On Tuesday's I have to kill about 7 hours in between classes so I may have time to update there, but we'll see. I'm trying to get my other stories in too with my new ones! So please hold out with me! And read my other stories!R&R
"So you're saying that Nightmare is going to be there waiting?" Batman asked, slightly disbelieving as he looked at the others as if they were crazy.
"It was a message," Sierra told him with an irritated pout.
"A message from who?" Batman asked accusingly, still believing that Sierra was their enemy.
Sierra opened her mouth, but had to close it, not being able to give him an answer. Crystal stepped in front of her sister protectively as she glared Batman down. She had recovered from the fear and acted as if nothing had happened, her body making her forget what her power was doing.
"Enough!" Crystal snapped at Batman, making him jerk back slightly from the surprise of her yelling at him. "I trust my sister and believe what she tells me! If you have a problem with her, then you have a problem with me."
Batman looked at Crystal with fierce eyes before letting out a deep sigh and closing his eyes, giving up on the battle between the two of them. "What can we do?"
"Send me on the mission," Crystal told him, making the others stare at her in disbelief. "Send Wally with me. The two of us together will be able to stop them."
"How can you be sure of that?" Canary asked, crossing her arms and jutting out her hip.
Crystal looked at Wally, making him look over at her. They nodded to one another and their faces cracked into proud smirks as they looked back at the league who was watching them.
"Because me and Wally know one another. The other's moves, the other's powers, the other's way of life. No one could make a better team." Crystal told them, linking her arm around Wally's as they smirked wider.
The league looked at one another, as if reading the other's thoughts and agreeing on a point and a conclusion on what to do. They smiled as they looked at Wally and Crystal, making the two become over-joyed at the obvious answer.
"We'll be close in case it gets out of hand," Wonder woman said, reassuring the two of any doubts.
Crystal's face grew dull as she looked at them with seriousness grave on her face. "My father won't fight fair. If he comes out to us, he'll come after me."
"How can Wally help with that?" Red Tornado asked, completely confused.
"I can fight my father mentally, but as I said, he doesn't fight fair. If he comes after me, he'll send someone else to come after my body." She began to explain, seeing the realization dawn on them. "I need Wally there to protect it,"
"So, you agree to it?" Wally asked, lifting an eyebrow.
"Does it matter if we agree or not?" Superman asked, a sigh escaping his lips.
"Not really, no. But it would help if you did." Crystal said, giving them a smirk.
"It's risky, especially on this mission," Green Arrow said, shaking his head.
Crystal let go of Wally and walked up to them, looking them in the eyes as she peered at them one by one slowly. "I'd like to know what the mission is about anyway." Her voice was dark and sent shivers down some of the league's backs as they watched her intensity.
"To gather information about Nightmare and those he's corresponding with," Batman said, seeing it was fair to tell her the truth about the mission they were sending her on. "Now, I'd like to know what the big deal about your eighteenth birthday is." He said, prying into her life as she did with the mission.
Crystal closed her eyes and concentrated, hoping to put it gently to the others without shocking them completely.
"In my family, on the eighteenth birthday it is called 'the awakening'," She paused and looked at them, seeing how they were so far. "We call it that, because on our eighteenth birthday our powers reach their peak and can become uncontrollable if not prepared. My powers will increase drastically, and when that happens, it is crucial for my mind to decide which side I'm on. Good or bad." She stopped and watched them carefully, seeing the understanding hit them like a rock wall.
"Then we shouldn't let you go after Nightmare!" Flash said, eyes wide and defensiveness on his face. "He'll change you the second you see him!"
"I need to see him so I can further my resolve not to be like him." Crystal said calmly, being stubborn and unwavering in her position.
"I agree with her." Wally said, his surprise not as great as the others. "I'll be there to protect her,"
The league stared at them, conflicted now on what the right choice is. Crystal stared at them with an icy stare, daring them to go against her plan.
"I told you before," Crystal said, shifting her feet so her hip jutted out and she crossed her arms. "It doesn't matter whether you agree with it or not; I will go with this plan, even if I have to fight against you."
"Why are you so determined to put your life in danger?" Superman asked, putting his arms out in wonder.
"Because my father wasn't always bad." She told them. "When he met my mother, he left the darkness. He took care of us. But when my little brother was born, it seemed the darkness could no longer be held back, and it took him over." She looked at Sierra and gave her a sad smile. "Nightmare is not our father. It is the darkness using his body."
Her words struck the league like an arrow as they jolted back. They looked at one another, yet their looks said that they weren't sure what to think about Nightmare being the darkness not the human.
"We have no choice," Green arrow said with a sigh, knowing what the league was going to decide, but knew none of them were going to voice.
"What?!" Megan shouted, flying over to her uncle. "Uncle Jon! You can't let her do it!"
"It's too dangerous!" Artemis said, agreeing with the martian.
"Not if all of you come with us," Crystal said, giving them a smirk and a challenging eye.
"We're in," Robin said with a smirk back, loving that they were getting a job against a big shot like Nightmare.
Crystal walked to him and clasped her hand with his in front of them as they smirked at one another proudly. "Knew you'd come."
The Young Justice circled around Crystal, showing how close their team was. The league couldn't help but let out a proud smirk at the young heroes who were greatly improving on their power and team work.
"Be careful," Batman said, tossing Robin a small communicator. "We'll be in touch, so call us if there are any problems."
"We've got this." Robin pushed off. He stopped and gave a short laugh as the League stared him down with threatening glares. "Call…gotcha."
"Let's go," Crystal said, nodding her head to the team with determination.
"I'm coming also," Roy said, walking through the transporter.
"Me too," Zatanna said with a smile and a wave.
"Can you behave?" Crystal asked him with a raised eyebrow. "I'll have Artemis take care of you if you can't."
Artemis smirked, but blushed, remembering the last time she tried to 'take care' of Roy and ended up in a position that looked like something entirely different. Roy glanced at her and a faint pink tint covered his cheeks as he rubbed his neck and looked at the floor.
"I'll cooperate. You'll be the boss on this mission." Roy said.
"I know I will," Crystal teased, playing with Roy as if he were her little brother. "I want to head out. I'll explain the plan on the way there. Sierra, I want you to stay here." Her sister didn't put up an argument as she nodded her head and waved at them.
They headed out of the cave, following Crystal as she led them to a small lot with seven motorcycle's sitting there.
"I don't need one, I'll just run," Wally said proudly, getting his goggle's ready.
Crystal grabbed his goggles and snapped them on his forehead. "We need to act like normal people. If people see you just run up, they'll know you're not normal."
Wally pouted and groaned, but gave in and took one of the bike's and started it up. The other's followed suit, ready by the time everyone started them up. The wind roared past them as they raced down the highway at amazing speeds.
"Can everyone hear me?" Crystal asked, speaking into her helmet.
"Check,"
"Check,"
"Check,"
"Check,"
"Check,"
"Check,"
Everyone agreed, hearing her clearly.
"Good," She said, speeding past a car. "Me and Wally are going to play the couple at the mansion hotel we are staying at. The rest of you will sneak in and occupy a room nearby. The people working at the hotel are rumored to be in cohorts with Nightmare. If we can get them to spill some of their secrets near us, we'll catch it on a recording."
She dodged another car as it zoomed by her quickly, almost nicking the side of her motorcycle. Wally and Roy flanked her either side, keeping the cars from nearing her any closer.
"How are we going to get the recording?" Robin asked.
"I have my ways," Crystal said with a smirk. "One thing you boys will need to learn is that girl's have a way with making any boy spill their secrets."
"That makes me scared for myself." Kaldur said with a small chuckle.
"Be afraid, be very afraid," Artemis laughed, looking at Kaldur from the side.
"Where are you going to hide the microphone?" Connor asked curiously. "They'll see it in your ear."
Crystal looked over at him and flashed a smile. "You kidding? With boobs as big as mine, you can hide anything in there!"
The guys flushed as they looked at her chest, being shown through the tank top she had on. Crystal raised an eyebrow and sped up, getting her chest out of their sight, and making them snap out of there trance.
"The rest of you will need to group up in go into other rooms, but each of you will have a screen that watches our movements. Robin," She said, addressing the young boy. "You'll be in charge of that. Artemis and Roy, you'll be in charge of spying from a farther distance. Megan I'll need you to keep an eye on the enemies minds, keep them from suspecting us at any time."
"You want me to pry into their minds?" She asked worriedly, knowing that no one liked it when she did so.
"Not pry, just divert them if you get alerted we're about to be found out." Crystal explained. "Kaldur, I'll need you to be able to think of a back-up plan if we get stuck or something goes wrong. Keep the other's calm and doing what they need. And Connor, you'll be the brawns. When it goes down, I'll need you to back us up. It won't be easy fighting against any of them."
"Leave it to me," Connor said with a nod.
"Plus, if they get a little to close and suspicious, I'll let you have some fun and knock them out." Crystal said with a smirk and a small laugh. "We'll split up here. We'll go in first and the rest of you come in at different times. See you then! Remember, blend in!"
Wally and Crystal sped off quickly as the others split up and went different directions to meet up later and not have anyone spotting them all together. Wheel's screeched to a stop as Crystal and Wally stopped their bikes a couple blocks from the hotel.
"Ready?" She asked, taking her helmet off and shaking her head to loosen her hair up.
Wally stared at her before smiling. "I always wanted to see a girl do that in real life."
"Come on," She laughed, linking her hand with his and tugging on her backpack full of belongings. "Oh, we'll need these." She pulled out two rings, one that was a simple gold band with her name etched on it in cursive writing, and the other a smaller band with diamonds lining the top and bottom leaving the middle open and showing his name written in cursive.
"Rings?" He asked, her taking the rings and looking at them.
"We have to look the part after all." She said with a shy smile as she looked away and scratched her cheek, realizing how awkward it was to pull these out.
He looked at them again momentarily, before giving her a big smile and holding her left hand. He slipped on the smaller ring onto her ring finger, watching as she stood with jaw agape and wide eyes. "There! It looks perfect."
She blushed and looked down, before grabbing the band and his left hand, sliding it onto his ring finger and seeing him smile even wider at her fumbling. He began to chuckle as he kissed her forehead, teasing her on her embarrassment. "Shut up."
"Welcome! How may I help you?" The lobbyist asked, giving them a polite smile, but suspicious gaze.
"We heard this was the best hotel! And well…." Crystal acted shy, letting a blush coat her cheeks as she held their entwined hands lightly up to show the rings. "….we just got married and hoped to have our honeymoon here."
The lobbyist furrowed his brows as he stared at the two, suspicion growing in his eyes. "Aren't you two a little young to be married?"
"Well, we also heard you keep who comes here a secret," She said, walking up to the lobbyist. She spotted two men on the other side of the room, reach into their coat pockets, that moved with a bulge in an 'L' shape. She dug in her pocket, seeing the men tense and start to walk towards them, making Wally uneasy. She pulled out a wad of cash and showed it to him. "We're willing to pay if that's the problem. Right now we can't let out parents find us."
The lobbyist stared at the wad of hundred dollar bills. He smiled at her and took the wad. "Don't want to be found? No problem."
"Do you offer meals here too?" She asked looking around.
"Yes, right over there is a small restaurant and bar." He said, counting the wad and reaching up to 2 grand. "With meals, this will pay for a week and a half in the suite. Is that where you'd like it?"
"What do you think sweetie?" Crystal asked, pushing her chest against Wally as she grabbed his shirt.
His arms went around her waist as he kissed her nose and smiled at her. "I don't know…" He looked up at them with a smirk. "Is it sound proof?"
Crystal gasped as she smacked his shoulder. "Oh you!"
Wally laughed, making the security smile knowing and perversely at the girl whose chest was larger than normal girl's her age.
"Yes, that it is. Be as loud as you want." The lobbyist said with a smirk.
"We'll take it!" Wally said, picking Crystal up as her face exploded into red. "Let's get started."
"Do you want us to bring your luggage up?" Security asked, walking over and chuckling darkly.
"Nope, just our backpacks. We had to leave pretty quickly." Wally said, playing into Crystal's story easily. He grabbed the key from the lobbyist.
Wally carried her into the elevator and through the hall, as if he were an animal in heat, and Crystal could see the camera's watched their every move. They played with the camera's as she locked her lips with his, tangling their tongues together. Her hands tangled in his hair as she pulled his head closer to her, and pushed her body against his own while he continued to walk down the hallway to their luxurious room.
The door shut behind them as Wally fumbled to put the pass key into the door correctly while holding onto her. Wally set her down onto her feet as she looked around the room, giving a proud smile, but her chest heaving as she breathed heavily from the lost air.
"We made it," She said, breathless.
"Yeah," Wally said, coughing into his fist before rubbing his neck. "All part of the plan."
Crystal looked at Wally and felt her fingers twitch, wanting to link themselves back into his soft hair and feel his body against hers. She took a step forward and grabbed his shirt, balling it into her hands as she pulled him down towards her.
Their lips crashed together as she breathed him in, feeling an instant response as he sighed into her and pulled her body towards his, arching her back as he leaned forward. He lifted her up off the ground, giving her time to wrap her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck. Her fingers tugged on his hair as she pulled him away, trying to catch her breath from air loss. He took the opening to head towards her neck, kissing down from her ear and to her collarbone where waves of shivers ran up her spine from the contact.
"Wally," She breathed sharply.
He began to walk away from the door as he vaguely remembered where the bed was located as he looked around in the room before. His foot connected with the bed, sending them forward onto the soft sheets and comforter than encompassed them gently. He kicked his shoes off and climbed onto the bed further, helping her remove her shoes and slid up too.
"Stop that," She told him sharply.
He froze, breaking from her skin as she pulled him back away from her. His shock was only momentary as she pulled him back towards her, seizing his lips once again in a fervent kiss that heated her core and spread throughout her body.
Wally could feel her heart pounding in her chest…or was that his?...He wasn't sure, but their hearts were both beating like a hummingbird's wings inside of them. He could smell the cherry blossoms on her, and feeling the heat lifting from her body as he ran his hands over her sides, lifting her shirt up to just below her chest.
Crystal cracked her eyes open and saw Wally's green eye's piercing into her, making her gasp at the intensity from them as they stared at her. Her hands roamed down his back and slid under his shirt, sliding her fingers up his stomach and chest, feeling the toned muscle's move beneath her fingers in delight.
He lifted his arms and threw the shirt to the ground, forgetting the discarded clothing before it even left him. Both their hands made quick work as they undid each other's button's and zippers. Crystal slid her hands along his hips before resting them over his butt under his pants. She grunted in pleasure as she could feel his tight glut muscle's tense and move under her touch. Of course with all that running his butt would be perfect.
While she was doing that, Wally slid his hand under her pants and pulled them slightly as they hung carelessly on her hips, showing the edge of her panties. His hand delved farther as it slid over her hip and ran along the inside of her hips, making her squirm under his touch.
We made it in.
Crystal and Wally broke apart quickly as they looked around the room in suspicion. Their breathing was heavy, and it was hard to hear anything over their beating hearts. Crystal groaned in realization as she reached her hand up and put it to her ear, pressing on the button.
"Roger that," Crystal sighed, trying to calm herself down.
"Perfect timing Robin," Wally said sarcastically into his own.
"Thanks," Robin said, not catching the irritation in Wally's voice.
Crystal opened her eyes again and her breathing stopped as she looked up at Wally who still loomed over her, watching her every move.
"We're next," Megan said, "What do you want us to do?"
"Just head to the rooms for now," Crystal answered, grabbing Wally's neck and kissing him quickly. "Artemis and Roy, Robin will let you into his room with Zatanna. Megan, let Kaldur into your room."
She could feel Wally's arms wrapping around her waist tightly, making her arch her back into him. Her reality began to fade as she desperately tried to remember what she was saying.
"What then?" Zatanna asked.
Crystal opened her mouth, but was stopped as Wally kissed her. "Stop," She whispered to him, pulling away from him. She grabbed his arms and flipped him over, straddling his waist as she looked down at him with a mischievous smirk. "Contact me after everyone is in the rooms." She looked down at Wally and giggled at the smirk on his face that showed his pride. "We don't have long,"
"I'll have to deal with what Ican get," He teased, pulling her face down to him gently, continuing their kiss from before.
