…
They were all in the living room bored as hell. Zatanna, Roy, Dick, Megan, Artemis, and Wally.
"I'm bored!" Artemis yells out.
"We know." They all moan.
"What was that?" Roy asks as he hears something.
"The zeta tube!" Dick yells out happy.
They all stand up and run hoping it was Batman with a mission.
"Oh hey Superm-" Dick stops mid-Superman and looks at the briefing room filled with clothes, boxes, and other stuff. Conner walks in carrying another box, Superman already looking in the 2 boxes that were on the floor. "man." Dick finishes.
"Conner what is all your crap doing in here?" Roy asks as he walks in the briefing room.
"I think what our friend is trying to say is. What are you doing?" Dick asks him nicely being the detective that he was curiously-killed-the-cat and he sits down looking inside the box.
"I'm getting rid of all this stuff." Conner says putting a box down.
"What stuff?" Wally asks him looking through a box with Dick, Dick picks up a tiny cute chicken toy.
"Cute." Dick says squeezing it and it chirps.
"Aw. That's adorable." Zatanna says grabbing it as it continues to chirp.
"It's everything she gave me, everything she touched, everything she looked at." Conner says to them putting stuff inside a box.
"Who's she?" Kal asks him confused getting up and looking at him.
"Wendy." Conner says to him.
Artemis walks behind Conner and waves at Superman to stop talking, Conner doesn't notice.
"This is Wendy's?" Wally asks picking up a white shirt saying 'All Around Good Guy'.
"No, it's is mine. But I wore it with Wendy when we went to see that "Wizard of Oz." movie. Something about the combination of the movie and the hot dogs at the Avon Cinema made her sick in the parking lot, and I held her hair, and it was nice, and now I got to get rid of it." he gets the shirt and puts it back in the box.
"Oh sad." Zatanna says to him.
"And gross." Wally says as he puts the shirt away and goes into another one. "I have a question, what's the deference between a G-string and a thong?" he asks pulls out red and black panties, Roy chuckles.
"That's Wendy's stuff which I have to give back." Conner says grabbing them and putting them back. "This box is stuff that reminds me of Wendy." Conner says to them.
"Wendy your girlfriend?" Kal asks him ignoring the panties that Conner had been holding on too.
Artemis starts waving at him again to stop, cut off signal.
"Yes."
"Why what happen?" Kal asks concerned.
"She broke up with me." Kon says to him.
"You guys broke up?"
"No she broke up with me." Conner corrects him. "Why does everybody have trouble with that concept?"
"Do you want me to call her?" Kal asks him.
"NO!" Conner yells at him.
"Ok what do you think when somebody does this-" Artemis asks as she waves her arms. "means?"
"Oh, I didn't notice." Kal says to her.
"Okay, I'm waving around like an idiot over here." Artemis says to him, and goes back to the others looking inside the box.
"Right." He says to Artemis.
"Whoa!" Wally yells out. "You're getting rid of your leather jacket?" he says pulling it out. "You love this jacket, you asked it to marry you on several occasions."
"Yeah well I wore it on almost all of our dates." Conner says to him, he looks at the jacket. "It looks sad, yeah ok, I'll keep it." he says taking it back. "That reminds me anybody want a red bike?" he says jiggling the keys to his motorcycle.
"I want it!" Dick yells out.
"Dick?!" Zatanna yells at him.
"What? Mine doesn't have turbo boost." Dick says to her.
"Here you go." Conner throws him the keys, Zatanna catches the keys.
"Zatanna!"
"You'll die."
"Oh that." He says slightly pouting.
"Kon will you calm down for just a second." Kal says and Conner looks at him. "Why did she break up with you?"
"What?" Conner asks now the one being confused.
"Is there someone else?"
"Not that I know of."
"Is she moving?"
"No."
"Dying?"
"What?" Conner asks confused and gets down and puts the stuff in the box correctly so that it would close.
"Well-" Kal starts and Roy gets up taking the red shirt that had black crows in it.
"What are you-?" Conner asks him as he takes the shirt.
"Mine." Roy says to him getting the shirt.
"Oh." Conner goes back to putting the stuff in the box.
"Conner this is most of your clothes." Megan says to him.
"No not all, I still have my S shirts, some other shirts and a couple of jeans and my boots." Conner says to her.
"Did you, um, try something?" Kal asks Conner.
Everybody looks up at him smirking, covering their mouths trying not to laugh.
"Did he seriously just ask that?" Wally whispers smiling.
"What?" Conner asks looking up at him.
"You know, did you wanna…"
"What?" Conner asks getting up from the floor.
"Did you wanna go faster than her?"
"You mean sex?" Conner asks him.
"wow." Artemis whispers as Conner just blurted it out.
"Yes." Kal says to Conner a little uncomfortable.
"We had sex."
"Oh well that's-"
"After she broke up with me then she told me she didn't love me anymore."
"…wow, Conner I am so sorry."
"Yeah, I'm gonna go teleport this crap into a volcano." Conner says picking up the box.
"Where you safe?" Kal asks him a not as uncomfortable as before.
"Safe?" Conner asks a confused.
"Yeah."
"Should we leave?" Artemis asks the team.
"Are you kidding? We should make popcorn." Wally says to her.
"Like?...condoms?" Conner asks him not sure what he was talking about.
"Yes."
"Oh…well…don't yell at me."
"You weren't safe?!" Kal yells at him. "What the hell were you thinking!?"
"Now we should get popcorn." Roy says sitting down smiling.
"Your horrible." Megan says to him.
"Kal-" Conner tries to stop him from talking.
"Do you have any idea how stupid that is?!" Kal yells at him.
"Stop yelling." Conner says to him, hurt.
"I'm not yelling!" Kal yells at him.
"Yes you are!" Conner yells back. "We had sex and then she told me she didn't love me and it hurts so stop yelling at me."
"Ok." Kal takes the box Conner was holding puts it down and hugs him. "I'm sorry."
"Thanks." Conner says hugging him back.
"Aw." Zatanna, Artemis and Megan say.
"Somebody get a phone out." Roy says as he tries to find his phone in his pockets.
"I got it." Wally says as he gets his phone out quickly takes a picture.
"You guys suck." Conner says and moves to grab the boxes and grabs the tiny cute chicken toy from Zatanna and puts it inside the box. "I'll be back. Hold my jacket." He gives Dick his jacket and teleports out.
"Batman will be here in a couple of minutes for a new mission." Kal says to them. "I'm gonna go." He says and leaves out the zeta tubes.
"Finally he's free." Artemis says smiling.
They look at her confused, Zatanna looks at her and shake her head.
"Artemis, he just broke up with his girlfriend." Zatanna says to her.
"So what?" Artemis asks her.
"So, you'll be his rebound girl."
"I'm fine being the rebound girl."
Dick elbows Wally to say something. Wally shrugs.
"You are so damaged." Roy says to her.
…Mount Justice
"So we need to get Dmitri Greshnev to talk, get information about the missing nukes." Black Canary says to them.
"Covertly." Batman reminds them.
"How are we going to do that?" Aqualad asks them.
Superboy teleports in. "Are you ok?" Megan asks him.
"Yeah." Superboy says to her. "Mission?"
"We know he travels with a lot of protection but he also has a bad back from a bullet he took a few years ago, spends most of his business in a spa that's a favor for Russian mob." Batman says to them.
"He also likes blondes." Black Canary says to them.
"All right, I'll go but I'm not wearing high heels." Artemis says to her.
"Wouldn't help. You're not his type." Batman says to her.
Artemis looks at him, slightly offended. "What's his type?" she asks him.
Batman and Black Canary look at Superboy. He looks back at them confused.
"What?" he asks them.
"Superboy." Robin says to him with a face.
"No." Superboy says this isn't happening. "Really?" he asks them. "Come on! Roy can do it."
"Not it!" Wally and Roy yell out.
"Damn it." Conner growls.
"Do I have to say it?" Robin asks knowing he was a little too young to go into undercover for that.
"No, Superboy Black Canary can help you with your hair." Batman says.
"Let's go." Black canary says to him taking his hand.
"But, but, but..." Superboy says not wanting to go with her. "alright." He whispers and starts walking.
…Spa
Artemis and Kid Flash were outside the spa talking to each other, two motorcycles in case something went wrong. Aqualad and Miss Martian were in the bioship up in the sky. Robin and Zatanna were eating ice cream on the other side of the street. Red Arrow was eating a hot dog while sitting the sidewalk a soda with the other hand.
'Hey Superboy, what are you wearing?' Artemis asks in the mindlink.
'That is so not funny.' Superboy says to her as he walks in the spa, hot water pools, men wearing nothing but towels on their waist or handing by their shoulders walking naked.
'Come on, how many times have us girls need to wear a bathing suit.' Artemis says to him.
'Well that would be more than what I'm wearing right now.' Superboy says with only a white towel around his waist.
'Oh poor SB.' Zatanna says licking her ice cream.
'And I see him.' Superboy says as he sees 25 some year old Dmitri Greshnev Russian mob boss.
'Go for it pretty boy.' Red Arrow says to him as he sips his soda through a straw.
'Please don't call me that…ever.' Superboy says and drops his towel and walks inside the hot pool.
'Superboy you don't have to do this.' Miss. Martian says to him.
'Seriously? I'm naked in a pool with 4 other men you couldn't have mentioned this before?'
'Sorry.'
'Go talk to him.' Zatanna says to him.
'No, I need a minute.' Superboy says to him playing with the water as he leans on the wall of the pool.
'Take your time.' Kid Flash says to him.
'No don't, you have to hurry. You only have an hour until they leave.' Robin says to him.
'Shut up.'
'Oh come on, I was just trying to-'
'No he's coming over.' Superboy says as he looks up and sees Dmitri walking up to him.
'It's the blond hair, you look wicked hot as a blond.' Artemis says to him smiling.
'What do I do?' Superboy asks them.
'Say Hi?' Kid Flash says to him.
"Hi." Superboy says to him.
"Hi." Dmitri says to him in a slight Russian accent. "I'm Dmitri." He says with a smile.
"Kon."
…Fancy Hotel
"You live here?" Kon asks as he walks in the penthouse sounding amazed (which he was, he lived in a cave) wearing jeans, green shirt and shoes.
"Yes." Dmitri says to him wearing a fancy suit, tie, and shoes then turns to his 'bodyguards' and says to them. "Stay outside." In Russian which Kon understood.
"You live in a hotel?" Kon asks him still sounding amazed as he looks around using x-ray vision looking for his laptop ready to use the USB drive that he had in his pocket.
"Momentarily." Dmitri says to him as he walks up to him from behind. "My life is very much like Monopoly. I'm here on business." Kon turns around looks slightly up at him he was standing extremely close.
"What do you do?" Kon asks trying not to sound too uncomfortable as Dmitri ran his fingers in his hair.
"This and that."
"Sounds cryptic."
Dmitri pushed his lips on Kon, caressing his hair, his tongue slides inside his mouth, and he felt his hot tongue inside his mouth, exploring it. Kon stands tilting his head a little, hands on Dmitri's waist.
'Dude is he kissing you?' Red arrow asks him in the midlink.
'His laptop is under the bed.' Kon says to him. 'And yes, he is.' He says as Dmitri continues to kiss him running his hands on his body.
'How is it?' Kid Flash asks him.
'Rough, laptop anybody?'
'Is it weird?' Kid Flash asks him.
'I'll go get the laptop.' Miss Martian says to them. Robin gives her a new USB drive and she goes into camouflage mode and makes a hole in the bioship she flies down to the hotel.
'Is he grabbing your ass?' Artemis asks him, Red Arrow and Kid Flash chuckle.
'Stop it.' Kon says to them.
Miss Martian lands on the balcony tries the handle but it's locked. 'It's locked.' She says to him.
Kon pulls away from Dmitri and smiles at him backing away then opens the balcony doors going out to the small terrace. Miss Martian hides against the wall and sees Dmitri coming out following Superboy as he looked down at the street cars and people moving around. Dmitri walks out and puts his arms around his waist.
"You playing with me?" Dmitri asks him.
Miss Martian walks in the room and goes straight under the bed grabbing the laptop and plugs in the USB drive then it starts to slowly upload. 'Ok it's uploading.' She says to them.
'What do I do? He's licking my ear.' Superboy says a little uncomfortable.
'Lick him back.' Red says to him.
Red, Artemis and Kid bust out laughing, Robin and Aqualad tried hard not to laugh.
'How much longer?' Kon asks Miss Martian.
'50 percent.' She says to him.
"Something wrong?" Dmitri asks Kon bring him out of the mindlink.
"No." Kon says to him and turns.
"You getting bored?" Dmitri asks him.
"With you? Nah." Kon puts his hands on his belt hoops pulling him close. "Are you?"
"Nyet."
"Is that a yes?" Kon asks coyly.
"Let's go back inside."
'Not yet, not yet, not yet.' Miss Martian says to him.
"Or we can have fun outside." Kon says to him as he starts to unbutton his shirt. Dmitri takes off his own coat dropping it on the floor while Kon pulls up his tuck in shirt and Dmitri takes off Kon's shirt in one swift move and smiles at him.
'Careful SB.' Artemis says to him.
'Just don't lose your pants.' Red arrow says smiling.
'You're funny.' Kon says to him. 'Megan, are you almost done?'
'92 percent.' Megan says to him.
'Dude I think you're gonna have to lose your pants.' Kid Flash says smirking.
Kon starts kissing Dmitri's neck, licking, and sucking. Dmitri grabs him and pushes him down to the floor slightly shocking Kon. Dmitri gave Kon another smile before dipping down and nibbling at his neck. He ran his hands on Kon's chest his fingers brushed against the hardening nubs on his chest, licking his neck.
"You're really good at that." Kon says to him slightly enjoying the teasing.
'100 percent, done.' Miss Martian says to them, unplugs the USB then turns around seeing Kon and Dmitri making out. 'Kon, did you hear me?' she asks him.
'Yeah, give me a minute.' Kon says as he kisses Dmitri on the lips.
'Right.' Miss Martian says as she puts the laptop back under the bed then flies up to the bioship.
Dmitri inched his hands against Kon's belt and started to unbuckle it pulling the belt out of its loops and unzipped Kon's pants. His hand rubbed against the manhood still inside his boxers. Kon gave a soft, sexy grunt as Dmitri continued kiss him.
'SUPERBOY!' they all yell out at him.
"Yeah?" he says out loud.
"You ok?" Dmitri asks him as he pulls back.
Kon sits up and Dmitri looks at him. "I gotta go."
"Don't be silly." Dmitri says to him smirking. "Come here." He puts a hand behind Kon's head and pulls him into a kiss, Kon putting his hand on his right shoulder and squeezes he passes out-pressure point. Kon puts on his shirt back on and zips his pants on and buckles up. He sighs jumps on the railings and falls down flying away.
'Were you going?' Aqualad asks him.
'I'm gonna go take care of something. Don't worry I'll meet you guys back at the cave.' Superboy says to him.
'Take care of what?' Artemis asks him.
'Kon, come back.' Zatanna says to him.
'Yeah, what's going on?' Megan asks him.
'Red, Kid, Robin, Aqualad mind telling them what's going on.' Superboy says to them.
'Kon's got a woody.' Kid Flash blurts out, Red, Robin and Aqualad chuckle.
'Thanks Kid.' Superboy says then teleports far away from the mindlink.
…New York
"It'll be fun." Roy says to them, he was wearing a red shirt with a skull on it, jeans and shoes.
"Let's go back and ask Dick and Wally to come with us." Kon says to him, he was wearing a black shirt with white letters saying you only live once, twice. Once scratched out in red and his leather jacket.
"No." Roy says to him as they walk down the sidewalk.
"Why not?" Kon asks him as he follows him.
"Because, they both have girlfriends."
"Wally doesn't have a girlfriend."
Roy looks at him. "Artemis?"
"Nope."
"Oh…well it's too late now. Keep walking."
"So, why are we doing this?"
"Because I'm sick and tired seeing you mope around for that chick."
"Wendy."
Roy turns to him. "We shall never speak her name again." He looks at him and fixes his collar then starts to untuck his shirt. "Now, when you wanna be with a woman you do not walk up to her and say, Hey I wanna sleep with you, you say nice shoes. Does that make sense?"
"No."
"Just say it." Roy tells him, then runs his hands through Kon's hair messing it up. "Better. Come on." They continue walking and go into an alley.
"Where is this place anyway?"
"Huh."
"What?"
"It's supposed to be here." Roy says looking at the wall.
"It's a wall." Kon says to him.
"I can see that." Roy says to him a door opens from behind them, a man stares at them. "Nevermore." He says to him.
The man pulls out a remote and presses a button a door opens. Music blaring Roy and Kon both walk in and the techno music starts to get louder, a sea of people dancing, neon lights flashing. Kon starts to bob his head and so does Roy dancing next to the other people next to each other, back to back smiling. Kon then gets smashed next to a man and a woman dancing.
…
"Hey, let's go." Roy says to Kon as he sees him making out with a girl.
"What? Why?" Kon asks him, not wanting to leave.
"We have a job."
"I don't wanna."
"Let's go." Roy says to him and pulls him away from the girl.
…South Asia
"I can't believe it." Superboy as they walk in the jungle. "I blame you." He says to Red Arrow.
"Stop it." Red Arrow says to him.
"I just needed two seconds to ask for her number."
"I can't believe you guys went to a party without me." Kid Flash says to them.
"Could you guys shut up, we're supposed to be stealthy remember?" Robin says to him.
They continue walking as Robin checks his holo-computer on his wrist every other minute making sure they were going the right way. They pass trees, walking on the somewhat tall grass, plants, and animals calling out. Superboy stops walking.
"What's wrong?" Robin asks, the only one who notices he had stopped moving.
"I hear something." Superboy says as he uses his super hearing.
"What's that?" Red arrow asks him.
"Get down!" Superboy yells out, they get down hiding under some trees. Superboy doesn't bother, he super speeds looking at the bullet, he grabs it and looks over directly where the bullet came from and uses telescope vision, then teleports.
A man he was wearing a dark red and black body suit, a black trench coat, his head concealed in a silver mask, with one scope for him to see out of. He turns and Superboy looks at him and starts shooting rapidly. Superboy stands still, looking at him bored.
"Huh?" the man says a little shocked.
"Seriously dude don't you see the S?" Superboy says to him.
"Well I thought you S-dudes where allergic to the green rock." The man says to him. Superboy looks down seeing the crushed green bullets on the grass, Superboy looked shocked. "Later kid." he throws a small disc at him at it lands on the grass.
"That a bomb?" Superboy asks him not alarmed, then it explodes sending a high-frequency signal, Superboy covers his ears in pain and lands on his knees then grabs it and crushes it stopping the signal. "Crap." The man was gone. He teleports out back to the Team, they were waiting for him.
"What happen?" Robin asks first, then sees the blood on his ears. "You ok?" he asks worried.
"FINE!" He yells out a little deaf, they look at him. "I'm good." He says to them in a normal volume.
Kid Flash goes up to him. "You sure? Your bleeding." He says pointing to his ears.
Superboy touches his ears. "Whoa, that's new." He says seeing the blood.
"What did he look like?" Red arrow asks him.
"I couldn't see his face, he had a lead helmet on, but he had a telescope right eye, guns-"
"Deadshot." Red Arrow says to him, knowing who he was.
"Is that all?" Robin asks him.
"Yeah." Superboy lies. "We should keep moving."
…Mount Justice
"Deadshot?" Batman asks him.
"Yup." Superboy says to him.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah that's him." Superboy says to him as he points to the picture on the computer.
"What was he doing there?"
"I don't know." Superboy lies. Batman looks at him, narrowing his eyes. "What?"
"Are you alright?" Batman asks him, knowing he was lying.
"Yeah fine. Why?" Superboy says slightly irritated.
"Superboy if something happen you can tell me."
"Nothing happen."
"Kon-"
"I'm gonna go walk Wolf." Superboy says to him and walks off.
…
"Hungry?" Megan asks Conner
"No." Conner says irritated as he drinks his orange juice.
"Morning." Roy says as he walks in.
"Get out of here Roy." Conner says to him.
"Why?" Roy asks him confused.
"It's just a code I live by." Conner says to him.
"Oh some did wake up in the wrong side of the bed." He says in a baby voice. Conner glares at him and the orange juice glass breaks without Conner even touching it.
"It's ok, I got it." Megan says getting a rag.
Conner gets up. "I'm sorry." He mumbles.
"It was a joke." Roy says as he leaves and then teleports. "Wow. That is one crappy kryptonian." He whispers to Megan in case he was still around. And Megan cleans up the mess.
…
"Hey Conner." Zatanna says as she and Artemis walk up to him on the pool of water.
"Hey." He swims down.
"Can we talk?" Zatanna asks, knowing he could hear her even underwater.
He flies up and over to her, he was wearing his swimming trunks. "What?"
"Are you ok?" she starts.
"I'm FINE!" he yells at her, Zatanna flinches.
"Any louder please." Artemis says to him.
"Everybody keeps asking that, I'm just having a bad day." Conner says to her as he walks in the hallway still wet.
"Zzz." Artemis says to him as she follows him, Zatanna stays put not wanting to piss him off.
"Excuse me?" Conner asks her confused looking at her.
"Day-s. You've been stomping around, barking at people for days." Artemis says to him.
"I have not." He says to her.
"Yes, Cujo, you have." Artemis says to him.
"I always talk to people like that."
"No, Benji, you don't."
"I'll be fine tomorrow." He sighs.
"Really, Lassie? Why is that?"
"I don't know, I'll just be better." He walks away.
"Conner, I'm not done talking-" Artemis starts, he teleports away. "Wow…I hate that power."
…
"Has anyone noticed how crabby Kon's been acting?" Wally asks as they all except Kon on the beach wearing bathing suits. They were all laying down on the sand getting a tan, relaxing.
"Yeah, what happen to you guys on that mission?" Artemis asks them, as she lays down on her stomach, the string on her bathing suit untied.
"Nothing, we kicked mercenaries ass." Wally says to her.
"Maybe Deadshot did something, or said something to him." Dick trying to come up with a reason why their friend was being a class-A asshole.
"Like what?" Roy asks him, laying down face up.
"I don't know." Dick says to him.
"Whatever, he keeps acting this way I'm gonna-" Roy starts.
"Hey guys!" Kon comes over, bathing suit and surfboard.
"Superboy!" Wally yells out.
"Kon!" Dick yells out.
"Hey, Conner!" Artemis says smiling.
"Those are my name." he says to him, smiling.
"What are you doing?" Wally asks him.
"Catching waves, wanna come?" he asks them smiling.
"Ok." Artemis says getting up, turns away from the boys and ties her bathing suit up. "Let's go." She gets up.
"That guy is like a roller-coaster of emotions." Dick says to them as they watch Conner and Artemis jump in the water.
"You mean to tell me he's a teenager? That is shocking." Roy says to them as he lay back down.
"He's not really a teenager, he's less than one." Wally says to him.
"Looks like a teenager, talks like a teenager-" Roy starts.
"Looks like a duck, walks like a duck." Wally tells him as he looks at Artemis holding Conner's waist as they try to catch a wave.
"That's what I'm saying." Roy says closing his eyes.
"You're an idiot." Dick says.
"Hey!" Roy yells out, looking at him.
"Wally." Dick says.
"Oh. Ok." Roy says and closes his eyes.
"Why?" Wally asks him confused.
"You like her, tell her before Conner does something." Dick explains as he sees Conner and Artemis fall off the surfboard for the 5th time.
"I do not like Artemis." Wally tells them getting annoyed.
"Oh please a guy with sunglasses and a dog selling pencils could tell." Dick tells him.
"What does that mean?" Wally asks him.
"That dogs are born salesmen." Roy says to him sarcastically.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Wally tells him looking at him.
Roy sits up. "You have a crush on her, tell her or Conner is going to-" he looks at Conner and Artemis facing each other on the surfboard kissing each other. "do that." He says pointing to them, Dick and Wally look at them. "There're really going at it." he says as Conner runs his hands on Artemis's back and Artemis runs her's on his chest.
"I don't like her." Wally says as he lays down on the beach.
"That was totally convincing." Roy says smirking, Dick rolls his eyes.
Happy Harbor high school…
Conner was listening to his iPod and reading on the grass reading Great Expectations, waiting for his date to pick him up.
"Good book?" Wendy asks as she walks up to him wearing her cheerleader outfit.
"Not really." Conner says as he continues to read.
"Then why are you reading?"
"I'm bored."
"Mind if I sit?"
"It's a free country."
Wendy sits down. "I wanted to say thank you for returning my stuff."
"You're welcome."
She sits down, Conner continues reading. "Conner could you look at me please." She says to him, he looks up from his book and looks at her. "I'm sorry about how things ended."
"It's fine."
"I have some of your stuff, you can pick them up whenever you want." Wendy says to him.
"Ok." He says to her. "That all?" he asks her.
"Yeah, that was all." She says, he continues to read. "Conner-"
"KENT!" Artemis yells out on her green motorcycle, jeans, green crop top and boots.
Conner gets up and puts his book away in his backpack. "I'll call you at tomorrow to pick up my stuff." He says to her putting his backpack on his back.
"Ok, yeah I'll…answer." She says awkwardly and stands up.
Conner looks at her and hugs her. "We're fine, I promise." She hugs him back, he pulls back. "I have a date, bye."
"Bye." Wendy says to him.
He walks up to Artemis smiling at him, he leans down and they kiss for a while. "Movie?" she asks him, looking as he sits behind her and she turns on her bike.
"Yup." He says to her, kissing her neck, she giggles.
…Mount Justice
"A 98!" Zatanna yells out as she walks in the cave with Megan, they all look at her slightly confused. "That's the grade she got for her essay. The teacher even read it in front of the whole class."
"Megan that's awesome!" Dick yells out happy for her.
"Congratulations!" Artemis yells out happy.
Conner says nothing.
"Huh? I thought Essays only went up to 70's." Wally says shocked. "Can I take a look at it?" he asks her nicely.
"Sure Wally." Megan says to him and gives him the paper on her hand.
"How is it possible that she's been on the planet less than a year and she's already a straight A student?" Artemis asks slightly jealous.
"I'm not good in Physics." Megan says to her.
"Mia couldn't believe her eyes." Wally reads out loud. "Carter, her long-time friend, her soul mate, who was so deep and sensitive, suddenly unveiled another face. An immature, stubborn being, who, above all, doesn't pay any close attention to others."
"I think that's enough." Artemis says taking the paper away.
"Oh come on, I won't read it out loud anymore I promise."
They all look at Conner for some kinda of reaction except for Wally who had no idea that Carter was Conner and Mia was Megan.
"What?" Conner asks annoyed that everybody was staring at him.
"Let's watch a movie." Zatanna says changing the subject.
"Beetlejuice!" Wally yells out.
"I'm not doing the dance." Dick says to him.
"Me neither." Artemis says to him.
"We're doing the dance." Megan says to them. "Let's go." She says happy.
"I'll make the popcorn!" Wally says to them running off.
"I'm not in the mood, I'm gonna go to my room." Conner says and walks off.
Dick goes after him. "Kon, dude are you ok?"
Conner sighs. "No, I'm not."
"Then let's talk."
"I don't want to." Conner says to him.
"Kon-" he teleports out. "Kon!" Dick sighs. "I hate that power."
…
"Hey guys, where Kon-El?" Superman asks as he walks in the cave. The team was on the floor playing cards, poker chips on the middle.
"In the living room, sucking the life out of it." Artemis says to him as she puts down two cards and gets two more.
"What?" Superman asks her a little confused.
"He's in a depressive mood." Zatanna says to him as she puts down chips. "Raise."
"I wouldn't go near him even if you paid me." Wally says to him as he puts down a card and gets another one.
"Oh ok, we'll I'll go and check on him. I have good news maybe it'll cheer him up." Kal says as he leaves.
"Good luck with that." Robin says to him.
"Hey Kon." Kal says as he walks in the living room looking at him.
"What?" Kon mumbles he was laying down on the couch slightly curled up hugging a pillow. Wolf on the other couch laying down very still, if they weren't breathing he'd think they was dead.
Superman looks down at him as Kon looks at the tv not blinking. "You alive?"
"What do you want?" Kon asks him bored.
"Ok." Kal looks at him, worried and touches Kon's forehead. "You sick again?"
"No." Kon says tired.
"Ok. Well, do you want to come over to Metropolis with me?" Kal says as he takes off his hand off him.
"Why would I want to do that?"
"You've been asking to come to Metropolis since you came out of the pod."
"I'm fine thanks."
"Come on it'll be fun."
"No."
"Kon come on, I want to introduce you to some fiends, we can eat lunch or dinner OH shop since you burned your clothes." Kal says to him, Kon says nothing, he crunches down to his level. "Please, we can probably kick some bad guys butt if they show up."
"No."
"I'll buy you a toy if you're a good boy."
Kon looks at him slightly glaring at him. "I'm not a child." He sighs. "Fine."
"Yes, come on."
"What now?" Kon asks him not wanting to get up.
"Yeah come on get up." Kal says to him cheerfully.
"Tomorrow."
"No now, I got the day off for this, come on." Kal says to him, Kon sighs tired and gets up tired putting on his combat boots that where on the floor. Slowly putting them on, and ties them up slowly. "I know you can go faster than that. Come on, come on." He tries to make him go faster.
Kon stops tieing his boots, leaving them half way untied. "Let's go."
"Yes, come on." Kal says happy as he pushes him from behind.
"And it's gotta be something I don't have to put together." Kon says to him.
"What?" Kal asks him.
"My toy." Kon says to him.
"Got it." Kal says to him happy.
…Metropolis
"Pretty cool huh?" Kal says as they fly up in the air.
"Yeah, noisy." Kon says to him, as he hears the car honking, people yelling for whatever reason. He quickly covers his ears. "What the hell is that?"
"Jimmy."
"What's a jimmy?" Kon asks annoyed.
"My friend's watch." Kal says and flies off, Kon follows still covering his ears.
"A watch?" Kon asks as he follows him.
"Hey Superman!" Jimmy yells out happy waving on top of the Daily Planet.
Superman lands down. "Hi Jimmy."
"What's up big guy? Lois said you wanted to talk." Jimmy says to him, his watch still on.
"Where is she?" Superman asks him.
"Coffee run."
"Right."
Superboy lands near Superman. "Could you please turn that off." he says annoyed.
"…" Jimmy looks at him speechless with shock.
"The watch, Jimmy." Superman says to him.
"huh?...right." Jimmy stammers and turns it off.
Superboy sighs. "Wow do you have any idea how annoying that is? Zee, Zee, Zee, right through the head like a spike." He says leaning on the side of a wall.
"Sorry." Jimmy says to him still looking shocked.
"You ok Jimmy?" Superman asks him.
"Yeah, there's a mini-you over there." Jimmy whispers to him pointing to Superboy
"Don't talk about me like I'm not here." Superboy says to him.
"We're not." Superman says to Superboy. "He has super hearing." He tells Jimmy.
"Sorry." Jimmy says to Superboy.
"Alright I'm here." Lois says as she walks in with a coffee. "Superman here yet?" she asks then sees him. "Hi big man." She says to him.
"Hi Lois." Superman says to her smiling.
"Hi Superman." Lois says to him again.
"You said that already." Superboy says to her.
"Oh hi, who are you?" Lois asks him.
Superman pulls Superboy by his hand. "This is Kon-El."
"You're son?!" Lois yells out.
"No!" Superman yells out quickly.
"You should see what happens when I call him dad, he breaks out in hives." Kon says to him sarcastically.
"I didn't mean like that." He says to him. "He's my brother."
"Brother? Oh cool look your brother's here." Lois says to Superman. "I myself have a younger sister."
"I have no siblings." Jimmy says to them feeling left out.
"Lucky." Superboy mumbles.
"Forgive him he sometimes talks without thinking." Kal says to them.
"And sometimes I do it because I want to." Kon says to them.
"I like your shirt." Lois says to him.
"I like your legs." Kon says to her.
"Kon-El!" Kal yells out.
"It was a complement. Women like complements." Kon says to him, slightly confused.
"That we do." Lois says to him. "Mind if I ask you a couple of questions?" she asks giving Jimmy her cup of coffee getting a small notebook out of her tiny purse and pen.
"Yes I would date you." Kon says to her smiling.
"That is very smooth." Jimmy says to him.
Lois smiling at him. "Where are you parents?" she asks ready to write.
"I don't have any." Kon says to her.
"You don't have parents?" she asks him, thinking he was being sarcastic.
"That's my story and I'm sticking to it." Kon says to her.
"You have no parents?" Lois asks him confused.
"Oh the League, they can be my parents, Wonder woman the perfect mom, Batman a good dad strict definitely the time-out because you did something wrong type, Black Canary can be my cool aunt, Red Tornado the weird uncle, Kal's my brother and so are most of all the other sidekick-protégés I meant protégés make sure you put protégés and not sidekicks Red Arrow would kill me if said sidekicks-you're not writing any of it down." He says to her.
"Is he being serious?" Lois asks Kal.
"Kinda of." Kal says to her. "Remember the Cadmus fire?" he asks her.
"Yeah that was a couple of months ago."
"They made him."
"Made by Cadmus, that would be a cool title." Kon says to her then thinks. "Working title."
"How?" Lois asks still a little confused.
"They took my DNA, I don't know how."
"So technically he is my father but he wouldn't let me call him that."
"Kon-"
"It's fine by me, I don't mind."
"You're trying to make me feel bad aren't you?"
"You're the one who dragged me here, I was perfectly fine watching TV."
"You were practically a zombie."
"Well I'm having a bad day and you're not helping." Kon says annoyed.
"I have had enough-" kal starts and hears a scream.
"Saved by the scream." Kon says to him.
"This is not over young man." Kal says to him and flies off.
"Jimmy go get your camera!" Lois yells at him.
"I'm on it!" Jimmy ran out.
"You really know how to push his buttons don't you?" Lois asks him.
"Oh yeah."
"Think you can take me to where the action is?" Lois asks him.
"Yes but isn't that kinda dangerous?"
"Please I'm in danger all the time." Lois says to him.
"Well ok but do you have any powers?" Kon asks her.
"No, but I am a reporter."
"So you're a normal human being who wants to put herself in danger?" he asks.
"My god you're impossible, I'm walking."
"No, ok, I'm sorry. You're Kal's friend and-let's go." Kon grabs her hand
"Really?" she asks a little surprised. "Alright, let's go."
"Hold your breath." Kon tells her, she takes a breath. "Close your eyes." She closes her eyes and he teleports to the fight scene. She loses her balance, Kon hold her. "You ok?" he asks her. "That was the first time, I've done that."
"I'm good I'm-whoa Metallo." Lois says looking at a metal man with kryptonite on his chest.
"That the dude Kal's fighting?" Kon says as Superman gets punched in the stomach. "And losing."
"He's your brother, help him out." Lois tells him.
"I'm allergic to Kryptonite." He lies.
"So is he, now go help." Lois tells Kon.
"No." Kon says to her and starts to walk away.
"Are you sure your Superman's clone, cause you don't seem it."
"Don't get killed!" Kon yells out and flies off.
"Are you afraid?!" Lois yells out.
"I'm not afraid of anything!" Kon yells out at her in midair.
"C'mon Big Blue!" Metallo says to him as he picks him up by his cape and spins him around throwing him away. Metallo jumps up and straight down to Superman's back pining Superman down to the ground, the kryptonite making him weaker and weaker. Kon sighs then flies full speed towards them and head-butting him away then grabs him and tosses him far away.
"Kon." Superman says as he looks at him.
"Get up Kal." Superboy says to him getting him on his feet.
"Thanks." Superman says groggy.
Kon looks over at Metallo walking over to them laughing. "Kal I have to tell you something."
"Not now Kon."
"It's really important."
"I said not now." Superman said strictly standing up on his own two feet. "I hit high, you hit low."
"No, Kal I-" Superboy stammers a little Superman flies straight towards Metallo. "Kal it's important!" he yells out.
"What's important?" Lois asks running up to him.
"I'm-" Superboy looks at her. "I gotta go, I gotta talk to him." he says looking over to Superman getting the crap beat out of him. Punching him, kicking him, Superman bleeding on the ground panting.
"It's the end of you Superman." Metallo says to him as he steps away and the green rock on his chest starts to glow. "Goodbye." A green beam comes out of his green rock and straight for Superman.
Superboy appears in between the beam and Superman getting a direct hit on his chest, tearing his shirt then after a good minute it stops. Superboy looks at Metallo who was extremely shocked.
Superboy smirks a little. "Yeah."
Superboy runs straight for him punching him, kicking, burning him with heat vision, Metallo grabs him and punches him in the stomach denting his own metal hand. Lois runs up to Superman.
"Are you ok?" she asks him.
"Lois? Get away from here."
"But Superboy he's-"
"Immune." Superman says to her.
Metallo's hand becomes a hammer and starts hitting him with it. The other hand a chain saw. His hammer becomes wrapped around his neck and starts choking him. Superboy uses heat vision cutting his arm off. Metallo yells out and backs off, his arm gets put back together.
"Well, that's just not fair." Superboy says looking at him. "Hey!" he yells out. "How do I beat him?"
"Take the kryptonite out!" Superman yells back.
"Got it!" Superboy yells back and ducks down as Metallo tries to punch him then grabs the green rock ripping it out in one swift move. Metallo shuts down. Superboy looks at the rock and uses heat vision destroying it. Superboy walks up to Superman and Lois. "You ok?" Superman looks at him shocked. "I tried to tell you." he says to him.
"What-you-I-when…how?" Superman stammers.
"Well…" Superboy starts and looks at Lois. "Do you mind, I'm having a conversation with my brother."
"Kon."
"What? She's being nosy."
"Excuse us Lois." Superman says to her. "Come on, let's go get something to eat and you can tell me all about it." he says and puts an arm around him walking away.
"Oh did I tell you I teleported Lois with me."
"I saw, congratulation." He says to him. "Think you can teleport us to Paris?"
"I don't know, I'm in the mood for Chinese."
"China it is."
They teleport out.
…Mount Justice
"I told you, it doesn't hurt." Kon says to them as Batman waves a kryptonite ring in front of him striped down to his boxers on a table as he sat Indian style.
"Hey is that why you've a jackass?" Roy asks him.
"You're a jackass." Kon says to him, Roy shows him his middle finger.
"Kon, Roy enough." Diana says to them.
"I was just…" Kon starts and pauses. "I didn't know why I tell you."
"Did you not trust us to except it?" Robin asks him.
"No it's not that."
"Then what is it honey?" Diana says to him touching his shoulder.
"Could you close that?" Superboy says to Batman, he closes the lead box ring. Superman walks back in the room.
"So are we done?" Superman asks them.
"Yes." Batman says.
"No." Diana says to him. "You were saying?"
"Why didn't you tell us?" Batman asks him.
"The things I don't tell you could fill a library of congress." Kon says to him.
"Stop it Kon." Diana says to him. "This is not funny."
Kon looks over at Dick, Roy, Megan, Zatanna, Wally and Kaldur. "I don't have anything to say."
"Could you guys excuse us?" Superman asks them to leave.
"Umm-" Kaldur starts.
"No." Roy says to him.
"I think we should go." Zatanna says to them grabbing Dick's hand pulling him.
"But where're family." Dick says to her getting pulled by her.
"I think we should hear what Kon has to say." Megan says to them.
"Here, here." Wally cheers, agreeing with Megan.
"Go." Batman says to them.
"Ok." They say and leave.
"Can I have that as a superpower?" Superboy asks him.
"No." Batman says to him.
"Now tell us what's wrong? Why didn't you tell us?" Diana asks him.
"I don't know, why I didn't tell you."
"That's a lie." She says to him.
"No it's not."
"Yes it is I can tell because you're not looking at me." she says to him.
"Kon what's wrong?" Kal asks him concerned. "We're worried about you-" He starts.
"Worried? Why?" Kon asks.
"Kon you haven't been at any the training session." Diana says to him.
"Or any missions for two weeks now." Batman says to him.
"So this is an intervention?" Kon asks them, slightly defense.
"We just want to make sure you're all right." Kal says to him. "Are you alright?" he asks him.
Kon stays quiet for a while he looks at them, they were all worried about him. "No." he says to them not wanting to lie anymore. "I've been getting stronger and stronger and I don't know why. I can't even have an emotion without something breaking." He says in a panic, then looks at Batman. "Deadshot was in South Asia because of me, he shot me with Kryptonite bullets that's when I found out." He closes his eyes and breaths keeps his eyes closed. "I don't sleep anymore, I don't eat. It's not that I don't want to I just don't have to." He opens his eyes and looks at them all tears in his eyes, about to cry. "And the worst part is, I was watching this episode of The Twilight Zone with a kid that had godlike powers and whenever he got angry with someone he send them off to a cornfield." He starts crying. "And I don't want to send my friends off to a cornfield when I get angry at them." He says tears coming down his face covering his face.
Diana hugs him. "It's ok Kon."
Kon hugs her back. "How? How is this ok?" Kon asks him still crying. "I don't know what's happening to me. All my powers you don't have them Kal, how can I control something I don't understand."
"We'll figure it ok." Kal says to him touching his back.
"How?" Kon asks him. "Kal I'm scared that I might hurt someone."
"You're not going to hurt anyone." Kal says to him.
Kon looks at him, letting go of Diana he whips off his tears. "How can you be so sure?"
"Because I know you." Kal says to him. "You're a good kid we trust you-what other things haven't you told us?" he asks changing the subject in one second.
"What?" Kon asks looking at him.
"You said, the things I don't tell you could fill a library of congress."
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did."
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did."
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did."
"That's enough, the both of you. You're like twelve year olds." Batman says to them annoyed. "And you did." He says to Kon. "What haven't you told us?"
"Umm…well…" Kon stammers and waves at them smiling. "Bye." He teleports out.
"That little brat." Kal says to him angry.
"You scared him off." Diana says to Batman.
"I did n-" Batman stops himself from finishing the sentence. "I'm going to go do some research."
"Try to find out what's going out with Kon." Kal says to him as he walks away.
"I'll see what I can do." Batman says as he goes to the zeta tubes.
"He's right." Diana says to Kal, he looks at her a little confused. "I've seen what he is capable of. It is…intimidating."
"What are you saying Diana?" Kal asks her.
"Kal…you realize that if he crosses the line…if he loses control and takes a life."
"Pray to your Gods we're strong enough." Kal says to her.
…
Conner watched the surfers surfing the waves or watching the sunset sitting down on their surf boards. The sunset a beautiful orange red and the clouds getting the color slightly yellow. Unknown to Kal or Diana, Conner was listening to them while on Hawaii beach but instead of being angry or sad he smiled and continued to watch the sunset.
…
So it took me so long, but I've been busy with Blooming Love.
