AN: So in the spirit of summer, I give you the first part of a three part (maybe four?) genderbend! It's not my best work...the first parts was written towards the beginning of the school year (yeah...I really don't pay much attention in class...whoops!) but- hey!- I don't think it really matters...and yes...Hot Chelle Ray's song "Tonight, Tonight" inspired this fic...so n'joy!

...Nope! Still don't own...but if I did!-well...we won't go into that! ^.^

AU: Gender-bent

Part I: The RedBull Effect

Apollo slugged through the mountain, glad that for once, there was silence. It was only when he arrived in the Living Room/ Kitchen area that he groaned. M'son was in the kitchen (as per usual.), Connie was sitting in front of a static screen (what else was new?), Robyn was hacking away at something (seriously did she ever do anything else?), and Kallie was reading something classic (at least she had good taste.), and thankfully Winny was nowhere to be seen. Apollo straightened himself up and entered the room. Avoiding the martian's inquisitive gaze, he walked over to the couch and, with a sigh, plopped down next to Connie. He propped his feet up on the coffee table, slouched down, and closed his eyes, hoping everyone would ignore him.

"What's up with you, Apollo?" came Robyn's high pitched voice.

He peeked at the preteen, making sure her shaded attention was still on her hack job. It was. "I'm sure you already know." Apollo grumbled, closing his eyes again, wishing that she would leave him alone.

"Of course I do, but no one else does." Robyn answered.

"And I'd like to keep it that way." he growled, shifting angrily.

Connie sulked next to him, crossing her arms across the 'S' shield on her chest, silently willing both of them to shut up. Apollo didn't blame her; he wanted the little brat to shut up too.

Robyn shrugged, "Your better off without her anyway, she was a skank." she mumbled.

"What's a skank?" M'son asked, emerging from the kitchen.

"In other words-." Apollo started.

"NO!" Robyn shouted. "Do not poison the children's mind, Apollo!" she scolded.

Connie huffed, showing her dislike of being called a child but knowing that technically she was still only a few months old. M'son just stood there, un-offended.

Apollo grumbled obscurities as he got up to walk away, glaring at Robyn all the while. Furious at the fact that she was making him open up to the team. He didn't want to get any closer to these people than he had to.

"So, what happened, Apollo?" M'son asked.

Apollo continued glaring at the Girl Wonder as he reluctantly gave his answer. "My girlfriend cheated on me, so I dumped her." he said, "Happy?" he asked, pointedly to Robyn.

"Ecstatic." she smirked.

He grumbled as he began his escape to the depths of the cave, and he would have gotten away, had they not heard: "Recognized: Kid Flash-", which was promptly cut off by a blood-curdling scream.

Connie yelped, clutched her sensitive ears in pain as the rest of the team scrambled to find Winny. They all stumbled into the room to see Winny vibrating in place, a smeared toothy grin on her face. "Hey guys! Did you know that there's an echo?" she said, which really came out "Eeeeeyyyy ggguuuyyyyssss! Dddiiiddd yyyoouu kkknowwww thhhhaaaatt thhheeereeesss aaann eeeechhhoooo?" since she was talking while vibrating.

"Uh-oh." Robyn said.

"What?" Mason asked, concerned.

Connie had joined them and was looking at Winny like she was an extraterrestrial.

"Winny? What did you do?" Robyn asked cautiously.

Winny zipped around the room, causing the whole room to be blurred with the red of her hair, the dark green of her jacket, the white of her shirt underneath, and the blue of her pants. She stopped behind them and yelled "I drank Red Bull!" and then laughed hysterically. The team, save Connie, Robyn, and Apollo, jumped at the sound of her voice, and before they could even turn around to see her, she was off, laughing and running through the rest of the mountain.

Apollo glanced at where she had stood still for a whole nanosecond ago, then looked to where she ran off to. He sighed. "Well, good luck." He grumbled, and went to go back to reclaim his seat on the couch.

"What?" Kallie asked him.

"Good luck getting her to calm down." Apollo answered, not turning around.

"We don't need to calm her down. She'll crash in about two minutes." Robyn informed them, furiously hacking into the mountain security cameras.

"Still not my problem." Apollo mumbled, returning to his previous position on the couch.

The rest of them soon took up their previous posts, waiting for Winny's doomsday clock to count down to zero.

"What's a cookin' good-lookin'?" they all heard Winny ask Mason before she rushed off with a gust of wind.

Apollo heard her keep coming in and out of the area, and after about two laps he ignored her wind making tendencies. It wasn't until he felt a very hard thump on the side of his skull that he acknowledged her again. "OW!" he yelled, rubbing his head angrily. He looked at Connie, who just shrugged. Then he heard Winny giggle from somewhere inside the mountain. He growled and mumbled a few curses, returning to his relaxed position.

Another giggle, another thump, another gust of wind. Another growl, another curse, another position shift. The cycle just kept repeating.

"Thirty seconds." Robyn announced.

Everybody but Apollo got up to prepare to catch the speedster that was about to drop dead. Not as literally as Apollo was wishing right then, but close enough.

Another giggle coming their way, but Apollo had already cracked. A hand was captured, the force of speed was stopped, and a breath was caught.

"Twenty seconds." Robyn said rushed.

"What are you-?" her angry voice started.

Apollo held onto her tightly as he jumped over the back of the couch, grabbing hold of her other hand. Now all that was left was to wait.

"What are you all-?" she started again. She gave an angry shove before she started to struggle, but Apollo kept her in an iron grip that rivaled Connie's.

She stopped struggling, her breathing started to slow down and become almost labored. Her eyes rolled back into her head as she started to fall limp. Apollo caught her falling body before it collapsed onto the floor.

Apollo lifted her up and glared at all of them but didn't speak; he only grumbled some choice words and took the sleeping Winifred to her room.

Robyn smirked, watching them leave, now was the chance to make them realize that they were perfect for each other. "Kallie, permission to initiate the mission impossible?" Robyn asked their leader.

Her silver-green eyes glinted with excitement, something that was rare and usually unseen. "Permission granted."
