Artemis could not take her gaze off of Wally's face. The deep cuts her father had made would leave nasty reminders of what had happened last night. She closed her eyes, trying to forget the cruel, satisfied smile her father had plastered on his face as she killed him. Yes, he was dead, but the cold memories of him still burned in her chest. "Would you stop staring please?" Wally insisted, meeting Artemis's gray stare. She lowered her gaze. "He never should have touched you. He never should have come after you." she said. "He never should have abused you." Wally says lightly. "But sometimes people do those things." She didn't respond. He knew this was a touchy subject to talk about. "Hey, you aren't the only one on this Team who has been abused." Artemis shrugged. "I feel like I am the only one." Wally sat in silence for a moment. "Well... you aren't." he said, gently pulling off his shirt. Artemis watched, blushing at how well-defined his muscles were, as he twisted around so she could see his back. "This is from when my dad came tahanan drunk. He sliced my back with a kusina knife." A long scar ran down Wally's back. "So believe it or not, we have madami in common than you think." She sat quietly as he slipped his sando back on. "How do you even cope with this?" she murmured. "I feel whoever I'm with will do this to me." Wally reached for her hand. "Do you feel that way now? Here with me?" he asked. Artemis opened her mouth to speak, but Dick had walked into the room. She looked at her hand, entwined with Wally's. She shook her head. Wally smiled. Dick crossed over to the kama where Wally was laying. "Hey bro. Artemis." he said. "I have some..." he paused, glancing over his shoulder. "Problems. I need your help." The two glanced at each other. "What is it Dick?" Wally asked. "You... you remember how my parents... disappeared?" Artemis cocked her head. "They disappeared? I am so sorry Dick." she sinabi sympathetically. Wally glanced at her. She doesn't know they were murdered, he realized. Dick closed his eyes. "I found... I found who took them away from me." Wally released Artemis's hand and sat up. "Who?" Dick sighed. "Tony Zucco." There was an uneasy silence. "Zucco." Artemis repeated. "As in the major crime boss?" Dick nods. "Where is he?" Wally inquirers angrily. "Downtown Gotham. Major drug bust down there." The ginger gets out of the kama and stretches. "When is this drug bust supposed to be happening?" Artemis asks. "10:45 tonight." sagot Dick. "Then that is when we will go." Dick nods and turns to leave. "Thanks." he whispered. He left the room. "Poor Dick..." Artemis whispered, staring after him. Wally faced her. "Artie... there is a chance ad might not make it back. And I need to know something before we risk our lives." She smiled. "We risk our lives everyday Baywatch. Why is it so important?" He places his hands on her shoulders. "Because pag-ibig can disappear if you don't hold onto it. Artemis. I pag-ibig you so much. This hero game is getting too dangerous for us. I can't madala to see you in danger anymore. I pag-ibig you. I want to protect you. Please, let me do that." Artemis gazed in shock at him. What is he asking of me? Say yes! I can still protect myself. I don't know. So many thoughts were racing through her mind. "What are you saying Wally?" she questioned. He stared at her. "I am 20 and you are 20. This isn't too young." he dropped to his knee. "Artemis Crock. Will you, please, marry me?" Artemis gasped. "I know I don't have the ring yet but..." She smiled. "Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes!" He grinned, stood up and picked her up all in the same moment. "I pag-ibig you." he whispered. "I pag-ibig you too." Artemis replied, leaning into him.

“Hey Jim!” I called out.

All I could think about was the past. Staring at my brothers body, it made it harder to forget. Fang making fart jokes at the school through our cages trying to make me laugh. Me jumping on the kama trying to wake Fang up, laughing when I "accidentally" kicked him where it counts, him shoving me off the kama and onto the floor I stood there the past drowning out the battle in the background. I felt hands on my shoulders, followed sa pamamagitan ng shaking.
"Nudge? Nudge c'mon! We've gotta go this place is gonna blow!" I didn't budge. Still Nawawala in sea of emotions I choked down a sob as tears filled my eyes.
Yeah, yeah. I know it's short

The plants tounge latched to her heart, she felt panic as her eye sight went fuzzy. A long dagger came darting across the room hitting the deadly plant, splitting it in half making stickly plant ooz spill everywhere. The familiar mask of Red Revenge hovered over her and scoped her up in his arms, princess style.
"Quick we need to regroup and get out of here, or supey over there is going to bring this whole place down and all of you along with it" Revenge said. Superboy looked up after hearing the word Supey, Megan levitated over to them "Ok I will get everyone of the bioship" She began to levitate off. Phoebe groaned "No megan wait, the x-jet is faster!". Artemis pulled out a smoke palaso and fired it and super man before lucas grabbed her hand and pulled her away. Eclipses eyes turned purple, roulette awoke from her dumapo in Eclipses room "Roulette the blade!". The raven hopped under the kama and flew out again with a silver breif case in her tallons.
