"What?" Marie's eyes widen. "Are you insane? Those kids, on a what a superhero team? Those kids don't even know what team means. Their the kids that would say that there isn't an 'I' in team, but there is a 'me'."

"You see this is what I'm talking about." Dick laughs gesturing to Marie. "You always see the worst in those kids. And I know I'm guilty of seeing the worst in Alya as well. And I don't mean now, I don't think that they should be a team just yet, they all have a long way to go, but I think just letting those kids waste their potential is wrong. Especially that kid that Phoenix is training, she's been trying to get him to join the team, but he keeps refusing. Because of one person..."

Marie gave him a confused look, "What? Alya wouldn't tell him not to. "

Dick exhaled, bowing his head, cutting her off. "It isn't because Alya didn't tell him not to. Phoenix says he doesn't want to take the one thing that Alya has with you away."

"W-what, how would his being there stop Alya and I from being together?" Marie questioned, "And to think these kids are geniuses. He should join the team if wants, he's an idiot to think that he shouldn't because of Alya and me. It's not like Alya would leave me to hang out with him in the cave. She didn't even like the kid, until last week."

Dick gave Marie a look, "You think that Alya would choose you over someone who has she has way more talk to about, same school, same age and grade, the same level of experience, same superintelligence, and got their powers the exact way? All you have in common with her is your last name."

"Alright, I see your point," Marie muttered. "But he should take her away from me, James is a very social person, he'll make friends with the rest of the team, and he'll get Alya to talk to them. That's how Alya got to meet Aidan and Elle. Through James and Sam."

Marie and Dick had been watching movies all day, they sat on the couch with Marie leaning against him, and with Dick having his arm around her. The two heroes had fallen asleep, after the third movie. But Dick was woken up when a knock came at the front door.

Dick looked at a sleeping Marie, and then at the front door. He decided that he would answer the door, not wanting to wake up his sleeping girlfriend. He carefully got out from under Marie and made his way to answer the door. When he answered the door, a teenage boy was standing in the doorway.

"Who the fuck are you?" James questioned the man.

"I could ask you the same question." Dick retorts, of course, he knew this was James, but he wasn't going to tell this kid that. "What are you doing here?"

"I'm looking for Alya Jordan, she hasn't been answering my phone calls, and neither was her cousin," James told him. " I'm just concern, I heard something, and I wanted to make sure it isn't true."

"Damn it Phoenix," Dick muttered under his breath before he lets out a sigh. He pushes the door open and steps aside for James to come. "Marie's inside, she's asleep."

"So you're telling me that Alya has been kidnapped, and you're just sitting at home, watching Star Wars?" James asked slowly with misbelief.

"Well, I was sleeping," Marie grumbled, rubbing her eyes. Dick had woken her up after he let James into the apartment. Dick told her that he was going to go wait in her room, while she talked to James in private. "But James we're doing everything we can to find Alya. You just so happen to come on the one day that I'm not. But I promise you that the team is working tirelessly. We already have a plan to get them back."
