"Anything we should know about them before we find them?" Kaldur was seated in the bioship turning to Danny who sat to the left of him.

"They may come off as purely stupid, which is sorta true, but they are dangerous when it comes down to it." He felt a bit flustered about the fact everyone was staring at him.

Danny's eye's darted away from theirs and intently stared at the wall in front of him. M'gann's Bioship was extraordinary and he could imagine how his family and friends would react. Tucker would geek out over the technology, Sam would be at awe at the living creature, Jazz would want to analyze the mind of the ship, and his parents would want to go straight to what the ship is made of.

"Why are you smiling?" Kid Flash smirked at Danny making him drop the grin.

"No reason." He dismissed the question.

"Well, there has to be a reason otherwise-"

"Kid Flash, we need to focus on the mission." Kaldur stopped the Speedster from running his mouth. "As you were saying, what are these men capable of?" His face turned from irritation to a confident appearance.

"You guys did see the videos, right?" "The Guys in White sees ghosts as beings without any sort of feeling, rather it be physical or mental." He told them and saw the way M'gann tensed and how Conner gripped the armrests.

"How could someone disregard anything in that way?" Zatanna asked watching the blue glow ahead.

"Because they are cowards who want to feel any sort of power. People who see themselves as superior and stronger will never have empathy for the ones they can crush. " Robin growled out.

"I think they are just straight up bastards." Artemis mumbled.

"Language!" Kaldur gave the archer a small glare.

"How did you guys know the location would be Madison, Wisconsin?" Artemis asked the trio.

"Ah well, let's just say a crazed up fruitloop resides there and they may be looking for him still." He rubbed the back of his neck and his voice seemed to go up an octave.

"Uh-huh." Artemis rolled her eyes.

"You have one too?" Wally asked wide eyed.

"Have one too?" Danny asked back in confusion.

"A crazed up fruit loop." He said again. Wally's green eyes held a mischievous glint to them. He looked odd and the fact his hair was a bit messier than usual added to the factor.

"Who do you know that is a crazed up fruit loop?" Robin rolled his eyes.

"Uh, hello!" Kid waved his hands all around and gestured to where Artemis was sitting.

"What did you say, Baywatch!" Artemis was enraged and pointed an arrow at him.

"No weapons in the Bioship!" Kaldur lectured and she growled before putting it down.

"I'm confused, how is Artemis sugary cereal?" Conner's brow was furrowed and he held a deep scowl.

"I am as well, how does cereal even relate to our mission?" M'gann asked from the front of the ship.

"Look what you two idiots did now!" Artemis pointed at Wally and Danny. "You are confusing them."

"Way to go, Kid Idiot." Robin looked peeved but his eyes were bright.

"They are just saying that the man and Artemis are crazy." Zatanna informed the two of them who still looked lost.

"Land dwellers are as odd as you said, my King." Kaldur whispered causing only Danny and Conner to hear. Danny held back a snicker at the confession from the usual stoic leader.

"I still don't get what fruit loops have to do with it." Conner grumbled.

"I don't either." M'gann seemed upset because she thought she understood Earth phrases.

"Just drop it." Robin sighed.

"Artemis isn't crazy." Conner huffed and everyone ignored the small shout of thank you from the blonde.

When they finally reached Madison they stopped at an empty lot to Danny's command. It was an enormous lot that held many hedges and trees.

"Why here, I thought we were following Zatanna's magic." Artemis asked. The group was looking around trying to find any importance with the land.

"This is where someone I know lives and who the Guy's in White are also interested in." Danny explained walking to the center.

"Why would anyone live without shelter?" Conner asked.

"Where I am from he has a mansion built here." Danny replied and kneeled in front of a mound of mud.

"You think something may have been left here?" Aqualad also knelt by the dirt.

"Yeah." Danny pushed away the mud with Aqualad's help. It turned out with nothing being discovered.

"Great, this is pointless." Artemis crossed her arms looking down at them. The air felt nice after being in that ship for hours so honestly, she didn't mind the stop.

"Hey, Zee could you see if something is here?" Robin asked the magic user.

"I could, however, I don't know if I can retract the Guy's in White being my magic is already being drained at a fast rate. I'm sorry I can only do one thing. If only I was stronger." She sighed and Robin patted her shoulder.

"You are doing a lot for us, Zee." He grinned up at her and she smiled back.

"Don't you have a gadget for this, Rob? Batman is so paranoid I imagine he makes you carry everything known to man, or even unknown to man." Wally mocked and choked up a bit when he saw Robin actually pull a small device from his belt.

"I have a tracker that Batman made to find unworldly objects." Robin cackled at the red head's face and waved the bat shaped device in front of the speedster.

"Unworldly?" Danny asked, narrowing his eyes at the tracker. It was Robin's turn to choke up a bit, he realized how bad it looked that he just happened to have a tracker that was made for that purpose, Batman originally made it to find Danny in case of something happening.

"Uh, you know like magic or alien technology." He smiled at the half ghost who just looked annoyed.

"Okay fine, I told you I wouldn't lie. B made this to track you, but I think it may find something that has a ghostly residue or the sort." Robin replied honestly.

"Thank you." Danny gave a real smile back.

Robin tapped the device a couple of times. The screen showed a radar that was spinning with a green glow. Robin moved it around before it gave a small ring and the screen showed a bright neon dot a few paces from them.

"Over there!" Robin pointed and the team followed the bird. The area was a bit west of the area where they were searching. It seemed as if nothing was there as the ground didn't look disturbed.

Danny phased his hands into the spot where Robin said and soon felt a familiar object that he grasped and pulled up.

"Why didn't you do that earlier?" Artemis asked referring to the mud he dug in a little bit ago. He ignored her as did everyone else when they saw the object in his grasp.

"It that…" M'gann trailed.

"A Fenton thermos?" Danny looked at it in shock.

"Should we open it?" Wally wondered out loud leaning over Danny's shoulder to inspect the thermos.

"We don't know if there's a ghost inside, idiot!" Artemis smacked the back of his head.

"There is." Danny showed them the emerald colored light that glowed in the dusky sky.

"Keep it safe, for now, we have to find the Guy's in White." Kaldur commanded. Danny looked ready to object but soon nodded and they went back to the ship.

"Can you guys please hurry because I can't hold this tracking spell forever." Zatanna asked the group.

"Our apologies, of course." Aqualad formally said and they were off once again.

"So, another thermos." Kid thought out loud and Danny could just nod quietly while staring heavily at the dirty thermos, although he could still make out his family's symbol.

When they landed at the spot Zatanna's spell took them it was pitch dark out. They turned into their covert uniforms and exited the ship that was soon camouflaged.

"Link us up." Aqualad told Miss Martian who nodded back.

'Link is up.' Miss M thought in the link.

'I'm here.' Zatanna said.

'As am I.' Robin replied.

'Here.' Phantom said.

'You know it!' Kid Flash happily spoke a little too loud in their heads.

'Shut up, Baywatch.' Artemis glared.

'We need to be serious.' Aqualad lectured them.

'Hm.' Superboy just gruffed out like he always does.

'They are located somewhere around here, I am not skilled enough to lead directly to them, sorry.' Zatanna apologized.

'You are the whole reason why we even are near them.' Robin reassured.

'Get a room!' Wally rolled his eyes.

'Shut it!" Robin scowled.

'Will all of you shut up! I don't like all the yelling going on in my head.' Conner yelled making them wince.

They looked at the area Zatanna informed the possible places they could be located. There were three buildings and a field of tall grass.

'Thank you, Superboy. We are going to split into four teams of two. Superboy and Zatanna will check that building in front of us, Artemis and Robin will check the eastmost storage house, Kid Flash and I will check the largest building, and Phantom and Miss Martian will check the field. Superboy and Zatanna will be a good team being their senses are heightened. Superboy can check for sounds and Zatanna can check for the supernatural, Artemis and Robin you two are the stealthiest and can carefully check the storage house without missing a detail, Kid and I will quickly check the largest building, and Phantom and Miss Martian's invisibility will keep them hidden in the field.' Aqualad explained and the groups nodded and went off to their duties.

Danny followed Miss Martian, both of them flying to the grassy field. It didn't appear to be any special and he couldn't imagine them even being in the field, however, they have to make sure they leave every stone unturned.

The stars in the sky were really clear tonight and he couldn't help but to glance at them while they searched near each other. Miss Martian must have noticed and spoke to him in their personal group link.

'They are very bright tonight.' She said in the link causing him to blush in embarrassment of being caught gazing instead of searching.

'They are always so serene and comforting.' He told her, weaving through the grass searching for any signs of the agency.

'They are just as pretty close up.' She informed him.

'I am totally jealous.' He sighed out loud and breathed in the fresh cool air.

'The stars remind me of my home planet when I would think about the day I would finally leave Mars behind.' She gently said in a hushed tone.

'You wanted to leave?' He asked and immediately regretted the personal question.

'It wasn't the best experience living there.' She replied and her voice wavered a bit.

'I'm sorry.' He responded.

They searched further apart to cover more ground. Although, both of them expected the other groups to find something before they would.

'They remind me of when I was younger.' He told her. 'I always wanted to be an astronaut and the thought of being so close to the stars would make me so hopeful.'

'Hopeful?" She wondered.

'Yeah, I hoped to be the one to discover the mysteries that space holds. I also would wonder how it would feel to land on a planet, I think I would be filled with awe.'

'Perhaps one day we can go visit one of the planet's inhabitants.' Her voice was kind and reminded Danny of Jazz in a way.

'Really?'

'Mhm, there are tons of species in space. There is the Green Lantern Corps on the planet Oa and even the amazing Tamaraneans on Tamaran. There are so many different amazing planets out there.' She told him.

'That's cool!' He was fascinated by her words. 'What are they like?'

'I can tell you after the mission if you would like.' Her words were filled with happiness from someone being interested in the same thing as her.

'Oh right, the mission.' He sighed.

'Hey, why doesn't Robin use that scanner thing again?' She asked her.

'I am unsure, you can ask him you know.'

'Uh, yeah I knew that.' He laughed it off.

'Hey, Robin, why don't you use that scanner thing again?' He asked the hacker of the team.

'I am, it only scans a small area at a time.' He responded.

'Are you guys finding anything?' Robin asked the team.

'M'gann and I are only finding grass and more grass, oh wait! Nope, never mind that's dried grass.' He sarcastically said.

'Same here, only well you know, no grass in sight.' Kid Flash piped in.

''We have not encountered anything yet.' Aqualad responded.

'Same here.' Zatanna included.

'We'll search for thirty more minutes before we regroup back at the bioship.' Kaldur told them and they all agreed.

"Come on." Danny groaned at the lack of the Idiots in White. He dropped to the ground and searched at a slower pace. The tall reeds made searching all the more difficult. He could see why Kaldur chose him and M'gann now. He decided to drop his intangibility as it was starting to get tiring to hold up for so long.

The walk was peaceful at least and it was a nice night. He was having a good time that was rare lately, well at least until he heard the sound of wood creaking and cracking.

"Oh, crud!" He yelled in surprise as he found himself falling into a trapdoor. He fell onto the cold ground with a thud.

"Ouch, wait I could've floated, Idiot!" He facepalmed at his stupidity.

Getting to his feet the halfa encased his hand in ecto energy to see the place he landed in. He fiercely swatted at the cobwebs and spiderwebs that weaved around his other hand in spindles.

"Gross." He spotted spiders scurrying across the cement floor. Turning around he stumbled in shock at the sight in front of him.

There were broken machines everywhere and giant glass tubes that had been shattered. He slowly walked closer to the mess and felt sick at the ashes and uniforms of the Guys in White that were scattered in piles. He nudged a torn coat with his foot and instantly felt woozy. There lying in the clothes was a skull that looked human.

Like a hot rod touching his skin, he immediately jumped back and scrambled to get away.

'Guys!' He frantically yelled in the mind link.

'What's wrong?" Aqualad was quick to respond.

'There's a skull!' He turned intangible and flew out of the ground as fast as he could. His legs felt wobbly like jello and his arms shook.

'We are on our way.' The groups told him.

'Where did you go?' Miss M asked.

'I don't know I was just walking and I fell through the ground!' He exclaimed.

'Calm down, I am following where I sense you.' She said and soon enough he saw the red haired martian push through the grass.

'Where are you located?' Kaldur asked.

'I don't think anyone is around. I'll send an ectoblast to act as a flare.' He said, finally calming down a bit. Sure, he sees the dead on a daily basis but he has never seen an actual skeleton, well besides the ghost skeletons, but that's different.

Danny shot the green energy in the air and the team all gathered at his position.

"You fell here?" Robin asked, kneeling in front of the broken door. Aqualad used his water bearers to cut down the grass in the surrounding area.

"Yeah." Is all he could say.

"You think the skull belongs to one of the agents?" Wally asked.

"Most likely, I'll retrieve it to test the DNA." Robin said as he jumped down with no problem.

"How the hell can you just jump down in a place like that!" Artemis rose her voice to reach the boy wonder.

"Experience, staying calm, and feeling the aster!" Robin shouted back up.

"We are supposed to be covert." Kaldur'ahm sighed.

"Woah, there are tons of equipment we should definitely look at down here!" Robin told them. Aqualad noticed M'gann looked a bit shaky at the thought so he told her she could stay and be the lookout.

"Come on." He told the others and they jumped down one at time.

"Dude, you were right. Look at all this." Wally looked at the machine's scientific looking equipment with awe.

"I got the samples of everything here so I don't think you'll run into any more bones." Robin said.

"Where did you put it?" Artemis asked and turned around and saw him without his cape on. He had it tied in a bundle like you would see with hitchhikers.

"Isn't that rather disrespectful?" Kaldur asked.

"I put them in separate bags and carefully folded my cape, it was the best I could do." Robin said.

Danny turned and saw a camera shattered on the ground. Unfortunately, it looked too damaged to get any video from and most of the computers were totally wiped.

"Hey Rob, this is okay!" Wally picked up a tablet off the ground and smiled at the discovery. The screen was shattered but the tablet looked to be usable with a new screen.

"If your spell led us here does that mean the Guys in White are dead?" Conner asked out front.

"Not necessarily, my spell located the makers of the tapes, not the Guys in White in general." She replied inspecting the area.

"Why are there even cobwebs here!" If there was an explosion like indicated there should be no trace of cobwebs if it was recent!" Kid Flash yelled waving his hand out of the webs.

"Ooh, a souvenir!" Wally exclaimed and picked up a small broken key.

"Shut up, Baywatch!" Artemis growled as his annoying voice.

"I don't know, but I think we need Batman to analyze this as he would be a lot more accurate than I would." Robin told them but directed it towards Danny.

"I would rather for him to not be involved." Danny told him.

"What about my unc- uh Flash." Wally quickly said fixing his mistake of calling him his uncle on the field.

"Flash would be the second best to ask." Robin said and Wally glared.

"First best."

"We'll ask Flash, but I don't want the League to take this over." Danny warned.

"If they seem like they are we'll go on our own." Robin promised.

"Okay." Danny said and they left the dark area to head back to their base.

The way back seemed more quiet and foreboding. Perhaps it was due to the remains Robin held in his cape, or the old thermos in Danny's hands, maybe Miss Martian felt unsettled and was influencing their emotions, Danny thought it was all three.
