Being the daughter of a superhero you would've thought that Zatanna's life would be filled with excitement and adventures. It was sometimes but most of the time she spent it at home, learning new spells or moves. It wasn't completely necessary that she learn hand-to-hand combat since her fighting wasn't psychical but she wanted to.

Though she liked the hours she spent practicing it was for nothing if she wasn't allowed into combat. Her friends helped the Justice League on a regular basis and she was stuck because her father refused to let her join her friends' team. She knew perfectly well that her father was trying to protect her and she was grateful to him for that but she could fight now and her friends would have her back.

Now she sat on her bed too bored for her liking. She sighed and decided to head over to the Cave. At least her father let her do this. She knew the team had a mission but would be back by this morning. She always had fun with them; maybe she could hang out with Artemis and Megan or play video games with the guys. Anything to help her boredom fade away.

The moment she walked in she knew something was wrong. The place was too quiet and after checking she confirmed it was empty too. 'Maybe they went out?' she thought but she knew better than that. Before they left for their mission and she headed home, Wally had spilled a glass of coke over the kitchen counter. Surely someone would've cleaned it up after they returned. Wolf acted as if he hadn't seen anyone since they left and he looked as if he wanted to go out. Zatanna patted his head and he followed her eagerly to the entrance. She let him out, knowing he would return when he was ready and got her cellphone out to contact her father.

Zatara was out on a mission with Batman and Red Tornado so apparently he wasn't going to answer his phone any time soon. The amateur magician gave up trying to contact her father and sat on the cave's living room. This made no sense. She decided she could ask black canary when her throat started clenching inhibiting the path of air. A mystical chanting echoed in the silence as she gasped for air. She didn't realize it was her voice that was pronouncing the spell, her delicate fingers crossed in a pattern and just like that she vanished.

She was falling but only for a bit. Then she hit a hard, cold surface. "What was that?" came a voice to her right. Was it Artemis? No, it couldn't be. But still..."Artemis?" Zatanna called out.

"Zatanna?" said another voice who she was sure belonged to Wally. She couldn't see a thing, it was dark and cold. She stood up still cautious about her surroundings. "What's going on?" she asked.

"How did you get here?" asked Kaldur. Now Zatanna realized that the whole team was there. She said a spell in a low voice and her hands gave off a bright light. It was enough to for them to see one another now and a bit of the room too. She took in the faces of her friends all confused as to how she had ended up here and honestly she was confused too. Then she noticed that she was wrong, the whole team was there along with Roy but Robin was nowhere to be seen.

She started pacing nervously, her confusion clearly seen in her visage. Too many questions crossed her head as she tried to place how she had gotten there. Most importantly "W-where is Robin?" The magician questioned finally regaining her voice. "We have no knowledge about him either." Kaldur informed seemingly frustrated with their current state. " And we have no idea where we are... But wait how did you get here?" Interrupted Wally. "I-I don't know it just happened, the spell I mean, I've had these times where I cast spells without consent but I don't know I can't transport to other places yet.."

"So what happened?" inquired Artemis. "I don't know" Zatanna concluded. "I know" came a low whisper inside the ship. Everyone was alert; Cheshire had entered the ship too.

Robin was fighting to stay awake. Last thing he remembered was going off with the others and just as he turned around to examine something everything went black. Then he woke up though he still couldn't see a thing. He in a chair, not tied up but not able to move. He could just make out some shadows and that was it, nothing more. It scared him but he maintained his calm demeanor. He wanted to call out to his friends but his tongue felt heavy and his eyes were closing again. The next time he woke up the room was light up. It took some time for Robin to adjust to the new brightness; it felt as if a million light bulbs were turned on in the room when in reality there were only two. He could move now but he was tied up this time. He bowed his head and kept his eyes on the floor to block out some of the light. Then the hair on the back of his neck stood up as he saw a cat near his feet and he knew exactly who that cat belonged to.

*at the ship*

"What do you mean by that!" Everyone readied themselves in fight stances but Cheshire lifted her arms in sign of surrender. "Well well well, why the hostility I just came to answer your doubts."Lifting her mask to reveal her face she smirked playfully at Artemis. Then her gaze stopped in roy and gave him a quick wink. Everyone fell silent. Even if she had come in peace they couldn't just trust her like that.

"Why are you here" Artemis demanded keeping her hand near her bow. " A better question is why are you here?" She asked as she began walking around her.

Wally looked impatient as if he would flip out any minute. "You know,it isn't even my fault you are here, nor the fact that red here is injured." She gestured at red arrow and looked about to continue until Wally finally yelled. "Tell us why we are here already!"

Cheshire looked annoyed for his outburst but answered calmly. " Well if you're so insistent, you were brought here by that witch boy,who was it..." "Klarion!" Kaldur finished for her. "Yes him.. Well he said something about locking all the sidekicks in this dimension I just finished my job of bringing you here." She narrated seemingly bored and sat next to Roy crossing her legs. "I would try to get out of here before midnight if I were you." Everyone was silent, Cheshire just stared at Roy who was deep in thought. "How do we know this is true?" Artemis questioned afraid of the answer. "You don't." Her sister responded and with that she threw a smoke bomb and vanished.
