❝ You must be swift as the coursing river, with all the force of a great typhoon, with all the strength of a raging fire, as mysterious as the dark side of the moon and as strong as the ground beneath you. ❞
Wally West, Kid Flash

GOTHAM CITY JULY 17, 22:57 EDT
Katara was in her room finishing homework when Dick rushed in without knocking. She turned and rolled her eyes at his presence. It seemed that no matter the number of times she had told him to knock before entering her room, was nowhere to be found in his head.
"I️ got a hit! I️ know where Roy'll be!" Dick said in a rush, which caused Katara to dismiss the annoyance she once felt. She followed Dick out of her room and down to the Batcave to dress and zeta-beam. When they arrived in Star City, they found Kid Flash and Aqualad already awaiting them.
"Are we sure that he's going to be here?" Avatar asked her group of friends, as they made their way to the location. Robin glanced over his shoulder and nodded, "Green Arrow radioed in that Speedy's been getting to crimes faster than him. He'll be here."
Avatar nodded. Kid Flash sped off to analyze the area by the docks, before the group made an appearance. When he returned he said, "All good. No Speedy in sight."
Aqualad glanced around the freight car they hid behind and said, "Yet."
At his words, a small explosion caught their attention. They looked around the corner to see Speedy in the distance while the villain, Brick, aimed his enhanced weapon at the archer.
"You again! I'm startin' to get insulted Green Arrow's Not messin' up my operations personally," Brick announced and shot at Speedy. Avatar left the spot and went to assist Speedy. She launched a ball of fire at Brick, which incinerated his suit.
"Do you know what I pay for a suit in my size?! Scorch the Earth, boys," Brick declared to his henchmen.
Speedy narrowed his eyes at Avatar and rolled them when he saw Robin, Aqualad and Kid Flash arrive. "What are you doing here, Kat?"
"We want you to rethink your decision to leave," Avatar informed him with a hopeful smile. Speedy sighed and pushed Avatar down alongside him. The shot of Brick's gun had luckily missed them. Brick launched a piece of rock at them which Avatar was able to easily deflect and launch back. Aqualad caught up to Speedy and Avatar and blocked an incoming attack.
"The cave is perfect. It has everything the team will need," Aqualad said to Speedy. Robin appeared behind them and added, "For covert missions, you know, spy stuff."
