All our fears will disappear.

Jonathan stood in the yard staring out as the cold spring air blew across his face, he heard the crunching of leaves and he turned slightly to see Luna and Lucifer walking over to him.

He gave them a kind smile before he walked over to them.

"What are we going to do Jonnythan?" asked Luna as she stared up at him.

"I told you I would teach you to use your powers, I thought we should start practicing while my dad's busy."

The two grinned up at him and Jonathan knelt down in front of them both. "So, who wants to go first?"

Lucifer put his hand up and smiled. "I'm not as good as Luna, she's better then me."

Luna nodded her head and held Lui's hand. "It hurts him too, he needs help more then I do."

Jonathan nodded and turned to him. "Okay Lucifer, I want you to… well, I don't know how you hear everyone's thoughts but… well you get the idea."

The boy nodded his head before he closed his eyes and then he began to wince and he grabbed his head as all the voices attacked him from everywhere. Every thought and feeling that was in the near them he heard, granted it wasn't as many as usual, but it was still a lot.

"It hurts," he whimpered as he fell to his knees. "Make it stop!"

"Lui, listen to me," Jonathan instructed as he placed a hand on the boys shoulder. "Can you hear my thoughts?"

"A little… but there's so many others I can't… I mean I can't… hear yours all of the time."

"You need to focus on them, Lui, focus on my voice, the voice you hear as my thoughts focus on it."

Lui bit his lip and tried to concentrate but he cried and curled up in a ball. "It's too much!" he wailed as he began to rock back and forth. "It's too much, there's too much!"

"Lui!" Luna cried and held her brother, stroking his hair to try and calm him down. "Lui… calm down."

"It hurts!"

"Lui," Jonathan spoke clearly and took the boy's hand. "I believe in you. I know you can do it, just focus, okay? Focus. Take a deep breath, calm yourself and focus understand?"

Lui nodded before he took a deep breath and began to concentrate, Jonathan's voice became louder in his head, it began to block all of the others out. Lui winced and scrunched his face up in thought as he focused and then… all he could hear was Jonathan.

Lucifer snapped his eyes open and stared at the floor, blinking a few times in disbelieve.

"Lui?" Jonathan questioned as he placed a hand on the boys shoulder.

Lui looked up at him and stared.

"Can you hear me Jonathan?"

Jonathan blinked in surprise and stood up quickly looking down at the boy in shock.

He heard him in his head, he heard Lui.

"You heard me!"

Jonathan smiled and nodded before he began to laugh lightly in slight shock. "Lui… you .. you did it! You did it! And you can talk to me psychicly too!"

Luna blinked and looked at her brother. "You… you talked to him in his head?"

Lui nodded in reply before he got to his feet and grinned. "I.. can do it! I can control it!" he turned to his sister and smiled. "Luna, he fixed me! I can speak like this and tell you secrets and no one would know! We can communicate," he looked back at Jonathan and smiled. "We can all talk together in our heads and no one would know!"

The three of them grinned before Jonathan turned to Luna. "We need to try out your powers too Luna, come on, to the old barn. It's the darkest place here, besides the house."

They all nodded and ran towards the barn, smiles on all of their faces.

Edward Nygma was used to seeing strange things in Gotham now. It was becoming almost a regular and normal thing. They had the Balloon man, Viper, the Electrocutioner and now someone who was stealing Adrenal glands to make a cure for fear. And they were simply the few he could name off the top of his head.

But he had never, ever, had a crime were the weapon left no trace and disappeared into thin air.

It was something new and exciting… as well as confusing.

"Knock, knock," came a cheerful call from the door to his office.

He looked up and saw Mist leaning against the doorframe smiling at him.

"What are you doing here?" he asked in confusion as he stared. "I thought the police banned you from coming here?"

"Not anymore," she grinned as she walked into his office carrying a bag of take out with her.

Edward raised and eyebrow. "May I ask what exactly changed their decision?"

"When I pointed out all the undeniable holes in their little scheme, that sort of thing," she smiled and grabbed a spare stool placing it on the other side of the table as she placed the take out in front of him. "I brought you food, my fave nerd of nerdiness."

Edward blinked. "What did I do to deserve this?"

"You say that like I don't always feed you junk food, Edward. I'm ashamed."

Edward simply stared at her before he placed his file away and slipped it to the side. "What did you bring?"

"Take out."

He gave her a deadbeat look. "What kind of take out?"

"Chineese… I think, not sure. Just knew it had what you liked and don't worry," she giggled as she placed a tin tray in front of him and passed him a plastic knife and folk. "I asked for no onions. Couldn't have you dissecting your meal and letting it go cold again now could I?"

Edward smiled and began to dig into his take out as Mist sat eating hers. It was an odd set up, but at least she could come and visit him now.

"Why are you hear?"

"Just wanted to chat with you," Mist shrugged. "We haven't talked in ages, not since… well, ya know."

Edward nodded solemnly before he looked back at her. "How's Enigma doing?"

Mist smiled and chewed her food. "She's doing okay, the Doctors said she should be able to come out this week, maybe even tomorrow. She misses you though."

Edward smiled at that before he glanced at the case file of the three thugs.

Mist followed his gase and raised an eyebrow. "New case?"

"Kinda," he said before sighing. "Three thugs, all dead, all look like they've been cut to pieces by broken glass, except there was no broken glass in the alley or in any of the wounds, what killed them?"

Mist frowned. "That is a very morbid riddle."

"It's not a riddle," Edward mumbled as he pointed at the case file. "It's the case. I don't understand how a weapon can simply disappear into thin air."

"Well, when you put it that way…" Mist trailed off before she smirked. "Great work for a headline though," she looked up at him and grinned before she held her hands up as if she was placing the headline up in mid air. "Thugs killed by ghost blades!"

"Please don't."

"Why, it would work perfectly and I am an investigative reporter."

"An investigative reporter who's already had a few brushes with the GCPD," Edward pointed out, "Do you really want to risk another one?"

"Ah you're right," she sighed and fiddled with her fork. "Of course… it wouldn't be so bad if say.. it wasn't me who handed in the report…"

"No."

"Oh come on Edward, cut me some slack!"

Edward shook his head. "I can not go giving out information, besides, if the news was smart enough they'd figured it out themselves."

"Figured what out?"

"Well, obviously this," he gestured to the file again. "I don't understand it."

"I told you, it's a riddle or at least it sounds like one."

"I only like riddles I can answer."

Mist smirked. "Uh huh and how that work out with Bullock?"

Edward grimaced before smirking with her. "Not well."

The two shared a laugh before they began to eat their meal in silence.

Jonathan stumbled into the barn and slammed the door shut before he fell to the floor taking in deep breaths.

"Jonnythan?" Luna and Lucifer ran over to him. The two of them had been playing in the barn after Jonathan had gone to see if his dad was okay.

Jonathan simply stared into space as sat there with his arms wrapped firmly around himself.

"Jonnythan?" Luna questioned again as she placed a hand on his shoulder. "What's wrong?"

"My Dad," Jonathan whispered. "He… he's not safe, I… you two need to stay away from him okay?"

"What about you?" Lucifer questioned as he stared him with concern.

"I can handle him," Jonathan muttered before he wiped the sweat from his brow and looked back at the brother and sister. "But you two need to stay in here okay? Until I think it's safe…" he trailed off and sighed. "Any way… how's your powers coming along?"

Luna grinned flexed her fingers out towards the shadows and they slowly curled towards her before they wrapped around her arm and fingers curling up to her shoulder as they slid into a slight point at the end of her hand and turned into a solid form.

Jonathan smiled. "Wow," he whispered before slowly touched the shadow. "I never thought… I never thought any of this was possible. It's amazing!" he turned to look at the brother and sister. "You're both amazing."

They smiled at him before there was a pound bang as the barn door swung open and Jonathan's father stood in the door way. "There's a little bit left for Luna," he whispered as he held the needle.

Jonathan's eyes widened. After what he'd just gone through… he couldn't let his Dad do the same to Luna.

"No Dad… no don't! Leave her alone, she doesn't need it!"

His Dad was surprisingly quick and he caught Luna's arm, plunging the needle in before he stepped back and watched as the girl cried.

"Luna, it's okay, what ever you're seeing it's not real!" Jonathan shouted as he held her tightly in his arms.

Luna looked up at him confused. "No, it just hurts, the needle hurt."

"What… you mean… you don't see anything?"

"No…" Luna frowned. "Should I?"

Jonathan shook his head before he turned to glare at his father. "What were you thinking, they're just kids!"

Jonathan's father grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the barn towards the house. "It's time for your second dose," his father assured him as they walked up to the house, it was already dark outside, Jonathan looked back to see Luna and lucifer standing at the doorway staring out at him as he was dragged back into the house.

Luna and Lucifer stood watching as the door opened and closed before the lights came on in the kitchen.

Suddenly Lui grabbed Luna's hand and pulled her inside. "There's somebody here," he whispered. "Someone new, I heard them…. they're here to stop Jonathan's dad."

Luna's eyes widened. "We have to warn them!"

"Wait!" Lucifer cried and held his sister back. "They're policemen."

They suddenly both heard a commotion outside and they stood at the barn door sating out as they watched Jonathan being pulled down towards the scarecrow they'd made only the other day.

Jonathan seemed to be arguing with his father about something and then they saw the two policemen coming towards Jonathan and his dad.

"AHHH! AHHHH!"

Luna and Lucifer snapped their heads to the side as they heard Jonathan scream, they ran out to help but both stopped as shots were fired and they watched as Jonathan's Dad fell to the floor after being shot multiple times.

One of the policemen went down to check on Jonathan before he suddenly turned to his partner. "Call an ambulance! Call an ambulance!"

Luna and Lucifer blinked before they quickly came running towards Jonathan but they both stopped when the policeman who was with him turned and stared directly at them.

"Who are you?" he questioned as he stared, still trying to stop Jonathan from moving.

They didn't reply, instead Luna pulled a shadow from a tree and wrapped it around the two of them and then they were on the main road to the house.

The two of them ran down the road and quickly hid as an ambulance went racing up the road towards the house followed by police cars, the lights flashing blue and red, as their sirens went crazy disturbing the night's silence.

The brother and sister continued to run down the road until they found themselves in Gotham.

Lucifer cried out in pain and clutched his head as they reached crowds of people.

"Lui, it's okay, just focus on one person, remember like Jonnythan said!"

Lui nodded his head and closed his eyes before focusing on his sister's thoughts since they were the safest.

They ran down a street quickly before hiding behind a dumpster near the church.

"There you two are!"

They screamed and backed away as their parents came towards them.

Luna swallowed and quickly began to push Lui away. "Run Lui! Run, go I can hold them off, run and find Jonnythan!"

Lui nodded and began to run down the alley but he stopped when he heard his sister's thoughts of fear and pain before he hear her cry out as she landed on the floor, her lip was bleeding as she stared up at her parents in fear.

"Luna…" Lui whispered before he narrowed his eyes and glared at his parents. "No!" he shouted and ran down the alley towards them, his eyes glowed purple as he reached his parents. "Leave my sister alone!" he yelled sending out a psychic shockwave through the street, causing glass to shatter and his parents screamed in pain and agony before they fell to the floor unconscious.

Luna slowly got to her feet and stared at her brother before they looked at the broken glass surrounding them and they could hear car alarms going off in the distance.

Lui looked frightened at what he'd just done and he ran to his sister before he hugged her crying. "Luna what did I do? What did I do?"

"It's okay Lui," she whispered before she glanced at her parents and frowned. "We need to leave before they wake up."

"But what if they find us again?" he whispered as he stared up at her. "What if they find us again? They'll hurt us."

Luna narrowed her eyes. "No one will ever hurt us again, Lui," she whispered as she made the shadows curl around her fingers. "No one will ever hurt us again."

"I heard they caught the phobia killer," Mist pipped up as she entered Edward's office and stood next to him as he pondered over the very file he had been pondering over when she first came in.

"Yeah… apparently the phobia killer is dead but his son got a massive dose of the toxin he created."

"So much for a cure of fear huh?" Mist piped up before frowned at him and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Is the boy going to be okay?"

"I don't know, I believe Detective Gordon is going to check up on him."

"What's the boy's name?" Mist asked.

"Jonathan Crane," Edward sighed and sat up turning to her. "He's only fifteen, Mist."

"We were only fifteen too Edward," Mist mumbled. "Didn't exactly stop our parents did it?"

Edward shuddered before he looked back at the file. "No… no it didn't."

Detective Gordon stood watching Jonathan as the boy lay in the hospital bed struggling to get free.

Suddenly the Doctor came up next to him and stared into the room with Jonathan in it.

"The boy received a massive dose of condensed hormones. Cortosole adrenalin and another compound we're still trying to identify. Combination nearly killed him."

Gordon turned to him and frowned. "But he's going to live."

"Yes…" the Doctor hesitated before carrying on. "But we ran a cat scan in order to determine if he'd suffered any brain damage.. the results.. we've never seen anything like them before."

Jim frowned again and tilted his head to the side in a questioning manner.

Little did either of them know, Luna and Lucifer were sitting in the shadows listening.

"The hormones themselves have longed since warn off but the effects… they seem to be lingering."

"What are you saying, that he's still in fear?"

"Well not just fear," the Doctor sighed. "Jonathan's brain activity show he's in a constant state of intense terror."

"How long until this goes away?"

"That's the thing Detective… we can't be certain it ever will," the Doctor took a step forward. "Imagine the thing you fear most in the world, imagine that's all you see… every waking hour."

He walked off and the Detective stayed and watched as Jonathan began to scream about a scarecrow.

Little did he know but Luna and Lucifer listened knowing all too well that if they had not made the scarecrow… then Jonathan would be safe.

Little did anyone know that if they hadn't made the scarecrow, Gotham would of been a lot safer.
