Rachel had woken up when they took her home and she swore that she was okay and ready to get back in the fight. The team was confused and worried about who that woman was that they had fought, Conner was a bit more upset since he let her overpower him and he was taking that to heart.

"Who the hell was that? She just took us all out, it's like, we didn't stand a chance," Conner remarked in anger

"Look, we're all here, okay? We're all alive, that's all that matters, somehow, what Kory did drove her off which means she's not invincible," Dick stated trying to calm them down

"We're gonna find out who she is, how she fights, what her powers are, and the next time we see her, we're gonna be ready," Aria stated to the group

"Gar and Ria, stay here, keep an eye on Rachel, and Tim, I want you back at S.T.A.R. Labs," Dick directed everyone

"Why?" Tim asked confused

"Cause you almost died last night, I can't risk losing you," Dick admitted to the boy

"So, I'm off the team?" Tim asked in a hurt voice

"No, you start your Robin training today, you're gonna finally learn how to use that Bo staff, Kory and I have an errand to run," Dick stated making the woman confused

"We do?" Kory questioned the man

"We're gonna go meet someone, someone who can help us," Dick explained to her

"Dick, wait, she caught me off guard, next time I'll be faster and I know there's a way I can beat her,"

"Don't take this on by yourself, we're a team and we do it together," Dick directed the boy

Dick and Kory had walked out and Conner shook his head before leaving aswell, Aria wanted to help him but she didn't know how so she just followed and sat down next to him. She knew that he was probably questioning everything and she wanted to ease his thoughts.

"Dick isn't excluding you, he's trying to give you time to process everything," Aria spoke making him sigh

"You have to defend him, you're his girlfriend," Conner remarked to the blonde

"But you are my family and I love you," Aria corrected him while watching him

"I love you, too," Conner mumbled with a smile

"I don't know what it was like hearing everyone doubt you like that but I do know what it's like to feel alone so if you ever need to talk or anything, I'm here," Aria stated to the boy

"Do you think that everyone would judge me if I take a step back so I can think about it?" Conner asked making her heartbreak

"You are our family and we could never judge you," Aria stated making him nod

"It wasn't supposed to be like this," Conner whined to her

"You remind me a lot of Clark, he was having doubts in the beginning aswell but he powered through just like I know you will," Aria explained some more

Conner didn't say anything besides lay his head on her shoulder, they sat there for a while before they realized how quiet it was and they went to go see where Gar and Rachel were but they couldn't find them. Conner had gone to meet up with Tim at STAR Labs and Aria had found Gar and Rachel deep in the woods.

"What is that?" Aria asked pointing to the

"That's the tree I saw in my vision," Gar explained in a mumble

"What are they?" Rachel asked as she looked at them

"They're trophies, collected and slaughtered by a dark force, they're trying to tell me something," Gar explained to the girls

"What are they saying?" Aria asked with concern looking at the boy

"When the blood moon is full, the world will follow you," Gar spoke making them all grow confused

Aria shared a look with the other two at what he had just said, she was relieved that they were safe but she was also worried about what the flashes and visions meant for the teens. Her first thought was to stand in front of them but Gar walked a little in front as he looked between the trees.
