Last chapter! Teekl's POV this time.

Disclaimer: I do not own Young Justice. I do not own Possession either which was written by Ally Marton. Yes, I have permission.

Every night my witchboy sees his precious pet to sleep. Every night, he sits by him and gently caresses his red hair, marveling at his prize. Every night I am with them both.

But I am a familiar and he is a witchboy, and there are things only I can see.

A boy. There is always a boy with midnight black hair. I have been seeing him every night for a while now. The first few times, I attacked, but I just went through him and when I turned around, he was gone.

The boy always smiles at the runner, watching him in his sleep, speaking to him, haunting him. And when the night is over, the boy with midnight black hair vanishes without a trace.

~o~o~o~o~

I convince Klarion to start up a surveillance spell to see if anything is amiss. "Don't get complacent," I told him. Judging from the actions of the heroes(and Vandal Savage), though, nothing seems to be causing the appearances of the boy with midnight black hair.

The mysterious boy never used to appear. Only after Klarion succeeded in taking the runner did the boy start appearing. To add to that, the runner seems to be the boy's only interest here. Put that together and the runner has a direct connection to the boy.

I feel an unwelcome presence in the air and hiss.

"What now?" My witchboy asks, irritated.

"An intruder," I reply as I jump to my favorite perch- his shoulders.

"An intruder? If someone other than you, Wally and I were here, I would have known."

"As I've said, don't get complacent. I wouldn't want to see you lose what you care for so much." I purr against his cheek. "Look into the future, see if you find anything."

"Okay, fine."

He casts another spell and we see an apparition of a bird being stroked by a clawed hand, symbolizing Klarion and the runner. What came next, though was anything but good.

Shadows. Shadows drag the bird away. My eyes narrow. There seems to be nothing on the boy with midnight black hair who watches all the time.

"No!" Klarion angrily launches fire at the apparitions. I quickly leap off his shoulders and climb atop a bookshelf.

"NO NO NO! THIS CAN'T HAPPEN!" he yells, "I KILLED THEM ALL! I KILLED THEM! THERE'S NO ONE LEFT WHO POSES A THREAT!"

I watch as he glows red with power and launches chaos magic blasts at the walls. Such an ill-tempered witchboy. "Klarion, calm down."

" 'Calm down'?! Tell me, how can I calm down when these... 'shadows' are trying to take what is rightfully mine!"

"Klarion! You won't be able to find out what that prophecy meant if you keep throwing tantrums!"

"I'll just kill them all, then!" He declares as his eyes turn beady and red, "Everyone who poses a threat to my little runner! Vandal can go hang himself!"

"Klar-"

"WHAT!?"

Standing in the doorway is the runner, and leaning in a corner is none other than the boy with midnight black hair- translucent to my eyes, invisible to the others'.

"What is it, pet? Can't sleep?" Klarion asks, his anger suddenly gone.

The runner nods. I look back to the boy with midnight black hair. Well, that explains a lot. After all, he is present when the runner sleeps.

I unsheathe my claws and hiss, warning the boy not to try anything. He only looks at me and smiles.

Until now, I am still unsure of exactly what the boy is and what could possibly be his purpose here. Seeing as he hasn't done anything harmful, he can't be a malicious spirit. But whatever he is, he seems attached to the runner.

"But I suppose Teekl can go with you."

I snap back to Klarion and the runner at the sound of my name and leap down to join them. I glance once more at the corner where the boy stood.

He is gone.

~o~o~o~o~

When the speedster gets back in bed, I sit at the foot, ready to attack the mysterious boy if he comes.

He doesn't. The boy with midnight black hair does not appear.

~o~o~o~o~

The next day, I catch a glimpse of the boy with midnight black hair again and chase him all the way to a small garden. I crouch, peeking through the greenery and see the runner kneeling by the bushes while the boy watches next to him.

The runner stands and walks to a nearby tree, sitting under the shade. He seems to be holding a robin in his hands. The boy with midnight black hair seems to laugh as he follows and stands next to him. He smiles down at the runner and in that instant, he reminds me of another boy with midnight black hair who cares for the same runner.

CRACK!

I wince at the sound of bones cracking. The runner stands and brings his new-found pet back with him through a portal. The boy with midnight black hair does not follow him. Instead, he gazes on from the same spot with a pitying air around him.

I slowly approach and he notices me. I sit in front of him and he looks down at me. Even at this angle, I still can't see his eyes which are always shadowed by his hair.

A ghost. Since he can't be a malicious spirit or an elemental, then he is most likely a ghost. I have my suspicions as to whose ghost he is, but there is only one way to be sure.

"Why?" I ask. "He doesn't even remember you. He chose to forget. So why bother?"

He gives me this wide, cheeky grin and says something I didn't quite catch. I suppose even the ears of a cat familiar are not sensitive enough to hear a ghost's voice.

Then he suddenly vanishes.

~o~o~o~o~

The following night, I see the boy again.

The runner is crying. Apparently, the bird he brought back the day before died. On one side of the runner is Klarion, trying to comfort his precious pet, and on the other side is the boy with midnight black hair.

Unlike before, the boy is not smiling. He isn't even holding the runner like my witchboy is. He only sits and looks away.

"Its wing is broken."

I turn my attention back to the runner and the witchboy. The runner looks up at the dead bird and breaks down, begging Klarion to rid him of the sight of the dead robin.

At that moment, I see the ghost-boy turn and bury his face in the runner's shoulder. I try to jump at him but the moment I get closer, I freeze as I feel an incredibly strong aura emanating from the ghost boy.

The strongest of emotions roll off him in waves and overwhelm my senses. Because of this, I can finally hear, or rather, feel what he is saying.

"I just didn't want it to leave me okay!?" the runner cries, "Is that so wrong? I just didn't want to be left alone."

"Dude, I would never leave you alone..."

"Is my pet so afraid of being alone?"

The runner nods and the ghost shakes his head.

"Wally, it's okay! I forgive you! It wasn't your fault."

It's official, then. The boy with midnight black hair is the ghost of one of the runner's former teammates, which explains why he is so attached to him.

After letting him cry a bit more, Klarion casts a sleeping spell on the runner and the ghost-boy pulls away.

"Never," Klarion possessively whispers soon after the runner falls into blissful sleep. "I will never let you go. You are mine."

"Wally," says the ghost, "just remember that you are never alone."

"My precious chaos..."

"I'm always with you even if you don't know it." The ghost-boy stands and for the first time, I see his eyes.

My witchboy smiles as he watches his precious pet's sleeping form. He sits by him, gently caressing his red hair, marveling at his prize.

But he is a witchboy and I am a familiar, and there are things only I can see.

"Because even if you don't remember, I will always be your best friend."

The boy with sky blue eyes and midnight black hair vanishes once more.

So writing for Teekl turned out to be harder than I thought -.-" Oh well, now you know who the "intruder" Teekl was talking about last chapter and the force influencing Wally's dreams was.

The end.
