Chapter 14: RT

Normal P.O.V:

        "Pineapple juice," beams Captain Marvel being a slave to the princess known as Wally. I turn my attention back to Karma who was reading a book while sparing me. He wasn't even taking me seriously and I feel like Naruto. I go for a barrage of attacks but he just keeps moving around and annoying me. "This is so lame, why do I have to spar when Wally is down?" he groans flipping me over his shoulder and then flips the page.
        "Good work everyone, in fact, it has been a very productive week," complements Black Canary walking over.
        "For everyone except kid malingerer," smirks Artemis.
        "And guardian of the year," I cough.
        "Hey, arm broken in combat against the injustice League here," he whins worst than a six-year-old.
        "Hey that's not nice," whines Karma worst then Wally.
        "I've really enjoyed being your den mother this week," Canary smiles as Karma scoffs and I gave him a dirty look.
        "Recognize Zatara 11," announces the computer as Zatara walks in and authorizes for a girl that looks our age to come.  
          "Zatanna this is the team, team this is my daughter Zatanna," he introduces.
        "Hi, I'm-" Megan tries to introduce but Dick cut her off.
        "ROBIN, I mean I'm Robin, she's Megan and that's Wally, Artemis, Kaldur, Conner and Kate," he interrupts.
        "Welcome to the cave," I smile.
        "Thanks," she blushes shyly.
        "So are you joining the team?" questions Robin excitedly.
        "Let's not get ahead of ourselves this is strictly a visit. I am sorry we missed the training it's something from which Zatanna,-" Megan cut him off. "Do the rest still get the impression that we are still on probation with Zatara?" she asks.
        "Probably, Alfred still hasn't baked me any cookies," I reply and they all sweat drop.
        "Not just Zatara I mean why is Marvel still hanging around?" asks Conner ignoring my comment.
        "Because we like having him around," grins Wally.
        "You like having him around because he waits on you hand and foot," scolds Artemis.
        "Your point is?" questions Wally being as slow as ever.
        "It almost makes one nostalgic from when Red Tornado was our supervisor," adds Aqualad.
        "Yea at least he trusted us," points out Robin.
        "If you ignore the fact we shouldn't have trusted him he's a traitor I mean he almost got Me- I mean all of us killed!" states Conner pissed.
        "Have faith this is just like the Aqualad situation there are always two sides to the story!" I say making a good point.
          "Are you guys having a psychic conversation? Cause I don't know if that's cool or really rude," Zatanna said honestly. Carney, Zatara and Karma start to glare and Conner spills, "fine we were talking about Tornado, it's been weeks since the attack the League hasn't told us anything."
        "The League is searching for Tornado as well as the other androids that invaded the cave and their creator T.O Morrow and Batman has made tracking him down our highest priority," Canary said trying to get us to drop the subject.
        "But you have found none of the above," protests Robin.
        "Not yet but Tornado is Justice League the team is not to pursue this," she said with finalization in her tone.
        "Why don't you take Zatanna on a tour of the cave?" suggests Karma trying to break the tension. We send Captain Marvel off with Wolf and head to the kitchen and Zatanna changes clothing and for some reason, Robin was flabberghasted yet I do it like all the time. "We're not really taking a tour are we?" she groans annoyed.
        "Nope we are going robot hunting," I say regretting it because that means we have to use the bioship.
        "Yes we are," confirms Aqualad.
        "Oh wow out loud and everything," she said impressed.
        "What about the new girl?" questions Artemis a bit rudely.
        "I'm sure she won't tell," defends Dick.
        "I won't tell, well I can't if you kidnap me," she hints and I was really starting to like this chick.
        "Oh she is going to fit in great," said Artemis reading my thoughts. We get on board and I make my home on the floor.         "Is she okay?" asks Zatanna with concern.
        "Don't worry this is her normal routine," replies Wally and I weakly threw a pebble at him.
        "Anyway, where are we going Batman is the world's greatest detective and he searched for Tornado and Morrow in every logical location," sighs Dick.
        "We need somewhere illogical," I groan looking directly at Wally.
        "You're right a truly dumb idea," said Dick catching on and now everyone was looking at Wally. We arrive at Belle Reve and we got his biggest competitor to spill where he was hiding but the thing is Megan wasn't the one to fetch the information it was Zatanna who used a spell to make him spill his guts.  
          "Black out all external communication soon Canary, Zatanna, Karma and even Batman will know of our 'visit' with professor Ivo we haven't much time," said Aqualad but I already knew this because Karma already figured it out because he was trying to contact and track me but I took out my com battery. "I'm trying to be all nonchalant here but-" Dick was cut off.
        "Why? Be as chalant as you like," said flirts Zatanna.
        "Great we have another Robin," I joke.
        "Look we are just trying to get a handle on your powers could you teleport us to Tornado? Or Morrow to a cell? Or force his bots to surrender?" questions Artemis.
        "Or create peace on Earth for all time? Zatara couldn't even do all that and I'm no way near his level. I need to know a spell cold and I also have to have time to prep it, plus all magic requires energy which has to come from within I can't just make the impossible happen at will," she explains.
         "What's our ETA to Yellowstone? I'm way past ready to stuff Tornado into a trash compactor," said Conner like he was going to blow.
        "Are you sure he even betrayed us?" I ask queasily.
        "Are you?" he retorts.
        "I don't think he did," I say.
        "And even so that makes him victim to his creator's programming. Surely he deserves the chance to prove that he is not the weapon his creator desired him to be," said Aqualad with truth and Conner shut his mouth in thought. We finally land and Aqualad commands stealth mode.
        "I recommend you stay behind," he told Zatanna.
        "Is that an order?" she retorts.
        "No, you must do as you see fit," he answers.
        "Good," she replies saying some spell that I'm too lazy to type out changing her clothes. We start running and I disappear into the shadows just in case. I block a huge gust of wind that would have winded the team (I'm sorry I'm feeling punny) and I also look up to see RT. A bunch of other tornados surround us, damn he is way too advanced in tornados. I am well rounded so my powers aren't excellent in one thing, he has mastered tornados, I think to myself trying to counter the tornados. "Why Tornado? Why are you doing this?" yells Megan and I got down on one knee trying to hold all of them back. "Message received?" asks Megan putting the mind link up.
        "Who cares? Squad nail him," hollers Conner and I push all the wind away long enough for them to do a maneuver but Aqualad just got hit. I redirect a wind current when Artemis's arrows come back at her, I was really getting a workout.         "That's it red you're not the only spin doctor here," said Wally and I enhance his tornado but Megan was thrown into him. It was only Zatanna and I left standing, well not 'knocked out' yet. She went down and then Tornado hit me from all directions and I'll be honest it hurt a lot but I fake my consciousness as well. The other robot looks right through the plan though and rocks came flying our way. "KATE!" yells Robin.
        "Calm down don't get your panties in a knot," I tease directing them all away from us but the attack from Tornado took its toll and I fell down to one knee. "Zatanna?" aska Robin concerned.
        "I'm good but Red Tornado is getting away," she said.
        "Is he abandoning us?" questions Artemis.
        "I don't believe that," refuses Megan. I'm so happy they worried about me, I think to myself so they didn't hear while I save Artemis and Aqualad from a huge hole. "Fire fist," I say flying up. He grabs my fist and hit my gut and then threw me down and Dick caught me.
        "Tornado's memory files and my superior processing speed allow me to anticipate your every move," he brags as he dodges my wind slice. Zatanna blinds him, "he never knew my moves," she declares.
        "And I bet you have some good ones," said Dick smiling like a goofball.
        "That came out so Wally," I sigh getting my shadow scythe.
        "It's ok I don't mind," flirts Zatanna. Lava starts spilling everywhere.
        "He's activating a stage two eruption. If he gets to stage three kiss the hemisphere goodbye," panics Wally.
        "Hit him from all sides," directs Aqualad.
        "Water torrent," I yell going for the K.O but he turned the water into obsidian by countering with extremely hot lava. My hands were now glued together with obsidian and Wally just got Megan back when a blast of water hit lava bot and sent him flying. "Nice hit Kate," smiles Dick.
        "It was not me," I say and then Aqualad points at one of the other sibling robots. They all start attacking the lava bot and pin him in the lava, even tornado but Conner grabs him before he melts with his siblings. We were now on a stage three eruption and the only option was to send it into space. "Conner my hands now!" I say and he punches so hard but my hands would not come free. "I don't have time for this," I say out loud flying up anyway. We end up creating a huge tornado that was a mix of reds and blues. I bring Tornado back to Earth where we collapse in exhaustion. "Are you okay?" asks Robin kneeling beside me as I took deep breaths.
        "Yea but when we get back I'm taking a thirteen-hour nap," I yawn rolling on my side and realize that the obsidian was never removed. We went inside and fixed Tornado. "There that should be better," said Robin finishing repairs.
        "Yes I can speak again," he replies.
        "You were willing to sacrifice yourself to save the planet," said Aqualad.
        "The planet would have survived and it was humanity that was saved though not by me. My sister and brother were the true heroes today and Kate was of much help," he replies.
        "My point is this you were never the mole never a traitor," he said.
        "No, I left to protect you from further attack and to find my creator Morrow," he explains.
        "Why did you even become our den mother?" questions Conner after Tornado claims that he did not need to be repaired after Robin offers. "Because I was the logical choice, I require no sleep and I have no secret identity or second life to live," he states.
        "But you do have advanced AI programming designed to learn and adapt to learn," adds Wally playing with a robot hand.
        "Hello Megan you wanted to become more human," said Megan slapping her head.
        "And you can't do that with the league because they're stiffs," I say.
        "You're sure not going to learn emotion from Batman trust me," smirks Dick.
        "Then the cave was not only a proving ground for us but you as well," realizes Artemis.
        "I do not know if these statements are accurate but perhaps they are true and if I understand the term correctly I believe I have come to care about you all," he admits.
        "See practically a meat bag already," states Conner.
        "Which reminds me," he said not bothering to continue his statement. We start to fly back in silence.
        "Are we ever going to get these things off of me?" I ask dizzily.
        "We can not remove obsidian without bringing harm to you so Karma will have to do it," said Aqualad.
        "So good kidnapping?" questions Robin.
        "Best ever," Zatanna smiles.
        "One of many I hope," said Robin.
        "Yea that's if my dad doesn't ground me for life," she sighs.
        "Well you are grounded for life and I hope you had fun on your little adventure because that little stunt has Batman pissed," said Karma popping out of some shadows.
        "How long have you been following us?" I groan trying to stand but failing.
        "Since you went on your 'tour'," he smirks shattering the obsidian that held my wrists. 
          "I not that mad though because you did something very interesting tonight Kate," he said and everyone turns to look at me.
        "What?" I groan getting concerned.
        "Your hands were glued together yet you controlled a massive tornado with nothing but your mind," he said and the realization hit me like an elbow to the head.
        "She used her mind," said Wally finally catching on.
