Ch.53: Clockwork
Danny scratched his head as he looked at the map he was given. The sheet of paper was bigger than Danny and he was having trouble following it with how big it was (and the fact dyslexia didn't like him).
Turning the map up, down, around, and about, Danny surmised his predicament in one sentence.
"Well... I'm lost."
Frostbite had given the child a map to use when he came and visited. He'd used it before and gotten lost multiple times but, usually, it was somewhere near the Far Frozen. Of course, there was that one time he somehow ended up near Pandora's.
Note: Sleepy dragons are bad.
Looking around, Danny tried to find any landmarks that matched the one's on the map because pictures were easier than words. Still, he found none, no matter he how many times he turned the stupid thing around.
Sighing, Danny muttered a "Screw this..."
Dick looked up from his spot in his office. "My Bad-Jason-senses are tingling..."
Folding up the map, Danny put it in his pocket. He flew off towards the closet lair that looked semi-inviting and less-threatening. It was a giant coliseum thing and Danny hoped no one wanted to kill him there.
Nearing, he looked for an entrance. He saw two, big, double doors and phased through them. He landed softly on the ground and walked through the halls, looking at everything in interest with his arms behind his back. He eventually heard voices and peeked his head in another door. His green eyes widened at the many occupants in the huge room.
All of them were green blobs (as Danny saw them) wearing cream colored robes highlighted in black and gold. They all had one frikkin huge eye in the middle of their heads and where did they have room in their heads to store their brains because their eye took up the majority of their frikkin heads!
Goodness, those things are huge. Danny thought, not even blinking at the sight. Stupidly, he tripped over air and landed on his belly, letting out a loud grunt. Something crashed behind him and Danny beat red with embarrassment.
I hope no one tells Batman... Danny thought.
All those huge eyes turned to where Danny was blushing madly. No one said a word. Faintly, you could hear a cricket in the background.
"Hi..." Danny uttered, getting up from his spot and sitting on the ground instead.
"WHO LET THE CHILD IN?!" The leader, or at least Danny thought it was the leader as he was standing at a podium, shouted.
Cricket, cricket, cricket.
"Hi..." Danny repeated stupidly. He was still blushing a deep red and had his head tilted at an angle that would make any woman swoon.
"That was pathetic, even for you." A blue ghost commented as he entered through another door on the opposite side of the stadium. "You can view time and you didn't know this child was going to appear at this exact moment and crash your little party? Why are you even my bosses?"
"Clockwork..." The leader said threateningly. The purple-robed ghost merely smirked. "I will do as I please. You can't exactly fire me, now can you?"
The podium guy simmered in his spot.
Clockwork chuckled and floated over to Danny, who remained sitting in his spot. His wide peridot green eyes stared up at the blue ghost with fascination (unlike with the other big-eyed ghosts).
"Hi..." Danny repeated stupidly. The older ghost chuckled down at the child. "You're trying to get to the Far Frozen, are you not?"
Danny nodded dumbly. The ghost changed from his middle-aged appearance to that off an old man. "I will escort you there and give you an easier map, alright?"
Danny continued to nod dumbly. The old man turned into a toddler before his middle aged appearance again. "Well, let's go."
The child shook his head and floated off the ground, eagerly flying behind the blue ghost. "What's your name?"
The purple-robed man flashed a mysterious smile. "I am Clockwork."
Observants are idiots. Clockwork is awesome.
