Becca stopped at the Martian girl's door. She had been heading to her own room when a noise had stopped her. It sounded like crying; not a good sign. She tapped on the door softly.
“Megan?”
“I'm okay Becca.”
“No 你 aren't. Let me in. Please.”
“I'm okay.”
“Megan, either 你 let me in 或者 I'll let myself in.”
There was a moment of silence before the bolt on Megan's door moved. A 秒 later, Megan's head peered through a crack.
“Are 你 alone?”
“Yes.”
Becca stepped inside when Megan opened the door wide. She waited while Megan relocked her door. Megan took the 床, 床上 and Becca sat in the 台, 办公桌 chair backwards.
“What's wrong?”
“You know that new girl Cassie?”
Becca nodded, tensing up at the name.
“Well, she is...”
“Moving in on Connor even though she knows 你 and he are together?” Becca offered.
“Yeah. I don't know what to do. I 爱情 Connor but I'm afraid I might loose him.”
“Megan, I want 你 to listen carefully. No matter what happens, 你 have to keep holding on. I know things will be difficult and you'll want to give up. But don't. Connor is a clone yes. But he also has feelings. I know for a fact that, as long as 你 keep fighting, he will keep 你 close. And don't 你 push him away because of Cassie. If 你 really want this to work, stay strong.”
“But you've never had to deal with this situation. How would 你 know?”
“I've had quite a few battles between other girls and myself. All because of Robin. So don't judge me. 你 have no idea what the journey will be like. But that doesn't mean 你 stop before you've even began. It will spoil you're adventure.”
“But what if nothing happens and Connor goes with Cassie?”
“Then 你 doubted yourself and Connor.”
Cassie looked up and smiled.
“Hey Shade. What's going on?”
“I have a message. For you.”
“Oh? Who's it from? Connor?”
“Sorry to damper your spirit but no.”
“You don't seem very sorry. In fact, 你 don't even seem to like me.”
“I don't.”
“You know nothing about me.”
“On the contrary, I know everything about 你 Cassie. And this is my message. If 你 ever get between Megan and Connor, you'll be hurt.”
“By who? 你 can't do anything to me and the others all 爱情 me. So what will 你 do without powers Shade?”
“Don't underestimate me, Cassandra! I'm 更多 than 你 know.”
“Really? Then how about a little spar? For fun?”
“Fine. Let's-”
Before she could finish, Becca found herself flung across the room and slammed against a wall. She fell to her hands and knees, blood dripping from her mouth and forehead.
“See? 你 can't touch me.”
“Don't count on it!”
Becca ran at her “opponent” and used every trick she knew. All of her moves, all her weapons, everything. And she was winning. Cassie pulled the lasso off her hip and wrapped it around Becca, sending an electric jolt down the girl's spine. Becca screamed and fell back down. Her arms were bound but her feet weren't. She stood shakily and pulled the weapon out of the surprised Wonder Girl's hands. She undid herself, now holding the lasso.
“I told you; don't underestimate me.”
With a quick turn, Becca had Cassie wrapped in her own lasso. A kick to the back of her knees sent Cassie falling to the ground.
“That's proof that you'll be hurt 由 me if ever 你 get between Megan and Connor. So back off!”
Becca turned to walk away when Cassie screamed out in pain. Becca looked back, twirling her escrim sticks, as the others entered.
“What's wrong?” Artemis asked.
“I was just here, listening to my 音乐 when Becca attacked me!”
The other girl stood in stunned silence. No way was Becca going to let that happen!
“Liar! You're not the only one with bruises!” Becca yelled.
“So what happened?” Artemis repeated.
“We were sparring,” Becca answered.
“And 你 threatened me!”
“I did not! I warned you! And my warning stays!”
“Now you're lieing! Telling someone that you'll hurt them if they don't do something is a threat!”
“I'm surprised how smart 你 are Cassie. I thought 你 were just a stereo-typical blonde!”
The final dagger thrown, Becca stormed out of the room. She would not stand for this. And she wasn't about to let Cassie get away with it either. This meant war!
“Megan?”
“I'm okay Becca.”
“No 你 aren't. Let me in. Please.”
“I'm okay.”
“Megan, either 你 let me in 或者 I'll let myself in.”
There was a moment of silence before the bolt on Megan's door moved. A 秒 later, Megan's head peered through a crack.

The Clash-
SNEAK PEEK
"A biological attack has affected the greater part of New York City. A green fog rose from the streets this morning in downtown New York. Despite interventions of the Justice League & Young Justice, New York has been stranded from all help. Monsters are being formed from what we are told is 'Gamma Radiation'. But the main 问题 everyone is asking is not "How will we save those who have been affected" Rather the 问题 is: Where is New York's protector? Where is the Spiderman? And did he truly end the masked vigilante Red Revenge, now known as Samuel Grant?"
Should I publish?

Epilogue-
2 weeks later...
Artemis landed on the rooftop, bow drawn.
"Relax, it's me." Revenge said, emerging from the shadows.
Artemis cocked her head, but didn't let go of her bow 或者 arrow. "What do 你 want Revenge?"
"I've changed my mind." Revenge said. "I'll 加入 the Team on one condition."
"What condition?" Artemis asked.
"You listen to what I have to say."
------------------------------------------------------
"Assassin."
"Master."
Cheshire bowed before Ra's Al Ghul.
"Your mission was a success?"
"Yes master." Cheshire handed her leader a disc which he inserted into a computer. "Holly's true loyalties were proven."
The screen behind Ra's Al Ghul lit up revealing a familiar face.
"And another of the "heroe's" identities belongs to...the Light."
