Chapter 7 A Happy Harbor Welcome
Disclaimer I own nothing if I did would I be posting it on Fanfic sites.
Okay so I will have chapters that aren't Young Justice episodes but chronologically this had to happen first, because this episode has to be only a day or two at most after the end of the last chapter.
On another note: what do you guys think about if I add characters that aren't in Young Justice normally but are the right age, and around the right time to be apart of the team? I'm talking about people like Supergirl- She'd be about 16 I think. So put your suggestions if you can think of any others, if they appear later in the show they will show up eventually, and don't include the Teen Titans like from the show if there are titans from the comics who fit, and aren't a member of the show then go ahead and suggest them.
3rd POV
Danny was sitting in the cave talking with Superboy, when he heard the computer say "Welcome Robin B01. Welcome Kid Flash B03.
The two walk out of the Zeta tube in their civilian clothes, and run up to Aqualad who had gotten up to talk to them.
"So have you asked him yet?" Robin asked eagerly.
"He just arrived." Aqualad answers with a little mirth at the excitement on his young friends face.
"Well let's go," Wally said, as he and the others all went up to the front of the cave just in time to see Red Tornado landing.
"Hello children, is there a reason you came to meet me at the entrance of the cave?" Red Tornado asked in his robotic monotone.
"Yeah, we wanted to know if you had a mission for us," Robin said excitedly. He didn't notice Danny slowly shaking his head behind them.
"Missions are the Batman's responsibility." Red Tornado reminded them.
"Yeah, well it's been days and we haven't had a single mission yet," Wally said.
"You will be tested soon enough. Why don't you explore the cave, and get to know each other?" Red Tornado suggests.
"This team is not a clubhouse," Aqualad said firmly. Once again no one noticed Danny shaking his head though now he has a look of amusement and remembrance.
"I understand that knowing each other is an integral part of team dynamics. You will be tested soon enough." Red Tornado said as he walks into the cave.
"Does he honestly expect us to just sit around?" Robin asked the others.
"Ooh, I'll find out!" M'gann put her hands to her head, and her eyes glowed green before shaking her head. "Right. He's an android, an inorganic, so I can't read his mind."
"I'm starting to think Speedy was right, this team is just a way to get us out of the League's way," Robin says.
Finally, Danny spoke up, "You guys might not understand yet, but take it from someone who had to watch his hometown all by himself for a while, you will come to enjoy these rest periods between missions, and villains evil schemes." Danny laughs a little at himself after saying that.
"Trust me, I was a lot like you guys are right now at one point. I always assumed that there was something going on, but as time goes on you will come to realize that you need these times between missions or you'll go crazy." Danny finishes.
"Phantom I like you, and all, but some of us have been doing this longer than you." Robin points out to Danny.
"You're right. Most of you have been doing this just as long if not longer than I have, but of all of us, I'm the only one who did it largely on my own. Sam and Tucker may have helped when they could but, most of the time it came down to me. I've been through both nonstop work for weeks, and then nothing for a while. One thing you gotta learn is to enjoy what downtime you get," Danny said to all of them.
The rest of the team is kind of stunned at this. Some of them had been in this line of work for longer than Danny, but they all had a mentor who did most of the work, actually now that they think about it how many times have their mentors told them to relax during those same periods of nothing.
"Okay so while we're here we might as well tour the cave," Robin said.
"Well since Superboy, and I live here we can give the tour," M'gann said.
"Don't bring me into this," Superboy said gruffly.
"We won't, a private tour sounds better anyway," Wally said obvious to everyone but M'gann that he's flirting.
"She never said private." Robin points out through gritted teeth.
"Team bonding," Aqualad said.
"Yeah, we all go." Danny contributes.
The entire team went on a tour of the mountain. After a while, M'gann flew back into the kitchen only to take a platter of burnt cookies out of the oven.
"Ahh, I was trying to use the recipe from episode twenty-seven… Eh never mind." M'gann said getting embarrassed at the end.
"It was sweet of you to make any," Aqualad said.
"Yeah, they don't seem to mind," Robin reassured her while gesturing towards Wally, Star, and Danny eating the charcoal cookies.
"We have a serious metabolism," Star and Wally said at the same time.
Danny shrugged. "Eh, it's still better than my mom's cooking."
"Your mom can't be that bad of a cook, that burnt cookies still taste better," Robin said.
When he says this Star, Wally, Superboy, and Danny all shudder, and say "Trust me, it is."
"Superboy, I'm so sorry that your first taste of food was my mom's cooking." Danny apologizes.
"It's fine Danny," Superboy said remembering that day.
Danny and Superboy had stayed the night at Jazz's place, and were going to Danny's house.
"Okay, Superboy while my sister knows about the whole superhero thing my parents don't so we need to get you a new name," Danny said as they walked by a store with a bunch of TVs playing old television reruns where a girl named Megan is talking to a boy named Connor.
"Hmm Connor hows that sound to you?" Danny asked the clone.
"Works for me." The Kryptonian shrugged.
A few minutes later Danny and the now named Connor walk into Fenton works with Superboy only looking at the neon sign for a second before following Danny, as they walk in Maddie see's them, and waves at the boys.
"Hey sweetie, who's your friend?" she asked the boys.
"Hi Mom, this is Connor. Connor this is my mom."
"Well boys I just finished a batch of cookies if you feel like trying one," she said, while holding up a plate of cookies.
Before Danny can warn him Superboy takes one of the offered cookies, and takes a bite. Only to start coughing, and sputtering.
"Oh darn, it looks like they're too dry again," Maddie said.
After that Danny had given an excuse for why Superboy needed a place to stay for a few days, which his parents bought surprisingly easy.
"I'm sure your cookies would have been delicious." Aqualad consoles a slightly sad M'gann.
"Thanks, Aqualad," M'gann said.
"No problem, and when we're off duty my name's Kaldur'ahm, actually my friends call me Kaldur," Aqualad said getting to know his new teammate.
"My name's Danny." Danny introduces himself.
"And my name's Wally West, see I already trust you with my secret identity, unlike Robin. Batman's sworn him to secrecy," Wally says lightly flirting with M'gann again.
"I'm Star Allen." Star introduces herself to the bubbly Martian.
"Well, my names no secret I'm M'gann M'orzz, but now that I'm on Earth you can call me Megan. It's an Earth name."
Superboy starts to feel a little awkward with the topic of conversation, with him not having a real name, just a designation.
Seeing this M'gann telepathically tells Superboy, "Don't worry Superboy we'll get you an Earth name too."
This reminding Superboy of the genomorphs causes the young clone to lash out at the innocent Martian. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD."
"What's wrong? I don't understand. Everyone on Mars communicates telepathically," Ms. Martian asks everyone telepathically, and gets confused when they all clutch their heads in pain.
"M'gann, things are different from Mars, here what you did is an extreme breach of privacy," Aqualad explains through clenched teeth.
"And besides that those genomes really left a bad taste in his mouth when it comes to people being in his head," Wally explains.
"I'm sorry Superboy." M'gann apologized.
"Just stay away from me," Superboy growled out.
"Well as informative as this was, what do we do now?" Star asked.
"Hello Megan! I know something we can do." M'gann exclaims excitedly.
"Come on. Follow me." She continues leading the group through the cave.
Superboy stays back though, when she notices this M'gann comes back and looks at the sullen clone.
"I'm really sorry Superboy, please come with." M'gann pleads.
Superboy sits there for a second before sighing, and standing up to follow the martian. Seeing this M'gann smiles, and leads the team to the cave's hanger.
"What's that red thing over there?" Danny asked M'gann.
"That's my Martian bioship," M'gann explains happily.
"Adorable, not aerodynamic, but adorable," Wally said looking at the floating red pill shaped object.
"No silly it in rest mode right now, just let me wake her up," M'gann explains chuckling a little at the faces of her friends when the bioship expands into a spaceship.
"Whoa, guess I can check flying in an alien spaceship off my bucket list." Danny said as he gazes amazed at the bioship."
"Yeah, looks like it," Star said chuckling at her friends face.
"So who wants to go for a flight around the area?" M'gann asks.
"Let's go," Danny said while practically sprinting onto the ship.
"I'm in," Star said following the halfa.
The rest of the team look at each other amused, before following the two into the ship.
As M'gann clears their exit with Red Tornado the rest of the team takes a seat. Aqualad leans over to a sulking superboy. "I know what you're thinking, you overreacted, and you don't know how to apologize."
As that conversation was going on Robin was consoling M'gann who after leaving the cave was starting to look a bit depressed. "Hey don't worry about it. He'll come around," he said to the upset Martian.
"I don't think he likes me very much," M'gann says to the younger boy.
"You guys remember he has super hearing right?" Wally whisper yelled.
The three look over awkwardly at the Kryptonian.
"So M'gann, can you do that ghosting through walls thing, that Martian Manhunter does?" Wally asked trying to change the subject.
"Density shifting? No, I'm sorry, that's a really advanced technique." M'gann admits.
"Yeah, the Flash can vibrate his molecules fast enough to go through stuff. When he tries it- bloody nose." Robin joked, gesturing towards Wally.
"Dude."
"I still can't do that either," Star complained.
"For ghost's, it's pretty basic, but we don't actually change our density. Instead, we actually cease to be there completely," Danny said. He was interested in the similarities between the powers of Martians, and ghosts.
"How about some of that Martian shapeshifting?" Robin asked M'gann.
"Now that I can do." She responds happily, while shifting into a female version of Robin, then Kid Flash.
"Is it weird that I think I'm hot?" Wally asked.
"Yes." Danny and Star said at the same time. Both have a cheeky grin as Kid Flash sends a glare at them.
M'gann chuckles a bit while trying to hide her smiling face from Wally. After she composed herself she said, "Okay, next let's try this on for size," before becoming a female Danny, which really looks a lot like Danielle if she was a few years older.
"So that's what Dani will look like in a few years," Danny said to Star, who can only nod a that.
"Nice, but you know you aren't going to fool anyone with those disguises right?" Robin asked M'gann.
"Boys are harder for me," M'gann explains.
"But here's something I can do," she said before the bioship suddenly becomes camouflaged.
"Camouflage. Not as cool as invisibility but still nice." Danny jokes.
"Base to Team, come in." Red Tornado's voice comes from the comm system.
"This is the team reading you loud, and clear Tornado," M'gann answers the comm.
"I'm getting reports of a disturbance at the Happy Harbor Power Plant. Check it out." Red Tornado informs them.
"I mean it' still something," Star said.
"A simple fire led you four to Superboy, so who knows what we'll find here," M'gann said, gesturing to the four that snuck into Cadmus.
