Ann's POV:

Conner and I cleaned ourselves up and headed for the cave, after all, we still needed to tell the others the good news. we found the team in the kitchen eating apple pie, and just from the smell I could tell that it was Mrs., Kent's famous apple pie.

"Guys, we have something to tell you." I said making sure to keep my voice from shaking, I didn't want to show them all how nervous I truly am at the moment. But Conner, being my husband, sensed my feelings and grabbed my hand, rubbing small circles into my palm with his thumb to show that I wasn't alone.

"Well? What is it?" Wally demanded, and only after looking at the clock did I realize that Conner and I had been standing there looking at eachother for a good ten minutes.

"There are a lot of things we want to tell you," I started, and then I looked at Conner, begging him to tell them so I wouldn't have to.

"We are moving out of the cave, I'm not going to be collapsing again anytime soon, Annispregnant, I'm sorry, and I'm glad to be back in action." Conner said in a rush, saying the third thing so quickly no one could have made it out, no one but a Flash that is.

"ANN IS PREGNANT!" Wally yelled, and Conner cringed away from him as the sound penetrated his eardrums and caused him pain from the high pitch of the words.

"Yes," Conner told him as soon as his ears stopped ringing, "and must you yell."

"Yes, I must, and. OMG….. doyouwantaboyoragirl? Whatareyougingtonameit? Areyoustilgoingtolivehere? Canibethegodfather? O.M.G" Wally said in his typical flash fashion, speaking so fast that no one can understand him. Luckily for all of us, Conner learned how to understand Wally speak years ago.

"Wally slow down, one question at a time." Conner said with a chuckle. "We don't care, but we already know it's going to be a boy. His name is going to be Jacy, Jace for short. No, Batman's wedding present to us is a house of our own, we will be moving there. And we've already decided that Batman is going to be the godfather, and after him is Robin, then it will be your turn."

"So what you're saying." Wally said, and from the evil look in eye, I knew that what he was about to say was going to be evil, but a joke. "Is that if something happens to the two of you, and if Batman and Robin are incapable of looking after the child, I will have full custody of your baby?"

"Unfortunately," I told him jokingly but then we all started laughing, because at that moment the past couple of days melted away, and we could all forget about how close we had come to loosing Conner. Who was not only a husband, and a friend, but he was also family and a brother to everyone in this room. Except for me, he's my husband and it would be just too weird if he was my brother.

"Now can our lives go back to normal?" Dick asked, and just as I was about to tell him yes; a portal opened out of nowhere and a blue energy beam shot out of it, only to hit Jynx in the chest, causing her to go flying backwards into the wall. The portal disappeared, and we all ran to Jynx' side, but when we got there her head snapped up and she glared at us.

"Jynx?" Dick asked her, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." She said, but her voice was not her own, it was the voice of a demon, a creature that was neither man nor beast, and I knew that if it hadn't been for the fact that I was batman's daughter I would be terrified. "But I must complete my mission, for my master."

"What is your mission?" Wally asked, deciding to ignore the whole 'master' thing.

"KILL ALL MEMBERS OF THE YOUNG JUSTICE TEAM BUT ROBIN."

Dick's POV

I looked at Jynx, wishing that I had heard her wrong, but knowing that I hadn't. Jynx truly had just said that she was going to kill everyone on the team, but me. and the last part surprised me to no end, why wold she kill everyone but me? it made no sense. but I had no time to dwell on this surprising fact, because at that moment something caught my eye.

Jynx's eyes had changed color, instead of being the beautiful green they used to be (A/N I looked in BHD and ASD and can't find out what her real eyes color is so I just said green), which could only mean one thing.

"Jynx isn't in control of herself, she's under the control of someone else, we have to find who ever is controlling her." I yelled to the team, and they all nodded their heads in understanding. then Conner pointed behind me and I turned to see that Jynx was very close to me, she spun around and aimed a mule kick at my cheast. I easily blocked the kick by grabbing her leg, and flipping her over my shoulder towards the others. but Jynx grabbed a hold of Artemis, and next thing I knew there were two archers standing side by side glaring at eachother. they both turned to Wally.

"don't just stand there baywatch, you look like the idiot I know you are." one of them said, and the other one did Artemis' signature smirk. making it so they both seemed to me the real archer. but I looked closely at there eyes and easily could tell which one was the real Artemis.

"I'm sorry beautiful." I said right before I knocked the fake Artemis out with knock out gas. she turned back into Jynx and started to fall forward, and rushing forward I caught her before picking her up and carrying her to the couch, where I gently set her down and covered her with a blanket.

stepping back I studied the beautiful girl lying on the couch in front of me. even though her eyes were closed I knew they wouldn't be the beautiful green then usually were again, unless we took out the person controlling her. her beautiful hair (which at the moment was sea blue), was pulled back in a pony-tail, but some strands had escaped and I moved them from in front of her face. she looked so comfortable at the moment, and I couldn't help myself. I leaned forward and pressed my lips to her forehead. I kept my lips there and breathed in her lovely sent, she smelled of strawberries, and vanilla, it was a wonderful sent, and my new favorite.

"dude, we should probably be trying to find out who's controlling her." wally said, and I sighed before taking my lips from her forehead and turning to look at the team. they were all watching me and I saw tears in the eyes of M'gann. "have any ideas who it is?"

"it's no one I know of" I told her, and then I noticed something else about Jynx from the corner of my eye. on her neck is a small bruise, I turned and studied the bruise before taking out my wrist computer, and scanning the bruise. my computer quickly told me that the bruise had been inflicted by a device from the future. and it easily told me that who ever was controlling Jynx wasn't from our time, but the future. "who ever is controlling her isn't from this time, so one of us must go to the future and see if we can find who is."

"I'm going." Conner said, before anyone else could speak, and then before any of us could object he spoke again. "you won't change my mind, I'm the only one that will be able to do this without being harmed. you know I can get anyone to talk to me, I have no idea why but everyone loves me. I even got Batman to like me, hell, he let me marry his beloved daughter. no one is better for this job than I am."

"he is correct. only he will be able to complete this mission with little or no injury." Kaldur spoke for the first time, and we all looked at him. "I for one think he is the best choice and should be the one to carry out this mission."

"Kaldur and Conner are right." I spoke. "Conner is the best choice, so if no one disagrees, we should be gathering the things he will need."

I looked around, waiting to see if someone would disagree with Conner going alone. but everyone was silent. after meeting the eyes of almost all of them, I looked into the blue eyes of my sister. I saw this look in my sisters eyes that scared me to death, the look spoke of pain, anger and sadness. and I was instantly glad that I wasn't in Conner's shoes.

"then lets get to work. Artemis, get that magic bag, that can hold as much stuff as we need but never get heavier. and go to Conner's room and pack him some clothes, we have no idea how long he will be in the future. Wally, I want you to get together some sandwiches, drinks and snacks, put them in the bag with his clothes. Kaldur, he will need his weapons. the rest of you, just get back to your business." I ordered, then I took off my belt and started trying to find the one thing I didn't know exactly where it was, the time traveling device given to me by dad to use only if I must. and while I looked for this item, I listened as Conner and my sister talked, knowing it was a private conversation, but that they wanted me here so they could at least pretend to be okay with not being together for a while.

"I don't want to go Ann, but you know I'm the logical option for this." Conner told Ann as he pulled her to his cheast and held her tight. Ann wrapped her arms around her husband and clung to him, knowing that it could be a while before he saw her again, and also knowing that if it was anything like when they had gone to the future, he would return to them seconds after her left, but that he could have been in the future for a long time.

"I know, which is why I'm not going to yell at you for deciding to leave me again so soon." Ann told him softly, then she pressed her lips softly to his. the two of them continued to kiss for a while. until Artemis, and Wally came into the room carrying a bag. Wally and Artemis were holding hands but they quickly released eachother when they walked in. the two walked over to Conner and handed him the bag, Conner took the bag and nodded towards Wally, without taking his eyes off of Ann.

moments latter the door opened and we all looked that way to see Kaldur walking in with a weird bundle in his arms.

let me explain real quick... Conner gets really board, so almost a year ago, Wonder Woman came across him while he was board, and offered to give him something to occupy his time. she taught him how to use a sword, and now he often has knifes hidden on his person. hell, after their honey-moon, Ann and I had been talking, and she told me that on their honey-moon she found ten knifes on him. and he could make his sword look like a ring so he often had it on. except the other day Ann had stolen his sword and refused to give it back. and he was about to find out why.

Kaldur smiled as he handed the bundle over to Conner, and then we all watched as Conner unwrapped the bundle, to find a sword that had been made just for him - at the request of Ann - by the Amazon warriors. and boy was it beautiful.

the sword is hidden in a plain leather sheath, and Conner takes it out to examine it. the sword was made out of hetayyo, which is a form of metal that has magical properties. the metal is the strongest is the world and not even Superman can bend it, it is amazing. the metal has been dyed blue, so the blade of the sword is a deep sea blue, and seems to glow. at the top of the handle, is a beautiful red gem cut in the shape of a bat. the handle is made of pure gold, but like the hetayyo it has magical properties in it, making it no heavier than a penny. the sword is sharp, and down the blade is a saying, which is different on both sides.

on the right side is engraved:

Gid jer altid sig bolig pa mig

on the left is engraved:

maj mit alske lede din om slag ved du sikker fra nogen und hele skade und vende du behold zu mig.

he smiled at the sayings, and I smiled as well, knowing what they meant. but knowing also that the others did not. I looked once again at the beauty sleeping on the cough beside me, and put my hand in my pocket, running my thumb over the locket I had hidden there. I had planned to give it to Jynx, but it now seemed as if I would have to wait.

"what do they mean?" Wally asked, and Conner smiled at him about to answer. but Ann answered before he could.

"on the right side is engraved...may you always come home to me." Ann told them all. "and on the left side is engraved... may my love guide you in battle, keep you safe from any and all harm, and return you safely to me."

"that is so sweat." Artemis said, and then Conner turned to us all and then one by one he laid a hand on our shoulders.

"I'll be back as soon as I can." he told us all, and then just like that I opened the portal and he disappeared through it, grabbing my device on the way, and taking it. ensuring that no one can follow him.

"what do we do now?" Wally asked me, I didn't see why they were all looking to me, I mean. Kaldur is our leader, and Ann is the most experienced of well, everyone. the only person that has been protecting people longer than her is Batman, and that's only by a year. but they were looking to me, so I answered his question.

"the only thing we can do," I said, "we wait."

there are only two chapters left.
