The Amazing Spider-Man of Young Justice (Season 1)

A Bad Bad Dream

Mount Justice; October 16th, 16:21 EDT 

Peter shot up from the bed, breathing and sweating heavily. He looked around and saw almost everyone in the same condition as him.

Captain Marvel was slowly helping Wally up while Red Tornado helped Artemis. Conner was petting Wolf while Kaldur was slowly pushing himself up by his elbow on the bed. 

"Are you alright?" said a familiar female voice from behind him.

He turned around and saw the one and only... Jean Grey???

"Jean??" Peter questioned, "What're you-?"

"The league called in some help when you guys got stuck." She put a hand on his shoulder, "They wanted the professor, but he... he hasn't been himself since Logan."

Peter's eyes fell, "...What happened?"

She sat beside him on the bed, "It's best we wait for M'gann and J'onn to-"

M'gann and J'onn suddenly both woke up as M'gann gasped for air.She slowly sat up. She gasped in relief as she saw Conner sitting up, Wolf's giant head in his lap. "You're all alive!" she realized relieved. 

Robin sweated as he pushed himself to sitting, looking around."What happened in there?" Batman asked of Manhunter. 

"The exercise, it all went wrong." Manhunter said. 

"Exercise?" Robin's voice cracked as he heaved in his breaths. 

"Try to remember." Batman insisted."What you experienced was a TRAINING exercise." 

The Team was relaxing on the same bed they were all sitting on now. Wally and Kaldur were already laying back, Superboy propped up on one elbow as he petted Wolf. M'gann relaxing her hands under her head, Artemis was on her side, facing Peter as they were chatting their butts off. Robin was propped up on an elbow, looking to his mentor while Shazam stood nearby and Red Tornado was working on a HoloScreen. 

"Manhunter psychically linked the six of you within an artificial reality." 

Manhunter stood in the middle of the circle with his hands reached out and his eyes closed in concentration all of them were lying down seemingly asleep. 

"You all knew this going in. What you didn't know was that it was a train-for-failure exercise." 

The Team stood ready in a space void that seemed to be among the clouds. Their clothes shifted into their costumes and they now stood in Mount Justice. 

"No matter what the Team accomplished, the scenario was designed to grow worse. Still you were aware nothing was real, including the deaths of the entire Justice League." 

"That is why you hardly grieved." Manhunter picked up, probably mainly referring to Peter. "Even when Wolf was disintegrated before your eyes." 

Conner continued scratching at one of Wolf's ears."But all that changed when Artemis died." 

Peter looked over to the still silent Artemis as she looked at her hands in her lap. "Though consciously Miss Martian knew it was not real, her subconscious mind could not make that distinction. She forgot it was only an exercise. And her subconscious took control, making all of you forget too." 

The whole Team turned to a distraught M'gann."Uh, I'm ... I'm so sorry." she tried looking between both her teammates and her mentors. 

"This isn't her fault! Why didn't you stop the exercise?" Conner demanded. 

"They tried." Jean defended strongly. "But M'gann had a death grip on the scenario." 

Manhunter's hands fall back to his sides as M'gann is suddenly floating in the air, but still unconscious.
