(A/N) WARNING: OOC Roy and oml... who allowed me to write at this age, I just wanna talk--
Anyways, enjoy this... whatever this is
I grinned as the team and I stepped out into the warm rays of the sun. I spread my arms out and bathed in the golden light. I was wearing a black one piece swimsuit with bright indigo accents. I smiled as I walked up behind Dick. He had his head down, so did M'gann.
"Why do you two look like someone just stole your ice cream?" I asked them seriously. M'gann looked shocked.
"Why would anyone do that?!" She exclaimed. "That's horrible. Don't even say that." She shivered. I smiled and turned to Dick. He looked up slowly.
"We were having a moment of silence for Wally." He lamented. My smile brightened.
"Any day without Mustard is automatically a good day in my book." I said. Dick's lips twitched upwards.
"But we must carry on without our friend," Dick said overdramatically, "It's what he would have wanted us to do." I snorted as he hung his head low. I rolled my towel up and snapped it towards his back. He yelped and jumped into the air.
"Enough of your melancholy speeches. Let's go enjoy our day." I said as the others ran ahead of us. His fake pout was replaced by a bright smile as I raced him to the water's edge.
We had a splashing contest that Superboy won by canon-balling into the ocean. I ended up knocking Dick's glasses off and quickly having to plunge his head underwater and shove the glasses on. I laughed as he came up sputtering and cursing in my general direction.
We grilled hotdogs on the beach. M'gann had never tried one before and we all watched in anticipation as she bit into her first hotdog. Her eyes grew huge and she picked up the whole bottle of mustard and squirted some in her mouth. Dick and I just about passed out while Supey and Kaldur just looked on rather disgusted. Then we got into a huge argument over which was better, ketchup or mustard which resulted in the beach getting its own dunes. Don't ask how. It just kinda happened.
We played a few games of volleyball and let's just say that Kaldur was still working on the whole 'balancing on sand' thing. Which was strange. You'd think a guy who lived in the ocean would have some knowledge about walking on sand. He ended up bumping into a lot of people.
To create mutual peace after the dune incident, we decided that a good team building exercise would be to bury Superboy in sand. Superboy had decided to take a nap and now the sand that he will be trying to get out of his ears forever will be his problem. I just have to make sure I don't take any naps on the beach.
But, like all good things, the day had to come to an end. Batman wanted us to meet our new teammate. I already knew her and Rob had already met her, so I convinced him to come to the top of the mountain with me. I opened a portal to the top, just in time to see the sun cast her final golden rays as she sunk below the horizon. The sky lit up like fire, before finally slipping to sleep.
I sighed as I stood next to my best friend. "I love dusk." I said simply. I looked to Dick to find him mumbling something. The only word I caught was 'you'. I narrowed my eyes slightly. "What was that, Dick?" I asked him. Just like the mission on Santa Prisca, his face burned red and he looked away.
"Nothing." He said. I was about to ask him again when M'gann radioed over the comms.
Dang your timing, M'gann.
"We're waiting for Wally so we can welcome our new teammate. Where are you?" She asked. I teleported us down into the Cave, right behind her.
"Where you least expect." I said spookily. She yelped and jumped into the air, quickly changing from a Caucasian skin tone to her regular leaf green. We all watched her for a second before she slowly descended, muttering apologies on her way down. Rob and I were trying to smother giggles when the computer made an announcement. "Recognized. KidFlash, B-0-3." The feminine voice called. I watched in slight amusement as our resident speedster appeared, loaded with all assortment of beach supplies.
