"Leave it to a group of superheros to be late for something as important as this..." I hummed in French as I stood in the Hall of Justice's outer sanctum while I chewed my already dull fingernails, pacing under the giant statues of the founding members of the Justice League.

Aqualad and Aquaman, Speedy and Green Arrow, Robin and Batman, Kid Flash and Flash. All of the fighting different ice villians each on possibly one of the most important days of the sidekick's lives. The day we finally get to go into the inner sanctum of the Justice League's-our mentors-HQ.

"The least they could have done is asked me to help them! This is SO boring!" I said in my native tongue before blowing my hair out of my face.

"You seem upset." A masculine voice said beside me and I jumped in fright before I turned to see Red Tornado, or as I like to call him: Red, standing there.

Last time I checked he was in the inner sanctum with the Martian Manhunter. Guess he stepped out.

"Just a little anxious I suppose. I like sticking to plans...and not feeling useless...and punctuality...and not worrying about my friends..." I said, rambling nervously as I played with the loose fabric that hung around my hip as a belt. "You know how I am."

"We have received word from Batman, Aquaman, Green Arrow and Flash. They wikl be arriving shorty. They are unharmed." My robotic mentor said and I nodded. "And remember your training Lina, breathe."

I smiled at my mentor and nodded. My mentor mat have been a robot, but I swear he was more human then a lot of people I know. He's like a second father to me, even though he doesn't know that. I guess a girl can thrive with two dad's and no mom afterall.

Suck it homophobia.

Wait, my dad and Red aren't married.

Oops.

Breaking my train of thought, the front door of the Hall of Justice opened and the four duo's of superhero walked in. At the same time, Martian Manhunter walked in.

"Zephyr!" Robin exclaimed as he saw me and he ran over to tackle me in a hug attack. The action almost caught me off guard but I managed to send a wind couter-attack before he reached me and safely lifted the small raven-haired boy up and around me before putting him on the ground.

"Not today Robin." I said, smiling victoriously. It wasn't often that I was able to counter the ninja's attacks.

"Not bad...for an ammetur." He mocked and I blushed.

"Nice going Gorgeous." Kid Flash's voice said from beind me and I turned to smile at the ginger speedster.

"Hey KF." I said timidly.

"Hey Shorty." A low growl broke our laughter and I turned to see one of my best friends, Roy Harper AKA Speedy standing there. A flush crossed my face.

"Must you continue to call me that?" I asked.

"Always." He said, rubbing myhead and making a few hairs escaoe from the side-braid traveling down from my head to my elbow area.

That just left...

I turned to the last 'sidekick' of the room and made eye contact with the teenage superhero I got along the most with.

Kaldur'ahm.

"Hey Aqualad." I said simply as my mask-covered blue eyes made contact with his magnificent silver-marine ones.

"Hello Zephyr. Its nice to see you again." He said with a head-nod.

"You too." I replied.

"Oh get a room you two." Roy said as he punched Kaldur in the shoulder.

Then a throat cleared, sending out attention to Martian Manhunter.

"Robin. Speedy. Aqualad. Zephyr. Kid Flash. Welcome to the Hall of Justice."

Today is the day.
