Location: Hall of Justice Date: April 1st 2017 Time: 16:00 Rueben was excited, floating around she made her way to a place she was sure she would find the one person she wanted to meet. The last time she had been out and about She met two members of the team that Carol was telling her about and now she was going to join that team. She had to find the one known as Phantom and tell him the good news. After all it was because of him that she intervened with the fight between bane and the other two superheroes. Landing in the park she looked around. She was very unsure how to find this boy and she thought that starting in Washington D.C. was the place to start. She knew that Washington D.C. was the capital of the world, it held the NATO and other things like Hall of Justice. So the girl pulled off her ring and placed it in her pocket. She was now wearing black skinny jeans with a pink tank top and white sneakers. Walking in to the Hall of Justice the girl was approached by a young woman. "Welcome to the Hall of Justice, I'm Sandy how can we help you?" Rueben cocked her head in confusion. "I wish to speak to Phantom." The woman nodded and smiled. "Well sweetie the heroes are not here, this is simply a museum, sure the heroes might come here for a time but they do not always stay here." Rueben frowned and nodded. "Alright, Might i just look around then?" The woman nodded, and Rueben walked away. Finding her way up to some of the statues of the league she looked up at them and smiled at the green lanterns. If it wasn't for the green lanterns the Stars would be kidnapping their loves and holding them captive. Phantom

Blake was walking around the city. He was wearing black slacks, black t-shirt, and black shoes. The boy was trying to blend into the urban environment. With his hands in his pockets, Phantom kept his head on a slight pivot, observing his surroundings as he walked around the museum. "And here, we see the statues of the original members of the Justice league," the tour guide said to the group. Seeing his que, Blake broke off from the group and headed down a small path. "Who am I looking for again?... Yes, I know that... but I'm not seeing anybody with that description.... I'll just get a bird's eye view I guess."
Watching closely for any stragglers, the ninja took a few steps up the side of the wall before jumping off of it and grabbed a lip on a wall. He hoisted himself up the ledge and crept through the window. He did a quick double take to make sure nobody saw him before continuing through the glass. He felt the side of his legs just to make sure that his combat knives were still there. He scanned the area, looking for his target. "Come on, where are you?" he whispered to himself. The boy didn't feel comfortable sneaking around in his civilian clothes, but he didn't want anybody to know that he was here.

Turning away from the statues the girl walked alone for a while, she noticed the people and the groups. In one group a man stood next to a girl and she could tell that the two were in love with each other. This put a smile on Ruebens face, she was one who loved love. Making her way up the hall and around to a stair case she made her way up to the next floor. The girl stopped at the top of the stairs, in front of her was a picture of the Young Justice Team In the middle was Aqualad, on his right Miss Martian, Superboy Kid Flash, on his left was Robin and Artimes, and Zatanna. She smiled, a team this great was one she wanted to be on.
Turning to the right she made her way down the hall. It wasn't long before she realized she was the only one on the second floor. Smiling the girl ran her hand along the wall, looking at all the pictures she couldn't wait to be in one herself. Looking up she saw a man jump up to the floor,lightly she placed her hand on her pocket, feeling her ring she smiled and walked towards the guy. Something was off about this and she was going to figure out what.

Blake saw the girl looking at him. He stared back, trying to think of something to justify his actions. "I... er.... I dropped my quarter over here." He pretended to pick up his "quarter" then got back down a little bit faster. He dug into his pocket and luckily found a coin. It was a nickel, but hopefully it would be enough to trick her. She looked familiar but he couldn't quite figure out how or why. The boy was flipping his "quarter" with his thumb as he walked away. Taking a quick double take, Phantom was nervous she was suspecting something.
After walking away a little bit, the boy checked around, giving a small sigh, he walked back to the girl. He couldn't figure out why she was familiar, but he would find out. "Hey, I'm Blake," he said, giving her a smile. The ninja extended his hand out for a shake. "Do I know you from somewhere?"
Blake walked back towards the group. He stayed close enough to the group to not look like a straggler, but far enough away, that the rest of the group would not be able to listen to him talk.

The boy seemed to catch on to her and that made the girl sigh a little on the inside, part of her was hoping she could investigate a little like the hero she wanted to be, but it seems like she would have to try again some other time. seeing that she was still a trainee she didn't let it bug her too much. "Those sound like tricky things. People are always dropping them." Rueben was still knew to earth money and she did notice that coins were hard for people to hold on to, mostly the little copper ones everyone seemed to drop those, luckily the girl had no problem holding on to them. Rueben found that pennies were actually pretty cool and she had started collecting them. It wasn't even after the short meeting the boy walked away.
That was not really a reaction Rue was use to, most of the time she had people ask her if she was a model of some sort and she would end up shaking her head no. Although she did have an offer to become one which she wasn't sure what to do but accept so she had a meeting with a man in a few days to sign up for a thing called a "job". Looking at a near by statue the boy had walked up to her and introduced himself. "I'm Rueben. Its a pleasure to meet you Blake." When he spoke of knowing her the girl was about to tell him that it was unlikely they have met because she had just moved here from Zameron. "I wouldn't know, I just moved her from..uh...France." The girl smiled, hopefully he would buy it, though she did feel bad about lying to him.
As he walked away again the girl was a bit confused so she followed next to him. She wasn't sure if he wanted to talk to her or not, but if he didn't she would just walk down the stairs when they passed them. She didn't want to seem to...creepy.. that was the word humans used to describe someone who was doing things that were out of the normal.

Blake was following the group as one when he got a call on his earpiece. He pressed the button on the headset and whispered "Go ahead....... Understood." Taking a quick look, around, the ninja darted around a corner. He went to a vent in an unoccupied hall and pulled out his suit and gear. Doing a quick change, Phantom took off, going outside the museum. A man stood outside waving a gun around. "I want to see the Justice League protect you all from me!" he said. Clearly the man didn't understand how the league worked. Still, there were people outside that were scared because of the gunman. He pointed his weapon at a mother with two kids as she shielded them with her body. Phantom threw a throwing knife at the man's arm, knocking the weapon out of his hand. Jumping down from the building, the boy ran over to the man as he drew his blade.
"Who do you think you are?" the man yelled as he picked up the weapon and fired at the ninja. Blake defected several bullets with his blade. Throwing a rope dart, it wrapped around the man's leg. Blake applied tension to the cord, causing the man to fall onto his back. Stepping on the man's chest, Phantom put his sword to the man's neck. "Never mess with a ghost." he said. Rolling the man onto his front, the ninja used his rope dart to tie up the criminal's hands and feet. "Thank you... err..." the lady said. "Phantom" Blake replied as he sheathed his blade. As he turned to go, the man let out a little laugh. "my friend should be set to go by now," Blake gave him a look of confusion. With a smirk on the man's face, his eyes went wide. "Boom," he laughed. Blake tried to remain calm as he realized, there was a bomb somewhere inside the museum.

Rueben watched the man take off, then she heard about the happenings out side but before she could do anything her ring beeped inside her pocket. Pulling out of her pocket and walking down the hall that blake had been in, pulling on the ring the girl's outfit quickly changed to something more revealing then normal. Something was going on and she was going to find out what. Flying out of the hall and in to the middle of the museum the girl floated looking over everyone. A few guys whistled and some women covered there kids eyes. It wasn't that she was naked oh heavens no, she was just in what some people would think was inappropriate.
Spotting a man setting something up the girl landed next to him. "Earthling, are you threatening to harm others, This is not acceptable. Disable your weapon or I will use force." The man looked up and laughed at her. "A hooker trying to play hero, how cute." Sadly the girl had no idea what a hooker was. The man pulled out a gun and pointed it at her, he then shot at her, though the girl raised her ring and made shields out of them this caused the bullets to spring away and hit a wall. Ruben then smacked the guy with the pink shield sending him flying and smacking a wall knocking him out. Looking at the bomb it was set to go off in 5 minuets. Taking the bomb in a force field the girl flew out side and looked at phantom. It was their that it clicked. "Phantom? I'v been looking for you." Turining back to the bomb the girl took off in to the air the bomb floating in a bubble in font of her.

Phantom looked at the girl flying above. He recognized the pink glow from before. It was the girl that he saw back at Santa Prisco. He gave a slightly confused look when she said she was looking for him. The look was soon replaced with a smile, however, since he was also glad to see his friend. He gave a slight blush while looking at the girl, he was just glad that his mask covered his cheeks. The ninja gave a saluting wave to his ally. The tied up man gave a two toned whistle at the girl. The gesture was quickly met with a kick to the head by the woman.
After the authorities arrested the man, the boy went back inside the museum. He waited for the Star Sapphire to come inside to talk to her. Several people gave him an odd look for standing in his ninja suit, a few others applauded him and wanted to take his picture. After a few pictures, he started brushing people away. To help get away from the people, Phantom went into the hallway that he changed in and waited. To help pass the time, the ninja sat down, cross-legged and started to meditate.

The girl dashed though the sky and out into outer space where she let the bomb blow up safely away from anyone. When she came back down to the museum people looked at her weird, they were unsure of who she was and knew that the first time they saw that symbol it was from a villain. It was true that in the past the Stars were not the best of people but now they had changed thanks to Carol Ferris. Landing on the ground a small girl ran up to her and hugged her. "Thank you so much for helping that man save us." the woman looked down at the girl smiled brightly, she felt much love from this child. Hugging the child back the star spoke "Thank you for giving me a chance little one. Now have you seen the man that was out here, I'm looking for him." The girl nodded and pointed in to the museum, with a thank you the star flew back in to the museum where she was greeted by everyone. She was really unsure what to do, everyone was clapping and telling her thank you. This was one thing they didn't teach you in Zameron.
"I would love to stay and speak about things but I must find Phantom, I have news to tell him." Floating up the star landed on the second floor of the building. She then walked in to the hall where the boy was sitting. "Blake." Her voice was filled with happiness she waited all day to find this hero and it turned out he was next to her the whole time. That was the thing about secret identities they always kept people in the dark. Walking up to the boy she lightly pulled her ring off, the pink suit vanished she was back in her civilian clothes.

Phantom looked up to see who was calling him. It was the star sapphire. "How did she know my name?" he thought to himself. After watching her take off the ring, it clicked. He told it to her back in the museum. Standing up and folding his arms, he gave the girl a smirk. "You're not from France, are you, Rueben?" He joked. The boy then preceded to take off his suit, his civilian clothes were underneath. Putting his gear back in the vent, he closed the grate and started to walk back to the tour group. "So, you were looking for me?" he asked. He started to put on a necklace as he headed back towards the group. The silver necklace had a cross with a skull sitting on top of it.
The group has already neared the end of the tour as the guide was showing them the gift shop. The boy went inside to look around. While most of it was just little nicknacks, there were a couple things that caught his interest. Looking at his friend, "Do you see anything you like?"

Rueben smiled and shook her head. "No, I'm not from France. I'm from a Planet far away." She was extremely happy that she found the friend she had been looking for. As he changed she wondered why he was putting his gear in a vent and why he didn't take it with him some how, though the girl didn't question it for long. "I was looking for you, I have some very good news to tell you. Seeing you are my friend, I thought I would tell you first." The boy was her only friend at the moment, and as she followed him to his group she smiled the same smile she did when she first saw him outside. "I do think this conversation would be better not around humans, I mean people." The girl turned red in frustration. she was trying so hard to be human that sometimes it just didnt work out for her.
When they got in to the gift shop she looked around but she really didnt know what anything was so she just shook her head no. "No thank-you." As she looked around she picked up a small fluffy bear in a wonder woman costume. It was soft and plushy and she thought it was adorable, though she set it down and looked at some other stuff.

Acknowledging her request, the boy purchased a couple of items he saw, including a cologne called "Smell of Justice." Walking out of the gift shop, Blake started to head down the steps of the museum. He looked around to make sure that nobody else was within earshot. "You had something you needed to tell me?" He asked. The boy stopped near a wall and leaned against it, putting his right foot on the wall. He took this natural stance while in civilian clothes just in case somebody came after him or somebody else, he could use the wall as a launching pad.
Keeping his hands near his sides, his thumbs in his pockets, Phantom was able to hold the bag of souvenirs with his arms while looking at his friend. He was curious what she wanted to tell him. There were a couple of things he wanted to say as well, but not quite sure how to word it without sounding awkward or stupid. Phantom has no problem talking to girls, Blake on the other hand, it's a different case. Even if they are friends, he never really knew how to talk to girls from earth, let alone ones from a different world.

Rue followed him, and as they got to the street and he leaned against the wall she smiled, taking a deep breath the girl began to speak. "Well I was accepted to join the team. I know that they only saw me fight once but Carol told me that they agreed to have me on the team and so now i get to be a hero like the rest of the team." Hugging the boy she smiled, she was so excited that she couldn't hide it. Most people would think that joining a team was something cool and wouldn't say much about it, but Rueben she was a bundle of joy and she was going to be extremely excited to show that she was apart of a team that was changing the world.
Pulling away from the boy she looked at him. "I get to go to the watchtower soon, and meet the rest of the team." She couldn't wait to meet the others. "I thought that perhaps you could go with me that day so I wont be alone meeting strange heroes, I mean I know that sounds funny, I'm a star sapphire why should i be nervous about meeting new people but I am. What if the others don't like me." The girl spoke finally taking a breath.

The hug caught him by surprise and made him blush bright red. Getting his senses back together, he listened to the girl ramble. Blake just gave a smirk and shook his head at the girl. "Rueben... Rueben.... Rueben!" He said, grabbing her at the shoulders. "You will be fine. Of course, I will go with you, and the others will love you," he said, looking her in the eyes. Reaching into the bag, the boy pulled out the Wonder Woman bear. "Here, a congratulatory gift," he said with a smile, handing her the bear. "I saw you looking at it earlier."
It would be good to have a friend in the team with him. While he gets along with most of the other members, there aren't very many that he is particularly fond of. "So, what are you going to do after you meet the team?" he asked. The boy kept his hands deep in his pockets as he walked with the girl.

Once he got her attention she stopped speaking and listened to him. He reassured her that everything was going to be fine and that the team would love her. This made the girl smile, and once he pulled the bare out she blushed a little."Thank you Blake, your the best friend a girl could have." Taking it in her hand she hugged it lightly as they walked down the street,. He did ask a good question, she didnt know what she was going to do after she met the team. Some thoughts of going to Zameron and speaking with her sisters crossed her mind but that was a long trip, a weeks trip and that was with out stopping.
"I don't know." The girl smiled, "Seeing my sisters is a week of travel and that's without stopping." The girl looked at him. She was unsure of what to do and what was going to happen next. Holding on to the bear she smiled. "Perhaps something fun will happen, like we will get a mission and we can work together again. I really liked working with you and Superboy. I just hope I can learn a bit before we work again. I'v never really worked with others, well I'v worked with the stars and with some of the green lanterns but never on a team." the girl started to babble again.
