Chapter Text
Danny was not having a good day.
First he woke up late because Ember had decided she was bored in the middle of the night and hypnotized a good chuck of the town.
He missed the bus, and his parents were busy talking about how they had some more new gear to try on "that damn Phantom" and they were too "busy" to drive him. And Jazz had left for college, and was no longer here to drive him to school.
This had become his routine for about a week. Missing the bus because of ghost attacks
Sleeping for only a few hours
Walking to school
Coming back to an empty home.
Eating whatever what was in the house
Doing homework
Trying to sleep
Not. cause of ghost attacks
And repeat
Running to the front door of the school I swinged it open to find mostly empty hallways. Some people lingering around doing things.
Running to my class hoping that the teacher wasn't there
And thankfully he hadn't shown up yet, walking to my seat and sitting I heard Sam and Tucker talking about something
"The theory makes so much sense!" Tucker said
"Really." Sam looked unimpressed
"Well. Where else would he get his money from?" Tucker huffed, turning his head to my direction.
"Where have you been?" Tucker uncrossed his arms.
"Late. The Ghost attack has me tired" I yawned
"Tell me about it" Sam also yawned
"Danny. He probably is, right?!" Tucker said, throwing a playful glare at Sam
"I don't know... I still think my theory is better" Sam said throwing one back at him
"Nuh uh." Tucker crossed him arms glaring at Sam
"Yuh uh" Sam also replied mockingly, glaring at him back
"Nuh uh"
"Yuh uh"
"Nu-"
"Hey. " I erupted the two's banter
"What are you guys even talking about" I yawned once more stretching this time
And they both look at me shocked
"The Batman and Bruce wanye theory" Sam let her hands fall
"We have been talking about it for years!" Tucker said in disbelief
"How did you not know it!"
"Been blocking you guys out." I shrugged and layed my head down
"Whatever- So I think that Bruce Wayne is Batman's sugar daddy" Tucker rubbed the bottom of his chin
"Why would you think that? I stared at him
"Where do you think he gets all the money to buy all his gear." Tucker said confidently
"Yeah. That makes sense" Danny thought staring, amused at how confident Tucker was.
"But-" Sam cut in "I think that Bruce Wayne is Batman"
"Why?"
"I have seen Mr. Wanye at events-"
"Ew rich people" Tucker huffed
"Tell me about it" Sam whiced
"And he has always acted suspiciously and I think that he puts on a front. I have seen the dirty looks he gives at rich people."
"I can see it" I replied getting a little up
After first period ended the two kept arguing, and brought up another topic. The other Waynes
We saw Paulina waiting for us by the lockers
"Are we talking about the Waynes?!" Paulina squealed
"Yeah." Tucker pulled up pictures of them
"Creepy dude" I shivered
"Whatever- Paulina who is your favorite?"
"The first and two, have you seen them?! They are so-" she cut herself off
"No offense babe!"
She pecked a kiss on Sam's cheek
"None taken" Sam gave one back
"Eww." Me and Tucker replied maturely
Walking to class I learned everyone's favorite
Tucker's is Tim Drake because he is smart as fuck
Sam's is Jason Todd because he gives off this "death vibe" and Damian Wanye because of his Kanta
And of course Paulina's is Dick Grayson and Jason Todd
(Weird how they don't have the Wanye name)
I didn't pick a favorite because I don't know them that well...
After school I decided to go to Vald's to check up on Dani to see how they both are.
See my relationship with Vlad had gotten so much better. After we talked and I mean REALLY talked, he stopped trying to kill me and I stopped hating on him so much. I didn't want to talk but Jazz decided we would corner him and she forced us (me) to bond together.
Dani had came to visit and was mad at me for hanging out with him.
But Vlad finally apologized and spent ages trying to make it up to Dani and she forgave him after ages.
See I always knew my parents we you know... bad parents but I didn't think it was the worst.
But after getting spoiled by Vlad I realized my parents were actually really bad... like jail time.
I still lived with them but I spent a lot of time at the castle anyways.
Getting there I put my things in my room. (Which Vlad made for me and Dani had one too.)
The room was sweet, it was space themed! And I spent Vlad's money to buy things to decorate.
I picked up a few hobbies funded by Vlad's money
Gardening was pretty fun. Seeing the plants and flowers growing strong always made my core hum with delight
I picked a few more up and I was planning on starting more.
Finishing up watering my plants I decided going home would be safe. So I could know immediately if there is any ghost attack and what my parents were making to "take down" Phantom.
The house was how I expected, gear everywhere, clothes scattered everywhere and mountains of books piling up to the ceiling
So much for leaving the house clean.
Walking through the mess I went to my room and this day something seemed quiet sure it was nice but it was suspicious. Normally there would be gear machine noises but nope not today. I decided on ignoring it.
Bad decision.
I didn't notice I was knocked out until I heard some voices whispering in my ears.
And also you know... being tied down
I should have stayed at Vlad's
Hearing the voices become clearer they were familiar
Jack and Madeline
My parents suck.

Tbc...
