The next day came and the team return to the Mount Justice.

Aqualad: We have reason to feel proud of yesterday's victories. But one thing has not changed.

Robin: Somehow, the bad guys are still getting inside intel about us.

KidFlash: Yeah, but at least we know none of us were the mole.

EmeraldKnight: I say we go after the mole and put a stop to it once and for all.

Batman: That won't be necessary.

Batman: The mole was Red Arrow

Batman: The mole was Red Arrow.

Robin: Roy?

KidFlash: No way!

EmeraldKnight: This is heresy!

Aqualad: Batman, that cannot be. He was Green Arrow's protégé. We have all known him for years!

RedTornado: Unfortunately, the Roy Harper we have known for the last three years is another Project Cadmus clone.

Batman: We've learned the real Speedy was abducted and replaced immediately after becoming Green Arrow's sidekick. The clone was pre-programmed with a drive to join the Justice League. Which is why he was so angry over any delays to his admission and why he refused to join the Team. This Roy Harper had no idea he was a clone, or a traitor, and his subconscious programming drove him to become League worthy. So he struck out on his own, as "Red Arrow". And when he was finally admitted, his secondary programming kicked in and he attempted to betray the League to Vandal Savage. Fortunately, I had already deduced Red Arrow was a clone. We were prepared.

RedTornado: Savage was subdued, but Red Arrow escaped. He is now a fugitive, armed and dangerous.

Superboy: If you guys hadn't rescued me from Cadmus...

Robin: What happened to the real Roy?

Batman: We don't know. He isn't in Cadmus. We have to face the possibility that the real Roy Harper...is dead.

The four boy were speechless, not realizing about Roy until today.

Aqualad: The Clone Roy. The Team will find him.

Batman: Negative. Red Arrow is a member of the Justice League now. Leave him to us. I'm needed on the Watchtower. Tornado, stay with the kids.

Batman heads to the zeta tube and leaves before the team speaks telepathy.

Aqualad: Clone or no clone, Red Arrow was one of us. We WILL go after him.

RedTornado was about to do something, but for some reason, he malfunction and power down. Catching everyone attention.

MissMartian: 'Tornado!'

Superboy: 'What happened to him?'

KidFlash: 'He's totally powered down.'
