I don't own Young Justice or Leverage, they all belong to… whoever they belong to…

"Conner?"

The boy looked up as he heard his name. In front of him stood a beautiful redhead girl, smiling brightly as she saw that it was him. "Oh, hey M'gann."

Her smile faltered a bit as she took the seat opposite of him. "It's Megan in public… what are you doing here?"

He shrugged and glanced around, of course she was surprised to see him; coffee shops weren't exactly his thing. Plus the fact that they hadn't exactly been on speaking terms for a while… "I have a… appointment later on."

"Oh." Her smile completely disappeared as she realized what he was talking about. "I thought you were done with that."

He arched an eyebrow as his eyes met hers. "Like you are?" He remembered when he'd told her that, it had been five months ago.

"I-" She began, only to fall silent again as she looked down at the table in embarrassment. "You're right, sorry. I just… I meant that… nevermind."

He couldn't help but reach across the table and grasp her hand in his, offering her a small smile. "It's fine. So… you were shopping, I'm guessing?" He didn't need to ask, the bags surrounding the table were proof enough.

She bit her lip. "Yep, I had some spare time on my hands after I…" Her eyes went wide as she realized what she was about to say, facepalming. "Hello Megan, you don't want to know about any of that!"

His blue eyes sparkled in amusement. "Still with the catchphrase? And you're right… I don't think I want to know."

They both fell silent afterwards, the young boy sipping from his coffee as he scanned her with an unreadable expression. She didn't look back up. "It's been a while…"

"I know."

A sigh escaped her lips and her shoulders slumped. "I'm so sorry, I never mea-"

"It's fine, M'gann. Besides, I think I should be the one apologizing." She looked back up at him with hopeful eyes, eyes that he missed terribly.

"So, friends again?" She asked softly.

He nodded slightly. "Always."

A grin broke out on her face and she jumped up and embraced him in a tight hug. "Oh, how I've missed you Kon!"

"I've missed you too, M'gann." He replied as his arms wrapped tightly around her – thought not tight enough to kill her. Again, he had to watch the strength; he didn't want to end up hurting his precious martian.

"So, what brings you to Dakota?" She pulled away, sitting back down. "It's not exactly your territory, you know?"

A shrug was the only answer he had to offer. Even he didn't know what he was doing there. "Someone told me to come here, I didn't really bother to ask. And you? I thought you were sticking to Happy Harbor."

"I thought it was time for a vacation…"

He gave her a skeptic glance, crossing his arms over his chest. "A… vacation from a vacation?"

The girl bit her lip nervously, once again refusing to look up and answer. He sighed as realization dawned onto him.

"M'gann…"

"It's Megan." She hissed underbreath, resting her head on her palm.

"You need to stop this." He whispered, low enough for only her to hear. "Someone is going to catch you eventually."

"Have you that little faith in me?" She replied, glancing back up at him.

"I-" He was cut off by the sound of a cell phone beeping. "Hold on." He turned away, placing the device to his ear.

"Exit the shop at once." A voice ordered. "To your right there will be a rundown apartment, go in. I'll be waiting."

He turned back and put the phone away. "I have to… go." Confusion clouded his eyes as he looked around and realized the girl was nowhere to be seen, on the table was a small scrap of paper. Conner reluctantly picked it up.

I'll be around, call me sometime.

On the back of the card was her number. "M'gann…" He muttered softly, placing the paper in his pocket and turning away.

Just as he'd been told, a tall rundown building stood in front of him. Reluctantly, he entered through the broken down door.

The only sound was that of his heavy footsteps and he wondered if there was anyone there. Just as he was about to give up and walk out, he was thrown off his feet by a heavy force slamming into him. The clone growled, shoving whatever it was off of himself and standing up again.

A loud growl escaped the giant gorilla's mouth as it readied another attack. He was ready for the beast this time though, and managed not to get knocked back again. Grabbing the ape by the arms and throwing him onto the wall, the boy yelled in frustration. "I hate monkeys!"

"Monsieur Mallah is hardly a monkey." A robotic voice interrupted.

Conner quickly spun around, only to meet with the Brain. "I'm guessing you called me here." He snapped angrily.

"That is correct." The thing wheeled closer to him as the gorilla stood up and walked back over to them, glaring threateningly at the boy.

"Well?" The boy crossed his arms and waited impatiently.

"I know about you, Project Kr. And… I know your father will be delighted to hear that you have been found."

Conner clenched his fists. "If you tell him anything-"

A robotic chuckle escaped the thing. "Calm down, I assure you. Mr. Luthor doesn't have to know… of course, there is a price for this secrecy."

"What kind?" He demanded angrily, his eyes narrowed at the Brain.

"I need your help, Mr. Kent. I must retrieve something that has been stolen from me and you are the only one who can help me get it."
