Ghostly Justice

Chapter 28: Detective Dani and the Case of the Missing Teens Pt. 3

The teens mentally prepared themselves for what they might face. Seeing an opportunity to get some questions answered, Dani turned to Dash. "I have a question for you. In one of my visions I saw you hanging out with some blonde woman until Batman showed up. Do you know why I was shown that, and who was that lady?"

"How much did you see?"

"I saw you and that lady laughing outside then saw Batman watching you from a distance."

"So not much then. For starters that woman is my Aunt Harley and Batman was there because she escaped Arkham to hang out with me." He saw the female halfa about to ask another question and stopped her. "Please leave all questions until the end of the story. Anyway when my aunt went to take cover from the rain I decided to confront the moody bat fursana and ask him why he was stalking us all day."

"You know Batman's not a furry, right?"

"This is my story and I'll call Batman whatever I want. First I questioned him on how long he was going to keep stalking us since it was annoying. He wanted to know how long I knew so I told him. Then he asked how I got up the building so fast and I told him the answer was in my name then proved it. I could tell he wanted to know how I got my powers but I'm not going to make it easy on the supposed 'World's Greatest Detective'. I told him to figure it out himself before meeting back up with Aunt Harley."

"So you have super speed..." Dani turned to the others. "What about you guys? What're your powers?"

Everyone glanced around the small space, not really wanting to be first. Tired of the uncomfortable silence Dash put an arm around his boyfriend. "Why don't you tell her your powers first babe. It's probably the best out of all of us."

"If you could see some of the things I see you wouldn't think that about my powers."

Dash squished the other boys face. "We've talked about this Wes, talking negatively about your powers is just another way of talking bad about yourself."

"I know but you tend to ignore the bad side to these powers." Wes awkwardly cleared his throat. "Let's get this over with. My powers are mostly sight based. I have x-ray vision, heat vision, ectoplasmic vision, etc. Basically any power specializing in eyesight I either use or can learn. The main power I use and am being trained to utilize is parallel viewing and future vision. The Clockwork of this world has been teaching how to control it better. That's all I'm going to say, Mikey you go next."

Mikey sighed nervously. "Do I really have to? It's not really anything special."

"Yes."

"Okay... I can understand any language, I can duplicate any object I've ever come into contact with, and I can tell when someone's lying" Mikey avoided everyone's gaze. "Can someone else please go next?"

Paulina unbuckled herself and stood in the middle of the jet. "I guess I'll go next, my powers really amazing after all!" Her skin started growing patches of fur. She started shrinking in size until there was a calico kitten in her place. "Don't I look adorable?"

Dani couldn't help but coo at the tiny kitten. "Of course! How many animals can you turn into?"

Paulina changed back. "Not sure, I've never counted. I don't even have to use my animal attributes, see!" Her nails turned into glowing green claws. "Your up Star."
