"Something's going on, it smells like burning," said Wally as he ran at high speed to look for the cause of the burning smell.
Everyone was on guard, Robin immediately started checking the cave data, and Kaldur took out his whips, I guess he's the best suited for these fire cases I suppose.
"Oh no, my crackers!"- shouted Megan.
Megan comes flying out, and a look of confusion and calmness is seen on each of our faces, after a pause where we all looked at each other we decided to follow her, the smell led us to the kitchen, where Megan was already taking something out of the oven.
"I was testing the recipe from episode 17," says Megan with a nostalgic look.
"From episode 17?"- asks Wally.
"Forget it."- replies Megan instantly.
"I bet they would have tasted great, wally doesn't seem to mind" -says Robin as we all watch Wally eat the cookies, they look like charcoal but he eats them like they are the richest thing on earth, I don't know if I admire it or it disgusts me, that's not healthy.
P.O.V ROBIN
"I didn't think we'd be scared of some burnt cookies, but... How can you eat that, Wally?"
"mmm...I have...mmm...a pretty good metabolism. Ohh, they look like rocks, but they're not that bad tasting Robin." -Wally replies
"Well, I'll make more to reward those I burn." - Says Megan with a bit of sadness.
"It was nice of you to make them." - kaldur comforts her.
"Thank you, Aqualad.". Says Megan
"We are off duty they call me Kaldur'ahm, but my friends call me Kaldur".
Wally doesn't hesitate to rush to Megan's side with a mouth full of burnt cookies, he's amazing, this guy.
"And I'm ...... Wally, now that you see I've trusted you with my secret identity we should go on a date together somewhere different, you're going to have fun unless you want to go with a guy who lives in the dark with glasses, who Batman forbade to tell his identity." -Says wally with a mouth full of burnt crumbs, and with a bit of ego in his voice.
"I see... Well mine is no secret, it's Megan, an earthly name since I'm on earth."
Silence invaded the room for a few seconds, we all already introduced ourselves to Megan and only Superboy was missing, he just turned around not to look at anyone, I guess it must be weird for him not to have a name yet, why did he turn around to look at Megan like that, he seems like he wants to kill her.
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"-Superboy yells at Megan.

Shit Megan doesn't know what happened on our mission when we found Superboy, if she tries to get inside his head it's obvious he won't like that because of trauma issues and everything lived who knows for who knows how long.
-What's going on, I don't understand, everyone on Mars communicates telepathically. -
Shit, what is this feeling, it's like his voice is playing with my head, it feels bizarre, the other guys must be feeling the same, is this what Superboy felt? No wonder it didn't sit well with him at all.
"Megan stop it already!...on earth things are different, here your powers are an extreme invasion of people's privacy!"- Baldur shouts while holding his head.
"kaldur is right, besides this kid lived with psychic genomorphs that left a bad taste in his brain".- said Wally with a bit of humor in his tone of voice.
"I'm sorry, Superboy I didn't mean to. "- Megan apologizes very apologetically to everyone.
"Just stay out of my head."- emphasizes Superboy.
Superboy didn't like the idea at all, understandable, we don't know what he experienced down there, Megan should be more careful, now the kitchen is silent as Superboy continues to walk away, and the atmosphere becomes quite bitter.
"Sure Megan, I know what we can do!"- says Megan as she flies away.
Because Megan talks in the third person, she's a pretty weird girl the truth... we better follow her, who knows what she might have thought of, it's better to prevent future accidents.
" Let's go guys"
P.O.V SUPERBOY
What's wrong with that girl, she doesn't understand what privacy is, and that's what she told me who does she think she is?
-calm down superboy we will find an earthly name for you too-.
It's not that it bothers me not having a name, but it's still uncomfortable when they talk so naturally about their secret identities, it's weird especially when I come from a life full of loneliness and no friends.
Besides that feeling that it generates when it enters my mind is in a way quite disgusting, I had never felt that in my past life, although in this life I must remember that things are different... maybe if I exaggerate a little but...
"Superboy please join us."- Megan suddenly appears flying in.
Although it was wrong what she did, she was the only one who in this last week was preparing dishes and giving me this, she was also always looking out for me, she left me meds at the door after my training, and she had not addressed me until today, she always keeps her distance from me.
It's partly my fault for my way of avoiding people, maybe I shouldn't stay away from this team, more when I'm trying to start a good life, I can't start this badly, I need to improve my life.
" Where are we going ?"
His face full of sadness changed and a small smile came on his face.
" I want to show you something new, follow me"-Megan tells me as she goes flying down the hallway.
"Well, guys I present to you my Martian bio-ship".- says Megan.
A kind of giant, red and dark blue egg was in the middle of the inner hangar of the mountain, to tell the truth, it doesn't look anything like the ships I used to see in my world, not even the ships one used to see in alien movies.
"It's cute, not aerodynamic, but cute, I guess it's something different..."- says Robin without taking his eyes off the ship.
"She's resting, silly, I'll wake her up."- says Megan as she approaches the ship and puts her hand on the ship.
As she touches it it changes shape becoming bigger and bigger taking the shape of a sword or something, I don't know how to describe it, too different from the image I have of an action movie spaceship.
It's like they are connected, Megan makes hand motions and the ship turns automatically, apparently, it handles differently than anyone would think, the back hatch opens and I can see everything inside.
"Come on guys, follow me or are you just going to stand there?" - Megan says rising back up to enter the ship.
"You don't have to tell me twice my princess."- Wally runs up beside her.
"Well... Come on... here we go, what's the worst that can happen no kaldur?"- Robin also runs next to the others.
"Hopefully nothing, what do you say superboy?." Kaldur asks me.
"I think it might be fun."
"If you trust me, I'll give it a try too, let's go" - Kaldur said to me.
As we entered the ship it was quite nice, the weirdest thing of all is the reason why we were all surprised when we entered, was that the driving area inside was empty, it had no seat panels, not even a place to see to drive, it almost looked like an empty room...
"Hey hey this is shaking"-wally warns.
Instantly the ship changes shape and seats appear from the floor of the ship, there is even one for Krypto, there is also a large console at the front of the ship, and you can also see the view through the windows that cleared the moment Megan activated the ship.
"You must prepare to start, if you don't you will crash into the back wall of the ship," says Megan very excited.
We all look at each other's faces, I think that despite everything I'm not the only one surprised, those who have lived all their lives in this world there are still things they don't know, nor see, nor lived, this is not as common as I thought at first.
"Ohhh how weird, Robin I bet the bat-jet doesn't have this security!" - Wally exclaims the moment the seat belts automatically come on.
"Hahahahahaha Cool, no Wally, this is more mind-blowing," replies Robin with great glee.
"Red Tornado, please open the hangar doors".- says Megan before taking off.
The ship starts to rise and the takeoff is very light, but as the hangar doors open, the ship gains momentum, and shoots off at great speed, quite incredible.
"It's incredible," says Kaldur as we are all perplexed at how fast it is.
