Hello, readers! I'm cloudysmile. This is my first fan fiction of Young Justice. I hope you guys may like it as much as I do ( If my grammar and writing style don't bore you like the lecture in university Y^Y)

For summary, the storyline was taken place after the episode called ' End Game' which might annoy some YJ fans about how could producer leave it cliffhanger like this( I'm also upset about this too, my friends). As you guys remembered it, you saw that Nightwing left his team and walked out from Justice League which I don't know why but some people mentioned that he left to do his own mission alone because he couldn't bear the pain about losing Kid Flash( Wally West). But don't worry, I would bring Wally back in my own way which you have to stay tune on it.

This story is for satisfying my hunger to make a story for NightwingxOC. So if you don't like it, please click [X] or click the arrow on left handed side to look for another story.

Since English is my second language, please tell me how should I improve my writing and grammar.

Chapter 1

Offer from Darkness

I don't know how long I had been detained here in this cell like a mad man in lunatic asylum. But from the how bad was my back hair that used to be sleek, now it was brittle like a broom. Luckily, I still smell good and clean since they let us – me and the other people who were held in this place have a shower like an ordinary people but we didn't have our privacy like we did when we were at home. The other people that were abducted to this place were civilian just like me. Some of them were college students, businessmen, waitresses or waiter, and etc. However, The rule that people who abducted us was very strict as if we were the prisoner like other villains whom Justice Leagues fought with. The

For clothes, I was forced to wear something that looked like a patient in some scary movie that the female victim who wore the garb commonly worn by patients undergoing surgery[1] and was chased by some lunatic killer around the hospital or wherever that could scare people to death.

The cell that I 'lived' in was dark. There wasn't any windows that let the light of sun or moon which was as same as the hallway and the other part of place. The only source of light was the light in hallway which slightly illuminated some part of the cell through the steel bars.

" AHHHH!" The scream of the victim from somewhere in this place was like a sign told me that another person wouldn't live anymore. I closed my eyes with fear, praying that it wasn't my turn over and over again in my head...

" Hello, Dr. Hammond" The man called my last name with a low voice like a devil who was ready to take victim's life which was my life as his eyes still focused on the clipboard. Yeah, I almost forgot my name, Rou Hammond . I was a scientist for STARS Lab in the department that about..a-...why I couldn't remember what was my duty. I clenched my temple when I tried to recall all things that happened to me the first day I was abducted until now but it didn't work. I sighed in defeat for my last attempt in recovering memories. It didn't matter to me anymore because my time had come and I would be freed from this pain soon.

" Dr. Hammond?" The man's voice was rose up a little to pull me out from my train of thought. I raised my head a little and sent him a dagger glare through his glasses when I met his gray eyes which squinted for the lack of my attention to him.

' How come that good scientists always died while the bad one was living and conducted the experiment smoothly?' I gritted my teeth and never broke my eye contact with the scientist.

" Today is the day, Dr Hammond." He smirked and motioned his hand to call two guards in military uniform restrained and dragged me toward to the room written ' Project Azazel'. I heard the scream of victim along with some smell that could make me sick to my stomach from that door intermittently. Once I was dragged in that room, I saw a few scientists observed the man as he was transformed into something like insects while the purple substance that looked like slime was on his body at the left side of mine but before I could see what would happen next, Those two guards dragged me too far until he was out of my sight.

" Don't worry, Dr Hammond. We have prepared a special ritual for you. Something that would widen your such a small vision to see that science could be...powerful.." The mad man said as he inputted the code on number pad beside the high dense metallic doors written ' Hekate'. Once the door opened, there were dark purple tentacles grasped both of my legs and pulled me in there. Lucky for two guards, they had released their gripped from my arms due to super strength of those tentacles as they watched me being drag in pure horror. I tried to grasped the side of the door for my life but the more I tried to resist it, the more pain I felt for my leg that they might be torn.

" Oh please, Doctor" the mad man mocked next to my ear as if he was scolded some little child. I glanced at him while I was trying to pull myself from those creature.

Suddenly, he pulled out his scalpel and stabbed on my hand deeply, causing me release my grip from the door and finally, it got me...

All my strength was gone. I couldn't do anything even opened my eyes as I feel those slimy tentacles touched all over my body. I felt something warm from my toes as it slowly creep up to my thigh until it reached to my neck. I felt so disgusted until I let my tears came out and cried.

' Do not fear me, my precious human host...'

I stopped crying and was shocked but unsure if it came the creature that was eating me. Maybe I lost my mind and lied that I heard it talked.

' Yes, human. I can talk in your language by learning it through physical touch.'

' Please, hurry up and eat me...I don't want to suffer like this..' I begged it

' And let yourself die in vain without having revenge on those people or finding the truth who was behind all of these plan and abducted you?' I stayed quite as I processed what it said to me and I somehow agreed with it. I don't want to die without doing anything and I don't want these things happened on the surface of earth.

' So, what do you say? Wanna join with me or be rotten in this place like the others?' The creature talked as it offered the choice for me...

' I choose...to live..' I answered and accepted its offer as the warm liquid thing covered me completely, including my face. I was black out.
