Chapter 4:

"Can you remind me why we're out here again?" Kid Flash whined for the tenth time in an hour.

"You and Superboy said you couldn't see any hostile actions from these monsters unless they were provoked, and you said they were brothers but they were all different monsters. Not only can we learn from these 'brothers' but they might be valuable asset to the team and league," Artemis explained for what felt like the thousandth time.

"But I also said they really didn't like the league. They probably don't want to be bothered," Kid Flash reminded.

"If we don't pose a threat, you don't think they would attack us would they?" Miss Martian asked getting slightly worried.

"The two little ones, I highly doubt. The wolf, no idea. And the other one… maybe?" Kid shrugged.

"Shut up Kid Mouth! You just don't want us to go so you making it sound like they will attack us," Artemis accused.

"No! I just—"

"Shhhhh, do you hear that?" Superboy cut off Kid Flash.

Everyone quieted down in time to hear a scream. They all rushed toward the scream. Aqualad held up a hand to signal the team to hold up. They hid in the bushes and noticed a huge wolf with a paw on a man's chest, about ten other men scattered around the area. The men were only knocked out, thankfully, but the wolf seemed to be interrogating the unlucky one to still be awake.

"Who sent you?" the wolf asked in its deep voice none to gently.

The man didn't answer; he was a blathering mess under the wolf.

The wolf pressed more weight on the man, "Who sent you?"

"I-I don't know. H-He was wearing a mask, I-I never saw his face. Please don't eat me!"

"Was it a hero?" the wolf spat.

"I-I don't know, if it w-was it was none I recognized. That's all I know, I swear! Just don't hurt me! I won't tell anyone you're here!"

"Now we both know that is a lie. Get out of here," the wolf lifted his paw and let the man run away.

The team was shocked, most werewolves would jump at the chance to kill a human, yet this one killed none, even when he was clearly attacked.

"You can come out now, I won't hurt you."

Everyone jumped at the voice and that he was clearly talking to them. Aqualad slowly stood and walked to the wolf, who still had his back to them. The rest of the team followed, not wanting to send their leader out with no backup.

Aqualad stopped a few feet from the wolf, "how did you know we were here?"

"I heard you a mile away, but your smell gave away who you were," the wolf replied.

Everyone tensed when the wolf got up and faced them. His striking blue eyes stood out against his pitch black fur.

"Why have you come here?" he growled.

"Well, you see, about that, we wanted to know if you kinda wanted to," Kid Flash stuttered.

"If you wanted to join us," Aqualad said politely.

"The junior monster hunters? No way," Jason said from behind them.

"Jason, what are you doing out here?" Dick asked.

"I had to make sure you didn't get yourself stabbed again Dickey boy," Jason smirked.

The team just stood quietly, not sure if they should interrupt. The new comer was tall, with dark hair with a white stripe in the front and green eyes, he had well defined muscles even when he looked only 15.

Dick glared and turned back in to his human form, "Hey the first time I was saving your sorry butt and then it was the Justice League."

Jason walked up to Dick and looked down at him, "shorty."

"Shut up," Dick pouted.

The team was surprised to see that the werewolf was shorter than the other. The werewolf looked like a young man, maybe 17, with black hair and bright blue eyes. His build was slighter than his companion's.

"Are you older than him?" Kid Flash asked Jason.

"Nope this is my big brother," Jason smirked, slinging an arm around Dick's shoulders.

"Don't encourage him," Dick mumbled.

Jason just smirked and laughed at his brother until they heard a small cough. They all looked over to the source to find two other children.

"See? This is why when I'm not there you stay with them! They could have walked in to a big fight or something!" Dick scolded his big little brother.

"Argh you say that every single time! Why don't you stay with them for once?"

"I'm the only one who can hunt!"

"I got food last time… eventually."

"Uh-huh," Dick said crossing his arms over his chest.

Somehow the youngest got all the way over to Dick without the team noticing and tugged on his pant leg, "Grayson, I'm hungry and I don't like them," he said pointing to the team.

Dick looked down then over to the team, "oh sorry, I kind of forgot you guys were there. Sorry you had to see that squabble," he said rubbing the back of his neck.

"Ttt, Grayson you are hopeless."

"Dick I'm hungry, can we go hunting now?" Tim asked.

Whatever Dick was going to say was cut off by a loud grumbling. Kid Flash turned as red as his hair and wrapped an arm around his stomach.

Dick smiled, "there I go forgetting about you again. You guys hungry? You're welcome to join us."

Jason punched him in the arm, "what? Are you crazy? They are the enemy!"

"Ow, bad shoulder, remember. They are not, they are-"

"Quit your whining Todd, they can come if they wish," Damian said.

"See Dami agrees with me," Dick smiled and hugged a protesting 8-year-old.

When Damian finally pried Dick off him the brothers led the teens to the cave while Dick transformed and went hunting for more food.

AN: The team is getting involved now! let me know what you thought. Suggestions are welcome! Till next time ;)
