…
(General POV)
In an abandoned warehouse, six men dressed in ninja like suits were being addressed by someone in a black silhouette on a large television screen.
"Is everything in order gentleman," the person in black silhouette asked calmly.
"Of course, don't worry about a thing boss," the apparent leader of the six men replied smugly, "by the end of the day T'eon Alpha will be in your hands."
"Excellent," the person on screen replied, "and once it is, your ten million dollar reward will in your hands."
The six men smirked in unison.
…...
"Okay, let's see you move," Hal ordered.
Slowly, Darren started to walk around his father's apartment.
"Let's test out your flying," Hal suggested.
Doing as he was ordered, Darren started to float in the air. He flew around the apartment for a little while.
"And finally let's see invisibility," Hal told his son.
Following his father's command, Darren easily turned himself invisible for a few seconds before turning visible again.
Hal let out a sigh of relief.
"That's good," Hal clapped, "this is a perfect energy twin Darren."
In an instant Darren, who was now revealed to be Energy Twin Darren, disappeared in a ray of green light. A couple seconds later, Darren came out of his father bedroom where he had been controlling the energy twin.
"I was able to hear everything my twin was hearing in my head in the other room," Darren smiled.
Hal nodded.
"The twin transfers everything it sees and hears to your ring and then transfers that information to your brain," Hal explained, "it's an easy thing to do once you get used to it."
"So was the invisibility thing," Darren added, "which was kind of shocking because I thought that was one of the harder techniques to learn."
"It is," Hal confirmed, "invisibility, for us, involves bending the light waves around our bodies. That's an easy thing to do for energy twins because they are a type a light wave and thus it is easy to bend to our will, kind of like our constructs."
Darren nodded taking in this information. Looking up at the clock he saw that it was time for him to go.
"I have to go to the mission briefing," Darren told his father get ready to leave the apartment.
"Alright," Hal nodded with a smile, "just be careful son."
"I will," Darren reassured him a little bit of his timid nature coming out at his words.
"Don't be nervous," Hal advised, "just remember that you are a part of a team and you can relay and trust them. They won't let you down."
"Thanks dad," Darren smiled in gratitude before running out the door.
As the door slammed, Hal let out the nervous breath was keeping in.
"Good luck son."
…
(Mount Justice)
"I'm sorry for keeping everyone waiting," Darren apologized as he flew to where everyone was (he had put on his suit before coming to the base).
"You're not late," Megan reassured him amusedly, "you're actually right on time."
Darren sighed in relief. He didn't want to keep anyone waiting, especially since Batman was the one dong the mission briefing.
"Who are you," Robin asked looking confused.
Darren blinked at him.
"It's me, Kid Lantern," Darren told him.
"I still can't believe Wally named him after his own superhero name," Artemis shook her head in disbelief.
"You can't," Superboy raised an eyebrow at her.
"Well I can," Artemis admitted, "but I didn't think he'd actually do it."
"You can't be Kid Lantern," Robin replied sternly.
"Why not," Darren blinked at the boy wonder.
"There's no Wally beside you," Robin answered serious.
"Huh," Darren tilted his head in confusion.
"Please ignore him," Aqualad said with a sigh, "this is only way Robin can get his kicks."
Robin's stern face dissolved into a teasing smile.
Just then, Kid Flash sped into the room.
"Just made it," Wally grinned walking over to his friends.
"Are you all ready now," Batman asked stoically.
They all nodded.
"Good, let's begin," Batman brought up there screen.
"What do you have for us," Wally rubbed his hands enthusiastically.
"Today you will be guarding a powerful stone called T'eon Alpha," Batman told them.
"What makes it powerful," Artemis asked.
"During the times of the Black Plague there was much panic and death. So much panic that even magical being's sought to protect themselves from death. One day, two powerful wizards created a stone that made them invulnerable from all diseases and sickness, they called it T'eon. In no time at all, the wizards found out that stone gained more and more powerful as time went on. The wizards fearing that their enemies might come after the stone,shattered it into five separate pieces and hurled them across the globe."
"Currently there is a group of vigilantes collecting the parts of the stone," Batman explained, "if anyone was to get their hands on it they could have complete invulnerability to everything under the sun."
"If T'eon Alpha is one piece of it then where are the others," Aqualad asked.
"The vigilantes group already collected them," Batman informed him, "however, all five pieces of the stone must be brought together in order for it to work."
"Where is T'eon Alpha," Megan asked.
"In a museum on Tahiti," Batman brought up a picture of the museum and the stone, "the local Tahiti authorities have been informed of how dangerous the stone is and are going to dispose of it by throwing into their volcano. Your mission is to makes sure that stone gets destroyed."
"A volcano," Wally blinked, "you can't destroy it another way?"
"No," Batman denied, "studies have shown that the only thing the stone could possibly be susceptible to is molten magma."
"Well that's convenient," Superboy noted.
"Any questions," Batman asked.
"Why can't we just throw into the volcano ourselves when we get there," Artemis asked.
"T'eon Alpha has been with Tahiti for several years," Batman explained, "it's been passed down from generation to generation. They want to be the ones to get rid of it. We have no right to interfere with how the state of Tahiti wants to get rid of their treasure."
Artemis nodded in understanding.
"Anything else," Batman asked.
Silence was his only answer.
"Then go," Batman ordered.
…
(On Megan's ship)
"Were you able to perfect your energy twin technique Kid Lantern," Aqualad asked.
Darren's head snapped up at the question that was directed at him. He was so nervous that he zoned out for a second.
"Hm? Oh, yes I did," Darren told him, "and the ability for me to have the energy twin send information to my mind and become invisible."
"Good," Aqualad nodded, "when we get to the museum Robin is going to set heat sensors all around the area. When he finds someone approaching us I want you to send out your energy twin to gain information on our enemy and see what their plan is. Megan will link our minds together as to make sure we all get the information"
"Okay," Darren agreed, "but I won't be able to move while the energy twin activate. Someone will have to watch over me."
"I'll do it," Wally raised up his hand happily.
"Surprise, surprise," Robin mumbled.
Aqualad agreed with this and gave Robin a bit of a warningly look. Robin gave his team leader an innocent smile.
"That's fine Wally just as long as no, um, personal feelings interfere with the mission," Aqualad advised.
Wally just blinked at him.
"What?"
…
"Miss. Martian," Aqualad called out to his teammate telepathically as everyone got in position, "link everyone up."
"Got it."
Focusing her power, Megan connected every one of her teammate's minds with one another's. Now they could communicate with each other without speaking.
"Whoa," Darren had to step back slightly at the feeling of psychic energy connecting his brain, "this is new."
"I know right," Wally nodded with a grin, "you'll get used to it though."
The two of them were sitting on top of the roof observing things from afar.
"I'm getting some readings from my sensors, from the east," Robin informed everyone from his position next to Superboy on the side of the museum.
"I'm ready," Darren nodded.
"If your energy clone is hurt will you be hurt," Wally asked in concern.
"Energy twin," Darren corrected, "and no, there is no way to hurt me through the energy twin. He'll kind of be like a ghost."
Wally nodded and let Darren proceed.
Sitting down Indian style, Darren started to summon up his power. Unleashing his energy, Darren formed a twin of himself right in front of Wally's eyes.
"Cool," Wally smiled at the twin.
Shyly the twin waved at him before flying off to the east where Robin left his sensor.
As soon as the twin made it into the forest, he made himself invisible. He saw six men in forest green suits running toward the museum making great strides.
"Are the fire bombs ready to go off in the city," the one leading everyone asked.
The next to him nodded.
"Yep, the cops will be so distracted that they'll forget about the stone," that man snickered.
"And if not we have our big 'friends' ready to stop the cops in their tracks," other one added laughing sinisterly.
"Come back Kid Lantern," Aqualad advised.
Obeying the order, the energy twin dissolved in a ray of light. With a gasp of air, Darren returned to his own body.
"Everybody get that," Darren asked.
"Yes," Aqualad confirmed, "now here is the plan. Superboy and Robin I want you to stop and apprehend the thieves, Miss. Martian I want you in the village containing the fire and making sure no one gets hurt, and while Artemis and I make sure the cops are alright, I want Kid Flash and Lantern guarding the stone. Everyone okay with that?"
"Sure."
"Yep."
"Finally, some action!"
"Let's get to work," Aqualad ordered.
Immediately everyone went into action.
Climbing down from the roof, Darren and Wally ran into the museum to where the stone was being kept.
"Wow," Darren said in awe as he finally saw the stone, "it's hard to think something so beautiful would so dangerous."
It's true that the stone was indeed a sight to look at. In the light it shined a calming sea green that look very easy on the eyes.
"Yeah it is," Wally admitted before getting serious, "be ready to spring into action at any moment."
"Will Miss. Martian be able to keep up the link between us," Darren asked in concern.
"Don't worry Kid Lantern I'll be fine," Miss. Martian replied who had just gotten to the nearest city to see the fire bombs go off. She was currently containing the fires with her psychic powers.
"This fire is nothing I can't handle, don't worry about me," Miss. Martian reassured him.
"She's a really strong girl," Darren nodded to Wally.
"Of course she is, I use to have a crush on her after all," Wally bragged as if that made Miss. Martian strong.
"Used to? Why don't you have a crush on her anymore," Darren asked.
Wally froze and furrowed his brow in thought. He wasn't really too sure of the answer himself.
"Uh…"
"As much as I would love for you to answer that question Wally," Robin called out suddenly, "we kind have a problem here."
"What's the matter," Aqualad asked. He and Artemis still had caught up with the cop car yet.
"These are NOT ordinary thieves," Robin answered who, along with Superboy were struggling to take down the six men, "they have some kind of super weapon at their disposal. It's disabling my tech and keeps knocking Superboy back. I snatched one from a thief but will take me some time to analyze it and its weaknesses."
"How long will it take," Aqualad asked.
"For me to hack and analyze a foreign weapon I've never seen before in its entirety? About a minute," Robin told him simply.
"Good. I'm sending Artemis to back you up," Aqualad informed him, "Kid's stay on guard."
"Kid's," Wally grinned and looked to Darren, "I like that name it makes us seem like a duo."
Darren smiled blushingly.
…
Aqualad had just made it to the cop car that was going to take the stone to the volcano. He put himself in front of the car in order to stop it.
"What's the big idea," One cop yelled.
"Move out of the way kid," Another cop yelled.
"Please, you two are in great danger," Aqualad informed them.
"Wait a minute, he's that superhero Aqualad," the first cop said as he got a better look at the Atlantean.
"Yeah it is," the second replied with a smile.
Aqualad smiled at them briefly for the gestures of remembrance before getting back to business.
"You two must…"
Aqualad stopped as he heard a loud rumbling.
Summoning his water powers, he created two swords and prepared himself for battle.
Slowly, the rumbling kept getting closer and closer, until it finally reached the three of them. Aqualad gasped as he saw what was ahead of him.
"I think we may have a problem," Aqualad said to himself as he saw several eyes staring at him attached to very large bodies.
…
"It's been really quiet," Darren pointed out, "maybe this mission won't be so tough after all."
"Don't say that," Wally tried to tell him.
"Why," Darren asked.
"Because…"
"We have a problem," Aqualad called out.
"Never mind," Wally replied dryly.
"We've got several large enemies coming at us from my direction," Aqualad informed his teammates, "I'm holding off some of them but a couple are getting past me. They're heading straight for museum."
"What should we do," Darren asked nervously.
"Take the stone and throw it into the volcano yourselves," Aqualad ordered, "we can't let anyone get a hold on that stone!"
"Leave it to us," Wally grunted punching a whole in the stones glass and taking it out of its holding area.
Darren blinked at him.
"You know I could have just lifted the glass up myself," Darren reminded him.
"Yeah but that wouldn't have been as dramatic," Wally explained. "and a superhero is nothing if not dramatic. Now, let's go."
Speeding out of the museum, Wally and Darren raced to where the volcano was in order to destroy the stone.
Both of them stopped in their tracks as a tree was thrown in their way. Both of them looked over to see a very large being in a black cloak staring at them with bright glowing eyes.
"Take the stone to the volcano," Wally advised his friend, "I'll take of care this big guy over here."
"Um, okay but please be careful," Darren pleaded as he took the stone from Wally.
"I will now go," Wally ordered running up to their enemy.
Darren sighed before beginning flying up to the volcano again. Before he could get far, one of the big men jumped up out of nowhere tackled him to the ground.
"Ah," Darren cried out in shock as he was not expecting the hit. The man was using all of his body weight to hold him down.
"Kid Lantern," Wally shouted threw the link. Immediately he abandoned his fight with the first guy to deliver a powerful punch to the one on top of Darren.
"Don't you ever put your hands on him," Wally roared angrily.
That blow caused the man cloak to come off.
"There robots," Wally revealed as he saw its face. Darren got up off the ground and look at the robot for himself.
Indeed the man was a fully automated android. For some reason it was built in the shape of a gorilla.
"Let's bust them up," Wally grinned at his friend who gave him a nod.
Running at a supersonic speed, Wally tackled the android in front of him causing it to fall flat on its face again.
Darren took on the other one. Using his ring, he created a giant spear and hurled it at the gorilla android.
Easily, the android caught the spear. However, it didn't count for Darren to break apart the spear into four drills each digging into a separate part of him. Once they all were full imbedded into the robots Darren made each drill exploded shattering the robot into several parts.
"That was it," Wally exclaimed having just defeated his robot as well, "this was easy."
"I know," Darren nodded, "that didn't take any effort at all."
Just as those words left his mouth, the robots started to reassemble themselves. Each part was carefully, but quickly, put back together with one another reforming the robot they came from.
"Spoke to soon," Wally groaned.
"More of them are coming," Darren pointed out.
Walking from behind some trees, about three more robots showed up.
"Let's try a combo attack," Wally suggested.
"How," Darren asked.
"Like this," Wally took Darren and held him above his own head.
"What are you doing," Darren wondered.
"Create a wrecking ball or something," Wally ordered.
Complying, Darren constructed a wrecking ball from his ring. As soon he was done, Wally started spinning the both of them around in a circle. This cause the wrecking ball Darren made to start swinging around rapidly. With each swing it hit a robot as they made their way to the two boys. In not time the wrecking ball totaled the five gorilla robots.
"That was fun," Wally grinned setting Darren down.
"I'm glad one of us had fun with that," Darren replied wobbling from how dizzy he was.
Unfortunately, the robots once again were starting to put themselves together again.
"Son of a bitch," Wally yelled, "what does it take to kill these things."
"Kid Flash," They heard Robin call out through Wally's communicator.
"What is it," Wally asked.
"I just hacked the schematics for these things from the thieves," Robin told them, "in order to defeat those robots you must destroy each part individually."
"Seriously," Wally asked in shock.
"Got it," Darren replied. Using his ring, Darren created concealed boxes in order to contain each and every broken part.
Speeding to each box, Wally destroyed each individual part.
"Okay," Wally sighed, "now we can…"
There was another rumbling sound coming their way.
"Okay, somebodies just trying to fuck with me now," Wally grumbled.
What appeared was a giant sized version of the gorilla robots. It looked to be the size of three of them put together.
Wally looked up at the gorilla and gulped.
"Kid Lantern, let's just chuck that stone in the volcano and get this mission over with," Wally spoke lowly.
"Agreed," Darren said shivering at the size of the robots.
Quickly, the two of them fled to the volcano with the robot hot on their tail.
"He's catching up," Darren looked back at the slowly approaching machine.
"When need a boost for both of us," Wally replied with emphasis.
Thinking fast, Darren flew down and attached himself to Wally's back. Summoning his power, he created a jet pack himself and Wally boosting up their speed and carrying both of them up the volcano to its crater.
"I'll hold him off," Darren told his friend.
"Don't do anything crazy," Wally squeezed his hand briefly.
Darren nodded before going to intercept the gorilla robot that was almost at the crater. Creating some hooks, Darren held the robot back as best as he could.
Wally held up the stone above his head.
"Sayonara Teana stone," Wally said pronouncing its name incorrectly, "though I never knew ye, I'm sure you could have saved many a life in this cold cruel world. Tis a pity that you may never…"
"Wally," Darren yelled struggling to hold to the robot.
"Oh fine," Wally grumbled throwing the stone down the volcano. It exploded instantly.
"You people always ruin my fun," Wally mumbled.
Just as the stone was destroy the robot shut itself down. It fell into a mass of parts falling down the volcano.
"Sweet," Wally gave Darren a grin.
"Mission accomplished."
…
"I can't thank you all enough for all you have done for us," the chief of police shook Aqualad hand.
The team was all at the main hall of the city Megan saved and were being thanked for all their hard work.
"We were happy to help sir," Aqualad replied.
"Did you find out who sent those goons and robots after the stone," Miss. Martian asked Robin.
Robin nodded.
"Some guy named William Dawson. I'll look him up when we get back to the base."
Wally went over and hugged Darren fiercely.
"You were great," Wally told him, "we work really well together."
"Thanks," Darren giggled, "I have something for you."
"What," Wally blinked at him,
Sheepishly, Darren reached around and gave his friend one of the fingers from the robot.
"Souvenir," Darren told him hesitantly.
Wally let out a gasp of happiness and hugged him even tighter.
"Kid Flash," Darren giggled as their faces rubbed together.
"Are those two always like that," a reporter asked.
Robin looked over and saw that a couple people were taking pictures of all of them, but mainly were focusing on Kid Flash and Lantern.
"Come with me," Robin grabbed the reporter and her camera man, "we have much to discuss."
A sly smirk made it onto Robins face.
