Hatred Never Looked This Good (Young Justice) [1/3]

Author's Note: Thank You!

I just want to thank all those who have my story in their library, anyone who has read the whole thing or only read one chapter! I'm glad you enjoyed it because I enjoy writing it. It also gives me a reason to watch Young Justice. Research!

Sooooo... I'm working on Book Two! It takes place during Invasion. Here's a sneak peek at the cover and an excerpt from one of the chapters.

He entered the room and my heart sank. It had only been a month or so but Kaldur looked older. His hair was cut differently and he wore an all black suit like his father's--and scowled. Sweet, caring Kaldur never scowled. I don't know what I was expecting to come through that door but he wasn't it.

He abruptly stopped in the doorway as he saw me and looked at Manta warily.

"Pyrrha." My name sounded so hollow from him and his light green eyes attempted to bore a hole through me. "I was not expecting you."

"She's here to see--"

"If I'm a double agent," he finished. My skin glowed slightly from my irritation. Once again, Kaldur could see right through me. "It's fine, Pyrrha. I would do the same thing."

"Well, I have other engagements so if you'll excuse me." I stood up from the table. "I look forward to working closely with the both of you." I grabbed my helmet as Kaldur'ahm held the door.

"I'll walk you out," he offered. I smiled politely and followed him to the top hatch of the ship. He held his hand out in front of me to stop me before I stepped onto the ladder, disregarding our stations in the Light.

"I'd like to talk to you. Without my father around."

"Oh? Must be serious," I mocked.

"I suggest you rethink your conspiracy theory about me. I'd hate for you to be embarrassed over your paranoia."

"You suggest? That's laughable." I felt my heat build. "I've fought next to you, Tats. Spent downtime with you. I know you from the top of your blonde head to your webbed toes. I know you don't belong here."

"After everything I've been through," he said with a scowl but I could hear his pain, "I assumed you would understand."

"I do understand--that we are all selfish, power-hungry murderers and monsters. You, my adorable friend, are not anything like us. I don't buy for one second that Tula's death was your catalyst."

"And I am supposed to believe you are the monster you claim? You aren't as dark and ruthless as you want them to believe. You saved me from that explosion when you could've let it kill me. I know Starling is inside of you somewhere. Check on me all you want. I am not the one with something to hide."

"Oh, Aqualad," I taunted him as I closed the space between us. "There's a reason I have my own screen. I killed off any surviving bit of Jet Starling some time ago. So I suggest you watch how you speak to me. You answer to me now."
