'Guess I'm a "loser" just like Wally. Does this kid always win?'

|Mount Justice|
|In the evening|

        "Nice try, Artemis." Spoke Robin, still in the same position as before. After a long and awkward pause of him still gripping her wrist in silence, he finally let go. Artemis rubbed her sore wrist, which throbbed from being held so tightly. However the look in her eyes burned with determination; she wasn't giving up just yet. She felt it was unfair how he knew almost everything about them, but she didn't know anything about him. What was Robin's secret?
'I will find out his identity.' Artemis thought intently.

Suddenly, fury washed over her. She stood up, and grabbed Robin by the collar taking him by surprise. He was shocked by her act of violence, Dick didn't realize she was that fussed up about finding his ID. At this point, the young acrobat decided he needed to play along for the time being.

Superboy noticed that Artemis grabbed Robin's collar, and stiffened a bit. Megan and Wally looked over from the kitchen, confused as hell. As shocked as he was, Robin wasn't threatened by this action; so he acted as nonchalantly as possible, just to piss her off.

And it worked. Her grip tightened, and her bottom lip began to tremble.

"We know nothing about you! But for some reason, you get to invade our lives and our privacy! Yet we don't even know your damn name!" the female archer announced angrily, her blood boiling. The others just stood distraught; staring at her. Robin let out a laugh, which echoed throughout the silence of the room. His laugh then got louder as the seconds passed by, bouncing off the jagged walls of the room. Then the team's eyes shot towards the young boy still in Artemis' tight grip. The blonde archer's eyes softened in confusion, her grip loosening.

        Eventually Robin was laughing so hard that he was gasping for air, his teammates' worried stares getting stronger. His adorable laugh was the only thing that was breaking the cold silence, and his friends were as still as a statue. Gradually his laugh slowed down, getting quieter in the process. After letting out a sigh, Robin finally retorted.

"Oh Artemis, but you do know my name. And that's surprising coming from your mouth; I never saw you as the hypocrite type." He then began to burst into hysterical laughter again, still in the archer's hold.

        That was it, Artemis had it. She pinned his body to the ground, and then reached for the glasses. She struggled considering Robin wasn't necessarily weak; at all. So the two fought on the floor... Artemis reaching to grab him, and Robin just swiftly rolling away. Superboy just left the room, Wally continued to eat, and Megan tried to break it up. Artemis finally got on top of him, pinning him down with one arm, and reaching for his sunglasses with the other. Her hand was smacked out of the way, and then she was shoved across the floor. Megan was extremely worried, and called Batman on her com. All she got was a grunt, but she assumed he got the idea and was on his way to Mount Justice.

        Artemis used her strength to pin the younger boy down again, her hand gripping his shirt. She then successfully pried off the black sunglasses...

        He had his mask on underneath.

        Artemis groaned in frustration, and Robin smirked. "I know your motives before you even have time to act them out."

        Artemis began to try to take off the mask now, and the two were once again pinning eachother down, back and forth. The duo froze, when they saw Batman and Green Arrow standing by the doorframe, their arms crossed. Robin was stuck against the back of the couch, the female archer's arms holding his shoulders. She was awkwardly on top of him, and Megan was standing behind them. Wally was eating a family-sized bag of Doritos, amused by the two heroes wrestling. However to the two older vigilantes, it looked like something else.

        "Awkward...." Wally spoke, breaking the silence.
