Wally had a piece of paper and pencil, and was explaining something to Robin.

"If GH can stand for P as in Hiccough, OUGH stands for O as in Dough, PHTH stands for T as in Phthisis, EIGH stands for A as in Neighbour, TTE stands for T as in Gazette, EAU stands for O as in Plateau, then the right way to spell POTATO should be: GHOUGHPHTHEIGHTTEEAU."

Robin stared at this a minute, then took a pillow and smacked a laughing Wally with it for a good 30 seconds until M'gann said, "It's starting!"

The scene started with a bridge's structure partially falling apart, with the cables snapping, falling across the road, and a school bus trying to avoid them.

This was met with exclamations of shock and alarm from the whole team as the scene unfolded on the screen in front of them.
"I know this!" Connor suddenly exclaimed, "It's before the Ivo mission!"

Robin suddenly went very quiet, and exchanged a wary look with Wally. This, however, went unnoticed by the others, who were watching the screen.

More semis and cars swerved and wrecked, before one hit the back of the school bus. It began tipping over the side of the bridge, and the camera panned to focus on a skyscraper with "WAYNE" written on the top.

Wally started choking on his drink, while Robin muttered an expletive so quietly that only Connor picked up on it.

"Why are we looking at a Wayne skyscraper?" M'gann asked. Connor shrugged, and Artemis and Kaldur didn't really think anything of it.

Wally, though, was frantically sending silent looks and gestures to Robin, who was clearly unnerved and hoping to dodge a bullet here.

A man in a business suit, Bruce Wayne himself, was watching out the window at the scene before him.

"Isn't that Bruce Wayne right there?"
"Hey, it is!" Artemis observed, nonplussed.
At this point Wally smothered his face with a pillow, and Robin suddenly exclaimed, "Hey guys, lets go stretch our legs, we've been in here for ages and my legs are all cramped up and before long Wally's gonna be bouncing off the walls from sitting so long and you know what this is getting kind of boring anyway lets go for a walk or a run for ten minutes maybe and kinda just loosen up cause I'm getting restless what about you so ya lets go like right now!"

Wally agreed with almost aggressive enthusiasm, while everyone else looked at them funny, then turned their attention to the screen.

Turning towards his desk, he tilted the head of a Shakespeare bust back to reveal a red button.

"Cool, press it!" Artemis exclaimed, finding the mystery behind this fun.
"What do you think it does?" M'gann asked, excited.
"Cliche." Connor grunted.
"Press it!" Artemis and M'gann yelled.
"Don't press it," Robin moaned under his breath,

Pressing it, a drawer opened, revealing a folded up suit of Batman.

Kaldur paused the video.

The sudden silence was deafening. Blaring. Thunderous, even.
M'gann broke the silence by whispering cautiously, "Bruce Wayne is….Batman?"

Everyone's gaze was locked on Robin. Who gave a fake laugh and said, "Of COURSE he's not Batman, it's just -" but was cut off by Artemis, who's mind was working at a million miles a minute.

"It all makes sense, the money, the equipment, the motive for crime fighting cause his parents, the perfect cover, the ability to influence anyone or anything as one of the richest and therefore most powerful men in the world, and, and…." her eyes widened as she stared at Robin, "and YOU!" she shrieked the last part, "Richard Grayson, the circus orphan!"

Robin started slowly getting of the couch and distancing herself from her, while trying to come up with something to say but ended up stuttering, then mumbling, then deserting English altogether.

"Look Artemis," Wally bravely started, but she rounded on him and yelled, "And YOU! You've known the whole time! All the jokes and hints and puns you two make, and the -" she stopped, with a look of dawning realization, and whipped back around to face Robin, yelling again as she went, "WE'LL LAUGH ABOUT THIS SOMEDAY?!"

M'gann, Connor, and Kaldur had been sitting back with stunned expressions, watching Artemis, Robin, and Wally like a tennis match going back and forth.

"Bats is gonna kill us," Wally muttered to Robin, who he'd moved towards as Artemis had started getting really mad and shocked.
"Not is she kills us first," Robin mumbled.
"Gotta catch us to kill us," Wally pointed out, and with that they both took off.

It took Kaldur a while to get everything settled down again, in which M'gann and Connor took the time to actually look up Richard Grayson online. The search results were extensive, and they were able to keep busy while shouting, laughter, minor explosions, and Kaldur's reprimanding tones echoed in the Cave around them.

Eventually everyone was seated and civilized again, with Artemis brushing glitter out of her hair and giving the Disastrous Duo dirty looks.

"So…does this mean you still have to wear the sunglasses, um, Richard?" M'gann tentatively asked.
Robin laughed. "You can call me Dick. But I'd rather leave them on right now, cause it'll just be awkward with you all staring at me. You'll need an adjustment period, and now's not a good time. Wally was bad enough when I first took my shades off. You know what he said?"
"Dude, shut up," Wally muttered, embarrassed.
"He goes-"
"Dude, come on! Shut it!"
"Lemme tell it! I take my shades off, and he ends up staring for like 30 seconds, direct eye contact (which isn't at all awkward), and then says, 'wow, you've got the deepest oceans in your eyes'," Robin told them, laughing at his best friend's embarrassment.
"I just meant that they're really blue," Wally pouted.

"Anyway," Robin continued, "We're on a time table, remember? Artemis, stop looking me up on google and watch the screen."

Wayne's attention was again directed to the bridge when Superman arrived with a loud crack, and he flew to the bridge. Holding up the the bottom up to stop it from giving away more, Superman used his heat vision to weld the cracked metal beams back together.

"Get 'er done, Superman," Wally commented,
"I can't believe you're Richard Grayson," Artemis numbly said, shock finally settling in.
"Q and A later," Robin replied.
"But how are we supposed to pay attention when we just discovered your identity?" Megan questioned, and Connor agreed.
"This is why I left the shades on - keep watching guys. Once in a lifetime deal here, remember? Gotta get through the footage before the League intervenes?"

Superboy was suddenly shown, leaping onto the unstable bridge and rescuing the vehicles that were almost over the edge.

His arrival was met by applause and cheering from his teammates - it was nice to be appreciated.

Bruce Wayne was watching Superboy with high-tech binoculars when things switched back to Superboy, who was trying to rescue the bus, and kind of struggling to do it.

"It must be hooked on something," Wally observed. Connor's teammates kept shouting words of encouragement.

He fell backwards as the weight was suddenly gone - Superman was lifting the bus into the air, then back down onto safe, solid ground.

"Hey, you had that!" Artemis complained.

"I had that." Superboy said, approaching Superman.
"I didn't want to take the chance." Superman replied. "As it is, your landing could have destabilized the entire bridge."

"Oh." Wally breathed out. Superman did kind of have a point. "Well, not everyone's as light on their feet as twinkle toes over here," he continued, and getting punched in the shoulder by Robin.

"It didn't." the clone stated.
"But it could have." Superman pointed out. "We don't yet know the limits of your powers."

"Look at the kids in the bus - they must have been geeking out so hard," Wally pointed out, laughing.

"But maybe, you could, you know… help me figure that out." Superboy haltingly suggested.

"Seeing as how he's the only other Kryptonian around!" Robin agreed, shaking his head at Superman's hard-headedness.

"Batman's got that covered." Superman told him, shooting down the request for help.

Robin scoffed at this. "Right. Like he's got a manual for kryptonian clones. Really bringing your A game today, Supes."

"I know, but -" Superboy tried to explain, but was cut off when Superman answered his comm.

"Superman." the Kryptonian confirmed. "Wait, Arrow. Slow down."
"What's attacking? No, I'm definitely available." Superman continued, turning away from Superboy and his hurt expression.

"That last part was downright mean!" M'gann exclaimed, "He's definitely available?! What a brush off!"

"Coordinates? Acknowledged. On my way," Superman finished his radio conversation.

"Sorry… Superboy," he said, "Duty calls." Taking off, he answered another call on his com. Answering it, he said, "Already got the alert, Bruce."

"I know, Clark. But we need to talk." Bruce replied, talking into phone as he watched from the Metropolis Wayne building.

"Oh, wow. He doesn't sound happy," Wally laughed, not wanting to be in Superman's shoes.

"No wonder you were so upset that day, Connor," M'gann sympathetically told him.

"So I guess he was on his way to help with Amazo," Robin observed.
"Heh, good times." Wally commented.

The scene switched to Mount Justice, showing the words 'Mount Justice, August 3, 13:06 EDT' on the screen.

Kaldur had just lost a computerized air hockey game to Wally when the computer announced, "Recognized, Superboy B04."

Robin and Wally started laughing at Kaldur's disgruntled look at losing.

"Act your age, twerps." Artemis told them, rolling her eyes.

"Hi, Superboy, how was Metropolis?" M'gann asked as the clone walked by all of his teammates, ignoring them.

"Now I get why we were getting the silent treatment," Wally noted.

Artemis snorted in amusement. "You guys just stood there and stared at him!"

Black Canary's voice was then heard; "Ready for training, everyone?" she asked, entering the room with Martian Manhunter.

"Black Canary! Uncle J'onn!" M'gann exclaimed, before rushing to give her uncle a hug.

"M'gann - I was in the neighborhood, so I thought I'd see how you were adjusting." Manhunter greeted, happy to see his niece.

"A few bumps..but I'm learning!" M'gann told him.

"That's all I can ask." her uncle warmly told her.

"That was very sweet but….very bad timing," Robin said, cringing. No wonder Connor had gone all rage-monster that day.

Observing the interaction between M'gann and her uncle, Superboy turned away to leave when Canary stated, "Stick around. Class is in session."

"Short session, though." Robin recalled.

Moving to the center of the room, the computer activated the training platform, lighting up under Canary's feet.

"I consider it an honor to be your teacher." she told the team, "I'll throw a lot at you. Everything I've learned from my own mentors - " Canary was cut off with a sound of pain as she took her jacket off.

Everyone cringed for her.
"She still kicks ass, though." Robin stated, smirking at Wally who punched him in the shoulder.

"And my own bruises." she finished. Her bandaged arm was clearly visible.

"What happened?" M'gann asked, concerned.

"The job." Canary told her in a business tone, tossing her jacket aside.

"That what happened to your arm, Rob?" Wally asked, giving his friend a penetrating look. A white bandage was just visible under Robin's sleeve.

Crossing his arms in from of him, Robin mumbled, "Something like that."

"Now, combat is about controlling conflict, putting the battle on your terms." she explained,"You should always be acting, never reacting. I'll need a sparring partner."

Robin outright laughed at this, and even M'gann started giggling. Wally just cringed at the screen.

"Wonder if she planned that speech," Artemis commented.
"Probably." Wally replied.
"She did." Robin confirmed, looking at something on his phone.

"Right here!" Wally immediately volunteered, his hand shooting straight up.

"This is gonna be good," Artemis gloated, leaning forward in her seat.

"After this," Wally said, walking over to her and ditching his banana peel, "I'll show you my moves."

Artemis facepalmed at this, shaking her head. "She's gonna cream you."

Canary smirked her 'Imma take you down hard rookie' smirk, then threw a punch, which Wally was able to block, but followed up with sweeping Wally's legs out from under him.

Wally groaned while everyone else either laughed, or applauded Canary.
"Why does the universe hate me." Wally complained.
Robin was still laughing; "You didn't even last two seconds!"

Wally landed hard on the ground; Kaldur, M'gann, and Robin jumped a bit at the impact, slightly startled looks on their faces.

"Hurts so good." Wally quipped, still lying on his back on the ground.

"Good block." Canary told him, helping Wally up, "But did anyone see what he did wrong?"

"Ooh, ooh!" Robin quickly piped up enthusiastically, "He hit on teacher and got served?"

"Smart ass," Wally grumbled while Artemis was crying from laughter.
"I feel sorry for Black Canary." Kaldur commented, shaking his head in exasperation.
"Ya, well, I feel sorry for me," Wally pouted, "A little sympathy wouldn't be amiss!"
"Nah, you had that one coming. Do the words 'flour bomb' have any meaning to you?" Artemis countered.
"Changing the 'S' symbol on my shirts from red to pink," Connor added,
"And my glowsticks," Kaldur contributed.
"Hey, Robin gets part of the blame for that one!" Wally protested, and gave his friend a pointed look.
"Worth it," Robin muttered under his breath.

"Duude!" Wally directed towards Robin in a betrayed and 'don't embarrass me any more' tone.

"Traitor." Wally accused Robin, narrowing his eyes at him.

"He allowed me to dictate the terms of -" Canary began, but was cut off as Superboy scoffed, "Oh, please. With my powers, the battle's always on my terms. I'm a living weapon, and this is a waste of my time."

Artemis laughed nervously then went, "Oh boy."

"Prove it." Canary insisted, with a challenging look in her eyes.

Connor crossed his arms, grumpy and embarrassed at the scene about to happen.
"It's alright Connor, she's pounded all of us into the ground and left us with only enough feeling in our body for embarrassment," Robin tried to comfort.

Superboy walked onto the training platform; they both set their faces in determined expressions, then got into a fighting stance. Superboy threw the first punch, and Canary grabbed his arm, flipping him over her head and onto the ground.

"Oh!" "Oooh!" "Ow!" and pained laughter echoed throughout the group as they watched the fight.

Robin started pointing and laughing as Superboy's fail; Kaldur nudged him with his elbow, giving him an 'act your age' look. Well, one might suppose that that in itself is the problem.

"Oh, very mature Robin. Very mature," Artemis scoffed, rolling her eyes.
"Such a twerp," Wally laughed, "Thank goodness Kal is around to keep you in line."

So Robin covered his mouth with his gloves to muffle his laughter.

Laughing again, Robin tried to sincerely apologize; "Sorry Connor, I wasn't laughing at you, I was laughing with you!"
Kaldur snorted. "He was not at all laughing."
Robin waved his comment away, saying, "Beside the point."

Superboy got back up, growling and infuriated as he faced Canary again.

"You're angry. Good, but don't react." She told him, "Channel that anger into -" but she cut cut off as Superboy growled and charged at her; flipping over him, she was able to sweep his legs out from underneath him from her low vantage point. Superboy fell hard on his back again, with the computer showing 'FAIL' once more.

"Aw man, tough luck!" Artemis sympathized.
"Don't worry man, we've all been there," Wally added.
"Yep; lying on the cold hard ground," Robin concluded, nodding knowingly.
Wally gave him a look. "Dude."
"Hey Wally, you still listen to the radio when in the shower?"
"Shut up."

Everyone spectating looked on with wariness and sympathy, wincing at the takedown. Well, everyone except Robin.

Who was clamping his hands over his mouth again to stifle laughter. How mature of him.

Artemis threw a pillow at the 13 year old.

"That's it! I'm done." Superboy told Black Canary, who put her hand on his shoulder and told him,"Training is mandatory."

He shook her off, but any retort was cut off by a transmission from Batman.

"Well that was excellent timing," M'gann noticed.
"Well ya, he's Batman," Wally replied.

"Batman to the cave," he said as soon as the screen appeared. He didn't bother to exchange pleasantries, and got right down to business.

"Five hours ago, a new menace attacked Green Arrow and Black Canary. The attacker was capable of studying, then duplicating the powers and abilities of its opponents. Arrow called in reinforcements, which nearly proved disastrous, as our foe gained more and more power with each new combatant."

"Holy crap," Artemis breathed out, shocked at hearing the actual briefing.

"Whoa. One guy with the powers of the entire League?" Wally said, while everyone including himself looked shocked and in awe.

"In the end, it took 8 leaguers to defeat and dismantle the android." Batman told them.

"Wait, and you guys took in down yourselves in less than an hour!" M'gann exclaimed, looking at Robin, Wally, and Connor.

"Artemis helped too," Robin pointed out.

"An android?" Robin asked,"Who made it, T. O. Morrow?"

"Good guess, Robin." Batman said, looking at him directly from the screen, "But Red Tornado doesn't think so."

"You can actually notice his voice get slightly softer when he addresses Robin…" Wally suddenly noticed, sniggering. The kid had Batman wrapped around his finger.

"The technology bears the signature of…Professor Ivo." Martian Manhunter told them.

"Ivo? But Ivo's dead." Aqualad said.

"So we all thought - or hoped." Canary replied, turning to glance at Aqualad.

Artemis sighed, and addressed Connor and M'gann. "It sucks to be new, out of the loop, and therefore not knowing exactly what everyone's talking about."

"To make certain this threat is permanently neutralized, we're sending two trucks carrying the android's parts, to two separate S.T.A.R. lab facilities in Boston And New York for immediate evaluation." Batman continued again.
"Every precaution is being taken. We'll have 4 additional decoy trucks to create confusion In case Ivo or anyone tries to recover the remains. You will split into undercover teams to safeguard the two real trucks."

"Yes! Road trip." Wally happily exclaimed.

"It was a pretty cool trip," Wally pointed out.
"I particularly enjoyed the peace and tranquility of it," Robin said.
"Ya, very relaxing." Wally sarcastically agreed. "Totally relaxing."
"Completely relaxing."
"Would you two shut up?"

"So now we take out your trash?" Superboy asked, still angry.

"You had something better to do?" Batman countered, and Superboy backed down. Well, you'd have to be more than a Kryptonian to backtalk The Batman.

"Actually, I didn't." Connor recalled.
"Well, you could have spent the time brooding," Wally offered,
"No, he was doing that the whole trip anyway," Robin negated. Connor launched a pillow at his chest, which knocked the wind out of him and resulted in general laughter all around.

"Coordinates received." Aqualad confirmed, "On our way."
And with that, the team ran to leave. Canary held Superboy back; "When you're ready, I'll be here," she told him.

"Well thats nice." Wally said.

'Litchfield County August 3 20:08 EDT went across the screen as 6 cargo trucks were zoomed in on from a distance. The Amazo android was in pieces, being crated and loaded while armed guard and members of the League stood watch. Superman, who was part of the guard, looked through the underbrush a little ways away, in which the team was taking cover behind until the trucks were ready to go.

Superboy seemed to notice this, and looked right back at him, but Superman turned away as soon as they made eye contact.

"Awkward…" Wally noted.
"I don't understand the logic of ignoring the thing thats right in front of your face, as if by not acknowledging it, it'll go away," Robin said, "Roy tries it all the time but it still doesn't make us disappear off his couch."
Wally snorted in amusement at this; well, it was true.

The trucks closed their doors, and the drivers reported, "S.T.A.R. Boston is a go. "S.T.A.R. Manhattan is go."

"They sound so badass, but sure freaked when the demon monkeys attacked," Wally said.

Batman signaled for the trucks to take off, and as they did, the team split into two squads and followed behind them on motorcycles.

"Now, M'gann, Connor; you guys had some training on riding the motorcycles beforehand, right?" Artemis asked.

"Technically." Megan offered as a meager answer. She and Connor shared a look. Artemis facepalmed.

The League members who had been overseeing the safe take-off of the android started taking off, but before Superman could leave, Batman put a hand on his shoulder and said, "I told you, we need to talk."

"Man, thats one of those phrases that gets your mind racing, and subsequently your heart. Makes you think of every single thing you've done that day, week, month…" Wally shuddered.

"Especially when it's Batman saying it," Robin snickered.

The progress of Aqualad's, Kid Flash's, and Miss Martian's squad following the trucks was shown, as well as the progress of Robin and Superboy's smaller squad. It was a beautiful drive.

"Well it's a nice route," Artemis observed.
"Ya, the highlight of that mission for me was the scenery," Robin smarted off, "I made a scrapbook and everything."
"I didn't know you did scrapbooking," Wally sarcastically played along.
"Only on my days off."

Coming up alongside Superboy, Robin started conversation. "If dislike is the opposite of like, is disaster the opposite of aster?" he asked, "See, instead of things going wrong, they go right!"

"Ah. so thats where that one came from," Wally noted.
"Actually, and Aster is a flower," Artemis told them, talking around a snicker bar.
Robin leaned his head back and threw his hands up in exasperation; "I KNOW it's a flower, I've been informed of this 150 times already, why does everyone feel the need to relay this information to me!"

Wally snickered at Artemis' shocked expression at this outburst. "O….kay then."

Superboy didn't answer, and stared broodingly ahead, ignoring Robin.

"Guess the whole 'ignore it and it will disappear thing' is genetic," Wally said. Connor launched a pillow his way.

"Kidding…I was kidding," the speedster backtracked breathlessly.

"Uh, clearly you're not feeling the aster." Robin noticed, "What's wrong?"

"So would 'not feeling the aster' translate to 'not feeling the flower power'?" Wally innocently asked. He grunted as he got an elbow to the kidney.

"Canary." Superboy confided, "I mean what business does she have teaching combat skills, to a guy with super strength?"

"At least you're opening up," M'gann pointed out.
"To the right guy, too. Only person better to get advice about the hero gig from is Kaldur," Wally added.

"Taking down stronger guys is part of the gig," Robin explained, "Canary learned that the hard way. Same with Batman and, well, me."

"Ya, just look at the last mission."
"Shut up Artemis."

Instead of replying, Superboy accelerated ahead of and away from Robin.

"Sorry," Connor told Robin.
"It's fine dude," he reassured.

Aqualad's squad was then shown.

"Do you think Superboy's ok?" M'gann asked, "I wasn't reading his mind, I swear, but anger flowed off him in waves."
"Surfed that wave." Wally replied, unconcerned, "Just give him space. Me? Stick as close as you want," he finished, moving his bike closer to hers as he flirted. M'gann had an 'I am not impressed' expression on her face.

"You look so done, M'gann," Artemis laughed.
"I bet yoga would help with the anger management thing," Robin off-handedly commented. Connor glared at him.

"Superboy just needs time to cool off." Aqualad reasoned, "A quiet mission will clear his head."

"Aw, ya jinxed it, Kal!"
"Ha! No such thing with this crew!"
"That level of optimism is unrealistic,"
"Quiet…mission? Does not compute."

No sooner had Aqualad finished saying this when green, crazy, creepy, laughing robot monkeys erupted out of the cornfields near the highway the team was traveling on.

Connor's jaw clenched visibly, which was kinda hot, but still a warning sign. Megan put her hand on top of his and leaned further into his side.

"I don't know what are worse, those or the ones from the Wizard of Oz," Wally said.
"Wouldn't know," Robin stated while cherry-picking the jelly beans.

They proceeded to cling to the truck like leeches.
"Robin, Superboy, our truck is under attack." Aqualad radioed.
"Kinda figured." Robin replied, and it was shown that their truck had monkeys all over it too.

"I love how you are so chill about it," Wally laughed, shaking his head at the almost non-concern Robin had.
"I hate these things already," Artemis commented.
"Just wait till the laughter is stuck in your head," Wally told her.

"I hate monkeys." Superboy then said, dead serious.

"Now that, I believe." Robin said.

The robot cretins were banging against the windshield, freaking out the driver who started to swerve to try and fling them off the truck.

"What happened to the badass demeanor?" Wally asked, laughing.
"Well that is an uncomfortable situation," M'gann pointed out.
"Ya, I doubt they cover that in driver's ed," Robin agreed.

"Robot monkeys! Haha! Totally Ivo's tweaked style." Robin exclaimed.

"You're enjoying this too much," Artemis noticed, giving Robin a scrutinizing look.

Pressing a button on his bike, the back end detached, and it transformed into a small weaponized robotic aircraft that fired at the monkeys.

"Wait," Wally realized, "Why were you the ONLY person to do that?!"
"That is a great question," Robin replied, rolling his eyes behind his sunglasses.

"Hey, hey!" Robin said to Superboy, sounding like he was enjoying this too much, "Switch your ride to battle mode!"

"What is this, some arcade game to you?" Artemis huffed,
"Pfft, no! You gotta pay for arcade games," Robin said, smirking at her.

"No point," Superboy replied, jumping straight off his motorcycle and onto the top of the truck, immediately attacking the monkeys.

"Bad idea bad idea bad idea!" Wally chanted; he knew how this particular move would end for his best pal.
Connor facepalmed; "Sorry, Robin," he said, his voice muffled under his hand.

Superboy's abandoned bike going at who knows how many miles per hour started to crash and spin…Right into the path of Robin, who followed up with exclaiming, "Or not!" before he leapt off of his motorcycle, shooting a grappling line onto the back of the truck so he could pull himself onto it. The two riderless bikes behind him crashed as he started attacking the robot monkeys.

"Sweet," Wally approved.
"I am, aren't I," Robin agreed.
"Well, when you're not all 'break you face is you get crossways',"Wally replied. Robin rolled his eyes behind his shades.
"Dont roll your eyes at me, I saw the concrete wall in the gym!" Wally retorted,
"What happened to the wall?" M'gann asked.
"Not here, I meant at his place," Wally told her.

Using their laser eyes, the monkeys were using them to cut through the metal of the truck. Superboy and Robin kept up their defense of the truck, while the small weaponized robotic aircraft was assaulted and taken down by the monkeys.

"It's amazing how soon you can lose the upper hand in a fight," Robin complained.
"Or your partner," M'gann teased, good-naturedly elbowing Connor. He just sighed.

One of the little green robotic creeps managed to shoot it's lasers into Superboy's eyes; he yelled in pain, and while unable to see, 4 monkeys lifted him off the truck, carrying him high into the air before dropping him; he landed hard on the pavement.

Cries of "Oh, Con!"
"Sorry man!"
"That's terrible!"
"Were you alright?"
"Thats really rough," sounded across the room, in sympathy for Connor.

Superboy's eyes were red and irritated, his vision blurred as the truck moved away from him. Closing his eyes, he used his superhearing to clearly pick up on the monkey's laughter, fueling his rage even more.

"This is turning disastrous really fast," M'gann noticed; and they weren't even onto the second team's attack yet.
"Imagine the damage that would have done to a non-kryptonian," Artemis said, cringing at the thought.

Kicking off the pavement, he took a giant leap into the air towards the truck. However, it was then that the scene switched to the other truck, where Aqualad was using his water bearers to knock off the monkeys, and Miss Martian and Kid Flash ditched their motorcycles for flying and running.

"The bikes are always broken," Wally morosely said with a sigh.
"Well good thing Connor and M'gann are so committed to fixing them," Robin innocently commented. Kaldur coughed to cover up his laugh, while Connor glared at Robin, who remained overly-innocent looking. It seemed as though only Kal and Robin were in on the joke.

The flying, laughing monkeys were all over the windshield, freaking then driver out and blocking his view. "Somebody, help!" he exclaimed.

"It would make more sense to say that into a radio," Wally pointed out.
"Let's see you drive with those cackling little green beasts on your windshield," Artemis replied.
"But the drivers still could have used the radio," Robin said.

On top of the truck, the monkey had cut the metal roof and peeled it back; guards fired at them, but to no effect as they dived in to where the cargo was being held.

Robin was once again muttering the 'who what where when and how's' about the cameras that captured all this footage…
"It's very strange seeing the mission from this perspective," M'gann noticed.

Miss Martian and Kid Flash were destroying and knocking monkeys off the truck, and Aqualad was doing the same with both his water bearers, riding his bike handless.

"Look Ma, no hands!" Robin exclaimed while everyone got really loud and enthusiastic, really impressed by Kaldur's moves; now that was awesome.

Kid Flash managed to flip on top of the truck, while M'gann had used her shapeshifting to sprout a bunch of arms, which she used to knock off more monkeys.

"Its so cool actually being able to see ourselves do all this," Wally said, "I mean, tell me that all of this doesn't look total badass."

"Yeaahhoh!" Wally exclaimed in shock and surprise at seeing her.

"Oh ya, real badass," Robin laughed.

She did the same, and put her extra arms away. Not a second later they were under siege again, while inside the truck, the monkeys burned a huge hole through the back of it, then took off flying with their half of the Amazo android.

Wally, M'gann, and Kaldur all groaned.
"Crap," Artemis offered as condolences.

Aqualad screeched to a stop, taking off his helmet and watching as the monkeys left with the dangerous cargo.

"We know the feeling," Robin and Wally said at the same time.
"It sucks," Wally added. Kal just sighed.

The scene cut back to Robin, who was still battling the monkeys on the back of the truck; climbing to the top, he took out two eskrima sticks. Spinning them rapidly in a brief warmup, he charged the monkey robots, taking out all of them in his path. More jumped up, but Superboy did too at that moment, tearing them off.

Impressed sounds emitted from everyone present.
"You guys sure are doing better than us," M'gann noticed.
"So far…" Connor trailed off, sighing.
"Nice moves," Wally complimented.
"It was a little bit sexy," Robin had said to the speedster; he'd been trying to goad Wally into admitting it since Robin's awesome moves were shown on screen.
"Fine." Wally reluctantly, exasperatedly agreed, "It was sorta kinda sexy."
Artemis gave M'gann a 'can you believe these two' look.

Two of the accursed robotic beasts went and blew the tires with their laser vision, causing to truck to swerve out of control.

"no No NO," Artemis exclaimed,
"Not the tirrrres," Wally moaned; failure is painful to watch.
"What a disaster," M'gann said in a huff of breath.

"Get - out!" Robin told the driver through the windshield, and when the driver opened the door, Robin took hold of him and flung both of them away from the truck, into the cornfield.

"Do you have any idea how much it hurts to be flung into stalks of corn at that speed? It's enough to break your ribs," Robin complained, rubbing at the phantom pains in his torso.

"It's gonna roll!" Artemis yelled in alarm,

The truck started barrel rolling , with Superboy and the monkeys on/in it. When it stopped, there was an explosion, and through the big hole created, the monkeys flew off with their half of the Amazo android.

Exclamations of "Whoa!" "Oh!" "Wow!" "Shoot!" and "ohmygosh!" sounded throughout the room at the wreck,
"Were you guys okay?!" Megan anxiously asked,

Supporting the driver, Robin walked out of the cornfield and set him on the ground.

"Well, there's one okay," Artemis said, watching the screen intensely,

The truck tipped over again; Superboy had been underneath it, and pushed it off. He watched the monkeys fly away through blurry vision, their mind-raking laughter ringing in his ears. Gritting his teeth in anger, he took off in giant leaps after the monkeys.

"So both of you are okay," M'gann continued, relieved.
"Sorry for taking off," Connor said to Robin again.
"Dude, you don't have to keep apologizing."
"Did your eyes heal?" Kaldur asked Connor, who nodded yes.

"Superboy!" Robin yelled, but Superboy payed no mind.

"Aqualad to Robin, we lost our cargo." Aqualad radioed, at that moment. "Did you -"
"It's gone." Robin replied, frustrated and exasperated. "And so is my partner," he continued, watching as Superboy's figure got smaller in the distance.

"You look like an abandoned puppy," Wally teased.
Elbowing him, Robin replied, "Watch it, I bite."
"Get a room," Artemis hooted.
"I - not like that!" Robin huffed, scowling at her.

The scene switched to Superboy following the monkeys.

"Kaldur to Superboy. Radio your position. We'll help you."
"I don't need help - don't want any!" Superboy exclaimed, taking his radio piece out of his ear and throwing it on the ground.

"Don't give into hate - that leads to the dark side," Wally advised Connor, who rolled his eyes. Robin and Wally had shown him Star Wars last month. And okay, ya, he wanted a lightsaber. Shut up.

"Superboy?" Aqualad asked again.

The scene switched to Aqualad, Miss Martian, and Kid Flash.

"Man, none of you guys are doing so hot," Artemis noticed.
"Well we weren't exactly feeling the aster," M'gann said.
Robin shot Wally a smug, victorious look.

"I think he ditched his com." Robin said over the radio.

"Su-per. Now we can't even track him." Kid Flash exclaimed.

"Very clever pun, Wally." Artemis sarcastically drawled.
"Hey, I was frustrated."
"Clearly."

"He's out of my telepathic range." Miss Martian told Aqualad.

"This professor Ivo, if he is alive, seems to be two steps ahead of us." she stated. "Mmaybe…wwe should contact Red Tornado?"

"It's like going 'MOM!' Ivo took my android!' 'Well did you take it from him first?'," Robin joked.
"Man, how embarrassing it would have been to have to say, 'Um, hey sorry but we lost the deadly superpowered android parts you sent us to protect after 8 of you guys spent the whole day fighting it," Wally said, cringing at the thought.

"Tornado always tells us to handle things ourselves. And the mission can still succeed if we recover the parts before they're reassembled." Aqualad told her.

Everyone just laughed.
"Ya, we nailed that part too," Wally scoffed.
"Such a disaster," M'gann moaned.

"Well, that's a great plan, except for the part about us not knowing where to look!" Wally countered.

"You were obviously having a bad day, weren't you," Artemis said, sympathetic yet still laughing.
"Who wasn't?"

"Maybe we do." Robin told them over the radio, and the scene switched back to him, pulling out a wire from his wrist computer and plugging it into a monkey.

"I honestly don't know what this team would do without Robin," Artemis commented.

"We'd have heard by now if the decoy trucks had been attacked. So how did these monkeys know exactly which trucks to target?" he said, while typing on his computer.

"Well those were the only trucks with escorts," M'gann pointed out,

As a screen pulled up, he exclaimed, "Ha! The parts have gps! The monkeys can track the signal, which means I can track them with the one I captured." Robin announced, pulling up a map showing the two sets of moving android parts.

"Nice," Artemis complimented.
"Wasn't it kinda just lying there dead?" Wally pointed out.
"It was in my custody, therefore I captured it," Robin retorted.

"It looks both sets of parts are converging on…" Robin suddenly had the look of someone hearing a family member is in the hospital, as he said, "Gotham city."

Artemis snorted. "Hit a little close to home, Grayson?" she asked Robin pointedly.
"I'm never gonna hear the end of this," Robin moaned.

Things switched back to Aqualad's squad for a moment as Aqualad said, "That far south? M'gann and I won't get there anytime soon. I'm sending Kid on ahead to meet you. Aqualad out."
Putting his goggles on, Kid Flash took off, heading south.

"I feel a little better now that you're going to rendezvous," Artemis said, "but this still ends messy."

Things switched back to Robin again, who was holding the captured monkey. Pushing a button on his wrist computer, he automated his crashed motor bike, which righted itself and drove to Robin's stranded position several miles away.

"Is he like the only one who knows all these features for the bikes!?" Wally exclaimed, irritated.
"Well I did help design them," Robin remarked.

"Definitely a disaster," Robin said to himself, as smoke billowed out of the truck behind him, "Heavy on the 'dis'."

"Your mind works in very weird ways," Wally said.
"Ha! I'm not the one who's swallowed a penny here, moron," Robin replied indignantly.
"Nooo, just fire," Wally said under his breath. Robin smacked him.
"Ow."

The scene switched unexpectedly to Bibbo's Diner. The screen had 'Metropolis August 3, 21:18 EDT go across the screen.

Confused exclamations of

"Wait, what?"
"Why is this shown?"

"Alright, which one of you stopped at Bibbos?!"
"This isn't part of the mission,"
"Why….?"
But what was shown on the screen next shut everyone up. Only Robin uttered a small, "oh."

Facing each other on different sides of a booth, two men in business suits took their order.

"Is this really….?" Artemis skeptically trailed off, watching the men on screen.

"Apple pie," the one in glasses said to their waiter. The other man had a menu obscuring his face, but closed it and requested, "The devil's food."

"NO WAY," Artemis shouted,
"That's Batman!" M'gann squeaked, "And…Superman?"
"They look normal!"
"What are they doing?"
"Well ordering dessert, obviously."
"Would it kill you to not be a smartass for like, 2 seconds?"
"Probably."

"Something tells me this isn't about dessert," Clark said warily.

"Naw, Batman takes the Leaguers out for dessert every other Wednesday!"
"Really?"
"I was kidding."

"The boy needs you," Bruce stated.

Connor looked down, embarrassed. He appreciated Batman actually caring.
"At least Batman's looking out for Connor," Artemis commented.
"Us too!" Wally and Robin exclaimed, turning to Connor for confirmation. He just sighed and agreed. He wasn't sure if being taught to unicycle counted as being 'looked out for'. Guess it was just Robin and Wally's way of showing affection….and laughing at his expense.

"No - he…needs, you. He needs Red," Clark countered, "I'm just a constant reminder of what he's not."

"Connor was trying to reach out earlier that day! How could Superman say that?!" Megan exclaimed,
"Somebody's in deniiiiial," Wally and Robin said at the same time.

"Sorry, Clark, but you're dead wrong." Bruce told him, and they just looked at each other for a second.

"Thats an…interesting choice of words," Artemis snickered.

"Look, I know he… troubles you, but he's here," Bruce continued, "You have to get over the how and why."

"That is a very wise outlook," Kaldur observed in agreement.
"Who woulda thought Batman a better parent than Superman!?" Artemis said in disbelief.

Giving Clark a harder stare, Bruce said, "Trust me on this. This boy needs his father."

"Ooh - bad choice of words," Wally said, wincing,
"And just when he was getting Superman to listen!" M'gann agreed.

"I'm not his father," Clark replied, standing up to leave, then addressed the waiter behind the counter as he said, "I'll take that pie to go."

Robin was tsking Superman. "Running away from the problem, very mature."
"Okay don't kill me for saying this, but it kinda looks like he just ditched Batman. I mean Bruce Wayne." Artemis said, laughing a little bit.

The scene switched to the flying, laughing monkeys carrying their crates of android parts to a train on the outskirts of the city.

"Oh, so the Gilmore Girls scene is over?" Wally asked.
"You watch Gilmore girls?" Artemis immediately inquired, her head whipping around to stare at Wally.
"N-no, of course not!" he retorted, while Robin fought to keep a straight face.

The door to one of the cargo cars was opened by robot monkeys, and the ones carrying the cargo entered it, the doors sliding shut behind them.

"What a dramatic change in tone," M'gann noticed.
"Ya. And its also frustrating, I mean, we know what happened, but seeing everything from everyone's point of view as the whole thing played out is super weird, and still frustrating cause we know the end result anyway and cant change it," Wally noted.

Superboy was only a few leaps behind, and landed on the train car. Ripping a hole into the metal roof, he dropped into the train car; at the furthest end of it was a short, redheaded man surrounded by the green robotic spawns of satan.

"Oh. hello," the man greeted in an irritating voice.

"Oh hell no." Artemis stated.

"You? You're Ivo?" Superboy asked, unimpressed. "I'm whelmed."

Robin slapped Wally in excitement, at Connor using the word. M'gann laughed and squeezed Connor's arm.

"You're one to talk," the professor replied, "Now, since when does the big blue boy scout have a brat?"

"It's complicated." Wally said.

"He doesn't!" Superboy retorted.

"Yeah, if you say so," Ivo conceded, uninterested in the topic.

"It's hilarious how he shrugs it off. He's probably like, 'eh - teenagers'." Artemis laughed.

"Have you met my Mobile Optimal Neural Quotient Infiltrators?" Ivo asked, referring to the monkeys as they attacked Superboy.

"Destroy them!"
"Superboy smash!"
"No mercy!"

He destroyed them in short order, to Ivo's disappointment.

"Ah. And after all the trouble I went through finding an acronym for MONQI."

"Well that's pretty desperate." Robin stated, "He must have wanted the abbreviations for 'MONQI' as much as Peggy wanted the abbreviations for 'SHIELD'."
"We're not supposed to talk about that." Wally reminded him.
"What? Who now?" Artemis asked.
"Nothing. It's just relevant to someone who had a date."
"Huh?"
"Shh."

"Access Captain Atom," a robotic voiced droned, and Superboy was hit by a laser-like beam of light, sending him to the ground.

Everyone exclaimed and cringed in sympathy for Connor.

"Since professor Ivo's magnificent MONQIS don't float your boat, maybe my amazing Amazo will better suit you - or better slay you," Ivo gloated, as his large, red-eyed, intimidating, fully-superpowered and assembled android approached Superboy in the distorted, dim light.

"Get out of there!"
"Crap!"
"Time to make like a tree Connor!"
"What does that even mean?!"
"It's a Back to the Future reference!"

Picking himself up off the ground, Superboy said, "Give me your best shot."

"Please. My android has the strength of Superman. What chance do you have?" The professor told him in an easy, arrogant, self assured tone.
Superboy attacked Amazo with a vengeance, and every blow was blocked except one, which did less than zero damage.

Groans sounded throughout the room; this was painful to watch.

"Oh, sorry. Did that strike a nerve?" Ivo asked, "Amazo, strike a few more."

Amazo delivered a brutal punch, before saying, "Access Black Canary," and using her high pitched cries to attack Superboy's ears and toss him into the wall again.
"Access Flash," Amazo said, punching Superboy with superspeed until he collapsed.

Wally, Artemis, and Robin were all yelling unintelligibly, and M'gann was tightly gripping Connor.

"Oh. No wonder daddy keeps you hidden away," Ivo's sleazy voice said, "You're not really doing justice to the old "S" shield, are you? Ha!"

Superboy tried to come up with another punch, but Amazo said, "Martian Manhunter," and Superboy's punch went right through him, and just set him up for another brutal hit from Amazo; one that sent Superboy through the back of the train car, and into a bulldozer strapped to another train car behind it."

"Oh my gosh!" Artemis exclaimed.
"How are you even alive dude?!" Wally followed up.
"It sucks watching and being able to do nothing!" Robin said, frustrated.

"Access Superman." Amazo said, picking Superboy up and punching him so hard that he sailed through the air, all the way into the window of a large building probably a half a mile away.

"Craaaaaaap!" Wally yelled, pulling his hair anxiously.
"Wait, that's Gotham Academy!" Artemis exclaimed, while Robin swore.

Turns out it was a school Superboy had been hurled into, as he crashed into desks, his momentum slowing down until he completely rolled to a stop on the floor.

"Finish him. Priority alpha," Ivo ordered the android, which flew to Superboy's landing site.

The scene switched to Robin, who was just passing the Gotham City Limits on his motorcycle, clothed in his Robin uniform instead of his motorcycle-wear; not a moment later, Kid Flash sided up next to Robin, keeping pace with him.

"Nice of you to drop by," Robin told Wally, smiling.
"Well I wasn't about to let you and Supey take ALL the credit,"

"So you changed, too?" Robin asked in greeting.
"You kidding? I feel naked in civvies," Kid Flash replied, "You still tracking the parts?

"Aaaaand here's where things are gonna get fun!" Artemis over-cheerfully stated.

"They were heading through Gotham, but they veered," Robin said, watching the parts moving on his map.

"Are they…"

"Ya."

"Wait…" Robin said, as the Amazo parts on the map approached a building on the digital labeled 'Gotham CIty Academy'.
"Dude, they're at my school!" Robin exclaimed in absolute shock.

"Of ALL the places this showdown went down, of COURSE it happens at Robin's school," Wally said, laughing.
"The school administrators had freaked," Robin told him, "But hey still had enough time to repair the damage before school started."

The scene switched to Gotham City Academy, where the camera was zoomed in on a picture of Richard Grayson holding a trophy, that said '2011 Gotham Academy Mathlete Honoree Dick Grayson'.

Everyone's gaze swiveled to Robin again, who just loudly shouted, "WHAT?!"
Wally just snickered and coughed 'nerd', and if looks could kill Artemis would be the deadliest woman in the world. She started grumpily complaining/mumbling something that sounded like 'we'll laugh about this someday'.

The camera zoomed out, showing the whole trophy case…

Which was completely shattered a moment later as Superboy was hurled into it by Amazo.

Robin put a hand to his heart at witnessing the destruction of the trophy case.
"It's okay, be strong," Wally said, patting Robin's shoulder, fighting to keep a straight face, "be strong."
"I'll try."
"Would you two shut up?!"

Picked up again by the android, it hurled him into a row of lockers, one which had a drawing of Superman in it, with stars and hearts all around the hero.

"Traitor!" Robin shouted, at seeing the drawing, "And I know who you are!"
"So you'd rather have the picture be Batman with a bunch of hearts and stars drawn around it, instead of Superman?" Wally asked, amused. This only earned him another elbow in the ribs.

Seeing the drawing, Superboy punched it in anger, his rage energizing him to attack Amazo again… but the android hit him before he could hit the android. Superboy was launched through the wall, and all the through a chemistry lab, where he hit the wall and fell to the ground….again.

Sounds of sympathy and frustration came from everyone as Connor was pummeled.
"Man, if it'd been anyone else they'd be dead," Wally commented.
"Like, 20 punches ago."

"That…all you got?" Superboy sassed, breathing heavy.

"No no no! Don't taunt him!"

"Access Captain Atom." Amazo said, the the bright laser-beam of light once again hit Superboy like a missile, launching him through the wall and into the gym.

"OH!"
"AH!"
"CRAP!"
"ARE YOU OKAY?!"
"Where the heck are the rest of you?! Get in there and help him!"

Sarcastic clapping came from the bleachers above Superboy; Ivo was there, with some of his monkeys.

"I don't usually attend these things in person, but this was too good to miss," the professor said.

"Oh you sicko." Robin disgustedly commented.

"Access Superman," Amazo said, and they once again began trading blows until Superboy was on the ground.

Amazo was about to deliver a decimating blow when Kid Flash yanked Superboy out of the way, adding his own sound effects with a "Yoink!"

"FINALLY!" Artemis screeched, burying her face in her hands. This was too stressful.

Kid Flash and Superboy stopped next to Robin, who sent a birdarang at Amazo, who said "Martian Manhunter," and used density shifting for it to go right through him.

"Come on, come on!" M'gann exclaimed; her and Kaldur had arrived at the end of the fight, so this was entirely new and horribly suspenseful.

"Access Red Tornado," Amazo then said, and used the whirlwinds to fling the heroes into the air, landing painfully into a wall of the floor.

"Access Captain Atom,"; Kid Flash was able to run out of the way before the energy missile hit him. As he went around the other side of the android to try a different angle of attack, Amazo said, "Access Black Canary," and used the ear-splitting screams and the energy of the sound waves to repel the speedster's advance,

Everyone who hadn't been there kept yelling advice to the Robin, Wally, and Connor, who kept going, "we're trying, we know!"

"Superman,"; Amazo repelled Superboy's attack, following up with "Martian Manhunter," as Robin hurled a birdarang at him, and the android used his arms like tentacles to knock them out of the air, and try to get Robin as well.

"Superman," the android accessed again, getting ahold of Kid Flash and crushing him.
"Martian Manhunter," Amazo said, and an arrow headed for him went through his head, landing near Robin who looked at it, knowing that an arrow had no place being there.

"WHAT were you even doing there?!"
"Just hang on, you're all still fighting!"
"Thanks again, for, you know. That."
"SSH, keep watching!"
"Well no one is being quiet! Why shush me?!"

Amazo fended off Superboy again by hurling him into the bleachers, and then said "Superman," firing up his laser vision and directing it towards Robin, who wouldn't be able to move in time…

"Move!" M'gann shrieked; the atmosphere was so tense, everyone was practically out of their seats.

Until Kid Flash threw himself bodily into Robin, his momentum carrying them into the air together; they landed hard on the ground, stunned from the impact.

"Oh thank goodness," Artemis breathed out, sagging into the cushions.

Superboy was picking himself up from the bleachers, breathing heavily and taking in the everything around him. Frowning slightly, he calmed down and said, to himself, "Access Black Canary."

Wally was slapping Robin excitedly, M'gann hugged Connor, and Kaldur seemed extremely pleased.

"Oh, yawn," Ivo spoke up, looking bored, "Normally, Amazo would study and mimic your abilities during battle, but what's the point? You're all such poor copies of the originals."

"Um, ouch."

"So everyone keeps saying," Superboy replied
"It makes me ANGRY!" he bellowed, and with a new strategy in mind, he attacked Ivo instead of the android.

"Atta boy!" "Get em!"
"I told you so Wally!"
"Whoo!"

"Want to see me channel that anger?" Superboy yelled,

"YES!" The whole team, excluding Connor, yelled at once.

"Great, he's gone ballistic again," Kid Flash said, watching Superboy
"Maybe not," Robin contradicted, kneeling right next to the speedster.

"Amazo, protect your master!" Ivo ordered, trying to keep away from Superboy's advances,"Priority alpha!"

While Amazo attacked Superboy with Captain Atom's power, Ivo's monkeys had picked him up off the ground to help him.

"Anyone want to play keepaway?" Robin asked, kicking Ivo out of the monkey's grasp.

"Kind of like you guys and Roy the other day?" Artemis asked, laughing.
Wally and Robin were not amused.

"Me, me!" Kid Flash answered, making a Beeline towards Ivo, but he was countered by Amazo again, going airborne into the bleachers.

"Martian Manhunter," Amazo said, density shifting as a birdarang went right through him, and it was right after this moment that Superboy punched Amazo…as the android went to access another power, his form became solid again, with Superboy's fist straight through the metal head.

Shouts resounded from everyone, along the lines of "Yes yes come on you got it whoo!"

Amazo's head began sparking, then blew up; the android fell motionless on it's back.

The next line was almost unable to be heard from all the loud cheering.

"Help me disassemble him, now!" Robin yelled, racing to the android.

"Dude, the guy has no head." Kid Flash said in a 'you're overreacting' tone as he held his left arm.

Artemis laughed and went, "Oh, Wally. Don't take any chances!"
"Are you okay?" M'gann asked him.
"Well we were all a little beat up. Getting thrown into lockers and bleachers and stuff."

"Don't take any chances," Aqualad's voice suddenly said, as he and M'gann made an appearance.

"Hey, that's what she said!" M'gann exclaimed, not understanding why Wally busted out laughing, Robin was struggling not to do the same, and Artemis started hitting both of them.

M'gann landed next to Superboy and asked, worried, "Superboy, are you all right?"

"I'm fine," he told her, than glanced at Robin as he added, "Feeling the aster." Robin gave him a genuine smile.

Robin grinned at Connor while the girls laughed.

"Hey! Where's Ivo?" Kid Flash pointed out still favoring his left arm.

The gym was empty of Professor Ivo and his dratted MONQIS.

"So…Wow."
"Ya."
"…I hate monkeys."

The screen showed the outside of the Cave, with the words 'Mount Justice August 1, 01:06 EDT going across the screen.

"So it took you guys how long to defeat Amazo, compared to the League?" Artemis asked, impressed.
"Well, not 4 hours…" Connor said, kind of impressed himself.

"The Amazo android is in pieces again, safely being analyzed at the two separate S.T.A.R. labs, but Ivo escaped, and since he originated the tech, he's arguably more dangerous than the android." With the team standing around him, Aqualad reported to Batman, Black Canary, Martian Manhunter, Green Arrow, and Red Tornado.

"Did they really need that many of them there?" Artemis commented.

"Capturing the professor will be a League priority," Black Canary informed them.

"But we understand your mission encountered other complications," Martian Manhunter said.

"Well, SLIGHTY," Wally said, laughing
"Just a flat tire," Robin continued.

"Complications come with the job. Your ability to handle them has impressed the League," Batman praised the team.

"Nice." Artemis agreed; compliments from Batman are not to be taken lightly.

"The whole League?" Superboy asked in a skeptical, and unconfident tone.

"Given time, yes," Batman told him, "Kryptonians, as you know, have very hard heads."

Everyone, even Connor, laughed at this.

At this last comment, Superboy smiled a bit and glanced towards Black Canary.

"Of course, there's no shame in asking for help. That's why the League exists because there are some problems even we can't handle individually," Batman said.

"Please," Robin retorted in a 'I'm not buying this' tone, "If we needed help, we'd never get the chance to ask!"

And then he pulled out the arrow that made an appearance during the battle with Amazo.

"…okay, where were you keeping that?" Artemis questioned, giving Robin a look.
"I was wondering the same thing the other day when he took out a fricking ki-mph!" Wally started saying, but was cut off when Robin smacked him in the face with a pillow.

"Look familiar?" Robin asked, and Batman took it.

"You were following us! Babysitting! You still don't trust us!" Robin exclaimed, accusing the mentors.

"Well this is awkward."

"We didn't follow you," Batman stated, handing the arrow to Green Arrow, who pulled out one of his arrows to compare the two of them; they were of completely different design.

"And….that'sss… not your arrow." Robin observed out loud, with a 'wtf' look on his face.

While Wally and Artemis were cackling about this, Robin smacked both of them and told them to shut up.

"But that means -" Robin began, looking giddy,

" Speedy!" Kid Flash cut him off,

"He has our backs," Aqualad continued, happy as well.

Robin, Wally, and Kaldur did a three way glance, in which they seemed to communicate without words.

"But if it was Speedy wouldn't he have had red arrows?" M'gann asked.

Kid Flash zoomed over to Green Arrow, grabbing the arrow from the mission out of his hands and declaring, "Souvenir!"

"One that saved everyone's butt when the Reds attacked," Artemis said.

Batman and Green Arrow gave each other a look.

"Well they seem to know better. Thanks for filling us in guys." Robin complained.

Off to the side, Superboy cleared his throat to get Black Canary's attention.

"I'm ready." he simply said.

"Good. Because I'm here." Canary told him, ready to help and support in any way she could. Superboy smiled.

Grinning, Robin said, "Dinah is the best."
"So now what?" Wally asked.
"Next video, duuhhh…?!"
"I cannot BELIEVE you are Richard Grayson!"
"I was shocked too when I found out I was Richard Grayson."
"Quit being a smartass."
"Is anyone else concerned about when the League is going to nail us?"
"Well honestly I'm more concerned about Batman finding out that you guys found out my name and then finding out that someone else who's somehow been filming us found out and that we found out about it and didn't let the League know right away."
"….what?"

Son of a bitch these chapters are hard to do…Lol, sorry

Okay, so
