"What do we do?" Artemis asks.
"We contact the police in Star City," Dick says.
"What? I'm Tigress, a very deadly weapon."
"When you don the suit you're Tigress, without the suit you are just another civilian, who needs protection, protection that can only come from the law."
"Fine," Artemis says.
"Do you want me to come with you?"
"No, I will take Connor and Megan, they have seen it more than you, and Megan has taken pictures in case this day came."
"Let me make sure it's safe," Dick says taking his phone out.
"You don't have to keep me safe."
"Use the tube," Dick says in response after putting his phone away.
Artemis nods and walks to the portal.
"Tigress, B-07," the Zeta-Tube calls as she is teleported to Happy Harbor.
"Connor is still fighting Grant, get under my cloak," Megan says.
Artemis doesn't say anything, realizing that Dick is right and her second family will protect her.
Megan activates her camouflage.
They watch as Connor teaches Grant a lesson.
"Never put your hands on my friend!" Connor yells.
"She'll be back, they always come back," Grant smiles before leaving the house.
"Okay, he's gone," Connor says coming into the garage.
Megan ends the camouflage and they walk inside.
"I need the pictures, I'm done with him."
Megan walks down the hall to her office.
"You can stay with us," Connor says.
"Thanks, but he found me here, I don't want to put you guys in danger."
"Where are you going to live?" Megan asks coming back with an unmarked manilla folder.
"I am going to live with Dick in Bludhaven."
"What if Grant finds you there?"
"Nightwing, B-01," the Zeta-Tube calls.
"In here Dick," Connor says.
"I just talked to Icon, he wants to see you, to help you, help get away from him."
"But how will we get there?"
"Zeta-Tube, there is a telephone booth in Dakota City."
"What's in that folder?" Megan asks noticing the folder in his hands.
"Evidence, all the times you guys, Will, or Jade took Artemis to the hospital for something he did," Dick puts emphasis on "he".
"Here are the pictures we took when she came to us after a fight," Megan gives the folder to Dick.
"Let's go," Dick says looking at Artemis.
Artemis gets up and they walk through the Zeta-Tube, taking the next steps to Artemis' freedom.
