Here you go, enjoy and review.

Denial

Kaldur and Superboy were sparring in the training area while rest of the team was watching, though M'gann and Artemis decided to stay away from the boys for a bit of gossiping. "Kaldur is nice, handsome, commanding. You should totally ask him out." Artemis said watching the spar.

M'gann smiled as she crossed her arms. "No, he is like family, but you know who would make the cutest couple? You and Wally." They looked at the speedster that was eating burrito and then she continued. "You are so full of passion and he is full of…"M'gann didn't know what to say.

"It?"Artemis finished for her friend and after a small pause girls started to giggle.

The sound of the upper level portal that leads to Red Tornado's room opened up as he descended to the ground. Turning he started towards the computer before Wally ran up next to him.

"So Red got a mission for us?" Wally asked hopefully.

"Missions are the Batman's responsibility." Red Tornado explained slightly confused on why they continued to ask him this despite knowing that.

"Yeah well The Batman is doing the dynamic duo thing with The Robin." Wally told him. "But you are going somewhere a hot date or a missión." He said with a poor French accent on the last word.

"If we can be of help…." Aqualad said trailing off who like Kid Flash was getting bored sitting around doing nothing for last couple of days.

Red Tornado seemed to consider this for a moment before pressing another key on the computer bringing up an image of an old man. "This is-" Red Tornado began only to be cut off by Harry.

"Kent Nelson."

"You know him Harry?" Kid Flash asked.

"Well, he was a charter member Justice Society, the predecessor of Justice League. Dr Fate to be exact, he is quite famous in magical circles and he is also my great-grandfather, raised me and taught me everything about magic." Harry answered.

"Of course, he was the Earth's sorcerer supreme." Aqualad said realizing where he recognized the name from.

"Yes and he has been missing for 23 days and while he may simply be on one of his walkabouts. But in his home sits the helmet of Fate the source of his mystic power and it is unwise to leave the helmet unprotected for so long."

Wally snorted and whispered to Artemis. "More like Doctor Fake the guy has some advance technology and Gandalf's it up for the ladies. Guy is a total sham."

"Wally what did I say about talking about things you have little to none expertise?" Harry asked.

"Not to?"KF answered.

"Correct."Harry said while rest of the team was suppressing giggles."The last time I heard he was in New Orleans tracking down Madame Xanadu, the real one, since the only time you can meet her is during meetings of Sentinels." He continued.

"So we should go there?"Kaldur asked.

"No, it was 3 days ago and he can apparate all over country. We should better start with the Tower." Harry answered.

"Tower?" Artemis asked.

"Tower of Fate it is where helmet is located. Since my emancipation he returned to live in the Tower. We still keep in contact to make sure that the other is alive."

"Then we should wait until you make that portkey thingy and head off."Artemis said.

"Sorry but I don't have clearance to bring people with portkey into the Tower, so we are going with bioship there." Harry explained.

"Why can't you create portkey and we will arrive next to the Tower?" Wally asked.

"Three decades back Kent created a very crafty anti-portkey ward that covers ten mile radius and do not disrupt electronics, though usage of Zeta tubes is also impossible." Harry answered.

"I prefer bioship over portkey anyways."Superboy said while M'gann followed him.

As they flying to the Salem Artemis spoke up. "If it is not a problem can tell us about Salem trials? The truth."

"1692, three years after signing of the International Statute of Secrecy that resulted in hiding everything magical from No-Maj. The woman in question decided to play some magical pranks and it ended up with such a tragedy. Non magicals actually never caught her only three month after the incident aurors were able to track her down and she got a twenty year sentence in the Fridge, because her stupidity cost lives of twenty people."Harry told the story.

"The Fridge?"M'gann asked

"Magical prison initially was located somewhere in Sierra Nevada but nowadays located in Alaska don't know where exactly."Harry answered

"So, you were raised here?" Kaldur asked.

"Only until I was four, which is when Inza died, she was Kent's wife and my great-grandmother after her death I couldn't live there constantly and I practically begged Kent to move out of the Tower to the vinery in California that belonged to my family for the last two hundred years." Harry explained with sadness.

"Sorry." Kaldur started to apologize.

"Don't be it's been almost decade since she moved to her next great adventure. I am already got used to the fact that I won't see her again anytime soon. Although this wasn't easy for both of us. Rasing a child while you are almost century old is not an easy task." Harry answered.

"Wait, how old is he?"Artemis asked."He doesn't look older than seventy."

"Two month ago he turned 106."Harry said.

"Wow." Artemis exclaimed.

"It was challenging for him since neither magical or nan-magical schools can challenge me so he was the one to give me education." Harry said but then he stopped and said."We arrived."

"There is nothing in here." Wally waved his hand through the empty space.

Harry rolled his eyes, stepped forward and disappeared, few seconds later his head popped out. "Do you need an additional invitation?" Which was quite creepy since rest of his body was invisible.

"So what do you think?" Artemis asked with a slight smirk as the building came into view. "Adaptive micro-optic electronics combined with phase shifting?"

"Yes thank you!" Kid Flash said not caring that it was Artemis he was thanking.

"Actually that is Notice-me-not and muggle repelling charm. It makes you ignore the tower and wish to get out of the area." Harry answered.

As the door closed they saw that it disappeared.

"Aaah where the door did go?" Wally asked

"Security measure." Harry answered.

Then the illusionary form of Kent Nelson appeared in front of the team. "Hello Harry, it is so unusual for you to bring guests here and so many of them. Please state your purpose and intent."

Wally looked at M'gann and decided to talk. "We are true believers…" But he didn't finish because he got hit by Harry's cane."Aw, why did you do it?"

"Ok, next time you try to spring security of this place I won't help you, and you should know it that while Kent is out of Tower security is in kill on sight mode." Harry answered, and then he turned to illusion. "We are here to check on Helmet of Fate and get any clues on whereabouts of the real you."

"You may pass." Illusion stated and disappeared opening an entrance to the maze.

"Careful, the place is confusing." Harry said pointing to the stairs that were upside down and doors that seemingly were leading nowhere, the group was walking in silence when wizard suddenly stopped.

"Two intruders and Kent as hostage just entered the Tower."Harry announced as he was pulling out of his pouch shrunk bow and quiver for Artemis and water bearers for Aqualad.

"How do you know?"Superboy asked.

"I am keyed into the wards of this place enough to get such information."Harry answered."Get ready they are coming from this way."

The moment one of the doors opened Harry summoned Kent to his side, while Artemis and Aqualad shot at the assailants. "What a twist Klarion and Abra working together and we get going."

"I agree with you Harry." Kent said opening the closest door and taking his cane from there, and then he used it to get rid of bindings. "Quickly get in there." Kent taped one of the walls creating elevator and team followed sorcerer inside.

As the door closed they could hear Clarion throwing tantrum. "I want the helmet! I want it! I want it! I want it! I want it! I want it! I want it!" He was sending blast after blast at the door causing it to shake. At the same time Abra rolled his eyes because a billion year old creature acted like a kid.

Inside of an elevator, teens stood around the old man. "I'm Kent Nelson by the way."

"Harry told us."M'gann said.

"It is an honor to meet you."Aqualad added.

"How can you be so casual?"Artemis asked.

"Not the first time someone tries to break into the Tower."Harry said.

"Well miss…" Kent started

"Artemis."

"Well Artemis, we are up against an opponent with potent mystic powers." Kent said

Wally scoffed, "Abra Kadabra! Please Flash proved he used futuristic technology to mimic magic." Wally seemed happy to once again be able to prove he was right. "Guy is all show no biz." Wally dismissed waving his hand.

"Your right." Kent agreed.

"No I'm- wait did you just agree?" Wally questioned having been ready for the elderly man to disagree.

"Yes, you are that right Abra is a charlatan but the boy that was with him Klarion, he is a genuine lord of chaos the natural enemy of a lord of order, like Doctor Fate."

Wally snorted "you are a lord of order?"

Kent instead of being insulted just laughed. "No, I'm just an old coat that he used to put on." he then pulled out and opened a pocket watch. "At least until my wife Inza taught me there was more to life than that." he sighed lost in memories. "She was a real pistol." closing the watch he smiled. "Anywho Klarion wants the helmet with its power nothing could stop him. He would turn the world into his own personal playground of pandemonium." The elevator dinged letting group out where they saw Klarion and Abra throwing attacks at them.

"This way!" Nelson ordered slamming his cane against a giant bell causing it to echo across the endless staircases.

"NO! NO! NO!" Klarion shouted flying into the bell after the group.

As group appeared on the roof of the Tower they saw Helmet. Arcane saw Klarion sending a blast into Kent who was running to pick the Helmet. Harry was able to conjure a marble wall last second to protect his mentor.

"NO!"Klarion shouted as Kent put the Helmet of Fate on.

"Chaos is not allowed into the domain of order." Dr Fate announced.

"Ha I will defeat you as your host is old and weak." Klarion said.

"He is old but definitely not weak."Nabu answered.

Nabu fought Klarion while Harry was assisting, until he moved his attention to the Klarion's cat. Arcane sent a few blasting curses its way leading to the discovery of witch boy's weakness. As soon as everything went awry Klarion decided to bail out. "You cheaters, attacking my poor cat."

As the battle ended Nabu approached Harry and said. "I am sorry." Then took the Helmet off.

"No!"Harry said catching Kent." Please don't die, please."

"Sorry kid but we both know it is my time to go, I always wanted to pass away in a blaze of glory. Don't worry I will pass a hello to Inza from you. Stand tall and become a hero that will make us proud. Will you?"Kent used his last strength to kiss Harry's forehead, closed his eyes and smiled. Kent Nelson died at age 106.
