KAMILA FELL TO the ground. Hard. And with a killer headache. It didn't help that she landed on her back, knocking the wind out of her.

"Ugh..." she groaned, the commotion causing everyone in attendance to snap their attention her way. "What... happened?"

Suddenly, two figures zipped to her side, one clad in red and the other in yellow. She felt the hand of her mentor on her shoulder steadying her as she stood up, and the fingers belonging to her boyfriend lacing between her own.

"Kace, slow down... what do you remember?" Barry asked. Fastest man alive telling her to slow down? Ironic...

Kamila took in her surroundings. She was in the main room of the cave, Batman, Canary, Green Arrow, and The Team all present. Captain Marvel and Barry, too, and the rushing footsteps told her more leaguers were coming. Captain Atom, Martian Manhunter, and Aquaman, by the looks of it.

While the majority of her team were sitting at a picnic table raised from the floor, Kaldur was standing close to the Dark Knight. Both looking at her with... an expression that confused Kamila.

They were talking about the mole. About Red Tornado.

"The reds... they attacked the cave. One of them... the girl, the fire one? She was trying to transmit a computer virus of some kind..." She looked over to Batman to explain directly to him, knowing he'd want details. "I couldn't control or power them off properly from a distance, I never could with Red Tornado, and it was the same with the other two. They knew that I think, probably from watching the team from afar or some kind of spy tech in Red Tornado I didnt pick up on before... I was trying to enter his circuitry when he attacked the team... the last thing I remember was passing out right before I could actually stop him... I wasn't fast enough to."

Kamila's eyes narrowed on the ground in a glare, but then she felt two hands slap the back of her head, "OW! What was that for?!"

"Yeah, babe, you of all people can't say that."

"Exactly, and don't be so hard on yourself. You did all you could," Barry smiled down at her and stood up, Wally already helping Kamila up.

"Hn" Batman nodded, clearly satisfied with her answer, "and because you were in your electrical state and the main power was still out, you could only come to when the generator was replaced, I assume... How are you feeling, Astra?"

"Better now that I'm standing," she replied, her hand still linked with Wally as he not so subtly checked her for injuries. She squeezed his hand once to reassure him she was okay.

"Good. Could you run a search to see if anything was stolen from our systems?"

Dinah stepped forward, "Batman, she just regained consciousness, let her rest before-"

Kamila nodded, ignoring Canary's concern, and soon screens began appearing all around here, tabs from the cave's system opening and closing faster than any of them could process. "That's... not good."

"What is it?" Robin asked, sitting up straighter in his seat.

There are traces of hacking and some sort of bypass key, they didnt take much... definitely not things we want out there, but things that can fix."

"What's missing?" Batman asked, a cold tension rising in the room.

"Coordinates. Most used zeta-tubes in major cities, mainly in Gotham, Central, Star, and Metropolis, but not in the classified locations like safe houses. Even the Fortress, or the Arrow and Bat caves' locations seem not to have been recorded... location of the Hall's Zeta-Tube, and... oh shit... the Watchtower. It's all the places where Tornado has access to, but the data is tracking all usage..."
