Silence was the only thing in the West house after Batman announced what had happened. Green Lantern; John Stewart, Hal Jordan was off world; left, saying that he was going to try to follow her tracks, and maybe, if they were lucky, she had just recently left and not gotten too far.

Her family; of course; was the worst to take the news. Rudy and Mary were crying on the sofa, J'onn having left the woman after she started sobing, with Flash and Iris hugging each other for comfort, but Wally didn't dare cry. He only sped away, leaving everyone but Mary surprised and baffled.

Nightwing quickly made a list of suspects that might know why she ran, and on the last was Speedy; who he heard Dany having an argument about some name; Red Arrow, Wally, her parents, and Robin. They stayed with the family for a few more minutes, but then left, seeing that they needed some time to think things through, and headed to the cave.

There, Red Arrow tried to run, but was stopped by Nightwing, who literally tackled to the floor as soon as they arrived.

"Get off me, you crazy bird!" Roy yelled, kicking and punching, trying to get him off.

But, Nightwing didn't oblige. Instead, he put his arms under Roy's, then moved them so his hands were on the back of his head, not letting him move. Seriously, how Roy let him, he didn't know.

"Roy, what do you know?" He hissed, then felt someone's hand on his shoulder.

He looked up to see Aqualad giving him an apologetic look, then said. "My friend, me and Roy will explain, just please get off of him."

Nightwing gave him a suspicious look, then glared at the back of Roy's head, but got up. Sure, he and Roy were awesome friends, but right now he just wasn't acting like himself, and Nightwing was suspicious.

"What do you two know?" He asked, crossing his arms and glaring.

The whole team had gone off to their rooms by now, or the training room in Superboy's case, which meant they could talk without any problems. Well, except for maybe Superboy's hearing, but that was unavoidable. Roy sighed, then scratched the back of his neck.

"Well, when we left at twelve something, we went to a hospital in Star City, where a friend of her's is staying. We went and entertained the kids there, then we left at about six." Roy started, knowing he was dead even with the amused look Nightwing was giving him.

"What's so bad about that?"

"Well, Nightwing, you might not like what comes next." Roy told him, now giving a pleading look towards Kaldur for him to continue.

Kaldur sighed, then nodded and did so. "After we left the hospital, Dany was saying she should be going home, but Roy nor Speedy wanted her to leave just yet. So, she came along, and Roy took us to some party's that he was invited to."

Yep, now they were both so dead. Nightwing already had the batglare on, and had his arms crossed, but you could see the tension. Roy would never be able to see the daylight again.

"Dany didn't drink much, and neither did me or Roy, but Speedy somehow got a hold of a keg... and he... Well, he had a hangover this morning. And, Dany met some men there, we stopped them from trying anything, but anyone could tell she didn't like it. Maybe, she ran away because of that." Kaldur finished, showing his thoughts.

But, Nightwing didn't listen to that part. He only heard until "She met some men," and he exploded. He yelled so much, that the rest of the team ran to see what had happened, to find both Roy and Kaldur cowering behind the sofa, with Nightwing trying to get to them, with Batman (When did he get here?) holding him back.


Wally didn't know where he was going. After he had heard that Danielle had ran away, he couldn't help but feel guilty. 'And that's how you should feel.' A very loud voice in his mind told him. If he hadn't exploded at his mom that night, he wouldn't have found out her origins, and he wouldn't have said so many harsh things.

'You were having a bad day. You should be allowed to make mistakes.'

He cursed at the voice, while running over the desert. He was allowed to make mistakes, but not something as big as making his sister run away from home. He could fell the tears running down his cheeks, but he didn't even try to clean them. He felt like crap for doing that to his sister. She didn't deserve that. It wasn't her fault that man raped his mother, and it's not her fault Mary still decided to have her.

He didn't even stop when he felt the rain drops hit his head. Maybe he would get a cold, that would get worse, and he would die like he deserved. But, before his thoughts could get anymore morbid, he tripped on a rock, rolling on the floor until he came to a halt almost ten feet away, in front of a man on a horse.

He didn't even notice the shadow, for he succumbed to his sobs, curling up into a ball, and just letting all of his pain flow out of his body in the form of tears.

Now, Greg Saunders didn't expect to ever see a speedster in his life, especially because he did things some heroes didn't. Yes, he was the hero Vigilante, but some people didn't agree with him. Yeah, he killed, but that was to bad people, not once had he hurt an innocent. Right now he was in the Vigilante persona, riding horseback back to his home.

He got down from his horse, making sure to not bother the boy, then crouched next to him. Putting a hand on his back, he frowned, knowing something really wrong must've happened.

"Hey there, little filly, what's wrong?" He asked, making the boy gasp.

Wally jumped away from the stranger, fearing for who it might be. But, he was surprised to see a cowboy, even though he couldn't see his face.

"Hey now, Ah ain't gonna hurt ya." Vigilante said, getting up slowly and taking a step back.

Wally eyed him carefully, then decided he looked harmless enough, and he could easily get away if he tried anything, then sat down on the sand, the tears falling but not a sound escaping.

"It's my fault she's gone. I feel so stupid." Wally told no one in particular, looking at the horizon.

It was starting to rain harder now, and Vigilante was getting worried. There was no doubt in his mind that this was the hero from the twin cities, which made it even harder to believe. Every time he saw him he was smiling and happy, and now he was crying and insulting himself.

"C'mon kid, don't want yuh gettin' anythin'." Vigilante told him, moving towards the boy, who didn't even flinch.

"Why? So I can keep hurting my family and friends?" He asked, now turning to Vigilante.

His eyes were so hollow and lost, making Vigilante stop walking to ponder why. Then, his mind drifted to the last time he saw eyes that green, but he quickly shun those thoughts. He had hurt her too much, and it was better that she thought he was dead, rather than giving her hope.

"Look kid, Ah don't know what happened with yuh, but Ah know as a hero, Ah got ta help anybody in need of it... And you are." He said, taking another step towards Wally.

The boy sighed, then, with the help of Vigilante, got up and got on the the horse. Vigilante opted to walk to the house, seeing that it wasn't too far away and he was pretty sure this city boy wouldn't like riding too close to an old man like him.

Once in the house, with Wally having a blanket wrapped around him and a cup of hot chocolate, and rain pounding on the roof, Vigilante decided to take off the bandana and let the boy see him. He figured it was only fair, seeing that he already knew the boy's hero name. Plus, he could trust him. Danielle hung around with the Flash's.

"Now, why exactly do yuh hate yerself?" Greg asked, sitting in front of Wally with his own mug.

Wally eyed him curiously, but didn't answer, and asked, "Why did you take of your mask?"

Greg smiled at him, then leaned back on the sofa. "Well, seein' that yuh hang around mah almost daughter, Ah think it would be okay. Plus, Ah already know yer Kid Flash."

Wally's eyes were huge at the explanation, making Greg chuckle. "Man, I need to get some lessons from the bats." He mumbled to himself, making Greg laugh, and that laugh got Wally to crack a small smile.

After his laughter was gone, Greg took a sip from his drink, then turned to Wally again. "Now that we had a laugh, how 'bout yuh tell me what's wrong little filly?"

Wally sighed, passing a hand through his wet hair, then said, "It's a long story."

Greg leaned back on the sofa, getting comfortable, then looked at Wally again. "Ah got time."

Wally gave him a small smile, then started telling the story from when Dany arrived in their lives.

So, I decided to do one chapter the heroes, another Dany. Hope you like this, and please leave your thoughts, complaints, and questions in reviews.

Three reviews and I'll update tomorrow.
