A/N: Shorter one than usual. Oh well. I'm all distraught from the news about Young Justice and Green Lantern being cancelled. :c Also, I'm so tempted to give up on finals, guys. I'm gonna fail Calculus.

"Recognized: Robin: B-Zero-One."
I stepped out of the Zeta-Beam with a smile, eager to see Verena again. I peeled off my sunglasses as a grunt met my ears.
I scanned the room, looking for the owner of the voice. It was the girl that was plaguing my thoughts right now.
I heard another grunt as I saw an engine move a few feet before stopping. There she was.
"What are you doing?" I asked, knowing Verena was on the other side.
"Dragging this thing to my jet," I heard her respond before she exhaled deeply. She took a deep breath and then the engine moved.
"Want some help with that?" I offered.
"No, no," Verena protested. Her head popped out from the side of the engine, her large emerald eyes meeting my sapphire ones. "I've got it. You go bask in your victory." Of course she knew that I kicked Wally's butt in video games before going home.
I frowned. I offered, but there was only one outcome. "I push; you pull," I suggested.
Verena sighed, wiping away some of the moisture on her glistening forehead. "You're helping either way, aren't you?"
"Yup," I nodded, grinning at her.
"Well then help me drag this over to my jet so I can replace the engine."
"Your wish. My command."
A/N: Reviews, guys! :)
