We were at Baltimore Mall. We just had lunch with my friends Wally, Artemis , Conner. I was laughing at Wally, he just had a jalapeño, seeds and all. His face was priceless.

Wally has fiery red hair, freckles and green eyes, couple inches smaller than me. Artemis has long, choppy blonde hair, a couple inches taller than me. Conner has scruffy black hair, about my height, and dark blue eyes.

We are laughing so hard at Wally's face. He just ran to get a drink and he ran to the sea to do it. It made it all worse. He was running to find bread and the heat subsided. He was laughing at himself.

We're having a great time until the earthquake. All adults disappeared. We had superpowers and we had to change into our superhero forms. "Let's go!" I grin and said. Wally runs super-fast in a circle. Artemis says "Erika, Now!" the earth encircles her. I change fast too. The earth envelops me and I become Terra.

"M'gann, are you here?" I send my thoughts though the ground. "M'gann, where are you?!" "I'm behind you in camouflage." She responds. "Good, I need you to turn into human form and calm the kids! "Oh by the way, M'gann is a Martian.

As she calms the kids, Kid Flash (Wally), Artemis (Artemis), and I try to get the kids to schools in the area. Conner runs to switch his shirt inside out. Where he becomes Superboy. He jumps 50 feet to me. I hand him 5 kids and, he smiles and jumps to the nearest school.

As he comes back, I am grab from behind. Conner jumps to help. I beat him to it. The ground under my holder's feet turns to quicksand. I turn to see M'gann with blue eyes instead of brown. "M'gann!"

My capturer responds "I am not M'gann, I am...!" the face disappeared under the earth. I will the earth to force her up and hardened around her. "She can't leave the block. It is solid titanium." I say. "How?" Conner asked. "One of my many hidden talents!" I reply. He laughs.

As all kids are round up, I sit on the roof of one of the school. I start to sing. Conner comes up to see if I am ok probably. He says" You sounded beautiful." We sat together on the roof in the middle of the night. I know sounds crazy but it was amazing.

Conner and I sat on the roof, laughing and generally having a great time. M'gann comes to find me. She asks, "Have you asked him to the dance?" Couldnt take it. There is a rumor going around the school, it says Conner and I are dating. "Not you, too, M'gann! "I almost scream. I am sick all of the lies and rumor. "I just sick of that question, I am sorry, M'gann." She laughs. "Dont apologize, Erika. I poked you about you about Conner. "I laugh, M'gann respects you,even when you are knocking sense into her. She is my best friend for a reason.

Well when I come up the stairs, Connor is obviously waiting for me to come back. He just smiles and says, "What was that about?" I look him like, Is that any of your business? and he drops the subject. So, I try to ask if he would go to the dance with. Then he asks, "Will you, umm, go to, umm, the dance with, umm, me?" I laugh and say, "Of course, but what is with all the um's?" He starts laughing like crazy. But I was relieved that I didnt have to ask myself.

Later that morning, I run to the nearest Zeta tubes so I can go back to HQ. And I am there, I run into Zatanna. "Oh, hey, Zatanna, sorry but I need our help. "She seem to know what I needed her to do. I run to the main interface and pull up a globe and she looks so scared. But she say the spell and I found Klarion the Witch Boy and his colleagues.

I zeta back to the school. And find the team past out on the ground below but they are not in the right uniform. Someone is showing me my fear in my mind. I try to push all thoughts out. Then I hear an unmistakable sound. The fury of hearing Conner hurt made me try so hard to break her spell.

I broke Klarion s spell. He flew back 20 feet, away from Conner luckily. I landed next to Conner, with rage in my eyes. I felt used ,a toy if you will, but most of all I felt rage. Had it not been that my friends were injured, I might of killed Klarion . That is how mad I was that someone had hurt my friends. I fly at Klarion to stop him from escaping.

The earth surrounds her and she tries to break free, it is no use. I take him in and lock her up. I take her to base and the JLA is taken her into their custody. As I am walking away, Superman walked up to me and said, "Thank you for saving Superboy." I respond in a simple manner, "Your welcome, Superman."

Kara Zor-El (Supergirl) and I are great friends. But, she seems nervous. I going about to about go up to her and say hi. And she flies over and thanks me for saving Conner. So, I go see Conner. He is healing well. He is still asleep. He wakes up just after I enter the room. I smile and said, "Hey, how you feeling?" He simply smile and responds, "Better than I was. Thanks."

I respond, "You would have done the same for me." I was looking down ashamed because i just used the lamest excuse ever. But, he smiled. I force a smile so he thinks I am not upset. But of course he noticed. "Whats wrong?" he said as he is reaching for my hand. He takes it. "There is no shame in what you just said because it is true. I would have done the same for you." That just made me blush. I just realized I like Conner Kent. Oh my god, now that I thought that I know it is true. I want to kiss him so badly. I fought the urge. So tell him goodbye and walk out to see my ex ,Eric Novak. I said "Hey Eric." My voice steely cold. He responds, "How is Conner?" I yell, "Like you ever cared?!" He seemed surprised by the accusation. But I am not fooled by his acting. "Youre an idiot! You never cared about Conner ever seen I started to dating Conner!. Is this because I am dating him and not you? "Again, He seemed surprised by my accusation.

But all of a sudden pull me to him and tries to kiss me. I sink into the floor. And Conner feeling better and asked "Whats going on?" I immediately say, "He just tried to kiss me! What is wrong with you?" Conner looked at Eric and whispered, "If you come within a foot of her, I will" I walk up and tapped him on shoulder and say Conner, calm down and come over for a second. So he did, and tell him something is off about Eric. He listened to me rant about what happened at the high school.

And then he kissed me. I was surprised. He said, "You're a genius!" I wondering why he said that but my brain so concerned about what happened.

Then I hear Artemis scream, I sink though the floor and by her side. Just as Conner enters and he starts scream like there was a sonic disruptor that I couldnt hear. So, I scanned of a disruptor in the cave. As I did I tried not to listen to the screams of Conner and Artemis.

When I found it, I willed the cave floor to rise and slam back down with so much force that the disruptor broke into smithereens.

Artemis and Conner dropped to the floor, unconscious. I ran to Artemis and Conner. I put Conners head in my lap and I started crying into Conners hair. I said,"No, no, no, Conner stay with me please, dont leave me. "
