Danny was, quite frankly, irritated beyond all belief. A little bit after his clone/cousin/sister Dani had been repodded, he too had been dumped back into podsleep for who knew how long. And really, it had been horrifying enough the first time. He hadn't really wanted to repeat the experience. But of course Stacy, GlaDOS, or maybe just his avia had other plans.

He stalked his way back up to Weapons and Possesions, and, diving straight into the piles of junk, started looking for his stuff.

"Nope, nope, nope, come on, where is that dang Fenton Thermos?" Danny muttered, elbow deep in a box

If it had been anyone else who'd met Brainiac 5 and just repopped, they might have automatically assumed the Coluan had turned to evil of his own free will. But Danny knew a little about manipulative evil parental figures. Enough to write his own book if he'd been inclined.

"Lady, when I get out of here, and I will get out, I'm shoving my fist straight down your fucking throat. You do NOT mess with my friends."

"You'll find escape impossible. My assistant can verify for you, if necessary."

"Danny, I'm so sorry."

The sound came from his left where a young woman hovered at the side of the room, hands folded behind her back in a precise manner that could only have been trained into her. She was dressed in plain grey clothes that hung off her too-thin frame, her red hair chopped to a manageable length without much care for symmetry.

She looked at him with eyes empty of any hope.

"...don't fight him. You'll waste your strength. You're going to need it."

Danny's eyes widened, he gritted his teeth, and slumped down, appearing to give up.

"Fine. You win. I'm no match for the great Brainiac Dynasty. Do what you want."

"You haven't given up. You're Daniel Fenton. You're one of the most irritatingly persistent beings I know," Brainiac remarked with devastating calm. "The tricks you use on your own villains won't work here, Daniel. I'm not a villain, after all."

Brainiac fired up a rather gnarly looking probe and looked at it impassively.

"I am a scientist."

Brenda flinched from the sight of the instrument, dropping her head, shoulders hunched, but she stepped forward anyway when Brainiac flicked his fingers in her direction, stopping arms reach from him.

Her words were hollow, spoken on reflex.

"What do you require, sir?"

"Was worth a shot." Danny said, lifting up his head to show the defiant glare he'd been hiding.

"And you're right Brainy. I haven't given up. I won't give up. I can't give up, not anymore at least. And when you're done here, you'd better tell mommy dearest to watch her back."

Danny's glare continued as Brainiac 5 walked forward with the probe.

"Turn on the sound nullification field," Brainiac said to Brenda. "His screams will be terribly obnoxious otherwise."

But a little pain on Danny's part was worth it to satisfy Brainy's curiosity about his physiology, wasn't it?

It was time to get to work.
