Percy's POV

Percy's eyes shot open and she sat up. Where is she? Why is she in the middle of a desert? Is this another of Wally's cruel jokes? (Don't ask)

She glanced down at her own clothes. Who the fudge put her in her suit? And why is it black and gray instead of blue and black?

Also, where is Dick?

That thought made Percy panic. Never before, has she and Dick separated without either of them notifying the other. She quickly pulls out her holographic computer to see if maybe Dick had texted her.

Nothing.

"Okay, Percy, don't panic." She told herself as she stood and dust herself up. "Maybe this is the work of the gods, maybe this is a punishment for spamming them too much..." But it didn't feel like that. Something felt missing. Percy scratched her head. Why can't she remember where is she? Why is there a big chunk of her memories missing?

Percy turned her attention back to her screen and pulled up a map of her current location.

She was in Bialya, freaking Bialya. The nest of a tyrant by the name of Queen Bee. Oh, how she hated that woman.

But why would she be at Bialya in-

"September?!" She exclaimed. "What happened to March?!" She reached for her earpiece, only to find it missing. Great, just her luck. Curse you, Fates!

Percy sighed. Well, better look around. No point in staying put and waiting for the enemies to find her.

She walked aimlessly in the desert.

"Wish there are some sort of clues of why I am here..." Percy muttered, then she stopped.

"Ahh, I'm being a seaweed brain again! That's what my computer is for." She pulls up the holographic screen again and dug through anything that would help with her current situation. Like...

"A GPS mark- No, wait, two." She said with surprise. "And one of them is moving..." Percy squinted at the tiny red dot moving on the map. "...towards me?" She looked behind her just in time to see a figure crashing into her.

"Tidal!" Dick cried as he tacked Percy to the ground. "You're here! I was so worried!"

"Robin?" Percy pushed Dick off of her and sat up. "You're here too? What happened?"

"No idea," the Boy Wonder answered, pushing himself up from the ground. He offered a hand to Percy and pulled her up. "somehow I've lost the memories for the last three months. But I remember something about Batman telling us to maintain radio silence."

"Oh, so that's why no one has reached out to us yet?"

"No, I don't think it's that...Speaking of which, where is your earpiece?" Percy shrugged.

"I don't know, it was gone when I woke up."

Dick sighed and reached into his pouch, he pulled out another one and handed it to Percy. "Here, I have a spare." Percy took the spare earpiece and put it in her ear.

"Thanks. Now, what do we do next?"

"Well," Dick rubbed his neck uncomfortably. "We should probably compare notes on what we have so far." He took out a piece of black cloth and handed it to Percy.

"I found this not far from where I woke. Thought it to be strange to have a superman symbol in the middle of a superhuman-hated country."

"Huh," Percy turned the fabric in her hands and studied the red superman symbol on it. "It looks like it had been ripped off of a shirt, by hand." She turned to Dick. "Meta, do you think?"
