#Dave the CPS Flunky

[mkarchin713]

Dave didn’t think the situation would be as bad as it was. Everyone knew the Fenton’s where wackos, always going on about ghosts. They where annoying yes but harmless, unless Jack Fenton was driving but that was the traffic cops department not his.

Dave was not expecting to get shot by green lasers when he rang the doorbell (if it wasn’t for Wonder Woman he would have more than just a hole in his tie). Nor was he expecting Jasmine’s non-reaction as she used her house key to open the door (maybe he should have listened when she told him not to ring the bell)

At first the living room looked pretty typical for small town America but then Dave noticed some peculiarities. The room was mostly clean but only the bottom half. Everything under five feet was spotless, over five feet and it was filthy. Jasmine Fenton was under five feet but with her arms outstretched she could probably just reach the cleaning line.

The kitchen also looked fairly normal, if not for the step stools and toy guns on the kitchen table. The stools where everywhere, by the fridge, the cupboards, even the stove. Dave checked the cupboards, there was cheap but relatively healthy food at the bottom and expired snacks up top, far out of Jasmine’s reach even with the step stool.

Dave made a quick peak in the fridge and -

….

Food should not do that, it should not be glowing and moving. Those where hotdogs how where they moving? If it wasn’t for Batman and Jasmine he would be dead three times today. He thought the gun was a toy, it shot lasers just like the door bell. What kind of parents left working laser guns on the kitchen table and why did Jasmine even know how to use it. This was worse than he thought.

Just when Dave thought it couldn’t get any worse and explosion came from the basement. Jasmine didn’t even flinch, she just went to the bottom shelf next to the basement door and grabbed an EMT sized first aid kit and headed down the steps with the heroes in quick pursuit.

….

He was only a few seconds behind them, how had Batman end up covered in glowing green goo, why was Black Canary and Wonder Woman in a fist fight with the Fentons, where those open chemicals and a weapons vault and was that a swirling green portal in the wall. Why where the Fentons claiming the heroes where ghosts and telling Jasmine to throw them weapons, was that a bazooka, and a whip with Jack Fenton’s face on it. What the hell was going on!

…

Dave was going to retire. He was going to retire and move far away from the Fenton menace. The Drs. Fenton had been detained, tied up in their own glowing green net. Now they where yelling at Jasmine, saying she was a ghost, that was the only reason they could think of that she would shoot them with a net gun after they tried to shoot the downed Batman with the Bazooka.

Jasmine was seconds away from crying, saying she wasn’t a ghost and just wanted them to stop fighting. Her parents started going on about how the ghosts where obviously tricking her, and how she could be so stupid to believe a ghost, and how they raised her better than that. All this was going on as the seven year old patched up her parents wounds with a worryingly practiced ease.

Dave didn’t know what to do, none of his training mentioned what to do when mad scientists attacked the Justice League. No fosters in Amity would dare take the kids in fear their parents would come looking for them. Dave had seen Jack Fenton go through brick walls like the Kool-Aid Man, he doubted any prison could hold him for long. And if Daniel had powers like the heroes thought it would be even harder to place the kids in a home together.

Apparently Batman is a mind reader as just as Dave was about to bring up the placement issue the dark knight gave Dave the contact info of a league approved emergency foster who would take the kids in no questions asked. Dave looked at the card and thought maybe the rumors where true, maybe Batman was Bruce Wayne’s sugar baby.

In the middle of a Justice League meeting, Batman feels a tug on his cape. He looks down to see a little boy who could easily pass as one of his.

"Erm," the boy starts. "I frew up."

Upon further thought . . .

Dave the CPS flunky notes that he's seen Jack Fenton go through walls like the Kool-Aid Man, so now I'm wondering; What if Jack and Maddie are metas, but don't know it? They've never practiced or trained, so they've never reached their full potential, but its there.

Like, Jack is super strong with limited invulnerability or rapid healing. Like Sylvester Stallone in Samaritan. He's maybe on Killer Croc's level, but he's so single-minded that he can shrug off things that would normally put him down. The drive to protect her brother, especially in Gotham, has triggered those same powers in Jazz. Like, imagine Joker threatening Danny and BAM, this seven year old just walks right through the wall and starts scolding Danny for wandering off.

If memory serves, Maddie is a skilled in hand to hand and weapons combatant in canon. Like, Nightwing or Black Canary can take her, but she'll make 'em work for it. Her power is sensing the paranormal, like Danny didn't get his ghost sense from the portal, that's all Maddie, baby.

Imagine Jack and Maddie turning up in Gotham. The "ghosts" have their kids, and by God, they will get them back.

Now imagine Maddie, in Gotham, a known paranormal Clusterfuck, and her Ghost Sense is going nuts. Now imagine that combined with her Mother Bear tendencies.

They will get their family back . . . even if it means Gotham burns.

Joker flees town, this is too much Chaos, even for him.
