Chapter 1: A Busy Day for You and Me
"Kent, Lois. You guys will be doing report on Lex Luthor's party this Friday," Their boss told them as he went back into his office.
"What is he throwing a party for this time?" Clark asked.
Lois turned toward him and sighed. "Where do you live? In cave? This party is for announcing his successor," Lois said. Clark sat there in shock as he gaped at Lois. Lois turned around and laughed at the face Clark was making.
"Wait, do you know what the name of his successor is?" Clark asked.
Lois shook her head. "He said he will reveal who it is at the party only," Lois said.

"Sir, your mail has arrived," Mary, his secretary, said, bringing in a whole basket of letters.
"Thank you, Mary. You may go now," Lex Luthor said, picking up the first letter. "Bill, death threat, bill, death threat, bill, Connor," Lex Luthor said, ignoring all the other letters and picking up Connor's letter. He quickly opened the letter and read the content of it then tossed it in the shredder. "This is going to be a very interesting weekend," Luthor murmured to himself before continuing to look through the mail.

"Team you have a mission," Batman said over the monitor.
"What is it about?" Robin asked his mentor.
"It a top notch mission, Canary will fill you in on the details." Batman said before the screen went black and they headed over to the briefing room.
"Ok Team, listen up," Canary said once they were in the briefing room. "It is a very simple mission, all you need to do is to guard this girl, Akane Kaiba," Canary said.
"What is so special about this girl?" Aqualad asked, looking at the screen that showed a sixteen year old girl with blonde hair wearing a sweat shirt and some pants.
"That girl is one of daughters of the most powerful people in Japan. Also, her father has sent her here with microchip that is said to have blue prints of some kind in her necklace" Canary said.
"Why would her father send her here without any protection?" Wally asked, munching on a bag of chips.
"He has send numerous bodyguards but this young girl has been shelter her whole life and she always manages to elude her bodyguards, so it's no surprise she can do it now," Canary informed them.
"So how exactly are we going to keep tabs on this girl?" Artemis asked.
"You guys will be going undercover and befriending her until Friday when she goes to meet with the League," Canary replies.
"Wow this is so exciting," Miss M. says squealing.
"You will find her near Star City at the fair, that is all," Canary said.
The whole team got up and got ready to leave. "Everyone ready?" Robin asked once they all were wearing civilian clothing and headed towards the zeta platforms.

"Now, how exactly are we supposed to find this girl?" Wally asked. That's when someone who was running towards them bumped into Connor causing him to stumble.
"I'm extremely sorry about that," The girl they recognized as Luna Kaiba said, holding her hand out to Superboy. Superboy took the hand that was offered to him. "Hi, I'm Akane. It's nice to meet you," Luna said brightly.
"Names Connor, Connor Kent," Superboy said. "These are my friends Dick, Wally, Megan, Kaldur. and Artemis," Connor said.
"It nice to meet you all. Do you guys want to go ride some rides with me?" Luna asked.
"Sure lets go," Megan said, grabbing Luna's hand and pulling her towards the nearest ride. They continued to ride the rides and play games.
"It's getting late I should be heading back to the hotel," Luna said. Luna sighed as she and her new friends walked out of the fair grounds.
"Is something wrong, Luna?" Artemis asked.
"No, but this has been the funnest days in my life. When I go back home, I will go back to being locked up in the house." Luna said.
"Why are you locked inside your house?" Dick asked.
"Ever since my mom and my twin brother were killed on the same day while taking us to the park when I was six, I was never allowed to go outside without bodyguard. Since then, my own father has not even seen or spoken to me in person," Luna explained.
"Wow, that must be rough," Kaldur said.
"It is, but I hope one day my father will finally come to see me," Luna said, smiling brightly at her new friends as the reached the hotel she was staying in.
"It has been a pleasure meeting you all," Luna said.
"Do you want to hang out with us tomorrow?" Connor asked.
The girl's face lit up almost instantly. "Yeah I would love to," Luna said, before running inside the hotel.
"Come on Guys let all head home," Dick said, walking over to the bioship.
