***** READ A/N AT THE BOTTOM IF I AM USING ONE OF YOUR OCs *****

Winging it FTW! XD

Lol not really winging it, more like not knowing what to do so just going with it…

SuperninjaX- Thanks for the reminder :D

madly9- Thanks for the help! XD

GhostDog401- I don't want to make her look weak, and I love her character… she's actually going to be one of the easiest ones to write, in my opinion considering I'm into the experimenting with animal DNA and such… *cough*maximumride*cough* :P

Blue Eyes Arch Angel- Why, thank you :)

LadyoftheMasquerades- Thanks for the info… in my opinion this is how I did her in the chapter, I just hope I did her right…

I don't own Young Justice or the OCs in this chapter!

Claudia smirked, despite the current situation.

At the moment her whole team was huddled in the living room; some were talking strategy, some were deep in thought but most were just standing there, they must have been waiting for her reaction and this wasn't what they'd expected.

She was actually enjoying this new development, it wasn't a big deal in her eyes at all. So what if a couple of superhuman teens had shown up on their "trainer's" radar? She wasn't going to stress out over it or anything.

Vampires, that was what she was really worried about.

And as far as she knew no sane vampire would team up with the metas… then again she knew there were some crazy blood suckers out there.

No matter, her team could take them. They weren't inexperienced, they just needed to work together some more.

As soon as they got used to each-other they'd be able to keep the others in their place, make sure they weren't bothered by those "teams" that they'd never met.

She and her team were prepared for this one hundred percent… right?

Animal wasn't paying attention to the others, she was just lost in thought.

There was another group, more like two other groups.

If they captured her, would they take her back?

She didn't want to go back, they'd ruined her life.

If it was up to her she'd go back to her old life, her family…

But that wasn't possible, was it?

She didn't remember much of her past, she didn't even know her own parents or where she lived. It wasn't fair, many of the people around her just left.

They had a choice, didn't they? She didn't, she didn't have a choice to stay with her parents or leave; she was just taken.

Did she even have parents? Were they alive? What about more than parents, more people in a family? Brothers or sisters?

She wanted a chance to meet them, wanted a chance to know… so far she'd had no such luck in that department, but hopefully that could change.

Bliss just stared at Claudia, a smirk of her own covering her face.

She wasn't really worried about the other "teams" and apparently, neither was Claud.

Sure, maybe one or two could put up a challenge for her but… that was the fun in it, right?

She wasn't a coldblooded murderer, or a League member… she was just Bliss.

That made sense, right?

Becoming what her… gah, mother wanted… this wasn't it… right?

Did she even want to become what that woman wanted?

It had its benefits, of course. The extensive knowledge of things useful to her out in the streets, the endless training to prepare her for something better… it had paid off.

She was glad what happened eventually did happened and that woman was no longer "watching over her." But at the same time… she'd learned some pretty cool stuff.

And she would never have to face off against Artemis, the girl who saved her life.

Rage had his arms crossed, just looking ahead and ignoring everyone else… especially Claudia.

The girl sometimes got on his nerves, she should have interrogated Ira further like a good leader would have done. She should have asked what needed to be asked.

He couldn't believe a girl like her could be leader, couldn't even believe that he had to listen to her instructions like she owned him.

He was Colt Terror, brother to the "famous" Terror Twins.

But where were they now? Yeah, stuck in Belle Rev as far as he knew.

He didn't even want to go down that train of thought, why was he even with these people?

Oh yeah, because he'd been promised some help. They'd promised to help him track his siblings, and now that they were taken care of… he'd just stayed for some unknown reason.

Maybe he should have left, maybe he should have asked Red Arrow to help find some information on "Ira" and who she really was. He might not have been the sharpest or the brightest but he was smart enough to know she wasn't right.

The two girls stood off to the side, talking.

"Do you think they might… come after us?" Olympia asked in a hushed tone.

"Let them come, we can take them." Andy replied, somewhat confident in their abilities.

Olympia nodded in agreement, smiling slightly. "Of course, we're all capable of taking care of ourselves. After all, it's only fifteen of them…" She gulped.

Andy snorted. "Right… because both groups will totally settle their differences to come after us."

"But with our luck…" Olympia trailed off. "No need to worry though, right?"

Andy nodded. "Right, nothing to worry about."

Dren wasn't paying much attention to the other's, she didn't care about how they reacted… especially Claudia.

She was more focused on other things, like using her tech to find some dirt on the other teams and their members.

So far she knew next to nothing, except for their aliases. That was no help to her at all.

When she joined this team she didn't think she'd have to do much of anything to keep herself safe… this was meant to just be a place where she didn't have to hide her gifts and who she was.

Apparently, this was not the case anymore.

If she'd actually have to fight someone, if she had to hurt them…

Did they even have families? And why were they in these other teams? Did they even know about her team?

Surely they did, they were probably briefed about the whole thing like she was.

But she didn't get it, they were supposed to stay away from all the drama going on in the villain and hero lives… why did Ira want them getting involved?

"What else can you get?" Whisper asked, sitting right beside her.

"So far… nothing." Dren replied.

"But we know who they are… that's something." Whisper told herself.

"Yeah, I guess you can say that." Dren responded, pulling up some information on the laptop's screen. "I'll run a whole background search, it should be done by tomorrow morning."

"Here's to hoping." Whisper muttered, grabbing a stack of papers from the printer, a sleek silver laptop and heading out of the room, barely bothering to let the others know. "I'm going to go see what else I can find."

No one told her anything else as she stepped away. "We should get some rest." Claudia announced, her smirk still evident. "No need to worry about this now."

Soon they were all heading off to bed or home or wherever they usually go.

Can you tell I got lazier and lazier the more I wrote? ;P I wrote this last night and then went off to bed scared for my life because I had just watched The Woman in Black… *shudders*

I seriously want to get this story moving and reveal my diabolical plans and lead all your OCs into their doom… did I say that? I meant lead your OCs into a wonderful adventure! Yeah, that's what I meant…

I've got some questions for you OC people. (YES! ALL OF THE OCS IN THIS STORY! EVEN YJ ONES!)

# ONE: If your OC was about to be killed how'd he/she react? Would you be okay if I were to hypothetically speaking "kill" them? (I only ask because my mind tends to do horrible things to my plots…)

# TWO: If they were in tremendous danger, would they take on any allies or partners? Would they abandon the team?

# THREE: How do they react to betrayal? Do they forgive and forget, forgive but never forget or never forgive and never forget?

# FOUR: How good are they at lying? Can they talk themselves out of a situation or drown in their own lies?

# FIVE: If they had the chance to get out of somewhere safe and unharmed but the price was killing someone, what would they do; kill or let them live at your expense? What if this certain person you had to kill made a mistake that they wanted to fix but it had greatly affected your safety beforehand?

That's it… I think, I might have more questions when the time comes. Just remember, if you don't answer your character might be very OOC later on…

FOR ANYONE THAT DOESN'T READ THE A/Ns, REVIEW ME YOUR ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS ABOVE ABOUT YOUR OCs PLEASE!

I cannot make that any clearer…
