Pandora~ A Young Justice Fanfiction

Happy New Year

• I picture Persephone's suit looking something like the picture above. Yes it's unused concept art for Age of Ultron so obviously I didn't create it Marvel did. So it doesn't belong to me I just thought it looked cool.

Persephone's POV

I fly in beside Blue Beetle my pisonic energy encircling my body until I land back on the ground safely. "Since when can you fly?" Blue asks me, and I give him a playful smirk while lifting my hands shooting a few hexes at Clayface solidifying him a little more. Don't want him to escape.

"Since Zatanna taught me to telekinetically adjust and move my molecules, so I don't think it's actually flying." I shrug adjusting the red headband holding my hair back. "Well it looks like flying so let's just call it flying." Garfield chuckles still trudging through the sewer sludge much to my distaste.

"Very impressive, whatever you're calling it." I look behind me to find a smirking Robin, and I jog over to him ignoring the wet spots on the ground. "Thank you, if you're impressed I'm obviously doing something right."

"You're hilarious, now let's head back to the cave." He deadpans his domino mask crinkling as his eyes squint. "What's the rush are you hoping to meet up with a certain Wonder..."

"Would you stop it, the last thing I need is the team spreading rumors." He whispers as we follow Superboy and Miss. Martain out of the sewer and away from the wretched smell. "It's not a rumor if it's true, it's a fact." I respond cheekily batting my eyes innocently much to his amusement.

"Well you need evidence for it to be a fact."

Anastasia's POV

"You would've had him if you would cut your corners a little sharper." I chuckle helping La'gaann up off the floor after Dick just slammed him down. He sighs but still nods going to shake Dick's hand who is still cockily smirking. "Do I personally need to wipe to smirk off your face?"

"Would your fiance appreciate that?"He asks sweetly, but I ignore him going to greet the Delta team as they exit the zeta-tubes.

"Ana!" Persephone cheers sprinting to me pulling me into a bone crushing hug. I try to return it, but she pulls back just as quickly setting me with a inquisitive stare. "What are you doing here? You told yourself you wouldn't come to the cave for awhile so you could get caught up on homework."

Inwardly I groan because of course she would remember that, and when I said it I thought it would be easier than it actually is. Staying away from this place. Walking away was easy, but it's almost been a year and my everyday life is starting to wear on me. Now my bodies craving for action, more than just training, and I'm realizing staying away is the hardest part.

"Well I needed to come check on you." I add cheerily forcing myself to give her a smile even though I know she'll see right through it as if I were glass. Her red eyes inspect me carefully like I knew they would, and before she can saying anything I change the subject to her.

"How's your training? No more nightmares right?" I ask whispering the last part looking over at Dick and Tim to see they're engrossed in their own conversation. "Good I'm getting better everyday..." But she doesn't sound thrilled, and I know she's worried that with experience she'll become more dangerous. I just wish she could understand it's the opposite.

"And the nightmares... They come and go." She whispers meekly down casting her eyes so her bleached hair falls hiding her face. "Maybe coming and staying with Wally and I for awhile would help." I've offered before but I've never been able to get her to take the offer, and based on her hesitant attitude I don't think today will be the day.
