I'm sorta starting to feel a little more hope in picking up this story each time I touch my computer. I hope you guys love picking up your computer or Ipad or phone or whatever just to read my story. If not no prob, It's been sorta boring to just sit home and wait for me to write a new chapter for you guys huh? Well, it has for me. I mean I've planned out what might happen in these next chapters, but really I'm not so sure I should do this ending or that ending, you know? Well, while I'm actually typing, I might as well get to the story!
Disclaimer: I don't own YJ, I've told you that before, NO SUING! (I think that's how you spell it...right?)
Chapter 16: Missing?
It was past midnight, well only 30 minutes, but still it was past midnight. Dick and Kaldur had been trying to get a hold of Zee and Raquel for at least 15 minutes. They gave the two 15 minutes just to make sure they could get home, but not luck at all. Opal had soon fallen asleep with Mary Ella, the two had played a game of tag, then hide-and-seek, then a game of go fish, which they didn't know how to play and wouldn't listen to the directions their fathers gave them, and decided to just throw cards at each other and all over the house. (Dick and Kaldur ended up picking up after them) At the end of their go fish 'game' the two girls had eaten cookies and milk, then had fallen asleep in the family room watching an old TV show called 'Popeye', which Kaldur insisted they watched an episode of on the disc he had in his car.
"I can't wait any longer," Dick said, sitting on the couch with his head in his hand and elbows on his knees. He stood up, frantic, and paced around the living room whispering bad thoughts about what might had happened to his wife. Kaldur put a hand on his shoulder to try to calm his friend.
"Dick," He said as calmly as he could. Outside he was calm and patient, but inside was a disaster. Thoughts, memories, and dreams clouded his mind. All of Raquel and Opal. Kaldur took a breath to try to shake out those thoughts. "Raquel is with her, they make a very good team." He said.
Dick, being himself, didn't listen. "Okay, Kaldur, I'm going to find them, you watch the kids I'm leaving," He said and walked off. Kaldur stopped him before he got to the door.
"No," Kaldur said sternly, "First, we call Bruce, Diana, Oliver, and Dinah. No one else. They're the ones that mostly trained us and they need to know." He said and pointed to the phone. Dick walked over and called all four, who rushed over immediately after hearing what was going on.
Bruce, Dina, Oliver, and Dinah now sat with Kaldur and Dick, explaining what was going on. Dinah and Diana had volunteered to stay and watch Opal and Mary Ella while Bruce, Oliver, Kaldur and Dick went looking for the four women who seemed to have gone missing the same way. The four men left in Dick's car. Bruce sat in the front pulling out his phone and dialing in tracker numbers of the four women. The trackers had been put in the whole team and league when Wally had supposedly died. Bruce told Dick where to go and they soon pulled up to the mid evil castle. The four got out of the car and just stared at the castle until another car pulled up. The passenger and driver doors opened to reveal a familiar red head and a black haired boy who still looked 16.
Conner walked to the group and stared at Wally, who had yet to even take a step or close the door. That's when Wally panicked. Wally slammed the car door shut and frantically ran everywhere calling for Artemis, who was still missing. Wally tried to zoom past Oliver, but now being Wally's uncle-in-law he had learned how Artemis forced him to stop running. Oliver had grabbed Wally by the collar, lifting him up off the ground, which seemed pretty easy seeing that all this stress left him developing gray hair and loosing weight. Wally snapped out of his panicked trance and came back to reality.
As soon as everyone knew what to do, they all headed into the castle, ended up standing right where the girls stood and fell into the trap landing on the concrete floor. Being the men they were, they ignored the pain and got up straight away, armed and ready, following the light that had gotten the girls in trouble. As they got closer the stopped. They swung around fought the few guys that were stalking them, followed by other villains that had just jumped out. As the group punched the last few guys they heard groans, and turned to see the four girls becoming conscious again. Wally zoomed to Artemis, untying her so quickly it made other's heads spin. He held Artemis in his arms as he cried, as she started laughing hysterically.
Conner had also untied M'gann and were kissing each other which made everyone turn around or look away uncomfortably. Kaldur and Raquel laughed about the whole situation, being as positive as they could at the moment.
Dick and Zatanna where currently hugging each other, a few tears dripping down their faces.
"I thought I had lost you," Dick mumbled into Zatanna's hair. Dick heard a faint 'you too' come from Zee and he pulled away from her to see her tear stained face. Dick smiled and pressed his lips onto Zatanna's. When everyone was done crying and kissing, they were on their way out when a laugh echoed down the halls. At the end of the hall, Joker stood with a large fake flower. Everyone gasped and froze, thinking it was laughing gas, the stuff that Joker uses not the stuff you use at the dentist. He laughed as he threw the flower and it exploded, leaving everyone except him to pass out. Everyone's vision went dark and pounds could be heard on the concrete flooring. They were doomed.
