You useless child! Do it again!...

I'm always with you mały wilk...

I'm so proud of the woman you are becoming...

Day one you will lead this school you and your siblings...

Hey Nina do you sometimes feel out of place? Like where you're meant to be isn't the same as where you are?

You are my daughter, my youngest, my savior. No matter what path you take, just know your family is in your corner.

"Hey. Blue Eyes. Wake up."

Artemis opens her eyes, groaning, but seeing through a hole in the roof, and on the edge of her vision, Kid Flash. Decked out in Stealth colors. Closing her eyes as she brings her hand to her head as she sits up. She's taken by surprise when KF is right in front of her. He smiles brightly, but she still scurries away. Grabbing her bow and moving until her back is to the wall.

"Hey, it's okay. It's okay. I won't hurt you. I'm one of the good guys." he says, finally standing up. "You know, Kid Flash."

"Widziałem Kid Flash w wiadomościach. Nie ubiera się na czarno." Artemis scrutinizes.

KF looks down confused, "Um... Come again?"

Artemis blinks and repeats in english with a slight polish accent, "Seen Kid Flash on the news. He doesn't wear black."

"Thank you..." KF looks down, just as confused as she is. "Uh, little unclear on that myself. What about you? Green Arrow fixation?" he chuckles at his own joke.

Artemis looks down, shock covering her eyes and showing in her posture. "Who put me in this!?"

KF's eyes go wide. "Wow. I am not touching that with a ten foot- uh, so you know how to use that bow?" he changes the subject.

"Yeah, my dad taught me..." she admits, the fear falls from her posture, only to be replaced by annoyance. "Dad! He must've done this. Kolejny z jego głupich testów." She started paces while thinking and subconsciously reached out to some animals, 'This better not be another test! I thought we were done with those!' She heard the call a hawk outside and it seemed to be warning her of something. She tried to listen but the boy was asking questions.

"Your dad? Why would he do something like this?" Kid Flash asks, curious.

"To either track down mutants, make friends or he probably wants me to kill you." She admits, completely nonchalant about the ideas, and slightly messing with him.

Kid Flash's eyes go wide, but both look up as an all-too-recognizable sound starts getting louder from right over their heads. He grabs Artemis' hand, pulling her out of the shack, both of them getting knocked down by the force of the explosion at their backs.

In the sand, three tanks are approaching. Led by a jeep armed with a machine-gun. "Mat khalee-homshee yih-raboo!" One shouts. The soldier fires the machine gun at their retreating forms.

'Don't let us escape? Well screw you!' Artemis looks over her shoulder before dropping into a roll on a diagonal, coming to a kneeling position with her bow aimed at the leading car. She releases the arrow, which impacts the ground below the front of the car, flipping it over both her and Kid Flash's heads before it lands and bounces two more times.

The speedster looks back to Artemis, seeing her hidden behind a small rock formation and firing at more of the Bialyan troops. He slides his goggles over his eyes before taking off.
