Back in St. Louis, Siren opened her eyes and found herself lying under a giant tree that was growing in the park that was nearby the Arch.
"What happened?" asked Siren as she got up to her feet.
"Siren! Thank goodness you're alright!" cried a voice. The owner of the voice then hugged Siren. It was Spirit. "You disappeared! I thought something had happened to you!"
"I'm alright, Spirit. I must have wondered or something and ended up flying asleep under this giant oak tree." Siren laughed nervously. "Let's get back to camp so no one worries about me anymore."
Spirit gave her a smile and led her back to the campsite where Mysterion came up to the two of them.
"There you are, Siren! Where were you?" he asked.
"I found her asleep under the large oak tree. She seems alright to me." smiled Spirit.
Not too far away from them, Daniel was hiding behind another tree and polishing off his new ray gun that he had finished building had tested out on some animals just a while ago.
"I'm gonna get The Silence some new allies before damn Rachel has them go to wherever they're going to first!" Daniel said as he flipped the ray gun on. "Perfect! Now to get us some allies."
"You need to be more careful, Siren. You shouldn't just wonder off like that." said Mysterion.
"Sorry about that." she apologized.
"Fellow heroes! Remember me?" Daniel called out, gun at the ready.
"Daniel! What the fuck do you want?" Angel Wing shouted as she ran up next to Mysterion.
"I am not hear to talk, Angel Wing. I am here to collect some new allies!" Daniel screamed at them as he fired the gun, which missed. "Dammit! I am not leaving without my new allies!"
Siren opened up her wings and flew herself at Daniel. "You are not turning anyone against us today!" she said as she grabbed one of his arms.
"On the contrary, my dear Siren," he said as he blasted Siren, "I'm not planning to turn anyone here evil!"
Siren was fell to the ground and held herself as if she were in pain. She soon glowed an eerie black before the glow pulled from her and formed another person. The person opened her eyes and looked around at her surroundings.
"It seems like I have been freed from that internal prison! Now my darkness can finally be released!" she laughed evilly.
"Dark Siren. Welcome to The Silence!" Daniel smiled at her.
"I am not associated with that hero! I don't desire to be called Dark Siren! I wish to be called Lanya instead." Lanya smiled.
Siren looked at Lanya oddly. "W-Who exactly are you?"
Lanya got up and grabbed Siren by her collar and said, "I am your darkness, or I least I was. Now I am free and you are nothing but goodness! That makes you much easier to fight!" Lanya quickly pushed Siren to the ground.
"Lanya, distract them!" Daniel commanded.
"You aren't in command of me, Daniel! I work for The Silence, not you!" Lanya yelled at him. "You do not command me, not now, not ever! Darkicus Noris!" she shouted as black energy shot out of her hands and blasted Daniel away from her. "Siren didn't know that she had the power of darkness within her. I now have that ability and bring darkness to all!"
Spirit quickly called on her fellow spirits to render Lanya still. "You can't use your powers if you can't possibly move."
"You don't me well enough then as you just met me. Darkicus Noris!" Lanya shouted as darkness shot out of her hands and shot Spirit. "I'll deal with you superheroes later. I have my new leader to see." Lanya said as she flew away from them.
"Lanya, get back here this instant!" Daniel yelled.
"How about this, Daniel. I'll take us back to Serenity and introduce myself and even give you credit for bringing me into existence." said Lanya. "Darkicus Norbis, take us back to The Silence now!" she said as she and Daniel teleported away.
"What just happened?" asked Siren.
"I believe we just gained a new enemy." said Spirit.
