Ok, so i've read many different Young Justice/Danny Phantom crossovers and theories, and they were all pretty good. I've seen Danny/Robin brothers, I've seen tourtured Danny, I've seen Cadmus Danny, and many more. So i decided, why not make one of my own? So, I'm going to give it a shot. Hope you like it! Please review, I love reading people's opinion on the stories i write!
Gotham City
July 4, 12:00
It was a nice summer day in Gotham. Families filled the parks, playing sports, having picnics, and spending time together. One family, however, was spending it a little different. A family of three were enjoying their lunch when everyone began to scream and run. The father dropped the food he held and watched in horror as a blue ray shot out at random people, freezing them on the spot. He held his children close as a tall man in blue armor holding a rather large gun looked down at them from a tall ledge. "Enjoying family time?" He sneered, aiming the gun down at them. The children screamed as he froze the family on the spot. "My family has other plans." He smirked at the statue of ice and raised his gun to fire again, but a small black object hit the barrel, causing him to lower it. He looked around, searching for the offender. "Batman." He said coldly, looking for the hero he knew was nearby. "I was wondering when you-" A young,creepy laugh echoed through the park, cutting him off. He spun around, trying to find the source of the childish laughter. He glanced up in time to see a young boy in a red, yellow, and black suit leap onto his visor and knock him to the ground. The boy chuckled and landed in a crouch in front of him and threw a few red darts at his helmet, cracking the glass. "Ah, Boy Wonder." He smirked, looking up at the boy. "So, the Bat sent you to drag me off to prison?" He stood and began to raise his gun. "Frankly, I'm underwhelmed." Robin smirked at him.
"Great, but I'm kinda in a hurry here." He said, throwing his arms up as though bored. Mr. Freeze shook his head, pointing the gun at him.
"Kids..always in such a rush." He powered up his gun, ready to fire.
"Not talking to you." Robin sighed, crossing his arms and looking behind the man. He turned and his eyes widened as a dark figure leaped above him and punched his visor in, knocking him out.
Star City
July 4, 9:01
Cars and trucks rolled across the golden bridge, unaware of the danger. Suddenly, a young scrawny boy of about eighteen landed in the middle of the freeway, sending cars flying. He laughed and froze over a few, trapping the people inside. Then, a few arrows embedded themselves in the ice next to him, and another hit his shoulder. He frowned as they beeped, then his eyes widened and the one on his shoulder exploded, sending him sideways into the other three, which also exploded. He groaned and rubbed his head, still standing. He looked up at one of the archways before him and gasped. At the top stood the legendary Green Arrow and Speedy. He glared at them as they both drew another arrow and aimed them. "Finally!" He said. "I was wondering what a guy had to do to get a little attention around here." He made his arms, which were made of ice, grow until they were almost to big for his body and thrusted them forward, the extra ice forming into large spikes and launching them at the two heroes.
"Junior's doing this for attention?" Speedy asked as he shot one of the incoming spikes, making it explode as well. The two then ran along the edge of the archway to avoid the other four. They leaped over one and landed on the cable between the arches, running down it while firing more arrows. "I'm telling you now, this little distraction better not interfere." Green Arrow fired two more arrows at Junior, who made a shield of ice to block them. They exploded, shattering his shield and he grunted, throwing two more spikes at Speedy. He expertly leaped up and flipped over them, while also drawing an arrow and aiming it at Junior. He fired it and the blunt point hit him square on the jaw, knocking him out cold. (XD bad pun) He grunted and skidded a few feet before landing at the feet of Green Arrow, who chuckled.
"Looks like the kid had a glass jaw." He joked, looking back at Speedy.
"Hilarious. Can we go?" Speedy asked impatiently. "Today's the day!"
Pearl Harbor
July 4, 6:02
A thick layer of ice covered the ships and sea, cold winds blowing hard. A young girl fired blue beams of ice from her hands, trying to hit the Atlantian king as he ran along the ship, dodging each blow. He grunted as she landed a lucky shot, freezing him from the neck down. A young dark skinned Atlantian flipped over him, charging the girl. The ice surrounding Aquaman shattered and he ran behind him. "Don't tell me you're not excited?" He asked the young boy.
"Right now, my king, I'm more focused on the matter at hand." He said as he ducked under another ray of ice. He leaped in the air, his tattoos glowing a bright blue and water flowed from the tops of his handles, forming two small clubs. The girl fired a strong blast at him and he used the clubs to block them, the water freezing over as he landed. He swung the clubs up and the ice hit her on the jaw, knocking her into the air. He looked down at the girl, then up at Aquaman. He crossed his arms.
"Well?" He asked expectantly.
"Yes, I'm excited." Aqualad replied with an amused smile. "Today's the day."
Central City
July 4, 11:03
The wall of a jewelry store was covered in ice, a huge hole blasted through the side. On the street beside it, an older man stood in the middle with a briefcase in his hand. A red and a yellow blur ran in circles around him, each going in opposite directions. The man fired a blue ray from a small gun, hoping to hit one of them, but missing every time. "Stealing ice?" Flash said. "Seriously? Isn't that a bit cliche' even for Captain Cold?"
"Come on!" Kid Flash said, pulling his goggles down over his eyes. "We don't have time for this!" He sped straight forward, quickly grabbing the gun from Captain Cold's hand and skidding to a stop. He was momentarily distracted, which Flash used. He sped forward, knocking him out with a blow to the jaw. He skidded to a stop and looked down at the man.
"Calm down, Kid." He fussed.
"Oh please!" Kid said impatiently, crossing his arms. "You'll chat up with the cops, bystanders, even Cold! No, no way! Today is the day!" He said, grinning huge.
Washington D.C.
July 4, 2:00
Groups of reporters surrounded the Hall of Justice, where Batman, Robin, Green Arrow, Speedy, Aquaman, and Aqualad all stood. "Today is the day." Batman said with a small smile, placing a hand on Robin's shoulder.
"Welcome to the Hall of Justice." Green Arrow said.
"Headquarters of the Justice League." Aquaman finished.
"Aw, man!" Kid Flash said as he and Flash skidded to a stop behind the group. They all turned to look at them. "I knew we'd be the last one's here!" He crossed his arms and glared at Flash.
The reporters all crowded and took as many pictures as they could. "Is that Batman?" "I see Flash! And Flash Junior!" "His name's Speedy!" "No, Speedy's Green Arrow's sidekick!" "Well that make's no sense.."
"Ready to see the inner sanctum?" Green Arrow asked Speedy.
"Born that way." He grinned.
"I'm glad we're all here." Aqualad said.
"Have all four sidekicks ever been in the same place at the same time?" Kid Flash asked, excited.
"Don't call us sidekicks. Not after today." Speedy snapped.
"Sorry, first time at the Hall." Kid said. "I'm a little overwhelmed."
"You're overwhelmed, Freeze was underwhelmed, why isn't anyone ever just whelmed?" Robin said, walking forward. He looked up at the golden statues of their trainers and the giant dome ceiling. "Oh...maybe that's why.." He stared open mouthed. A door opened in front of them and Red Tornado and Martian Manhunter stepped out.
"Robin, Speedy, Aqualad, Kid Flash, welcome." Manhunter said. They walked inside. "You now have unlimited access to the gym, our fully stocked galley, and of course our library." They entered a large room lined with books and a main computer.
"Make yourselves at home!" Flash said. Robin and Kid Flash both leaped into the chairs, Aqualad sitting in the last one. Speedy decided to stand.
"Quick debrief of why four ice villans attacked on the same day." He said to the other Leaguers. "We won't be long." He told the sidekicks. He turned as a computer scanned them. "Recognized: Batman, 0-2; Aquaman, 0-6; Flash, 0-4; Green Arrow, 0-8; Martian Manhunter, 0-7; Red Tornado, 1-6." A door opened and the Leaguers stepped forward.
"That's it?" Speedy said, agitated. They all turned to look at him. "You promised us a real look inside, not a glorified back stage pass." He crossed his arms.
"It's a first step." Aquaman said. "You've been granted access few others get."
"Oh really?" Speedy said, gesturing to the reporters outside the window who were taking pictures. "Who cares which side of the glass we're on?"
"Roy, you just need to be patient." Green Arrow stepped forward.
"What i need is respect." He snapped, turning to the other sidekicks. "They're treating us like kids! Worse, like sidekicks! We deserve better than this!" The others all looked at each other before looking back up at him. "You're kidding right?" He clenched his fists. "You're playing their game? Why? Today was supposed to be the day, step one into becoming full fledged members of the League!"
"Well," Kid said. "Sure, but, I thought step one was a tour of the HQ."
"Except the Hall isn't the Leagues real HQ!" Speedy snapped. "I'll bet they didn't tell you, it's just a false front for tourists, and a pit stop for catching zetta teleporting tubes to the real thing, an orbiting satellite, called the Watchtower!" Batman glared at Green Arrow.
"I know, but I thought maybe we could make an exception?"
"You're not helping your cause here, son." Aquaman said, stepping forward. "Stand down or-"
"Or what? You'll send me to my room?" Speedy shouted. "I'm not your son! I'm not even his!" He glared at Green Arrow. "I thought i was his partner, but not any more." He took off his hat and tossed it at his feet, turning and stomping away. "I guess they're right about you three." He said to the others. "You're not ready." They all stared in shock as he slammed the door. Just then, the computer system began to beep and a screen displayed a message.
"Superman to Justice League, there's been an explosion at Cadmus. It's on fire." Batman turned to the screen.
"I've been suspicious about Cadmus. This will be a perfect time to in-"
"Zatara to Justice League!" Another voice sounded on the other screen. "The scorcerer Wotan is using the amulet of Attan to block out the sun. Requesting full League response!" Batman looked up at Superman.
"It's a small fire. Local authorities have it under control." Superman said.
'Then Cadmus can wait." Batman spoke into a com link. "All Leaguers rendezvous at Zatara's coordinates. Batman out." He turned to the kids. "Stay put."
"What? Why?" Robin said.
"This is a league mission." Aqua man said.
"You're not trained." Flash said.
"Since when?" Kid said angrily.
"I mean you're not trained to work as part of this team." Flash continued.
"There will be other missions, when you're ready." Aquaman said.
"But for now, stay put!" Batman said, glaring at Robin. They turned and left, shutting the door behind them.
"When we're ready?" Kid said. "How're we supposed to be ready when they keep treating us like..like sidekicks!"
"My mentor..my king..i thought he trusted me.." Aqualad said sadly.
"Trust? They don't even trust us with the basics!" Kid complained. "They've got a secret HQ in SPACE!"
"What else aren't they telling us?" Aqualad looked down.
"I have a better question." Robin said. "Why didn't we leave with Speedy?" They all looked down.
"What is..Project Cadmus?" Aqualad asked.
"Don't know.." Robin said with a sly smile. "But i can find out." He walked over to the computer and began typing. "Access denied." They computer said. He chuckled and kept typing. "Wanna bet?" Withing seconds, information started flying across the screen.
"Whoa, how are you doing that?" Kid said.
"Same system as the batcave!" Robin said with glee. "Alright, Project Cadmus..genetics lab here in town. But if Batman's suspicious, maybe we should investigate.." He grinned.
"Solve their case before they do." Aqualad smirked. "It would be poetic justice."
"He, they're all about justice." Robin put his hands on his hips.
"But they said stay put."
"For the blotting out the sun mission, not this!" He chuckled.
"Wait, are you going to Cadmus?" Kid said quickly. "Cause if you're going, then I'm going!" They grinned up at Aqualad.
"Just like that? We're a team on a mission?" He said.
"We didn't come for a play date." Robin smiled. Aqualad smirked.
Sirens blared as firefighters struggled to put the fire out. In one of the windows, two men were calling frantically, trying to get out. "Stay put!" One of the firefighters called to them. "We'll get you out!" Just then, the room exploded and the force sent the two flying through the window. They screamed in terror as they plummeted down three stories. Kid Flash ran as hard as he could, grabbing the two men as he scaled the wall. He slipped before he could grab on though, and his fingers slid across the glass windows before he caught onto a ledge. "Hey, look!" One of the officers yelled. "It's that Flash Boy!"
"Kid Flash!" He yelled back down. "Why is that so hard to remember?" He asked himself as he hung on. In the alley, Robin and Aqualad caught up and saw their friend's predicament.
"So smooth." Robin teased.
"Does he always run ahead?" Aqualad shook his head. "We need a plan. We-Robin?" He looked around and saw that the boy wonder had run off. A childish laugh echoed through the alley and he sighed. He looked back to the building, where Robin used his grappling hook to swing up to the window. He helped Kid Flash up and they ran into the building. He looked over to the two firemen next to him and grabbed his water manipulators(Idk what those are really) and ran forward. "I need to borrow that." He said as the water from the hose diverted to boost him up to the roof. "Hop on." He told the men, who jumped over and onto the water. He Leaped off at the window and lowered the water to set the men on the ground before releasing it and running into the building. Robin and Kid Flash were in an unburned room and Robin had hacked into the computer systems. "Appreciate the help." Aqualad snapped.
"Hey, you handled it." Robin said. "Besides, we're here to investigate. Poetic justice, remember?" Aqualad stepped out of the room and saw a strange figure just before the elevator doors closed.
"There was something in the.." He said quietly as the others came up behind him.
"Elevators should be locked down." Kid said. Robin ran ahead, scanning the elevator.
"Dude, this is wrong. This is a high speed elevator. It doesn't belong in a three story building!"
"Neither does what i saw." Aqualad said, forcing the doors open. He looked down the impossibly long elevator shaft as the others came up behind him.
"And that's why they need an express elevator." Robin commented as he shot his grapling hook into the ceiling. He secured the line, then leaped down, Aqualad and Kid following. Soon, he stopped falling and he cursed. "I'm at the end of my rope." He swing himself over and landed on the edge of the elevator door. "Bypassing security.." He said as he decoded the alarms. "And go." Aqualad forced the doors open again and they all stepped inside. "Welcome to project Cadmus.." He said as they looked at the weird tech lining the room. Kid smirked and ran ahead again before they could stop him. Suddenly he yelped and tripped, sliding a few feet. He looked up as a giant alien creature roared and raised it's foot up to crush him. He Yelped and rolled away, leaping up to his feet as the others caught up to him. They stared in awe as dozens of the creatures walked through the hall in front of them.
"No, nothing odd going on here." Aqualad said sarcastically.
Robin bent over his minicomputer and pressed a few buttons before the door opened. He looked up and gasped. "Ok, I'm officially whelmed.." He said, staring at the giant electricity generator before them.
"So that's how they hide this giant underground facility from the world!" Kid said, looking at the strange creatures in the glass containers. "The real Cadmus isn't on the grid! It generates it's own electricity with these...things...Must be what they're bred for."
"Even the name is a clue." Aqualad said, frowning. "The Cadmus of myth created a new race by sowing dragon's teeth into the earth."
"And this Cadmus creates new life too." Robin said, hooking up the computers. " They're called genomorphs. Woah! Look at the stats on these things! Super strength, telepethy, razor claws, these things are living weapons!"
"They're engineering an army." kid said, looking at the screen. "But for who?"
"Wait, there's more here." Robin said. "Project KR...ugh, the file's tripple incripted...i can't-"
"Don't move!" A voice shouted. They looked over as a man in a blue and yellow suit ran up, one of the genomorphs on his shoulder. "Wait..Robin? Aqualad, Kid Flash?" He stopped, staring at them.
"At least he got your name right." Robin joked, looking at Kid. Aqualad frowned.
"Wait, i know you. Guardian. You're a hero."
"I try my best." Guardian said.
"What are you doing here?" Kid asked.
"I'm chief of security. You're trespassing. But we can call the Justice League, figure this all out."
"You think the league's gonna approve of you breeding weapons?" Kid shouted.
"Weapons?" Guardian frowned. "What are you..what have i...ugh..!" he grabbed his head as the genomorph's horns glowed red. "M-my head..." He looked up suddenly and pointed at them. "Take them down hard! No mercy!" Dozens of larger genomorphs leaped at them, growling and roaring. Robin slammed a smoke bomb onto the ground and shot his grappling hook up into one of the support beams, pulling himself up. Kid dodged a few attacks before flipping over them and knocking out a few. Aqualad struggled with one for a moment before flipping it over and attacking another. Then Guardian hit him hard, forcing him back into the wall. He grunted and got up, attacking him. They fought with equal skill for a moment before Aqualad electrocuted him and shoved him away, knocking the genomorph away from him. Him and Kid ran out of there and found Robin, who was typing something on the computer.
"Way to be a team player, Rob!" Kid said angrily.
"Weren't you right behind me?" Robin frowned as he opened the door and they ran in, Aqualad not far behind. The elevator door shut just in time to block off the genomorphs behind them. The elevator began to move down and Kid frowned.
"We're going down? Dude, out is up!"
"Project KR is down! On sub level 52." Robin frowned.
"This is out of control." Aqualad said. "Perhaps we should contact the League." Just then, the doors opened and they looked out at the strange redish tunnels. they seemed to go on for miles. Robin ran forward.
"We're already here." Kid shrugged and ran after him. Aqualad sighed and followed.
"Which way?" He asked Robin.
"Yea," Robin chuckled nervously. "Bizare looking hallway one or bizare looking hallway two?" Suddenly, a tall genomorph in a coat stood before them.
"Halt!" it shouted and it's horns glowed red. It raised it's hand and a few barrels lifted up, flying towards them. they ran down the second hallway and didn't look back. Guardian and a group of genomorphs ran behind them. Kid sped ahead and tripped, knocking over a young woman in a lab coat. He looked at the closing door and grabbed a thick metal beam, putting it in the way of the door. It groaned, but it held it open. "Hurry!" He called to Robin and Aqualad. They leaped in and Aqualad kicked the beam aside, shutting the door. Robing typed in a code and the door locked, keeping the rest of the genomorphs out.
"Um, guys?" Kid called, pressing a button which turned on a light. "You might want to see this.." They turned around and gasped. In the giant tube in front of them, a young boy who looked about seventeen stood. He wore all white, except for the bright red 'S' symbol on his chest. He seemed to be asleep. Kid looked up into the glass. "KR...big K...little r..Kr...the atomic symbol for Krypton!" He looked back at the others.
"Clone?" Aqualad asked. "Robin, hack away."
"right.." He hacked into the system. "Here. Weapon designation Superboy. A clone force-grown in...16 weeks?! From DNA aquired from Superman."
"Stolen from Superman." Aqualad interjected.
"No way the big guy knows about this." Kid said.
"Solar suit allows him to absorb yellow sun radiation 24/7!"
"And these...creatures?" Aqualad pointed to the creatures above him.
"Genomorph gnomes." Robin frowned. "Teklepathic comunications. Force feeding him an education."
"And who knows what else.." Kid said. "They're making a slave out of..well...Superman's son."
"Now we contact the League." Aqualad said firmly. They each tried their comlinks, all of them failing.
"No signal.." robin frowned.
"We're in too deep." Kid said. "Literally.." He looked back at the glass. "This is wrong.."
"We can't leave him like this." Robin said.
"Set him free." Aqualad said. Robin nodded and pressed a few buttons. The glass surrounding the clone lowered and he closed his fist, the knuckles cracking from lack of use. Aqualad frowned, watching him. His eyes opened and he looked at them for a moment before leaping forward faster than they could react. He slammed Aqualad into the ground and began punching him repeatedly. Kid and Robin quickly each grabed an arm and tried to pull him off.
"We're on your side!" Robin shouted. The clone pulled away and punched Kid into a pillar, knocking him out. "Don't make me do this!" Robin said, still holding onto him. He shoved one of his smoke bombs into the clone's mouth, making him choke on the smoke. Aqualad kicked him back and Robin fired a chord at him, electrocuting him. The clone grabbed the wires and pulled Robin towards him, slaming him into the ground and stepping on his chest. With his super strength, he pushed hard against his chest, cutting off his air. Aqualad grabbed him water sticks and made a giant hammer, hitting the clone back into the wall. He knelt down and helped Robin sit up. He groaned and held his chest before his eyes rolled back in his head and he fell back. Aqualad stood up, dodging a punch from the clone.
"We are trying to help you!" He cried, leaping aside again. He leaped forward, grabbing him in a headlock. The clone growled in anger and leaped up, smashing Aqualad against the ceiling. He yelped and fell to the ground, not moving. The clone then walked over to the doors and forced them open. The scientists outside all jumped and stared at him. The boss stepped forward, seeing the teens all unconsious.
"Good boy..." He aid evily, smirking at the damage.
Deep in the tunnels, a deep laugh echoed through the dark. A screen played out the scene, showing how the teens had managed to get in. A pair of glowing red eyes turned to a tube similar to the one the clone was in and smiled. A bright green liquidfilled it, and floating in the middle was a young boy. Although, you could hardly call him human...a thick hand knocked on the glass. "Wakey wakey." The voice laughed. "I've got a very special job for you." The man laughed psychotically as a pair of bright red eyes snapped open.
Cliffy! Man, i wish i could see your faces right now. Ok, so not much Danny yet, but you will see him soon! Please review!
