So longer summary: It has been three months since Robin, Kid Flash and Speedy turned bad. It all started without warning when Robin double crossed Aqualad, nearly costing him his life. It was about this time that Roy resurfaced after being missing for months and they teamed up. Wally joined shortly after, leaving his friends and family behind without a word. The three of them dropped off the grid for a while despite the League's best effort. During this time rumors surfaced about the heroes that had 'gone bad.' Trying to stay under the radar the three off them took on odd jobs for shady folks. It wasn't until recently that things got bad, and when they did everything changed. The Young Justice team wants desperately to believe that their friends have a good reason, but it is getting harder to trust them. (I really hope you like it.)

Prologue-One week before the start of the story

11:00 P.M. Young Justice HQ

Artemis sighed as she walked into the cave, ignoring the annoying mechanical voice that announced her arrival. She wasn't in any mood for mechanical voices or whatever else went along with being a hero. From the second she woke up she knew this wasn't her day, in fact the last few months just hadn't seemed to be her day either.

Even though Mr. Smarty-pants and Baywatch could get on her nerves they were still part of her family. And with one as screwed up as hers she couldn't afford to be picky. She had grown so used to their presence that now that they were gone she felt… annoyed. Roy on the other hand she had called months ago. It was officially on Justice League records that she expected him to knife her in the back. He just had a shifty look about him. Still when push came to shove it was Robin that did the backstabbing. Kaldur had nearly died. If someone hadn't found him when they did the team would have to start holding tryouts to fill all the empty spots.

She frowned, the whole thing bothered her. Of all people to turn rough she had a hard time believing it was Robin and Wally.

Robin was the freaking son of the guy who single handedly ran both the team and the league. Robin had been doing this since he was eight. He put completing the mission above everything and everybody. Why of all things did he choose to go dark side? Wally on the other hand stumped her for different reasons. His life was literally an after school special. He was so transparent you could use him as a window, a really annoying window. Wally was the definition of wearing his heart on his sleeve. Simply put he had no filter. Roy aside if she had to pick the two people she had trusted most it would have been the two of them.

Somehow without her knowledge the team had managed to work their way into her heart. It honestly made her want to cry, and everyone knew Artemis didn't cry. So instead she got pissed.

Perimeter Breach in sector 3 the robot voice announced annoyingly as the alarms began to blare loudly, echoing throughout the cave.

She cussed again louder this time. Her day was just getting better and better. She pulled her bow out of her quiver fastening the string with trained quickness.

"Megan, Kaldur, Conner, I need back up." She yelled hoping one of them was home. Sprinting over to sector three as fast as she could manage she shot out a few of the blaring alarms on the way. Intruders she could deal with, however the symphony of dying animals was getting on her nerves.

"Freeze." She yelled drawing one of her many arrows and angling it at the intruder. They were dressed in subtle stealth colors sitting at the main computer typing furiously. They didn't look up on her appearance only pissing her off more. Instead they continued to type faster than her eyes could keep up with.

"I said freeze." She yelled again firing a warning shot at their feet. This gained her some attention. The figure turned around slowly raising their arms slowly in surrender.

"Robin?" She gasped, the breath knocked out of her from shock. After all these months he showed up to just casually hack the main computer. And of all things he broke in, they did have a front door.

"What the hell?" She breathed, it was the only things that seemed to fit. Still she refused to lower the bow even an inch, she was not going to end up like Kaldur. Robin just stared at her his face unreadable.

"Robin, what are you doing?" She asked hating how her voice sounded almost weak. Instead of answering Robin looked through her upon the approaching team mates. Mega, Conner and Kaldur approached quickly hissing loudly when they saw who the intruder was.

"What are you doing?" Superboy screamed mirroring Artemis. However his rage was barely concealed. Artemis believed he felt the same about the betrayal as she did, annoyed. Megan and Kaldur were a different story. They were both too kind and trust to understand that they had been played.

"Robin, you are outnumbered, don't make this any harder than it has to be." Aqualad said slowly trying to keep the situation calm and appeal to the rational side of his friend.

Robin glanced at the four of them all with their weapons out and fists raised. He surely was out numbered.

"Get on your knees." Aqulad said, keeping his even tone even though tension could be heard. When Robin didn't move Superboy got angry.

"Now." He yelled taking a menacing step towards him. Artemis cocked her bow as well bringing it up to focus on his head.

To their surprise Robin dropped to his knees fluidly like they had ordered. Artemis blinked in shock, she had never expected Robin would listen to them. Kaldur gestured with a jerk of his head for her to approach him. After all if something went wrong she could kill him the fastest. So she walked closer tension in her shoulders, waiting for a reaction from Robin that never came. One second she was approaching him ready to shoot at the slightest movement, and then she was on her back panting. In a huge gust of wind she was knocked onto her back. For the millionth time that day Artemis cursed everything as she sat up robbing her chest painfully. There at the center of the room stood Wally West. He stared down at her passively, his face mirroring Robins. The little pick had pushed her down. Kaldur and Superboy rushed forward to take him out.

Megan gave a warning yell but it was too late. In the confusion of Wally's appearance they had forgotten about Robin, a lethal mistake. Artemis reached for her bow, but it was too late.

In a flash Robin pulled the flash drive out of the computer. Shielding his eyes he pulled a flash grenade from his belt. An arrow whizzed by his head, but it was already too late. The impact of the explosion threw its trajectory off. She screamed with the rest of the team as the shock wave sent her to the floor, debris hitting her skin painfully.

"Is everyone alright?" Kaldur asked shakily.

"Megan?" Superboy called worriedly.

Artemis turned her attention away from them to the empty room. The computer was smashed to bits, it had taken the brunt of Robin's bomb. Of course the two of them were nowhere to be seen. Grabbing her bow once more she raced out of the room. No way in hell they were getting away.

Sprinting as fast as she could she ran through the main room and out the back entrance? There in the light from the cave stood Wally West glaring at her but refusing to move. Why was he still here? Where was Robin? Questions circled her mind but she pushed them aside for now.

"Freeze." She told him warningly.

Of course he didn't listen, he never does. He didn't before he turned bad so why would he now? Without further hesitation she fired a shot directly at his chest. He dodged this one easily and all the others she shot at him without much effort, just like sparring. However unlike sparring he didn't taunt her. The silence was eerie.

"Wally Why are you doing this? What reason do you have?" She begged temporarily halting her fire. He didn't even try to explain, instead he stared back at her coldly.

For a few moments the two stared at each other coldly, like mortal enemies. Clearly their powers were too evenly matched. Kid Flash couldn't come closer without being shot, but Artemis couldn't shoot him either if he kept moving around like he was. In the end it was the static of his radio that snapped him out of it. "Kid Flash, mission completed, head back." Robins emotionless voice came through the speaker. For the first time since he had got here she saw emotion on his face. His tense shoulders lifted slightly and the crease in his brow softened. But before Artemis could even process what just happened he turned to go. Without even glancing at her he made a move to sprint away.

At that moment something in Artemis snapped. She had enough of family members leaving her, she thought it wouldn't happen again, that this time would be different. But once again they were leaving her. Without registering what she was doing she fired an arrow directly at him. She watched as a feeling of dread came over her. That shot wasn't a warning, it was meant to kill. Wally's green eyes went big as he spun his body in attempts to save his vital organs. In the end it did hit him, lodging itself through his calf with a horrible crunch.

He gave a strangled moan of pain a he collapsed onto the ground writhing. Artemis was frozen for a second as what she had just done came rushing back to her. She shot Baywatch. Lowering her bow she took a step towards him. "Artemis what are you doing, he's getting away." Kaldur yelled running up behind her, shocking her out of her trance. But before either of them could move Robin skidded up on a motorcycle heading straight towards them. The two of them barely had time to jump out of the way. He pulled to a stop suddenly acting as a wall between the two of them and Kid Flash.

"Get on." He yelled at his injured friend. Groaning at the effort Kid Flash raced towards the bike hoping on the back grabbing his friend for support.

Recovering once again Artemis fired shots rapidly after them as Kaldur tried to pursue on foot. But Robin's erratic movement and pace was too fast for them. The motorbike gracefully zipped in and out of the surrounding trees. They were getting further and further ahead by the second, still she pursued them. It wasn't until they had vanished completely from sight that Kaldur placed an anchoring hand on her shoulder.

"Artemis stop, their gone."

She yelled in frustration shooting the trunk of a nearby tree in anger. After a few minutes of wasting arrows she lowered her bow. "What now?"

Kaldur frowned and looked up at the stars. "Now we call the League."

1:00 A.m. Metropolis outskirts, abandoned house

Not bothering to knock Roy flung open the door walking into the run down house. He dropped his duffle bag onto the table next to Robin who didn't look up.

"How did it go?"

Roy grunted in response going over to the fridge to raid the empty shelves.

"The jobs done." He said pulling out a half-eaten can of black beans. "How about yours?"

Robin kept his gaze on the computer screen in front of him as he continued to type furiously. "It could have been worse."

"It also could have been better." Wally groaned from the coach as his pain meds began to kick in.

"What happened to him?" Roy asked giving up on finding a spoon and consigned himself to eating his dinner with a plastic knife.

"Artemis shot hm." Robin said turning away from his computer to look at his injured friend.

"Is it bad?" Roy asked walking over to prod Wally's foot.

"Yes." Wally moaned as he slapped Roy's hand away

"Robin shook his head, it could have been a lot worse, for the most part it missed his muscle and bone but it did tear it up a little, he's going to need a few days to recover."

Roy gave Wally a sympathetic look, "What were you even still doing their? The plan was for you to escape while Robin rigged the explosives." Wally shrugged looking away from his friends clearly not willing to answer. Roy sighed and went to sit down across from Robin.

"What's happening?" He asked as Robin adjusted the ear bud.

"They found my bugs?" He said his voice impassive. Also Super Boy destroyed a wall.

Roy sighed resting his head on the worn table. Robin glanced over at his sluggishly bleeding arm in concern. "Do you want me to get that for you?" Roy shook his head, "Its fine, what I want is some food."

"You and me both!" Wally yelled from the coach.

"I hate to be the one to remind you but we are broke." Robin said leaving his precious computer to get the first aid kit despite Roy's protests.

"Yeah, like that's stopped us before." He said wincing as Robin began to stich his wound closed.

"Well Wally's out of Commission and I am a little busy right now."

Roy grumbled again pulling him sleeve back down, "Yea, I'm on it."

Being an ex-Hero came with many draw backs but the skill set was the exact same. It surprised the three of them how easily their training carried over to the 'their side' of life. Pickpocketing and stealing were just the tip of the iceberg.

"Be careful." Robin called over to him as he made his way back to his laptop.

"Aww, Robin looooves you." Wally laughed, still loopy from the pain meds. "That's okay, I loooove you too."

Robin rolled his eyes at his friend as he continued typing. Roy sighed as he pulled on his coat wincing slightly from his fresh injury. Purposely adjusting his watch so it wasn't muffled by the coat he grinned slyly. "Soon we will have all the money we could ever want." He told his friends as he ducked out into the cold night again.

Wally stared at Robin with a mindless smile, "Then we can go to the base thingy and play with the big computer and…"

"Wally!" Robin yelled shooting out of his chair causing it to fall over. "You are high as a kite, you took way too many pain meds, let's get you too bed."

Wally laughed again staring intently at the ceiling as Robin helped him off the coach and down the hallway to his room. He began cracking up hysterically when they passed a peeling wall.

"You are an odd one." Robin said but smiled fondly none the less. For the first time all day he was content. The big house wasn't so lonely when he was with these two knuckle heads.

2:00 A.M Young Justice HQ

Batman narrowed his eyes at the destruction, the main computer was totally trashed. Seeing his confusion Miss Martian filled in the banks. "The computer was destroyed by the flash Grenade, it was meant for us but it took a big hit."

Batman shook his head disagreeing, "No, he destroyed the computer purposely to hide what information he took from it, he just made it look like an accident so no one would get suspicious. The team stared at Batman surprised. Robin was really serious here, this wasn't a break in this was war.

"Was their anything else?"

Aqualad nodded, "one of them, my moneys on Robin, bugged the cave." He handed Batman a tiny hearing device. "We deactivated them."

Batman inspected it carefully. "Are you confident you found all of them?"

Aqualad nodded. "What was the point of evesdropping?"

Batman shook his head once again, "Another distraction." He looked around the room spotting an air vent. Walking over to the wall he tore off the cover, unsurprised when it came off so easily. He moved aside so Green Arrow could shine his flashlight into the dark vent. The team sucked in a breath quickly. Dozens of Robin's explosive disks lined the vent going further back then their eyes sight did. He was truly trying to kill them.

"Why are they doing this? Super boy yelled losing control of his anger. "First they back stab us now they're out right attacking us, WHY?"

Black Canary sent him a warning look to control his anger but he was too far gone to listen. Instead Kaldur put a hand on him shoulder as a gentle sign to silence himself. Super boy shrugged the hand off but closed his mouth all the same.

"What are they trying to do?" Artemis asked after carefully counting to ten in her head to calm herself. Clearly the angry response wasn't getting them anywhere.

This time it was Black Canary's turn to talk. "We do not know, but this was clearly a direct attack on the team, from here on out they must be regarded like an enemy. They knew exactly what would happen when they attacked. They must now be ready to deal with the consequences."

Megan tried to protest but she was stopped by her uncle who shook his head sadly.

Wonder Woman shifted her attention to Batman, "Shouldn't we get the bombs out, they could go off at any time, he might find out we discovered them."

Green Arrow laughed humorlessly, "He already knows." He promised catching everyone's attention.

Batman held up another listening device that was hidden among the explosives, the green power button was blinking furiously causing the teens to freeze, Robin had heard the whole thing

Wow that took me more hours than I would like to admit. Please Please review it would make me so happy This story is supposed to be more Dick/Wally/ Roy centered but it defiantly has A LOT of the team and the league in it. This chapter didn't really do a good job showing that. I don't know how Artemis became the main character in this chapter, but I looove her. Lol I dropped so many waaay too obvious hints in this chapter that it physically hurts me. Please tell me what you think about it and if you think the boys are still on the Teams side or if they really betrayed them.
