Rebel Yell

"You can’t tell me what to do!" Julienne yelled at the top of her lungs, "You’re not my mom!”

Tara glared at the girl. Teenagers were so difficult. It had never seemed that way when she was a teenager herself, but now she felt a pang of sympathy for older superheroes who’d had to deal with the Teen Titans. “I may not have dealt with the kicking and the swollen ankles, kiddo, but I’ve changed enough of your dirty diapers and swabbed enough skinned knees to earn a little respect from you!”

"I’m not a kid anymore!"

"Stop screaming, and maybe we can discuss this!"

"There’s nothing to discuss,” Julienne said through clenched teeth. “Lian is reforming Young Justice and I’m joining.

"Miri wouldn’t—"

"Mom loves me! She’d understand! I wish you were the one on the space mission, Tara!”

Tara winced at the use of her first name. ‘What happened to ‘Mama Tara’?’ she wondered. Julienne stomped the rest of the way up the stairs and down the hall to her room. Her bedroom door slammed hard.

Tara sighed and went to change the security level so that the windows couldn’t be opened. She didn’t want to outright forbid Julienne from joining the team, but this was a big step and one that Miri needed to give input on. They hadn’t discussed this yet. They hadn’t realized that they would need to so soon.

Tara heard a window shatter upstairs. She yelled, “Oh, that is so coming out of your allowance, young lady!” as she dashed for the back door, intent on stopping her escaping daughter.

A blur of motion swept through the backyard — all Tara saw was yellow. One moment, Julienne was landing in a crouch on the grass, and the next, the yellow blur had intercepted her and swept her away.

"IREY PARK WEST!" Tara howled at the departing speedster, "I am telling your mother!"
