Megan and Conner woke up from their peaceful slumber early the next morning. After they each bathed and changed, the couple sat down and ate breakfast, which consisted of fluffy, warm pancakes and waffles smothered in maple syrup. They then found a comfortable place on the couch and watched a movie while waiting for the rest of their teammates to arrive.
At around 12pm, the familiar voice of the zeta tubes announced the first arrival. "Recognized, Aqualad B02."
"Hi Kaldur!" Megan smiled sweetly and floated to greet her team leader.
"Hello Megan, Conner. Has anyone else arrived yet?"
"Nope, you're the first. The meeting is only at 2pm after all."
Kaldur nodded and excused himself to the cave's library, in search of another book to read. Megan decided to begin cooking lunch. She used her mind to gather the ingredients and started by breaking a couple of eggs into a bowl. Conner was busy watching the news since he didn't really feel like watching the interesting fuzzy channel today.
About 10 minutes before 2, the team's speedster and archer entered the cave as well. They were both greeted by an appetizing aroma.
"That smells awesome!" Wally slobbered, and in a second was standing next to Megan in front of the oven. "What's cooking, beautiful?"
"I'm making pies!" she replied cheerfully. "It's around lunchtime and I thought that everyone would like something to eat."
"I sure hope you've made a lot Megan, knowing how Kid garbage disposal here is." Artemis smirked at the blushing speedster. "Anyways, where's Dick? I thought the boy wonder would be here already."
"He called earlier and said he was going to be a little late." Wally answered after his cheeks had returned to its original colour.
"What could he be doing? It's a Sunday." Artemis raised her eyebrow.
Conner was still watching the news when a certain black haired, blue-eyed boy appeared on the screen, standing confidently beside a tall, well-groomed man. Both dressed in expensive looking suits and were smiling at the hordes of reporters surrounding the stage below them.
The image on the TV monitor changed, now showing a blonde haired woman holding a microphone.
"Good afternoon viewers. I'm Vicki Vale reporting live from Gotham city, where billionaire philanthropist, Bruce Wayne, has just donated a million dollars to the Breast cancer foundation as the Mother's Day gift to the people of Gotham." She said cheerfully to the camera.
The team turned their heads, their attention now on the TV and the story it was broadcasting. After all, a million dollars was a lot of money. Probably not to someone as famous and rich as Bruce Wayne, but to normal people like them, that was a whole lotta cash to just give away. Though it was for a good cause. "That's really nice of him." Megan commented while watching. Kaldur came into the room and greeted Wally and Artemis before turning to the monitor. He wanted to know what his team found so interesting.
Bruce stood at the podium and slowly answered the barrage of questions aimed at him while his young ward, Dick Grayson retreated to the shadows behind the stage. The people at the scene didn't seem to notice, but the team sure did.
They watched curiously as the boy glanced momentarily at his watch, his sea blue eyes widening slightly when he did. The boy shifted his gaze to his father, then at the audience, and finally at the staff around him before walking swiftly and silently off the stage. He talked to a man standing on the bottom floor, probably the stage manager, and gave a light bow. He was obviously apologizing for something. The boy then jogged to the side of a building before completely disappearing from view after turning the corner.
Half a second later, the robotic voice of the zeta tubes rang throughout the cave. "Recognized, Robin B01."
The team turned their heads towards the doorway and watched with wide eyes as the boy they had just seen moments ago on the news, strode confidently into the living room.
"Hey guys!" Dick waved. "Mmm.. something smells good." He said sniffing the air.
"Hold on a second!" Artemis suddenly yelled, shocking the rest of her surprised teammates out of their stupor. Everyone except Wally that is, who had just casually waved back at the new arrival.
"You're telling me you're the Richard Grayson?" Artemis pointed at the well-dressed boy. "Robin, the boy wonder is the ward of the Bruce Wayne? And wait, doesn't that mean that Bruce…"
Dick smirked and let out one of his signature cackles. "Yeah, he's Batman and yeah, I'm Robin. Why? Is that a bad thing?"
"No. I mean… It just came as a surprise." Artemis said embarrassed at her previous outburst. Suddenly, Artemis tilted her head upwards and frowned at the smiling boy. "Hey! On my first day at Gotham Academy, weren't you the one who-"
"Yup!" Dick interrupted her as he reached into his suit pocket pulled out his I-phone. He slid his finger across the screen and pressed a button, bringing up a picture onto the screen. It was a photo of him and Artemis in their school uniforms from Artemis's first day at school. Artemis had on a confused and startled face, while Dick was smiling mischievously.
"Got it right here." The boy wonder said, imitating his smile from that day.
Artemis shook her head and let out a sigh. "We'll laugh about it someday, huh? Well played Dick, well played you little troll." She put Dick in a headlock and ruffled his hair. The both laughed and so did the team. Wally came up after and snatched the phone out of Dick's hands wanting to take a look at the picture.
"Nice face you got there, Artie." He said snickering.
"Hey! I was caught off guard, okay?" She let out an annoyed sigh while Wally and Dick started laughing.
"Pardon my interruption," Kaldur started, after Wally and Dick had calmed down. "but did Batman gather us here to have a meeting?"
"Nah." Dick answered. "I gave him a thorough review of what happened yesterday when we got back to the cave. He didn't think Klarion would show up again anytime soon, so he just let us have this day to rest and hang out."
The team nodded. They were quite happy that they could have a break from being heroes for a while and just enjoy each other's company.
"The pies are done!" Megan called cheerfully after reentering the kitchen. "Anyone want some?"
"You bet!" Wally yelled and blurred into the kitchen.
"Hey! You better leave some for us, Baywatch!" Artemis ran after the speedster.
The three boys left behind let out exasperated sighs.
"Some things never change." Said Dick. "At least now they themselves know its a lover's quarrel."
"I heard that!" both Wally and Artemis yelled simultaneously.
Dick held up his hands in defeat, before smirking and entering the kitchen. Kaldur and Conner smiled at each other before getting up to go join their friends in the kitchen.
The rest of the day went pretty smoothly after that. You could even say it was…
"Asterous!" smiled the entire young justice team.
Hope the ending was okay. Personally, I thought it was a nice place to end it! :D Sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes~
REVIEW PLEASEEEEE! And again, THANK YOU!
