I learned something new! (: And, Wingd Knight, your reviews make me laugh so hard.

Your review just- I have no words for how sweet it was. Thank you so much and I can't wait to read your story! Next on the agenda.. my name is Dawn, and I am an internet geek. Now that's out there.

Artemis! You can hear me?
Of course I can Kid Idiot! Artemis rolled her eyes at Wally, he actually thought she was in danger. In some way it was kind of cute, annoying, but cute.
WELL WHERE ARE YOU? His voice yelled into her mind, and she winced.
You have a tracker! She argued back, already getting mad at him.
I can't believe you told them not to tell me, Wally couldn't help but bring it up.
Really? You're going to talk to me about it NOW? She snapped at the red head.
Well when's a good time? He asked politely, but was thick with sarcasm.
When I'm not in a coral cage? Artemis was sarcastic right back.
You wouldn't be in that situation if we all thought of a plan together! Wally replied, his anger rising
Are you kidding me! We couldn't-
Enough you two! Aqualad stepped in aggravated. We have a job to do, you can discuss this after we have served justice.
Fine. Both teens replied in union.
Coming across your coordinateness now…whoa! That's definitely whelming.. The boy wonder looked up in surprise. There was an entrance to a giant underwater cave, but blocked by..humans with.. sea animal parts! What? (Just go with it, I am going to skip the whole fighting scene because if I wrote it it'd be lame and we all just want see spitfire right? xD)
That's just not right Wally wrinkled his nose up in disgust as they hid behind some seaweed.
Call in the team? Wally asked the leader, glancing at him, his green eyes wide. Aqualad nodded, and sent the signal to Miss. M.
Ready? We can't.. hurt them badly, there still human, we'll have to figure out how to turn them back afterwards.. Robin shut off his portable computer, and pulled out his own version of bat-a-rangs.
Go.
~~~~~BREAKKK! Haha.. so.. use your imagination and figure out the fight scene.. ~~~~~~
"You sacrificed one of your teammates, failed to keep us updated, and let ocean master get away. " The team stood around the conference call with Batman. " On the other hand you retrieved every single captive, reversed the process of animal and human DNA combination, and captured Ocean Masters head assistant... Good job." Silently, Wally and Robin fist bumped in glee and everyone slowly started to smile at the Dark Knights compliment. "I suspect I shall see you soon." With the final words said, Batman logged off and making sure no one was around, he smiled, just a little.
"Finally!" Wally sighed, and plopped down on the couch. " How about we stay a bit longer?"
"Wally!" everyone yelled at him. It had been a great week and half but everyone was ready to get back to the mountain.
"What?" he asked innocently, instead of answering everyone just groaned and left the room. Wally leaned his head back and closed his eyes. The memories of the day before flooded into his mind. Finding a very pissed off Artemis in a cage, having to figure out a reverse chemical for the captives, then dealing with his thoughts and feelings for Artemis. He almost got to kiss her, and now he felt as if he was moving too fast. He didn't want to scare her off, definitely didn't want to do that. Suddenly, the static from the radio cleared, a song that Wally hadn't heard in forever, played.
"She's cold and she's cruel
But she knows what she's doin'
She pushed me in the pool
At our last school reunion
She laughs at my dreams
But I dream about her laughter
Strange as it seems
She's the one I'm after
'cause she's bittersweet She can't keep a secret
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else
She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for
For more than an hour
She runs on 100 proof attitude power
And the more she ignores me
The more I adore her
What can I do?
I'd do anything for her
'cause she's bittersweet And when she sees it's me She's cold and she's cruel
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else
She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for
On her caller ID
She won't pick up the phone
She'd rather be alone
But I can't give up just yet
Cause every word she's ever said
Is still ringing' in my head
Still ringing' in my head
But she knows what she's doin'
Knows just what to say
So my whole day is ruined."
"Okay." Wally stood up, running his fingers through his ginger hair. " That's weird." Pacing back and forth, Wally peeked out the door looking across the hall to the girls room. "Now or never Walman."
Taking two strides he knocked on the girls door, praying it was Artemis who answered.
"Yes?" His lucky day! There stood Artemis, dressed in her civvies, same as him, looking curiously at him.
"Hey Babe, come down to the beach with me one last time?" He winked at her. Artemis, seeing no way out of this, quietly shut the door behind her and stood with her arms crossed.
"Okay, I'll bite."
The two of them took the elevator down to the lobby, and walked off towards the beach. The sun cast an orange haze above the horizon, lighting up the sky as if lit by fire, yet the haze was so crisp and clear.
The sun, like a large, grandeur orange fireball in the distance was partially cloaked by the hanging clouds, which were all splashed with the random colors of hot pinks, reds and even hints of purples and blues. The sun was so large that he felt he could almost touch it. It seemed to look at him with a dull glare, knowing that it's beauty and the planet's dependence on it for survival made up for it.
The sun which had it's time to shine for the time it was given, seemed to whisper "Farewell" to the world as it sunk lower and lower in a lazy manner; almost as if it never wanted to leave. But the beauty of the sky couldn't compare to the beauty of the girl beside him.
"So, what did you want to talk about?" Artemis asked softly as they sat near the water's edge, her hands lightly picking up sand, then letting it slip in between her fingers.
"Who said I wanted to talk?" he replied, half joking. Wally's heart seemed to beat faster when he was around Artemis, and he was afraid that she could sense it.
"You wouldn't have asked me down here if you didn't." she pointed out, still playing with the sand, not exactly looking the speedster in the eyes. She knew if she did, she'd get tangled up in his seaweed colored eyes. Wally sighed, leaning back, his tan ( but slightly burned) arms flexing as he did so, catching Artemis's eye. Blushing wildly she turned back to and stared blankly at the lapping waves that were turning to a dark blue.
"Artemis, this is kind of hard to say- maybe I should sing it.." Wally sighed, rubbing his jaw thoughtfully
"Don't!" she said quickly, too quickly, " I mean- better just to tell me straight right?"
"As Robin would say.." Wally started grinning, " I'm not so smooth with the words.."
And his mouth met hers. Their lips worked together in harmony as Wally's hand locked around her waist slowly, pulling her on top of him as they laid in the sand. Wally nibbled on her bottom lip, releasing a pleasurable sigh from Artemis. Her hands tangled into his fiery hair as their tongues battled it out in the passionate kiss.
"Artemis." Wally mumbled against her soft pink lips.
"Shut up Baywatch." She argued and continued to peck him on his lips. She smiled against them, he tasted like cinnamon and sea salt, for her, the perfection combination.
"But Artemis." Wally tried to speak but Artemis groaned
"Just give me what I want." She was frustrated that he was trying to talk, but she continued to lay in his arms, softly kissing. Wally inhaled deeply. Artemis smelled like cherries and strangely like coconut tanning oil, which she claimed just three days ago she didn't use. He smiled. After several moments, both teens leaned back, satisfied for know. Feeling a bit flushed, Artemis smiled slightly at Wally,
"So what did you want to talk about?"
BAM! THE END!
