Wally groaned as he sank deeper into the couch, "I'm so bored isn't there anything to do around here?" He asked no one particular.
No one gave him an answer, sighing he looked up at the other Team members.
Robin was on his computer, probably hacking into the Pentagon or something again.
Artemis was sharpening arrows, half of which were probably going to be wasted firing at him after he insulted her. Every once and a while her phone would go off and she'd smile as she texted somebody, probably Ethan, making Wally's teeth clench with jealousy.
Kaldur was reading a book, Wally tried to read the title, but it must've been Atlantean, because all he saw were weird symbols.
M'gann and Superboy had gone to work on Conner's bike, Wolf and Sphere had gone with them.
"Seriously?" He asked. "No one else here is bored?"
"It's not my fault you didn't bring something to do Baywatch," Artemis snorted.
"Artemis has a point my friend," Kaldur pointed out as he went back to his book.
Wally sighed and looked over at his friend, "Robin do you—"
"Nope busy," Robin said simply.
"Busy doing what hacking into the CIA again?" Wally asked sarcastically.
""Of course not Batman would kill me for do something that easy. I'm hacking into the Watchtower."
"Dude I'll plan your funeral," Wally told his best friend. "But really you guys, can't we do something like I don't know what a movie or something."
"Oh I just got a movie from the library we could watch! It looked good, it had animals on it!" Everyone jumped as M'gann's bubbly voice filled the room, surprised at the sudden appearance of the green girl, and Superboy who followed after her Wolf and Sphere at his heels.
"Finally somebody who will save me from boredom!" Wally cried, jumping up and hugging M'gann before rushing off to make popcorn.
For a moment M'gann just floated there in shock, as Superboy glared at Wally, before floating down to the ground. "The movie should already be in the DVD player. I was going to watch it earlier, but Conner already was watching TV."
She explained kneeling down to turn on the DVD player and TV.
Wally returned with the popcorn, handing it out to everyone, as the movie began to play, the Circle of Life, playing loudly into the room, before sitting down on the couch.
M'gann and Superboy followed, sitting down, Conner's arm around M'gann, as Sphere left the room and Wolf put his head on Conner's lap, licking the boy's hand softly until Superboy began to pet him.
For a moment everyone just continued to do what they were doing, listening to the movie in the background, before slowly arrows were placed back in the quiver and Artemis leaned against the couch looking up at the screen.
Robin's holocomputer flickered and blinked out as the boy leaned towards the TV, watching the small lion dodge the laughing hyenas that darted after him.
Kaldur's book was set down, as the small lion began "roaring" at the hyena's in desperation. Trying to save himself and his young friend, before his father finally appeared, roaring loudly.
"We're pals right dad?" Everyone watched as Simba bounced around on his dad, before asking the question. "And you'll always be there right?"
Mufassa seemed to age a little, trying to decide how to answer his son, before showing him the stars and telling him that they were the kings of old that he would always be watching over him.
Wally sat on the edge of his seat eyes widening as Scar led Simba down to the small gorge as he remembered a very important part of this movie.
As Mufassa dived into the stampede to save his son, Wally stood up quickly.
"Hey maybe we should watch something else," he said quickly, eyes darting towards Dick.
"Why Baywatch you scared?" Artemis snorted, leaning back against the coach.
"No," Wally sneered. "I just think that this is a kids' movie, we should watch something more exciting."
"Scar help me," Mufassa groaned, as his claws scraped helplessly against the stone.
No, no, no, Wally thought quickly in desperation.
Everyone except Wally watched as Scar threw Mufassa over the edge, as Simba screamed, but Wally was watching Robin.
Robin's eyes were wide behind his mask, his face pale, his body was shaking visibly, as his hands clutched the arms of the chair he was sitting on.
M'gann's eyes were wide and teary as she hid her face in Conner's shirt, as Wolf whined nervously unsure of what was going on.
Artemis sat there, she'd seen the movie before she was used to it, but it didn't stop her from hating the villain of the movie.
Kaldur just sat there in shock, no one noticed that Robin was crying, no one, but Wally.
"Hey uh…Rob will you help me with something real fast?" Wally asked nervously determined to get his friend away without revealing things that shouldn't be revealed.
Robin just sat there frozen in horror, the whites of his mask huge round ovals, before he stood up rapidly and ran out of the room.
"Rob!" Wally screamed as he began to chase after him only to stop as Artemis snorted.
"What got into him? I mean he's faced the Joker, and he's scared of a little kids cartoon. So much for the brave Boy Wonder of Gotham."
Before the blond knew what was happening Wally was next to her a fist inches from her face, green eyes gleaming with protective anger.
"Don't you ever say that," he growled, watching as Artemis's eyes widened in shocked fright. "He is the bravest person I know. You have no idea what he has gone through, what he's seen."
Wally ignored the tension building in the room, ignore the lion that now sang his worries and pains away on the TV screen, no one made fun of his best friend. No one.
"He's been doing this since he was nine. He's been kidnapped more times than I can count, he's been tortured more than anyone one of us, but he still keeps coming back. He's always there to do it the next day. He always keeps fighting."
He bent down until he was nose to nose with Artemis, green eyes staring into grey. "And if you ever say that he's not brave I will personally make sure you go through what he goes through on a daily basis."
Artemis sat there staring up into the normal green iris's that had taken on foreign anger, his glare almost rivaled Batman's as he scowled at her.
"Wally?" M'gann said softly. "Stop it you're scaring me."
"My friend perhaps you should leave," Kaldur spoke calmly, hiding his shock, as he placed a hand on the speedsters shoulder.
Wally stood back up, shrugging off Kaldur's hand and looked around at everyone, scowling, "I'm going to find Rob." He turned glaring at everyone. "Don't follow me."
Wally wasn't sure how long he ran around The Cave, after he checked the Zeta Beams making sure Robin hadn't left, of course when the small boy didn't want to be found he did a pretty good job of hiding.
Wally finally found him outside on the mountain, huddled in a small cavern, his black cape wrapped around him protecting him from the falling snow.
"Rob? Robin?" He whispered softly to the boy. When he didn't reply he switched tactics. "Dick?"
This time the raven haired boy looked up, his mask was missing and watery blue eyes meant his soft green ones.
"Wally?" The boy choked.
"Hey man I'm right here," Wally whispered moving towards his best friend.
"It hurts, it hurts so much," Robin whispered huddling further into his small crack he'd used as shelter.
"I know," Wally whispered softly. "I know, but I'm sure that they're proud of you."
"Really?" The small boy asked. "Promise?"
"Promise," the speedster didn't hesitate a second, or a millisecond for that matter and he watched as Robin searched his eyes for lies, before finding none.
"Thanks Wally," Dick whispered. "I needed that."
"I know man," Wally whispered softly pulling the small boy away from the cavern he was hiding in. "Now why don't we go inside before you freeze."
Dick let out a weak smile, before it turned nervous, "What about the others?"
Wally froze, "they won't give us any trouble, but for the time being we should avoid them."
Dick's eyes narrowed as he placed his mask back on, "Walls? What did you do?"
"I sorta um…kinda…."
"Wally," Robin's tone turned threatening, but was laced with humor.
"I kinda ," Wally spoke quickly.
"Alright this is a start, but how about slower," Robin laughed as his friend's face turned bright red and he cleared his throat.
"I kinda chewed Artemis out for making fun of you," he mumbled. "I also scared M'gann…and kinda left everyone hanging."
Wally watched in surprise as Robin laughed, "Seriously? Dude the idea is to have the bad guys be afraid of you not our Teammates."
"Hey it's not my fault the bad guys aren't scared of me!" Wally cried before back tracking. "No wait that came out wrong."
By this point Robin was laughing hysterically as he stumbled back towards the Cave's hanger door. "I can't believe that you just—"The younger boy couldn't finish as he collapsed inside the hanger."
"Ya ya ya, very funny," Wally said smiling. "Glad to have you back bro."
Robin just smiled.
Everything was okay, but if there was one thing Wally was sure that they'd never do again was watch Lion King.
So what did you think? Too OOC? I liked it :D
