Chapter 04: Fatal Images Part 2

Flash was running through the house of mirrors again and again, trying to find the hostages, while Dan was phasing through the mirrors to see if there was a hidden room.

"This is getting us nowhere." Dan said after two minutes.

There were three minutes left before the hostages die.

"Damnit." Flash muttered coming to a stop. "Come on Flash think, what are you missing?"

Dan looked back at the reflection only to notice something wrong.

The background looked familiar to him, while it was dimmed to show the reflection of the House of Mirrors.

But looking closer, Dan could see cars in the background outside a window.

"The Museum." Dan said causing Flash to pause before he looked at the mirror more closely.

"Good eye." Flash took off towards the Museum leaving Dan in the House as Mirror Master's face showed.

"Well I have to say, I wasn't expecting you to get it." Mirror Master said with a smirk. "You are an intriguing hero."

"For the last fucking time." Dan said startling Mirror Master since heroes were rarely that vulgar. "I'm not a hero."

"What?" Mirror Master looked confused.

"All I've been doing was keeping to myself." Dan said as his hands lit up. "The only reason I'm here is because you've been annoying the hell out of me."

Flash ran by a lot of people as they were in slow motion to him.

He even saw a small heist in progress and stopped to attatch a chain to the getaway car that caused them to stop before they could get away.

But as he got to the Museum he saw the bomb with six seconds left.

'Crap!' Moving quickly, Flash grabbed the bomb.

Five.

He ran out into the city, down a few blocks.

Four.

Nearly slipping, Flash righted himself as the docks came into view.

Three.

Running out towards the middle of the water Flash dropped the bomb.

Two.

Spinning around, Flash began to run away from the bomb.

One.

BOOM!

The explosion caused a tsunami that would've engulfed the Flash if he was a second late.

"Phew." Flash paused as he made it to the docks again. "I love catching waves as much as the next guy, but that was a little intense."

"So you say you're not a hero yet you fight me?" Mirror Master asked ignoring the last part that Dan said. "Then lets see if you can beat me."

Snarling a bit, Dan blast one of the mirrors but there were still hundreds as he kept blasting them.

Feeling a rush of wind, Dan saw Flash breaking a few mirrors.

"How do you normally beat him?" Dan asked as they kept breaking mirrors.

"Normally I trick him into coming out into the real world." Flash admitted. "Not sure if it'll work this time-." Then he stopped as he saw a reflection of himself but with the lightning bolt emblem upside down. "Get away from the mirror!"

"What?" Dan asked in confusion before an ecto blast hit him and he was sent skidding across the floor. "Alright who did-."

Dan stopped as he stared at his reflection coming out of the mirror, the only difference between them was the DP emblem being backwards.

"What the fuck?"

"Mirror Images of us." Flash explained as he ducked a speedy punch courtesy of ImageFlash. "It's really annoying whenever he does this."

Dan put up an ecto shield to block ImageDan's ecto blast.

"I can tell." Dan muttered before trying to blast ImageDan back but ImageDan did the exact same thing with the shield. "Alright this is going to be annoying."

"You think you can win?" Mirror Master asked with a grin. "They know everything you know."

With that ImageDan shot fire causing Dan to turn intangible.

Flash was sent flying by ImageFlash creating a twister from spinning around.

"That may be, but they have no imagination." Flash said as he began spinning his hand causing a ball of compressed air to appear before flinging it at a shocked ImageFlash causing it to shatter.

"Nice trick." Dan said as he turned invisible before slamming a fist into ImageDan's gut causing him to shatter.

Mirror Master glared at them. "How about we try something else?"

"He's annoying." Danny's voice muttered as Dan mentally agreed with him.

Then Mirror Master caused the broken mirrors to repair themselves.

"So what will you do now? Will you try to break them again?" Mirror Master asked with a snide smile.

"No, I'm ending this." With that Dan planted his feet on the ground.

Mirror Master looked at him with intrigue, wondering what he had planned as Dan took a deep breath. "What you think you'll huff and puff and blow this place down?" He asked sarcastically.

Danny chuckled. "Something like that." He said grinning.

With a smirk, Dan unleashed his Ghostly Wail.

Mirror Master's face became one of shock as the howl destroyed mirror after mirror while it was somehow affecting his mirror portal inside the Mirrorverse as he was ejected into the real world in front of Dan.

"Nice." Flash commented as he rubbed his ears in pain.

Grinning, Dan picked him up causing Mirror Master to sigh.

"Well I guess this is the part where I go to jail." He said a bit bitterly, making plans to counter that howl he did.

"I think you mean the hospital." Dan said confusing Mirror Master.

Flash looked up. "Hospital?" He asked carefully.

"What do you-?" Mirror Master screamed as electricity poured through him before Dan grabbed his arm and squeezed it focusing more electricity through it.

"Stop!" Flash tried to say before Dan smirked.

"Never come back." Dan said in a dark tone as he squeezed until a crack filled the air causing Mirror Master to scream in agony.

That was when Dan dropped Mirror Master who was favoring his now broken arm as he looked at Dan in pure fear before Dan kicked him across the face, knocking him out.

"That was uncalled for!" Flash said as he rushed over to Mirror Master. "You could've killed him."

"Next time I might." Dan said not caring. "As long as he learns not to come back, I'm good."

Flash gave Dan a look of disbelief. "You can't just kill bad guys."

"And why not?" Dan glared at Flash. "You honestly think that locking him up will change anything? That he'll magically reform? He'll just break out again and keep causing trouble. I swear if you guys just sucked it up and ended them then a lot of people would be happier."

With that Dan turned invisible before Flash could say anything else.

Making it back to his new company, Dan changed to his human form as he cracked his neck. "That was a good workout." He muttered looking around to see things going on as what he assumed would be normal.

If you didn't count the people trying to get home before anything else happened.

Shaking his head, Dan continued outside of the company only to stop at seeing a green hawk flying by. 'What the fuck?'

Considering how his Ghost Sense didn't go off, Dan decided to look into that as he went Ghost again after hiding from view.

Following the hawk, Dan saw it land in an alley and change into a green skinned boy wearing a black and purple uniform and a mask that made him look like he had elf ears.

"And what is in here today?" The boy asked himself as he opened the dumpster with a grimace as he pulled out part of a salad that looked like it had mustard on it. "Well it might be garbage, but at least it's food."

"I'm surprise you didn't try to steal anyones food as a bird." Dan said making himself visible as the kid jumped into the air in fear.

"W-Who are you?" The boy asked his animal senses telling him to be wary of him.

"Dan Phantom-." Dan began before the boy had a starry look in his eyes.

"Wowzers, you're Dan Phantom the newest hero?" The boy asked in glee.

'Wowzers?' Dan thought with a weird look. 'Who says that anymore?'

Then the boy have a salute. "Ex-Doom Patrol Member Beast Boy, sir."

"Doom Patrol?" Dan muttered before he remembered seeing a link about them the day he arrived to this world. "What's a Doom Patrol Member doing out here?"

Beast Boy chuckled a bit. "Well, I'm an ex member." He said sheepishly. "I decided to go solo."

"... They kicked you out didn't they?" Dan questioned causing the boy's shoulders to slump.

"Yeah." Beast Boy said with a sigh. "All because I let a bad guy get away to save them."

Now Dan looked surprised, if anything this Doom Patrol should've been grateful to him. "How does that go with you eating garbage?"

"Uh, I don't have any money." Beast Boy answered scratching the back of his mask. "It comes with the green skin so I can't exactly get a job."

On saying that Beast Boy's stomach grumbled causing the boy to hold it in hunger.

"Help him." Danny whispered in his ear.

'Fuck no.' Dan thought heatedly. 'I already have an Alien Girl in my house who barely has a sense of modesty, I am not taking a little green kid in.'

"So you're just going to let him starve?" Danny questioned.

"Well, it was nice meeting you sir." Beast Boy waved as he turned back to his meal and stuck it in his mouth before cringing from the taste.

That did it.

Dan sighed at this.

"Come on." Dan motioned for Beast Boy to follow him.

"Huh?" Beast Boy looked at him curiously.

"I already have an Alien staying with me, why not a green elf-." Dan began before Beast Boy caught what he was saying.

"Really?" Beast Boy had a smile at the thought of not eating garbage again.

Dan looked away and gave a nod hoping he wasn't regretting this.

Beast Boy's smile got wider as he turned to a falcon and followed Dan to the brick house where he turned intangible and went in before Beast Boy flew into an open window.

"Koriand'r." Dan called out. "We have a new guest."

"I'll be there in a minute, Friend Dan."

Then he looked at Beast Boy.

"I'm going to let you in on a secret, but know this I will cause you pain if you let anyone know." Dan said intimidating Beast Boy with a glare as the green elf gulped. "Do you understand me?"

Sweating nervously, Beast Boy rapidly nodded his head before Dan changed to his human form.

"My name is Danny Fenton." Dan told him with a look. "If this gets out I know who talked."

"G-Got it, sir." Beast Boy gave a nod. "How about this, I give you my secret identity in as a compromise?"

Now Dan raised an eyebrow. "What secret identity?" He asked in confusion. "You're green."

Beast Boy went to answer before blinking as he chuckled and took the mask off. "Right, my real name is Garfield Logan."

Dan nodded as the door opened to show Koriand'r in her regular clothes. "Koriand'r this is Garfield, Garfield this is Koriand'r try to get along."

"Hello Friend Garfield." Koriand'r gave a smile as Garfield looked surprised at being refered to as a friend already. "It is nice to meet you."

"Y-You too." Garfield agreed as Dan walked out of the room before Garfield ran after him. "So where am I staying?"

"In here and don't bother me for the rest of the day because I'll be working on something." Dan said to him.

'Like Kory it's only going to be for a few days.' Dan thought already making a mental blueprint of a belt that could change Garfield's image to make him look normal so he would have a shot at a normal life.

"You're really making things better for some people." Danny appeared beside him.

"Shut up." Dan snorted at him.

Wally was sitting in the park, still in Illinois as he thought about what Dan did.

It was almost the brutal thing he has ever seen.

And he wasn't sure if Dan was being at his worst or not.

"What has you down?" A voice caused Wally to snap up and look in disbelief at a black haired young man who sat next to him wearing a dark shirt and regular jeans.

"Dick?" Wally asked in shock. "I thought you were in Jump."

"I moved to Amity Park considering how there's not much crime in Jump." Dick 'Richard' Grayson answered with a shrug. "I'm going to be moving my Nightwing gear here soon as well. And on getting to know this place, I saw you sitting here so I figured I could speak to you Wally, so what's happening?"

"Mirror Master is in the Hospital." Wally admitted with a sigh.

"Oh yeah, I heard about the fiasco at the new Fenton Industries." Dick said thinking about it. "Didn't you team up with this new hero Dan Phantom or something?"

"Y-Yeah." Wally gave a nod.

Dick frowned. "West." He said gaining his attention. "I haven't seen you like this since Barry's death, what is it?"

Wally flinched a bit remembering how he was the third Flash and his Uncle Barry was the original while he was originally a sidekick called Kid Flash.

Nobody knew that the Flash died since he took over, thinking that it was best for Central City to think that nothing happened to him.

"Dan nearly killed Scudder." Wally remembered the incident. "And when I called him out on it, he said that next time he might."

Dick gave a start at hearing that before he frowned. "It's not too unusual for a hero to go that far, there are times when it does happen, rare as they are."

"Yeah." Then Wally forced a grin. "Other than that he was an okay guy, he has a sense of humor, it's buried under a mile of brooding and scowling but it's there."

Dick snorted. "Only you would focus on something like that despite what you said happened."

"Yeah well even if what he did freaked me out, I could tell that he's a good person." Wally said remembering the team up as short as it was. "He kept people away from the fight, helped look for the hostages and even covered my butt in the fight when Mirror Master shot at me. So I guess he's like a powered Batman."

Dick grimaced as he remembered his mentor before they had a falling out.

On remembering that, Wally slapped a hand to his face and groaned. "Sorry for bringing that up, Dick."

"It's alright, I should be over it after two years." Dick said before getting up. "I need to go and check into the hotel, be sure to keep up with me... KF."

Wally grinned at not having been called that in years as he remembered the team-ups he and Dick had as Kid Flash and Robin. "Sure thing, Rob."

As Dan drew the blueprints of the belt out, he looked to the side at a file of scientists to hire for his company.

There was a few of them but the one that stood out was a man named Silas Stone.

Silas was a man from Metropolis who was a widow and raising a teenage son as a single parent.

"I guess I can hire him to help him out." Dan muttered. "His science record is helpful as well."

Shaking his head, Dan continued on the ring, intent on finishing it so he could live in solitude again.

To Be Continued...

Sorry for the long wait and sorry that I didn't have the fight as long as I should've.

I was running out of stuff for the fight even after adding the powers Mirror Master showed in 'The Batman' TV show. I'm also trying to base him off of the Justice League: Doom Mirror Master if you hadn't guessed.

But I bet I surprised people with the appearances of Garfield, Dick and a subtle mention of Victor Stone's father.

Oh and Dick became Nightwing instead of keeping his Robin persona early on and he's seventeen in this as well as Beast Boy being fourteen.

Yes siree, I'm bringing the Teen Titans to Amity Park.

And the reason why Dan decided to let Beast Boy come to his place for awhile was because he now has pity in his soul, pity that he tries to hide but seeing a green skinned kid eating garbage because he can't live a normal life would get to anyone.

Plus he knew that if he didn't then his conscience (Danny) wouldn't shut up.

Now onto Reviews-holy crap!

I have never gotten this many reviews for one chapter.

I mean thirty-three for this last chapter?

Now for your questions. 1) Alright that would be interesting to look into. 2) She will over time. 3) It would make sense if Dan could break Ivy out of her Eco-Terrorist stage. 4) It would be in their characters to do so. 5) In the future, yes. 6) He will overtime. 7) Sometime in the future, yes. 8) Maybe. 9) He will after a few years. 10) Yes it does. 11) They will after a few chapters. 12) Yes I do because they're great ideas. 13) Yes they will. 14) That does sound like something they would do. 15) It would bring a good Batman and Dan team-up that wasn't a part of the JL show. 16) Yes and ou can tell it will be a big fight between Renegade Danny and GOTL Dan. 17) No he's going to keep that power hidden for awhile. 18) You'll see. 19) It is difficult because I want to get to the formation of the League but I don't want to rush it.

Inviso-Al: Actually the next chapter will show the Invasion.

Phantom Fan: Well I hope you enjoy my twist on the Titans that I've been wanting to do for awhile.
