For those of you who have not been turned off by an OC main character thank you for reading. For those who dislike OC's and are giving this a shot anyway I also thank you.

Now I don't work in a hospital and I know nothing about hospital procedure. So if something isn't right deal with it. I know I asked for input but mostly on characters.

I do not own Danny Phantom or Teen Titans

Chapter 2: Changes

Dalia hated the paper dresses at the hospital. They where awkward, down right uncomfortable, and did nothing to improve her aching head. One can only imagine her displeasure when she woke up in one.

Aside from the dress Dalia didn't mind being at Jump General Hospital. She came here enough to visit her dad and most of the nurses knew her by name. Of course it'd be her luck to get the one that didn't know her.

"Glad to see your awake miss." Said a young African American woman decked out in a nurse uniform.

"What happened?"

"You've got a nasty bump on your head, and have been out for two days. Your mother is still out, but your father is conscious. I'll tell him your up. He asked to be informed the moment you woke. Here watch some T.V. while I'm out." She handed Dalia the remote and walked from the room.

With a shrug Dalia turned on the T.V. that hung across from her bed. The news was on and she wanted to find out what had happened the other day. Unfortunately she only caught the end.

"The official name of this new group of heroes was given to us by their new leader, Robin. The Teen Titans consist of Robin and new heroes Cyborg, Raven, Beast Boy, and Starfire." A reporter stated as a picture of the team was shown.

"What on earth? That's the girl who was attacking the city. How did she get to be a hero?" Dalia thought to herself. A sound from in the hall interrupted her thinking.

"Sir, you shouldn't be walking around like that." The nurse from before said

"Don't care. I need to see my baby girl."

The door swung open. There in the doorway was Dr. Rays. Considering a car had exploded a few feat from them he didn't look too bad. He was pale and had a cast on one arm. He also seemed quite steady on his feet contrary to what the nurse behind him said.

"Sweetheart are you alright?" He asked as he walked into the room and sat in a chair beside her bed.

"I'm fine dad. Just confused. Where's mom? What happened the other day?" Dalia said.

"Your mother is fine. She just hit her head a little to hard and broke her arm. She should be coming around in a bit." he assured her.

"And the other day?" she asked.

"From what the news has said the young woman was an alien prisoner who had escaped from a ship. When the beings she escaped from came to get her Robin and a few others saved her." Dr. Rays explained.

"If that's it then why is she being called a hero? Seems to me she was a damsel in distress." Dalia asked with a raised eyebrow.

"After they helped her the aliens that came to get her where going to blow Jump sky high. She helped to stop them."

"Oh well stopping an incident she caused totally makes up for blowing up a street, attacking and hospitalizing people, and destroying a few building." Dalia said with a role of her eyes.

"I know it's a little ridiculous, but she didn't want to hurt anyone." Her father said.

"Your probably right." she said. Then the fact that she hadn't asked how he was hit her. "How are you dad. Are you hurt too bad."

"I'm fine. Got a cut on my side that's healing fine and my arm is a little busted up, but I'm ok." He said with a smile.

Now anyone else would have bought it, but Dalia wasn't just anyone. She was his daughter, and she knew that polite smile was the one he reserved for his patients. She sight. He really should know better by now than to try to hide things from her.

"What aren't you telling me?" Dalia asked firmly

That million dollar smile faltered.

"What do you mean. I've told you. My arm is a little banged up and I've got a cut." he repeated.

"It's more than that. I can tell." she said.

The smile was gone now, and with a sigh he told her "My hand was almost completely crushed, I'm on so much painkillers I'm surprised I'm not hallucinating, and the damage is so extensive I wont be able to operate ever again."

Dalia's eyes went wide. Her dad's hand was crushed. Sure to a certain extent that can be healed but never completely. It all came down to one thing really.

He just lost his job.

"Come on sweetie everything will be fine." he said with a reassuring smile. It was genuine this time.

And everything was fine. Lynda woke two hours later with no complications, and James transferred to the research department. Life moved on and everything was normal. Well except for Dalia.

Dalia didn't think about how she got out of the explosion mostly unharmed. That is until strange things began to happen to her. Accidentally falling over and dropping things wasn't a big deal. (Unless it was the school's. She was one more broken beaker away from being banded from handling school equipment) She didn't even realize there was anything more to it than clumsiness till she fell through a wall at school into the janitor's closet.

Lucky for her no one saw, and she didn't have any friends that would notice. Dalia was already socially awkward, and being goth didn't help. Add the weird going through walls stuff that's been happening to that and her chances of making friends went down.

A lot.

Because of this Dalia worked hard to keep these incidents a secret. And she was successful. For the most part anyway. That is until about a week after Titan's Tower was finished.

This chapter is a bit slow, but important. I love Starfire very much but you got to admit with how much she destroyed when she first arrived there should have been some kind of penalty.

The ending is a bit rushed. I wanted to get the Titans in next chapter and that wouldn't happen if she didn't know there was something going on with her. I may go back later and flesh it out a bit. But that wont happen till the story is over.
