Soooo sorry about the long wait, but 8th Grade is FINALLY behind me and I can get back to the story. I will try to make it as long as I can due to how long I have been gone. Thanks for all the reviews and support, especially Sin-NaMe for contacting me on FaceBook and staying updated on my story. Ok on with the story!
It was day three, and the only indication that the Fenton siblings might be getting better was that they were tossing and turning in their unconscious states. Raven had gone into Danny's mind yesterday to try and pull him out, but when he wasn't ready to wake up, she stayed in his mind with him. Robin had no such power, so he settled for grasping Danielle's hand tight and whispering for her to get up. The other three Titans had come into the medical room earlier to try and get him to do something.
[Flashback]
"C'mon, Rob!" Cyborg pleaded "There ain't nothing' you can do! Dani would want you to eat, not die of starvation!" Now, Cyborg was persistent, but no one was more stubborn than the Boy Wonder, especially when he has his mind set on staying somewhere.
"No." was his short and calm reply.
"Friend Robin," Starfire began as she floated towards him. "though I do not fully understand Earth culture, this is… unhealthy, yes?" she questioned.
"I'm fine." was his, once again, short reply.
"C'mon dude! EAT SOMETHING!" Beastboy yelled.
There was no reply. Beastboy's shoulders slumped in defeat.
"C'mon guys." Cyborg said to the other two. "Leave him to his thoughts and brooding." after that, he set a tray of food next to Robin and began to leave with the others, smiling as he saw Robin grab a piece of bread.
[End Flashback]
Now the other three Titans were in the living room/ ops center just thinking. Beastboy then brought up what was confusing the three of them for the past few days.
"How come Raven and Robin didn't freak out when they saw Danny and Dani transform, I know that I freaked out." he said.
"I don't know Grass stain. Maybe they already knew." Cyborg replied.
"Then are we not worthy of the trust? Why only friends Robin and Raven?" Starfire asked in dismay. "I thought they said we were worthy of the trust…perhaps they had found out once they began their relationships with friends Fentons?" Starfire was trying very hard to find the reasoning for not being told. They all just looked at the ground in thought.
[Dani's Medical Room]
Robin had finished his meal and sat next to Dani once again. He took off his mask and rubbed his eyes, the door was locked so no one could get in. once he opened his eyes, a more stunning blue than the two Fenton's were revealed. Now sat Dick Grayson in a Robin costume.
"C'mon, you can't leave yet, we just got together…please." he begged as he grabbed her hand. He suddenly felt a jerk and fell into darkness, hand still intertwined with Danielle's.
Robin got up with a groan, rubbing his head.
"Where am I?" he wondered out loud.
"More like, 'how did you get here'… because neither of us can do that kind of thing." came a voice that he thought he would never hear again. He turned around slowly and then his face lit up with joy that no one has ever seen on the Boy Wonder.
"Dani!" he screamed as she jumped into his arms. "I thought I lost you." he whispered as he hugged her. She buried her face in his chest.
"Nope." came her muffled reply, she lifted her head to looked at him and she froze.
"What?" he asked.
"I was beginning to think you never took that thing off." she said. "You have more beautiful blue's than Danny and I do." she added as she stared into his revealed eyes.
"Huh?" was his oh-so-intelligent reply as he reached up to his unmasked face in shock. "Crap." he muttered.
"Don't worry." she replied, pulling his hands from his eyes. "You're in my head right now, no one will find out." she assured, she then looked troubled. "I feel like I've seen you before…the non-masked you." she said in confusion.
"Well, you probably did, they're still putting me on the news even after I left Gotham. Have you ever seen reports on Richard Grayson?" he asked. Her eyes widened slightly.
"You mean the adopted son of Bruce Wayne, the one whose parents were… oh my god, Rob I am so sorry." she said, hugging him as realization hit her.
"It's ok. It hurts, but I can't let it hold me back." was his reply. "So…where are we?" he asked.
"Vlads lab." she replied. "The whole time I've been out, it's been replaying the last time he was cruel to me." she explained.
"And when was that?" he asked. She got a ghost of a smile on her face.
"When he tried to melt me into ectoplasmic goop, and Danny came in to save me." she replied. She looked over at Robin to see a mix of horror and confusion on his face. "when Danny and him were fighting, Danny knocked him into a machine he was building that developed ectoplasmic electricity made specifically for Halfa torture. He got electrocuted and came out all 'peace-and-love' so we figured it fried his bad dude brain." she explained. Whe he still looked confused, she faced palmed. "Oh yeah… by the way, Vlad is half-ghost too." she said with a sheepish smile.
"Oh, Ok." he said slowly. "So how come it's taking you two so long to heal, don't ghosts heal really fast or something?" he asked. He didn't like not understanding things.
"Yeah, they do." she replied. "But Danny and I are only half ghost, and when we pass out, our ghost healing can't take over because we would have to be in our ghost form for that. Certain powers don't work in human form, like the ghostly wail, fast ghost healing is another. Other powers only work at half power. The only answer I came up with for that is that our human form is much weaker because our ghost form fully activates the ectoplasm infused in our D.N.A." she finished by taking a deep breath, having explained all that in one breath…hey, just because she barely need to breath every hour, doesn't mean she can talk that much without losing her breath.
Robins eyes were spinning. "Uhh, thanks for the…lengthy explanation, but I was just wondering about the ghost healing." he stated trying to get his brain to catch up.
"I know." she said with a wink. "But that eliminated a few other questions you might have had later." then she put a finger to her chin in thought. "By the way… how did you get in here? My mind doesn't exactly have a door that says 'Come in any time!' so I don't see how this is possible." she said. Robin shrugged.
"I have no clue, I just grabbed your hand again after I had finished eating and-" he was cut short by Dani smiling extremely wide.
"So you finally ate! I don't know how, but I knew you haven't been eating, then a few minutes before you showed up, I wasn't worried about you dying of starvation any more!…that's really weird." she finished thoughtfully.
"Yeah…" he said slowly. "Any how, like I was saying before," he said, looking at her as she smiled sheepishly. "I don't know how I got in here, but do you think you have enough energy to wake up so we can both get out?" he asked. She shrugged.
"I guess I could try." she said, grabbing Robin's hand and closing her eyes. Her world suddenly shifted, but into her and Danny's room in Amity Park.
"Dani?" they heard from behind them. They turned around to see Danny sitting on his bed, and Raven sitting on Danielle's bed, looking at them in confusion. Before Dani could reply Raven interrupted.
"Robin." she said, and he turned to look at her. She made a circling motion with her finger around her eyes to indicate that he didn't have his mask on.
"I know." he replied. "There isn't much I can do about it, I came into Dani's head without it on, and I don't even know how I got in, so I couldn't get out. Now the question is: why are we now in Danny's head instead of the medical Room?" he stated. Danny cleared his throat. Everyone turned to look at him.
"Probably because me and Danielle have to wake up together." he said. Robin and Raven nodded, while Dani grumbled about Danny calling her Danielle and not Dani.
Danny got up and held Raven's hand, while Dani kept her grip on Robin's. Danny then reached out for his sister's hand and they all closed their eyes, there was a bright light before all four woke up.
[Danny's Medical Room]
Raven and Danny awoke abruptly, looked around the room, slightly discombobulated, and their eyes lit up with happiness.
"So, all you had to do to wake up was get to Dani?" she asked.
"Well. Yeah." he replied sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck.
"I'm just happy you're awake." she said, as she grabbed him by the shirt, and pulled him in for a kiss. On the other side of the room, two light bulbs blew out, but they paid no attention.
[Dani's Medical Room]
"Gyaah!" was the exclamation as Dani jerked awake in her room, accidentally bumping heads with Robin as he lifted his head off her bed.
"Ahh!" he moaned as he clutched his head.
"Sorry." she said sheepishly as she rubbed the back of her neck the same way her brother did a second before.
"It's fine." he said. "You should probably 'ghost up' if you want to completely heal." he said.
"Oh yeah!" she said as she transformed, her brother doing the same in the other room. The effect was almost instant, her skin became less pale and any cuts or bruises began to heal. Once she felt better, she transformed back. Then she smacked her forehead.
"What's wrong?" Robin asked.
"The others know our secret." she replied.
"And they are very good at keeping secrets." he said, holding her hand in between his hands. Her stomach than growled and she looked down with a blush. Robin laughed.
"It's not funny! I'm hungry!" she defended. He put his hands up.
"Ok, Ok. Lets get Danny and Raven and go get something to eat." he said as he started out the door.
"Wait!" Dani called. He turned towards her right as she slapped his mask back onto his face.
"Oh! Jeez, thanks Dani." he said, grabbing her hand and giving her a quick peck on the cheek before leading her out the door and towards her brothers medical room.
"Danny! Raven! We're gonna go get something to eat! You should come since neither of you have eaten!" Robin called, knocking on Danny's medical room door. Danny opened the door, and the first thing he did once he got passed the Boy Wonder was hug Danielle.
"Alright, let's go. I'm starving." he said as they headed towards the kitchen/living room/ ops center… sheesh, for such a huge tower, things are very close together.
As they entered the room, the other three Titans stared back at them. Their face registered shock, joy, and excitement.
"HEY! Y'all are a'right! that's great!" Cyborg exclaimed, sweeping them up in a huge, cybernetic, bear hug.
"Alright dudes! I knew you'd pull through!" Beastboy cheered, patting the Fenton siblings on the back.
"Oh, friends! It is most glorious that you have come into good health again!" Starfire squealed, pulling them into a tight hug that they had to phase out of.
"That is something I must…get used to, correct?" she questioned. They nodded. While this was happening, Robin and Raven had gone into the kitchen and made lunch. Everyone sat down to eat.
By the time they were done with lunch, Beastboy had called almost every Titan to alert them of the news of 'Skadus and Riqis' waking up. All the Titans knew about the fight, and that Skadus and Riqis being the heroes. Only The Herald knew the siblings secret identities and promised to keep it to himself. So once they finished eating, Danny and Danielle transformed into their ghostly counterparts, and the guests began to arrive.
As Skadus spoke to all the guests, Riqis stayed closer with Speedy and Kid Flash, and of course Robin. Somehow Riqis wasn't surprised to find out that the three boys used to be great friends, and even know each others secret identities. Both Speedy and Kid Flash, now known to Riqis as Roy Harper and Wally West respectively, were great to talk and joke with. They were told about Riqis's human half, though they couldn't be shown in a room with so many people. They were pretty much instant friends. As afternoon gave way to night, Titans East, minus Speedy, and all Honorary Titans, minus Kid Flash, left. Speedy and KF stayed the night, seeing Skadus and Riqis transform into Danny and Danielle, and just having teenage fun.
Ok! Next chapter should be up in a few minutes! It is the ending to this story, and it's just silly, talking about seven months later and what not. I WILL HAVE A SEQUEL! I just don't know when. The sequel will also mix with the newer cartoon, young justice. I know you might not like that, but it has been bouncing around in my head for a couple of months, soooo, sorry if you no likey.
