Sorry for that wait, but I had other things I had to do. Just a little heads up, next I will post one more chapter before I go on my short break. And sorry that this chapter is a little short, but I hope you enjoy it!
Chapter 15
Raizen was, at the moment, bored. It was September 10 when his school decided to go to the Happy Harbor County Fair. When Superboy and Miss Martian heard about this, they decided to go. Unfortunately, Kid Flash was unable to go due to the fact that he had other plans with Artemis. After Raizen questioned what it was, Miss Martian then decided for him to come along. After saying no many times, Raizen finally gave in when Miss Martian gave him a puppy-eye look. Now sitting in a bus, consisting more than 20 noisy fellow students, he turns around to see Miss Martian sitting next to Superboy. When Miss Martian saw him, Raizen tapped his head as of saying to put up a telepathic link.
As she did that, Miss Martian said "What's wrong?"
Raizen replied "Why are we taking the bus instead of flying there?! It saves us a lot of trouble and I don't have to deal with this noise!"
Miss Martian chuckled and replied "We are going under school rules. They provide not only the transportation, but also the ticket fees. And furthermore, they want us to be in a group so that we are supervised."
Raizen thought about it and said "You're not planning on ditching me, are you?"
Miss Martian shook her head and said "No way. I have been to this fair before, and I want you to have some fun."
Raizen sighed and said "Fine, so long as the three of us…"
"Actually," Miss Martian said, "Mal, Karen and Wendy are going to meet up with us when we get there."
"Great," Raizen said in a sarcastic way, "The more the merrier."
When Superboy saw that Miss Martian was talking with Raizen telepathically, he asked "What is he saying?"
Miss Martian looks at him and replied "He is just excited to come along."
After 30 minutes of driving, the bus finally arrived at the County Faire. Once everyone got off, Raizen stretched his body as Miss Martian and Superboy got off. Behind their bus came three more. After minutes of waiting, Mal and Karen were walking up to them while a girl with Caucasian skin, long black hair and blue eyes was walking with them. If Raizen might have guess, this girl might be this Wendy.
When they all joined up, Mal said "What's up?"
Raizen shrugged and said "Not much."
Karen then said "This is going to be so fun! Now we can go on a triple date."
"Yeah," Miss Martian said before saying, "Wait, triple date?"
Karen replied "Yeah, me and Mal, you and Conner, and Wendy with Jaden."
Wendy blushed and said "Do you really have to bring that up?"
As Raizen raised an eyebrow, he decided to say "So what the point in this 'fair'?"
Everyone looks at him and Mal said "Have you ever gone to a fair before?"
Raizen simple looks at him and said "Single child, moved from one place to another. Didn't really have the time to attend to one."
"Well," Karen said, "That is all about to change. Come on before we are left behind."
Once she said that, the six of them were making their way to the entrance. As Raizen looks ahead, he saw a Ferris Wheel, a rollercoaster and other rides. When Miss Martian was near Karen, she said "What did you mean a triple date?"
Karen smiled and said "Ever since Raizen embarrassed Jackson, our fearless leader couldn't stop taking about him. She was all like, 'Did you see that?' or 'Oh my gosh, look at him!' or better yet 'You think he's single?'."
Miss Martian's jaw nearly dropped. She, Karen and Wendy are all on the Bumblebee Cheerleading Squad and Wendy was their captain. To think that she was starting to have feelings for Raizen! Miss Martian then whispered "How do you know all of this? You know that if that's true, Wendy would keep it a secret to herself."
Karen smiled once again, this time deviously, and said "That is why I read her diary."
Miss Martian smirked and said "You are a horrible friend."
Once they entered the fair, Mal said "So, we have five hours to kill, what do you guys want to do first?"
Everyone thought about it and Karen said "We could go on a ride."
"Yeah," Superboy said, "But which one?"
"I hope it isn't one of those slow rides I have heard of," Raizen said, "If you all do go on it, count me out."
Wendy looks at him and said "You prefer fast ones?"
Raizen shrugged and said "You can say that."
"Well come on then," Mal said, "I know the one ride you will like."
"That was it?" Raizen asked as he and the others got off a ride called 'The Dragon's Rage', "That was too slow."
However, for everyone else, their reactions were different: Superboy could barely keep his balance, Miss Martian was holding on to the railings for support, Karen and Wendy were trying to recover their eyesight while Mal rushed towards the nearest garbage can and threw up.
Superboy looks at Miss Martian and whispered "How is it that we have gone through so much on the Team and yet get sick from this ride?"
Miss Martian shrugged and replied "Perhaps it's mental."
Karen looks over at Mal and said "You just have to eat that funnel cake before getting on the ride?"
After Mal finish throwing up, he stood up and said "I didn't eat lunch. Don't blame me if I was hungry."
Wendy looks at Raizen and said "Jaden, how come you are not…you know…disoriented?"
Raizen looks at her and replied "Let's just say I have endured worse that makes this ride look like child's play."
"Wow," Wendy thought, "Who would have guessed that Jaden is this tough."
After everyone had recovered, Karen said "How about we go on a slow ride this time?"
"I agree," Miss Martian said, "Let's find a ride that…"
All of a sudden, her sentence was cut short and her eyes widen. Superboy and Raizen gave each other a confused look as she said "Can you guys go on ahead? I need to talk to Conner and Jaden about something."
The three friends gave her a confused look, but they agreed. So, they walked away until they were out of sight. Once they were gone, Raizen said "Okay, what was that about?"
Miss Martian points behind them and said "Look who it is."
When Superboy and Raizen turned around, the Saiyan doesn't know what he looking at while Superboy knew what Miss Martian was talking about. Off in the distant, there were two figures walking towards them. One of them was a teenage boy who had blond hair, Caucasian skin and blue eyes and was wearing a white sleeveless shirt, black pants with red suspenders, black boots, a chain necklace around his neck and black fingerless gloves. The other figure was a teenage girl who almost looks like the boy, except she had long blond hair that she had in a ponytail, purple lipstick and was wearing a white sleeveless shirt, black pants with suspenders, black boots and long black fingerless gloves. Unknown to Raizen, these two people were Tommy and Tuppence Terror, also known as, The Terror Twins!
"What the hell?!" Superboy exclaimed, "The Terror Twins?! How the hell did they got out of Belle Reve?!"
Raizen looks at them and asked "You know them?"
Miss Martian looks at him and replied "Long story short: we went undercover posing as them to get inside Belle Reve to prevent a breakout. But after our mission was done, the League then put the real ones in."
"And now they are out," Raizen said as he looks back at the twins, "But what are they doing here?"
Before anyone could reply, Tommy suddenly leaps into the air, and when he crash to the ground, it cause a small earthquake and caused everyone to cry in terror. Superboy sighed and said "That is why."
Raizen rolled his neck and said "Then let's stop them."
Right before he was going to charge at them, Miss Martian grabbed his arms and said "We can't. Remember, we cannot use our powers in public."
Raizen looks back at her and said "Then what do we do?"
Superboy took out his cell phone and replied "I will call Superman and let him know of the Terror Twins. But right now, we need to get back with the others."
As Raizen gritted his teeth, Miss Martian said "I know you want to fight, but we can't, not without exposing our identities."
Sighing in defeat, Raizen said "You better be right about this. We should go get the others and lead them out of here."
Realizing it, Miss Martian said "You're right! Come on, let's get the others!"
Once she said that, the three of them were rushing to find their friends. Raizen can't help but feel left out from the action. Here are two metahumans that are ruining this fair and the only thing that he is required to do is stand on the sidelines. He had to do something, but at the same time, he can't expose his identity. Suddenly, he caught something in the corner of his eye. Stopping in his tracks, Raizen smiled as he got an idea to not only take down these Terror Twins, but also keep his identity a secret.
When Miss Martian and Superboy found Mal, Karen and Wendy, they rushed up to them and Karen asked "What the heck is going on?"
Superboy replied "A bunch of metahumans showed up. We need to get out of here."
As everyone agreed, they all made their way to the entrance. However, Wendy looks around and said "Wait a minute, where's Jaden?!"
Miss Martian and Superboy stopped and look around, only to see Raizen gone! Miss Martian then cried "Jaden! Jaden!"
As everyone started to cry his name, Miss Martian decided to use her telepathic link to find him. But to her surprise, she can't find Raizen! She then turns to Superboy and whispered "I think we have a problem."
Right before Superboy was about to say something, there was a loud crash in front of them. When everyone looks, they saw the Terror Twins in front of them. Tommy Terror laughed and said in a Southern accent "Look at wha we got here, sis."
Tuppence smiled and said "A bunch of them high-class stuck ups if you ask me. Ah think we can mess around for a bit."
As she cracked her knuckles, Tommy looks at Superboy and raised an eyebrow. He then points at Superboy and said "Hey you, have ah seen you before?"
Superboy, pretended to know nothing, said "Sorry, but I think you confuse me for someone else."
"It ain't that," Tommy said, "I know you look familiar. But where?"
Tuppence looks at her brother and said "Does it matter now? Ah mean, we are here to kicks the living day lights out of them all."
"Yeah, you're right," Tommy said as he turns to the others, "Looks like today ain't your lucky day."
Mal then moved in front of Karen and said "No way I'm letting you go near my girlfriend."
As soon as the Terror Twins were about to take a step, a voice out of nowhere said "Leave them alone."
Everyone then looked up to see who was talking to them. To their disappointment, it was someone wearing a suit of armor that covered their entire body, including the face. As the figure landed between the Terror Twins and the others, Tommy and Tuppence couldn't help but laugh. Tuppence then said "Who the hell you suppose to be?"
The figure replied "I am…uh…Holy Knight!"
As the others gave Holy Knight a confused look, only Miss Martian and Superboy knew what was going on. Recognizing Holy Knight's voice, they knew who it was. Miss Martian turns to Superboy and said in her telepathic link "Is that Raizen?"
Superboy nodded and replied "Yup."
Raizen, who is Holy Knight at the moment, turns to the others and said "I advise you all to leave. Allow me to handle these crooks."
When everyone nodded, they began to leave them. Once out of sight, Raizen turns to the Terror Twins and said "So, I heard you escaped Belle Reve. No matter, after I am done with the both of you, you two will head back."
Tommy huffed and said "Ain't no way you are going make us."
He then charged at Raizen and swings his right fist towards his face. But to Tommy's surprise, Raizen caught it, twists it until Tommy was on his knees. Raizen then places his right foot on Tommy's chest, and with force, pushes his towards a tent, causing the whole thing to fall on him. Tuppence was to say the least shocked. When she looks at Raizen, she charges at him and delivers a powerful kick to the left side of his body. But to her surprise, Raizen didn't even budge.
Raizen lazily looks at her and said "Is that the best you can do? How disappointing."
He then grabs her legs and started to spin her. The moment Tommy got up, Raizen threw Tuppence at him, causing both of them to fall to the ground. As Raizen chuckled at this, the twins both got up and Tommy said "That's it! Let's take 'im down!"
When Tuppence agreed, the both of them charged at Raizen with their fists ready to hit him. Right before they made contact, Raizen disappeared into thin air. As the twins stopped and look around to find the Saiyan, Raizen appeared behind them, raises his hands towards them and released a powerful force that sends them flying in the air. In rage, when Tommy got up, he turns around and charges at Raizen. He then starts throwing punches at Raizen, but the young Saiyan dodges them with ease. Regaining her focus, when Tuppence got up and saw what her brother was doing, she decides to jump in and start throwing her own punches. But no matter how many punches the twins throw, Raizen continues to dodge them with ease.
Wanting to end this quickly, Raizen sighed and said "The two of you are nothing more than a waste of time. You two have potential, but lack everything."
The twins gritted their teeth and Tuppence said "Ah had enough of this. Let's take 'im down!"
With that, the twins charged at him once again. Having enough of this nonsense, as soon as the twins were in range, Raizen disappeared into thin air. The moment the twins stopped their attack, they looked around to find Raizen. After spending seconds of finding him, when the twins were back to back, Raizen appeared between them and Raizen swings his right fist into the back of Tommy's head. The impact knocks Tommy to the ground and the force somehow knocks him unconscious. Hearing the commotion behind her, when Tuppence turned around, Raizen delivers a powerful left elbow strike into Tuppence's face. When Raizen knocks Tuppence to the ground, she was knocked out.
Seeing the twins knocked out, Raizen rolled his shoulders and said "Too easy. Even two of them can't take me down."
After looking around, Raizen flew off into the distance and started to take off the armor. Meanwhile, back with Superboy, Miss Martian and the others were looking everywhere looking for Raizen. After spending minutes of looking for Raizen, they found him walking towards them like nothing happened to him. Everyone rushed up to him and Mal said "Hey bro, where have you been?"
Raizen just replied "Me, Conner and Megan got separated when the commotion happened. One minute we were together and the next they were gone."
He then turns to them and said "Thanks a lot."
Wanting to play along, Miss Martian said "We told you to stay together, but you decided to run off without telling us."
"Well," Raizen said, "Now I am here."
As Mal, Karen and Wendy let out a sigh of relief and Wendy said "Too bad, because of this, now we have to go home early."
"Damn," Mal said, "And we only got on one ride. Still sick from it."
Karen looks at Raizen and said "Sorry about all this. We know that this was your first time coming here."
Raizen shrugged and said "Ah well, maybe next we go to a field trip, it won't be as disastrous."
As they chuckled, Karen said "And hey, maybe Wendy can finally get to know you better."
Wendy blushed as she grabbed Karen's arms and said "Let's go."
And with that, Karen and Wendy left along with Mal leaving Raizen, Miss Martian and Superboy alone. Once they were out of sight, Superboy and Miss Martian look at Raizen and Miss Martian said "Really, Raizen? You just had to go out of your way to fight the twins?"
Raizen shrugged and said "I had to do something. Plus, I didn't reveal my identity."
"Wearing a suit of armor doesn't help," Superboy said, "And by the way, where did you find that?"
Raizen replied "It was just lying around. But hey, look on the bright side, no one knew who I was and saved the day. Isn't that what heroes do?"
Miss Martian and Superboy sighed and Superboy said "I guess so."
"Good," Raizen said, "Now let's get the hell out of here."
With that, Raizen began to get on one of the buses while Miss Martian and Superboy were left behind. They couldn't believe that Raizen came up with the idea to wear a suit of armor just to hide his identity while fighting the Terror Twins. It just shows that Raizen can be full of surprises. With those thoughts aside, the two of them got onto the bus and then headed home, leaving the Terror Twins behind waiting to be transported back to Belle Reve.
Did you all enjoy that? Since the Terror Twins didn't have that much screen time in Young Justice, I figure to add them to the story. As for Raizen going to the fair, I wanted him to get out more. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this chapter and see you all next week.
