushed, seemingly knowing what Hermes was talking about. "Nice job, Kid." Only Wally, Roy, and Artemis caught the double meaning. Hermes flashed away. (Hehe… See what I did there? No? Aww, come on!)
*Line Break!*
Percy, Annabeth, Wally, Artemis, and Roy were the first off the elevator. The first thing they saw were four teenagers. They seemed to be waiting for Wally, Roy, and Artemis, and they did not look happy. Wally and Artemis groaned. "We're in trouble, aren't we?" Wally asked.
