"No! No way! This is not happening!" Alexis exclaimed with a glare on her face

"No! No way! This is not happening!" Alexis exclaimed with a glare on her face. "I thought I was working with him, not under him!"

"Wait..WHAT?!" The guy, in which Alexis went nuts over, Nightwing, asked as he looked towards Batman.

"What do you mean 'working with him'?" He asked as Batman sighed and looked from Alexis to him. "You two will be working together. Not as leader to teammate, but as teammate to teammate."

"Not happening."

"See? This is one of the reasons why I don't like this dude! He's a total dick!" She shouted as she glared towards the three Leaguers.

"And this is why I don't like her because she's an asshole herself!"

"Hey, I'd rather be an asshole than a miserable little puppy that follows people around!"

"Hey! Hey!" Green Arrow shouted as he got between the two. "Now, whatever grudge you have against each other, it ends now. You two have to work together to make this team work. Bad enough it's falling apart with most of the team gone. We don't need it to fall apart anymore than it is! Got it?"

"Whatever." "Yeah, sure." They both once again said at the same time before Nightwing crossed his arms.

"Batman, can I speak to you alone, please?" Nightwing asked as Batman approached him and they both walked away.

"What's going on between you and Nightwing?" Black Canary said as Alexis glared in the direction he went in.

"Let's just say, I saved his life and the team's lives once and he instead cursed me out for not being careful and me being reckless. I never got a thank you, or a 'you saved our lives'. Nope. I got a 'You should have been more careful. That was so reckless. This is why we can't have someone like you on the team'. So, we had the grudge ever since." Alexis explained as she glared down at her feet.

"What happened?" Green Arrow asked as Alexis closed her eyes and began to tell the story.

Alexis hadn't heard from Robin

Alexis hadn't heard from Robin. She normally heard from him when he got to the mountain. But this time was different. This time, it was nearly 5 o clock and he told her he leaves school at 2. Something was wrong, she could feel it.

But her fears were confirmed when she got a text from Robin. It said that the mountain was under attack and that his friends were being held as captives under two robots that looked a lot like Red Tornado, one of the Justice Leaguers. So Alexis took her bike and she rode from her home to the bus station to take the bus to Happy Harbor.

When she got to Happy Harbor, which didn't take no more than 2 hours, she continuously called Robin to see if he would answer, but the line had dead after the 6th call. Something was definitely wrong. Robin's line would never go dead out of nowhere.

Alexis cycled as fast as she could to the mountain and had entered it the moment she got closer to the entrance of the mountain.

The room was dark, so she could barely see anyone. She walked further and further inward but it still was pitch black.

"Rob?" Alexis called as she walked deeper and deeper into the darkness.

Intruder Alert! Unauthorized personnel has entered the premises!

"Huh?" Alexis looked around and a red light had turned on and two robots were standing in front of her. "What is this?"

"It's a revolution, child. And you're going to watch it happen." The female robot said before she sprayed fire at her. Alexis whipped off her gloves quickly while rolling over to the side.

"What the hell?!"

Alexis used her powers and countered the female's powers. It was crazy how powerful her powers were being that she was a robot.

Before she could do anything else, the male had used his powers and a wave  came at her. She got so scared that she quickly used her other hand to counter his powers.

Alexis could feel her strength dissipate quickly and slowly began to fall to her knees. "I...I can't...can't.."

"Give it up, child." The female one said as Alexis looked at her.

"Hey!" They heard as Alexis looked up and soon saw two arrows shoot and hit both of the robots and exploding. "Come on! Come on!"

Alexis used her powers and made a stairway up to the vents before retracting it. "Alexis?"

"A-Artemis?" Alexis asked as she turned to see her friend, Artemis, in her hero suit. "What are you doing here?"

"Robin didn't call me when he got here. I waited three hours. I knew something was wrong, so I came all the way here to see what was up. And clearly, that's what's up." Alexis said, referring to the two robots. "What happened?"

"I don't know. Robin and I just Zetatubed here and then we got attacked by them." Artemis said as Alexis shook her head. "This is crazy. This is crazy!"
-

Alexis didn't remember much after that. But she did remember that Artemis and herself had talked about an EMP that was connected to the entire cave. It would send it throughout the entire mountain. It was a risk. But she did what she felt was right. But she couldn't say that everyone agreed to it.

"Are you crazy?" Robin shouted as soon as Alexis recovered

"Are you crazy?" Robin shouted as soon as Alexis recovered. Alexis furrowed her eyebrows.

"Excuse me?"

"You heard me! That was nuts!" Robin scowled as he glared at me. "You could've been killed!"

"Robin, I saved your lives! You should be thanking me!" Alexis shouted as she began to feel offended. "Yeah, but you nearly killed yourself in the process!"

"Hey, Rob. Calm dow-" Kid Flash began as Robin turned to him.

"Calm down? You want me to calm down?! I can't calm down! We nearly died because you weren't careful, Alexis!" Robin shouted before looking at Alexis. Alexis' eyes were wide and filled with shock, disbelief, and offense before she shook her head and ran out of the mountain. But not before leaving behind large icicles behind in the same spot she stood.

"After that, I hated him ever since. I always wondered why he was such a dick, but it doesn't matter because I'm starting to take a little control over my powers and I'm being more considerate about my choices."  Alexis finished as she looked between Black Canary and Green Arrow.

"Did you think maybe it was because he liked you or something?" Green Arrow asked as Alexis furrowed her eyebrows.

"No, not really. I mean, we were kids. There was no way we would have been catching feelings that fast." Alexis denied, though in the back of her mind, she knew it was a possibility. But she didn't want to think about it like that. She was here to catch feelings. She was here to find her father.
