[hr]
The Martian Manhunter watched the Team react to Daphne's state. It was obvious his protege was a loved member of this Team. He'd hoped she would settle in well. During their mentorship, he learned Daphne’s home life had become unstable. The emergence of her powers awakened an obsessive scholarly desire in her father. On the outside, they looked like any regular family. A single dad, always working, the older brother watching out for his younger sister in high school. 

At first glance it looked like Mr. Hall only cared about his career, using Daphne’s meta-human powers as the genesis for his research publication. It was also a reason to spend time together. When he began to dig deeper he could see the dysfunctional family dynamics.  The Martian uncovered that Mr. Hall carried a great deal of regret in one of his many conversations with Daphne. He wanted to make up for lost time and reconnect with the teen girl, whom he realized he barely knew. In turn, Daphne wanted to help him with his publication. It could possibly be the breakthrough he’d been chasing after for years. She hoped after writing the publication he’d spend less time working. 

The Martian was proud of the way she put herself out there during missions. Always with a healthy dose of very real fear. It took courage to put that aside and take on the mantle of a hero.

He stared at the dark corners of the communications complex, a single tear falling from his deep-set eyes. 

[color=silver]“Martian Manhunter, is there any other correspondence between the missing teenagers. Metahuman powers, physique, hair color, hobbies?”[/color]

Viktor drew him from his mind back into the present. He looked at the stoic hero, taking his time to gather his thoughts before answering. A good minute and a half passed before he answered Viktor. 
[color=Mediumspringgreen]“There don’t seem to be many unifying qualities, apart from their age and gender. There is no correlation between their meta-human powers. Each victim was reported to be athletically inclined, but the similarities are negligible. You will have to do more reconnaissance on site."[/color]

The Martian Manhunter explained to the Team they had another five hours to prepare and rest, before traveling by zeta to New Mexico. He finally dismissed the Team, taking Daphne with him to relocate her to the improvised greenhouse located on the base level.
