Author Notes: Hello Fanfiction. I'm back. I know some of you will be happy to see me, but unhappy that this isn't an Omni Evolution update. Sorry. I have been working on some ideas and noticed that I have all these stories that just need some editing before they can be posted. So I'm decided to post what I have written. This is one of them. Also, I am so excited. This is my first Danny Phantom crossover post. I love that series. So this is going to be be a crossover between Young Justice and Danny Phantom, but it is going to have elements from throughout the DC universes. I'm going to change some things and some character's roles. Also, we might be seeing some characters with their genders flipped. Nothing definite yet. On the DC side, it is a little bit more like the Justice League 2001 series. Also I might be changing the original league members to that version and as I see it, this doesn't really matter right now if I confirm it or not. Plus I haven't decided yet. I am confirming that I'm adding some members to the Justice League. So if I say so and so is a member, don't be like he isn't in the league. On the Danny Phantom side: This starts after The Ultimate Enemy episode. But these episodes (Beauty Marked, Infinite Realms, The Fright Before Christmas, and Boxed Up Fury) happen before The Ultimate Enemy episode. Leave reviews and comments, I love reading them, but please keep you criticisms constructive. Hateful stuff will be most likely ignored . . . . for the most part.

Altered Fates Chapter 1: Chance Meeting

Totally exhausted and with thermos in hand, Danny Fenton stood over the worst enemy he had ever faced . . . . himself.

Dan Phantom smirked up at his younger self from his defeated position. He was half covered by rubble. His flaming hair, once full and wicked looking, was now almost completely put out. Only a few wisps remained, making him bald. It wasn't a very flattering look. "You may have defeated me yet I've still won." His smile didn't leave his face even as Danny raised the thermos and started to capture him. In fact, he started to laugh. "I may be too weak to escape, but you are powerless to save them." The last word was stretched out before being cut off by Danny slamming the cap on the thermos.

Not wasting anytime, Danny frantically turned and ran towards the Nasty Burger where those most important in his life were tied to a boiler about to explode. Danny called on his ghostly half and the white ring appeared around his waist, but it quickly fizzled out. "NO!" He hadn't really been paying attention to what his future evil self was saying, being more focused on finishing the battle, but now the words came back, ringing in his mind. "I can't go ghost." He kept running even as he realized he wouldn't make it in time. The need to get to them was even greater now. "If I can just make it to them . . ." He didn't know exactly what he would or could do. A part of him wanted to struggle against their bonds even if he knew he couldn't break them as a human. A little voice in the back of Danny's mind told him that what he really wanted was to die along side his family so he wouldn't be left all alone.

Before he could make it to them, Danny's clumsiness decided to make itself known. A rock caught his foot and the frantic teen fell face first to the ground. Getting up to his hands and knees, Danny looked at the six victims about to die.

Time slowed down as Danny looked into each of their eyes. They all looked resigned to their fates, but they didn't blame Danny. No, they knew he tried his best to save them.

Lancer was awed. He never expected that one of his students was Phantom. "It explains so much about Daniel's behavior."

Tucker had a sad smile on his face. "I don't blame you dude." He hoped that his thoughts were conveyed through the look on his face.

Watching the fight between Danny and Dan made his parents realize that all this time Phantom had been a good guy.

Jack felt a mixture of shock and pride. "My son has superpower and uses them to fight ghosts!" If he wasn't gagged, Jack would have shouted in excitement. He wished he could have at least told his boy how proud he was.

Maddie was crushed. Tears were running down her face."I've been hunting my own son all this time." She was sad, but also proud. Her son was a hero.

Jazz had a worried look on her face. Only she wasn't worried about herself. She knew she was about to die and nothing could stop that. No, she was being her overprotective self, worrying about her little brother Danny. "He is going to be devastated by this and I don't know if he will be able to recover." A tear ran down her face. "Please little brother, have the strength to survive."

Sam had a sad, but loving look on her face as a few tears left her eyes. "I'll never get a chance to tell Danny how much I love him."

Danny spent the longest time looking into Sam's eyes.

As Danny reached out to them with one hand, time sped up. In the blink of an eye, the boiler exploded. The power of the blast sent him flying back several feet. When he landed on the ground, Danny continued to roll for a short distance before stopping. Slowly he got to his knees and looked towards the destroyed Nasty Burger. A look of horror came to his face.

Tears ran down his face as his eyes widened. He felt like his mind was breaking. His hands grabbed the sides of his head as if he was attempting keep his sanity intact. Even though he wanted to, he couldn't close his eyes.

Spread out between him and the destroyed building were the charred remains of his loved ones. There were pieces of them scattered around. Some of the pieces were still flaming.

The worst part was that Sam's severed head had landed right in front of him. The thing was practically sitting in his lap. The left side of her face was charred. The eye on that side was gone, leaving an empty bleeding hole. Her hair was burnt so much that only short crusty black chunks remained.

It was too much for Danny and he was finally able to shut his eyes. He then started screaming. "NNNNNNNOOOOOOO!" It wasn't an normal scream or his Ghostly Wail. No, this was a scream of someone's mind reaching its breaking point and finally snapping.

Throwing his eyes open and shooting upward, Danny awoke from his nightmare. He was breathing hard, sweating, and tears were running down his cheeks. It had been about four months since the Nasty-Burger Explosion. Since then Danny was experiencing frequent nightmares, forcing him to relive the accident. The horrible visions would plague him every night. They were so strong and vivid that Danny swore he could still smell burning flesh when he awoke. It was as smell he would never forget. "I think I will never be able to sleep peacefully again. . . . Not that I deserve a peaceful night after failing them so badly. . . . I'm just a monster."

Danny looked around at his surroundings. He was sitting in a dead end back alleyway. There was trash all around the place. Danny was actually leaning against a dumpster. On his other side was a wooden crate. He was blocked from view so no one could see him from the street. He was wearing a black cloak that was full of holes and was ragged at the ends, but still completely covered him. He was surrounded by shadows and his cloak helped him to be swallowed by the darkness.

Danny had started wearing the cloak when he ran away from everything. He wanted to hid himself from the world. It felt like people could tell how much of an abomination of life and death he was just by looking at him. The cloak helped to shield him from that feeling.

When he had first left Amity Park, Danny was in such a hurry to get away that he had just picked a direction and flew away. So in the end, Danny didn't even know what city he was, but it didn't really matter to him. Since he had found this place, Danny hadn't done much of anything. All he really did was wallow in his misery as he slowly wasted away.

Feeling hunger pain, Danny placed a hand on his stomach. He didn't remember the last time he had anything to eat. If he wasn't half ghost, he surely would have been died of starvation by now. "Not like I deserve food. . ." His voice was barely above a whisper, but his sadness was clear. "They'll never get to eat again." He felt a throb of emotional pain. "I should just stay here and waste away . . . . Hopefully I will get to see them again, but knowing my luck and what I've done, I won't." Bringing his knees to his chest, Danny wrapped his arms around it and brought his forehead down to rest on his knees. He tried to hold it in, but he couldn't and started to sob. "I'll never see them again and it is all my fault."

==================================Earlier==================================

Wonder Woman (Diana Prince) was flying home to her place of residence in Washington, DC. Bed was her destination and when she got there, the plan was to collapse into it. Wonder Woman was exhausted since she had a battle against Giganta, Cheetah, Blue Snowman, and Doctor Poison. They had formed some sort of revenge squad to get even with Wonder Woman for their past defeats. It was an extremely hard fight, she had the bruises and cuts to prove it. At one point she had almost called for backup from the Justice League, but she had been able to defeat them by herself in the end.

Wonder Woman was almost home when she heard a pained scream and her bed was instantly forgotten. Stopping in mid-air, she looked around to see if the source was in direct view. Not seeing an obvious origin, Wonder Woman decided to head over to where she thought it was coming from.

Landing on a rooftop, Wonder Woman looked over the edge and down into the alleyway below. The area was shrouded in darkness, but she spent enough time with Batman that she learned to extinguish things in the dark. So it wasn't long before she saw someone in a cloak sitting on the ground.

Before she could jump down to see if the figure was alright, Wonder Woman heard them speak.

"Not like I deserve food. . . They'll never get to eat again." The amount of the emotional pain in his voice made Wonder Woman freeze. The only reason she could only hear him was because of her advanced hearing. By the sound of his voice, she strongly suspected that the figure was a young male. "I should just stay here and waste away . . . . Hopefully I will get to see them again, but knowing my luck and what I've done, I won't." She felt a tear come to her eye as she watched the child curl up and start sobbing. It tore her up inside to hear a person sound so longingly for death. She knew from the way that he spoke of "them" that they were dead, he cared deeply for them, and he felt guilty about something. . . . . most likely their deaths.

Wonder Woman jumped over the side of the roof and floated down to the ground. She landed a few feet from in front the figure and looked at him. He hadn't moved from his curled up position. "Young one." She looked around the alleyway before her eyes came back to him and saw that he was looking up at her. His hood blocked his face from her view. "How long have you been in this alleyway?"

Silence swallowed the area as Wonder Woman got no reply from the cloaked individual. They just starred at each other. She could feel his eyes on her, but not in a perverse way. It was more like he was assessing her, seeing if she was a threat or not. She was accustomed to villains looking at her like that, but to be on the receiving end from a child, was a bit upsetting.

Wonder Woman was about to speak again, when a rumbling sound broke the silence. She saw the figure move an arm underneath the cloak and clutch his stomach as he released a small pained grown.

"When was the last time you ate?" asked Wonder Woman. Her tone was border-lining maternal reproach. She didn't get a verbal response, but he broke eye contact and looked away. It was like he was ashamed. His actions spoke enough for him. "It has been far too long than." The conviction in her voice caused him to look back at her. "Let us go get . . ." She took a step towards him as she offered a hand to help him up. To her shock, he was standing so quick that she didn't even see him get up. He pressed himself against the wall and looked like he was preparing to attack or to be attacked. " . . some food," she finished in a surprised tone.

Taking several feet back, Wonder Woman held up her hands in peace. "I'm sorry. On my honor as Princess of the Amazons, I promise I won't hurt you."

At the word promise, he dropped his stance and stared at Wonder Woman. "Y-you pr-romise?" His voice was barely a whisper, sounding so nervous and desperate.

Without hesitating, Wonder Woman said "Yes I do." She put as much conviction as she could into her words. When she saw him calm down significantly, she asked "What is your name?"

For the next few moments, Danny didn't say anything. They fell back into silence as Wonder Woman waited for his answer.

Realizing something, Wonder Woman said "Excuse me for being so rude. Before receiving your name, I should have given you mine first." She made a gestured at herself. "I am Wonder Woman."

Hesitatingly, the cloaked figure said "D-danny."

"Well Danny," Wonder Woman said. "You wait here. I'm going to go get some food." She walked to the sidewalk. She then stopped and looked back towards Danny. "I would really appreciate it if you were still here when I got back." Not waiting for an answer, Wonder Woman disappeared around the corner.

Danny just stood there watching the spot Wonder Woman had disappeared. He couldn't believe Wonder Woman had show up in the alleyway with him. "THE Wonder Woman was right here . . .." Danny couldn't help feeling a bit of excitement well up from deep inside himself. It was a feeling that was practically forgotten for him. "She is one of my favorite heroes. One of my personal heroes that helped me decide to be a hero." He then felt a huge wave of depression wash over him, causing him to fall to his knees. Tears started to fall from his eyes. "She would be so disappointed in me for how weak I am. I am no hero, just a failure."

Covering his face, the child who had lost so much, started to sob.

=============================With Wonder Woman=============================

Memorizing the exact location of the alleyway, Wonder Woman was surprised to realize that her residence was only a block and a half away. "That means we aren't that far from the Hall of Justice." She then headed for the closest place she could acquire food.

Finding a simple dinner, the kind that you could actually see the cook preparing your food, Wonder Woman walked in. Instantly every head in the place turned in her direction. They all couldn't help staring at the bruised and cut-up super-heroine. It looked like she had just gotten out of a brawl. She causally walked up to the counter as if nothing was wrong or out of place. Once at the counter, Kelly (a small woman with blond hair) asked "C-can I help-p you?" She was visibly nervous speaking to the super woman.

"Yes," Wonder Woman said. "I would like a meal to go."

At first Kelly was at a lost for words, but at seeing that the amazon only wanted some food, she gained some confidence. "Ah . . . What exactly would you like?"

"Danny sounded like a teen I believe," Wonder Woman thought. "I require something that a teenage male would like."

Kelly gave Wonder Woman a look. She couldn't help wondering what the adult heroine was doing with a teenage male. A few thoughts went through her head before she simply shrugged, deciding it wasn't really any of her business. "I'll get you a burger and fries. That's what my," she gave a little laugh, "teenage male likes." She wrote the order down and handed it off to the chief. Turning back to the Amazon, she said "That will be $9.42."

It was at that moment that Wonder Woman realized that she didn't have any money on her.

Before the Amazon could think of what to do, the cook (a large balding man with a pot belly) stopped working and turned around. "Don't worry about the money. It's on the house." He turned back to the stove and continued cooking.

"Thank you kind culinary artist for.. . . ." Wonder Woman said.

The rest of what she was going to say was cut off by the cook. "Wo wo wo." He turned around and faced the Amazon. "I'm no culinary artist and the name's Bob." There was amusement in voice. "I'm just a simple cook and I don't mind giving you a meal." His voice turned serious. "It is the least I can do for all you've done. If it wasn't for the Justice League, I would have lost everything I care about." A slightly dark look passed through his eyes as he remembered the past. After a moment, a smile returned to face as he spoke again in an amused voice. "So come back anytime for a meal and that goes for rest of the League." He then resumed cooking. "It will do wonders for business if more of the Justice League came to my dinner. The people will rush here just to eat where their favorite heroes have."

"I still thank you, Bob," Wonder Woman said. She then thought of Danny. "And I believe I will be making use of your offer in the near future."

"Just make sure you tell your justice friends," Bob said. "If any of them show up, their fans will make up for what it will cost to feed them. I'll be rolling in the money." He fought the urge to rub his hands and laugh.

"I will," the Amazon princess replied.

The diner fell back into its usual order. . . . with the exception of Wonder Woman being there. None of the dinners were talking to her. It wasn't because they feared her. No, they were intimidated by her. What exactly do you say to an amazonian princess.

After a small amount of time, Bob finished cooking and Wonder Woman left with a plastic bag contain the meal.

It didn't take her long to return to the alleyway that Danny was in. Wonder Woman saw that Danny was sitting in the exact same spot that she had found him in. Walking up to him, she placed the bag on the ground in front of him and then sat down on the crate.

"It is a burger and fries," Wonder Woman said when she saw he was just looking at it. "It would greatly please me if you ate it."

When the smell from the food got to his nose, Danny felt his mouth water and his stomach growled in want. But he didn't grab the burger and gobble it down as much as he wanted to. The feeling of unworthiness kept him from eating. His mind just kept on telling him that his loved ones would never get to eat again so why should an abomination of science like himself get to.

Seeing him not eating even when she knew he was starving, Wonder Woman said "Everyone deserves to eat, no matter what."

"B-but . . ." Danny said in a quiet voice.

The Amazon princess cut him off before he could protest any further. "No one should go hungry especially one who is still growing, so eat."

It didn't take long for Danny's hunger and Wonder Woman's reassurance to break down his hesitation. Danny grabbed the bag and tore it apart until he got to the food. The food didn't stand a chance and was quickly devoured.

The whole process wasn't pretty and was a bit sad to watch, but Wonder Woman was happy to see him eat. When he was done eating, she asked in a reassuring tone "Danny, why are you living here?"

Danny said nothing as he looked away in remorse. How could he reveal his greatest shames? That he caused the death of all those that cared for him. That there was a crazy fruit-loop and a part of the government after him so he had to go into hiding. That he would become the worst monster that the earth has ever seen. That to protect everyone, he should just kill himself.

"No," Danny thought as he shook his head. "I can't tell her."

"Will you come with me so I can find you someplace more appropriate to live?," Wonder Woman asked.

Again, Danny shook his head. "If I did that then I'll be found."

"Why not?," Wonder Woman asked, even though she didn't think she would get an answer.

And she was right. Danny didn't make a sound and just starred at the ground.

Figuring that this was as much progress that she was going to make, Wonder Woman stood up. "Danny, I will be back tomorrow to see you." She walk to the opening of the alley and turned back. "Good night Danny." The Amazon didn't want to just leave him there, but she knew that forcing him to come would cause more problems than help. So she left him with the hope that he would still be there when she came back.

Danny couldn't help the small smile that came to his face. "Wonder Woman just got me food and she is going to be back. . . . Maybe . . . . Maybe she . . could help me. . . . . . but I still don't think I deserve it."

=================================Time Skip=================================

Wonder Woman did return the next day. And then every day until a week had passed.

Each day fell into a pattern for the two.

Wonder Woman would go to Bob's dinner. She would get two meals and bring them to Danny. Once there, they would eat together. It took a couple of days, but she no longer had to convince Danny to eat. During her time there, Wonder Woman would talk to Danny in the hopes of learning more about him. Most of the time Danny didn't talk, but Wonder Woman would still talk to him. She learned that he would pay complete attention to her when she told him stories of her adventures. He would even be more willing to talk and ask questions after her stories. But he didn't reveal much about himself or show her his face. The last part started to make the amazon worry that Danny was horribly disfigured.

But that wasn't the case. Danny just wasn't stupid and knew she could find out his past with just a little information or even a look at his face.

Today found the two sitting on the ground next to each other. Wonder Woman had just finished telling him about the time the Justice League was formed, when Danny asked "So the public didn't except you when you first appeared? Even though you were there to help?"

"Just like me when I made my appearance as Phantom," Danny thought.

His voice held so much emotion that Wonder Woman knew the question had a deeper meaning to the child. She just didn't know how or why. "Yes. I remember this one time I was visiting the president for the first time." She was happy to have Danny talk. It was so much better than the times he would be silent. "I encountered a group of people protesting me being there. I didn't know what their problem was with me at the time."

"W-what did you do?," Danny asked. "Maybe I could have done the same thing to win over the people of Amity Park."

"I confronted the leader of the protest," Wonder Woman said. An angry look came to her face. "He said I dressed like a whore and was a bad influence." The anger left her. "I knew that wasn't the real reason." She held up her lasso. "So I used my Lasso of Truth on him and asked again." She couldn't help the smile that came to her face. "It forced him to tell the truth and he said that he cross-dressed in a Wonder Woman outfit and it made him feel powerful. I released him and laughed because honestly, my outfit makes me feel powerful too."

"My jumpsuit makes me kinda feel that way," the teen thought as a smile came to his face.

Danny couldn't help laughing and Wonder Woman joined him.

"I can't use that to help Phantom, but it is still funny," thought Danny as he giggled.

The two stopped laughing and silence fell upon them. It wasn't awkward, but it allowed Danny to think. He couldn't help feeling better about things. In fact, Danny was thinking of finally answering a lot of her questions pertaining to who he was and telling her about him being Phantom. "No. It is to soon to tell her that secret. . . . but maybe I can tell her about my loved ones and what happened." A tear came to his eye. "Jazz always told me not to bottle up things and to talk about my problems." A few more tears escaped his eyes thinking about his big sister.

"Wonder Woman," Danny said in a serious tone.

"Yes," replied the amazon. She had a feeling that whatever he was going to say, it was going to be something important.

"I want to tell you about why I am living here," Danny said. He faced away from her.

Wonder Woman had to stop herself from shouting in joy. "He's finally opening up." She sat up straight and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Danny, you can tell me anything you want. I won't judge you."

"I guess I should start by . . . . .," Danny said.

"Batman to Wonder Woman. You are needed at the Hall of Justice for a mission," the Amazon heard the communicator in her ear go off.

"NO. Not now," Wonder Woman mentally screamed, but she knew that she had to take the call. Holding up her hand to stop Danny from speaking, she said "Danny, I'm sorry." There was an extremely apologetic look on her face. She knew that the child must have felt hurt to finally open up to her, only to be shot down. "This might even cause him to close up again," she thought sadly. "I have to go to the Hall of Justice. They need me for a mission." She stood up. "I'll be back as soon as I can and then you can tell me anything you want."

Danny didn't reply. He knew personally about responsibility and the hard sacrifices it required sometimes, like his grades and social life. He also knew he shouldn't feel bad that Wonder Woman was leaving when he finally felt comfortable enough to talk about his problems.

But the truth was that he did.

Wonder Woman gave one more regretful apology before saying good bye and flying away. The whole way to the hall, she silently swore in her head. "This mission had better be important." It turned out that a few villains were about to gain an all new fear of an angry Amazonian Princess.

Back in the alleyway, Danny just watched her go. He didn't know if he would be up to telling her again.

=============================Several Hours Later=============================

After the mission, Wonder Woman immediately headed back to Danny's alleyway. "I hope he still feels like talking." She entered the alley and looked to the spot that Danny usually sat in, but she didn't see him. "Did he leave?" She was suddenly afraid. "Maybe his feeling were hurt enough that he decided to leave." This worried her. If he had left, she didn't know if she would be able to find him again. Hoping to find some clue to help her find him, the Amazon looked around as she walked deeper into the alleyway. The farther she went the darker it became.

When she got closer to the end of the alley, Wonder Woman was greeted with a sight that made her happy, relieved, and sad. "Well I guess I don't have to look for him after all."

Laying on a pile of rags and surrounded by bags of trash was Danny. From his breathing, Wonder Woman knew that he was asleep.

Wonder Woman was a bit surprised. It wasn't that late, only around 8pm, and from what she heard of teenagers from the other heroes, they tended to stay up really late. "But Danny isn't an usual teenager, is he."

She stood there, watching him for a few moments. She felt like picking the child up and moving him somewhere more appropriate. Hell, she wanted to take him to her apartment, but she didn't know him well enough to expose her secret identity to him. "But that isn't the real reason. He would probably freak out and run away if he woke up somewhere else. He could even end up hurting himself."

Seeing as she didn't want to just leave and let Danny think she hadn't come back, Wonder Woman decided to sit down on the ground and wait. She was a bit tired, but she just couldn't leave things this way. She thought about waking him, but she wouldn't have to.

It started off with a small whimper. Danny then started to toss and turn. His whimpers grew into sobs and it looked like he was struggling with something. Wonder Woman started to move to wake him, but stopped when he started to speak in his sleep. She decided to wait a moment to see what he said. "He might reveal something important that would let me help him." Though she felt bad and like she was violating his privacy, the amazon just sat there. Reasoning with her guilty consciousness, Wonder Woman thought "It is to help him."

"Jazz . . Mom . . . Dad . . Tucker . . . Sam," Danny whimpered in his sleep. His voice had a deep tone of longing. "Explosion . . . . .Your deaths . . . . My fault." The pain in his voice was almost tangible. Whatever his dream was, it was clearly torturing Danny to his very soul.

That was enough of his suffering that Wonder Woman would allow. She moved forward, placed a hand on his shoulder and gave him a small shake as she said "Danny. Wake up."

The moment she touched him and spoke, Danny shot up. His hood fell back and Wonder Woman gasped. His eyes were a surprisingly baby blue and his hair was raven black. In all honesty, he could have pass as a relative of her's or even her son. But that wasn't what shocked her. No, the malnutrition and rings around his eyes surprised and upset her. It was clear that the simple meals they shared was all he was eating and was clearly not enough for him.

Seeing him staring at her with tears running down his eyes, Wonder Woman pulled the child onto her lap and hugged him. He was quick to return the hug. She then rubbed his back as he sobbed into her shoulder. "Every thing is going to be alright."

Hearing her, Danny pushed away from her just enough to look her in the face. His sobs slowed just enough so that he could speak. "No. You're wrong. Nothing will ever be right again." Danny then completely broke down.

They sat there for a while with the amazon comforting the teenager. Eventually his sobs decreased until he stopped. Wonder Woman felt him slowly release his hug and go limp in her arms. Carefully maneuvering him, she looked at his face and saw that he was asleep again. Since she had the chance, the Amazon took the time to look at his face. This was the first time she had seen his face since she met him. Now that she really was looking, he was malnourished, but not to the point he was a bag of bones. Instead, Danny looked like he just didn't get enough to eat.

Danny started to whimper again so Wonder Woman started to rock him as she rubbed his back. "Shush. Everything is going to be okay . . I'll make sure of it."

Having thought it over, Wonder Woman reached a decide. "No more waiting for him to open up again. He gave me enough info to start an investigation. Bruce can help with that. And Dinah can help with his issues. I don't care if he freaks out or not, Danny is no longer going to be living here." She looked around the hallway in disgust. "He will be staying with me." She stood up with Danny held in her arms and took to the air.

It did not take long to get to her apartment building. She landed on the roof and headed straight for a large air-conditioner. She, with a little difficultly since Danny was in her arms, opened a penal on the site of the unit. Inside was a keyboard. She pressed a few keys before closing the panel. After a moment, an entrance way opened up and she stepped inside what looked like an elevator. The doors closed behind her and they descended down.

The entrance's disguised was so good that you could be standing in front of it and not know it was there. That is unless you knew it existed. It was a house warming present from Batman. He didn't want Wonder Woman to have to explain why a super-heroine was in the building. At the moment, she was exponentially thankful since she wouldn't have to explain why she had an unconscious teen in her arms.

The elevator stopped and the doors opened again. This time, Diana's apartment was on the other side. Entering her apartment, Wonder Woman headed to her guest room and placed Danny on the bed. She paused for a moment to make sure he was okay before leaving the room. She headed to her room and changed into a t-shirt and sweatpants. She then grabbed her phone. Going to her contacts, Wonder Woman scrolled through them until she got to the name Bruce Wayne. Sure she could have use her league communicator, but this wasn't really a Justice League situation. It had become too personal.

Making the call, she only had to wait one ring before Bruce picked up.

"Hello Diana," Bruce said. "It is a little late to be making a social call."

"Not for you." Diana gave a small chuckle. Silence was her reply. Sighing, Diana said "Bruce, I really need you to investigate something for me."

Hearing the importance of the matter in her voice, Bruce said "Give me the details and I will see what turns up."

"It is a bit involved, so I'll give you the short version," Diana said. She released a small sigh at how complicated things were. "I found a teenager name Danny living in an alleyway and need to know more about him." She left out the part about bringing Danny to her apartment. She knew for a fact that he would not be happy about it and that was putting it mildly. "The current situation means I will probably have to tell Danny about me being Diana." Her thoughts were broken by Bruce's voice.

"Diana, the name Danny isn't a lot to go on," Bruce said in a flat tone. "I won't be able get anything valuable."

"I did hear him say useful things in his sleep," Diana said. She didn't give Bruce a chance to ask why she was watching Danny while he was sleeping. "Dad, Mom, Sam,Tucker, Jazz. Then something about an explosion and their deaths. . . . . . ."

Knowing the pain of loss, Bruce instantly felt sympathy for the kid.

The line fell silent for a bit and Bruce knew there was more. "What else?" A gut feeling told him that he wouldn't like the answer.

After a few more moments of silence, Diana said in a solemn voice "He blames himself for their deaths."

Now that really got to Bruce. He had blamed himself for his parents deaths when he was young. A very small part of him still did. That wound had healed, kind of, but had turned into a scar that would never truly be gone. "You should inform . . ."

Cutting Bruce off, Diana said "I already plan on contacting Dinah. . . . Danny is going to need her help."

"Good. I will get back to you when I have more information." With that said, Bruce hung up.

Which annoyed Diana. Looking at her phone, she said "I hate when he just hangs up. ." She placed the phone on her nightstand. "He could at least say good bye." She then went to her bed and climbed in. Contacting Dinah would happen tomorrow morning. Right now, bed was calling her.

With her eyes closed, Diana kept an ear open. She wanted to be prepared in case Danny had a nightmare or awoke. There was a chance that he would run away when he awoke. She also wanted to be there if he had another nightmare. While she lay there, Diana couldn't help the questions that ran across her mind. "Does Danny have nightmares every time he sleeps? . . . That would explain the bags under his eyes . . . . . Why would he blame himself for his family's death? Will Danny try to run away? Why did I bring him to my apartment?"

Sleep took a while to catch the amazonian princess with all her concerning thoughts.
