I feel so sad right now. I am not even sure if people are reading the story because there are no reviews. I was going to update this yesterday but a family problem came up, and some of us ended up crying but enough about me, let's talk about the story.

KF: Finally. I thought you would just keep babbling on and on and— is that pie?

Me: Yep! Now you know what I want you to do, so do it or no pie for you.

KF: Awesomesupergirl123 does not own Young Justice or their characters, only her OC. Can I have that pie now?

Me: Sure. *Slams the pie in his face* On with the story!

"See you later guys!" Alex said as she walked away from Barbara, Artemis, and Dick. The three waved at her until she was out of sight. When they didn't see her anymore, they turned to each other and started talking.

"Okay, we're going to have a sleep over party at my place since she doesn't like going big." Dick paused. "Or talking to people she doesn't know. Anyways–"

"I'm going to get her favorite snacks and foods." Barbara interrupted. "And we all know how big of a sweet tooth that girl has. So I got that covered. We also need–"

"Movies. I'm going to get it. I'll make sure it's an action comedy. You know how much she likes a good laugh…and punch. So is that it?" Artemis finished.

"We have the present finished, planned out what's happening that night, and are getting the things needed. I think that's all we need. I have to go though so I'll see you later." Dick told them.

"Bye Dick!" The girls said. All three of them went their separate ways. When Dick reached Alfred's car, he asked a very important question.

"How much begging, puppy dog eyes, and possible blackmail will I need to convince Bruce to let me have a sleepover at the mansion?"

Alexis made it to her house (she refused to call it her home) to find bottles littered all over the place and a certain drunk father wasn't in sight. She quickly ran up the stairs hoping to avoid him only to see her dad staring down at her.

"Um… Hey Jonathan." She said meekly and slightly afraid. She also refused to call him her 'dad' anymore since he started drinking after the incident that took place about eight years ago. Alexis still loved him and all, but when his depression about her mother's death turned into a ridiculously serious drinking habit, it became harder for her to tolerate the fact that he is her father; someone that should be caring for you and protecting you. He kept a surprisingly intense stare considering he wasn't sober.

"Where were you?" He asked her, his words slightly slurred yet his tone was calm and accusing. Alexis flinched. It always seemed scarier when he was calm, because it was always the calm before the storm.

"I went to school, then went to grab a snack on the way home." She said quickly. Alexis was going to try to sidestep him, hoping he was drunk enough that he wasn't coordinated. Jonathan didn't give her that chance though because he grabbed her wrists and dragged her down the stairs, creating light bruises on her body and her glasses fell off somewhere on the way. She grunted every step she was dragged down. She braced herself for the impact that was about to come. His fist hit Alexis right in the face which caused her to stumble and fall on her butt.

"Look you bitch of a daughter, when you go out, it is under my consent, my permission; my rules. You are not to go out there unless I tell you to. Okay?" Alexis mumbled something and Jonathan slapped her across the face, leaving a burning red mark on her. She put a hand on her cheek where the mark was.

"Yes Jonathan." She said a little more louder and coherently. He left the room to get more beer to drink and Alexis went to her room upstairs.

She dropped her backpack on the floor, all with homework finished in Study Hall. Alexis then went into her secret room, the computers on the left wall lighting up the place as she walked in. She went to the wall facing her, went to a small keypad and dialed: 35263(1) A place in the wall moved out, revealing a compartment holding three objects. Alexis picked them up.

It was three, golden, oval lockets. One had an 'A' carved in it, another had a 'B', and the last had a 'R'. She opened the first one that had an 'A' engraved on it. It had an empty space in the middle and two pictures on the side. On the left was a picture of her and Artemis in a photo booth. Artemis had an arm around Alex and her index finger was holding a corner of Alex's mouth up. As was her other hand. Artemis was laughing trying to forcibly make her friend smile for the camera. Alex's hand was around Artemis' shoulder while the other was by her own face making a piece sign.

The picture on the right was of the whole group of friends. Barbara was on the left, her body covered in blue paint as she was rolling her eyes and smiling at the duo in the middle. Artemis was drenched in water, her clothes soaked on the right end of the picture, looking amused at the people beside her. Alex was beside her, on her knees and grabbing her stomach with one hand and holding onto Dick with the other, who was in the same position as her. They were both laughing with tears in their eyes, both covered in sticky pink stuff. Alexis remembered that day. It was the end of 'Prank Week' and they all got at each other. Each of the lockets had that picture in it, along with a photo of only Alexis and her friend.

Barbara's had a picture of her and Alex at the mall, holding dresses up to there bodies and posing. Alex was holding up a yellow sundress, with one arm on her hip and making a mocking duck face at the camera. Barbara was holding dark blue dress with the same pose as Alex.

Dick's picture was more intimate. Alex had a blanket wrapped around her shoulders, her glasses were gone, and she was looking up at Dick's face which was just 2 cm away from her own, their noses touching. Dick was looking down right into her eyes. If anyone else was looking at the picture, they would probably assume they were going to kiss instead of knowing the truth. Dick was actually comforting her that day, and they had a moment that was interrupted by Barbie and Arty(2).

Alex was planning to give these on her birthday, but she had a bad feeling that she wouldn't be able to that day. Something big was going to happen soon, and she wasn't going to like it at all. It was a gut feeling, and her gut was never wrong. So, she was going to give it tomorrow. Alexis closed the locket and sighed. She really hoped that everything would be okay.

(1) Can you guess what it means? It relates to my character and the title of the story. Write the answer in reviews!

(2) That is their nicknames for when they do something together, which will be mentioned in flashbacks.

That was chapter 3, munchkins! Now can you please review! There is a reason this chapter is kind of short. Well to me anyways. I am going to post every weekend, and hopefully I won't delete this story from lack of reviews. Remember to comment and right your thoughts! Bye! :)
