Sorry about not updating sooner. School's crazy. Enjoy~
Rule #21: There is a reason why Artemis is on this team. You should not miss with her weapons, costumes, or hair. Especially the hair.
You know, normal days for normal people is not the same normal for these heroes. From now on, we'll be calling their normal days un-normal days. Because, really, the normal days for them are the ones when they're saving the world. Right now, they were in the middle of an un-normal day where the League had been actually nice and forgiving and hadn't instilled a punishment for their crazy adventures. Kaldur was watching TV for the first time, along with Robin and Kid Flash, while M'gann and Conner got lovey dovey in the kitchen eating chocolate.
"BAYWATCH!" Artemis' yell broke through the peace in the mountain, making the red head stiffen up, and the ninja-hacker snicker evilly.
"Dude, not cool." Wally hissed at him, all the while cowering behind Kaldur.
Kaldur looked behind his shoulder, only to see the speedster was shivering and all of the color had left his face. "Wally, what did you do now?" He asked, tired of the speedster's antics.
"This time it wasn't me, Kal. Rob framed me." He said.
And while Kaldur didn't want to believe him, he somehow knew he was telling the truth. He had never seen the younger man so scared except for when he confronted Zoom, and even then, he didn't look so scared.
And then the source of Wally's fear entered the room. Artemis' hair was completely shocking pink, with light pink highlights, and her usually green clothing was also green. She glared at Wally and went to attack him, but Kaldur managed to stop her, all the while Robin cackled evilly.
"I'm going to KILL YOU, KID STUPID! YOU'RE AS GOOD AS DEAD!" She yelled, seeming to forget the fact that Kaldur was the leader and she would get in trouble if she scratched his face.
Kaldur was going to kill the little devil.
Rule #22: Playing Nerf War's with any of our rogue's is not considered training or a means of team bonding. But we may think you are going to turn evil, so it is ill advised.
"Wally, you take the left! Me and Kaldur will take the right!" Jason yelled at the ginger as they were bombarded by the foam bullets of the green team.
The teens had decided to divide into teams. One hero with one villain and a left over. Jason was with Kaldur and Wally, Hartley was with Artemis and Raquel; they were the green team; James with Robin and Conner; they were red; and Harley with Roy and M'gann; apparently she wanted to get away from the Joker and she actually enjoyed spending time with teens without killing them; and they were the orange team.
The green and red team's were the biggest threats, just because the orange was having too much fun joking around while also shooting at whatever came near them. It was still a surprise to everybody there to see Roy actually having fun with a psychopath and Martian helping him. They had ended up in an abandoned warehouse that the Rogues' had stocked with boxes, traps, crates, and many more things.
Wally jumped to the left and shot blindly, somehow managing to hit Artemis in the middle of her vest. He rolled on the ground after he finished that less than amazing jump, then hid behind a 'toxic' waste barrel. It was just filled with fudge.
"Darn it!" Artemis yelled, surprising the people there by not swearing.
"Does the Bat have a rule for that too?" Wally asked nobody in particular, then looked over his shoulder to see if anyone else was there.
He was only a few feet away from the flag. A quick sprint and he would get there. There were few rules in this game of Capture the Flag: No gum throwing, no mud slinging, no beating people up with hammers, no gadgets except for your gun, and no superpowers.
"I'm going for it!" Wally yelled at Jason over the sound of Kaldur's Tommy gun, and started the run for the Flag.
He was so close, his fingertips almost grasped the blue hilt, and BAM! He slammed into someone's chest. Wally fell back onto his butt, and he lost his grip on his gun, making it slide to the right. He wanted to curse whoever this person, wanted to yell at him for costing him the flag, and then he looked up. All of the color drained from his face.
"Kid Flash." Batman said in a growling tone, his mouth a tight line.
But, just like most of the encounters Wally has with Batman when Jason is around, a foam bullet hit Batman in the chest, making him blink in surprise. Then another. And another. And another. And then a hail of bullets was falling on the Dark Knight.
"Move, Wally!" He heard someone yell, and he smiled when he noted it was Harley. Always count on a deranged clown.
He sped out of the way, only for a giant hammer to fall on the spot where he was, and on Batman. Wally smiled down at the crushed man, then sped towards the back of the warehouse, only to find everybody there.
They all stared at each other for a while, then Wally smiled, and asked, "Ice cream?" He asked.
And the joking atmosphere was back.
Rule #23: No random dance parties.
"Children, this is not a surprise." Lex Luthor said, "At all." all the while glaring at the teens that Bane had found.
It had been a simple mission, go in, get the information, get out. But, this was their mission. Nothing was ever easy for Young Justice. Bane had found Superboy, and his forces had taken the rest of the kids. They had tied up the teens, then sent them to Lex Luthor. Now they were here.
"Well, if it were, it isn't pleasant." Kid Flash told him, ignoring the fact that he was at Lex's mercy.
Lex glared at him, and started to rant about how he was going to take over the world.
"This guy talks more than Trickster!" Wally exclaimed, rolling his eyes as Lex said that they were incompetent children.
"I feel like dancing." Robin muttered.
And a plan popped into Wally's devious mind. There was a radio to Luthor's left, and the man was too deep in his head to notice Wally's evil smile.
"Arty, you see that radio?"
She frowned at the nickname, "Yeah, what are you thinking, Baywatch?"
"Our ticket out of here."
*Break line*
"Shut it off!" Lex yelled as the loud music blare through the speakers.
He knew he shouldn't have installed those darned things, and now there was a clear reason why. That archer girl had shot an arrow right to the radio, which turned it on, and the speedster ran towards it, set it on a hip hop station, and turned the volume up so high that the windows started shaking.
The green girl had started dancing awkwardly along with the clone, the Atlantean twirled the archer around; even though they were completely against the rhythm of the song; and the troublemakers; Robin and Kid Flash; were break dancing. Lex wanted the kids gone. Now.
"Bane! Get in here!" He yelled into the intercom, only to have it spark at him.
"That ain't goin' ta work, Lexy!" The speedster yelled, dancing his way towards the bar.
Why are they dancing? Did they not know they were in trouble? This was Lex Luthor, the world's most important man, and they weren't scared? What has happened to the younger generation? No more respect. Lex pikced up his cell phone and dialed the one person that could help.
*Break line*
Superman's Lex phone ran as he finished tying up some bad guys, making him sigh. Without a doubt, Lex was in some kind of trouble... Again.
"Superman." He answered the phone.
"Get your brats out of my office!"
Rule #24: No kidnapping Roy and the team for a bonding day.
"Roy! Roy! Roy! We're in trouble!" Wally yelled, knocking on the fellow ginger's door with superspeed.
Roy opened the door abruptly, glaring down at Wally, but the young boy just continued knocking on Roy's chest, not noticing he had opened the door.
"Wally! Stop!" Roy yelled as Wally continued knocking on his body.
Wally smiled sheepishly at him, "Dude, are you a rock or something?" He asked, but quickly got serious. "Roy, I'm in trouble."
Roy's eyes widened and he quickly pulled Wally into his apartment.
"What did you do now?" Roy growled.
But Wally was gone. He looked around the room, trying to find the boy, but found nothing. And before Roy could react, Wally hit him in the back of the head. As Roy slumped to the ground, Wally pressed his comm.
"Got him."
*Yet another Break line*
When Roy woke up, he couldn't help but hiss at the headache he had. What had happened? He opened his eyes, only to see the most worrisome thing ever. Wally with a party hat, along with Robin and Jason. These clowns were dangerous alone, imagine if they were all together.
"Did the League have you on Hood Watch?" Was the first thing Roy could think of.
Wally seemed to deflate, and crossed his arms. "I'm not crazy."
Roy rolled his eyes, and tried to move his arms, only to find them bound behind the chair. "I don't think you're crazy, Wally. I just believe you are developing Stockholm Syndrome."
Jason fronwed at him, and said, "Hey, I haven't done anything. The kid dragged me here."
Roy rolled his eyes, and said, "Doesn't matter. Just untie me and I won't tell the League." He really didn't want to mess with two crazy gingers today.
You know, when you think about it, all of the superhero ginger's; but Roy; were crazy. Wally is, Shayera Hol seems to have a few screws loose, and Jason wasn't the sanest person around when he was alive the first time.
"Where am I?" A new voice asked, making Roy turn to the person to whom it belonged.
"Seriously? You kidnapped the rest of your team?"
Rule #26: Just because you have powers, it does not mean you can overuse and abuse them.
Saying that everyday was a normal day in Keystone City was like saying that Gotham was infested with filthy rattlers. In this city, life threatning situations only happened about twice a year, and that was something, especially considering who the city's hero was.
Wally West was a bored youth in high school, much like any other inhabitant of the Earth, but he had one problem. He was a speedster. He was always moving around, being jittery and causing trouble. After his fifth referal, his uncle had made him take some classes, and now he could not cause any more trouble, unless he wanted to be suspended from the team.
He slammed his head against the lockers, looked up at the clock on the wall, and slammed his head again. Only a minute had passed since his latest dodgeball beating, and in one minute he would be beaten again. But, a quick thought crossed his mind. He smirked evilly and walked out of the locker room, radiating swagger.
"Hey, look at that, West wants another beatdown." Pete, one of the school bullies, said.
Wally smiled at him, then told him, "Come on, Pete, me on one side, and your hoard of gorillas on the other."
He wanted to rile Pete up. He wanted to get revenge. You see, Pete and Wally go way back. Wally was the science nerd, and Pete was the boy who needed help in science. When Pete had made Wally do his homework, Wally had said no, and things went down a bad road. Now, seven years later, Pete still held the grudge and bullied Wally everyday.
"This will be fun." Pete said, signaling one of his goons to give him a ball.
And the boys walked into their positions. Wally held only one ball, and the six gorillas; including Pete; held two each.
"Begin!" Jade announced, eyeing Wally with worry.
One of the boys threw the first ball at Wally, but the ginger somehow managed to evade it. Ball after ball was thrown at Wally, but he somehow managed to worm his way out of their path. And soon enough, the bullies were left without balls, and Wally still held his own.
"My turn." He smirked, and before anyone else could react, he had thrown the ball and hit Miguel in the gut.
The ball bounced off of him, but before the goon closest to him could grab it, another red ball hit him in the back, making him fall forward. Another ball hit three goons in a row, one in the face, the other in the gut, and the last one in the groin. Pete looked around him, surprised to see all of his lackeys on the floor, and then looked up at Wally with fear.
The smirk was evil and cold. "Mommy." Pete squeaked, right before his vision was filled with a red rubbery ball.
I skipped Rule 25 so I can combine it with Rule 27. They go hand in hand. Three reviews and I'll update tomorrow.
