Always Traught Part II

Minnie Mouse is Dead

Dick had been to Disney Land many times. He knew the names of all the parks, had been on all the rides, and had most of the ears. It was safe to say that he was a big fan. Artemis, on the other hand, had never be to the happiest place on earth. She grew up poor and Sportsmaster wasn't one for cartoons. And for a long time, the only Disney movie she had watched was Alice In Wonderland. Dick, being the wonderful boyfriend he was, had to show her all things Walt Disney. That included the famous park.

It started with watching all of their favorites. (More like his favorites, but who cares?) First, they watched Alice in Wonderland. Then, the two heroes watched Peter Pan. After that was Dumbo, which made Dick cry. The Lion King came next. That both made them cry. But when the film finished, Dick broke the news and told her that they were going to Disney. Artemis response was, "HE KILLED HIS BROTHER, DICK! WHY DON'T YOU CARE!?" He just laughed at her.

"So we met Belle, Cinderella, Alice, the Mad Hatter, and Daisy Duck. I've said we've made good process. But if we don't meet Mickey and Minnie, I'll be distraught. Heavy on the dis," Dick said as he stared at the map in his hands. When Artemis didn't say anything, the brunet lifted his head up and looked around, "Artemis?"

After a few moments his girlfriend walked up behind him. She wiped her mouth as she swayed on her feet, "I'm going to throw up."

"You free fall from buildings all the time and a roller coaster makes you throw up?" Dick scoffed as he steadied her still, "Thats dignifying," He flicked her Minnie Mouse ears back in place.

Artemis immediately glared at him, "We've gone on at least
twenty rides today. Sorry if I feel nauseous. And sorry if I decide to puke on you."

"You know what? Wouldn't be the first time," Dick stuck his tongue out at her, "And luckily for you, we're not going on a ride. We're going to meet Mickey and Minnie," He flashed her grin before he grabbed her and started to give her a piggyback. Artemis had to swallow the vomit that threaten to come out.

"Don't do that!" She scolded him. He just rolled his blue eyes and started to walk.

After a few minutes they made their way to the two famous mice. The line was long, which caused a few grumbles from the blonde. Dick insisted that it was worth it, however. That wasn't enough to convince her, so he promised her churros. The snack sealed the deal and they began to wait.

When they were next up in line, Dick almost squealed and held onto one of the archer's arm. Artemis just shook her head. All she could think about was how she had fallen for a child. The man arrested criminals everyday. You would think he would have some maturity.

"You're up next, friends!" The photographer smiled as she waved Dick and Artemis forward. Artemis handed the girl her phone and the couple got into position. Dick and Artemis stood in between Mickey and Minnie. Mickey was to Dick's right and Minnie was to Artemis's left.

The worker took three pictures, but in between the second and third, Artemis yelped and jumped away from the group. Dick frowned, "What's wrong?"

"Minnie groped me!" Artemis yelled as she pointed an accusing finger at the mouse. Minnie shrugged like she didn't know what the archer was talking about. All of the parents in the line seemed to pay attention.

"Babe, are you sure?" The bird questioned.

"Yes!" Artemis snatched her phone from the photographer and found the second picture. She looked at it for a second before she shoved it in her boyfriend's face, "Look!" Dick's eyes widened when he saw it. Minnie has indeed groped the heroine.

Mickey stepped away from the situation as the worker came forward to look at the picture. Her mouth opened up in an 'O' shape. And to escalate the situation, a mother from the crowd declared, "I saw her do it!"

"Me too!" A dad pitched in. Dick was too stunned to react, but Artemis certainly wasn't. She tightly wrapped her fingers around her phone and chucked it at Minnie's head.

A bunch of screams erupted when the costume's head popped off, reviling the girl underneath. Artemis really didn't care who's childhood she had just destroyed. She was out for blood. The archer went to lunge at the worker but Dick caught her, "Minnie Mouse is dead!" She yelled as wiggled from her boyfriend's hold.

"Babe, calm down! We'll handle this the right way!" The raven tried to sooth the young woman down.

The photographer from earlier walked up to the couple and asked. "Should I call security?"

"You should call your boss," Dick sighed as he continued to hold the goddess.

Artemis grumbled to herself as the two heroes walked out of a office. After the whole situation with Minnie, Artemis and Dick had been escorted to talk to a manger. It was uneventful and the manger was more concerned about the "magic" that was ruined.

The blonde spun on her heels to look at the raven, "That was so unfair! We had the photo and witnesses. Who the hell cares if some kids knew Minnie Mouse wasn't real!?"

"I know, Babe," Dick sighed as he rubbed his temples. He never thought he'd see the day where he got tired of Disney Land. Today certainly was that day. He wanted to strangle that manger.

"She assaulted me and that's all they care about? It's not fair," She muttered under her breath, but Dick still heard her. He immediately frowned and placed an arm around her shoulders.

"You okay?"

"Yeah," She breathed, "It could've been worse, but how many other girls has this chick hurt? If she's done it once, she'll do it again. Or she's done it before."

Dick nodded, "You're right. That's why we're going to fine someone else who can help us ... And get you churros."

"I don't want to give Disney another buck. This is the happiest place on earth and I'm still depressed," She rolled her steel colored eyes. Dick snorted at her joke.

"Y'know, I was trying to be a good boyfriend."

She gently poked the side of face as she teased him, "You are, but you can make it up with chocolate."

Dick scoffed as he kissed her forehead, "Of course."

"Let's go find someone to help us, Grayson."

A/N: I really liked writing Traught one shots, so here's a second collection. :) This one won't have as many frequent updates as the first one, but I hope you still enjoy.
