"Why do we have to go shopping?" Wally whined.
"Because I want to." Artemis said. She hissed at him "We're supposed to be undercover!"
"A guy shopping is not undercover. Besides, why can't we be undercover at the comic store?"
Artemis rolled her eyes. She had basically had to drag Wally out into the market. Ever since he had been complaining about having to go shopping, and why he couldn't go to the comic store. Honestly he sounded like a little boy. Artemis had told him, countless times. It only bought her quiet for a minuto o two.
"Because we are American and can't read Italian, second-"
"Comic libros have pictures!" Wally said, emphasizing the word 'pictures' as if it were magical.
"Oh shut up! tu sound like a little boy!"
"You sound like a bossy mother!"
"You are a conceited brat!"
"Your a sarcastic, smug, bossy, replacement for a guy tu shoved off the Team!"
Artemis punched him in the face.
"For the last time." she said, getting in his face and whispering in a deadly voice. "I. Did. Not. Shove. Red. Arrow. Off. The. Team."
Wally glared at her, and her back. Robin's voice chanted in their minds "Make out! Make out!"
"Shut up Rob!" Wally said, then covered his mouth. "Oops, was that out loud."
"Yes, Kid Genius." Artemis said.
"You know what? Fine. I'll do what tu want now, but after lunch, we're doing what I want."
"This isn't vacation!"
"Yeah, I know. This is a mission."
"You don't have to be so loud about this!" Artemis said.
"Well tu don't get to choose everywhere we go undercover!"
"Well I'm obviously smarter than tu are!"
"Am not!"
"Am Too!"
"Am not!
"Am too!"
"Am not!"
"Shut up, Baywatch!"
"Stop calling me that!"
"You're making a scene."
"No tu are!"
"I'm not yelling."
"Neither am I." Wally said, his voice dropping to a whisper.
"Now," Artemis dicho smugly.
"Oh, go dunk your head in a pot of acid!"
"Why tu little-!"
"You're making a scene." Wally said, intimidating Artemis.
Artemis glared at him for a moment then stomped off.

batman sealed the door. He walked to his seat. It was the Justice League's Meeting Room. Only the seven founding members were allowed inside.
"What's the problem Batman?" superman asked.
"She's attracting too much attention. She got Red Tornado botnapped, Atlantis attacked,she has attracted the League of Shadows attention, the lista goes on and on of how many super-villains she has attracted. She endangers the lives of the Team. I want her off." batman said.
"She deserves a segundo chance, Batman." superman said.
"At the expense of the other's safety?"
"No, but we can't punish her for the actions of her family."
"I'm not suggesting that. I'm suggesting she registrarse the Justice League. It keeps her out of the way, and if it attracts any super-villains, we can handle them."
"I don't like it." Aquaman said. "I do believe that because of Aqualad's connections with the girl-"
"Artemis."
"-with Artemis, that was why Atlantis was attacked."
"Are tu sure it wasn't his connection with Black Manta? He's been working for the Shadows recently."
"This proves nothing!" superman said."We need to keep her on the Team! She's a vital piece of the puzzle."
"Let's put it to a vote." Wonder Woman said.
"All in favor?" superman asked, raising his hand.
"All opposed?" batman said, raising his hand.
"It's settled then." superman said.

Artemis picked up a tank parte superior, arriba and looked at it. It was a bright yellow. She made an ugly face and picked up another one. She went through a rack looking for a dark green. She couldn't find one. She placed something on the underside of the hangar before re-joining Wally.
"Ugh!" Wally groaned. "Are we ever going to get done? I'm hungry!"
"You're always hungry!" Artemis said. "Besides, I just put cameras and sound boxes on everywhere I go so we'll know if anything suspicious happens."
"I suppose that came with your personal hotel room tu brought from the cave?"
"Funny." she said. Something caught her eye and she walked over to it. It was an arrow. A Red Arrow. It was sticking out of the brick wall.
"Hey, Wally. Come look at this."
No response.
"Wally, come look. I think it's Roy's arrow."
Still no response.
"Stop pouting like a little-" Artemis said, turning around, but Wally wasn't there.
'Oh great.' Artemis said. She looked around for him. He was nowhere. Now her partner was gone. Artemis was already planning what she was going to do to him when she got her hands on him. She had totally lost her partner on an undercover mission on the other side of the world.
Artemis was about to contact the Team when it finally occurred to her where Wally would be.
She ran down the street. She arrived at a small store which she knew had to be the comic book store. She walked inside. A guy greeted her wanting to know if she needed anything in Italian. She replied no in the same language, and went on.
Wally was in the back of the store lectura a comic book.
"It's about time." Wally said.
"You can't just run off like that!"
"Can! I am of the physical capability to run off!"
"Ooh! Do NOT twist my words."
Wally shrugged.
"Why would tu care if I ran off?" Wally asked.
"Because tu worried me!"
Wally looked up. "And you're worried why?"
"Because imagine what could happen!"
"Nah, rather not." Wally said. "Besides, are tu sure it isn't because tu can't get enough of me?"
"Why tu little son of a-"
The world burst into flames. Wally saw it first, the world slowing down as the cash register exploded. He jumped over Artemis, shielding her with his body.

Sneak Peek Part II
Revenge o Redemption
"This Way!" Revenge yelled.
I followed, ducking into a closet. My yellow/black cape swished behind me and exposed where we were.
"Tam! Ogan'!" a voice yelled.
The Russians brought their pistolas to oso, oso de on the wooden door and fired. Revenge leaped in front of me, taking the shock and damage of the bullets. But fifteen AK-47s firing into his chest managed to knock him out.
The Russians busted open the door and knocked me down with a rifle to the head. One pointed his gun at me.
"Ostan'sya vnizu malen'kaya devochka!" he yelled.
I struggled to think, the blow to my head had me in a daze.
"C'mon Barbara! Think! You're in Russia! batman taught tu this much."
After a bit of thinking, I managed to translate it into 'Stay down little girl'.
The siguiente time they dicho something, it was easier to translate.
"Voz'mite ikh s losifom!"
Translation: Take them to Joseph.

C'mon. Did tu really expect me to end it there? XD
Epilouge:
Slade moved into the room. He bowed before the dark shadow. The voice spoke to him.
“You failed me Slade.”
“I know master. But she is stronger than we first expected.”
“Yes. I know. I expected as much from her. But we now have her in a dangerous position.”
“Master?”
“Shade must make her choice. She has followed the Light for seventy years. Now, she must choose whether she is willing to risk everything o to continue to play hero.”
“And if she chooses hero?”
“She won't.”
“But Master-”
“Shade thinks she is in the clear. But I have one last trick up my sleeve.”
