Robin's POV

Well. That was certainly unexpected. Kaldur thought through the mindlink.

SHE'S QUEEN BEE'S DAUGHTER! Wally screeched.

Yeah, that's pretty... something. Artemis agreed.

I think it's just sad. Meg'ann relayed.

Superboy expressed emotions of confusion.

Why would she save Robin if she was Queen Bee's daughter? He asked.

You can't judge someone by who their parent is. Artemis sighed.

Yeah, just look at Robin. Wally joked. He's nothing like Bats.

I rolled my eyes.

So what are we going to do about this? Meg'ann asked.

There is nothing to do. Our friend is still the same as before, knowing her heritage changes nothing. Especially if we found out through unfavorable means. Kaldur stated.

Kaldur is right. We need to act the same as before. I said.

"Team. Please report to the mission room." Batman said over the intercom.

"Last one there is a rotten egg!" KF yelled before taking off.

I quickly followed behind him.

Batman stood in the center of the room.

"Now that Red Tornado is absent, the team will be supervised by rotating Leaguers. Captain Marvel/Shazam has volunteered to take the first shift." He explained.

Captain Marvel/ Shazam stepped up. "I'm so excited to hang with you guys!" He exclaimed, honestly excited.

Then Batman pulled up a holographic newspaper. The screen read, Gotham Mayor Attacked by Gorilla Gorilla.

"You can't be serious." Kid Flash said.

"Batman, please tell me your joking about sending us on this wild goose chase." Robin pleaded.

"I never joke about the mission." He said. "I've studied the patterns, this is only the latest in a sequence of attacks. Aqualad. You and your team of seven will depart to check this out."

"Seven?" Miss. Martian asked.

"Yes. You'll be accompanied by Sharp. She has experience in the field and has agreed to help."

"Agreed?" Sharp mumbled, making me glance over to where she leaned against the wall, unnoticed until now.

"But she's blind!" KF exclaimed.

"Not right now." Batman said calmly before turning away and walking off.

"Your team?" Kid Flash asked before walking past Aqualad.

The rest of the team and I walked off angrily who could blame us? Aqualad didn't tell his team about knowledge of the mole.

Sharp's POV

The tension in the air was thick as the team brushed past Aqualad angrily.

I walked up to him.

"Welcome to our team, Sharp." He said.

Usually, I would be rude and make some comment on how I didn't really agree to this, but I felt bad for the guy, so I just smiled softly and nodded.

We arrived at the Bioship, the team walking in. I spotted Captain Marvel/ Shazam walking into the Bioship ahead of Robin and Kid Flash.

"Translation," I heard Robin say, "He doesn't trust us."
