Dead
The team had called Batman, or rather all of their mentors, and told them that Danny was badly injured. They'd taken Danny to the medical bay and done everything they could but they were worried that it wasn't enough. Superboy was holding onto the lightsaber Danny had when he came in, even when he was unconscious he hadn't let it go.
He let it go when Robin tried to take it but even then he was reluctant, they didn't know who it belonged to or why he had it but they wanted to know. Unfortunately they weren't even sure if Danny was going to make it, just thinking about it was actually scary to them. Miss Martian was the one that broke the suffocating silence, "Is there anything we can do?"
Aqualad quietly sighed, "I do not believe so, we've done everything we could do for him."
The heroes didn't want to leave but they knew they had to, their mentors said they'd get to the mountain in a few hours. The Leaguers would be there any minute and they had to explain what was going on, or as much as they could. They were about to start leaving when they saw movement, they looked at Danny and he opened his eyes.
He blinked before his eyes widened and he quickly sat up, he immediately held his side but didn't react much aside from that. They were all shocked and slightly disturbed that he barely showed that he was in pain, Robin ignored that and spoke, "Danny?"
Danny looked at him, "What happened?"
Aqualad spoke, "We do not know, we were hoping you did."
Danny took a second to think, his head felt fuzzy and he was sure it was from the blood loss, wait, his wound, Maul! Danny looked at the heroes, "Where's the lightsaber?"
Rocket spoke, "You mean yours?"
"No, it's long, silver, double sided."
Superboy held it out, "You mean this one?"
Danny's hand shook a little when he took it, he stared at it in his hand for a second before tears fell from his eyes. The heroes were shocked, out of everyone on the team he was the last one they expected to see cry. Robin wanted to hug him, or do anything but just sit there but he was afraid of hurting Danny.
Zatanna hesitated before speaking, "Danny, what happened?"
Danny's grip on the lightsaber tightened, "Maul's dead."
Artemis looked annoyed, "So, he was a jerk."
Danny wiped his tears away, "You didn't even know him."
Danny looked at the lightsaber before he threw the blankets off himself and stood up which actually freaked the heroes out. Before they could stop him he grabbed his robe, put Maul's lightsaber on his belt and grabbed his own before putting his robe on and leaving. He was still holding onto his side but it didn't seem to be bothering him even though they knew it had to.
They caught up to him and were trying to get him to go back to the medical bay but he didn't respond. They didn't know where Danny was going until they saw the Leaguers in front of the zeta tubes. They were surprised that Danny was up, the team told them Danny might die and he definitely didn't look like he should be up.
When they saw the tear in his clothes and the burn marks, not to mention the blood, they knew he shouldn't be. Before they could say anything the zeta tubes activated and Danny's masters walked in, Danny looked at them, "Masters."
Yoda spoke, "Told us what happened, your droid did."
G3 moved past the three Jedi and Danny smiled, "G3." The droid beeped and stopped in front of Danny, he knelt down and put his hand on the droid's head, "Well done."
All of the heroes stared at the droid, they hadn't seen it come in with the Jedi and the zeta tubes hadn't announced it's arrival. It was green and white, not to mention short, and they had no idea how it could be useful at all. Windu spoke, "What happened during your mission?"
Danny stood up and looked at him, "I left before you reached the base but, well, I ran into a complication."
Obi Wan spoke, "And what complication was that?"
"Darth Sidious."
The three paused, they'd heard the name but didn't know much about him and they hadn't expected to hear his name. Yoda hummed, "Troubling, this is."
Danny quietly sighed, "Believe me masters, it gets worse."
Yoda looked Danny in the eye, "Loss, you feel."
Danny didn't say a word, he just took out the lightsaber and at the very least Obi Wan recognized it. Windu looked at the other two Jedi masters, "We can hear about this later, I suggest having a medical droid look at Danny's injuries."
Obi Wan spoke, "I agree, as surprising as all of this is he needs medical attention."
Yoda spoke, "To the temple, we will go."
They started to leave and Danny didn't hesitate to follow, G3 followed the young Jedi and they all left, all of the heroes were confused at this point. The team was confused as to why Danny was sad Maul died and exactly who Sidious was since they knew very little about him. The Leaguers were just confused about everything, they hadn't heard much and there was obviously something going on.
Meanwhile, Obi Wan got a medical droid to check Danny's injuries and he wasn't doing great. He'd lost a lot of blood and the fact that he'd been walking around wasn't recommended by any means. When the droid finally left Danny told them what happened, they were surprised but some part of it made sense.
In the end they let Danny keep Maul's lightsaber, he'd go to the mountain as long as he took it easy and recovered. They knew he probably wouldn't though, it wasn't in his nature to just sit around even if he was hurt, they just hoped he wouldn't do anything dangerous.
