The group of teens is standing next to Jonathan's bed in his room. The Daughter of Flash and Frost looked at the pile of junk and clothes that were spread all over his bed and room. She wrinkled her nose in distaste. They all watched as two tan feet popped out from underneath the covers.

"So, what is it today?" Natalie asked.
"Does he get the mace, the Trident, the lightning, or the ice?"

Henry and Lucy glanced at each other mischievously and grinned.

"It's his Royal Highness turn." They replied in unison.

"I hate you both." The 19-year-old Atlantean grumbled as he walked over to the bed. Arthur's tattoos glowed blue as he lifted his Trident and pointed it directly at Jonathan which released a blast of water. Jonathan's eyes glowed red and he leaps out of bed. Arthur felt a stab of pain in his gut before he was launched through the window and onto the beach outside.

Natalie, Henry, Damian, Aaliyah, and Lucy jumped off the balcony and went to go help out Arthur. The 21-year-old Jonathan Kent stepped out onto the balcony. He rubbed his head and opened his eyes to see who it was he had hit.

"If you jackasses are all done bothering me, I'm going back to bed."

"Who are you calling a jackass, Jackass?" gawked Henry as he transformed into Snowstorm.

Johnathan let out a sigh. "That would be you, Jack Frost." He drops down on the ground.

"Cool superhero landing," Lucy comments.

Snowstorm leaped forward into the air and constructs Mjolnir out of ice. The weapon breaks on impact as he strikes Jonathan with all his might.

"That all you got?" Jonathan said smirking. He then uses his super-breath and blows sand in Snowstorm's face. He stumbles and falls on his face. Snowstorm transforms back into Henry.

"Well, that was embarrassing," Henry said and spits out sand.

Jonathan smiled smugly. "Now can I sleep?"

"What the hell is your problem, Jonathan?!" Arthur shouted. "You've been sleeping all day, missing training, blowing off your chores..."

"Which my brother and I have to do by the way," Natalie added.

"And generally being a real pain in the ass!" Arthur concluded.

"Who cares?" Jonathan replied. "What am I gonna miss, laundry day? So what if we don't do the chores and train? For what? Seriously, nothing's ever gonna happen in this place! You can act like a king, Terry and Lucy can play the superhero, Natalie can run around all she wants and Henry can follow like a lost puppy, and Aaliyah can live in fantasy land and talk to her parents all she wants. So what's the point?!"

"The point is not to be such an ass!" Aaliyah yelled at him.

"Oh right, there's no point for us because our parents are dead. Your parents just abandoned you, it's not like there's still hope."

"My parents may have left me for whatever reason."  Aaliyah said quietly, "But at least I acknowledge them! Unlike you who decides to play off not having parents as nothing more than a simple matter!"
