Robin POV

      I really wanted to test my theory. So one thing I did was to ask Batman for permission to reveal who I am to the team.

I might have followed him around for hours sprouting reasons to trust them with our identity...

He approved.... FINALLY!

Anyway, I asked the team to meet me in the main area of the mountain. Soon, all of us were lazing around on the couch and/ or lying on the floor. I for one hand my legs on the couch and my back on the floor.

" Ok. I have a theory that I want to test out. So to do it, I'll need all of us to allow M'gann to go into our minds and help us see if we have any hidden memories that would be triggered by the things we do." I said.

" Wait. Some of us actually want to have privacy in our minds. Also, wouldn't that compromise your secret identity?" Artemis said.

" Well, this is to ensure that nothing would be triggered in combat, which would be bad. Also why I got permission to tell you who I am." I said, while reaching up to take off my sunglasses. I blinked a few time before smirked and waving.

" Hi, I'm Richard Grayson but you can call me Dick."

Artemis, who was drinking water, spat said water out. She glared at me. " Don't you go to my school you little troll?!"

I cackled " I told you we'll laugh about this someday." She continued glaring. Party pooper.

" Anyway, now that that is out of the way, would you guys be okay with this?" They mumble a few responses. " Wonderful." I said, clapping my hands together. " Now, M'gann, if you will."

M'gann's eyes flowed green like it did when she used her powers. I felt something nudge my mind before everything went black.

Mind

Now this is just weird. I am staring at a weird looking black place with fragments of flashing things. I floated over to one and poked it. Immediate, it expanded into a screen-like thing that showed the day Wally, Kaldur and I broke into Cadmus.

Turning around, I saw a white light zipping around, like it was trying to get my attention. I approached it. As I neared it, I suddenly zipped to the left. I followed it since I had nothing better to do.

Soon, the fragments that contained what I assumed was memories, faded behind me. Now I was just following a while ball of light through a black space. Suddenly a bright light engulfed me and I opened my eyes to see the inside of an apartment.

I walked to the window on what seemed like a floor. Outside, it was like everything was frozen in time. I felt a slight rumble in the ground as an army of what I personally classify as monsters marched from my left hand side. The Battle of Manhattan, I thought. Wait... where did that come from?

I abandoned the window and ran down a hallway what had a blue door along it. It seem to call to me. So I opened it and entered. However, I did not enter a room. I walked out to see the base of a hill. I jogged up the hill to see to my right, a big house that was painted light blue. Below me was some sort of a summer camp. Twelve cabins in a U-shape, a collection of smaller cabins nestled at the edge of a forest, a campfire, and amphitheater... is that a climbing wall with lava coming down?

It looked deserted.

I walked through the place. As I was passing the campfire, ghostly figures of people sitting at it, laughing and talking appeared and were seemingly frozen in time. I heard their faint laughter. Around me, more ghostly figures appeared, doing various things.

I was teenagers trying to climb the climbing wall. Actually come to think of it, many of these people were no older than twenty five. Some even as young as five.

I also heard their faint conversations. Everything changed abruptly as the sky turned from blue to red. The ghostly people disappeared and all noise faded except the sound of the wind.

The cabins turned black. In front of me was twelve figures with hoods and various weapons on their back. They looked kind of creepy in and awing way. I opened the door of the cabin nearest to me, which had a sea green trident on it and slipped in.

I shut the door and turned around. I saw a beautiful garden. Didn't I see this garden in one of my dreams?

As I walked around, memory fragments appeared around me. One in particular that was blinking multicolored from somewhere behind the leaves of a weeping willow that was beside a lake.

I pushed aside the curtain of leaves. I saw the diamond shaped fragment on top a branch. After climbing the trunk of the willow, I stared at it. Tentatively, I reached out and touched it.

The second I made contact with it, I felt a tingling feeling go through me and gasped. It was like a piece of me that I had been unknowingly missing suddenly return to me, filling up empty holes in my mind. Memories washed over me in waves. I saw fighting, a few faces and finally a smiling face of a boy with blond hair and sky blue eyes.

Who was he? I had to know!

Luke...

Luke...

Luke...

LUKE CASTELLAN!

And I was Percy Jackson!

Mind part end

I remembered hearing some others crying out different names. I just knew that my eyes shot open as I gasped out one word.

" Luke!!"
