Baby Justice

Chapter 11: Little Arrow Family

Star City

As the light flooded the master bedroom of Oliver's house he slowly began to wake up. He smiled as he saw Zatanna sleeping on his chest, Artemis snuggled up with Dinah, and Roy all twisted up in the covers in the middle of them.

It was then Zatanna started to wake up her little eyes fluttering open and funny little smile directed at him.

"Well good morning sweetheart how did you sleep last night?"

"Goo Dady!" The little girl squealed.

Oliver smiled at her as he then proceeded to raise her up in the air making her laugh uncontrollably. Then Artemis, Dinah, and Roy woke up smiling and laughing at the happy baby girl.

After they spent a few more minutes in bed they all got up and headed to the kitchen for breakfast. Dinah fed Zatanna some little bits of toast with peanut butter and jelly. While Oliver poured Artemis and Roy bowls of cereal he luckily had in his house.

From there Oliver and Dinah tag teamed on getting all the kids changed and ready for the day. They put Zatanna in a red stary onesie with black jeans, Artemis in a green tank top, camo jeans, and little combat boots, and Roy in a maroon sweater and black jeans.

After that they let the kids play for about an hour while Dinah went off to the store to get a few necessities they needed. Once an hour had passed Oliver decided that he should do something with the kids since they pretty much were kept inside for two days straight.

"So what are we going to do today kids?" Oliver asked wondering how he was going to entertain them.

All three looked at each other none of them quite sure of what to say. But then an idea popped into their heads after they caught a glimpse of one of their stuffed animals.

"The Zoo!" They all cried out excitedly.

"Ok then sounds like something fun." Oliver agreed figuring it would be a good way to get them outside.

"Yeah there will be lots of different things to see so it'll be lots of fun!" Dinah chimed as she walked in getting the kids even more excited.

Before they all headed out Dinah packed a bag with extra diapers and wipes for Zatanna, snacks, hats, water, and several other things she thought they might need. Then she and Oliver both put all three of the car seats that Dinah bought at the store in Oliver's little car. It luckily had a decent sized back seat, being a nice but smaller car, so it was able to fit the three car seats they had.

Once they both buckled up the kids they headed off to the local zoo. All the kids were bouncing up and down as soon as they got into the parking lot. From there they paid and then entered the zoo all the kids eyes bulging with wonder.

The Star City zoo was quite well known for having a very eclectic and large sloo of animals. Everything from pairanas to orangutans was there. Roy like any other four to six year old boy loved the tough looking animals so all the jungle and prairie cats like lions and tigers were his favorite. Artemis was a fan of the birds loving their colorful feathers and magnificent wings. Zatanna loved the aquarium absolutely mesmerized by all the fish and other sea creatures particularly the dolphin.

They wondered about the zoo for nearly three hours admiring all the animals they saw. It was all so amazing to the little ones with Oliver and Dinah.

They were eventually getting near the end of their visit to the zoo and decided to see the monkeys last. At the moment Oliver had Zatanna in his arms while he held Roy's hand and Dinah held Artemis so she could see the primates fooling around.

"Dinah ook a tha funny baoon!" Artemis laughed as she pointed to the baboon dancing around.

"Yeah that's very funny Artemis, have you had a good day so far honey?"
