Stark had said he would have the car ready at a certain time. Bruce discreetly entered the Stark building and went to check in his car. He was going to drive out as Bruce Wayne.

He would have to come back, as Batman. Well, actually he would just have to change since his suitcase had a secret compartment.

Bruce walked into a seemingly empty car shop. Nobody insight and Stark was nowhere to be found. Bruce sighed heavily.

Stark was never on time. Besides that he wasn't even sure if Stark had finished the car!

Bruce walked around to the side of the car. It looked shinier than usual. What kind of modifications did Stark implement?

Suddenly a creeper shot out from under the car. An enthusiastic teenager jumped up off from it but froze when he saw Bruce.

*Creeper: wheel thing mechanics use to work under cars

"Who are you?!" The boy demanded with glaring blue eyes. It reminded Bruce of Damiens glare.

Bruce hadn't thought up a good excuse because he hadn't expected anybody but Stark.

"I'm-"

"He sponsors Batman, like I do" Stark interrupted saving Bruce.

Danny's face lit up.

"Hey Stark! You wanna see the mods?!" Danny asked.

"Yeah actually! Show me what you got kid"

Danny ignored the kid part. He was sixteen, besides that he was mentally thirty.

Danny glanced warily at Bruce but continued to explain what he had done.

Bruce seemed intrigued, but not about the car.

"How old are you?" Bruce asked. Danny scowled at the question.

"He's seventeen and our resident genius" Stark said ruffling Danny's hair.

"Stop it" Danny said as he fixed his hair. Both he and Stark knew Danny enjoyed being teased.

"How did he come to work for you?" Bruce asked.

Having a smart engineer in the young justice league wouldn't be a bad idea.

However, he wasn't even close to accepting an idea like that yet.

"Just waltzed right in here one day and applied for an interview" Stark said.

"I remember passing that interview with flying colors" Danny said.

"Impressed me for sure" Stark said.

Bruce peered at the car.

"These modifications were done by you alone?"

Danny seemed offended by the assumption.

"Yes" he said testily.

Bruce pressed a button and the car disappeared becoming a blurry spot that blended into the background.

"It does other things" Danny said, "the old circuit board and electric chip that made the car what it is we're old"

He explained.

"So I stalled some ones that I made. They are unhackable, even for me. Your new circuit board can't be damaged by anything lesser in danger than a bomb." Danny said.

"And the outside is armored, like before, but more reinforced."

Bruce nodded.

"This is good work..."
