Bethany's POV

I didn't mean to close my eyes. Honest. But I think it was some sort of natural human instinct.

Right when I heard the BANG! For the second time tonight, my eyes instinctively closed. And for a split second, I actually saw the light through my eyelids. Was that the light at the end of the tunnel?

But the bullet never came.

I peeked one eye open and noticed a dozen bulleta hovering right in front of me, inches from my face.

My eyebrows scrunched together, confused. What was the world coming to?

I looked around me and saw M'gann floating a couple feet on my right. She had her arms outstretched towards the bullet and her eyes were fully glowing.

And then a gray blur flashed in front of me so fast that the wind from it pushed my hair back from my face. I looked back up, but the bullets weren't floating in front of me anymore!

Mercy looked just as confused and looked around her for a second.

"Looking for these?" Kid Flash held up a gloved palm full of bullets and leaned against a tree casually. A lopsided grin covered his face as he looked over at my shocked expression.

He started tossing the bullets onto the ground, one by one, while proclaiming, "Love me, love me not, love me, love me not, LOVE ME!" He held up the winner bullet. "Looks like we're going on a date after this, Huntress!" He wiggled his eyebrows.

A flash of annoyance pierced through my stomach. Did he forget what him and Team had said to me?! Pathetic. I looked back up at Mercy and she wordlessly pointed her gun at Kid Flash and started shooting at him, but Wally was just a blur.

Back at the chopper, Psimon jumped out to come back for me, but he was thrown by an invisible force once he set one foot out of the chopper. M'gann flew over to his sprawled out body.

Cheshire somersaluted out of the chopper, along with Sportsmaster. He had a sinister grin on his face, like he had been waiting for a fight. He headed toward me like a tiger, but then his arm swiftly reached up and caught an arrow that was coming straight for his face. He turned his head to the where it came from and smiled smugly at Artemis, who was perched on a tree far off to my right. She smiled and waved back before a gust of smoke billowed from the arrow he had caught, making him and Cheshire cough and gasp.

A stream of water shot into the chopper and pulled Lex Luthor out. Aqualad curled the water around him and hoisted him into the air, much to Queen Bee and her dozens of soldiers dismay.

Somewhere behind me, Superboy's battle cries could be heard as he most likely was getting shot at by Mercy.

I struggled against Bane, trying to join the fight, but his grip only tightened, causing me to gasp. He hoisted me to stand up and started shoving me towards Rose's dead body.
