Mount Justice: September 22: 18:30 EDT.

A few days after his training session with Zatara, Nick was in his room. Nick's eyes were orange as he was levitating above his bed. Nick was in a trance, trying to focus his magic just like John Constantine and Asa The Healer had taught him.

After a while, Nick came out of his trance, and his eyes returned to normal. Nick spoke up. "Rewol." He recited. The spell caused Nick to lower down to his bed. Nick decided to see what the others were doing.

Nick left his room, and went looking for the others. Nick soon found M'gann and Connor kissing.

Nick spoke up. "Ahem." He coughed. M'gann and Connor looked at him.

M'gann spoke up. "Nick, we were just..." She began.

Nick smirked at his sister. "I know what you were doing, M'gann." He stated.

Connor scoffed. "Like you don't do the same with your girlfriend." He said.

Nick spoke up. "Ok, you have me there." He began. Connor smirked. Nick quickly added. "But, at least Z and I make sure that we are alone." He finished. The couple blushed.

Nick spoke up. "Well, I am just going to take my leave, because I am starting to feel awkward." He said. Nick left, with the couple watching him.

Nick decided to go to Gotham and meet up with Artemis. He went to the Zeta Tube and set it for Gotham. Nick entered the teleporter.

The computer spoke up. "Recognized: Red Wizard: B04." The computer said, teleporting Nick out of the Cave.

Gotham City: September 22: 18:45 EDT

Nick came out of the Zeta Tube inside phone booth. Nick opened the door, and stepped out.

After a while, Artemis arrived at the Zeta Tube. She saw Nick.

Artemis spoke up. "Magic man, what are you doing here?" She asked her 'little brother.'

Nick smiled. "After everything you have done for me, I wanted to check up on you." He told her. "I also did not want to see M'gann and Connor kissing." He thought to himself.

Artemis smiled back. She hugged Nick, who hugged her back, then released. Suddenly, Robin appeared, making Artemis gasp.

Robin spoke up. "Artemis? Wizard?" He asked.

Artemis spoke up. "Robin. L... Uh." She began.

Robin spoke up. "How random that you're both in Gotham City..." He began. Robin looked at Artemis. "I thought you would be in Star City where your uncle Green Arrow lives." He finished.

Nick spoke up. "I am here, because Arty told me to meet her here." He said. Robin looked at Artemis, who nodded quickly.

Artemis spoke up. "I'm, uh, here to see my cousin. She was in the state spelling bee here in Gotham City." She stated. Nick snorted, so Artemis smacked him upside the head.

Nick flinched, he looked at his blonde sister, to see that she was giving a look that said shut up, so he did.

Robin smirked at the two adoptive siblings. "So, about this spelling bee, I think that is C-O-O-L that your cousin took part. Did she W-I-N?" He asked.

Artemis narrowed her eyes. "N-O." She said.

Robin spoke up. "D-R-A-G." He said slowly.

Artemis spoke up. "Yeah. Let's just go to the cave." She said quickly.

Robin bowed. "Ladies first." He offered.

Nick spoke up. "But it's your town, you go." He countered.

Robin shrugged, and entered the Zeta Tube.
