Meeting the family
Clark and connor have to look after drax, and find out he's not who they thought he was. Disclaimer I don't own anything, wish I did though.
"Batman are you sure this can't wait? Connor and I have to meet someone" superman said over his comlink. As he flew to where batman and the young justice team was. "I'm surtan" batman said ending the coneversation, superman shied, "first he wants me to spend more time with connor. And now that I am he's making it difficalt" he muutered landig. He walked into the warehouse, the first thing he saw was the young justice team excluding robin. They were all ingured what happened?" He asked, "we'd kinda like to know, too" superboy told him. "Huh?" Superman said confused, "I believe I can explain" superman turned, to see brainy and robin.
Both were hurt, robin seemed to be scanning and running tests on, brainy. "Brainy? What are you doing here?" He asked, "we had a little glich with a time buble and we landed here" brainy told him. "We?" Superman asked, brainy pointed, superman turned and gasped. Drax zod stood in hancuffs (batman's handcuffs) next to batman. "You've got some explaning to do" batman told him, superman told them about going to the future, meeting brainy and drax. "So, he's like us?" Superboy asked, "yea, I am" drax said, "and I don't like being talked about when I'm in the same room" "sorry superboy told him.
"What are we gonna do with him?" Kidflash asked, reseving a glare from drax, "yea, he's fast with the speed. Not so much with the mouth" robin told him, drax snickered. "We can't send you back to the phantom zone" brainy said, "but he only destroyed the one in the future so-" "he means he doesn't want to send him there" robin inturubted. "Why?" Superman asked, batman grabbed drax's cape and pulled. Reveling his ripped costume and showing his scar covered chest and side, some only a day old.
"We oviosely didn't and couldn't do that" robin told him, "drax, what if we told you, you didn't have to go back to the phantom zone?" Brainy asked, "what would I have to do?" Drax asked, "stop being evil" superman said, "that all?" Drax asked expecting more, "yes" superman told him. "Anything's better than that place" drax whispered, he's supost to be the gratest heroes. Of course he's not gonna say all the condisions with them around drax thought. "Where's he gonna stay?" Kidflash asked, "with us" superboy said, "come on dad he needs us" he said seeing superman was going to upject.
"Besides you guys are the only ones strong enogh to handle him, if he goes astray" artimis said. "Fine" superman said, batman removed the cuffs and pushed, him towards the other two kryptonians. "Come on we should get you cleaned up" superman said drax didn't speak. He just flew up arms crossed waiting for them, superman shied. And grabbed superboy's hand since he hadn't quite gotten the hang of flying yet and they flew off. "You guys should head back to mount justice" robin told the others. "Can you wait here a sec?" He asked brainy, he nodded, robin whispered something to batman.
Superman, superboy, and draxx land outside superman opened the window. "Well, welcome to your new home" he told drax, drax didn't awnser he just walked in behind superboy. "Connor, could you get the first aidkit?" He asked, closing the window, "sure, dad" conor said. Drax looked around the small apartment, "we should see how bad those cuts really are" superman said. Drax nodded taking off his shirt, as he did he heard superman making a call. "Sorry, but something came up, ok so tomarrow insted, bye" he said hanging up.
He looked up as connor came in carring the first aidkit, "thank you, connor" he said taking the kit. Connor nodded and walked to his room, "superman I-" "you can call me clark" he told him. "Ok clark I know I'm gonna have to go back if I don't follow the-" "drax it's ok just sit down" clark said montaning in front of him. Drax knelt in frount of him, his back to him. Superman winced seeing all the cuts some looked infected. He ran a hand down a strange scar in the shape of a cresent moon, "that's not a scar" drax told him. "Huh?" Clark asked, "that's a birthmark" drax told him, "it looks cool, but what have you been doning?" He asked, dapping the cuts with iadine, drax gritted his teeth. Not letting even a hiss out no matter how the iadine stang.
After he disinfected the cuts superman bandged them, "ok you can stand up" superman told him. Drax did, "we'll get your costume fixed tomarrow, right now let's get some sleep" clark told him. Drax followed him to his (clark's) bed room, "these are a little big. But they'll have to do till we can get some your size" he said, handing drax the pj. Drax went into the bath room to change clark changed himself and got in bed. He was reading when drax came out, he looked over at him, he was suprized by the sight he saw.
He knew, drax was as tall as, connor from seeing them standing next to each other. But he'd always thought, drax had more mucle because of his strength and indurence. But as he looked at drax now, he saw a small boy staring at him, his clothes hung off him slightly. His hands were hiddan by his sleaves, and the shirt hung off one shoulder. Exposing his pale chest and skinny shoulders, drax looked like he could get lost in the clothes. He's so small superman thought staring at him, drax walked over trying not to trip on the bottums.
He climbed onto the bed, "uh, drax this is my bed" superman said as drax climbed onto the bed. "I know daddy" drax told him lying down next to him, superman's eyes widened. Drax just closed his eyes and grabbed the pillow, I know what he really wants, he's the same as them. He wants to do the same things that they did drax thought. Remembering what the prisners in the phantom zone did to him. The men always made me call them daddy when they did it drax thought, squeezing the pillow.
He was suprised to feel someone gently rub his head, he opened his eyes to see superman petting his head gently. "Y-you're not going to do anything?" He asked, "no, of course not why would you think that?" Superman asked, drax avoided his eyes, superman stared, "no wonder you were so desprate to get out" he whispered. He pulled, drax into a hug him "I'm so sorry we sent you back there" he whispered. Drax was over whelmed he'd never had someone care about him before. All the emotions he was feling were, too much, he pushed away and looked down. "I guess I desirved it" he muuttered holding back tears, clark put a hand on his shoulder. "No one desirves what you've been through" he told him.
Drax looked at him "so you won't send meback?" He asked, "no, but I don't want you to go back to being evil. I don't want to have to fight you and I know connor won't want to fight you" clark told him. Drax's gaze driffted down wards, "do you think brainy will forgive me?" He asked, superman smiled, "yes, and I'm sure he'll want to be friends" he told him. Drax smiled sadly, "thanks and I am sorry I never should've belived my mum and dad, but-" "but they're your parents" clark finished. "Yea" drax said, he stiffled a yawn, clark russled his hair.
"Maybe you should stay in here tonight" Clark said, "ok, can you leave the lights on?" Drax asked as clark reached for the light swich, "I'll leave the lamp on ok?" Clak said, drax nodded, they lay down "good night, drax" clak said, "good night, daddy" he heard drax whisper. Drax slept peacefully till he heard a sound, as he opened his eyes someone grabbed him from behind. Making sure to cover his mouth, and pin his arms to his sides, pulling him out of the apartmebt. And onto the roff, the person threw drax on the roff.
Drax landed on his hands and knees, he turned and saw who abducked him. "No" he whispered, as he stared at general zod, "hello son" he said barring his monsteruse teeth in an evil grin. Drax tried to crawl away, but triped on the pj bottums. He felt zod grabbed him roughly by his ginger-brown hair, he lifted drax's head up, keeping his body pinned under his foot. "You've forgotten how to act towds your father already?" He asked, drax didn't awnser he just bit his lip, zod grinned "well no problum I'll be happy to reteach it to you" he said grabbing drax's rists.
Drax shook tears burning in his eyes, "D-daddy" he whispered, "good, but too late" zod told him. "He's not talking to you!" Someone cried, zod turned in time to get hit with four rays. Drax turned on his side he saw clark rush past him, and connor kneeling next to him. He pulled drax close eyes on zod, drax looked to where he was and clark and zod fighting. "You saved me" he said turning back to connor, "of coures you're my brother" connor told him. "I've never had a brother before" drax said.
"Well you do now" connor told him, "are you ok?" Clark asked, drax saw zod tied up tight. "I am now" drax said "good because I don't want anyone hurting my boys" clark told him. Drax closed his eyes and leanded on clark, but when drax opened his eyes he found himself alone in clark's room. He sat up, "I see you're awake" drax turned to see clark. He walked in carring a tray with food on him, "I didn't know how hungry you were. So I might have gone over board" he said setting the tray down in drax's lap.
"No, it's perfect" drax said digging in, I guess they don't eat verry much in that prison clark thought. As he watched drax eat, connor walked in he stood in the door way. He saw his dad sitting on the bed next ot drax, he noticed his dad was looking at drax. The way batman often looked at robin, connor smiled and went to his room, clark told connor about what drax had gone through in the phantom zone. The kid needs this after what he's been through, besides I know dad loves me he thought.
He grabbed some clothes and carried them back to his dad's room, he saw drax swig down the milk. "You were hungry" he said, drax nodded "here I don't know if they'll fit. But you need something to wear" connor told him handing him the clothes. "Thanks" drax said taking the clothes, clark and connor left the room, taking the now empty tray to the kitchen. "We should take him to get some clothes before we meet with them" connor told him. "We will" clark told him setting the tray down.
Drax walked in wearing the clothes connor lent him, the boots fit, but if it weren't for the belt. The pants would've fallen down, the black T-shirt hung off his shoulder. "Come on, drax we're gonna get you some clothes that'll fit you" clark told him. "Ok" drax said the three left and went to a shop drax tried on sevral outfits he liked. Then he found a pair of pjs he liked, "thank you for buying these for me" he said carring sevral bags out. "No problum" clark said as they waled to the park.
Drax looked around the park, then to clark and connor, who were walking ahead of him. He saw them wave to two people "good to see you, ma, pa" clark said. "Hello clark, connor and who's this?" The woman asked, seeing drax, drax tried to hid behind clark. "This is drax zod" cllark told her, "oh this is the young man" she said. As clark stepped aside, "uh hi" drax whispered, "don't be afraid, I'm martha. And I'm going to be your grand mother" drax smiled weakly at he, she smiled brightly at him.
After they finished talking and clark gave his mother, drax's costume to fix. They walked down town till they saw someone furmilare, "hey robin" connor said, "oh hey" robin said. "Here batman told me to give you these" he said handing an envolope to clark. "Adoption papers just what we were going to pick up" clark told him. "Cool oh bats also wanted me to pick up drax and connor he wants to start drax's traing" robin told him. "Ok oh how's brainy?" Clark asked, "good he spent most of last night getting to know his father" robin told him. "Father" all three kryptonians nearly cried in suprise, "yea when I ran some tests I found that here and batman are relared" robin explained. "So I guess the both of us got a new family" drax whispered smiling as he, clark and connor followed robin to mount justice.
