A New Darkness

Chapter 2

To put it lightly, she was bored. To use stronger terms, she was bored

to a point JUST short of insanity. No action, no villians, no YJ meeting,

nobody stopping by, nothing to do outside, nothing in ANY city she hadn't seen

a THOUSAND times before. "Boredboredboredboredboredboredbored" ran through her

head like an unruly 2 year old. Maybe she could go check up on Robin. Yeah,

that'd kill some time.

Right about then a giant TV screen filled with static popped up in the

meeting room of HQ, which, luckily, Secret happened to be passing though at

the moment. "What the--?!" Boredom flew out the nearest window. Out of the TV

screen flew a young man... who looked just like.... "Robin?"

After the TV had ditched it's passenger, it dissappeared in a cheesy

flash. He groaned and lay on the ground, hurting from the rather abrupt

landing on the ground, as well as the smack his ribs had gotten. "Robin?" he

heard a girl asking above him. Her voice was... rather etheral. Looking up he

saw a girl made entirely of smoke hovering over him. "Uh?" He replied. Oh

wasn't THAT intelligent sounding. She was... well, very pretty. He glanced

around, and with a start sat up. "Headquarters?! What? How? When?" Then

looking back up at the girl, "Who?"

On second thought, it wasn't Robin. His costume was different, all

shades of grey and black. And it wasn't an 'R' on his chest. It was a 'D'. He

looked up at her with a grimace, which gave way to surprise. "Uh?" he said,

then sat up with a start. "Headquarters?! What? How? When?" Then he looked

back at her. "Who?"

WAIT. Let's be a LITTLE more polite, since you have NO idea what's

going on. Right. Okay. "Um... I'm sorry, Who might you be? And how did I get

here?" There. That's better. You sound LESS like a cave-nephil. He grabbed his

side, since it felt like someone had smacked it with a metal pole. In fact it

HAD been smacked by a metal pole, but not much ELSE feels quite like that, so

we have a less than creative description. "uhmn..." the girl said, looking at

him strangely. Then, she smiled. "My name's Secret. You popped out of this

gigantic TV screen that just appeared out of nowhere and dissappeared." She

paused for a moment and looked at him closely. "Are you alright? You look like

you're in pain." Pain? Me? Naaaah. "Oof. Yeah, I think some of my ribs are

broken." He grimaced. "Did you say a gigantic TV screen? Ohhhhhhhhhhh boy." If

he fell out of a TV, that must mean he must be in some other universe. She

blinked, then said, "Wait here. I'll go get a stretcher for you to get down to

the infirmary." She was about to float out of the room, when he stood up.

"That... oof ... won't be necessary. I can walk." She shrugged as he walked

over to her. This was VERY strange. It looked almost identical to the HQ he

knew, but there were posters for this show "Wendy the Werewolf Stalker" on the

walls. Hm. He watched his guide for a moment, floating ahead of him. No wings.

A nephilim? Or maybe she changed them into that coat she was wearing? "umn...

excuse me for asking.. but what are you?" She turned and blinked at him. she

became very serious. Oh no. You've asked the WRONG question. "I'm sor-" "I'm

... I USED to be human. Now I'm ... I don't know. " Smooth going Timothy. Ask

a sensitive question.

He reached a hand out. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry." He sighed.

Ow. Oh yeah, broken ribs. "In my world, there are 2 major races, Seraphim and

Nepilim. I'm not exactly sure what a human is." The girl, Secret, blinked.

"Uhmn... well... they look just like you." It was Darkness' s turn to blink.

Like him?

He put two and two together. So, nephilim were called humans in this

universe. Right. "This is the infirmary. If you wold go ahead on in and lie

down, I'll go get someone who knows how to work the equipment." She smiled at

him sheepishly. "Sure." He smiled back. She really was very pretty. He wen in

and lay down in a cot. It was weirding him out, being in this place. He was

sure now it was the Young Justice headquarters, but how did he get here And on

this world?

Secret floated back to the communications computer. Calling up the

first person she could think of, she called Robin. "Robin?" a moment of

silence. "Robin here. Yes, Secret?" calm, cool. Secret told him what had

happened. Another moment of silence. It was becoming a habit. "I'll be right

there. Robin out." Secret sighed.

It wasn't long before Robin arrived. He walked in and Secret escorted

him to the infirmary. The young man on the bed rose into a sitting position as

Secret floated in. His jaw dropped as did robin's when they saw each other.

Then, in unison, they said, "YOU?!"
