I sat at the table with the team silently. RT was my mentor, I didn't understand why he would do this. Green arrow set a bowl of pretzels in front of us.
"Thanks, but no thanks." KF sighed.
"Yeah, what we want, is answers." Robin stated. Green Arrow picked up the bowl, but KF grabbed it from him.
"Leave the bowl."
"You knew?" Superboy tackled Aqualad, "that android and his maniac family almost killed M'gann!"
"Conner what are you doing?" M'gann flew over to the two.
"Kaldur knew we had a traitor among us and said nothing!"
The rest of us stood up from our spots at the table. I swiftly walked over and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Superbo- Conner please, there has to be a reason behind this. RT was my mentor, I know him." I said quietly.
"Wait," KF looked at me, "he was your mentor. You could be working with him!"
"I have been with the league for 6 years." I growled. I could feel Wally's heartbeat, elevated, faster. He was angry, I know he wasn't thinking clearly. But hearing that from my big brother? It was a burn.
"But before that you were with the Brain."
My body went rigid. Flashbacks, I was plagued with flashbacks. Robin took notice and stepped up to my side.
"KF stop it!" Robin scolded.
"No Robin, it's... It's fine. They want to know what happened 6 years ago. I'll tell 'em."
"(Y/n) you don't have to-"
"I do..." I cut him off, taking in a shaky breath. "I was the Brains torture toy. I went through so much, so many horrible experiments. Electro-shock, endurance tests, small spaces, high heights, fear simulators, anything you can think of. The first 6 years of my life, the only feeling I knew was pain, and fear. I woke up everyday knowing I would have to go through it again. I woke up everyday hoping I would die, just so I wouldn't have to feel the pain."
The team gasped. M'gann started crying. I shut my eyes holding back the tears that threatened to come. "I would barely eat. I wouldn't sleep. The one thing that kept me going was the memory of my parents. No pictures are in my mind. Just a feeling, a feeling of love and safety. The only thing I remember really is one thing my mom said. I think right before the Brain took me. I didn't and still don't understand why they would give their child to someone like that, but I know that they did what was best for me in my heart a-and I still love them."
"(Y/n)..."
"I'm a hero for them... The league saved me, I swore to die before I let anyone else go through what I did. So if you want to call me a traitor, then go ahead."
Robin pulled me into a hug and I cried on his shoulder. He knew how hard it really was for me to tell the team this. My parents weren't something I liked to think about, the league had offered countless times for me to use their supercomputer to research them, but they're gone.
"(Y/n) I'm so so sorry." KF apologized.
"I forgive you." I sniffled.
"With Red Tornado missing the team will now be overseen by rotating supervisors. Captain Marvel has volunteered to take the first shift." Batman spoke up.
"I'm really looking forward to working with you guys." He smiled. We all looked at each other.
"After I dismantle Red Tornado, you and I are gonna-" Superboy started glaring at Aqualad.
