Young Justice: The Musical!

Once Upon a Dream

Conner reunites with someone special...someone he met "Once Upon a Dream"  I do not own YJ, DC, or Sleeping Beauty.

Conner examined the wheel. "Yep. Its busted." Katie crossed her arms and frowned at Chris. "I told you we should've stopped asked for directions!" Chris groaned as he got out of the coach. "Here. Lemme have a look at it." Conner stepped aside and let him kneel down to get a good look at the wheel that had been busted by a pothole.

Conner sat next to Katie in the carriage. "Are you sure you don't wanna hear about my dream last night?" Katie shook her head furiously. "If you do, it won't come true. And remember what I said..."

A dream is a wish—

He put his hand over her mouth. "Yeah, yeah! We got the message the first time." He sighed. "But I'm just gonna burst if I don't tell someone. I'm in a forest, just like this one. Then, while I'm walking around, the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen emerges from the trees." He stared off into space. "She has skin as green as emeralds, eyes as golden-brown as pure honey, and hair as fiery red as the setting sun. Something about her seems so familiar." Katie bit her lip. "We dance through the forest, and nothing else matters but the two of us. Just before we go our separate ways, I take her in my arms, and then..." She leaned in. "And then..." She smiled a little. "And then..." She bobbed her head up and down. "Yes? Yes? Yes?!"

Conner sighed. "And then I woke up." Her face fell. "Oh." Conner got out of the carriage. "I think I'll take a walk." She watched him go, a new hope igniting inside her. He couldn't remember her exactly, but M'gann was in his dreams. That meant his memories had to be buried somewhere deep within his subconscious. They just had to find out how to retrieve them.

M'gann flew through the trees, searching for Superboy's presence. Conner? Conner? If you can hear me, please answer! Finally, exhausted and downtrodden, she sat on a tree stump and burked her face in her hands. What if we never find him?, she thought. What if I never see Conner again? The very thought made her cry. Suddenly, she heard a deep voice off in the distance. She stood up and followed it down.

Conner waled through the forest, singing as he thought about his dream.

I know you,
I walked with you once upon a dream.
I know you,
The gleam in your eye is so familiar a gleam.
And I know its true
That visions are seldom what they seem.
But if I know you,
I'll know what you'll do.
You'll love me at once
The way you did once
Upon a dream.

He sang out more, not noticing a certain Martian peeking out from behind the bushes, smiling.

La la, la la, la la la la,
La, la la, la la!

He closed his eyes as he spun around and spread his arms out.

But if I know you,
I know what you'll do,
You'll love me at once,
The way you did once
Upon a dream!

His eyes flew open and he looked down. Pressing her back to his chest was a beautiful young woman. She had smooth skin as green as emeralds, glittering eyes as golden-brown as pure honey, and short cropped hair as fiery red as the setting sun. She smiled up at him with love and longing. "Hello, Conner. I missed you."

He stepped away from her, trying to be cautious. "Who are you? And how do you know my name?" Her hopeful smile faded. "You don't recognize me?" Conner shook his head furiously. She fought back the urge to cry. "Its me! M'gann!" He furrowed his brow. "M'gann? What kinda name is that?" He shook his head. "Sorry, but you must have me confused with some other guy. We've never met before."

M'gann ran over and put her hand on his arm. "But we have!" He quirked an eyebrow. "Really? Where?" She smiled at him. "You said so yourself. Once upon a dream."

I know you,
I walked with you once upon a dream.
I know you,
The gleam in your eye is so familiar a gleam.

Eventually, the warmth and love in the words she sang broke down his barriers. He held out his hand and allowed her to curl her fingers around his. He pulled her a few feet away, leading her into a lighter, more free-spirited waltz.

And I
Know its true
That visions are seldom what they seem.
But if I know you,
I know what you'll do.
You'll love me at once
The way you did once
Upon a drrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaamm.

They came over to a tree and leaned on it, hands still together, watching the sun set as they touched heads. "Hey, can I ask you something?", he said. She looked up at him, hope shining in her eyes. "Yes?" He smirked. "What's your name again?" Her face fell. She groaned as she put her hands over her face.

Happy Fourth of July!
