Chapter Five: The League

Batman did as Aqualad had told him to, which is a new one. Guess he was just as curious as everyone else. Which was also new. To think, the world's greatest detective was outsmarted by two teenagers. Like it was their fault they weren't from their world. 

Other league members, that had been curious over the mysterious twins, had also come to the cave. Not only the four that had already been there, but also Superman, Flash, Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, and Green Lantern (John Stewart). For those that have seen the twins before were shocked to see their hero forms.

''Who are those two,'' Superman asked.

Flash did a really stupid thing and sped up to them.

''The name's Flash, nice to meet you,'' he greeted the twins.

''Eep,'' White squeaked, a gold force field forming around him.

Flash backed away, shocked by his powers. The league and team were also taken back by this.

''Sorry about that,'' Danny apologized. ''My brother is not typically a nervous person. But when he gets shocked or really worried... well... you see what happens.''

White dropped the force field. He took a step more toward his brother. It was quite obvious to everyone that he was uncomfortable.

"Believe it, or not, but this is Danny and White," Kaldur told them.

The two groups of heroes could hardly believe it. They were so different from how they looked in their human forms. Even their blue eyes had changed to Danny's green color and White's gold.

"Were how you looked before just illusions, then," Canary asked.

"Those were our human forms," Danny explained. "Having more than one form has us able to easily hide our identities."

"What are you," Batman asked.

"We. Are. Not. WHATS," White boomed, his siren voice making a slight boom that was like a small burst of wind.

They were all taken back by this. Batman didn't even really mean anything by it, but you can hardly tell because of his emotionless face. Danny knew how much White hated being called a 'what.' He felt the anger too. They were never thought of as 'who' in Amity Park. Just a ghost and siren. They weren't human to them. They were partly right, but that doesn't mean they deserved the treatment they got.

"We are still people," White cried. "So what if we are not human, that doesn't make us any less of a person than you. I am sick and tired of everyone around us treat us like we can't feel. It isn't right, but you all think it is."

"White," Danny said, putting his arm around his brother's shoulders. "It's alright. We aren't there anymore."

Nightwing went over to the two.

"I apologize for Batman," he told them. "He tends to piss people off because he has no filter between his mind and his mouth. He also has a very... let's go with stern personality."

They actually gave Nightwing slight smiles.

"So, would you mind explaining your powers," Superman asked.

Danny kept White close.

"Know that because of our powers, we've been called freaks, seen as disgusting, and hated by everyone," Danny said. "We left our home because we had no one there. No one left for us."

Miss.Martian gasped, covering her mouth. She was always the sweetheart of the team. Hearing two kids, that couldn't be any older than them, say that their entire hometown hated them was hard to hear. It was probably even harder for the two to say.
