Miss Martian sat up in the desert, muttering to herself in her native tongue in confusion as she did not know where she was for a few moments until she realized that she was on Earth. "But how did I get to Earth? And why am I wearing this costume? And why does my head hurt so much?" She fell down the sand dune, landing in a heap at the bottom. "Is this a dream?"

A plume of dust exploded a few yards away from her, startling her as she watched the dust settle. There stood Superboy, panting with a look of rage on his face. She looked down at his chest, noticing the Super symbol on his chest, asking if he was Superman. Superboy screamed, ripping his shirt before diving at her. Miss Martian dove out of the way. She flew into the air to avoid his attacks, watching as he leapt away. She lowered herself to the ground, cradling herself. "Not a dream...a nightmare."

Miss Martian started to fly through the air after shaking off the dreadful feeling of almost being killed, deciding to relish in the idea of being on Earth. She flew over the desert, trying her best to remember how she got to Earth before deciding to meditate on it. Memories flashed in her mind.

"Good idea. Go."

"Be careful."

"Careful Superboy! They're hot."

"Not as hot as you babe."

"Thanks, Wally. That's, uh, sweet."

"Not as sweet as you, sugar."

"Oh, grow up!"

"Team, report to the mission room."

"I'm on a team! I have friends!" Miss Martian cried out in excitement. "I need to find them."

She suddenly felt a cry of anguish, following it to find Superboy attacking tanks and Wally speeding away with Artemis in his arms. She felt torn but decided to help Artemis and Wally when she saw two drones fly after them, knowing Superboy could hold his own. She flew after them, letting them know she was almost there. She smashed the two drones together before lowering herself in front of the two.

"Well, J'onn, the costume is familiar...but I'm not sure the new bod screams Manhunter." Wally joked.

"You know my uncle J'onn? Hello, Megan! Of course you do."

"Wait, wait, wait! Martian Manhunter is your uncle? Is that how you know my name?" Wally looked confused.

"Your name's really Wally?" Artemis looked shocked.

"Its okay, we're teammates! Friends. I made you cookies." Miss Martian assured them. She sighed when she got blank looks in return. "You both lost your memories too. Come on, I'll fill you in as we go. Robin and Superboy need our help."

"Of course, Robin and Super...what now?"

By nightfall they had discovered Robin taking on Bialyan forces near a device and came to his aid, jumping into the fray with him. He looked confused but welcomed the help as Wally sped around collecting guns and punching the armed men and Miss Martian used her telekinesis to take them down. Artemis shot a man with an arrow that exploded into a net, rendering him captured.

"KF! Man is it good to see a familiar face." Robin high fived Wally.

"Hey, Rob. Memory loss?" Wally greeted him.

"Six months. Let's hog tie these creeps and compare notes." After doing just that, the four of them gathered a few yards away from the soldiers to talk things over. "So, we're a team?"
