Super Sons Fanfic - Daminette: My Story

Chapter 8

Marinette's POV

My eyes slowly opened and within a few seconds they took focus on my surroundings. I sat up and looked around realising I was on a bed in a room unfamiliar to me. I raised a brow and scanned the place. The bed sheets were blue in colour, and there were posters of superman and action figures of the other heroes of the Justice League.

Just then the door opened and Superboy sighed upon seeing me awake. "You're awake. Your bodyguard was getting worried about you. Here, have some water." He placed the glass down on the side table, taking a seat in the chair next to the bed. "Is this..your room?" He nodded. "The medbay was full, we just rescued some teens last night and they are still recovering."

A sharp pain flooded my head as I grabbed it, wincing. Superboy immediately got up and rested his hand on my shoulder. "Hey, what's wrong?" he asked worriedly. Suddenly, flashes of a building, an abandoned one and..Alya was revealed to me in my mind tied down to a chair and gagged, unconscious. I gasped, snapping out of my trance.

"I'll go get Doctor Jace." I grabbed his hand, preventing him from leaving. "No..no, I'm fine. Just...where's Nino a-and Jerry?" He switched the grip, taking my hand, and gently pushing me back down onto the bed. "They're downstairs, I'll bring them up to you. Don't move around so much okay?" I nodded as he left.

Alya... How could I have let this happen!? I had my shield up..I protected everyone from the collapse yet I blacked out. If I had just been awake, been there for her, maybe she wouldn't have been taken. Jerry burst through the door and immediately came up to me. "Net, are you okay?" I sighed and looked at Nino who leaned against the doorframe looking outside.

"Alya..who took her?" I asked. Jerry sat on the edge of the bed taking the glass of water in his hand. "Here, have some," he gestured to me. I sat up and took a sip. "The Villains took her." I frowned looking at Nino. "In exchange for her safe return, they want you in their possession. We have 2 days to decide."

I gripped the bedsheets in my hands after handing my glass back to Jerry. "I would like some time alone if you wouldn't mind." "Net-" "I'll be fine, Jer." With that they both left only for Zatanna to enter and close the door. "Hi Nettie. How are you feeling?" I replied, "I'm..a bit shaken up.."

She gave me a small smile while taking a seat next to me on the chair. "I'm here to..make observations on your powers. I just want to get a clearer view of your powers. If that's alright with you." I nodded and she placed her hand on my head. "Wohs em eht yenruoj fo reh erutpac."

My eyes shot open, a pearl white colour filling them. I saw...everything.

Third person POV

The concert was finally over and the young singer made her way down the stairs with Jerry following behind her. She sighed, "Jerry, call Alya and Nino and let them know I'm on my way over." Jerry nodded and pulled out his phone. While he spoke to the girl on the other side, Nettie excused herself to get some fresh air while she drank some water.

She was on the East side of the stage sipping on her water while scrolling through the views from her now finished concert that was streaming live. She smiled seeing the comments of compliments. Just then, she heard a small ruffling sound which caused her to stand up straight.

She scanned her surroundings only to see nothing but the bushes and the shadows caused by the night sky. The ruffling noise was heard again and suddenly, something jumped out of the bushes. Nettie immediately jumped into her fighting stance when she raised a brow.

A...cat..? The cat was orange with unique black stripes across its back. His eyes were a brick red colour and she realised he wore a collar. She stooped down and took a closer look when the cat chipped towards her purring against her legs. She cooed at the sight but instantly regretted it.

The cat immediately bit her ankle then scurrying off back into the bushes. Nettie's vision began to blur soon after causing her to fall to her knees. She glanced up, her vision swaying. There standing in front of her was the same in the arms of a boy with a devilish smirk and red eyes, his brows arching.

"She's perfect. Bring her in!" he exclaimed, calling out his associates who were hiding in the shadows. Icicle Junior picked up the girl while the Terror twins secured the perimeter. The witch boy chuckled, snapping his fingers. A portal outlined in red appeared swallowing them, taking them to a completely new place.

Nettie couldn't move and she struggled to keep her eyes open. Her body was heating up and her feet were now numb. "It's amazing how you're still awake even though Teekl bit you. You're supposed to be unconscious or better yet in a coma." The witch boy once again chuckled.

"Hey Klarion, I don't think she was the best choice. She's a Celeb, an influencer, people are going to speculate." Junior commented. Klarion glared at him. "Well too bad. I can make the world forget she ever existed. Now, put her in there. Time to have my fun!"

Junior handed her over to Tommy Terror who dropped her into the tube that was filled with a strange, grey liquid that allowed her to breathe. The cat boy arrived in front of my tube and grinned widely and said something that she couldn't hear. Suddenly her tube began to fill with a red substance.

It was thick, hard to move in. She was immobilised and she couldn't breathe. Then needles injected her with something, on her back and the back of her arms and legs. It was pure chaos. Another figure came into the room as the three minions left. Vandal Savage.

The two were speaking but Nettie couldn't hear anything. The cat boy then turned towards the girl in the tube snapping his fingers causing Zatanna to lose her grip on Nettie's memories.

Zatanna's POV

My hands retracted quickly, feeling sparks from Nettie's mind. She began to pant, clenching her shirt close to her chest, her pupils disoriented. I rested my hand on her shoulder, worried "Hey, hey..Nettie. Can you hear me? Look at me okay." She glanced at me, her eyes filled with fear and anxiety.

Once she was calm, I got up and called her bodyguard to her side and I left. But how? How did my spell get cancelled? Does Klarion know that I was in her mind? Is he spying on us through Nettie? Nightwing stopped me at the foot of the staircase and asked how the session was.

"Well, she remembers her capture now. And she was right, Klarion and Savage are behind it. And I think that he's spying on us through her."
