The team sat on the couch, surrounding the TV.

There was no mission and they were bored behind control.

Connor just sat watching the static, but even then, the static was getting pretty boring and his mind started to wander.  M'gan was lifting things with her mind and moving them around the place, reorganizing and reorganizing again.  Kaldur was sorting through his picture box, looking at pictures of him and Roy and Robin and Wally, when they weren't being superheroes, those were the good old times.  Artemis was restringing her bow, but not really in to it, she was more just staring at the wall and thinking.  Robin was hacking into random websites from his computer glove.  Wally was eating, eating, and eating some more, he wasn't really paying attention to what he was doing, which is why when he accidentally flipped the cookie bowl into the air..

"Wally!" Artemis shouted, picking the cookie crumbs out of her newly strung bow,"I literally just strung this!  Now I have to string it again!"

"Well you've got time!" Wally hollered back,"It's not like any of us have anything better to do."

"It is true." Kaldur nodded,"The Batman has not assigned us any mission yet."

"I wish he would." Connor mumbled.

"Me too." M'gan agreed.

"Wait," Connor brightened, having a great thought,"Robin?"

"Yeeess?" Robin answered, eyes not leaving his computer glove.

"Is there anything bad happening in the world today? Something major?  Something that will take our minds off of being bored?" Connor hopefully asked.

The whole team turned to Robin, their eyes filled with hope.

"Nope, looks like nothing is happening." Robin replied,"It's like all the villains decided to take a day off..." he suddenly trailed off, lost in thought.

"What is it?" M'gan asked, seeing the concentrated look on her teammate's face made her wonder what the Boy Wonder was cooking up in there.

"It's just that," Robin began,"Think about it.  There are no major villains attacking, no jewelry heists, nothing.  No burglaries or anything.  What if the villains are planning some giant convention?  What if they are going to make all us superheroes restless and careless by not doing anything and then all of them, together turn around and strike?  It will be to much to handle!  They could take over the world!"

"Woah..." the whole team muttered in unison, he was such a genius.

"But, they would eventually turn on each other and their plan would fail." Robin finished,"What villain doesn't want to dominate the world by himself?  So we shouldn't do anything about it."

Artemis sighed then flopped back onto the couch,"So we basically have nothing to do?"

"Nope." Wally sadly said, he ran his fingers through his red hair and slowly closed his bright green eyes.

"It's not that bad." Kaldur said not believing himself.

"How is it not bad?" Connor jerked his black hair at Kaldur.

Kaldur shook his white hair,"I don't know, we will find a way though."

"Hopefully." M'gan said.

"Hopefully." Connor repeated.

"We could have a Disney movie marathon." Wally suggested, as a joke.

"Disney seriously Wally?" Artemis asked,"You seriously are a little kid."

Robin giggled, he loved a good argument, but that looked like it wasn't going to happen anytime soon.

"Yep!" Wally brightly replied,"Sheesh, it was a joke."
