Dick woke up to Danny crying in his sleep as he curled up in a ball.
He started murmuring things in Romanian that dick couldn't even understand. His eyes snapped opened and a small ecto blast shot from his hand and at the wall leaving a small burnt mark.
"Whoa!" Dick held his brother making Danny calm down.
"I-I'm sorry" Danny whimpered.
"No no, it's alright, your alright, shhh, I got you Danny, just relax," Dick stroked Danny's hair calming him down.
"What's the problem?" Bruce walked in with a business suit on.
"What time is it?" Dick asked as Danny stared at Bruce with fear.
"Almost noon," Bruce said gently not wanting to frighten Danny.
"Danny don't freak out, this is Bruce Wayne, he adopted me and is like a father to me, he adopted you too so you won't be alone ever again, you have me," Dick told Danny and he hesitatedly nodded.
"S-so he's not going to hurt me? H-he looks like the man from before... Batman..." Danny stuttered and dick and Bruce paled.
"Um... Bruce?" Dick looked at his mentor/father.
"You can't tell anyone, only Alfred and dick know here so promise me that you'll keep it a secret?" Bruce said gently to Danny with a sad smile and Danny nodded.
"Ok... Does that make you Robin then?" Danny asked his brother who nodded.
"Would you ever tell me?" He asked hugged dicks chest.
"Maybe," Bruce said.
"No that's a no," Danny whispered.
"Probably," Bruce sighed.
"Ok..." Danny whispered and dick rubbed his back.
"You have almost all your bones healed and we can take your stitches out, but how?" Bruce changed the topic.
"I heal faster, cause of my powers," Danny mumbled with his Romanian accent slipping out a little.
"Well that's really good, let's get some food in you," Dick smiled at Danny and stood up and picked Danny up and Danny hung around his neck.
"They only fed me their scraps, is this real food?" Danny looked up with his blue innocent eyes.
"Yep, Alfred is the best cook there is, but you need a healthy diet so you don't get sick from eating the wrong food or to much," dick set Danny on the counter.
"Another master Bruce?" A man walked in seeing Danny who yelled in fear and coward away from Alfred.
"Oh my..." Alfred sighed but smiled kindly at Danny.
"Danny this is Alfred, he's our butler but is also a friend, alfred this is Daniel James Grayson or call him Danny," dick laughed a little.
"Welcome master Daniel, it's a pleasure to meet you," Alfred gave Danny a smile and kind eyes.
"H-hi," Danny felt panic rise in him.
"Would you like something to eat master Daniel?" Alfred asked and Danny's looked up at the butler curious.
"Dick, I have a mission with the justice league so I want you and Danny to stay at the mount justice until... What happened?" Bruce walked in seeing Danny with five cookies in his hands and one in his mouth, dick with two cookies in his mouth and one in each hand.
"Alfred..." Bruce gave him a weary look.
"I'm not sure how I exactly agreed to making the cookies master Bruce," Alfred said amused.
"Whatever, Danny do you want to meet some of dicks friends, there nice," Bruce smiled at he small eight year old.
"I-I don't know..." Danny swallowed the cookie.
"You'll like Wally, he's funny and my best friend, you have to call me Robin though, can't call me Dick, and your name can be..." Dick trailed off.
"I'm half ghost if that helps," Danny said holding an ecto blast in his hand.
"You really are a little phantom," dick smiled and ruffled Danny's hair.
"Your name is phantom," Dick declared.
"Yay! Let's go Robin!" Danny laughed for real like he use to three years ago.
He got on Robin's back and transformed into phantom which he was only wearing a black t shirt and grey shorts that use to be dicks when he was younger and got shrunk in the wash. His hair was white and eyes turned green.
"That's going to take some getting use too," Bruce shook his head.
Robin entered mount justice with Danny next to him and hiding behind his legs.
Danny felt panic rise in him as he heard other voiced and shook a little as he and dick walked to the living room.
"Robbie, I-I don't th-think I c-can d-do this," Danny started to hyperventilate.
"No no, shh it's okay, they're only a year or two older than me, they're my friends, deep breaths Danny shh," Robin rubbed Danny's back as he tried to get his breathing under control even though he's all healed by now since he got proper medical attention.
"They won't hurt you, otherwise they have to go through me," Robin smiled.
"I-I'm not feeling the aster though," robins eyes widen behind the mask and he let out his skin chilling cackle but had no effect to Danny who only though of it as normal since he and dick had similar laughed.
"Oh no, what happened-" Artemis walked to Robin but saw a little boy next to him.
Danny looked at her with wide eyes and clung onto robins one leg.
"Robin, you have a kid on your leg," Artemis pointed out.
"I know,"
"Can I ask why?" She crossed her arms.
"Artemis, don't," Robin warned picking up Danny.
As Robin walked past Artemis she noticed how frightened the child look.
"Hey dude, is this your brother?" Wally zoomed up and Danny yelled and kicked him in the nose.
"Ow! What did I do?!" Wally asked and Danny buried himself in robins chest.
"Phantom that's Wally aka kid flash," Robin laughed a little.
"Why does he have white hair? Who is he?" Connor came in and Danny started to shake even harder looking up at Connor with fear in his eyes.
"el nu va răni pe mine e el ?"(he's not going to hurt me is he?) Danny asked fearfully and Connor looked at him confused and with a small glare since he couldn't understand him.
"No, he's not going to hurt you," Robin held the little boy close.
"What?" Megan walked in and saw the little boy and flew over to him.
"Hi I'm Megan," she said kindly and Danny tried making himself smaller.
"R-Robin, t-there's t-to many p-people," Danny grabbed his brothers shirt and started to cry silently.4
"Sorry guys, this is phantom, we rescued him from the guys in white yesterday, me and batman will be taking care of him, we don't know how long he's been at the guys in white but he's scared of people," Robin held the little halfa close to him.
Everyone's eyes softened up including Artemis and superboy.
"I'm sorry if i scared you," Connor gave the little boy a small smile.
"T-thank y-you for n-not-t hurt-hurting me," He stuttered barely looking at the clone of superman.
"Phantom, no ones going to hurt you, we're all heroes here, if anything they'll help me protect you," Robin said gently to his little brother.
"Who knew Robin was good with kids," Artemis smiled.
"Sigh* he's my brother," Robin said quietly as Danny fell asleep in his arms.
"What? You two look nothing alike," Connor said.
"In his civilian form we look a like, he's half ghost, accordingly to the GIW he's the rarest species of ghost, a halfa," Robin explained and put Danny on the couch with his cape draped over him.
"I can watch him in case he wakes up," Wally said surprising everyone but Robin.
"Who knew baywatch had a soft spot for kids," Artemis smirked.
"Go ahead and tease me for it but yea, I have a soft spot for little kids, usually ten and under for some reason," Wally sat down next to Danny. Everyone nodded at him and Robin gave Wally a nervous look.
"Don't worry man, I'll help you out with this," Wally smiled and Robin sighed and went to go with their friends.
"So your Danny Grayson? Nice to finally meet you little man," Wally looked down at the sleeping boy.
"You'll probably be scared out of your mind with me here and not Robin, probably kick me in the face again," he laughed a little.
"I don't know a lot about you lil D but I can tell already that Robin will probably be really protective over you, maybe even the whole team will be, I hope when your older you could join us, be a leaguer when your older," he brushed some of Danny's white bangs out of his calm face.
"No kid, not person deserves what you've gone through and the sad part is that your eight, so... I'm sorry that it had to be you," Wally sighed and saw Danny snuggle up against his lap using him as a pillow.
"First you kick me in the face, now I'm your pillow," Wally snorted.
"Your lucky that your a cute kid," He put his arms up on the couch.
"When your older... You'll find your own spitfire, don't tell anyone this but I think I might have mine," Wally blushed a little thinking of a pretty girl he's had his eyes on but won't say anything.
"She must be pretty, is it that Artemis girl?" Danny said softly making Wally blush madly and turn pale that the kids been listening.
"I-um, have you been awake this whole time?" Wally asked.
"I woke up a little when you said I kicked you now your my pillow," Danny yawned and giggled.
"Go back to sleep spooky," Wally laughed a little and yawned as well.
"Night Wally," Danny said sleepily and went back to sleep. Wally smiled gently and fell asleep as well.
