Chapter Fourteen-
Mount Justice
15:23 EDT December 23,
Wally was the last person Artemis expected to see sitting by her bedside next to the Boy Wonder with a worried look on his face.
She groaned and turned over, startling Wally and Robin.
"You're okay!" Wally exclaimed.
Artemis sat up in the bed. "What happened?" she asked groggily, then started panicking. "Where's mom? Is she okay? What-"
Robin held up a hand. "Your mom is okay. Batman took her home and made sure she was safe."
Artemis relaxed in the bed.
"Robin, report to the Batcave." A computerized voice said over the loudspeakers. Robin left the room for the zeta-tubes.
Wally looked sympathetically at Artemis.
"Wally, I'm sorry I didn't tell you that Cheshire was my sister or that I worked for the shadows. I was afraid-"
"-We'd kick you off." Wally finished. "Can't blame you for taking that opinion, especially the way I treated you."
"And I you." Artemis said.
Wally stuck out his hand. "Friends?" he asked.
"Friends." Artemis said, shaking his hand.
"So what else do I not know about you?" Wally asked. "You might as well tell me everything."
"Well, for starters, my dad is..."

Artemis yawned and walked into the room. "Ever heard of sleep-"
She stopped at the sight of the huge tree and all the presents underneath.
"-ing?"
Artemis walked over and plopped down, looking at all the stacked presents and the wrapping paper on the floor. "How long have you guys been up?"
"An hour." Wally said, blurring in from the kitchen with an arm full of food. His foot slipped on a piece of wrapping paper and he fell flat on his back, the food landing all over him.
Artemis laughed.
"That is so not funny." Wally said, whipping Cheetos off his chest.
"Is too!"
"Is not!"
"Is too!"
"Is not!"
"Oh boy." Robin said face palming himself. "Here we go again."
THE END!
