I'm so heartbroken about Kaldur'ahm. But it has given me a great idea for this story. I saw a preview for next week's episode OH MY RED HOOD Red Arrow is appearing next week! Now we just gotta find KF and Arty (who I'm assuming is Tigeress because so far everyone else has been right on what happened). And Roy (Speedy) is in the next chappy. Along with a few new memebers of the team. Kid Devil is here! *evil laugh*

"Possibly, what are you doing here?" She asked, turning on the dim lights.
Red Arrow, or Draco now since Leslie refused to call him RA all the time and he didn't want to be called Roy, put the wooden bow and quiver back under the table besides the couch. "Well I expected you to be here ealier, I just let myself in," Draco told her. "Oh, Seth's in town."
"Sorry Cheshire slowed me down, and did he say where he was going?" Leslie asked, shedding the Shadow Wolf personia for civie clothes.
Draco shook his head, "Just told me to tell you he was gonna be in town for a little while." Leslie nodded, kissing him before disappearing from the apartment.

"Got some nerve showing up in my town bro," Leslie announced as she came up behind her brother, who was looking out at Lake Michigan. "Sorry to tell ya but your fish boy isn't here anymore. Dunno where he went. Didn't try get through to him when he was, nearly killed me."
"Just came to check in on you sis, see if you've heard anything about Dad," Seth replied, not looking at his twin.
Leslie sighed, "Seth, just give up, Dad's dead. It's been five years and no one's heard anything about him, Roy, or Uncle Andrew. Just time to give up."
"Nightwing called me, told me to fetch you and go to the Mountian tomorrow, something about needing us for a mission," he informed her.
"You can tell Nightwing to take his misson and stick it up his ass. I'm not a part of that team anymore, I don't take orders from him. From anybody," She growled at Seth.
The older Drake looked over at her, his eyes piercing hers, "Leslie, just, you know he'd never call us if it wasn't important. Or about Dad, Roy, or Andrew. Please come with. It's not like he's gonna trap you there."
"Fine, but if it's nothing, I'm gone," she growled at him.

"Perfect," Kaldur hissed, keeping Seth's hair in a death grip, staring down at him through the red glass. Oh how times had changed.

"I can't breath!" Lycan gasped, clutching his neck. The godling's vision started to become blurry at the edges, then slowly creep up to black. He heard a low rumble behind him and suddenly they broke the surface. Seth's mouth was suctioning in air to his lungs, repruducing salt water in its place. He felt Kaldur's hand have a death grip on his shoulder, keeping him from flying off the ship; Lycan blacked out after a few minutes of reatching up water.

The sound of a metal door woke Seth. "Father," Kaldur'ahm's voice broke through the hazy fog of his mind, along with the pain admitting from his scalp and throat. It couldn't be a dream, but.. The sudden floor of memories rushed back to the demigod. He had been captured by his ex, his enemy, his mate; now he had no clue where he was, or what was going to happen to him. He looked up and saw Kaldur's father, a muscled black man, sitting at a table with a fork in his hand. Seth growled low in his throat, warning Kaldur he was pissed. But powerless from the blue power ebbing from the ship. Kaldur was planning to capture him all along.
"Congratulations son, you did well. I don't suppose Aquaman died in the explosion," Black Manta questioned his son. Seth saw his eyes examing him, scanning over his body. It was creepy and unnereving.
"Unlikely," Aquaman's ex-protegé replied, not meeting his father's eyes. His hand tightened in Seth's black hair, making the older man yelp sharply in pain.
There was a sigh, along with metal being placed on the wooden table, "Pity. And I suppose this is your boyfriend."
Seth spit, "Ex." His throat hurt from the salt water and the nosies he emitted. He let out another yelp as Kaldur tightened his grip so his suit was now digging into Lycan's scalp. There was a short alarm from his left.
"If you'll excuse me," Black Manta said, pushing himself away from the table. Suddenly Seth was being dragged again, but he could hear the muffled conversation.
