Father's Love

Chapter 6: Thank you

"What is it you wanted to talk about Zatanna?" Connor asked his fellow teammate.

"One moment," Zatanna said, making a sound proof barrier around them. "Ok, Connor. I'm not supposed to say this but you really need to be cautious around Superman and Batman when you're with Luthor." Connor looked at her, shocked.

"How did-" Before Connor could finished his sentence he was interrupted.

"I know because I am the one who created the rings Connor," Zatanna said.

"Wait, why are you working with Luthor?" Connor asked.

"I just want to see my dad, Connor. Luther said he could help me if he let you get closer to him."

"So he's using me!"

"No Connor, no. Luthor honestly loves you, otherwise he would never go to such lengths." Connor kept his face unreadable as he walked away from Zatanna heading towards the beach.

"Connor, please wait!" Everyone in the Mt. Justice heard Zatanna yell.

"I just need to calm down."

The team looked at Connor then Zatanna.

"Alright," Zatanna murmured.

"What was that all about?" Robin asked Zatanna as she came to sit down next to him.

"Nothing." Zatanna said.

Artemis looked out into the streets of Gotham as she saw a flash of red and yellow run by her house. She blinked twice as she sighed.

"Hey, Artemis. It's fancy meeting you here," Kid Flash commented. Artemis nearly jumped out the window but KF pushed her back inside. "Sorry didn't mean to surprise you."

"It's ok. Why are you all the way here in Gotham?"

"Oh, I'm just on my way home." Artemis laughed at this.

"But you live in the other direction, Wally."

Wally laughed nervously.

"What are you really doing here?"

"I was wondering if you would go out with me sometime."

Artemis looked at him shock before nodding her head.

"Really?"

"Yes, Wally. I'll go on a date with you!"

"Alright see you later, Artemis." And with that Kid Flash sped off to his house.

Zatanna and Connor sat on the couch in silence, that is until Robin walked into the room.

"Hey Zatanna, Connor you want to go to Gotham with me?" Robin asked.

"Sure I would love to," Zatanna replied.

"What about you Connor?" Robin asked.

"Sure, whatever," Connor said.

Connor sighed as he watched Zatanna and Robin blush, laugh, and smiled. To put it bluntly Connor felt like the third wheel. Sighing once again, he decided to stray away from the couple and was about to head back to Mt. Justice when he heard a noise coming from the alley way. Curious, Connor walked into the alley to see a woman in her twenties being assaulted. Rushing over to her rescue, he knocked the man to the ground, subduing him quietly before looking over at the frightened young woman.

"Are you alright?" Connor asked, lifting the woman off the ground and onto her feet.

"Yes,I'm alright.Thanks for saving me," the woman said.

"Your welcome," Connor said.They both left the alley way and headed their separate ways.
