Rolling her eyes at Nathan, she grabbed pizza from the table and began to eat, scooting to the other side of the booth and grabbing out her phone. She pulled up Clarence's number and began to type with one hand. Come to the pizza parlor, dude. KF, Karen and I are waiting for you! Oh, and maybe Ranger. The girl wasn't hard to recognize, at least not for Robin, since she'd seen her face before. Actually, she knew the identities of everyone on the team, whether or not they wanted them out there. "We're strictly friends. Besides, romance would get in the way of the job. If something were to happen to one of them, anyway." She gestured towards KF and pretended to cut her throat, implying something about Wally, no doubt. And it was sort of ironic, seeing him with the archer's protege. Well, not Artemis' protege... but she was an archer, or used to be. Artemis hadn't quit her quiet hero work though, mostly working as Tigress undercover for Batman. Or spending time with her child (rarely) which Robin and KF were explicitly told to keep under wraps, maybe that's why she never took on her own protege. Not like she was ever at home. Robin, who'd worked with the blonde before, knew she would have made an excellent teacher. At least one that didn't take any bullshit, and Robin liked that in a person. Maybe it was from being around her dad so long.

Maybe it was foreshadowing.

Eh, who cares. "I'm sure seeing your loved one in peril isn't as fun as it sounds. Anyway, you-know-who would kill me if I ever had a boyfriend. I'd have my feathers plucked and be someones Christmas dinner." Now that Ranger was here, she couldn't really remove her sunglasses. She kind of felt awkward wearing them at night time. And inside. "Though... maybe the punishment would be less severe if it was a girl instead. I can deal with that. I do dig blondes." She winked from behind the black glasses, a smirk on her face, implying she'd probably make a move on the Kryptonian if given the opportunity. At least she had more self control than a certain someone.

Clarence's phone rang, and he checked it. "Sweet, maybe she doesn't care that much about the failed test." He thought to himself, throwing together clothes to wear out, he couldn't go decked out in full magician gear could he? He put on Jeans, a nondescript green t-shirt, and a pair of Chuck Taylor's. He threw on his to-go backpack, and walked into the garage, He grabbed his keys from his pocket, and unlocked his car. He got his license a few weeks ago, and was the first person to get a registered car, fully legal for him to drive. Or at least he thought he was, he didn't think Nathan had his yet, nor did he think Karen was able to drive properly. It was an older two door sports car, not overly fast,but not slow either. It had four seats, but you had to collapse the front seats to let people in there.

It was a short drive, and in no time at all he pulled into the restaurant's parking lot, and locked the car, leaving his bag inside the car. He pushed his way in and slid down at the table next to Xavier, and across from Karen. "So how is everybody?" He asked smoothly.

Juliet watched the group out of her corner of her eye and then watched as he took his arm off of one of the girls then came over to sit by Juliet. She raised an eyebrow, this was either a bet of some sort, or he was just a horrendous flirt. "Hi....?" She said even more confused then before when he said it's you. What was he talking about? She narrowed her eyes, and dropped her hand off the table unnoticeable. It was slowly traveling to her boot ready to grab the dagger in her boot. He looked vaguely familiar, She wasn't quite sure what he was talking about. What was he babbling on about? Something about working together before, she never had a steady job and never had one in this town. So that only left on alternative. He was a Hero. He was "that one really fast kid".

Realization dawned onto Juliet's face and her hand came back up to the table. "Oh! You just flashed over here that I wasn't quite sure who it was," Juliet said her voice steady but unsure still. They held similar characteristics as the same build, same cocky attitude, same affinity to hit on anything that moved. She glanced over to the group and she realized he was here with a whole other group of heroes. She came to realize that she had worked with atleast all of them once. That was lucky coincendence. She looked back over to Nathaniel.

Karen smiled and giggled at what Xaviere said to her, but she soon put on a straight face, " Well I'm sorry to say this to you X but I'm not really a part of the girls only club, I'm more into the boys club." she told Xaviere, Karen grabbed her drink of coke a cola, and took a sip from it," Also it would go against the whole dating love ones thing remember. " Karen told her. " Also why do you have sunglasses on it's night and your in doors, what are you trying to look cool ?"

Karen started to look around, she looked out the window behind her to see the slow snow fall, she turned back around and looked to the nearly vacant pizza place seeing only her friends and a single person in the back of the restaurant, the smell of freshly cooked pizza filled the air of the room around her and everyone. Soon Karen's focus was on the person in the back, it was a grown man around his thirties, he was wearing a black pea coat that was open showing a green turtle neck, he had on a black skull cap and had roguish features on his face along with stubble that surrounded his jawline, the guy was eating a slice of pepperoni pizza off a plate and had more slices on the plate, he was looking at Karen then over to Nathan and soon to Juliet.

[Avenger]

"I can deal with that, too." Xaviere replied, sitting back. "The glasses are there because of identities remember? You-know-who always has rules about that." She crossed her arms, eyes drifting around and landing on the man in the back, eyes narrowing behind her glasses. "Also, I'd be less worried about your life as compared to someone like... Nathan. I mean, if he ever saw a pretty villain... he might just let himself get killed." Her tone became more hushed, glancing back at Karen in a sort of silent conversation. "Hey, Nathan. It's getting late, dude, we should head home. Tell your girlfriend bye." Something about this didn't feel quite right. It was common sense to leave as soon as possible.

[Demon Shinobi]

"Whatever." Nathaniel said laughing a bit before turning back to Juliet. "It was good seeing you off duty. You look good." He said in a genuinely nice tone before turning and walking back to the table. "Want me to run you back Xavier?" He asked calmly since he was supposed to be the only one who knew where the place was. "I can have you back in no time." He said calmly looked at the Pizza. "But we should at least wait for a bit so you can let Clarence know you don't hate him." He added eating the equivalent of a pie in various slices of the pizzas he ordered. He chuckled a bit. "Hurry before it's all gone." He then said smiling.

[Avenger]

"No, I can walk." She nudged him, subtly tilting her head in the direction of the guy in the back, clearly uneasy. "I'm all for riding you if you're into that, but I think we should all just walk together. We can bring the pizza and grab Clarence on the walk." Xaviere stood back up again. "Maybe Ra--Julie should come, too." Climbing off the seat and past Nathan, she felt tempted to call Batman, just so he could keep an eye on it, or in case something went wrong... But she'd also get in trouble. Damn Alfred, for not being a responsible guardian.

[Spriggs27]

Karen started to eat some slices of the pizza quickly and washed some of it down with her coke a cola," What's wrong gotta get home before the big man ? I wait you actually do sorry for the joke." Karen said sounding sincere, she didn't mean to be mean or insensitive, she stood up and brushed the small crumbs of the pizza off her lips." Yeah it's probably bout time we hit the snowy old trail and gone home." Karen said to them.

[BeatBox72]

Juliet smiled and winked to him as he left. "ya you too. See you around," Juliet said and went back to checking news reports. Nothing out of the ordinary going on. She looked up at the counter and realized they still didn't have her pizza done. She let out a huff of dissatisfaction. For being really good they were extraordinarily slow. She looked around the parlor and saw a man sitting in the back eating a small piece of Pizza. She sent a small text to Roy saying that the pizza was going to take longer than she thought and she wouldn't be home any time soon.She sat back in the chair and kicked her feet up on the table. She exited out of the news report and pulled out her head phones out and plugged them in.

[Demon Shinobi]

Nathaniel laughed a little at Xavier's little joke. "Come on let's head out. Karen you don't mind waiting for..." He asked ready to leave. His eyes then fell on Clarence... "Woah... You've gotta give yourself little more presence... Shouldn't a magician just be able to draw attention to himself?" He asked surprised at not noticing his friend was there. He laughed though. "Still. Eat some pizza. I paid for the food and drinks already. I'll walk Robin home." He added calmly. He paid little attention to the man. He didn't feel he needed to. Supergirl and Ranger could handle some random guy right. He was ready to go. He then turn and wave to Ranger. Even if she and Supergirl couldn't alone, with Clarence there, there wouldn't be a problem.

[J2]

He smiled, grabbing a peice of pizza and taking a large bite. "Just testing out my stealth skills, and are you running her home?" He asked in between bites. He nodded in Juliets direction. "Is that who I think it is?" He was almost sure it was Ranger, the new Archer.

[Spriggs27]

Alex, the guy in the back was finish eating his pizza afterwards he tossed his plate into the trash, and started walking towards the front to leave but the pizza store owner stopped him by yelling at him," Hey dude you gotta pay." The owner was standing right in front of the cash register and was to Alex's left, Alex looked over to the guy slowly with his hands in his pockets, Alex grabbed the owner by his head and slammed the owner's forehead onto the cash register breaking it and making it open, he reached into the register and grabbed a handful of bills. Alex then rushed out of the pizza place and into snow across the streets, he wasn't really trying to run away from them.

" Hey !!! You can't do that !! " Karen hopped up after seeing Alex just rob the place she had a feeling that something was gonna happen, she sped out the door after the thief wanting to help the store owner, she didn't really wait for any of the others to actually jump up after Alex, when she got outside and ran to the middle of the street she got caught up by a trap that was hidden in the snow, it caught her leg and dragged her to the top of a street light hanging her upside down." Crap this is just grand." she said to herself.

[J2]

Clarence saw the robbery start. He was unable to stop Supergirl from being trapped, but he could save her. "lrigrepus eerf." He spoke, and the trap undid itself, dropping Supergirl into the snow. "wohs flesruoy! " He screamed, the magical command spread out, it would be hard for the criminal to resist, but possible. As he spoke, his clothes changed into his normal Magicians garb.

[Demon Shinobi]

"Geez. It's always something." Nathaniel said though seeming to be glad there was a little action by the evident smirk on his face. "Come on Xavier we gotta help out our favorite pizza spot too" He did have his costume, but he didn't care. he ran out into the snow at a normal speed for a teenager such as himself and looked around. "Where..." He stopped and laughed seeing Supergirl in the trap and then falling to the ground. "Wow... Nice..." He said calmly. They'd laugh if he slipped up like that so it was okay right? Right? Whatever. Too late now. He joined his two friends pulling a mask out of his pocket and pulling it over his face. Even if the criminal knew who he was nobody would believe him, but if others saw it wouldn't be good.

[Spriggs27]

Alex took the money out from before and tossed it into the air making it rain slowly to the ground, He watched from across the street as two of the heroes came out of the pizza place, acting casual he pulled up his sleeve and looked at his watch to see that it was turning 1:00, he smiled but put his hand out," Wait before you guys come at me let the rest of your team gather up so the fight can be even, Nathaniel and Clarence." Alex told them both.

Karen landed on her back and slowly got up, she saw Alex standing across from both Nathan and Clarence, she balled up some snow and threw it at Alex's to his blind spot thinking she could take him down while her friends kept him distracted, when it gotten close to Alex he spun and dodged it and it hit a nearby parked car setting off it's car alarm system causing it to blare loudly." Crap !" she yelled, she got up and sprinted towards Alex but stopped when he put his hand up towards her," Not yet wait for Ranger and Robin. Karen." he told her.

[BeatBox72]

Juliet sighed as she watched the encounter go down. Of course, the one night a day she had off it gets trashed by some second hand villain trying to steal some pizza. She quickly pulled up her hoodie and then her half mask. She grabbed the dagger from her boot and turned out of the store running after them. She finally came across Supergirl struggling in the trap. She sniggered a bit and then looked at the man in the middle of the street, just standing there taunting them. She held the dagger in her hand ready to throw it at any given time. She didn't like him, there was something off about him. Not just steal a pizza off, like criminally insane off. Juliet let out a small huff of breath and got into her fighting position. She wouldn't be the first one to be taken out.

[Demon Shinobi]

Kid flash looked at the guy like he was nuts and then at his friends zzz "any of you know this guy?" He asked calmly. It was odd. The guy seemed to know all of them after all. So who was he? KF would have know. He had a photographic, and almost perfect memory. He would have picked up on it. Even if he only certain aspects of said indivivdual.

[Avenger]

Ugh, it was too cold for this. She knew they should've made the run for it when they had the option. Now, now that they knew he was stealing (and he seemed to know them, too, which made her uneasy) they couldn't very well let him get away with it. Man, was she going to get it from Bats when she turned him in. Breaking the "stay in your room because I'm pissed at you" rule wasn't a very good idea. Damn Alfred. "Who the hell are you supposed to be?" She wasn't happy with this situation, especially that he knew her, but she didn't know him. Did someone hack the league's files? Xaviere looked to KF, hoping, maybe he recognized him. "Let's just kick his ass and go home. Or we can do it the easy way and you can just turn yourself over and we'll let the league lock you up." She figured there was no use in denying the fact that she was Robin now, anyway.They needed to get their work done before anyone was alerted that this happened in the first place, even if it was just a "simple robbery". Police were just as un-fun to deal with as Batman. Well, maybe that was stretching it.

She pulled out her belt and put it around her waist, "Let's hurry this along."

[Spriggs27]

" Well the gang's all here, nice to see the new Robin, also you guys should be more quiet about what you talk about in public. and I highly doubt that I will turn my self in Robin. Well let's get cracking." Alex said to them. Alex cracked his knuckles and neck ready for a fight, before Ranger could draw her bow, he threw a small explosive her way and detonated it when it got close to her. When Karen tried to rush him, he pulled out his makeshift flamethrower and lit her jacket on fire before he kicked her to the ground. Alex tossed a smoke bomb at Nathaniel's feet making a large smoke cloud form around him, Alex dashed into the smoke cloud and started hitting Nathaniel from nearly all sides with his baton.

[J2]

"you know what they say, fight fire with fire." Clarence said with a chuckle, to himself, he readied a huge fireball. But then he saw the crook charge Nathaniel, and he knew that all a giant ball of fire would do was scorch Nathan. "etarepes meht!" He yelled, and the earth rocketed up, splitting the two fighters with a wall of Earth, the second he switched spells, the laws of gravity would switch in and pull the rock wall down, so he hoped it would give time for the rest of the crew to kick in to action. That much weight put a small strain on his body, so he knew he wouldn't be lifting any more rock walls around.
