Watchtower Cafeteria<br/><br/>Amethyst<br/><br/>Amethyst sighed. Nightstar and Artemis looked busy. Sure, she needed a new stone before the next mission, but she hated to bother her actual leaders. Yeah, there was no way she was asking Oracle. Not the way she just sounded off. With another sigh, she tapped Artemis' shoulder.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorchid">"So... I really need a new stone from my family's mine on my planet, seeing as the first was turned to so much powder, yet saved my life... But I'm part of a team now and need permission of my commander. Or one of them."</span><br/><br/>Artemis<br/><br/>As she was figuring how to answer Nightstar, and get a chance to interrogate the civilian about all things Norse mythology, Amethyst tapped her shoulder. She gave the warrior princess a slow blink with a soft frown which was the expression she gave everyone who annoyed her. Kid Flash got a lot of those.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"How do you NEED my PERMISSION? You pick a teammate and just tell one of us where you're going. Aren't YOU a leader yourself? Use your head."</span>She held up a hand.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"Not. Finished."</span>A sigh and look to Nightstar.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"Who do you think she should take? One of the new recruits. I'd pair her with Batgirl to give her a trial run working with a member because Kara and Alina definitely need more training first. They're complete noobs. I trust Ivy about as far as I could throw her because she seems too skittish, and Rain is more a frontline healer."</span><br/><br/>Ember (featuring Artemis)<br/><br/>Olive just sort of smiled at the attention and gave Nightstar a loving look. She couldn't stay quiet after Artemis tirade (seemingly) at Amethyst.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orangered">"Shouldn't Amethyst have a fellow fighter with her? I mean, we know very little about Gem World. And although I'm with Nightstar on not involving Holmes... If that's really her name, why can't you two question her about why she was trying to involve herself? Doesn't matter that what she said was true... Being outmatched and already beaten..."</span>She turned to Nightstar.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orangered">"She could be right too. Doesn't the goddess Freya have that kind of knowledge? How else could she have known that they were NORDIC runes. That's pretty specific. And aren't the valkyries of Norse legend also supposed to know that stuff?"</span>She kind of slunk in her chair.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orangered">"That woman could be a Valkyrie. Or Freya herself. I mean she got really pissed at Wonder Woman and disappeared extremely quick. Like she flew away or something. Have to wonder if some of that storm wasn't her doing. Don't valkyries control the weather like that too? Just not as strong as Thor... But bring clouds and rain."</span><br/><br/>Artemis looked at Ember and then Nightstar.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"Not sure if you got something there, kid."</span>Never mind Ember was almost eighteen.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"But I did notice she was being protective of both our strange visitor and us. It could make sense if she was Freya, since she knew the runes, didn't act surprised when the blonde said something about 'for Asgard' or something, and wanted to defend Loki's honor. Her uncle, I think she said? Holmes acted like she expected it. If our visitor is Thor's daughter, her grandmother WOULD expect it from her granddaughter to stick up for family."</span>Artemis might have made sense... But unlike Holmes, she was grasping for straws now, and needed to be calmly called out on it.<br/><br/>Boomtubes on Watchtower (in order of continuity)<br/><br/>Oracle watched the five come in.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"This is in order based on your tests and experience. Ivy. You're C013."</span>She handed the plant controller her card.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"I had problems with you next two and decided to use the alphabet. That's the reason Batgirl is C014, and Rain is C015."</span>She handed out the next two.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Kara, Alina. I am giving you both homework. Think up hero names for yourselves. If we choose, more than likely it'll be more on your abilities than your personalities. Granted, most of us chose pretty uninspired names. Kara. Your tests came back and your powers are 25% stronger than PowerGirl. SHE is close to, if not, TWICE as strong as your brother. Alina. Your hard light rivals the Lanterns, and may even BE stronger than them. I'm trusting Nightstar to test that. If you want your hero names to reflect that, do so. But at least TRY to be creative. Therefore, based on powers, Alina is still stronger than you, Kara, just with the power of the hard light. It's defensive as well as offensive. Yours are offensive only. Alina, C016, Kara C017."</span>The keys were handed out.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Go to Mount Justice when the rest of your team does. Not before. Now, go back to them and wait. I've got work to do. Any questions you have please ask your leaders. That's what they're there for."</span><br/><br/>Ivy asked,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:springgreen">"What about my BoP commlink?"</span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Keep it. You're demoted, not fired. I want you back, when you're more seasoned. Get your YJ commlinks from Artemis or Nightstar the minute you're in Mount Justice. Your cards are for your rooms. They'll turn the commlinks on. Leave them on. You're on call 24/7."</span>Oracle beamed down before anyone could ask anything else.<br/><br/>Ivy shrugged.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:springgreen">"Yeah. All business. She's really pissed at Huntress. Wouldn't wanna be in her shoes."</span><br/><br/>Gotham City Airport<br/><br/>Holmes sighed as she answered the call.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:blanchedalmond">"Erin Holmes. Hmmm. Ah yes. Detective Mulder? Don't recollect one in Star City, therefore, you are recently transferred. By your tone of voice you're none too happy about a mundane task, thus a demotion from special ops most likely. Well, keep your nose to the grindstone and you'll be back cracking cases you actually enjoy before you know it. Now. To your question. As a private investigator, I know how thorough an investigation needs be."</span>She then relayed in detail, including times and where she was, beginning in her hotel room when she first saw the light tornado, how far she was and how long it took her to arrive on the scene. She had actually beaten Young Justice by "mere seconds" as she put it. Noticing how badly beaten and uncoordinated (on many accounts) they were, she tried to reason with the strange woman and the already tired leaguers to talk it out, but ONE member of YJ  just wanted to fight. Needless to say... It didn't go well for anyone. She described the guilty party since she didn't know the name, and requested Star City leave her alone as she was "quite certain" she was punished enough already, reiterating the part about her being knocked out. She also said that she had wished to do this later, but since she had a detective on the line now, made her formal complaint against Wonder Woman, including all those details, too. She then informed Detective Mulder to personally contact her if she had any more questions regarding either, but to please wait twelve hours until she got back to London. Mulder was lucky she was in a layover in Gotham, otherwise Holmes wouldn't had received the call, her voicemail would have, and it would have been a very late return call, and likely "phone tag" which Holmes personally hated.
