Mount Justice 12:05 A.M. EDT

"Recognized. Blue Beetle B22. Impulse B23" said the cave computer as both heroes were transported inside. The two heroes had were hanging out when they were attacked by Kaldur, The Terror Twins, Icicle Jr., and an unknown ninja girl.

"Haha! We left them in the dust!" Impulse said playing with the device he took from Kaldur.

"Who did they bite the dust?" asked Nightwing walking along with Spider-Man, who had been helping the Team more since Artemis' "death, towards the two newcomers. "And what is that?"

"A souvenir!" said Bart extremely happy.

"Souvenirs are Beast Boy's thing, ese." said Jaime.

"Really? I thought they were from Kid Flash"

"Can we please get to the point guys?" Spider-Man said starting to lose patience.

"Sorry. Aqualad attacked us with Icicle Jr., the Terror Twins and a ninja girl I didn't recognize" Blue Beetle replied.

"And with this they tracked down Blue" Impulse said with a smug smile "They won't be able to do it again"

Nightwing frowned. More than usual "So you brought possibly alien technology into the cave? Rookie mistake!" Both young heroes lowered their heads in embarrassment at their mistake. Nightwing rubbed his face "Okay. Give me it here" Bart handed it to him, where they began to analyze it.

...

Just as Kaldur said, they infiltrated Mount Justice. When they were only a few kilometers away, they dove down to use the hangar's underwater exit as an entrance. Kaldur was the first out, having the clear advantage of the water and holding a large bag on his left shoulder. As he walked up the small stairs, thousands of memories flashed through his mind. The first time they formed the team and they were very inexperienced working with each other. New members joining the team. His encounter with the Red Tornado brothers. Perhaps not all were worth looking at with the same sentiment, but they were meaningful memories.

It was a shame it had to come to this.

He tensed when Sphere intercepted him at the water's edge. He placed his hand on the strange alien vehicle. Even with all the years, there were many things they didn't know about the Sphere. Seeing her go calmly and without alarming anyone, he knew that he knew that he was not the villain that he made her friends believe. Whether or not he was good for the mission, he didn't know. But he didn't have time to worry about it now.

Tigress slipped through the ventilation ducts towards the kitchen. As Kaldur told her, Wolf was there, sleeping on the couch in front of the TV as usual. He was beginning to believe that he was some kind of cross with a cat because of the amount of sleep he had. The gigantic white wolf raised his head for a moment but lay down again. It wasn't too difficult to put the inhibitor collar on him without waking him up. She would later apologize to Conner for this.

Beast Boy was inside his room, lying on his bed, watching one of the old episodes of his mother's show. It was a little custom he picked up with M'gann when he moved to Mount Justice. He felt that it was a way to stay connected with his mother. Someone knocked on his door. He jumped out of bed doing a pirouette and opened the door without asking who he was. He had no time to react, when the last thing he saw before he fell unconscious was Tuppence Terror's fist.

Down in the Grotto, Conner stopped to pay his respects to the holographic statue of Artemis. 

Then he heard something. Steps, more than one person. They definitely weren't approaching with the intention of paying respect to the fallen. He ducked to dodge a shot from an ice blast. Tommy Terror tackled him, his arm around the super clone's neck.
