MultiFandomLover99: omg when I was younger I also thought that my stuffed animals would get mad if I didn't have them all in my bed. It became quite the problem since I have a lot of plushies.
Buterflypuss: thank you good chap
Davidscrazy234: ahh, I think your confused. I meant names for random ghost, not Phantom I'm planning on keeping his name the same.
Guest: yeah it's pretty useless to try to stop a fight.
(Guest) Catnip:(Im not sure if I already replied to this but fnf is being weird) sounds a lot like the school that my dad went to.
Bellmitch Kritznovah: the team was just investigating again. Batman is really hard to write so like. I'm glad your enjoying it. Lastly, I could totally see thinking origami was a illness.
YouCanOnlyPretend: fly username, see that I get. Cause like sometimes with animals it's like that. I thought that bunny's were female and rabbits wee male.
RangerHorseTug: yeah I want Retribution to play a roll in pulling Danny out of the control. I'm gonna have them have this big emotional talk, and all that. Retribution was well, revenge for his murder. His obsessed with solving his own murder, bringing himself to justice, and by extension, others unsolved murders. When he was alive he didn't go into forensic science for nothing. Danny's obsession is pretty much protection. So he gets ill if going against it. The murder wasn't nearly as bad as it could've been because his core reasoned that it was to protect his master. Kenvexli is a made up word from the ghost language and it basically means new born ghost, or ghost without a name. There's not really an English equivalent.
Britt299919: I try to upload daily sooo, Batman is really hard to write as I've mentioned before so I'm happy I'm doing a fine job of it. I'm also glad that your happy with my additions to the staff.
I ahm... don't have any excuse for why this didn't go up yesterday. I was tired even though everything was written. Sorry. Also I'm probably gonna explain a bit of how the staff works and why Retribution didn't seem to be affected at first in the next AN chapter cause this one is so long.
WARNINGS: CHARACTERS SEEM OCC? Nope. I've got a plan, there's a reason. Martian and ghost powers are quite similar don't you think? In many ways they are quite similar. Batman occ? Probably. He's hard to write. Everything still centred? Don't know why. It's ruining my aesthetic and I wanna cry.

Chapter 14
And So, He Fell
In which deep rooted poison spreads,
and a member is abandoned.
Conner let out a yell as he charged Black Canary, who used his slightly outstretched hand to grab, and then flip him on to his back. Letting out a grunt of frustration Conner glared for a moment at the woman standing above him, before finally taking the outstretched hand she was offering. "You did well, better than before." She praised, Conners only reply was rolling his eyes and walking away.
Black Canary only sighed, watching the retreating form of Conner as he stormed off.

"And," Robin stretched out the word, as his fingers few across the screen at rapid paces. "Almost" he continued, still stretching out the words. "There!" Robin cheered, fist pumping briefly as files began to rapidly open and load onto the halo-screen.
"Alright man. Time to finally learn something!" Kid Flash—who was stood behind Robin—smirked, his eyes scanning the screen. They hadn't gotten much info, other then of course what they had found out about the circus, and usually missions weren't so secretive. It was weird. Even though all the team members present—Megan, Robin, Kid Flash And Aqualad—knew that it was probably for a reason, they couldn't help it.
"Your oddly good at that." Megan commented moving forward to read one of the pre-opened files. Robins eyes briefly flicked over to hers, smiling he shot her a Thanks before moving to click on one certain file. It expanded, filling up the screen in all its blue glory. There were two pictures, that was the first thing the team noticed, one of a black hair, blue eyed boy—one that looked suspiciously like the boy Robin had met a while back—and one of a white haired, red eyed boy—they didn't quite recognize him, but something in the back of their minds told them that they should—the two pictures, on closer examination appeared to be almost the same boy. It was like they were twins.
Scrolling down revealed writing. Lots of writing. Robin quickly read through the writing, his eyes flicking from word to word. "So," he summed up. "Bats thinks that these two" he pointed to the two boys. "Are the same person?" Megan blinked staring at the photos with a hard expression.
"That doesn't make any sense." She said suddenly, moving forward and brushing past Robin, who looked at her in slight surprise. "See look." She pointed to the two images. "His face." Megan pointed out, staring forward as her other team members blinked in slight confusion. Aqualad and Robin both shared a glance, their eyes meeting before flicking back to the screen. "They're different."
"I guess." Kid Flash said slowly. Moving forward carefully. "If you look, his eyes—not the colour—are kind of different shaped." Kid Flash blinked surprised as Conner suddenly rushed forward and shut off the computer.
"Someone's coming. Shhh." He hushed, glaring in the direction of the door to the room they were currently in. It was then that Black Canary walked in, noticing the way both Megan and Conner seemed to be just glaring holes into her body. She stared at them for a few minutes before walking off to do something.
We should talk like this. Megan announced suddenly, drawing the teams attention to her. It's safer. They nodded slightly unsure before continuing their discussion.
They look different. Megan insisted. See! Look there. She pointed out once more to the now much smaller picture being projected up from a watch on Robins arm.
Sorta. Robin agreed somewhat hesitantly.

"Repercussion Batman heard a voice echo as he crept forward. "What a name!" That was followed by manic laughter, which went on for a few seconds before suddenly stopping. Batman tensed staring down at the now visible man. He was pale, albino, with a long black trench coat with random assortments of small chains and skulls hanging from it, giving the man an overall punk look. "Now run along! Rest up! Do what you must!" The man called with a flick and swish of his hand, before walking off and out of view.
Batman watched as the lined up people—he had noted them when he first saw them, but chose to not pay them too much mind since they were just standing—suddenly slouched, or lifted off the ground somehow. Repercussion suddenly moved, swiftly stalking to one of the younger ones. A white haired boy. The Phantom Of The Circus, Batman recognized. All of the other staff members seemed wary of the new one. Moving here and there avoiding his gaze when it suddenly snapped to them. The two ghost—Repercussion and Phantom—began to heatedly speak in a language Batman could not understand. There aggressiveness only growing more and more until one of the others, a girl with black hair and dark makeup suddenly yelled something in the same language, which caused them both to back down. Phantom retreating behind the woman that had yelled, and Retribution storming off to the end of the cart.
The easiest way to find out what was going on was to find someone, and interrogate them. If they didn't crack get John or Megan—as she was really rather powerful—to read the mind of whoever they were trying to get to talk, and then they'd know everything. The only problem was the fact that he couldn't really swoop into the train cart and just steel one of their people. Well, technically he could, and they were under suspicion, but he'd rather avoid anything illegal.

Batman leaped across the rooftops chasing after the group of floating, hooded people who had just broken into a nearby bank. The leader, or what he assumed was the leader yelled something he couldn't hear, as the two others with him sped up. Leader—as Batman had dubbed what appeared to be the head of the group—had two bags of cash in each of his hands—four bags in total—the two people behind Leader each had two bags held in one hand, and one hand free. Batman suddenly ran forward, jumping into the air and tackling the leader to the ground. The leader—who looked as if he was no older thirteen—let out a surprised screech as the rolled on the ground. Letting out another roar the boy scratched at the bat, money bags thrown half-hazardously to the side.
When the boy suddenly let out a yell of frustration, followed by a string of words Batman could only assume were swears, he glanced up. The two others who were with the boy had flown off and away. Turning back to the boy Batman realized he was running down the alleyway. What the? Batman briefly wondered, before chasing after the boy. Tackling him to the ground after a rather short chase, the mask the boy was wearing cracked. Spitting in half, revealing one shining, dull, red eye. Batman swiftly snapped an inhibitor collar around the boys neck. Watching as the boys eyes were suddenly blown wide, his hands jerking under the pressure of Batman's, who was holding him down. Spinning the boy around he handcuffed him with general power inhibitor handcuffs, only being able to hope that they would work. The boy continued to struggle, even as Batman led him towards the batcar, which was parked nearby.
"Let go of me!" The boy yelled, his thrashing only becoming more and more violent. "You" a grunt "cant" a jerk "do" a snap of teeth "this!" He continued. Batman stayed silent as the boy began to panic more and more. "I have to go!" He shouted suddenly. "No you don't understand! I have t—I can't! Lemme—" he continued to jerk and twist painfully. Batman sighed before sinking a light sedative into his arm. That shut the boy up—for only a minute. "What did you put in me?" The boy turned around with wide scared eyes. "No! Seriously! What did you—" he could feel his legs growing week. "Oh my god" he whispered, eyes flicking from Batman to his arm. "Oh my god." Phantom repeated.
The darkness closed in, Phantom began to cry.

poor danno
Question of the day or whatever: what is the dumbest thing you did while board.
Once I was on a air plane and it was a 8 hour flight so they gave us meals, and in those meals were salt and pepper packets. Tasty salt and Tasty pepper. So me being the board teenager that I was and am, poored all the salt and pepper into a cup of water with only a few drops in it. Then I drank it. It was... well. It was disgusting. I only took a sip thank god but man. That was a mistake. I spend the rest of the flight trying to convince my friends—there was about 40 of us on the flight—to drink it. Only one kid did. He agreed that it was a mistake. I've never seen an airstaff member look so concerned.
