"This is not how I wanted to spend this day." I grumbled, risking a glance around my hiding place.
"How did you wish to spend it?" Kaldur asked, pulling me backwards. An attack shot through where my head had just been.
"Going to visit our friends. How many people do you think I can take down?"
"Do not do anything reckless."
I raised an eyebrow, causing him to sigh.
"Try to be less reckless at the very least. As for the amount...fourteen."
You guys okay? Wally asked.
Yes, focus on protecting Miss Martian.
I'll...I'll be fine.
"Who are these people anyway?" I asked, risking looking around the corner again. Water darted out and slammed into a group of enemies, knocking them unconcious.
"The Cult of the Kobra and Psimon. Be careful, he has psychic abilities. The last time we faced him, he wiped our memories."
I sighed and moved back. I do not feel like forgetting everything again. Also I do not feel like drinking Gorgon's blood again.
"I will not let anything happen to you." Kaldur assured.
"You need to stop being concerned about me. I can handle myself."
"I have no doubts of that, but-"
I was slammed into Kaldur, who in turn was slammed into a wall. I quickly stood, keeping my body relaxed as I stared at our attacker.
"You are foolish to try and stop-" Kobra cut off as I kicked him.
"I know I am foolish, but that has never stopped me before." I smiled and blocked an attack.
"You are nothing more than a mosquito to me. I am a god, you insolent mortal."
"Aquagirl, can you handle this?"
"I will be fine. Go help the others." I blocked a punch.
Kaldur rushed away from me to go protect Megan. She had been caught by surprise and she is barely maintaining the link. Which Kaldur was initially opposed to but the benefits outweighed the risks.
I was handling myself well in the fight, dodging or blocking Kobra's attacks and countering with my own. His attacks slowed, causing me to smile.
"Perhaps I may be of assistance." Psimon spoke.
"I do not need your help!" Kobra's attacks sped up, though I kept pace. Atlantean combat training mixed with demigod training means I am fairly skilled in hand to hand combat.
"How do you keep pace with a god?!"
"You are no god." I growled. I went from fighting actual deities to someone with a god complex.
"Enough of this foolishness." Psimon waved a hand and I was lifted into the air. "Let's see how strong your mind is."
"I have a question, is that your brain or-" Psychic energy blasted my mind and I groaned.
"Aquagirl!" Wally yelled, speeding over. He kicked Psimon before grabbing me.
"You okay hot stuff?" He sat me down beside Megan.
I rubbed my head and looked at Wally. "I will be fine."
My answer appeared to be satisfactory to him, but Kaldur knows me better than the rest of the Team.
"Will you truly be fine or is this simply you being dismissive?"
"I will not answer that as you will not believe me if I say I am fine. Please help me up."
He knelt down and wrapped my arm over his shoulder before helping me up. "We should leave before reinforcements arrive."
"Yeah, I don't think Miss M is feeling the aster." Robin looked at her and Connor.
In response to his statement, Megan said nothing. She had fallen into unconsciousness.
"You're going to have to drive Kaldur." Artemis said. "I'll have to make sure Kid Mouth doesn't end up blowing us up with his 'souvenir'."
"You're the one with the explosive arrows!"
We walked towards the Bioship. She seemed to take pity on us, landing and automatically configuring for manual navigation.
Kaldur led me to my seat and looked me over once before moving to Megan's chair.
The trip home seemed longer than usual, though Kaldur driving may have added time.
"And the way that you kicked Shimmer into that wall? That was awesome!"
"Not as awesome as-" Robin was cut off by Kaldur.
"We are landing. Go take a shower while I tend to Megan."
"I can handle it." Connor growled.
"I have no doubt of that my friend, but you fought well and deserve some rest. Percy, stay in the shower for a little longer than usual."
"I am fine Kaldur. I have dealt with worse. I still have my memory."
"If anything happens to you, I will get grounded. So remain in the shower for longer."
I stood up and stared at Kaldur. His gaze did not waver. With his lack of response, I followed the others out.
I stopped in my bedroom to grab a change of clothes. When I turned around, I was trapped. Kaldur was standing in my doorway.
"Percy, our king has given me permission to return home for the night. I am not sure if it extends to you as well, but are you coming with me?"
"You have not returned home in quite awhile Kaldur, you should not risk upsetting our king by inviting me."
I walked forward and took his hand. "I feel like Batman told him you could go. I do not want to get you in trouble. Tell Mother I am well?"
"Of course, though you know she will want to see you soon."
His tattoos glowed and his emotions flooded through me.
"You do not have to worry about me. I will be fine." I wrapped my arm up around his neck so I could pull him into a hug.
"I will always be worried for you, you are in constant danger." He pulled away.
I put my hand around his throat, as if I were choking him. "Enjoy tonight and do not make Mother and Father worry about me. Or else."
"Or else what?"
"I will never give you any of Aunt Sally's cookies again."
His eyes widened and I dropped my hand.
"I will return sometime tomorrow. I will grab some of your other clothes."
"Thank you. Oh and can you ask around and see if any of our friends have some clothes I may have? I feel as if our enemies focus on me for a different reason."
He nodded. "Tell me the next time. It is my job to protect you."
"It is not your job Kaldur." I growled.
"I am your brother! I am your older brother. The elder twin. That makes it my job to care about and protect you!"
I stared at him, before pushing past him. "Tell everyone hello."
By the time I showered, changed, and back in my room Kaldur had left.
I laid in my bed and closed my eyes.
Right before I drifted to sleep, I tensed. Something is off.
I didn't know what until I actually fell asleep.
So
I have to go back to school tomorrow
Happy Easter
