Scorpion and Danny were standing against the wall of the hallway. There were two wooden doors beside each other, Scorpion was standing beside the door with Danny next to him, he grabs his green pole from his pocket and grabs the two ends of the pole and expands it only allowing the blade of the hook out. He turns to Danny who was adjusting his mask as he had his axe in hand but still avoiding eye contract
Mac:Khan might be expecting us...what are you planning on doing with him?
Danny:Whatever it takes...let's just keep going...can I trust you to keep the amulets safe? I know that Khan will be expecting the amulets to be on me
Mac:The amulets will be fine, we'll return them to your friend when we have the chance...do you think we'll come out alive?
Danny:We will, we're warriors of K'un L'un, we won't back down...*Mac nods in response then he and Danny had kicked the door open, they stepped over the wooden doors laid flat on the ground as they stood in position with their weapons in hand. They lowered their weapons as the room they stepped in was empty, the only thing left was the white pillars and stairs from where Danny was held captive. They walked inside the room as they looked around*
Mac:This is odd, Khan should be here...this is the only place where the elders wouldn't look into...
Danny looks around the room and looks straight ahead to the dark blue wall in front of him. He walks towards it as he felt the atmosphere turn hot, he moved his hand against the wall. Scorpion walks towards him in confusion, Danny placed his ear against the wall as he hears faint footsteps from the other side of the wall. He then stepped away from the wall and had lit up his fist, Scorpion stepped beside him and had covered his eyes with his arm as Danny had already punched the wall and it had formed a hole. He removed his arm from his face and sees Khan looking at them in surprise as he was had a huge green crystal in the middle of the room, Ava and Luke were each standing in Khan's side as they glared motionless at Danny and Mac as they walked over the broken pieces of the wall.
Master Khan:You dare break into my lair?!
Danny:Let my friends go Khan...and surrender if you want to do this the easy way
Master Khan:Unbelievable...you sure don't know when to give up do you Young Dragon? You've must be very desperate to defeat me if you even started working alongside a traitor whom had hurt us both dearly...*Danny glances over to Mac who kept a firm and defensive posture, Danny then looks back to Khan*
Danny:Although Mac has been a dick to both of us, he's still my brother and I can't get rid of him
Mac:Was that supposed to be a compliment?*he asked towards Danny sounding defended as Danny didn't made eye contact*
Master Khan:Touching...destroy them my servants*Danny and Mac stood in position as Ava and Luke stood in front of them, Luke ran towards him with his hammer and swings it past Danny's face in which he quickly backs away and dodged and had swung his legs past Luke's feet causing him to fall back. Danny then stood over him as his fist glowed up*
Danny:Sorry Luke...
He sighed then he swings his glowing fist past Luke's cheek causing him to instantly knock out on the floor. Danny turns to Mac who was running towards Ava who was shooting arrowing at him but he instantly dodges them, Ava reaches her hand behind her arrow bag behind her and doesn't feel the end of an arrow and so she looks past her shoulder and doesn't see any arrows, she then gotten kicked against the wall that instantly knocked her unconscious
Master Khan:This is ridiculous!*he yelled horrified then he had threw his hands towards Mac and Danny revealing purple lightening strikes towards them, stopping them from moving. Both Danny and Mac struggled to break free as the strike felt like it was burning through their skin as the axe attached to the chain around Danny's arm and slipped down and landed onto the floor and he moved his arm towards the wall and the axe had flew over to the wall near Ava, pulling it away from Danny to be able to grab it*You kids don't know when to give up...it can't be!*his eyes widened in pure fear as he sees Danny forcing himself heading towards Khan, looking like he couldn't feel the lightening*No! That's impossible! Flames of Faltine!*he spoke as fire came out of his hands and aimed towards Danny, the flames had combined with the bolts turning the bolts orange, Danny stepped back in shock and confusion as he looks at his hands and arms that was surrounded with the orange force around him*
Danny:W-what's happening?*he said not knowing that his voice was a bit high pitched, he didn't know what was happening and turns to Mac for a response who was struggling to move out of the bolt*Mac! W-what's going on with my body?
Mac:I...don't know!*he groaned out struggling to speak and move from the bolt*
Master Khan:What matter of man are you?!*the orange force from Danny's body had sucked inside his hands like he was absorbing the force*Impossible! I have to focus all my power into one last supreme spell...Crimson Bands of Cyttorak!*the red laser ropes had wrapped itself around Danny tying his body up, he tried to move but the rope kept getting tighter and tighter*I'm surprised Daniel...my powers are indestructible, especially the flames...it should have killed you, but instead...you absorbed it, how?
Danny:I don't...k-know!*he managed to respond back with a raspy tone as the rope kept tightening him, not allowing him to breath*
Master Khan:You're more interesting than I thought...hm...*he turns to the huge green crystal in front of him then he forms a wide grin, Danny glares at him through the mask as he kept struggling to move as his body kept tightening, he stood still and looks down to his fists waiting for them to light up but didn't, he turns and sees Mac struggling to move as he was gasping loudly for air, he became light headed as he felt his chest tightening up*There's no point in trying to escape children...you'll die anyway...
Danny glared at him from under his mask giving an icy stare. Khan had raises his hand towards the walk behind him as the green crystal had shined a bright white light towards the wall. It opened up a hole that had showed a house, a house that Danny was familiar with, it was Peter's house. Fear struck into Danny's eyes, he froze and stared with wide eyes under his mask in which Mac started to cough badly. Khan began to chuckle with an evil grin as he sees Danny who froze, he then looks towards the huge broke hole in the wall and sees the female spy and the Steel Serpent. As they began to run towards him and jump towards Khan, they gotten grabbed by red laser ropes that had tied each of them together and was thrown back towards the pillar. Danny kept quiet in fear as he kept his attention to the portal, he couldn't hear the yells from the Serpent who was tied behind him, who was constantly calling him name
Master Khan:You're scared aren't you?*he asked as he still had a grin on his face, Danny kept his head down not giving a response that had made Khan furious but still had his resting face*You don't have to answer now...you'll answer when I bring you the spider's head and everyone that you care deeply about...*Danny gave no response then he forms himself a frown of pure annoyance expecting a response*Very well...I'll tell Parker that you said hi*he opened his hand that had revealed a blue knife that had a curved blade, he then proceeded to step inside the portal but stops in slight surprise as he heard Danny yelling at him to stop that had echoed around the room, the spy and the Serpent looks at him in shock then Khan had formed himself a small grin before he turned around and faces towards Danny who still had his head down, Khan's knife then faded away from his hand*
Danny:Stop it...do whatever you want with me but leave him and everyone else out of it...
Steel Serpent:Him? Who is he Daniel?!*he asked that was slighting pissed from his tone of voice then the red laser rope had wrapped around his and the spy's mouth not allowing them to talk*
Master Khan:Silence!*he then hovered towards Danny who just glared at him, he began to feel his heart beating as he felt his throat dry, Khan grinned in amusement as he stares at Danny*How does it feel to be scared...trapped with no way out...with no one to rescue you...? I know that you have the jade amulets...and I want it back*Danny looks away from Khan as he looks to the ground, Khan grew even more furious and had slapped Danny to the floor as he remained tied up, the spy and the Steel Serpent watched in fear as Danny was on the floor*Tell me where the amulets are!*Danny gave no response in which Khan began to step on his cheek pressing half of Danny's face against the floor*Last chance Daniel...where are the amulets?*he asked with a low growl under his breath, Danny kept quiet as Khan began to furiously lift up his foot. The teens' eyes widened as they see and hear the thudding of Khan repeatedly stepping his foot on Danny's face waiting for Danny to speak. The teens' bulging eyes watched in total fear as they see Danny getting kicked in the face facing towards their direction, they saw blood coming out of Danny's forehead*Tell me where the amulets are Iron Fist*he grabs Danny by his hair pulling off his mask, exposing his red and dirty cheeks*
Danny:I don't have them...
Master Khan:Don't you dare lie to me! I know that you have the amulets*he yelled furiously as he pushes his arm forward making the rope to attach itself against the wall as Danny had his back pasted against the wall but still couldn't move*
Danny:I don't...*he then glances past Khan and sees Ava starting to slowly stand up from the wall, she sees the axe on the floor and turns to Danny who had turned his attention to Khan*
Master Khan:You dare pick death than being honest!*his knife with the curved blade had appeared in his hand again as he raises it*
Danny gave no expression as he notices Ava walking slowly behind Khan with the axe, she grips onto the handle of the axe tightly, Danny could tell that she was nervous as he sees Ava raise the axe with the blade aiming at Khan. She raised the axe down but the axe gotten stopped by a green glow covering the axe, Ava tried to move the axe but stopped as she noticed that it couldn't move, Khan then turned towards her with a glare in the corner of his eye then the red laser ropes had wrapped around Ava tying her up, she was thrown against the pillar beside the spy and the Serpent
Master Khan:Foolish children! You really think you can defeat me?! You are surely mistaken! Now tell me where the amulets are or your friends will die tonight!*he threatened hoping for Danny to give an answer of the location of the amulets, but instead he gave no answer, he kept his cold expression. Khan then turns to Ava and the other two tied up teens, he then glances to his pocket as he reminded himself of the gold necklace and locket*I applaud you Daniel...*he then walked away from Danny as he looks at him in confusion but still annoyed*It's amazing to know that you're loyal to your masters, your friends..
Danny:Thanks for the praise, can I be free now?
Master Khan:Silence fool!*he yelled as he turns to Danny, he then scoffed as he took out the gold necklace from his pocket and opens the locket, he sees a picture of Danny's mother who looked young. He then glances up from the locket towards Danny who was glaring at him then he forms a wide grin*You are a splitting image of your mother Daniel, do you have a photo of your father?
Danny:Give that back!*he shouted angrily that made Ava surprised*
Master Khan:*he chuckled as he sees Danny moving and trying to open his arms but the rope only gotten tighter*I will, if you tell me where the amulets are...if you do that then I'll think of also letting your friends go...*Danny gave a glare at Khan giving no response*Perhaps this will change your thinking...*he gave a smirk as a black pillar with a black bowl over it had fire flame, he raised the necklace over the fire that made Danny widen his eyes*
Danny:Stop it Khan! Please!*he pleaded desperately*
Master Khan:Then tell me where the amulets are Daniel Rand...*Danny stared defenseless, he forms a frown as he had his head down, it made Ava's eyes widen in shock then she yelled out to Danny*
Ava:Danny don't tell him! Please don't!*Khan glances over to her in annoyance, Danny kept his head down as his hair blocked his side of the face that Ava was facing not being able to properly see his face*Danny it's just a necklace! Think about the amulets power! Don't you know what he will do with it?! If he gets the amulets we'll die anyway!
Master Khan:Utterly annoying*he groaned in annoyance as the red rope had tied over her mouth not allowing her to speak, he then turns to Danny who still had his head down*Tell me where the amulets are or I'll drop your necklace into the fire, melting it...your choice
Danny:*he kept his head down in panic not knowing what to do since he was tied up and unable to move along with the team*(what do I do? I need that locket and I can't give up Ava's amulets...what would Peter do in a situation like this...what do I do...?)*he whimpered as he remained keeping his head down then he opened his mouth to talk but only gotten interrupted by Scorpion's voice, his eyes widened then he looks up and sees Mac who had his katana up against Khan's neck as he was behind his shoulder, he was taking breath after each gasp as the purple bolt began to fade away into smoke*
Mac:Let everyone go Khan, and maybe I'll think about letting you live...
Master Khan:You're bluffing, you think you're worthy enough to kill me Gargan?*Mac glared at him with pure anger as he squinted his eyes towards him, he then glared at Danny who began to talk*
Danny:Scorpion stop!
Mac:Shut up!*he yelled in response to Danny making him quickly close his mouth*You think I'm not worthy to fight you Khan? You're so self centered...
Master Khan:Of course you aren't...perhaps this is a good time to think once more about that offer from before...*Mac remained silent as he avoided eye contact with Danny, he had his head slightly titled down*
Danny:Mac...!*he yelled out, Mac ignored him as Danny kept calling his name until Mac had removed the blade of the katana from Khan's throat. Danny then sat quiet in surprise as he sees Mac tilt his head up facing him, he was staring at Danny with dull and cold eyes. He remained quiet then Khan had formed his usual smirk*
Master Khan:Now Daniel, where are the amulets?*he asked as he still had the gold necklace over the fire, Mac stood beside him as he had his katana in hand, he kept his attention to Danny with an emotionless face*
Danny:W-why...? Why did Mac...?*he spoke out that sounded almost like a whisper as he had his head down*
Master Khan:I gave Mac an offer Young Dragon, it was either death or rule a kingdom...
Danny:A kingdom...?*he spoke as he kept his head down, he then sat in silence as he was mostly confused, then his eyes widened in realization*Mac! You're still trying to take my place for K'un L'un?!*he asked towards Mac with a dark and threatening tone, he had a deep and angry glare on his face turning to Mac who mostly had no expression and didn't answer back*Answer me!
Master Khan:I'm terribly sorry Young Dragon but haven't the elders taught you to not trust anyone? Clearly you are the worst Iron Fist ever...*he insulted calmly as he kept a cold look on his face*Come Mac, we have work to do...*he spoke as he calmly allowed the gold necklace slip out of his fingers landing into the fire, he and Scorpion had walked towards the stairs, Mac turned around and stopped giving a last look to Danny of little regret and he calmly walked back to Khan. Danny sat tied up in full anger, feeling betrayed not noticing his fists getting lit up, His glowing fists began to burn the red laser ropes then Mac quickly turned around with Khan turning his direction right after, both their eyes widened as they see Danny rip the red laser ropes as his fists glowed and he kicked the pole of fire making the gold locket to fall out of the fire that didn't have any scratches or burn marks on it. Danny had ran towards them as his fists glowed then he grabs Khan's arm making it burn from his glowing burning fist, he then placed Khan in front of him with his arm around his neck as his free glowing fist was beside his head, Mac reaches for his katana from his back as Danny took a step back making Khan sweat in panic*
Danny:Don't grab your weapon Scorpion and I won't hurt Khan*Mac gritted his teeth then he groaned in frustration as he moved his arm away from the katana holder on his back*
Master Khan:W-what in the dragon are you doing Daniel?! Let go of me this instant!*he yelled furiously but Danny only had tightened his grip around his neck making him quickly close his mouth as he shook*
Danny:Tell me why I shouldn't just kill you right now*he asked in a low and dark tone sounding serious that made Ava and the two warriors get goosebumps*
Master Khan:Young Dragon please! I beg of you, have mercy! I-I didn't meant for this to go far...tell me what I should do please!
Danny:Free my friends, or I'll crush your ears
Master Khan:*He then felt his neck tighten up by Danny's arm then he snapped his fingers that caused his body to disappear and leave behind smoke, the teens looked around and sees Khan appear on a high pedestal looking down on them*Foolish child, if you thought that I would let your helpers go then you're mistaken
Danny:What do you want Khan?
Master Khan:Is that difficult to figure out Young Dragon? I want the jade amulet, only you would have a powerful gem!
Danny:I told you that I don't have it
Master Khan:Lies! Mac retrieve the amulet from him! Kill him if you have to!*Mac stared at Danny ashamed then he took his katana out from his back as Danny glared at him, his glowing fist began to fade away as he stood still waiting for Mac to make a move*
Scorpion had swung his katana past Danny's head in which he quickly dodges snd ducks under the blade of the katana. Danny sees his chained axe on the floor then he turns back to Mac who had swung the katana down towards his legs, Danny jumps over the katana and had kicked him on the face by he grabs his ankle and had thrown Danny over his head making him fall back to the ground. Mac had stepped towards him then Danny had lifted both of his legs causing his feet to touch Mac's stomach and throw him over Danny and land against the wall. Khan had groaned in frustration as he sees Danny get up and head towards his chained axe, he moved his glowing arm causing the axe to slid away from Danny and stop at the white pillar in front of Danny. Danny had glanced back over his shoulder he sees Mac heading towards him and was showing off his katana, Khan's eyes widened as he sees Danny lit up both of his fists and had quickly turned around facing Mac and had punched his stomach making the whole room to shake. The room had shook badly enough for Khan to fall off of the pedestal and land on the floor, pieces of the ceiling had fallen off and had landed on the floor along with a white pillar that had huge cracks, the green gem had also had a huge crack that had made Khan to worriedly crawl towards it only moving his forearms. Then Danny had stepped in front of him blocking him from getting closer to the gem as Khan looks up to him in fear
Master Khan:P-please, m-mercy! Give me mercy Young Dragon! Please!*he pleaded desperately as he had his head down with his hands clapped together. Danny just responded with silence and had turned to the green gem behind him*
Danny:What's the gem for Khan? Receiving your powers?
Master Khan:I-it's a gem for t-teleportation Young Dragon...
Danny:*he looks over at the tied up teens and over to Luke's unconscious body, he stares at the portal in front of him showing Peter's house*Let my friends go then I won't hurt you
Master Khan:Y-y-yes!*he snapped his fingers as the red ropes around the teenagers had faded away. They stood up freely as the Steel Serpent gives a glare at Mac who was struggling to get up, he had stomped towards Mac's direction with an angry look on his face. Danny looks at them in slight worry and had turned to the female spy and had titled his head towards Khan signaling her to watch over him in which she nodded*
Steel Serpent:You traitor!*he yelled angrily as he raises his fist but was stopped by Danny who had stepped between them*
Danny:Davos calm down, we don't want another fight to break out
Steel Serpent:Why are you defending him?! He has broken your trust Daniel, how can we ever trust him again?!
Danny:It's not his fault, he was mind controlled...by Master Khan*Mac looks up to him surprised for Danny standing up for him, Davos looks at Danny in disbelief*
Steel Serpent:How was he mind controlled? He looked perfectly in control when he nearly cut your head off
Danny:It's the truth, Khan had mind controlled him just like how he controlled me and my teammates*Davos stared at him and looks down to Mac who looks away ashamed, Davos then scoffed and had walked away as Danny let out a small sigh. He turned down towards Mac who was silent*
Mac:Brother, I was-
Danny:Stop*he interrupted him*This is the last time that I'll defend you Scorpion*he then reached his hand out to him as Mac stared at it*The amulets*Mac then quickly nodded and had took out the three amulets from his pocket and places it on Danny's hand*I'm surprised that you didn't tell Khan about the amulets
Mac:You trusted me to keep them safe...that's what I did*he looks away embarrassed as Danny forms a small smile*
Danny:Thanks Mac...*he then walks towards Ava who had sat Luke up against the pillar*Is he still not up yet?
Ava:No he isn't, how hard did you hit him?
Danny:That's what I want to know, occasionally he would be knocked out for a few minutes and now it's been over an hour
Ava:Occasionally? You punched him before?
Danny:Yes surprisedly...here*he hands the amulets towards Ava who she quickly grabs and looks at the amulets at her hand*
Ava:How is it in three pieces?
Danny:I hurt a spirit to get the amulets for Khan
Ava:You mean that you killed an animal?
Danny:I was controlled, I have an excuse
Ava:What about the tiger finding me and Luke? Did you control the tiger?
Danny:It's complicated, weirdly it was difficult to control the tiger it was well guarded of it's mind
Ava:And Khan had caught you?
Danny:He accused me of doing something to his tiger, he has no proof*Ava them gave a small giggle and she grabs Luke's arm and places it over her neck*
Ava:Let's go back home, Peter is probably waiting for you*Davos had turned to them as he heard an unfamiliar name, he watches Danny and Ava carry Luke towards the portal*
Steel Serpent:You're leaving? Without saying goodbye?
Danny:I have business to attend to, I'll come back soon
Master Khan:No you can't!*he then raised his arm as a huge blue anvil had appeared over the green cracked gem*You're not leaving until I get what I wan-!*he then gotten cut off as the teens saw a katana stabbed through his chest, blood had came out of his mouth and the anvil was already falling onto the gem, Danny quickly pushed Ava and Luke through the portal before it closed. Ava and Luke landed in the middle of the street in front of Peter's house. Danny then turned to Mac who was still sitting against the wall as he didn't have his katana with him, he then jumped on top of the shattered green gem and had walked in front of Khan who was dazed but still alive with the katana stabbed through his chest*
Danny:You're still trying to get the amulets Khan? Just give up*Khan remained dazed and started to ignore Danny*We can still heal you back to health Khan, but you have to stop your sorcery*Davos only responds with an eye roll and he sees the axe against the pillar, he walks towards it as Mac began to stand up by had fallen back still injured. He then stood back up properly as he sees Danny's golden locket on the floor and he stumbled towards it, he crouches down and grabs the locket*
"Excuse me for my rudeness Young Dragon, but shouldn't Khan be executed for his wicked sorcery and his insane idea to keep you and us hostage and keep us as puppets. As well to being the cause of the destruction of the city and losses of the people"
Danny:Yes he should, but I feel pity for him, he wanted an army to kill the king of Halwan for torturing and murdering his family...I know how that feels like
Steel Serpent:You're too compassionate Daniel...sooner or later it will be the cause of your death*he spoke as he walks towards Danny and stood by his side as he had the axe in hand. Danny looks at him confused as Davos had handed him the axe forcing him to grab*
Danny:What are you doing Davos?
Steel Serpent:Handing you your weapon. You need it to put an end in all this
Danny:By what? By killing him?
Steel Serpent:Of course, end it. You'll regret it if you don't do it
Danny:I'll regret it more if I actually do it Davos, I don't want to commit a murder
Steel Serpent:If that's what you think then you're not worthy enough to be our leader...a leader wouldn't hesitate to kill our enemies
Mac:What are you planning of Daniel to do Davos?
Steel Serpent:To do it. To end everything related to Khan
Danny:I'm not going to end a person's life! No matter how good or bad they are I won't do it!*Davos then furiously grabbed the axe from Danny's hand and had forcefully swung the axe through Khan's neck cutting it clean off. Blood had splattered on Danny's hand and outfit as Davos had blood splatter on his hand as well, they watched Khan's head fall onto the floor as a pool of blood surrounded the head and Khan's beheaded body had fallen forward to Danny's feet causing him to step back as another pool of bad began to form. Danny watched in horror as Davos had handed him back the axe that had drops of blood dripping to the floor*
Steel Serpent:Don't hesitate next time Daniel, we wouldn't want a weak leader*he then walked away leaving the spy and Mac with Danny who just remained silent then Danny had tossed the axe beside the body then he stopped*I'll find father and Yu-Ti...we'll have to contact Doctor to teleport you back to your home...*he spoke without facing them then he turns his head back*And I suggest for you two to leave before you're punished...*he said towards the female spy and Scorpion who just gave silence as a response, he then turned back forward and walks away*
"I'll be on my way Young Dragon"*she spoke as she bowed at Danny*
Danny:Y-yeah, uh do I know you? Your eyes are familiar to someone I know*he spoke unsure about himself as the spy slightly widened her eyes then she turns away*
"Well yes, but now is not the time to reveal myself. If I do then it causes more problems, but we'll bump into each other again"*Danny towards her as she looks at him with a smile under her mask that Danny and Mac would be able to see through, she then ran out of the room as Mac turns to Danny as he grips the golden locket in his hand. He then hands the golden locket to Danny*
Mac:I managed to grab it...it doesn't look damaged*Danny then grabs the locket and smiled towards it*
Danny:Thanks...*he then closed his fist with the locket inside and turns back to Mac*Do you know how you'll be able to manage being by yourself? You can ask me for a place to hideout in, I own plenty of private condos
Mac:I'm not sure your spider boyfriend will like you helping me
Danny:I'm sure he won't mind, we're family and we're supposed to help each other
Mac:After I nearly killed you?
Danny:Well...you're still going to pay me back since you nearly cut my neck...*they then stood awkwardly silent*Just let me help you out in the meantime to adjust to the city, then we can be on fighting terms again*Mac remained silent shocked about Danny's choice then Danny forms a bright smile towards him*I'll handle everything Mac so you can trust me
~~~~~~
Jessica and Peter were heading towards the stairs but stopped as they see the door knob rattle and swing open. Peter's eyes widened in shock as Jessica raises an eyebrow confused that they see Ava in her white tiger costume as Luke was passed out.
Peter:Geez what happened?*he asked in a low whisper as Aunt May and Kristy were in the kitchen, Sam looks at them from the couch with his phone in hand*
Ava:Luke is knocked out, I need to put him on his bed
Jessica:I'll help you with that*she then grabs Luke's arm and pulls him towards her from Ava and she places his arm over her head and behind her neck, she wraps her free arm around Luke's back legs and places him over her shoulder. She then calmly walks up the stairs as Sam watched in shock, Peter and Ava walked up the stairs behind Jessica heading down the hall towards Luke's room*
Peter:Where's Danny?
Ava:He stayed behind
Peter:Stayed behind? Where?
Ava:In K'un L'un, our vacation to the city started early due to the amulet
Peter:H-he stayed behind? Why?
Ava:The portal was closing not having time for him to enter...I'm sure he'll figure out a way to come back home
Jessica:Yeah Parker, I doubt he'll leave you behind*she then opens the door to Luke's room and walks inside to place Luke on his bed*
Peter:So did you guys solve the mission?
Ava:Well yes I think...you'll have to ask Danny about that
Peter:Ah yes, I will...*he forces a small soft smile then he felt an arm wrap around his neck and gotten pulled down, he looks up and sees Jessica hugging his neck under her shoulder*
Jessica:Peter is having some thoughts about his relationship with money bags*Peter then blushes*
Peter:N-no I'm not!*he quickly said up to her in which she ignored*
Ava:Thoughts? Like what?
Peter:I-it's nothing you should worry about!
Jessica:Well he's being emotional lately, and I've been thinking if you can talk some sense into him since you're the mature one
Ava:Then shouldn't he talk to Danny about it than me?
Jessica:That's what me and Mary said, but Peter is too stubborn to talk about his feelings with him
Peter:I'm not stubborn! I'm just...shy to talk about it...*he spoke softly and embarrassed as he looks down to the floor*
Jessica:Yeah he gets shy, isn't it cute?
Ava:I-I guess, but what thoughts are you exactly having Peter?
Peter:It's a bit messed up...I rather not say it, in the middle of the hallway at least, and I know that you'll tell Danny or Sam
Ava:I wouldn't, Sam would be the one to tell Danny and even the whole school, do you want to tell me when you're ready?*Peter quickly responded with a nod*
Jessica:Well how was your mission with money bags? Where is he?
Ava:He'll come back...right now I just have to call my mom and take a shower
Jessica:Yeah go ahead...*she stepped aside with Peter as Ava walks past them heading to her room, then Jessica had freed her arm around Peter's neck and places her hands inside her pockets*So what will you do Pete? Are you going to talk to him?
Peter:Uh maybe...
Jessica:Maybe? You should grow some balls and talk to him, he's not going to read your mind
Peter:I know that, I just don't know how to talk to him...his situation with Emma is bad at the moment and now that he's going to come home tired from a mission, we probably won't have a chance to talk
Jessica:That might happen but knowing money bags he'll tell you everything when he comes back, just talk to him casually or he'll start worrying about you
Peter:I-I guess...but what about the thing I told you earlier?
Jessica:Oh about that...maybe it's better to not tell him about it, your feelings for him will start showing its colors soon...you just have to wait
~~~~~~
A while later, Jessica was putting her bag over her shoulder as she was walking down the stairs ready to leave. She then grabs the door knob about to turn it but gotten called by Aunt May who had her hands behind her back as if she was hiding something, she she turned around and forms a friendly smile to her
Jessica:Ms.Parker, I was about to leave...
Aunt May:Isn't it a bit late to go back home Jessica? You can sleep for the night
Jessica:No it's fine, my sister is waiting for me so I should get going
Aunt May:Well take these*she hands Jessica a brown rough bag, Jessica grabs it with a smile*It's a bag of cookies that I just baked, I made a lot for Mary Jane's cousin
Jessica:She's not here yet?
Aunt May:Not yet, she must have a long shift right now at her job, I was planning on taking her cousin at her house in a few minutes if she not here by then
Jessica:I can drop her off for you, I was just about to leave and I know where she lives
Aunt May:Are you sure? I don't want to pressure you
Jessica:It's fine, I'm not a stranger to her cousin or her family, I can text Mary that I dropped her off
Aunt May:Thank you Jessica, and how is Peter feeling? He didn't look well when we had dinner
Jessica:He's feeling better, he just need some space...
~~~~~~
It was late at night where everyone were already sleeping. Peter was laying sideways on his bed facing the window, he laid on bed awake having trouble sleeping. He then groaned and placed his blanket over his head as he closes his eyes tempting to go to sleep but couldn't, he then removed the blanket from his face as he felt sweaty under the sheets. He stared at the closed window in front of him as he began to fill his mind with questions if Danny got home safe or if Danny will stay in K'un L'un. He then felt his eyes starting to tear up to the thought of Danny staying in K'un L'un then he wiped his eyes
Peter:(he can't just stay in K'un L'un can he? He wouldn't leave the others here...geez I need to stop overthinking things, I know he wouldn't leave us like that...I'm just overreacting...but why do I feel anxious that he will...he's going to leave in a year so why am I being nervous...?)*he thought to himself not acknowledging of someone quietly walking in the room, his eyes then widened as he heard someone quietly call his name then he quickly sat up and turned on the lamp from his nightstand and locked eyes with Danny who was wearing sweats and a long sleeved shirt and wet hair as he just showered. Danny then blinked breaking eye contract as he lightly blushed and he forms a wide smile towards him that made Peter to blush*
Danny:Hey love, did I wake you?*he asked as Peter stared at him in the thought of his cute smile then he blinked returning back to normal then he looks away*
Peter:No...I was having trouble sleeping anyway...
Danny:Why? Were you worried about me?*he asked with a concerned tone as he sat on the bed, Peter kept blushing as he sees Danny getting closer to him who had his hand out about to touch his face then he turned away*
Peter:Nope! I just been stressing since it's finals weeks this week and we're getting out of school earlier than usual...*Danny responded with silence*So how was the mission? Ava told me that you were stuck at K'un L'un...
Danny:I was, I had to wait for a friend to open a portal for me to come back...
Peter:What was the mission about? Did you have to fight someone?
Danny:I had to deal with a sorcerer, the city is now burned and destroyed...
Peter:You should have stayed then, I wouldn't have mind
Danny:It's fine...K'un L'un will be back to normal in a few weeks...I got worried about you and came back home
Peter:*he looks at Danny as he spoke then he looks away with his leg up as he rested his elbow on his knee*(so he came back because of me? I feel a bit guilty...)*Danny looks at him noticing his sad expression, he then laid his back on the bed and looks up to Peter as he moved his bangs from his eyes, Peter's cheeks turns red as he gazes at Danny's green eyes and his bright smile*
Danny:Why are you sad sweetie? Is it because you don't want me to be here?
Peter:N-no...it's just...nothing*he shrugged off as he turns away avoiding eye contract as he was red*
Danny:We kept a promise that we won't keep secrets from each other, what's wrong?*he asked in a sad and worried tone as he tugs on his green sweater that Peter was wearing from his elbow*
Peter:I just...didn't want to be the reason for causing you problems...
Danny:Hm?
Peter:The thing with Emma...it was my fault wasn't it? For you and her getting in a fight and keeping me a secret...
Danny:Who said it was your fault?
Peter:N-no one, it just sounds like it's my fault...
Danny:My thing with Emma isn't your fault at all, it was the traffic's fault for me being late, and me snapping at Emma was mine...what made you think it was your fault?*he asked as he looks up to Peter who just seems to avoid his gaze*
Peter:Don't you think she'll find out about us...? She already seen me at your office and giving off some vibes to her about our relationship...
Danny:She won't know...
Peter:But isn't she your childhood friend? It's wrong to keep it a secret from her...
Danny:Then I'll tell her the truth
Peter:No no...you two will get in a fight because of me...
Danny:Okay I won't tell her...we'll tell her when we're ready
Peter:Are you sure?
Danny:*he nodded with a small smile*I promise, you can trust me sweetie*Peter turns red again after his blush before just began to fade*
Peter:W-what happened to calling me 'love'?
Danny:Do you prefer me to call you 'love'? I can call you that if you want
Peter:N-no it's fine! I just gotten used to you calling me 'love' that's all...*he spoke shyly as he turns away embarrassed, Danny forms a smile as he stares at Peter's blue eyes, Peter then turns back to him in realization*Oh right I forgot, who did you fought in K'un L'un?*he asked curiously, Danny blinked*
Danny:It was just an evil sorcerer that I fought before...*he spoke as he sat back up and he moved his body comfortably on Peter's bed sitting beside him*His name was Khan and he was a god that people of K'un L'un worshiped, he wanted Ava's amulet and kept us in his control but we had some help to get out of it...
Peter:So you guys had took him down and he's banished from the city? Or is he locked up?
Danny:K'un L'un doesn't lock up people like Khan...that banish them as a warning but if that doesn't work then we only have a third option...we have to kill them
Peter:K-kill? You didn't...do it right?*he spoke with a tone of worry and a white face in slight fear*
Danny:I didn't...but my brother had forced me to do it
Peter:Your brother? Is it your evil brother who hates me?
Danny:No my other brother...he's a bit like Scorpion but he's more demanding, he wants me to live up the mantel of the Iron Fist and be an Immortal Weapon for the city, so I shouldn't hesitate to end a life...
Peter:He sounds a bit worse than Scorpion...he haven't tried to kill you a couple times right?
Danny:No...they both are good people if you get to know them some more, but they're easily bad tempered
Peter:I don't see myself getting along with Scorpion...he nearly killed us
Danny:Well he's been through a lot...he's involved with the situation with Khan, we bumped into each other at K'un L'un and helped us defeat him
Peter:Why? Was he the ninja who broke into my room the other night?*Danny responded with a nod then he opened his mouth to talk*
Danny:When we were young Scorpion had sacrificed himself to Khan for his sick mom to get better, his dad died in an battle with past enemies before he was born. Before Khan had successfully killed him me and my brother barged in and rescued him from Khan, then the lord of K'un L'un found out about Khan's worship about blood and sacrifice for him to get more power so he banished him, he had sworn revenge on me ever since
Peter:Was that before you got your fist?
Danny:Yes, we were possibly nine or ten years old when that happened...
Peter:How did you end things with Scorpion?
Danny:We decided to go our different paths...*the room became silent then Danny laid on Peter's bed and moves Peter's blanket over his body getting comfortable as Peter blushes*Can I sleep here tonight?
Peter:Y-you have your own bed...
Danny:Your bed's softer...
Peter:Then get a new mattress
Danny:I don't like sleeping alone...*he spoke sounding like a complaint as he looks at Peter who looked frustrated but still had blush on his cheeks*
Peter:You have your own bed Danny, go to your room, you're getting my pillow wet...
Danny:Can't I sleep with my boyfriend tonight?*he whined as he quickly wrapped his arms around Peter's waist hugging it making Peter turn red*Why are you trying to kick me out?
Peter:S-stop acting like a kid and go to your room...*Danny only hugged his waist tighter still refusing to leave the room, Peter then let out a small sigh*Fine...just sleep for tonight*Danny then forms a bright smile up to Peter, he froze to his smile as Danny laid on the bed as he had the blanket over his body. Peter then turns away and had turned the lamp off, he laid back on bed and turns red as he notices Danny staring at him*W-what is it?
Danny:Nothing...you just look pretty...
Peter:*he turns red up to his ears that wasn't noticeable thanks to the lights being turned off in the room, he then quickly turned his body around as Danny was facing his back, he quickly covered his face with his hands in embarrassment*
Danny:What's wrong love?
Peter:N-nothing! Just...go to sleep before I lock you in your room...
Danny:Okay love...*he forms a warm smile then he moved closer to Peter and wraps his arm over Peter's waist spooning him. He then closed his eyes starting to peacefully sleep as Peter was red*
Peter felt his heart beating to his body contact with Danny. He laid silent unable to sleep, it was a few minutes of Peter being awake then he had turned his body facing Danny as he felt uncomfortable in his previous position. He then came face to face to Danny's sleeping expression, he stared at Danny's face as he still felt his heart skip two beats
Peter:(how come he still looks good looking even when he's asleep?)*he asked to himself as he places his hand on Danny's cheek without realizing, he stared at his sleeping face then he turns his head down as he blushes*(god he's so handsome...I feel like I'm committing a crime just by being with him)*he faces Danny's face again then he moved closer to him and hugs him with his face on Danny's neck, he then closes his eyes as he felt his heart starting to beat slowly. Peter then fallen asleep peacefully in Danny's embrace*
