Artemis was currently trying to fight the headache that always raged in her mind from having Kid Flash around.

"…and that is why Kim Kardashian's ass is. Not. Fake." He said with his arms crossed and glared at me to disagree.

I scoffed, hands on hips. "Ugh! You're such a brat! I swear to God one day I'm gonna' wring your scrawny, little—"

Recognized. Miss Martian. Superboy. Aqualad.

"Good morning!" M'gann's happy voice rang out as she walked into the training room followed by Aqualad and Superboy.

"Morning, beautiful!" KF grinned at the pretty Martian, as he waltzed his way over to her.

I rolled my eyes.

"No, he's right, Artemis," Robin chided with a grin by his place in the corner of the room. He was toying with his wrist-band thingie. "Something that beautiful can't be fake. 'Sides, she said so herself."

"Don't you idiots realize by now that celebs lie? Hmm? Of course it's fake! You'd have to be obese to get a tooshie that huge—"

"Can we begin training yet?" Black Canary said, as she calmly walked to the center of the huge facility.

Flash raised an eyebrow at me when he caught a glance of Black Canary's derriere. "Seems all-natural to me. Guess you don't have to be obese to have a nice—"

I elbowed him hard in the ribs, and he coughed.

BC eyed us, before letting us battle one another. "You may choose your sparring partner."

"I call Baywatch!" I yelled before KF could open his mouth. He gave me a startled look, and a grin twisted my lips. "Oh, you're going down, Baywatch."

He gulped, and watched as Robin gave him a smile when he paired up with M'gann. He twirled to face me.

"Dude! You made me miss my chance with M'gann!" he said angrily.

"Only makes me happier, boo." I smiled and grabbed my bow and the six of us split up into three different battlefields.

He stood in front of me, a few feet away, shaking out his hands and feet as he snapped on his goggles.

I pulled my bowstring taut and let it go with a little boing. Ready, I told myself, well, maybe not, 'cause how the hell am I supposed to hit him with arrows if he's so fast?

"And…Go!" Black Canary shouted from a seat near the portal.

I heard a roar, betting it was Superboy. I was distracted for just a half-second, but for the fastest-boy-alive, that's all the time in the world. I sucked my teeth in annoyance as my bow was lifted out of my hands, and thrown into the corner of the battlefield.

Well it was going to come down to hand-to-hand anyway, so I raised my fists and centered myself.

He stopped for a second. I threw a punch, which he dodged easily. I flipped down to the floor and swung my leg out to kick his legs out from under him. He so easily dodged that I literally (emphasis, I'm Artemis) had to rethink choosing him as my sparer.

I heard him laugh as he passed by in a blur, and it set my anger off. Kid Flash was not going to beat me. I launched into a series of punches and swings as soon as I cornered him. He ducked and dodged, blocking with his arms.

I kneed him where the sun don't shine. I gave a satisfied smile with his loud grunt. He doubled over, and I once again dropped to the floor, swiping his legs out.

I walked over to his position on the floor, just about to worry before he was a blur, and wasn't there. How aggravating.

I ran to my bow, but he was of course quicker, and swept it off the ground. He paused in his running, and turned to grin at me.

I still had my arrows, of course. I smiled back at him. I've tried it a few times, and I definitely didn't recommend it, but when in a pinch I tried everything.

I grabbed a trick bow and flung it at where he was standing, casing half our field in slick ice. He took off, and slid right into me. We slid, with my back rubbing on the cold ice. My bare midriff screamed at me to get out of the cold, it was almost painful.

We skidded to a stop, with Flash on top of me. I pushed at his shoulders, and he had to shake his dizziness before he realized what happened.

"Get off!" I growled, I felt heat rising on my cheeks despite the cold.

He quickly stood, only to topple on the slippery floor.

I stood, and slipped. I grabbed his shoulder as help and pulled myself up, only to fall again.

"Jesus…" I said, happy that I could now stand, and then I was hit by a bulldozer. "Christ!" I yelled, as Aqualad slammed into me with such a force that it snatched my breath.

I was going to kill Mr. Hottie Superboy for that. I knew it wasn't Aqualad's fault for being thrown by a Kryptonian who had horrible aim. But why the did he have to be flinged at me?

He literally brought me flying with him, and we stopped as I smashed into the wall. I heard a crack, and hoped to God that was the wall and not a bone.

"Artemis!" I heard Wally shout. Was he worried? How cute.

Oh, DO NOT GO THERE, ARTY, my brain scolded.

I fell on top of Aqualad, who just had a face-plant with the ground.

Green feminine arms clasped my forearm, and I was lifted off the Atlantean, held in the air.

"Artemis? Are you okay?" M'gann asked worriedly.

"Fine. Just a bit woozy." I said as my feet touched the ground again, and I fell into Wally's arms. Oh. My. GOD how much more embarrassing can this get?

"Hey! You okay?" He asked.

"Fine, fine, I just need to sit a little." I said, letting myself sit on the icy ground and letting my head hang to cover my blush.

"Artemis. Are you okay?" Black Canary asked as she ran over, heels clicking noisily. How the hell can you sneak around in those? I wondered.

"Yes, jeez."

"What happened?" she asked with a cocked hip.

"I am sorry, Artemis. That was my fault." Superboy said with a sad look.

"Damn skippy." I agreed, too annoyed to flirt.

"I threw Aqualad, but I didn't watch where I aimed, and I forgot to throw lightly." He said with a hang of his head. M'gann placed a hand on his arm.

"Sorry, Artemis." Aqualad said with an air of despair.

"Dude. It's fine. Get over it," I said and stood quickly. I teetered, and threw my hands out to catch anything to help me stand, which happened to be Baywatch's arm and Robin's head. "Sorry." I told them.

A loud beep rang through the room, giving me a big headache. Batman appeared on screen and in that monotone voice of his said, "Young Justice, clean up and report for a new mission in ten minutes. Batman out."

The screen went black.

"Alright, Kid Flash, take Artemis to the medical room to get examined, and meet up at the mission room to be briefed." Black Canary commanded.

Robin snickered as I complained. "What! I don't need to go get an examination! And I don't need help! Especially not from him." I thumbed at Kid Flash.

"Hey, I don't have to help you out you know!" Baywatch slung my arm over his shoulder. Black Canary smiled and walked out with the loud ring of identification from the portal.

"Then get off, Flashboy. I don't need you." I glared.

He dropped my arm, "Fine! Whenever someone tries to help you out you always push them away! Why don't you give me a reason to trust you, since you won't let anyone close enough to even know you! Maybe I was right not to trust you from the beginning!" He yelled.

My mouth gaped at his outburst, but I quickly shut it and snatched my bow. "Whatever, Baywatch. I'm out." I finished lamely and walked into the portal.

Portal transportation had always been strange to me, like little pinpricks all over my skin. It was weird, one moment you're in one place and in the next your walking into a room at the other side of the mountain.

But with a crazy headache and feeling dizzy, I practically fell out of the portal. No 'practically', I did fall out of the portal. I landed on the floor on my hands and knees. I almost upchucked right there.

Nah-uh,, ArtyPants. You are not showing weakness in front of the team. Especially not FlashBoy.

I picked myself up and walked down a random corridor quickly before I heard the portal's loud identification.

"Where'd she go?" I heard Robin ask.

"Who knows? Who cares?" Wallman growled.

God, what a prick. I ran silently to the Ladies room away from them, and hoped that Superboy's hearing couldn't trace my footsteps.

When I felt they were at a safe distance and I felt I couldn't hold it anymore, I kneeled at a toilet and proceeded to throw up my brains.

When I was done, I flushed and washed my face. I saw mouthwash in the bathroom's cupboard, and swished around till my tongue burnt.

I fixed my hair, and left for the briefing. I hoped I wasn't late, Batman didn't appreciate tardiness.

I made it in time, with everyone lazily lined up with Batman waiting for me in front.

Oh, darn. I stood next to Aqualad, who looked down at me quizzically.

"This is an undercover mission. We have deciphered a code the League of Shadows uses and have learned that Scourge will be transporting a computer chip of the Shadows' next hit list of scientists, and will be giving it to Cheshire."

"Nice, undercover!" Kidboy high-fived Robin.

The thought of the Shadows set my blood boiling.

"The transporting of the chip will take place at a grand ball in Monte Carlo, Monaco. We will need a girl and boy to go. Robin, you will be needed to decipher and hack into all codes and security. You're also too young to be able to get into the ball without overly questioning."

I saw Robin's mischievous smile drop off his face when he heard he couldn't go undercover. I snickered.

"Superboy, you are not sociable enough and have not had enough human interaction, therefore you will be quickly noticed. Aqualad, you must stay behind and help with communications, being as Miss Martian will not be able to provide telepathy along with the fact you have gills and webbed hands."

"That leaves me," Wally snickered, "Wait what? How come M'gann can't go?"

M'gann smiled. "I have a Martian celebration that is mandatory to attend. It's called Uj-al-G'lando."

"Aww, man!" Wally pouted.

"Wait, that means I have to be the girl to go?" I paused to process this. "With him? Ick! Gross."

"Yeah, how do you think I feel?" Flash said with disgust. "Dude. We need more girls on this team. I don't even know if it counts." He pointed at me.

"Excuse me? First of all, no offense to you, M'gann, but you're going to say the Martian seems more like a girl than me?" I got up in his face.

"Well, M'gann is beautiful and kind and polite, but you are definitely not any of those things, which makes you unnoticeable in my opinion!" He yelled, inches from me.

I clenched my fists to keep from punching him. "You immature, idiotic—"

"Ehem." Batman's commanding throat clear interrupted me. I quieted down.

"Yes, you two are going to have to work together. This is undercover, so you will be in disguise. Disguise means you will not be at each other's throats, and instead be a couple. No reason to complain if you are just disguising yourselves." He said with an audible glare.

Aqualad smiled, probably just dreaming of a team with full teamwork, seeing this as a step into fixing the weak link in the team. He nodded at me.

I simply nodded and we were dismissed. As soon as we were dismissed: "Couple? Is he crazy? That's disgusting!"

"Dang it, M'gann! Why'd you have to leave me with the troll? Now I'm stuck with her as a couple. EWW!" Kid Flash whined.

M'gann gave an apologetic smile, and Superboy stared with that angsty look. Aqualad seemed reassured.

Robin snickered angrily, "Oh, stop being so immature you two! Man, it's an undercover mission, which is so cool!"

"Yeah, but she ruins it!" "But who wants to go with him?" We said simultaneously. "Ugh!" We both growled at each other and KF ran in the other direction, leaving a gust of wind and dust.
