First off, I wanna thank Simply-B.A for the review and the encouragement-threat to continue. Okay, so the last OC that appeared will make an official entrance a little later than the rest, but fret not, because sh*t's going down!

October 5, 2016- Mt. Justice

Kaldur, still emotionally exhausted, stood before Blue Beetle and Imp-Kid Flash- while trying to look stoic.

"Your mission- assigned from Batman- is mainly to keep a girl away from Luthor."

He said suppressing a yawn. He tapped the air, where the image of the brunette girl appeared.

"Name's Jannet Acer, daughter of a rich businessman in Gotham. You will enter her school as new students and try to get close enough to her to be able to protect her. The League is paying for an apartment as near as possible to her house, but you'll have to cover personal expenses yourselves. Also, I need you to monitor all her movements, in and out of her house, and search for any signs that she knows more than we give her credit for." Kaldur rubbed the back of his neck. Despite the lack of missions, he'd forgotten what leading a bunch of teens and emotional wrecks was like.

"School starts on Monday, but you're taking the first few days off to spy on her. Find her interests, likes and dislikes so you can become friends faster." He explained further.

Blue Beetle merely nodded, while Kid Flash cocked his head to the side.

"What's Luthor gotta do with her?"

"Luthor is her biological father but so far we have no intel that she knows as much, or who her mother is. The League suspects she is a biologically engineered weapon with his DNA."

"And when are we leaving?" Jaime questioned.

"Tonight." Kaldur answered and made Jannet's image disappear.

"Soooo…." Jean started, twirling a strand of her red hair around in her finger, "When did you start going out with Fred?" She asked playfully.

We were both lying on my bed, doing our homework. I looked up from the laptop screen and gave her the most innocent and confused look I could muster.

"I'm not going out with Fred." I pointed.

"But you want to!"

"So? I'm not in any hurry to start dating." I countered." Besides, I barely know him. He could be the biggest asshole I've ever met!"

"You're so afraid of being let down, you never take any risks." Jean muttered and opened her notebook.

"I'm not afraid of being let down! I'm just not interested in some things…" I protested. Jean looked at me from over her notebook. "Oh, really? You've been pretty reluctant for pretty much everything. So either you're uninterested in everything, or you're just a coward."

Her phone rang before I could answer.

"Oh, it's Brian!" She said excitedly and began texting him back.

Brian was a college student that Jean had met over the summer. And, Jean being Jean, she didn't want to even listen to me when I told he was to old for her, or that he'd eventually cheat on her.

The light blush subsided from her cheeks as she turned back to me.

"But really, Jannet, you need to take some risks. You can't always pay your way out of everything." She said as she tossed her phone aside.

"Anyway." I sighed. "What did you get for exercise B?"

October 6,2016- Gotham City

The apartment was large enough for Bart and me, and it was a wonder the League still had money left after the reconstruction of the Cave.

Bart, of course, had already changed to his costume because of the ring his grandfather had given him. Like his own, it had the Flash's symbol on the top and when pressed, the Kid Flash costume jumped out.

"Are you coming or what, hermano?" Bart called.

"Yeah, just a moment." I sighed. Kaldur had made the mission sound like we weren't going to get any rest until it was over, and that was probably true.

I pulled my hoodie off and let the armor spread across my body.

Tonight would be a long night.
