Damian's POV.
Father called me in, of course like his commands I brought Alien along. When we arrived we saw father in an emotional state, I've never seen him like this. Jon went up to Clark and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with Bruce?" Clark replied, "Well his daughter, Ming, she's lost in the tower." That's when I snapped, I didn't know why I did. Clark told us the plan, and we all split up. I went with Jon, while Clark went with father.

Jon's POV.
I don't know who this Ming is, but all I know is that we need to find her. Damian was shouting like crazy, it looked like he cared. He told me to put out my x-ray vision, which I did. But I still couldn't find her, I told Damian that but he wouldn't listen. "Your not looking hard enough Kent! Keep looking!" He would tell me, but this time, he's saying it with tears in his eyes. I couldn't just deny his command, this girl seems really important to Damian, so I must protect her also.

Jon and Damian looked everywhere, they would communicate with their fathers to see if they found anything, which they have not. Then out of no where, Jon saw something flash by. He followed the shadow until it lead to the hall of villains.

Jon's POV.
Wow... Dad never told me about this place. And what is it with the shadow, that was weird. I can see all the villains here! That's so cool! They have Riddler, Killer Croc, everyone!! Even Lex Luther! Wait, there is a Joker statue, and there's a girl over there. Is that her?

Jon stood there and looked at the crying girl. She was next to the Joker statue, sobbing. Jon walked up to her slowly, he doesn't want to trigger her. Ming looked up at Jon, Jon kept staring at Ming. Ming wiped her tears and said, "W-who are you.." Jonathon looked at Ming and walked closer to her, "I am Jonathon Kent, aka Superboy. Please do not run from me." Ming scooted back as the boy kept coming closer, "Please stay away, you are the son of Superman. So you are ten times more dangerous, you are gonna kill me." Jon looked at Ming in confusion, "Silly girl, I won't hurt you. I will just report you back with my dad." Ming looked around for a weapon, anything to keep this boy away from her. But then he pinned her to the wall, she could not escape. "HELP! HELP ME!!! HE IS GOING TO KILL ME!" Jon shushed her and said, "I will not kill you I promise."

Then the door swang open, Damian was on the other side. He rammed into Jon and hugged Ming. "KENT WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING TO HER?!" Jon just stood there, "I wasn't doing anything! She is mistaken me for my father!" Damian looked at Jon in rage, then Clark and Bruce ran in. Bruce went over and hugged both Damian and Ming, while Clark went next to Jon. Jon looked in shock, "B-but I did not do anything to her Dad, she thought I was gonna kill her." Clark put his hand on Jon's shoulder and said, "I think that might be my fault, she's had a traumatic experience for 5 years that has something to do with me." Jon looked at Clark in shock, "Was she with Lex Luthor?!" Clark shook his head, "No, someone worse, Joker." Jon looked at Ming in shock.

Jon's POV.
JOKER?! SHE WAS ABUSED BY JOKER FOR FIVE FREAKING YEARS?! WHAT THE H! I FEEL SO BAD! HOW DO I MAKE IT UP TO HER?! Oh god, no wonder Damian pushed me away. I'm such an idiot, why would I do that to her?! I literally pinned her to the wall, of course she would think I was gonna hurt her!

After Bruce and Damian let Ming go, Jon came in and gave her a hug. Damian snarled and looked away, Clark also came and gave both Jon and Ming a hug. "Dearest Maddison, I do not want you to fear the symbol of the S, no matter what Joker said." Ming started to cry, "I am sorry, it's just... I can't." Jon looked Ming in the eye, "Please, save your strength. For right now you are in a hug of two powerful kryptonians, ones that you can Trust." Ming did not believe in the word, 'trust', but she felt like she can trust these species. Bruce smiled as he saw the small girl get embraced by her fears, he knew that her and Clark would be friends. And maybe her and Jon will be friends also.

Jon smiled at Ming and wiped her tears, which got Damian to growl. Bruce noticed his jealousy and said, "Well we best be going, say your goodbyes." Ming walked up to Clark and gave him a hug, "Goodbye Mr. Kent, or Supey." She said goodbye to Jon, but Jon gave her a big hug that lifted her off the floor. Damian started growling, "Let her go Kent, we need to leave." Jon stocked his tongue out and let Ming go, "Hope we can have sleepovers sometimes!!" Ming smiled back and said, "I hope so too! Goodbye Superboy!"

Bruce, Damian, and Ming walked over to the room where the rest of the League is. As they walked in, Dinah and Vixen already ran to Ming and hugged her tightly. Both of the women had tears in their eyes, they were glad she was safe. J'hn sighed in relief, Barry jumped up and down for the return of her safety. Bruce informed the women that it was time for them to go. Dinah and Vixen both gave Ming a peck on the cheek and walked off. Hal and John said their goodbyes. J'hn said his goodbyes, and Barry gave Ming an ice cream cone and sped off. Bruce grabbed Ming and Damian.

----At the Mansion----

Damian showed Ming to her room and watched as she made her way into bed. He snuck in and slept next to her, just for her protection. He didn't want anyone else trying to hurt her, so he was gonna sleep with her tonight. He took one final look at Ming, then fell asleep.

Bruce's POV.
Damian wasn't in his room, he probably snuck out again. I'll check up on Ming, what the heck? There he is, but why is he-? Aw nevermind, I'm taking a picture of this and sending it to Jason. He'll get a good laugh out of it in the morning, might as well go to bed. Damian will take care of her, I know of it..
It's like they were meant to be...
