Hello! WE BEGIN OUR STORY!
Me: Okay so I don't own anything
Sansa: Not even an OC?
Me: Nope! Wait, what are you doing here?
Sansa: You should have made an Oc
Me: Get out.
"Dick…" whimpered Barbra. The lights shuddered and the room shook, as though it would collapse on them. Ten feet underground, in a steel and concrete bunker, Dick Grayson held Barbra Gordon close to him.
Batman had given him an urgent transmission. It was very brief and was full of static. He could barely makes out, "Dick, I don't have ZzZzZZz trouble in ZzZzZzZzZthe purge for heroes ZzZzZzZget underground and ZzZzZzZzZz now!
It cut off there. Dick didn't really know what to do, but he knew it was serious. After Wally's death, Batman didn't try to contact him anymore. At that time, Barbra had just arrived, nearly freaking out about the disappearances of the heroes. He had pulled her into a nearby storm cellar, the bunker they were in now.
"I'm scared." She whispered. It was something Dick had never heard her say. That wasn't the shocking part was, he was too. "I know. But we'll be fine."
The lights were stilling flickering. Unknowing to him, outside was like a cyclone was hitting them. Anyone who had powers at all, were disappearing. Just like magic, they were there one minute, gone the next.
They held each other tight. It was terrifying, what was going on, finally, the bunker stopped shaking. They both held their breath. Was it over? Dick and Barbra let go of one another. "What do we do? asked Barbra.
"We go out." Dick said, though he wasn't sure. He walked up the damp stair case and reached for the trap door that led to the open. He looked at Barbra then opened the cellar door.
It was bright, so he squinted, when his eyes got used to the light he gasped at what he saw.
Everything was intact.
People were walking out of cellars and murmuring. How could such a powerful force not leave any damage? He stepped out a motion for Barbra to follow him.
"What happened?" he asked.
"Wait, something's wrong." she said. "We need to get to the Hall." They both broke into a full on sprint. The hall was only a few blocks away, but the run felt like a decade. They burst through the doors of the empty hall.
"Hello? Hello?" Dick called. They went towards the back of the Hall, where the Leaguers worked. "Hello? Batman? Green Arrow?" called Dick. "Wonder Woman? Beast Boy? Superboy?" asked Barbra. They searched every room. "No one." Barbra said. "
The Watch Tower." Dick said. He turned towards the computer and made a contact through video feed. "Hello? Anyone there?" he asked.
It was dead quiet.
"No one's there." He muttered. Barbra flicked on the TV. The newscaster was talking, " And after this earthquake of some sorts, all super powered human and meta human are…" she trailed off, taking a breath. "Gone. Even the villains that we know, like Poison Ivy and Cat Woman. Gone. Here is a lsit of confirmed disappearance's." The screen flashed a list.

"No…" whispered Barbra. "And the list goes on. They are all… gone." She looked directly at the camera. "This is Iris West. God, save our souls."
Dick shut the screen off.
"Why are we still here?" asked Barbra. "Go underground…" muttered Dick. "We were under ground, that's why."
"What do we do? This isn't a force we can fight on our own. We have to pin point it!" a door opened behind them. They both turned.
"Oh thank goodness someone is here!" the girl said. She looked around 17, with wavy light brown hair, just below her shoulders. She blinked and looked at them, her grey green eyes looking over them.
"Whoa wait, who are you?"
"Who are you?" asked Barbra in reply.
"I asked you first."
Barbra sighed. "Batgirl and Nightwing." She said, giving away their identities. Dick looked at her. She shrugged. "What? If we go into costume, we could disappear too." She said.
"I'm Sansa Wilder. Warbird otherwise." She said, and Dick noticed she had a slight Russian accent.
"Warbird?" asked Barbra.
"Freelancer over here. I've had a friend track the force, it's pinpoint is Cape of Good Hope." She shifted, as though talking made her uncomfortable.
"The tip of Africa?" asked Dick She nodded. Dick went over to the computer and typed in something and pulled up a video feed of the Cape of Good Hope.
"Chto za huy?!" cursed Sansa in Russian.
There was a large building, with tons of technology all over the place, and pods and pods of… heroes.
"They're all on ice! We have to get over there." Barbra said.
"Okay… um bad idea letuchaya mysh' devushki."
"Why?" asked Barbra.
"Wait, she right. That force will take tons of people to free, not to mention an escape route. The Zeta will just lead us right to there. They hacked into the system."
Sansa shifted. "Um, if you want I can help." Barbra smiled. "Sure. What can you do?" Sansa held her hand out palm up and flicked it. Fire appeared. "Fire girl!" she said.
"That's cool. We can use all the help we could get." Dick said. Sansa blew out the flame. "I can get a list of freelancers, but there isn't a lot."
Dick looked grim. "That means we just need Anti Heroes." He nodded at Sansa who pulled a snap phone out of her pocket. It was an old type she flipped it opened and dialed a number.
"Tekhnologiya devushki! ey! Mne nuzhno chto-to. Da. Net. Net. spisok frilanserov i anti geroyami. Spasibo. Vy mozhete portirovat' yego v? otpravit' yego v sisteme ligi ostavat'sya v bezopasnosti, do svidaniya."
She snapped it shut.
"Okay, should have the list sent in about 10 minutes." She said.
"Okay, good. But how the heck are we getting to Africa? The Zeta is down and we can't use the Bio Ship." Dick pulled a shiny plastic card out of his pocket. It was silver and said Wayne Expense on it. "His plastic. It's for emergencies only. And as far as I know, this IS an emergency. I can have a plane ready to take us, but the only airport to get us there is in England. We can gather up people from here, then fly over to England, get some more people, then head out."
"That's not a bad idea." Barbra said. Dick checked his watch. "Okay, I'll go rent a coach bus. Barbra, you stay here with Sansa and get the list." Barbra nodded and Dick left, leaving the two alone.
"Who did you talk to? To get the list I mean." asked Barbra.
"A friend of mine." She replied. It was clear Sansa didn't want to talk. They waited for a bit then something popped up on the screen. "There." Sansa said. Barbra clicked on it and a list popped up.

"Is that all?" asked Barbra. "That's all that are left. A bunch live in Gotham, a few in Blüdhaven. Some are in Star City. Two in London, One in Texas." She trailed off. "I guess we can go from here to Chicago, then Detroit then to Texas, then it's straight to California to Star City and San Diego. We can fly to straight to England and head to London and pick up the last two, then it's to Africa. Wow, that's a lot. How much time do you think we have?" Sansa rambled on.
Barbra shrugged. "No idea. I'm guessing maybe two weeks?" a horn honked outside and the two girls turned to see a large coach bus outside of the hall. Dick waved them on. "That was fast." muttered Sansa. Barbra printed out the sheet and grabbed her bag before leaving with Sansa. They both walked up to the bus and Dick let them on.
"Wow, okay. How did you rent a bus so fast?" asked Sansa.
"I know a guy. C'mon, who is first on your list?" he asked Barbra lifted the sheet.
"Um… Connor Smith 123 Halfway Street, Apartment 3." Dick nodded. "I know where that is. Hold on tight, we have people to save."
