Well, here it is, the last chapter of the story. I've never been sad to see one of my stories come to an end, but this one really hits home.

Chapter 24

There was a distortion at the school, luckily no one was there to see it, and all of a sudden the girls appeared. It took a couple of minutes for them to stand up, as the portal threw off their balance. They then gathered their things and started walking home.

"I can't believe it, we're back, but I already miss Happy Harbor." Kristi said with some sadness in her voice.

"I know, Kristi, but we really needed to get back, and thanks to Dr. Fate, our parents won't know we were gone for six days. I know last year was fun helping save our dimension, but getting to see Gotham and Happy Harbor, not to mention helping take down two of Batman's rouges and Count Vertigo." Reina said, reassuring Kristi that their adventure touched both their lives and the lives of those they helped in the DC Universe.

"Reina's right, we had a great time, and we'll always remember it." CC said, a smile on her face.

They started to near Green St. and so all three of them headed to CC's house so the new friend could introduce Reina and Kristi to her parents. They arrived and CC's parents were happy that she made friends on her first day in a new school. After some time at CC's, they headed down a shortcut the two natives knew and went to Reina's house.

Mt. Justice was pretty quiet now since the girls headed home. The team was not mopy, but they couldn't forget their new friends.

"I can't believe Reina could be so evil when she tortured me." Wally said, sitting down playing a video game.

"Oh come on, you know you deserved it." Artemis said, trying to hide a laugh.

"Yea, Wally; that's just one thing you have to work on, you can't flirt with every girl you meet." Dick said, having gotten out of his Robin costume. He had to admit to himself, he was happy that the team knew who he was.

"Dick, would you like to help me get dinner started?" M'gann asked, knowing that doing something would make him feel better.

"Sure thing, M'gann." Dick said as he walked into the kitchen.

"CC sure could lead, huh." Conner asked as he and Kaldur were walking into the main area of the mountain.

"I believe that if she, Reina and Kristi were on their own team, CC would make an excellent leader." Kaldur answered.

"Think we'll ever need their help?" Artemis asked, curiously.

"Well, if we do, like they said, we know where to find them." Dick said with a laugh in his voice as he was stirring a pot of chili while M'gann was making some fresh sweet tea.

The three teens had arrived at Reina's house, and Kathy was very happy to meet CC. After that, they headed to the nearby woods, where Reina and Kristi had an old tree house they played in, and so they went and placed their costumes inside. They then started into a training session, just like Reina and Kristi always did. As they fought, they talked about all the adventures they had over the last six days.

Halloween Night, Two Month's Later

There was a big party happening in the school's gym, and everything was allowed. CC had to receive special permission to have a special prop with her for her costume.

Once they arrived, the party was in full swing, and when the trio walked in, and everyone's attention turned to them. One group of girls from Reina's classes came up to them.

"Wow, who are you guys suppose to be?" One girl asked.

"Well, we all write our own fan fiction, and each came up with a character. I'm Cardinal, Robin the boy wonder's twin sister. Kristi here is Scarlet, Robin's adopted sister, and CC is Indigo, she knew Dick since they were born, you know same day of birth and all." Reina explained.

"You guys really need to find another hobby, but these are great costumes." A second girl said, putting her hands on her hips.

"We worked on these for two months, wanted to make sure the details were just right." CC said as she looked at the girl.

"Well, again they are great costumes; hope you have fun at the party." The third girl in the group said, and the group of girls then walked off.

"If only they knew." CC said, then let out a small laugh.

"It's a good thing they didn't touch the tunics, or they probably would have noticed they weren't just fabric, but kevlar too." Kristi said, also letting out a little laugh.

"Well, let's have fun. CC, is your sword secure?" Reina stated, then asked.

"Yes, I used black electrical tape, and even tested it several times." CC said, and with that, the trio headed over to the refreshments.

"This will be a fun night." Reina said, and with that, they really got into the party.
