Young Justice Article: Lies One-shot

posted by MercyYJ

((OOC)) Okay, I got REALLY bored so i started this on my iPad, and i ended up finishing it 5 minuti ago.. (I have no life) So, yeah... this might explain a few things about Mercy....

I guess te could say my life was completely and utterly over. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place; with nowhere to go. Jacob had practically forced me to betray my team, my best friends. If I refused, he was going to kill them. If I told them, he would kill them, and then me. Probably, if I told them anyways, they would say that they could take him. They would say that they would take him down. But they can't. They could never defeat him. No one can, and no one will.
So sitting here, in this room filled with some of the worst villains and convicts in teenage history, my life is practically over. Heather, who happens to be sitting successivo to me at the current moment gives me a sharp jab into my ribs. "Merc! Pay attention!" she hissed. Of course that jab made me lose my focus even more, because of the recente fracturing of 2 ribs maybe just a week ago.
"Heather? What are we doing here anyways? We don't belong here! I'm a some-what hero and te are a solo ....uh.... Delinquent! What are we doing here?" I bit my lip, thats what I do whenever I'm nervous. Heather just smirked and slunk back into her seat. "I'm here to keep te out of trouble, dumb-butt!" of course, I knew that wasn't true. She had been eying and flirting with a bunch of the guys here. "Hea- Viper... Why does Jacob have us here? Do te know if he's planning something bigger than just stealing information and blueprints?" Heather just frowned and glanced at Jacob, "If I know anything about my brother, it's that he always has something up his sleeve."
There was a moment of silence between the both of us. The silence, though, was quickly broken when Jacob stood up with a jolt, "Listen!" his face was red and anger flared in his eyes at the old man staring at him in fear successivo to him, "This is MY operation, and te will do what I say!" his eyes started to glow a dim green. This wasn't looking good. Whenever Jake got mad, he meant it. The small man, probably in his 50's started to beg him, "o-okay! Forget my idea! We-We'll do it yo-" before he could even Finnish he flew back into the wall, groaning and whimpering in fear. I had to do something. Jacob smirked and started to walk back over to the small man. Heather was going to kill me for this, but on instinct I ran over and grabbed Jake's arm just as he raised it to do who knows what. "Jacob David Till!" I scolded him. He just glared at me. "Please, leave the poor guy alone!" I attempted to give a small reassuring smile to the man on the ground, whose associates seemed to be helping him up now. "Bella, te shut up right now." Jacob detto with a slightly calmer tone. Before I could say anything più he lifted a glowing blade and swiped at my left cheek, which obviously sent me taking a few steps back clutching my burning cheek.
Heather rushed over to me, sending a death glare to Jacob in the process. "Com'on Mercy, let's get te home." she gently put her hand on my shoulder. I just stood there, stunned. Slowly but surely, she started to guide me out, step da step.

Once we finally got outside she spoke. "Sorry he did that to ya." She mumbled with her head focused on the sidewalk. "I've handled worse. But what am I going to tell the team?" I managed to whisper to her. "Tell them that te got into a little argument. Blame it on me, if te have to." She tried to make it sound as if it was that simple. But it wasn't. Lying to your Friends on a daily basis to cover up something that was saving their lives wasn't that simple.
Finally reaching my new apartment, one floor down from Heathers, I was starting to close the door. "Heather, this is a really stupid question, but can te come and find me tomorrow, and give me an update on how that man is doing? I know he's an international drug dealer and all that fun stuff, but just find out how he is?" Heather attempted a smile, "No problem, Merc." I smiled an closed the door with a sigh. Another long day. Quickly I changed from my Nova outfit back to being Mercy. Now all that was left on my to-do lista was that I had to find the team and see how their giorno was. Great....

"Chatting with the inferiors?"

It was thirty minuti until midnight, but none of us were close to sleeping. There was still no sign of Darkseid, and the city had gone into hiding.
I shivered in my sweater. I didn't like the idea of being in a graveyard at night. I stood successivo to Superman, who was staring at the sky.
"Who's Darkseid?" I asked, forgetting that I wasn't on speaking terms with him.
He sighed, looking at me now. "Darkseid is the ruler of the planet, Apokolips. Apokolips is the worst place to be in, secondo only to Hell." His gaze lingered to Jenny's grave.
"And so he wants Jenny's powers?" I pressed.
He nodded....

“Your tough chica, but Bane is tougher! I was sent to face the justice league. I was trained to face Super Man!” Bane gloated
“I’ll just have to get creative then” I said, flying high. I spiraled down at some what astonishing speeds and bashed Bane. I could hear the team struggling with the bombs. It was already 11:45. I kept attacking Bane, trying to get all my anger and sorrow out. This was the Bane that took my mother from me!. I kept smashing until he pulled me to the ground and kept me down, punching me. 11:58.
”Wait! I’ll make a deal!” I detto as he raised his arm to strike...

“What do te think you’re doing?” Batman asked
“Uh, I uh we…” I started
“Wait, we? Oh, now I know what te were doing” Batman smiled
“You do?” Robin asked
“Yes, and I’m sorry I ruined your alone time” Batman said. “Ah, young love”
“Woah, whoa, whoa! Love?!” My whole face turned red. I looked at Robin and his face was the shade of a cherry.
“Listen, Bat’s we weren’t having alone time. I was trying to find out what te were doing and he followed me!” I explained
“Mhm. Yeah, right” Batman walked away “Anyways, I have a mission for you. I was about to ring...

I walked into the lounge to find a huge albero set up. When I say huge I mean the tip is shadowed da the ceiling. Megan Alex and Connor were starting to decorate. I grabbed a grappling hook and shot it into the rafters. Megan was telekinetically keeping a box of decorations up with her and Alex while Connor and Bat’s had their own box on the floor with them. Alex saw me and smiled.
“Wow. First smile I’ve gotten in a long time” I commented
“Tomorrow’s Christmas. I thought it was time to cheer up. Like my mother used to say: Remember your past, look to the future but live the present”...

Three weeks later…
I opened my eyes and looked at my calendar. It was December 24. Natale Eve. It was also the three week anniversary of my mother’s death and the week anniversary of her funeral. I sighed and felt the locket on my neck. Today, it would gain two più pictures. I changed into a red superiore, in alto with some nice jeans and some converse. I slipped on my green hoodie and flew out the door. They were all specially made for my wings. I flew into the lounge and saw I was the secondo one up. Batman was there too. I flew over to him.
“Hey Batman! Ready to set up the tree?” I asked cheerfully....

"Umm, a big power drill that fell into a hole?"

KF patted my back. "Don't be so hard on yourself. It was your first mission after three years."
"But I was so sure that was an Earthbender!" I exclaimed. "I mean, what else could make the ground shake?"
"Umm, a big power drill that fell into a hole?" He smiled encouragingly.
I glared at him, then looked at the computer screen. "Where's Robin?"
He shrugged. "Batman detto he was heading to base, so he's heading here."
I spun around in the revolving chair. "Go home, Wally. te don't have to stay with me."
"Are te sure?"
I nodded. "Thanks, anyway." The silence that followed after he left was life-threatening....

“Now stir until the batter is nice and gooey”

“Remind me why we’re learning how to bake?” I asked Megan as we all put flour into our bowls.
“Because te detto if te taught me how to play Call of Duty, te would let me teach te something. So, here we are!” Megan finished with a sunny smile. “Now stir until the batter is nice and gooey”
“I never thought I’d see the giorno when Robin was in a fiore apron!” Alex teased me. Artemis and Megan laughed while the guys smiled. I started to stir. I wasn’t paying attention, so when I looked down, my batter was too watery. Alex saw and looked at me with pity.
“Hey Megan! I think...

“Robin. te may want to sit” Batman suggested. Robin sat on the end of my bed.
“Robin, before you, there has been two other Robin’s. The first one turned into Night Wing, and the second, Jason Todd, was killed, brought back to life, then turned into Red Hood” Batman explained. Robin looked pale. I wasn’t sure of the proper protocol. Do I comfort him, do I stay away? What would Shayera do? She would comfort him. I reached over and placed my hand on his shoulder to offer comfort. And he turned on me and hugged me. My eyes widened in surprise. I hugged him back, un sure why he was hugging...

After we finished building our amazing fort, we started making snowballs. I made ten, Artemis made eighteen and Megan made forty-two. Together we had 60 snowballs.
“Okay girls. The enemy is larger than us and may out arm us. But we have the stronger defense. And like my coach used to say: A great offense is nothing without good defense” I encouraged
“Okay, but how do we beat them?” Artemis asked
“You think te can shoot snowballs with your bow?” I asked
“Yeah, why?” she nodded
“Well y-Please Megan, link us up right now” I detto
‘What was that about?’ Megan asked mentally
‘We...

KidFlashes POV
Okay. Robing totally has a crush on Lily. Even Megan detto it would be "cute". I think he should go for it. But he's got no confidence. Not as a cool as me. Not as frullato, smoothie with the ladies. Ya know?
Yeah. Like the other day. We were in the team loungue room type thing room and I told him he should totally invite her for pizza but when I him an encougaging shove toward he totally babbled. Poor guy.

I gasped as Robin fell to the floor, fifty feet away. I colomba after him, determinded not to let him hit the ground. I reached my hand out and grabbed his arm, careful not to yank it to hard. I slowed his speed, and then lightly placed him on the ground. He opened one eye and finally realized he didn’t splat. He quickly got up and dusted himself off. I started to walk away.
“Alex?” he called. I turned but didn’t answer.
“I’m sorry, ok?” he smiled. I kept my face expressionless, nodded and went back to the lounge. I closed my eyes and looked at the doors to my mind. They were shining...

"What's wrong, Erica?"

I slammed my fist on the desk. "It just doesn't make sense!"
Megan looked at me serenly. "What's wrong, Erica?"
I tucked a few strands of my hair behind my ears. "The fact that for one entire year, I haven't been able to find the successivo Avatar."
Suddenly, the mission campana, bell rang. Megan floated in the air. "Wanna come?"
I sighed. "Sure." I followed her to the Mission room, ignoring the fact that I couldn't fly anymore.
Batman was tapping on the computer, as usual. "Erica, there's been readings of rainstorms and tornadoes over Berlin."
"So?" I pressed.
"So," he continued, "we have a theory that a...

“Megan, come take a look at this!” I called. She flew over, keeping a distance from the fire. I smiled apologetically.
“Megan, this pictures… they are going through the years, anything I remember from when I was four up to now”
“Why four?” Megan asked
“I don’t like to talk about it” I looked away. I heard Megan gasp. I turned back to the fuoco and it had turned pinkish red. I looked at the pictures and realized they were of people I either had a crush on o loved, like my mom. It went through my years then finally caught up with the present. First it showed my mom, then Johnny...

‘Phase one, complete. On to phase two!’ I thought
I grabbed a really full glass of water and walked over to Wally.
“Water? te must be thirsty from running all the way here from…where were te again?” I asked. Behind Wally, Artemis was making gagging motions
“I was in stella, star City” he detto matter-of-factly
“Wow. That’s far for a person to run” I laid the flattery on pretty thick. I offered him the water, spilling it on his shirt. That was not part of the plan. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Megan and Robin laughing slightly. I closed the gates of my mind. I looked at my hands....

"In a ghost town?"

I paced around the room, ignoring the team's confused looks and Batman's tapping on the computer.
Lian was on my mind the whole time. I couldn't orso to think that something bad had happened to her.
I looked at Batman, who was staring at a map on the computer screen. He kept zooming in and out, not able to find anything.
I groaned and started pacing again, impatient.
Finally, beeping noises came from the computer. On the map, was a glowing yellow dot.
"What's that?" I demanded, pointing at it.
"I just tracked Jeannette's signal, when Kid Flash contacted her. Hopefully, Lian is with her."
Megan...

"Pinky promise?"

"Jenny!" Lian yelled, running into my arms.
"Lian!" I exclaimed. "Thank God you're okay." I had to remind myself that it wasn't her fault that my boyfriend cheated on me.
I wiped away the tears that fell down her eyes. "What happened to you?"
"Hairy man took me, and I ran away!" she wailed.
"Shh," I hushed, hearing something. "Do te hear that?"
"Hear what--?"
"Shh!" I hissed. A very familiar laughter thundered in my ears. I heard it coming from a run-down shack.
"Come on!" I urged, taking her hand. We ran into the shack, and looked around. It was filled with garden tools, and all such.
"Gardens,...

"She looked at my hand, where my promise ring was missing."

I dumped my bag on the couch, and ignored Megan's confused expression.
"What are te doing?" she inquired as I sat down successivo to her.
"Don't worry, I asked my brother first," I replied. "I'm going to live here with te and Superboy."
She slid her hand on my shoulder. "If there's something te need to talk about..." she looked at my hand, where my promise ring was missing.
I was about to deny that, but the Mission alarm suddenly rang. We raced to the Mission Room, where the rest of the team awaited Batman to tell us the mission.
To my surprise, Roy was there, looking worried.
Batman looked emotionless....

"The birthday girl!"

I flew into the familiar greenish mountain and found my teammates in the Mission Room, along with Batman and Red Tornado.
"The birthday girl!" Robin greeted as I came up beside him.
Batman looked at the computer screen. "The daughter of wealthy company owner, Jack Nelson, is the successivo target for the League of Shadows. We have word that they are sending an assassin after her." He looked firm. "In the successivo few hours, the team is to watch her every step, just in case. Can te handle that?"
Superboy scoffed. "With my powers, I can handle anything."
Megan gave him a stern look before answering. "We...

I flew over to the team and noticed Robin was still smirking. I leaned over to him before Batman started.
“Do te want to wipe that smirk off your face, o do I need to do it for you?” I asked, raising my mace. His eyes widened and his smirk faded. I smiled and faced Batman again.
“Okay team. A beast is rampaging through town center. We don’t know what it is o what it wants, so be careful. It is a beast with the ability to shoot paralyzing acid and its screams are ten times worse then Black Canary’s” Batman informed us. He saw my mask then noticed the two Robin’s. He looked back...

"A bluish dragon emerged out of the water, its nostrils flaring in the mist."

I could feel so much as just one burn. It singed my back, where my Airbending tatoos were located. Everything around me was white; like I was glued to a blank piece of paper.
Am I in Heaven? I took a step forward. Like a combination, a waterfall appeared, its roaring waters calming all the panic in my mind.
I flew downward, landing on nice green grass.
Yep. This is definitely Heaven. I laid down on the erba and closed my eyes. I cleared my mind of everything; Roy, my family... It hurt too much to think of them.
"The Avatar..." detto a rough voice.
I jumped up. "I know I've done some bad things...
