And I am back! Finally starting to update more now that I have some free time!

Camping Trip

Kladur had never been in a vehicle this large. He had only ever been in the school bus, the small 'buggy' King Orin had driven him in once and the limo after helping Dick when they met. None were as big or open as the 'RV' they were currently in. It had a hallway, two bathrooms and bedrooms, a small kitchen, dinner table and couch that pulled out into another bed, and the four car seats at the front.

"Man this thing is slow." Wally complained. "I could have run there and back twice already."

Mr. Allen looked back at his nephew, "Relax Kid. Only one more hour and we're in the clear."

"That means two more and we're in the middle of nowhere." Roy whispered to Kaldur.

Now Kaldur had only just met Roy hours before when Mr. Queen had introduced them as they got the RV ready to leave. Roy was about a year older than his, a little taller and with a bigger attitude. But Kaldur had liked the moment they met. Roy seemed to like him too and they had defiantly connected during the seven hour long car ride to the camp grounds. Wally was dying to get out and run around, his uncle seemed just as impatient as he was vibrating in his seat. Dick was sitting behind Barry, playing on a gaming device. Kaldur and Roy sat on the couch.

Obviously Mr. Queen, who was currently on driving duty, did not find Roy funny like Kal did.

"If you think you can get us there any faster Roy be my guest. Oh wait! That's right you don't have a full licence yet! Hahahahaaa!"

"Not funny Ollie."

There was a couple of laughs from everyone, excluding Roy of course.

Barry looked at Kaldur, "So, Kaldur, do you have your licence yet? You are seventeen right?"

"Um, no I don't have a licence."

Mr. Queen chuckled, "Maybe the both of you can take lessons from Dick. Bruce had him driving at ten years old right Dick?"

Dick looked up from his game, "What?"

Two hours later...

"Finally!" Wally ran out of the RV and practically threw himself at the ground and nearly running into a tree.

The camp site was fairly big, big enough for the RV, two picnic tables and a fire pit and some room to run around. Everywhere was surrounded by forest and from what Mr. Allen had told them there was a river just down the trail where they could go fishing. They all stepped out of the vehicle and stretched. It had been a long ride.

"Man I thought we'd never get here." Wally complained.

"It wasn't that bad." Dick said.

Wally rolled his eyes, "I'm not used to long trips. Especially if I'm not running there."

Behind them Mr. Queen clapped his hands, "Alright kiddo's let set up the RV and then we can get our camp on!"

Roy did a face-palm and sighed loudly. Kaldur just smiled and helped set up the campsite. From then on it was great. After setting up the RV, Dick and Wally tried making lunch. Surprisingly Dick was a good cook, though Wally somehow managed to burn an egg while boiling it. From there Oliver had to call Bruce and Orin to confirm that they had arrived safely and there was no need to send a rescue helicopter. Later Oliver took Roy and Kaldur out to cut some fire wood. It had been a good bonding experience in Kal's opinion. Both he and Roy had profoundly expressed their hatred for being babied by the adults and had shared a few laughs when telling each other about their equally crazy guardians. Kaldur also found out that Roy knew Artemis and that his adopted father, Oliver Queen whom Kal had seen at the parent-teacher conference, also acted as an uncle figure towards Kaldur's blond friend. Both Roy and Kaldur had also agreed about the secret love going on between a certain red haired speedster and a blond archer.

By the time they got back Barry was prepping for dinner and the kids were allowed to go off and explore for a while. They ended up by the creek skipping stones. Kaldur was very good at it.

"Dude five in a row! How are you doing that!?" Wally couldn't get a single skip.

Kaldur shrugged and threw another rock. "We actually do not have this game in Poseidonis. Since it is under water. But we do have a game similar."

Dick threw a rock, "Asterous."

Everyone stared at him.

"What?"

"What the heck is 'asterous'?" Wally questioned. Even Kaldur had never heard of that word.

"Its the opposite of disaster. You know how disaster mean bad so the opposite of disaster must be aster which means good."

Kaldur's head hurt. "I-I don't get it."

Roy placed a hand on his shoulder, "Nobody does. Dick's been screwing with the english language since he was ten. Dives Jay and I crazy."

"That's where I remember you from!" Wally yelled. He, like Kaldur, had just met Roy. Kaldur thought for a moment, he too had remembered Roy from somewhere. And Roy had just mentioned Jay, which could be Dick's older brother. And when they had met Jason, he had said he was going to Roy's later.

Roy smirked, "Yeah. Jason and I have been friends for a while. Speaking of Jay..." Suddenly Roy had Dick in a head-lock and threw him into the creek. "Jay gave me twenty bucks to do that."

"Dude! Not cool!" Dick yelled from the water. Wally got down off a hanging branch and went to help Dick, until Roy kicked him in too.

"Roy you jerk!" Wally yelled. He ran out of the water at Flash speed and was suddenly behind Roy. The older boy instinctively grabbed Kaldur as Wally ran all three of them into the creek. All four boys now soaked to the bone in the creek. Dick grabbed Roy by the shoulders as he and Wally dog-piled on him in the water. This turned into a free for all as each boy splashed the other; Kaldur winning by far as the other three were no match for an Atlantian in water.

About ten minutes later, Barry showed up at the creek to see four tired boys laying in the turf, panting with wide smiles on their faces.

An hour later, the sun was setting and everyone was eating hamburgers.

"Great burgers Uncle Barry." Wally said between bites. He and Mr. Allen were on their fifth burger and still going.

"Thanks kid. After this though we'll get the fire going and we can finally have some s'mores."

Kal looked up from his burger. "Some more of what?"

"S'more's dude." Dick explained. "It's basically a rosted marshmallow with chocolate stuffed between two graham crackers."

"Oh... What is a marshmallow?"

"No one really knows. But they are delicious and gooy."

"Oh."

Once Barry and Oliver had the fire going it was almost eleven o'clock. They weren't very good at it. But Kaldur enjoyed his s'mores none the less. It had been one of the best things he had ever eaten and loved them so much he and Wally had a contest to see who could eat more. Of course both boys got big time stomach ache later. Barry and Oliver settled on some beers while the boys went inside the RV to make hot chocolate and change into pajamas. Roy had pulled out the bed from the couch so they could put on a movie while Kaldur made the hot chocolate and popcorn. He also made a large bowl just for Wally.

Roy had changed into some red and white striped PJ bottoms, leaving his chest bare. Kaldur had seen no reason to change since he usually slept in his clothes. Wally stepped out of one of the bedrooms with his arms full of pillows. He was wearing red and yellow PJ's with little lightning bolts on it.

Wally dropped the pillows onto the bed. "So we decide on a movie yet?"

Kaldur poured the popcorn into the bowls. "I believe Dick was picking out the movie."

And as it so happened Dick was walking out of the second bedroom, three movies in his hands.

"Okay so we have ZombieLand, Ten Thousand Leagues Under The Sea or Star Wars. My votes on Star Wars."

No body answered back.

"Guys? What?"

Wally looked at his friend sceptically. "Dude, what's with the shirt?"

Dick looked very puzzled. "What's wrong with my shirt?"

Even Kal thought it was strange. Dick was wearing grey track pants, which was normal. But the shirt kind of bothered him. For one, it was about two sizes too big. It was also black with a red Superman symbol. Kaldur had only seen one other person wear that shirt.

"Dude is that Conners?"

"Yeah so?"

Roy sighed. "Dick why do you have one of Conner's shirts?"

"What? Bruce and I went on a business trip with Conner and Mr. Kent and I forgot my pajamas so Kon lent me one of his shirts. Then a bunch of ninja showed up to kidnapp us or something and we beat them up and I never got around to giving it back." Dick said blushing. (A/N: didn't think I'd get some aster in did ya!?HAHAHAAAA!)

There was a collective 'ohhhh' in the RV.

So everyone settled in for watching Star Wars and eating popcorn and drinking hot chocolate. Roy had to explain some things to Kaldur when he got confused about the whole 'jedi and empire' thing, but Kal enjoyed the movie none the less. Later everyone settled in; Oliver and Barry having one bedroom and bunkbed, Roy and Kaldur taking the other while Dick and Wally shared the pull out. Kal could hear the two younger boys telling jokes and laughing until they fell asleep, all while he could hear the two adults snoring in the other room.

"Night buddy." Roy said from the top bunk.

"Goodnight my friend." Kaldur answered back.
