"There you are! I've been looking all over for you! The rest of the team already left!" Artemis' exasperation was all too familiar as Rachel continued to train on the simulated grunts she was fighting, weaving in between them and striking them with very precise movements. "I can't believe you're late on your first day, Shadow."

The young heroine known as Shadow grunted as she whipped around to kick another virtual bad guy in the jaw. "I was early, actually. I left you a message." She replied flatly, ducking underneath a jab and countering with an uppercut to her opponent's chin. The simulation ended and Rachel headed right for the bench where she had left her duffel bag of clothes and fished out a towel, wiping off her sweat while her mentor checked her phone.

"So you did." Artemis sighed, smacking her head in resignation. It wasn't often that the archer would slip up like that. She must have been more nervous than Rachel was about her joining the team. In fact, the former assassin was anticipating hearing another lecture on how she would have to try to get along and they wouldn't reveal her past until the team was ready. Frankly, if a bunch of teenage upstarts couldn't look past her history from day one, she doubted they would do so after any amount time anyway. Still, she didn't bother arguing with Artemis - the "big shots" had all agreed it was time for her to work with equals with less supervision.

She grabbed her bag and headed out of the Hall of Justice's gym, shaking her head as Artemis led the way to the zeta tubes. "You know, they're going to find out sooner or later. I really don't know if hiding it will make them trust me any more when they finally do. People tend to take secrets personally. Especially when they're superheroes." Rachel started on the topic before Artemis could nag at her again.

"I know, but Batman decided it was for the best. Besides, they'll probably try to earn your trust and make friends with you and we all know how much you dislike that." Artemis replied with a chuckle. She scanned her palm and a bright flash of light later, they were in the Young Justice's new headquarters. "Cosy." Rachel commented monotonously as she followed Artemis in search of the rest. It didn't take them long, really, they were all in the kitchen.

"Here's a latecomer to the party. her name is-"

"I'm Shadow." Rachel interrupted, shooting her mentor a glare. The times when they treated her like a baby could get irritating. "Rachel, for those who buy into the don't-use-superhero-names-when-we're-alone thing." She dropped her duffel bag in the corner and sat herself on one of the stools, waiting for the next instruction. Would they be picking rooms? Had they already toured the house? She observed her future teammates from the corner of her eye, sizing them up. The yellow dude was obviously the new Kid Flash, she really didn't recognise anyone else though, not having been in isolation so long.

"Nice to meet you all, I suppose."
