"Camping" Part 2

WARNING: Dark, Guns, Emotional, Bad Language, Blood, Gore

Artemis fell to the ground, clutching the wound in her abdomen, pain coursing through her. 

Robin turned around, watching Artemis fall to the ground.

His eyes quickly turned to find the shooter.

THERE!

Robin quickly melting into the shadows so that he could get away.

This shooter wasn't going to get away.

Robin promised that. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wally, fighting off some goons, saw it happen.

He heard the gunshot and then immediately turned to see the bullet go through the air slowly.

Wally realized that he couldn't take down the goons and save Artemis in time. 

He just wan't that fast yet.

Wally had to literately choose between his team mate and the mission.

Batman's rules suck.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aqualad was swamped with goons trying to overthrow him in a fight.

When he heard the gunshot, he immediately stopped.

With the intention to go and see what had happened, Aqualad forgot the most basic rule of hero'ing. 

Never turn your back on an opponent. 

The goons immediately took advantage, several jumping on his back to bring him crashing to the ground.

Superboy was in a similar situation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Megan gasped as the bullet went in.

Since she was connected with all of them, she could feel all their pain and emotions. 

Miss Martian dropped to the ground, clutching at the non-existent wound on herself. 

Then, she felt the mother of all fury coursing though her. 

And then she fell into darkness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well trained eyes followed the shooter from the treetops.  

He just had to wait for the perfect time. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Robin, meanwhile, ran through the shadows, catching up to the shooter quickly. 

He threw a perfectly aimed birdarang that hit a tree about an half inch beside the shooter's head. 

He meant business.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Red Arrow ran, watching Robin, knowing that he had the shooter's position.

Artemis may be his replacement, but he wasn't going to let her shooter get free.

Red Arrow readied one of his arrows, pulling back the tight string of his bow. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"ARRRR!" Superboy yelled as he knocked all the goons off of him. 

Artemis.

He had to help her. 

She needed medical attention.
