Gotham City || September 22, 07:30 EDT ||

Arthur is reading a book while walking without any particular destination he headed. Dick is with Ruby and wasn't surprised by his antics. Considering he dragged the scarlet-haired girl on purpose to avoid someone, Artemis. Dick didn't want Artemis to find out Ruby is attending this school and might use it any advantages against her.

"Arthur?" He stopped and looked up to see Artemis is with the student liaison, Bette, who's touring Artemis the entire campus. "You-you-" She stuttered and looked shocked to see him.

"Hi-hi, Ar-Ar-Arthur." Bette greeted Arthur with a blush on her face seeing the Sweet Prince himself.

"Hello, girls." Arthur greeted them with his usual gentle smile that makes the girls swoon by his usual gentleness. "Artemis, is it your first day of school?" Pretending he didn't know Artemis is starting today.

"Ye-yeah." She stared at Bette who looks like going to pass out seeing Arthur.

"Welcome to Gotham Academy." Arthur gives Artemis a warm welcome. "Thank you for touring my friend, Bette."

"He-he knows my name..." Bette whispered Artemis with a big smile on her face. "You-you-you're wel-welcome Ar-Ar-"

"Yo, Arthur!" One of the Gotham students called him. "We are going for training in 10 minutes." He informed the brunette.

"Well... duty calls, till we meet again." He bows down politely at them and went towards his swimming club he joins.

"Isn't he amazing?" Bette sighs with a dazed look on her face. "I wish Arthur is my boyfriend."

Artemis mentally groaned and showed a nervous smile towards Bette. "Is he really that popular?"

"Yes!" Bette exclaimed happily. "Arthur is known as Sweet Prince due to his gentleness and kindness towards other people." She rambled more about Arthur and Artemis regrets for asking it.

Who knew Arthur Nelson could be so popular and gain a title for this school? No wonder Arthur is a popular guy despite he's trying to be civil both girls and boys. Poor him, he never catches a break with them.

Ruby tilts her head innocently and trying to concentrate to do her 3D bedroom and mood board by using recycling materials. They've been given a task to create their own dream bedroom that links to their mood board.

"Wow, you're very creative." She turned around to see Barbara is watching her project with an amazed look on her. "You made a Popsicle stick as a bed and using the fabric as curtains."

"Thanks." She blushed by the compliments. "I usually do craft activities with the children at the orphanage when I'm off."

"That explains why..." Ruby yelped in surprised of someone hugging her behind. "You're gifted, my gem."

"Di-Di-Dick." Ruby stuttered and blushing furiously while Barbara feels sorry for her. "Hi-hi-hi."

"Don't be nervous around me, Ruby." Dick assured the scarlet-haired girl. "You're very creative this kind of stuff." He compliments her work.

"Thanks..." She beamed in happiness. "I asked one of the Drama class to see if I could use any materials that have not been used."

"Aren't you a lucky person." Dick blinks his eyes. "Usually they won't allow anyone to share."

"Or maybe because they couldn't resist her beauty?" Barbara teased Ruby and she blushed in return. "Don't worry, I won't allow anyone to corrupt you." She glared at Dick which he returned with a smirk.

"Ahaha..." Ruby laughs nervously and starting to see Barbara and Dick are glaring each other. She didn't expect both of them are rivals for which one of them is best to Ruby as a friend.

Paris, France || September 22, 12:30 EDT ||

Aaliyah did a backflip while holding her pompom. She raises left hand and giving them a wink to the audience. Loud of cheers from the audience as Aaliyah and her team waving at them before going back to their seats.

"I hope we win this competition, Aaliyah." One of her cheerleading members, Victoria, whispered at her ear.

"Me too." Aaliyah whispered back.

She's a foreign exchange student of Sorbonne University in France because Aaliyah wanting to become a Doctor in the future. She wants to gain knowledge and use it to expand her healing skills.

Each one of the University are competing for the best Cheer dance 2010. Aaliyah was forced to join cheer dance because one of the members of cheerleading, Sierra Fray, saw her dancing at the rooftop not knowing Aaliyah is training her skills. The whole team managed to persuade her to join them because no one in their club had won a trophy before.

Aaliyah hates a loud noise especially she has sensitive hearing due to her heightened senses. The blonde girl is trying her best to tune them out but only focus on important things. She stared at her audiences and found a certain someone is watching her from far.

"Ka-Ka-Ka-Kaldur?" Aaliyah whispered and looked shocked how Kaldur managed to find her here, competing another University.

"Who?" Victoria overheard her murmuring.

"No-nothing." She shakes her head and focusing on the competition. "There's nothing to worried about." Aaliyah assured her.

Aaliyah decided to confront Kaldur after this competition. There's no mistake of his scent is an ocean and not an imposter. It makes her curious why he's here to see her for.

Everyone yelled for their victory. Aaliyah's team won the first place of Cheer dance competition because of Aaliyah's help. Without Aaliyah, they would never win the competition and they have achieved it finally. Everyone are having a party except for Aaliyah for she is waiting for someone to approach her.

"Aaliyah." She turned around to see Kaldur approached her wearing his civilian clothes to cover his gills around his neck.

"Kaldur-san..." Aaliyah smiled politely at the Atlantean and he returned the gestures. "I'm quietly surprised you watched our cheerleading competition."

"Arthur told me where you are and I didn't mean to impose my arrival." Kaldur spoke up and Aaliyah shakes her head.

"No worries, you caught me off guard to see you." She assured him. "What brings you here?"

"I came here to see how you were doing." Kaldur spoke up and couldn't bring up the topic of what he heard from Sportsmaster of having a mole in their team at Tapei.

"Force against my own will to join their team just to win for our University." Aaliyah shrugged her shoulders. "I balance it well between my education and personal life."

"I see... why do you want to become a Doctor, Aaliyah?" Kaldur asks Aaliyah curiously.

"I wanted to save people's lives and use my power to cure them." Aaliyah explained it to the Atlantean. "I have healing powers but never mastered it yet on the critical, only the minor ones."

"Why didn't you ask Kurama for it?" Kaldur questioned her since Kurama has healing abilities like Aaliyah.

"His techniques are different from mama taught me." Aaliyah answered and staring at the clear blue sky. "She only taught me both offensive and defensive techniques, not healing ones. My element is water and lightning."

"If you would like, I could ask my King to bring a book for your healing." Kaldur suggested and Aaliyah shakes her head.

"I don't want to impose, Kaldur-san." She waved it off on how Kaldur is willing to help Aaliyah out.

"I insist." His web-hands holds her small warm hands. "Please Aaliyah."

"I-I-I..." She sighs heavily seeing his pleading look. "Fine and in return... can you teach me to read your language?"

"It would be an honor." He smiled gently and Aaliyah blushed slightly as she coughs lightly.

"I should get back my team before they would ask a security guard to find me." Aaliyah steps back away from him.

"Congratulations on the winning." He congratulates her and her team.

"Thank you."

Three girls are patrolling their home to see if there are any crimes. Mostly they stopped the robbery or kidnapping towards other people.

"This is soooo boring." Angel whined and sighs heavily. "I wanted more actions."

"Be careful what you wish for, Angel." Celestial teased Angel and stared at Kitsune who's in deep thought. "Is everything alright, Kitsune?" She asks her curiously.

"Yeah. It is unusual for you to be so quiet. You usually give us an order during a night patrol." Zara pointed out and Kitsune stared at them.

"We should head back to the cave." Kitsune informed them. "I feel like something terrible is happening... we should contact Saber."

"Sure." Angel tried to call Saber at the cave but no one answered it. "Strange... shall I call again, Kitsune?"

"Try Robin." Celestial suggested. "Maybe Saber is busy and didn't answer our call."

"I should do that." Kitsune tried to call the boy wonder but didn't answer. "We should head over the cave, now." It makes her heart beating so fast in fear and anxious.

"Ha-hai! (Ye-yes!)" Both girls agreed with her.

Three mages went inside of the abandoned phone to get inside access of the cave.

"Celestial B04"

"Angel B05"

"Kitsune B07"

"LOOK OUT!" Someone warned Kitsune as she dodges the fireball heading towards her.

"KITSUNE! ANGEL! CELESTIAL!" Artemis cried out their names and feels relief to see them. However, she is scared of their well-being and might get captured by them.

"Guys!" Celestial looked worried about them.

Superboy, Saber and Superboy got trapped by a metal around their bodies. Aqualad and Miss Martian got caged by a fire, Robin got knocked out and Artemis was tied up around her arms. It makes Kitsune furious and unleashing her enormous magic power. Surrounded by blue aura around her body as the clouds appeared above their heads, causing to create a heavy storm. None of them noticed Kitsune's eyes glowed brighter behind her half-mask because she's mad at the two red unknown androids.

"Kitsune snapped." Saber whispered and gets scared by her raw power. "She's getting serious." He never seen her anger before and finally realizes why they feared her. They just snapped Kitsune to show her true powers.

"Can Kitsune destroyed the whole Mount Justice?" Kid Flash asks Saber curiously. "Is it true what Angel told us?"

"If she didn't control her powers, Kitsune could destroy the entire Mount Justice." Saber answered and gulped nervously. "She's our only hope to stop them... if not... Celestial can and I highly doubt Kitsune would allow it to happen."

The fire cage is disappeared by the storm as Aqualad held Miss Martian to protect his friend. Aaliyah's body surrounded by water mixed with lightning while Angel carried Celestial to distance themselves away from the Dragon Slayer.

"You two invaded our cave...." Kitsune spoke up in a cold tone and glared at them with hatred. "Holding them as hostages. This ends now!" She eats all of the water before Superboy, Kid Flash and Saber could get drowned by it.

"She drinks water!?" Kid Flash exclaimed with a fearful look on his face. "How strong is Kitsune!?"

"Celestial and Zara, get back!" Kitsune yelled them and run towards the two red androids both male and female.

"She's fast." Superboy commented and Saber nodded his head.

"I've never seen her this serious before." Saber informed them and his brother wasn't bluffing when Kitsune is more than qualified enough to be part of The League.

"Look out, Kitsune!" Artemis warned Kitsune.

Kitsune dodges the fireball and grabbed the female red android arm then throws it towards male red android. "It's over, Zhao Yun!"

Celestial immediately calls Zhao Yun to aid their help as he struck powerful lightning towards the two androids to make them shut down.

"It's over by just three moves." Angel commented and placing Celestial down. "I felt sorry whoever created them."

"Kaldur, how's M'gann?" Superboy asks the Atlantean worriedly of Miss Martian's condition.

Aaliyah kneels down and placing her hand on Miss Martian's forehead. Her hand's glowed in blue and disappeared. "She's safe and needs more rest to recover her strength back." Aaliyah answered and stared at Aqualad worriedly. "How are you feeling?"

"I feel fine and the storm that you create gives back my strength back." Aqualad answered and Kitsune sighs in relief.

"How's Robin, Artemis?" Celestial asks the green archer worriedly and goes to their side.

"He's breathing too." Artemis answered and Celestial removes the rope around her arms.

"You girls rock." Robin commented and smiled weakly at Celestial.

"Oh, Robin." Celestial suddenly hugged the boy wonder gently. "You scared us."

"Sorry young maiden, for making you worried." He smirked behind Celestial's back and returning the gestures. "You girls made a right timing to save us."

"We would also like to know how they ambushed us here." Angel spoke up.

"I see... they just ambushed you guys out of nowhere and they pretend to be Red Tornado." Kitsune spoke up.

Everyone explained they get caught by two red androids and almost got killed by them. They were lucky enough for those three made it in time before the League showed up to save them.

"How come you girls came late?" Robin asks them curiously.

"The crimes are getting high and we need to stop robberies or terrorists attack." Kitsune answered. "It took us longer than we expected... we're still investigating for this unusual crime."

"We tried to call you guys but no one answered." Celestial spoke up. "We're starting to get worried and decided to go to the cave."

"I'm glad that you girls showed up." Saber spoke up. "I'm surprised that you manage to control your magic, Kitsune."

"Angry? Yes. Control? Yes." Saber gives the Water Dragon Slayer a look. "Do you really think that I could-"

"Will you quit playing with that thing and cut us free already?" Kid Flash snapped at Artemis angrily.

"It's not working, genius." Artemis retorted back. "EMP shuts down all machines, remember?" She asks him in a sarcastic tone.

"Why can't Kitsune or one of Celestial's spirits to free us?" He whined and Kitsune sighs heavily.

"I might hurt you guys and I could destroy that machine..." Kitsune pointed the machine on Artemis hand she holds. "I don't use lightning on solo but mix instead."

"Her main element is water, not lightning." Angel pointed out.

"How come she could use lightning?" Superboy asks them curiously.

"Long story short... she ate the lightning and her magic fuse it together." Celestial spoke up. "Kitsune was bed rest on that for 4 days then she can use both water and lightning."

"Talk about a greedy girl." Kid Flash muttered and Kitsune glared at him. "Oops?"

"How can we use machines when it's shutdown?" Celestial asks curiously.

"All machines present at the time." They turned around to see Red Tornado showed up. "What has occurred?" He asks them curiously.

"Had a little visit from your family." Robin grumpily answered.

"Your extremely nasty family." Artemis snapped at the red android.

"I was not aware I had relations." Red Tornado answered.

"How did they find out this place... is a bit suspicious." Kitsune whispered and Aqualad nodded his head. "Where have you been, Red Tornado-san?" She asks him curiously.

"Monitor duty in Watchtower." Red Tornado answered and approaching the two knockdown androids. "When it became clear cave communications were down, I attempted to investigate. But your zeta tubes were also nonfunctional. I transported to Providence and proceeded here."

"I see..." She nodded her head in understanding as Sphere finally sets itself free from trapping it on the wall.

"Hey, boy." Superboy greeted the alien robot.

"Wait, Red Tornado don't-" Celestial tried to warn Red Tornado.

Red Tornado failed to hear her warning and connected the female android. His eyes flashed red as he attacked them. He is sucking the air out of them to knock them out.

"Kit... sune... Kitsune, wake up." Kitsune groaned and opened her eyes to see Knight is holding her worriedly. "Kitsune?"

"Knight-san?" She murmured and coughs lightly. "Where-"

"They are here and alright." Knight assured her.

"What happened!?" They heard Artemis angry voice. "The Reds happened. Tornado and his... wait, where are they?" She asks them curiously.

"Gone." Robin answered in a grim tone. "All three of them gone..."

"Where's Angel?" Kitsune noticed the halfling is not with them.

None of them couldn't look into her eyes and it makes her heart race in fear. She stands up and trying to look for Angel. "I'm asking you guys again, where.is.Zara."

"They-they-they took her, Kitsune." Celestial answered with a sad expression. "They took Zara."

"No-no-no-no." She shakes her head furiously. "Zara can't be gone, Rubina!"

"We're not lying, Aaliyah." Knight told her with a worried look on his face. "They took her."

"Why would they need her?" Kitsune whispered and hugging her arms. "Zara..."

None of them could be able to comfort Kitsune and Celestial. They feel worried about Zara well-being because she's the youngest of their team. Kitsune vowed to find and save Angel from harm even if it means breaking a promise to save her.
