Chapter 8:
Third Person
Location: Mount Justice
"Are you sure you're okay," Robin asked Superboy, as they walked toward the living room from the Zeta beam.
"I'm fine," Conner said, rounding the corner. That's when the rest of the team and their mentors saw them.
"Conner," They yelled.
"Are you alright?"
"Did they really have Kryptonite?"
"Do you need anything?"
Superboy was about to answer, when Superman and Martian Manhunter came into the room.
"Meeting, now" Superman said to the mentors.
~YOUNG JUSTICE~
"Are you positive," Wonder Woman.
"Look at the facts," Superman said, "The android had him cornered and then just let him go."
"I could be programmed not to hurt-" Green Lantern started.
"They shot both me and Superman down," Martian Manhunter said.
"Still that doesn't mean Conner is involved," Batman said.
"Then is the proof you're wrong," Flask said, "If Batman-the same man who probably thinks girls scouts have a second agenda-don't think Conner involve, Conner's not involved."
"You want us to ignore the facts. That's insane," Superman said.
"No...Accusing a kid is insanity," Flash argued.
"It's not a kid. It's a clone that needs to be dealt with," Superman said.
"This is madness," Wonder Woman said.
"Could you live with yourself if something happened to Wally," Superman asked Flash, and then turned to Batman, "or Dick?"
~YOUNG JUSTICE~
It was quiet in the living room as Robin closed his laptop. "I think we've heard enough," Robin said, everyone turned to Conner.
"I need some air," Conner said, standing up.
"Conner, wait," M'gann said, going to follow him.
"Let him go," Kaldur said, putting a hand on M'gann's shoulder.
"But-" M'gann started.
"He needs to be alone," Artemis said, softly.
~YOUNG JUSTICE~
Conner went to the beach and sat in the sand. He had made a habbit of coming to the beach whenever something upset her, when he first got to Mount Justice. He comes here whenever he needed to clear his head, and this was a perfect example. His CADMUS program was flashing in his mind.
PROTOCOL 27V3A:
ANY EXPERIMENTS THOUGHT TO BE
COMPROMISED MUST BE TERMINATED.
Conner didn't want to be terminated. He had just started to live. He was experiencing everything that he had missed being with CADMUS. He wanted more time.
Conner was so deep in thought that he jumped when Wolf came and sat down beside him.
"Hey boy," Conner said, and scratched behind Wolf's ear. The phone Sphere made went off as she round beside Conner.
WHAT'S WRONGS?
"He's finally gonna get rid of me," Conner said, "I don't want go away. I'm finally living. I don't want to stop."
DON'T WORRY. EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT.
"But what if it doesn't? What's gonna happen to be? Or to you and Wolf," Conner asked. Wolf let out a whine and laid his head on Conner's lap.
Sphere started beeping, and Conner watched as a wristwatch and collar morphed away from her.
"What are these," Conner asked, picking them up.
IF THEY TRY ANYTHING, WE'LL BE READY.
