Miss Martian, Superboy, and Aqualad are on a misson. Investigation of strange activity near the water. Lag'ann requested not to go since Miss Martian and Superboy were working their relationship out and Aquaman was on another trip.
"Superboy can you scan the water?" Kaldur asked.
"Sure." he said breaking away from M'gann to stand on the pier and scan the water. He took a moment before jumping back surprised. "Kaldur it's," he began.
"Your Father." Black Manta finished appearing out of what seemed to be nowhere. The Manta troopers had surround them. Kaldur didnt feel ready to see his Father again. He had felt some guilt for betraying his Father but couldnt handle even thinking about his Father after Wally had just died. M'gann quickly telepathed the three of them.
"What do we do?" she asked.
"Let us just leave." Kaldur said he felt dejected and defeated already. He knew it was the wrong answer. He knew he had to be a leader but he didnt feel like it.
"No way are we going to let the bad guys escape!" Superboy said and began attacking a few of the troopers. M'gnn follows and began's attacking a few other's. Aqualad knew that meant he had to fight his Father. He ran forward to fight him but to his surprise Black Manta ran towards him a punch him hard in the stomach just as Aqualad jumped to attack him. Kaldur feel on the ground surprised but not hurt.
"What," Black Manta asked "you think I learned nothing from our time together?" The sentence was friendly enough. Aqualad nodded his head and prepared again for a battle. To Kaldur the time they spent together was a mission. At some point he had wanted to be with his Father but his Father was a villian for sure, which was unexceptable. A waste of potential. He waited for Black Manta to make the first move and landed a kick to his Father's stomach which would have hurt him but Black Manta pulled Kaldur in turned him around and put wrapped one arm around Kaldur's neck and the other locked Kaldur's arm's behind his back. Kaldur panicked and began kicking but the bigger Black Manta slowly started walking to the edge of the pier.
"M'gann!" Aqualad telepathicly asked for help but it was too late. Black Manta had jumped of the pier with Kaldur in tow and landed into his ship which took off instently.
"The shot now." Black Manta said onboard and a trooper came up with a shot in his hand. Aqualad couldnt get himself free of the cuffs or his Father's grip. Though he tried his hardest not to he got shot and slowly drifted into sleep.
When Kaldur'ahm woke up. He was pinned against a wall hands seperate from one another and feet on the floor but locked to the wall wearing nothing but his underwear. He slipped his hand through one of the locks on the wall but at the price of a bloody wrist. A few seconds later Black Manta strolled in without his helmet on.
"Son dont go about hurting youself." he said and reached for his son's bloody wrist but Kaldur banged it against the wall angrily.
"What am I doing here? What do you want with me?" he asked angrily.
"Only what you took from me!" David said calmy "I want to be with you forever." Aqualad rolled his eye's at his Father's petty soft spot for him. He got his other hand free at the same price and tried to attack his Father but his feet were still stuck.
"Restrain yourself son." David said but smartly kept a good distance away from him son. He grabbed another sedative shot from the shelf.
"Dont you dare!" Kaldur yelled angrily. David moved close to his son punched him in the stomach quite hard. Kaldur screamed in pain and David injected the shot quickly into his son. Thought Aqualad grabbed a hold off his Dad's neck. "Free me." he whispered as the drugs put him to sleep.
The next time he woke up he was in a bed. Black Manta was sitting in a chair nearby helmetless. "Kaldur." he whispered and touched his son's face. Kaldur recoiled from the attack only to find out he was chained. He sat up and the chain's about his wrist moved with him but he couldnt move them anywhere else. He looked down at his wrist and saw they were all bandaged up.
"Release me!" Kaldur demanded.
"I'm taking you with me Kaldur. We will be together forever just the two of us. I have a private island, we can live happily." David said gently.
"I dont want that!" Kaldur'ahm said angrily. He wondered if someone had came onboard to save him. He hoped release was soon to happen. He didnt want to be with the Black Manta any longer.
"You will." Black Manta gave a evil smile. Psimon entered the room and fear was evident on Aqualad's face. "Were going to erase your memory's. You were never apart of the Young Justice. You will just rember your time at Atlantis and your time with me. Everything else would never have happened." his Father's voice said soothingly. Forget Young Justice? Forget his team? He's the leader of the freakin team how would he forget. Forget Wally?
"No!" Kaldur screamed in agonized pain. He couldnt forget Wally and the price he paid. David got in the bed with his son and put his arms around him.
"Dont panick son." David said and kissed his son's cheek. Aqualad screamed. Hoping someone from the league would hear his call. He screamed loud but not high pitched. His voice couldnt go up very many octives. He saw what looked like a lazer cutting through the wall but then it was to late. Psimon was already in his mind.
"Forget." Psimon said and Aqualad held up strength.
"No!" Kaldur whispered but he was weak to mind attack's.
"Get out of his brain!" order a Martain, no, two Martain's? Manhunter and Miss Martain were both here.
"I'll defeat him Uncle Jon you work on repair the meomories that were lost." Miss Martain said and they got to work.
"David, what are you trying to do?" Aquaman said entering the ship through Superman's lazered hole.
"Taking back my son!" Black Manta stood up furiously.
"But he's not your son," Aquaman said with an evil smile "he's mine!" Black Manta attacked Aquaman and they began fighting vigoursly.
"Superboy attack Psimon from the outside!" Superman who had been waiting outside. Superboy nodded and went to take Psimon to the ground but found it blocked off by a forcefield of some sort.
"Not again!" he said angrily and tried to destroy it. Superman helped and they broke the barrier causing Psimon to calpse to the ground as if he had taken a blow. The Martains went out of hiding mode and got out off Aqualad's mind. Kaldur woke up with a start.
"What has occured?" he asked.
"We saved you buddy." Superboy said gaining a smile from Superman.
"Were here for you Kaldur!" Miss Martain smiled.
"Thank you!" Aqualad said relieved and got up and hugged both the Martains and both the Super's. "Where's Black Manta?"
"He's fighting Aquaman their a few doors away I think. Batman and Nightwing are here to. Were taking over the ship." Superman explained.
"Good." Aqualad said and rushed out.
"Wait!" Jon said to Aqualad as he left he then turned to everyone else"he should be resting. Messing with the mind is a hard thing to do."
"I'll get him." Superboy said and set out the door. Aqualad listened to the sound of fighting and quickly found the room. Aquaman and Black Manta were hashing it out. Black Manta's helmet had come off. Aqualad reached for his water-bearers but they werent their he hit the wall angrily. Aqualad looked at the situation and didnt know what to do. He was confused and his mind still felt jumbled. He walked towards the fight and stood in the middle.
"KALDUR GET OUT OF THE WAY!" Aquaman and Black Manta said in unison. Kaldur said nothing he just passed out. As he passed out a door of the Black Manta flyer opened and Black Manta, Aquaman, and Kaldur were missing by the time Superboy walked in.
