Fenton Tides (DP MLB crossover)

The Not Interrogation -Chapter 10

Danny landed with a light thud on the roof of the building where he was told earlier to meet the young heroes. He only recognized Chat Noir and Ladybug out of the tree standing on the roof, there was another man with them who was wearing all green and had a shell on his head. He assumed whoever he was, was using the turtle miraculous from the look of his suit design. He was much older than the two teens and Danny quickly connected him to being the guardian they were talking about him meeting.

Welp, let's do this thing. "You miss me?" Danny smiled as he walked forward. The three's eyes were glued to him. Ladybug's gaze was more cautious and distrusting as she looked into Riptide's eyes, whereas the guardian's eyes were thoughtful as he looked Danny up and down, his finger on his chin.

Danny was feeling slightly nervous about this whole thing but tried not to show it. He glanced over to Chat who smiled cheesily at Danny his sharp canines showing as he gave the shark two thumbs up. Danny chuckled before returning the warm smile, stepping slightly closer but still keeping at least a 5-foot distance.

Danny bowed his head slightly towards the elder, something he and the other ghosts often did for greeting someone they respected. "The guardian I presume?"

"Riptide, I have heard a couple things about you. But the opinion of someone is better to be known in person." The guardian returned the nod.

"It's better to not assume the intentions of someone the moment you meet them, but you should always be cautious. Which is why I decided to show up, you need to trust me as much as I need to trust you."

The guardian smiled before walking closer towards Riptide with his hands held loosely together behind his back. Danny tried his best not to try and back away, but he was sure he could get out of here at any moment he wanted so he wasn't too worried. The guardian walked around behind Danny circling him with his thoughtful eye. Danny's head followed the man as he walked around.

The silence lasted for what felt like hours, even if it was only about a minute before the man spoke up again. "Where did you get your Miraculous, son?" His voice was steady and collected with a hint of confusion.

Danny paused, his ear twitched as he decided whether or not to tell the man about Clockwork. He had no idea whether or not he should mention the Ancient. He might not even believe him, but then again they were all wearing suits made by magical creatures that grant you superpowers. Danny shrugged. "An old friend gave it to me when I was having a hard time, he thought I needed it."

The man paused raising an eyebrow. "Do you... know how he got it?"

Danny shifted his eyes to the side. "No, I don't. But he has always been cryptic, he probably could have told it to me in exact detail and I wouldn't have realized. But he is a good- person."

"Who is he?" The man asked looking slightly more troubled.

Danny thought for a second before answering. "I don't think I should tell you, at least not yet. I don't know if he wants to be found out. Or if I can trust you with his name yet." Ladybug's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Well if you can't answer that, what are your powers?" She asked.

Danny tilted his head to the side slightly. "Powers?" He paused. "You mean like the enhanced agility thing?"

Chat Noir stepped forward. "You know like your one power, the one that you can use and then you transform back after 5 minutes." Danny still didn't understand. "I have the kwami of destruction and I can use my powers to destroy anything I touch one time. And ladybug has the power of creation and she can use her powers one time to create something that can help us later. What are your kwami's powers?"
