Chapter 4: Continuing Phase One
Weeks pasted before Klaion even mentioned my mission.
"Amelia." We sat.
"Hmm?" I raised an eyebrow. "What?"
"We have arranged for two senior members of the Young Justice team to meet with you." Klarion said.
"How'd you do that?" I asked.
"They found me." He laughed. "With all the suspicious behavior at your school, they suspected something." This... This wasn't it. But, I'll play.
"When?"
"Right about-" The doorbell rang. "Now."
"Now?" I asked alarmed.
"Yes. Now hurry upstairs and act surprised when I call you." I jogged up the stairs and waited in the hall. Seconds passed, than minutes.
"Amelia, please join me downstairs." Finally. I trudged down the spiraling stairs.
"Yeah?" I asked half way down.
"We have guests." I had to hold my breath to keep from laughing, Klarion was acting. I walked into the couching area and grew wide eyed looking at Artemis, the archer, Robin, and Aqualad. I thought there would only be two.
"Hi... What's going on?"
"Come. Sit."

"Kid Flash B-0-3" The zeta-tube inside the cave buzzed.
"I am ready to paarrtaaay!" The red head ran into the room. He saw me and stopped dead in his tracks. "And who are you?"
"Silver, Silver Lining." I crossed my arms. "Your new team mate."
"Again guys." Kid Flash sighed. "With the not telling me thing."
"Sorry KF, but it was kinda unsuspected for us too." Robin said. "Batman wanted us to met her."
"Well, welcome. I guess." He greeted me.
"Thanks." I said. "So, what do you guys do now?"
"Well, we can watch tv," Wally began.
"You can help cook." M'gann pipped up.
"Or you can go on a mission." Batman appeared behind them.
"What is it?" Aqualad asked. "What's going wrong?"
"There has been an outbreak of ice themed attacks." He pulled up a screen. Images showed ice covered buildings, parks, and other public places.
"I though all the ice themed villains were in Bellerive." Superboy pointed out.
"Yes, we thought that as well. But we were not told that Icicle Jr. was released just a few days ago." Batman explained. "And was placed in patrol. His parolli informs us that he has not left his house, and has not been suspicious."
"Then who could have done it?" I asked.
"Unless the parolli is lying." Robin said. "Would make sense, knowing that the Dean of Bellerive awhile ago."
"Yes. This is a recon mission. Watch Icicle Jr. and his parolli." Batman informed. "Stealth mode."
"I don't know if I have a stealth mode." I shrugged. "Maybe I can... Dull the silver if I tried?"
"Try." Batman said dully. "Move out."

"Pizza delivery." I knocked on the door.
"Sweet!" A boyish voice shouted from inside. The door opened. "How much?"
"Free." I answered and dully as any pizza deliverer.
"Huh?" He asked confused. "No need to pay? Sweet!" He took the pizza without question. I walked down the street, when I was alone I put on the other bracelet. I transformed.
"So what will pizza do?" I asked mentally.
"Trackers inside the food." Robin replied.
"That's cool." I replied.
"That's Robin for ya." Kid Flash thought.
"Now what?" Miss. Martian asked.
"Now, we wait." Aqualad replied. I flew up on a tree and sat. And waited. And waited.
"How much longer?" I asked mentally. "We've been out here forever."
"Not much longer. His parolli just left." Aqualad replied. We sat, but nothing happened.
"Hey, Silver." I looked down and found Seth looking up.
"What are you doing here?" I asked in a low voice.
"Saying hi." Seth smiled.
"Here? Now?" I asked. "There are people here."
"So...?" He asked. "You on a mission."
"Yes get outta here." I shoes him away. "Bother me another time."
"Fine, fine." He shrugged and walked away. "See ya later."
"We've got movement." Aqualad conformed.
"On my way." I flew out of my hiding place. "Where to?"
"Icicle Jr's place." Artemis announced.
"What is that?" Kid Flash's voice echoed.
