“I thought we'd never find you!” Devin cried as she hugged her brother.
“I thought we would never be found! Being held prisoner is no picnic, especially when you're moved place to place.”
Devin laughed and cried at the same time, pulling away to look Robin in his covered eyes.
“What are you guys doing here?” Artemis asked. “I mean I'm incredibly happy to be freed but why are you here?”
“Young Justice,” Devin began, “meet Young Justice Reformation.”
“What? Is that like some kind of club or something?”
Artemis slapped Wally in the back of the head. Willow laughed and cuddled next to him.
“Batman had us search for you,” Erin replied. “And we were pretty good.”
“Yeah. I liked it,” Jade said from her curled up position by Kaldur.
“But there's only six of you. How'd you manage?”
“Oh yeah,” Devin realized, stepping away from her brother and closer to Erin.
Robin opened his mouth to speak but was quickly interrupted.
“Robin!”
Becca flew from the shadows, jumping her boyfriend and causing them both to fall in the process. She hugged him tightly before pulling away to smother his face and lips in kisses. Robin held her tightly and brought his hand to the back of her neck when she kissed his lips.
“I missed you,” she said when he'd pulled away and touched their foreheads together.
“I could tell. I missed you too.”
“Probably not as much,” Erin cut in. “She totally cut Batman off when we first became Young Justice and demanded to know what we were doing.”
“Shut up!” Becca said with a blush.
“I think it's cute,” Robin said and Becca blushed even more.
“Pink's a nice shade on you Becca,” Wally cracked.
Becca pulled the escrim sticks from their holds and twirled them around.
“Don't make me smack you; I'll give it my all.”
“Wait! You're saying that what I saw at Arkham wasn't your best?!” Erin sputtered.
“Arkham? As in Arkham Asylum?” Robin asked. “What were you doing there?”
“And why do I have the feeling I should be worried?” Wally added.
“We were doing undercover work there-which is actually more fun than it sounds- and your crazy girlfriend totally took out all the guards! Plus two dudes with super strength!”
“I did not,” Becca muttered. “They were only out for an hour, as were all the others, and it was either that method or all of Hell break loose.”
“You mean Arkham,” Wally corrected.
“That's what I said.”
“So tell us more about Young Justice Reformation,” Artemis demanded, sensing that Becca wanted the topic off of her.
“Well it started when...who was it that arrived at the mountain first?” Jade asked, eyebrows knit together.
“One guess, honey,” Erin said, motioning her head to Becca.
“Right. Becca arrived first. Then she called in Devin, Erin, and myself. Batman called in Kitty, Nightress, Obsidian, and Paura. But the only reason we started this was because Becca and Erin demanded to find you. Becca thought it would syke out the villains if they were in Arkham and Erin thought it would cause some more mental damage.”
“And it worked,” Devin said. “We almost got killed four times! But we...”
Devin trailed off when she caught Becca's pleading eyes. She'd almost forgotten the promise they'd made. After their first attempt.
“...We survived. The villains were totally genius and, Robin you would have been so proud! Becca just amazed us with her villainous routine! She actually sounded and acted like a villain. Completely amazing! I, honestly, thought she'd started to forget about us. Turns out you have to think like the criminal to find them.”
“How'd you pull that one off Bec?” Artemis asked, looking at her wayward friend.
“Hmmm. Just a lot of...criminal study I guess you could say. Anyway, we found out that the villains were using a little...ugh what do you call it?”
“Tracker?” Wally offered.
“No. Ummm...nanobot I think. They used it to follow our every move. But Erin got rid of it with a huge windstorm. The only reason we knew about it was because of the electric spark it was giving out. That was after our first attempt.”
“But then we ran into more trouble. Turns out that, if you hit a criminal with wind power, it only helps them,” Erin said. “Jade saved us with that one by creating this...what was it?”
“Pocket dimensional transporter,” Jade answered.
“Right. Anyway, we soon learned of this place. It seemed like the perfect place to hide you guys. Of course we were expected and that's when the really big fight began. I don't know what happened after I got winded though.”
“Me neither,” Devin admitted. “I only woke up because Becca was holding her smelling salts.”
“Nothing much happened. Just a small tussle before I destroyed the power box that concealed you,” Becca filled in.
“A small tussle caused you to get a huge injury?” Artemis asked.
Becca placed a hand to her bandaged side but they could still see the blood stained gauze bandage through her spread out fingers.
“No. I had to use my gun to shut off the box. I accidentally got myself but I'm alright. Really.”
Robin placed his hand on hers, trying to pry her fingers loose. It was clear by how stubborn she was being, as well a s the look on her face, that Becca was not completely okay. Becca sighed as Robin checked it out, applying pressure to the wound.
“You're going to need stitches,” he mumbled.
“I know. I just haven't had time.”
“We should go before Batman calls,” Erin decided.
“Shouldn't we call him now?” Devin asked. “Weren't we supposed to check in with every new discovery? Or something like that?”
“Yes. But this is no discovery,” Becca said. A smile lit her face. “It's a completed mission.”
“I thought we would never be found! Being held prisoner is no picnic, especially when you're moved place to place.”
Devin laughed and cried at the same time, pulling away to look Robin in his covered eyes.

"Batman's symbol shone in the night sky, able to see anywhere in Gotham."
