"Such a Fooled Heart" [1/?]

[anonymous]

Her artillery of trick arrows took care of the gigantic, orange-feathered and weirdass bird things that shoved her around a mile back, but now she was left with just her crossbow's pre-loaded arrows.

Artemis scaled up the length of this rocky cliff, and swallowed back a gag as the filthy bog below her let out a whiff of something foul.

If it had to be compared to something, it would be what old, sweat-crusted gym socks smelled like when they were ducked in milk expired by a few years. There would be no possible way to wash out that stench if she fell in.

Her hands clawed desperately for purchase of the rock slide as one of her boots caught between two slippery rocks, squeezing her toes within her boot uncomfortably.

Fighting off another rush of vertigo as she gazed over her shoulder at the drop, and definitely trying not to focus on the noxious fumes, Artemis abandoned her trapped boot and pushed on - thankful to discover smoother footing.

Not more than a couple feet, Mad Hatter howled out "Nonononoooo!" and crawled over to collect the broken pieces of his newest invention. He let out a long, tortured sob, glaring outright at her until Artemis's combat boot hit him square in the gut, forcing a groaning "Ohh~…" before she punched him out cold with her balled up right fist, snapping his head back and allowing him to crumple.

That's right. Hallucination. A big, whopping mindtrip around Gotham. Kid Flash had been missing a few hours and she-…

…shit.

Artemis raced across the other end of the building's rooftop, kneepads cushioning her as she grabbed a motionless Wally, maneuvering him onto his back. Yanking back both of their cowls and the Kid Flash goggles, her fingertips touched cooling sweat on his nose and lips fading to ashy blue. No air pulling or escaping.
