103 Relatives

 Logan suddenly laughed out loud to the surprise of the two ladies in the room.

 "I have a friend, well relative, on his way to sit with the girls." Logan said still chuckling at the response from J'onn.

 "You have a relative? I didn't know this."

 "Well as I am mostly a Clone of him, you could consider him my Father in this world, I even took his last name, Logan J'onzz."

 "Wait... Your father is coming to watch our kids? This is... is too sudden. What will he think of this?"

 "Wait. Wait... You have the freaking Martian Manhunter coming to babysit?" Selina's jaw was wide open.

"Funny you should mention that word, he actually thought he would sit on them. He still doesn't get all the nuances of the language yet. That's why I was laughing. Don't worry, I explained everything to him."

 "This is not funny Logan, you can't just spring this on me. Is there any other family you haven't mentioned yet?" 

 Logan rubbed the back of his head with his right hand and smiled. "Well, there is another two genetic doners to my body, but we consider ourselves brother and sister." 

 "Are you talking about Ms. Martain?" Pam asked.

 "And Beast Boy of the Teen Titans." Logan smiled at her. 

 Pam stepped back and sat on the arm of the couch, "Any other tidbits you want to share with me since we are talking about it?"

 "Nothing comes to mind at the moment, but we do have a lot going on right now, so I could be forgetting something." Logan kept his smile going, knowing it was his best defense right now.

 "We have a lot to talk about when we are alone Mr."

 "Hey look... This really is a relationship." Selina laughed at us both.

 Pam took both girls to her room, so she could change them before J'onn got there and hopefully, he wouldn't need to change them again. No clue what Martians do for diapers. I went out to the patio to wait for J'onn. I asked him to go invisible until he got here so he didn't draw attention to the building. 

 "How long have you and Pam been seeing each other?" Came Selina's voice from behind him.

 "We started talking a few months ago. But our first date was just a couple of weeks ago. Before today I don't know if I would have considered us in a relationship. She doesn't make things easy, that girl." Logan smiled at the night sky.

 "No, she doesn't. But once you are in, she is easily hurt." Selina stepped in front of me, "And if you hurt her, then I will be all the bad luck you feared in life."

 "It's nice to see she has such a good friend Selina; I will never cause her intentional harm." 

 "Just a little warning, after all, you should never cross a Black Cat." 

Logan felt J'onn as he exited the Zeta Tube at the Salvage yard. Moments later he felt the air disturbance land beside him before J'onn revealed himself.

 "Thanks a lot for doing this J'onn, we shouldn't be out too long. Hopefully just a few hours. I am sure you know Catwoman, one of Devilbat's… Friends." 

 "One of???"

 "Though not my house, I feel I should invite you inside in place of Pam while she tends to the children. So, please come in and I will show you around." Morph appeared on my shoulder and waved at J'onn.

 "I was unaware that your relationship had moved far enough along to have children with Ms. Isley?" He said as I showed him around the loft. 

 "Well, she is a scientist and managed to cross-breed human DNA with some plant-based DNA and the children are the result. But now someone has taken said research and she doesn't want her creation misused, so we are looking to get it back tonight."

 "Impressive!"

 "The children were apparently attacked earlier today, and we couldn't leave them under protected while away, so I thought to call on you. I hope you do not mind."

 J'onn looked around, "May I meet the children and your beloved, Pamela?"

 "I am sure she will be out with the children as soon as she is done eavesdropping on our conversation through the plant over there." Logan pointed to a small succulent in a pot on the couch end table.

 He heard what sounded like a foot stomp on the floor from where Pam was with the girls. Selina laughed again and J'onn raised an eyebrow.

 Moments later Pam came out carrying Rose and Hazel. "I tried to put them in an outfit, but they really didn't like their skin being covered." She stood back from J'onn and looked at him nervously."

 {She does not appear to take ease at my presence. Should I have come in a different shape than this?} 

 {It's not that J'onn, she is perceiving you as my parental figure and she is worried you will not approve of my choice to be with her. Especially as that now comes with children. It is a human female custom when they doubt themselves.}

 J'onn gave a deep mental sigh, {I still have much to learn, it appears.}

 {So do I J'onn, so do I.}

 J'onn gave a short bow, "I am J'onn J'onzz a Manhunter of M'arzz. It is my honor to meet one who has touched my Named so deeply. I am unfamiliar with many Earth customs so please forgive any misunderstandings I may bring."

 "I am Pamela Isley, and this is Rose and Hazel." She held up the girls as she introduced them. They appeared interested in this green man in front of them. 

 "Your 'Named', Logan has touched me more deeply than I could have ever imagined. I am happy to meet you and hope you will feel like part of this… relationship growing between myself and Logan."

 Logan thought behind his mental shield, so J'onn couldn't hear him. {Smooth Pam, way to pull in a permanent babysitter.}

 J'onn showed a slight smile for a moment. "I understand that I am to sit WITH the children not ON them as the wording suggests. Logan was most specific about this distinction thankfully. Is there anything about their Physiology that I should be made aware of?"

 "Their main source of nutrition seems to be water so far, they are only a couple of days old, so we are still learning. I have bottles with specific amounts of bacteria in the fridge if they get hungry. They know where it is, so they will approach it when they want some."

 J'onn appeared startled, "Their mental facilities are exceptionally advanced for such an age. It is remarkable. You will have a great challenge to keep their knowledge base increasing with their mental acuity." 

 Pam looked a little panicked, "Umm, that will be a hurdle." Something else she hadn't considered.

 Selina stepped in, "We should probably get moving, going to take a bit of time to recon a way into that building."

 Logan walked over and took Hazel and Rose from Pam, "You two are going to stay with Grandpa for a while. Me and Mommy have to go blow some stuff up and make sure you are safe ok."

 The girls accepted being held by J'onn when Logan placed them in his arms, but both were leaning back a little, to get a better look at this new person. 

 "Reach out if you need anything J'onn, we will be back as soon as we can."

 Pam was hesitating on what to do so Logan took the lead, he leaned down and kissed both girls on their cheeks, "Be good girls, see you in a bit."

 Pam followed suit and thanked J'onn again. Then the three headed to the elevator to take the bikes to the Botanical Garden. Selina rode with Pam after tucking her whip around herself a bit better once Logan pointed out how close it would be to the tire spokes.

 Once The trio got near the Botanical center, they parked the bikes away from prying eyes having made sure to avoid any cameras along the way as well. They then found a good spot to look everything over. In no way did they want to skyline themselves by standing on a hill like they were taking a photo op for their break-in. 

 As they were standing idle while Catwoman was using a pair of hi-tech binoculars, Logan broke the silence, "You know, I think I know a way in." 

 "Hush, newbe. I'm trying to concentrate." The resident Cat Burglar told him.

 "What do you see, Selina?" 

 "I see activity, lots of it. That is definitely not an empty building Ivy." She panned her binoculars over the building a little more. Paying particular attention to the roof, where she saw five men in uniforms with standard bulletproof vests, sidearms, and long guns, topped off with each having a radio. 

 The same style of guards were at the main and back entry. "Whoa, pretty heavy security. I'm not sure how we are going to get through without a fight." She pulled her binoculars down and looked at her friend. 

 "Hey, where did your boyfriend go?"

 "After you brushed him off, he went that way." Pam pointed in the direction Logan went.

 Selina pulled up her binoculars and saw Logan sitting relaxedly next to a cover to the old steam tunnels. She was slightly offended when he gave her a smartass smile and waved.

 "Of course, the steam tunnels, he is smarter than he looks, Pam. Better lock this one down quick before the other girls get any ideas."
