Artemis walked past the bedrooms of the others to the communal area. Conner was staring at the television, yet not absorbing anything. M'gann and Kaldur were mysteriously absent. Which left the other two main members of the team talking in low voices;

"I'm fine. I'm just-not that hungry."

"Wally. I know you. You aren't eating because you're upset."

"Rob, puh-lease."

"Look! Cheese!"

Artemis followed the noise to the kitchen. True to the sound of the conversation, Robin was dangling a plate of nachos in front of Wally. This reminded her of when Captain Marvel had played waiter to Wally and gone through four bags of nachos, two bars of cheese and a liter of pineapple juice in one sitting.

But she never would have guessed Robin was convincing convince Wally to eat. And failing.

"Common dude. Let's go!"

"Go where?" Artemis asked, walking into sight.

"Artemis, did you- do your hair?" Asked Conner, who at some point had come into the kitchen from the other side. Was that a complementary tone she heard? He was smart and conservative, but other than that, he was usually moody, silent or I'M-GONNA-LOOSE-IT!

Actually that wasn't really fair. Unlike Conner, who was pretty much a permanent "Cave person" by default, Artemis would have been home right now, working on her arrows, sparing in a gym or just watching T.V. Her mother, her few high school friends and the Team kept her in the world. Conner had very few friends and not even a parent to help him, yet he was adjusting at a rapid pace to a world he'd known for such a short time. He had even added her on Facebook.

Unfortunately, he as well was acting different after the simulation. They all were. M'gann and Artemis staying in their rooms, Kaldur in "lock down mode", Conner was more subdued than angry, Robin was anxious to leave the cave and Wally not eating.

"Poor boys" a sympathetic voice in her mind voiced.

She shook the thought away and replied "Um…yeah. Well, Wally did actually."

Artemis wouldn't have even have to look to know that everyone was now staring at Wally.

"What?" Wally asked.

"We didn't say anything." Robin said coyly, smiling like an idiot.

"Shut it. Don't act like a d-"

"K.F!"

"What?" Conner asked confused.

"Never mind!" The three teens yelled to the clone, faces flushed.

Wally smiled, but it wasn't the same smile she knew. It wasn't the flirty smile directed at every hot or pretty girl besides freakin' ZATANNA. It wasn't a jokey smile. It was unfamiliar. It was like a stranger had taken Wally, their Wally, giving them a photo copy version.

It said "I might be okay, but I'm not fine- at all" (1).

Out of nowhere, Robin jumped- no sprang-on Wally's back, legs wrapped around his waist, holding tightly onto Wally's upper body with his left arm while his right hand held a nacho.

"DUDE!" Wally struggled trying to shake off his friend.

"Wally. Eat the nacho."

"I'm not hungry man. You're making me mad." Wally twisted and writhed.

Artemis and Conner watched as Robin tried to shove the nacho into his face while Wally whined. The acrobat was like a snake around a deer, but ironically trying to help.

"Wallace Rudolf West."

"Don't make me say your name, Robbie-poo (2)." Wally's jerking was becoming less springy , becoming shorter and more concentrated.

Robbie-Poo?

Robin, seeing the confused, awkward laughing faces of his friends, mumbled:

"Really Wally? Really?"

"Get OFF OF ME." Wally squeezed his eyes shut and backed into a wall. Hard. Robin hugged Wally tight.

"Come on Wally. Just eat the damn nacho." Artemis sighed. She wasn't annoyed, rather just wanting Wally to act normal again.

"That hurt." Robin said, half sarcastically.

"Robin, I think you should get off." Conner said quietly.

"What?"

THUDDDDDDDDDDDDD!

Yes, I'm doing a cliff hanger. I wasn't planning on making this longer. The first chapter was origionally supposed to support a different, longer story that is yet to be published. But hell, I'm going to make a BUNCH of stories at different times. I'm on bed rest today so I'm going to update the story!

(1) I don't own this song, but I've been listening to this song a lot for some reason.

(2) I also don't own Teen-Titans. Kitten was damn annoying.
