Chapter 1: Independence Day Fireworks
Paradox the Nephilim Superhero, the founder and leader of the Renegades, the Herald of Chaos, the Harbinger of Order, the Monster of God, The King of Infinite Possibilities, Hathiyāra, and many more titles than he liked.
Currently he was unconscious, floating in the void alongside his longtime friends and cofounders of the Renegades after their final battle with the leader of the Purists.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
In the final battle that they had gotten into with the leader of the Purists, a group of humans that wanted to eliminate all traces of the supernatural to ensure humanity's "ascension". During the fight the Purist leader Alastair Björn revealed himself as the Devil himself. After he revealed his true identity the newly revealed Devil began to tear holes in reality. As that happened Andrew summoned his Divine Warrior, the Apocalyptic Guardian, a weapon that had been in his body since birth and carried his friend Arcafinr, a massive heterochromatic eyed tiger who was the living manifestation of the chaos of creation, alongside him in his soul was Arcafinr's brother Atzalan, a massive golden lion who was the living manifestation of the order of creation.
To Andrew's left also summoning his Divine Warrior, Nemian Wigar which contained the soul of the Nemian Lion, was Arthur Eis one of his best friends, a descendant of Enkidu and their resident electrokinetic speedster who went by the codename Raiden while they were being heroes and could call down massive storms from the sky by manipulating the electrified ions in the ionosphere.
To Andrew's right encased in amethyst and black flames in the shape of a bipedal wolf was Cole Connors his other best friend and another descendant of Enkidu who held the Divine Warrior Draco Carcere, which held the Poison Flame Dragon Meronus, a spirit of fear that called itself the "Big Bad Wolf" along with being half ghost. He went by Shade while they were in costume.
The rest of their small group consisted of Aubrey Romanov who was like a little sister to the three boys and went by Trinna and could control water. Clark Simmons, who went by the name Seraph, was the team's hacker along with being a technopath who could enter into technology and take control of it. Connor Wolfe known as Maverick to the public and Experiment B-93 to the Purists, he was also blind and could manipulate the energy of nature at will. These six were the original founders of the Renegades when they went public.
Alongside them were Leonè Pendragon – Du Lac who went by the name Frost due to her cryokinetic powers that she used alongside Excalibur and Avalon, yes the real ones, she was also the descendant of both King Arthur and Lancelot. Reynard Ascalon the young heir of a secret group of knights who called themselves the Ebony Guard, he contained the Divine Warrior Shinning Darkness, that contained the angels Appolyon and Oertha, he also held the blade of his ancestor St. George, Ascalon, he went by the name Paladin in the field. Antenor Sulphalatus a Nephalem, the child of an angel and a demon, who had a symbiotic demon called Nertha and was Photokinetic and able to manipulate dust, the public knew him by the name Dusk. Daniel Fredrick, who preferred to be called Dan, could manipulate kinetic energy and used cards in tandem with his powers he also was born with the Divine Warrior Heaven's Cathedral to the public he was known as Joker. Finally there was Tony Valdez, whose real first name was Anthony, he was master of the mystic arts and used them in tandem with his street fighting skills, to the public he was Arcane.
With them but not a part of the Renegades were Andrew's adopted children Alex Cross known as War, Elysia Stephen known as , James Clancy, and Zora Eurwen. The public knew them as the Horsemen due to their power and the fact that they were the reincarnations of the four horsemen.
An intense vacuum caused by the rifts in reality began to pull the group of fighter's back. Andrew quickly activated Apocalyptic Guardian's final state Apocalyptic Genesis the armor he was wearing quickly flashed white before revealing his new appearance. His brown hair was now longer and looked like giant feathers; sitting on his forehead was a golden circlet that had a small sapphire as its center. Around his neck was a golden amulet that extended down to his chest and over his shoulder and a red sash. Across his torso were black tattoos, around his waist were red and black sashes trimmed with gold held in place by a black sash with a gold medallion holding it together. On his arms and legs were golden bracelets decorated with rubies sprouting out of his shoulder blades was a pair of massive kaleidoscopic wings.(1) Spinning lazily around his back where six metallic orbs the linked into a chain of what looked like large Buddhist prayer beads. Quickly he materialized Enkidu, a weapon from his ancestor Gilgamesh, and sent the divine chain to keep them anchored.
Once he did that he reached deep within Hathiyāra, his reality marble containing almost every mythical weapon ever created, and began drawing on his reserves of magic as he found the weapons he was looking for and brought them forth. Fading into existence around him were some of the strongest weapons in his arsenal Gungir, Brionac, Galatine, Ascalon, Fragarach, Caliburn, Excalibur, and overcharged them with his magic before launching them at his enemy.
A howling scream followed each of the weapons struck home into his enemy's body.
Quickly Arthur and Cole started attacking with lightning and poisonous flames as he began reciting his aria.
"My Soul was Born of Steel,"
He reached deep within Hathiyāra, searching through the forest filled with swords that made up his inner world.
"Thou art I and I art Thou,"
He reached out for a single sword.
"Tempered and Forged from Heaven's Hands,"
A sword that preceded the modern concept of a sword.
"My Body is made from Swords and Bathed in Fire,"
While it had a grip and a handguard that is all it shared with a sword.
"Neither Saint, Nor Sinner am I,"
Where the blade was supposed to be it was split in three rotating sections like a bedrock drill.
"Hear this silent prayer."
Each of the sections was covered in crimson cuneiform pulsing with power.
"For I have always been,"
It's single purpose to rip and tear away all before it and reveal truth.
"The Sum, The Origin,"
A blade coveted by his ancestor and the strongest weapon in his arsenal, a weapon to destroy worlds, a sword of rupture.
"Hathiyāra"
Its name was
"EA" Andrew stated as the world destroying weapon of Gilgamesh took form in his hand.
"Arthur! Cole! Move Now!" He shouted, they nodded before moving away from their current enemy. Without a word Enkidu quickly wrapped their waists anchoring them to the ground to keep them from falling into the rifts that surrounded them. Andrew, Arthur, Cole, Connor, and Clark were now cut off from their companions their group was now alone with the Devil surrounded by dimensional rifts.
Andrew began to chuckle as his wings unfurled from his back showing his status as a Nephilim, a half angel, before looking to his friends.
"I guess this is our final fight huh guys." He said a sad smile on his face as he began flooding Ea with everything he had left in his reserves. "We're going out the way it started."
"We've gotten out of worse fights don't count us out yet." a confident grin worked its way onto Clark's face with those words.
"Yeah, we're too goddamned suborn to kick the bucket yet!" Arthur shouted over the wailing grind produced by Ea.
"We're with you till the end and even beyond that." Cole growled out from his wolf form.
Connor turned his head towards Andrew with a savage grin on his face "Enough with the sentimentalities let's fucking kill this bastard already!"
Andrew nodded to them as the amount of power contained in Ea reached its maximum and he spoke the two words that ended the fight between five wayward heroes and the original evil.
"Enuma Elish"
Then the world around them exploded into a swirling crimson vortex before in front of them the one who they fought since the time they were brought together was obliterated into nonexistence.
Maybe in a different time and place they would have rejoined there friends. But this wasn't that time and place.
After the aftermath from Ea died down the dimensional rifts that surrounded them during the fight had been pulled in close and were now seconds from drawing the young heroes into their depths. They were quickly dragged into the abyss before a single sound could be uttered.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
Now Andrew and his friends were floating unconscious in the void and unable to do anything in his unconscious state, this didn't mean that someone else couldn't do something though. Deep within Andrew's soul Arcafinr and Atzalan were forcing as much energy out to break through the void that surrounded their host and possessor.
Finally after what could be called an eternity the two of them succeeded in breaking out of the void as the area beneath the group cracked and shattered before the six wayward heroes fell through the gap that had been created.
As they fell through the gap Andrew regained consciousness long enough to see a building on fire and the sudden approaching of concrete. Only one thought passed through his head.
"Oh, That Fucking Hurts!" He screamed mentally before letting out a groan of pain, the healing factor he had due to being a Nephilim was on overdrive healing his most life-threatening injuries. As he struggled to get up he heard the sound of five more thumps and a groan of pain following each.
It took about a minute before he got up and looked around Arthur, Cole, Clark and Connor were also with him and getting up as well looking worse for wear.
Andrew was a 17 year old with ice blue eyes and shaggy dark brown hair, Apocalyptic Guardian which shifted back into its normal armor form had now faded away revealing that he was wearing a pair of crimson cargo pants that had armor plating on the thighs and ankles, he was also wearing a long sleeved shirt a shade darker than that of his pants that ended with his forearms covered in a pair of steel greaves and hands covered in a pair of black fingerless gloves.
Cole was no longer a spectral bipedal wolf, his ghost form, but a tall pale teenager with long red hair that was loosely braided halfway with the rest tied off into a pony tail, his clothes consisted of a white hoodie with tribal designs along the arms, a pair of gray cargo pants, and combat boots.
Arthur had retracted the helmet created by Nemian Wigar revealing a face with spikey blond hair, sapphire blue eyes and a cheeky grin and his entire body was covered by the metallic gold colored body armor by Nemian Wigar.
Clark had short jet black hair with black eyes and a tanned complexion from his Native American heritage. He was wearing a black armored chest plate, a large black bracelet and cargo pants with a leather jacket that held most of his smaller inventions.
Connor was a massive seven and a half foot tall muscular teen that had head full of long black spiky hair and a pair of black shades that covered his lack of eyes within his head. He had a camo cargo pants and a matching shirt on underneath a dark green flak jacket that he had hanging open.
"Did anyone get the number of the truck that hit us?" Arthur groaned as he stretched his arms out
"This isn't time for you jokes Arthur we need to find out where we're at you…" whatever Cole was going to say after that was cut off by the sound of an explosion and the wail of a fire engine's siren.
The group of five quickly made their way to the edge of the building they were on and looked across the street and saw a building on fire, firefighters were battling the flames on one of the top levels of the building.
"You guys want to be heroes one more time." Andrew said with a grin as he extended his wings showing their steel gray feathers, he looked back towards his friend the grins they were sporting said it all. Without a single word the group took off towards the scene to help.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
When they arrived at the scene they immediately set to work trying to contain the flames. Within a couple minutes a group of three other costumed people showed up and began helping as well, one was dressed in a red and black suit with a black cape and domino mask, another was in a body suit with a neon yellow torso and red skintight pants, and the last one was dressed in a red muscle shirt with black tattoo lines running down his arms a gold belt buckle and navy blue pants before they quickly went inside the building.
"Where are they going?" Andrew thought before signaling the rest of his group to follow him as he followed him inside.
"Wait up you three!" he shouted but it was too late as they jumped down the elevator shaft. "Damn it" he swore looking down the shaft.
"Did you catch them?" Clark asked as he walked up to him the rest of the group a few feet behind.
"No, they just went down the chute." Andrew sighed
"They're quick I'll give them that." Arthur said getting a nod and grunt of agreement from Cole and Connor respectively.
"I can see them they're down deep but we should catch up with them fast if we take the express route." Connor said with a savage grin before he jumped down the elevator shaft
"No that's what I call an idea." Andrew jumped down after him into the darkness knowing the rest would follow.
When they hit the ground the three heroes who arrived before them were fighting a large man wearing a golden helmet, a modified security outfit and wielding a large golden shield.
"Looks like chrome dome is close friends with E.T." Andrew thought before reciting the first two lines of his aria.
"My Soul was Born of Steel,"
"Thou art I and I art Thou,"
Then a single weapon took form in his hand, The Staff of the Monkey King, Ruyi Jingu Bang. Without a single word the staff extended hitting the man with the gold helmet squarely on the head knocking him back into a nearby wall.
"So, you guys need help?" he asked with a smile as Conner started to pick off the weird blue imp-like creatures by throwing them around before letting out a deafening roar.
"Who..?" The kid in yellow and red spandex asked before Andrew cut him off.
"So who are you three?" He asked before taking the staff and smacking away some of the imp like creatures.
The tan blond was the first to speak "How did you find us?"
Andrew blanched at that, seriously how could someone miss five super powered humans fighting a fire "Seriously, you didn't see five; I don't know super powered people fighting the fire outside the building?"
The black haired kid seemed to actually be sheepish at his comment and looked like was going to answer before the red head appeared is a yellow blur. A single thought popped into Andrew's head "A speedster huh." He grinned.
The sound of feet hitting the ground made Andrew look back toward the now broken elevator as the rest of the Renegades came out; quickly he began giving his team orders to help out the other three down here.
"Seraph, start hacking this place's servers and try to get every ounce of information you can and get control of the systems controlling this place." With a quick nod Seraph quickly turned into a stream of pixels and entered a nearby control panel.
"Everyone else follow me." He said as he began walking down the hall before a yellow blur appeared in front of him.
"Who are you?" the redhead said painting his finger at him.
"Paradox, the rest are Raiden, Shade, Seraph is the one you just saw enter the access panel over there and Maverick who is having a lot of fun fighting those smurf rejects" Andrew stated looking at the three of them "And you are?"
"Kid Flash," He said holding out his hand which Andrew shook "That's Aqualad," Kid Flash said pointing to the blond "And that's…" the black haired kid cut him off.
"Robin" the newly named Robin said "How'd you get in here?" he asked.
Andrew turned around and pointed to the now open elevator shaft "That's how, but that's not the point, we need to get going I don't think these guys are going to stay down for long" He gestured to the man in the golden helmet and the smurf rejects before looking over to Robin who had a holographic screen up looking at something on it.
"Hey bird boy what's going on?" He asked as the group made their way towards another elevator, this one was bigger than the last so they should all be able to get in without a problem.
"This is Cadmus and It's been on the League's radar, but we've only just found out they've been genetically engineering weapons." He said.
"So," Andrew asked hesitantly "Are you guys sidekicks?" the three young heroes visibly tensed at that question.
Andrew smiled as he looked at them "Yeah, what of it." Kid said his eyes narrowed.
Andrew shook his head "It's nothing you remind me of Raiden, Shade, and I when we started being heroes. We were about bird boy over there's age when we started fighting street crimes as for sidekicks I had four of them but I never called them my side kicks they were my kids and I'm proud of how they turned out." A sad smile worked its way onto his face.
"Yeah but we didn't look as ostentatious." Raiden said chuckling.
"At least we're not the one covered entirely in gold." Kid argued back "Besides aren't you a bit young to be a dad?" he asked.
"I know but I was the one they looked up to as a Dad and I took them in after I found them, they were orphans that everyone had given up on and reminded me of myself when I was a lot younger." Andrew said before Maverick let out a low growl.
"I hate to interrupt memory lane but we have more of those bastards closing in fast and a hell of a lot more than before." His said in steely tone "If we're getting to that elevator we better hurry up now!"
As soon as he said that the scraping sound of nails against metal was all the incentive they needed to get them to the elevator. They started running towards the elevator once they reached it the smurf rejects Maverick sensed barreled down the hall towards them. Once most of them got inside the blue imp creatures had already closed in Aqualad brought one of his water bearers out and created a mace which he quickly swung knocking a few of the imps down the hall before Maverick stood in front of him and let out a massive roar that sent the rest of the imps down the hall before they collided with a wall.
The two quickly got in before the doors closed. Aqualad looked up and saw the elevator's counter increasing "We're headed down?" he asked incredulously.
"Dude, out is up!" Kid exclaimed pointing to the celling.
"Excuse me Projects Kr and Ar, they're down on sublevel fifty two." Robin said.
"This is out of control," Aqualad scratched the back of his head "Perhaps… Perhaps we should contact the League."
Andrew held up his hand "Ok, question what exactly are Projects Kr and Ar, also what's this league you keep talking about?" the rest of the Renegades nodded in agreement, or grunted in Maverick's case.
The three young heroes looked at the six in front of them incredulously before Kid spoke up.
"Seriously you guys don't know about the Justice League, the assembly of the world's strongest heroes, where have you been living under a rock?" the Renegades looked at eachother before Andrew spoke up.
"Yeah, something like that," he shook his head "So what are Projects Kr and Ar anyways?" he asked
Robin shook his head before answering "It was triple encrypted and I was only able to break the first two encryptions before we were caught. The rest you know."
Andrew nodded before the elevator dinged and the doors opened revealing hallways made out of some sort of fleshy looking substance.
"We're here." Kid said as the group walked out.
He put one of his clawed spectral hand on the wall before pulling his hand off and spoke "Talk about going into the belly of the beast, these walls are warm and feel like flesh talk about creepy." He said
"This coming from the talking werewolf creature?" he said before Shade growled at him as Andrew stiffened as his suit seemed to shift
"Father?" a small girly voice echoed in his head "What's going on?"
"Just be quite for a little bit Leeal we're helping out these young heroes, just a little longer and we'll get out of here. Ok?" he asked the Symbiotic Demon that made up his suit.
"Ok." The voice replied before falling silent.
As soon as the voice fell silent what seemed to be a spindly limbed blue skinned being with large horns jutting out from its forehead wearing a lab coat walked out of the adjacent hallway.
"Hold" it said before it's horns and eyes glowed red lifting up two canisters near it before hurling them at the wall behind the group where they exploded. The group went down the hallway to the right as Robin sent two disks at being before they were stopped by it.
The group made it to a giant metal door Project Kr/Ar as a scientist exited Kid Flash slid knocking her legs out from under her. Andrew ran forward placing his staff in-between the doors as he let the rest of the group through before cutting the magic he had sustaining the weapon. Quickly the staff dissipated into tiny golden motes of light before fading away.
Andrew turned around and saw Robin at work on his wrist mounted holo-computer "I disabled the door, we're safe." Robin said as he stopped typing.
"We're trapped." Aqualad said with a sense of grin finality
"Spread out guys," Andrew said to the Renegades "Be prepared for anything." The others nodded as they spread out in the room.
"Uh, guys?" Kid said as he walked up to a control panel "You'll wanna see this" he pressed a button on the panel.
Andrew walked up to the control panel along with Robin and Aqualad as two lights came on overhead illuminating two pods.
"Whoa" that's all that Robin said but it spoke for everyone standing there. In front of them were two teens suspended unconscious in the pods one was a blonde female the other a black haired male. Both were wearing white jumpsuits but what made the three young heroes', from this dimension, eyes widen was the red symbol inscribed on their chests, the insignia of their world's most famous hero, Superman.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
I originally thought of stopping here and continuing in the next chapter. But I decided against it so back to the story, enjoy.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
"What the fucking hell is Cadmus up to anyway?" Andrew asked as he walked to the pods before putting a hand on the one that held the blonde, her hair stopped at her shoulders and was gifted generously in the chest department.
He looked over to the black haired teen in the other pod the teen's hair was close cropped on the sides and filled out near the top. Just from looking at him he could tell that he was near his height.
"Big "K" little "r" and big "A" little "r" the atomic symbols for Krypton and Argon." Kid Flash said to the crimson hooded hero next to him.
"Robin," Aqualad addressed the caped hero next to him "Hack"
"Right, Right" Quickly Robin pulled a usb cord from one of his gloves and plugged it into the console, as soon as he plugged into it a stream of pixels came out of the screen and quickly formed into Seraph.
Andrew quickly went over to his friend "Seraph are you ok?" he asked concerned as he helped his friend up.
"Yeah, man their network is extensive but I think I have all their information and dirty little secrets." Clark said with a shit-eating grin.
"I'm in!" Robin said and Clark and Andrew made their way over with Kid Flash "Weapon designation: Superboy, a clone force grown in…" Robin's eyes widened behind his domino mask "Sixteen Weeks, from DNA acquired from Superman!"
"Who's the other one?" Andrew asked pointing to the blonde
Robin tapped a few keys "Weapon designation: Power Girl, another clone force grown in sixteen weeks, from DNA acquired from Supergirl!"
"Stolen is more like it." Aqualad said
"There's no way the big guy knows about this." Kid exclaimed
"What's with the suits?" asked Cole eyeing the two suspended in the tubes, the sight making him remember some of the experiments that the Purists had performed.
"Solar suits they allow them to absorb yellow sun radiation twenty four seven." Robin replied.
"And these creatures?" Aqualad asked pointing to the imp shaped creatures suspended in glass domes above each of the clones.
"Genomorph Gnomes," Robin replied "Telepathic they're force feeding them and education."
"We can guess what else they're feeding them," Kid said "They're making a slave of out… well Superman's son and Supergirl's daughter/sister."
"Now we contact the League." Aqualad said pressing his golden belt buckle, huh so that's what it was.
"No signal." Robin said checking his holo-screen
"Hey you guys might want to look at this," Clark said gesturing to his wrist mounted computer.
"What is it Seraph?" Aqualad asked the masked hero in black
Seraph gestured to the image on his computer "Do you know these guys?"
Robin was the first one over and his eyes widened in shock after looking at the screen "That can't be?"
Equally shocked Aqualad said "It's a younger Roy."
"How's this possible!? The Roy we know is the real Roy, right, Right?" Kid sounded like he was trying to convince himself more than anything.
Seraph typed away at the computer and brought up another file. "The Roy you know is a clone that replaced the real Roy three years ago. The clone was designed to act exactly the same as the Roy you knew except with a few extra mental commands that give him the undying urge to join the Justice League. The other lets him be controlled by a code word." Seraph slammed his fist into the console before snarling "a code word that isn't in this facility's data base."
"We have to save him." Aqualad stated, though Kid Flash looked anything but eager.
"What about our Roy?"
"That can wait for later, the rest of the Renegades can save Roy and the other guy here as well." Andrew looked at Clark for confirmation. "Jim Harper. The real Guardian. The one Paradox knocked out earlier is also a clone."
"Then get going." Andrew said to his team, quickly Cole carved a hole through the thick floor the rest of the Renegades followed leaving Andrew with the three young heroes.
Robin clenched his fist "Cadmus is so going to pay for this."
"That can wait. We need to figure out what to do with Super Babe and Superboy for now." Andrew scowled at him before nodding in agreement.
He looked towards Robin "You said those things were force feeding them an education," the boy nodded "could they have them mind controlled to attack anyone who wasn't apart of Cadmus and opened their pods? What do you think?"
Kid Flash was the one to answer "I say we get ready to kick ourselves some Kryptonian butt!"
"Easier said than done," Robin said "There's a reason why Superman is one of the strongest heroes in the world for a reason, not only that but their suits feed the solar energy twenty four seven."
"But we're not leaving them here," Andrew stated firmly giving no room for disagreement "If I did it would go against everything I believe in. Do it"
Robin pressed a key on his holopad and the pods opened with a hiss releasing freezing mists as the doors rose upwards freeing the Kryptonian clones.
Without a word Superboy shot out of his pod and slammed Andrew in the gut sending him into the wall were he left an imprint before the clone went after the other three heroes.
Andrew got up with a groan, he hadn't expected Kryptonians to be so fast, he looked up Power Girl was standing there and eyeing him.
"Ok, you're not going to get past me" he said punching his fists together creating a burst of fire as he did so "I really don't enjoy hitting women but I doubt you feel the same about me." The girl just stood there "Hey! Are we going to stand here all day?"
The girl scowled as her eyes turned red.
"Fuck!" Andrew shouted as he dodged a pair of red beams coming from the girl's eyes and threw a condensed ball of fire at her that detonated when it hit her, it didn't do much as she came out of the fire unharmed and shot towards him.
He ducked low and charged his fists with fire before sending them into Power Girl's stomach. The force caused by the fire enhanced punch sent her flying back through the pods which exploded on impact.
She shot back out of the rubble unharmed and went for Andrew again, this time trying to run him through. Quickly he jumped up to avoid it, but she didn't miss a beat. She grabbed by his legs and swung him side to side slamming him into the ground repeatedly creating human sized dents in the floor with each impact before tossing him into the rubble from the destroyed pods.
Andrew grunted as he lifted himself from the rubble "Ok, no more Mr. Nice Guy." He said as he got up and used his powers to light himself on fire as he launched himself once again at her. This time he caught her around the neck with a lariat and slammed her into the ground.
He looked over and saw the other three were now knocked out, that was the worst mistake he ever made because it gave Power Girl enough time to punch him in the face knocking him to the ground. His exhaustion from the battle he had before was catching up to him, as he began to pass out he gathered up what lingering energies from Arcafinr and Atzalan that were in his reserves and sent them towards her and Superboy. When the energy connected he felt something enter his mind before he passed out.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
Andrew appeared in a massive forest clearing that was lit by early dawn light and populated by swords and other weapons of the like, in a section farthest from him was a massive tree with two enormous beasts lying in front of it, with a fire between the two, seemingly asleep. He was still in his suit but without the hood.
He looked around a bit more and saw Superboy and Power Girl's conscious amongst the swords both had three little G-Gnomes surrounding them their horns glowing.
His eyes narrowed as he waved his hand and six blades fell from the sky splitting the Gnomes in half; their presence in his mind vanished leaving no trace.
Andrew sat down near the two just as their eyes opened.
"You!" Power Girl growled getting up, Superboy just glared at him.
"Relax," He said dismissively waving his hand "you won't be able to beat me here. You'd need decades of mental training and meditation just to be able to compete with me." To prove his point a few swords extended and quickly wrapped themselves around Superboy and Power Girl's arms and legs, they began trying to get free.
"Let us go!" Superboy growled.
"Only if we can talk without either of you trying to pound my head into the ground." Andrew replied with a grin trying to compromise with them.
"Why would we talk to the enemy!?" Power Girl exclaimed.
"What makes me an enemy?" He asked arching an eyebrow.
"You attacked us!"
"No you guys attacked first. I was just the guy fighting for my life." He grinned at their reactions; the blonde was now blushing while the black haired kid looked sheepish at that comment. "But really what's the harm in talking?"
The two shared a look before Superboy answered "What do you want?" Andrew released the two from their bindings and they glared at him
"Alight, first thing what's your name?"
"Project Kr number 3: Superboy" He answered robotically, Andrew frowned.
"Project Ar number 12: Power Girl." She answered robotically as well, his frown deepened.
"No, those are your designations! Don't either of you have a name?" It was the two clones turn to frown.
"Our creators didn't give us one. Superboy is just fine."
"As is Power Girl."
"Are you two items or people?" Andrew asked.
"I'm a person!"
"As am I."
"Are you sure?" he questioned.
"Yes!" the two clones answered in unison.
"Then the two of you need names then. Real names." Andrew stated.
"Well we don't…' Power Girl started.
"So get over it." Superboy finished.
"How about Karen and Conner." Andrew offered holding his chin thoughtfully.
"No, don't just name me random things. Don't name me at all!" Power Girl growled out, though Superboy seemed to be considering it.
"It's not random; I just think that the name suits you beautifully." The blonde blushed again "Plus it's a lot easier to say then Power Girl. And you," he pointed to Superboy "Remind me of my friend Connor, minus the razor sharp teeth."
"I… I like it." Superboy now Conner said a small smile found its way onto his face.
"Fine," Karen conceded "I'll let you call me Karen, but what's your name exactly?"
"Paradox. Actually it's Andrew but I go by Paradox whenever I'm wearing this outfit." He gestured to what he was wearing.
"I'll call you Andrew then." She said with a smile and Conner nodded.
"Well now that we have intros out of the way, we should get down to the problem at hand."
"What would that be then?" She asked while her and Connor's eyes narrowed
"Cadmus is holding several people including the two of you captive. No one should be held captive not Roy, not Jim, and certainly not either of you. All of you are alive and deserve to be free and live your lives as you choose to and see fit. You may both be clones but you're alive and as long as you're alive you can make your own choices and become even greater than those you were cloned from. The people here wish to use the two of you and the rest of the genomorphs as weapons. Both of you said that you weren't items, then come with me. I don't know much about this world being new to this dimension and all, but I can promise you that I'll do my best to give you both the lives that you want to live. To me you'd both be people, not items or weapons." Andrew extended his hands in friendship to the two in front of him.
Both of them looked at the offered hands, then at eachother looking uncertain, before Conner asked the question "How can we trust you?"
"Because promises like this I would never break or go back on my word." He said smiling.
"If you're lying…" Karen started
"I'll stand still while the two of you blast my head to smithereens." Andrew assured them nonplussed by the idea of someone trying to kill him.
The two clones grabbed his hands before they vanished in a flash of white from his inner world.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
When Andrew woke up he found himself in a tube with his hands bound above his head and his feet bound to the floor, he began using his fire abilities to heat up the restraints. He looked over and saw the other three young heroes bound in similar tubes, and a man with brown and gray hair walked in with another scientist and the man with the golden helmet that he had knocked out earlier, presumably Guardian. All three of them had smurf rejects on their shoulders
"They won't be able to show them anything." The graying man said "They'll be otherwise occupied." Andrew narrowed his eyes at the underlying meaning of the statement; it reminded him of the scientists of Millennium Wind that experimented on Cole, Arthur, Clark, and Connor when they were captured while they were younger.
"Activate the cloning process." Andrew's eyes went wide at that, Robin seemed to make a comment he couldn't quite hear "And get the weapons back in their pods!" The man shouted irritably. When Guardian put his hands on their shoulders then the two of them shrugged his hands of their shoulders. "Don't start thinking now."
With that Superboy delivered a right hook to Guardian's jaw that sent him flying into the other scientist then into the wall knocking them out. At the same time Power Girl punched the man with graying hair sending him tumbling against the floor in a heap. "Don't give me orders." Conner growled at the downed bodies before the two made their way over to the tubes.
Andrew had finally heated the restraints enough to allow him to break them before smashing them into the glass to break it.
"Damn that thing's stuffy." He joked jumping out of the tube, before looking towards Conner and Karen "Let's get them out of there." He gestured to the three still in the pods.
"So you going to help us or fry us?" Kid Flash asked looking at Superboy who was staring at them.
"Huh," He said looking a bit surprised "I don't seem to have heat vision so I suppose like helping is the only option." Andrew chuckled at the clone's sarcastic humor.
"You and I are going to get along just fine." He said placing his hand on Conner's shoulder.
Robin jumped down out of the pod after picking the locking mechanism for the restraints. "Ow, I'm lucky that Batman isn't here right now, he'd have my head for taking so long." He made his way over to the control panel.
"Seriously!" Kid flash exclaimed "That's what you're worried about? The whole league will have our heads after tonight!" Robin pressed a button on the control panel the covers for the pods holding Kid Flash and Aqualad. Superboy jumped up and broke the restraints holding Aqualad helping him down while Andrew melted the restraints holding Kid Flash before he jumped down. Once they were on the floor the five of them shot off towards the elevator, but not before Robin threw some disks at the orbs containing their DNA which detonated on contact destroying the contents.
As they raced out Andrew heard someone say something but wasn't paying much attention to it as they needed to get out.
"We're still fifty two levels underground." Aqualad said only to stop as G-Trolls, the giant horned four legged creatures, entered the hallway.
Andrew kept on running though and sent a condensed wave of fire toward them clearing a path for the group to get to. Suddenly Robbin's holo-computer started beeping before opening up and showing Seraph's face. "Paradox, we have the captives both are knocked out, we'll meet you outside the building. Seraph out." He said before his picture faded and the screen shut off.
Robin was looking at his wrist mounted computer with an unreadable expression. "Why can't anyone, even me, just be whelmed?" It looked like he wanted to say more but the group had arrived at the elevator shaft. Power Girl quickly tried the doors to the elevator open revealing the lack of an elevator car. Power Girl quickly flew up the shaft and waited for the rest to enter.
Robin shot a grappling hook inside swung in and was quickly followed by Kid Flash who jumped onto one of the ledges. After him came Superboy who grabbed Aqualad and jumped into the shaft trying to fly he went up a few hundred yards but began to fall.
"I'm falling?" was the only thing he said. Seeing this Andrew unfurled his wings and took off into the shaft and caught the two keeping them from falling.
"Superman can fly, why I can't fly?" Superboy asked a look of disbelief on his face
"Don't know but it looks like you can leap tall buildings in a single bound, still cool." Kid said trying to cheer him up.
"You just keen having more and more surprises don't you?" Power Girl said with a sly grin looking at the Nephilim hero. Andrew smiled back.
"Now let's get out of here." He said shooting up through the shaft with a powerful flap of his wings. Only to stop when he heard the sound of an elevator car descending.
"Guy's," Robin said "This'll have to be our stop." Only for Andrew to throw a ball of flames at it and Power Girl to shoot heat rays at it, ultimately reducing it to rubble. "Or not."
It took a couple minutes they made it to SL 14 where they got off due to Andrew not being able to carry both Aqualad and Superboy in his current state much longer. Kid Flash laughed. "Now I finally have room to move!" the speedster shot off up the nearby staircase, where he bowled over the G-Elves coming down the stairs, the rest of the group not coming not far behind him.
"We have more behind us!" Robin shouted. Superboy nodded before slamming his foot down on the staircase sending the sections underneath them falling. Andrew followed up running next to him and sending a concentrated blast of fire down the destroyed stairs setting them ablaze.
When they reached the end of the stairs Kid Flash shot out of the stairwell just as the alarms went off. "Crap!" he ran into a blast door just as it closed.
Superboy and Aqualad tried to pry open the door to no avail. "I can't hack the doors fast enough." Robin said
"That must mean everyone else got out already." Andrew thought as a loud thumping came down the hall. Two G-Trolls come around the corner, Robin ran over to a side door and kicked it open.
"This way!" we all went through the door only to come face to face with Guardian and a squad of G-Gnomes, G-Trolls, and G-Elves. Within seconds they were surrounded on all sides, everyone got ready for a fight; Power Girl, Superboy, and Kid Flash all got into fighting stances, Robin prepped his throwing disks, Aqualad changed his water bearers into swords, while Andrew kept up the guise of only using fire by lighting his fists on fire and retracting his wings.
The horns on the G-Elves began to glow red before knocking out most of the group except for Superboy, Power Girl, and Andrew.
"Yeah, that's not going to work, you couldn't get into my head unless you had my permission. Maybe I should light this place up." Andrew growled as the flames on his hands burned brighter.
"We are not hostile." The tall genomorph wearing the lab coat from before as he spoke in their minds. "But perhaps for the sake of all genomorphs, our brother Superboy and sister Power Girl should make up their own minds."
"It was you!" Superboy said as Power Girl glared at the elfin being
"I don't answer to you anymore."
"I set the fire and lured your new friends here down into Cadmus. I ordered my brethren to other areas so you would be met with minimal resistance."
"You were the one who made this happen." Superboy realized.
"Why?" Power Girl asked. "What's the point of freeing us when it's only gotten your kind killed?"
"Because my kind is your kind, both of you are our hope, the genomorph heroes. We'll gladly die for the path to freedom and that freedom starts with yours. Both of you will blaze a trail for all our brothers and sisters, showing us the way to freedom. Now what is your choice?"
"Freedom." They said in unison
Andrew chose this moment to speak up. "Since we're a part of this plan of yours, would you mind waking these three up?" he said pointing to the young heroes.
The three woke up along with the Guardian clone coming to his senses. The Guardian clone looked at the group in front of him. "Go." He told the young heroes. "I'll deal with Desmond."
"I think not," a voice behind Guardian announced they moved showing Dr. Desmond holding a vial of blue liquid. "Project Blockbuster will give me the power to return order to Cadmus." With that he downed the contents of the vial.
Desmond's body contorted in pain before his body expanded and the muscles under his skin grew turned black and his skin was torn off revealing a grotesque black and red veined grinning behemoth.
"Everyone Back!" shouted the clone Guardian who proved to be a true hero despite being a product of Cadmus as he was the first to charge the behemoth, but unfortunately he was quickly backhanded into a nearby wall knocking him out.
Superboy was the first to charge from the small group towards Blockbuster jumping up and punching him in the face repeatedly before getting knocked back. Power Girl Shot forward flying low as Superboy jumped going for an overhead hammer strike. The beast caught both before it roared before jumping up and slamming them through the ceiling.
"Now we have an exit." Andrew said before spreading his wings and blasting up through the hole in the floor after the beast.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
Andrew was now airborne in the main lobby of Cadmus seeing Conner and Karen fight the beast. He began firing streams or superheated flames at the beast as cover fire but it seemed to tank each shot. "This is fucking ridiculous!" he thought as Robin, Aqualad, and Kid Flash emerged from the hole in the floor the beast had created.
They immediately joined the fray and began fighting the beast, but it caught Aqualad by the legs when he went to smash the beast's head with a spited mace formed from his water bearers and slammed him into one of the support beams effectively destroying it.
"That doesn't look good." Kid Flash said "If he keeps it up he'll bring the whole building down on us."
"Of course, why didn't I see it before!?" Robin exclaimed bringing up a 3D holo-map of the building as Andrew landed near him. "If the beams are removed it collapses onto a central point. Here." He pointed to the exact location where the building would collapse.
"If you and get him there I can incapacitate him long enough for you to bring the building down on him." Andrew said pointing to the convergence point.
"Alright…" Aqualad said looking to the crimson hooded hero "… Thank you."
"No problem," Andrew replied with a nod and a smile "Just get him in place and I'll take care of the rest." He took off toward the center of the room where he landed and delved deep into his inner world before he found the sword he was looking for. It was an unnamed slab of jagged rock that followed a concept of 'sword', though unnamed its history was nothing to be laughed at; this was the sword of Hercules that he used to kill the Hydra.
Quickly he recited his aria bringing the ancient sword into existence.
"My Soul was Born of Steel."
He opened his eyes and pulled the sword to his side, not feeling the weight due to his enhanced strength he worked hard to train. As soon as the beast stood on the white chalk "X" that had been drawn by Robin he unleashed one of his original techniques.
"Mugen Tsubame Gaeshi!" He whispered as he brought down the massive granite blade. In an instant Blockbuster was covered in hundreds of hair thin cuts all over his body before he kneeled down in pain. "Now!" Andrew shouted.
Within seconds the group destroyed the pillars, thereby compromising the structural integrity of the building and as the group ran out of the building a few well-placed exploding disks from Robin detonated sending the building collapsing onto the beast.
Andrew fell trying to escape the falling debris, he was exhausted from using that technique, but he was helped out by Conner and Karen who both picked him up under his arms and dragged him from the rubble. When they got out Andrew saw the rest of the Renegades waiting for them with two unconscious people.
"Well," Andrew groaned "That was fun."
"Once again…" Aqualad said this time looking to the rest of the Renegades "…Thank you."
Before any of them could respond Kid Flash spoke up pointing to the moon "Guys we have company."
The now large group looked and saw Superman descending who was quickly followed by most of the Justice League, some of the more notable heroes being Red Tornado, Captain Marvel, Martian Manhunter, Zatara, Captain Atom, Hawkman and Hawkwoman, Green Lantern, Batman, Aquaman, Black Canary, Flash and Green Arrow.
"Looks like someone called in the cavalry, though you're all a bit late aren't ya." Cole said in his ghost form.
Batman looked at the clones before saying "Are they what I think they are?"
Both Conner and Karen walked forward facing Superman before they announced one after another.
"I'm Superman's clone."
"I'm Supergirl's clone."
This got mixed reactions amongst the league but the Man of Steel glared at them and Andrew forced himself forward on his sore legs, before facing him silently and one of the orbs in the chain floated off and shifted into a bow and a red arrow materialized into his hand before he knocked it and pointed it at Superman before speaking.
"I don't care who the fuck you are but you better fucking stop glaring now or I'll send this right at you, I may be exhausted but I have enough left in me to beat your ass into the ground or send Gáe Bulg here right at all of you." His eyes narrowed as he nodded to the red arrow.
This got him shocked reactions from the League because of the blatant threat, a look of disbelief from the young heroes because he was threatening Superman! In his injured state and wasn't even flinching. But from the two clones he got a grateful look because of his support towards them.
Andrew stood taller as he addressed the heroes in front of him. "My name is Paradox, the Herald of Chaos, the Harbinger of Order, the Monster of God, but more importantly I'm the leader of the Renegades and these two are under my protection and we will fight against all of you to keep them safe." His speech seemed to rattle the big man in front of him as the rest of his team took up positions behind them.
Batman didn't seem to be interested as he looked at Robin "Start talking."
"Well we saw you guys were busy, so we thought it would be a good idea to investigate Cadmus on our own. These guys seemed to have the same idea." Robin waved his hand to the Renegades, who were behind Andrew and he still had Superman at arrow point.
Andrew looked over "Hello Mr. Tall, Dark, and Brooding."
That got some chuckles from Kid Flash and the Flash before Batman turned his bat-glare on them.
Robin continued "It turns out that they've been doing some illegal cloning other than Superman and Supergirl." He turned to where Guardian and Jim Harper were standing awkwardly standing next to eachother. The League was shocked by this considering that Guardian and Jim Harper were supposed to be the same person. Slung over Jim's shoulder was an unconscious Roy Harper.
Green Arrow took a tentative step towards the Harpers. "Jim is that?"
"It's Roy." Jim confirmed. "Cadmus has been keeping us on ice for the last three years. Three years we can't get back."
Oliver Queen was at a loss for words. "Then who's the Roy that…"
"He's still Roy." Kid Flash said in defense of his friend. "The Roy we've fought together with is still Roy. Even if he's a Cadmus clone."
"Who are you?' Batman's attention shifted elsewhere As Jim and Green Arrow talked. He was eyeing the Renegades suspiciously especially after paradox's threat towards Superman. His bat-glare was on full blast.
Andrew raised an eyebrow. "If you're going for intimidating it's not working." Which was true he had seen and faced worse than a glaring man in a bat suit. "As I said before, I'm Paradox, this is Raiden, Shade, Seraph, and…" Maverick cut him off walking up towards Batman.
"It's Maverick, little herbivore." He said showing off his razor sharp teeth with a predatory grin.
"Sorry about the building we're not from around here." Andrew tried to sound as sincere as possible; he did feel a bit bad at destroying the building.
"You saved people and revealed the illegal workings of a company that the League has been suspicious of for months. No apology needed." Flash assured
"Thanks." Andrew stepped forward but Batman put a hand to his chest.
"We're not done."
"We aren't now are we? I guess you're absolutely right. I want to know why I've never heard of any of you in my life, so where are we?"
Clark seemed to be thinking about something. "Paradox, I think we're dealing with something similar to the Overlord incident." Andrew's eyes widened at that.
"You mean we traveled through the multiverse again? That would explain a lot." He turned to Batman. "I think we might be here a while." Batman's eyes narrowed at that but before he could say anything Robin spoke up.
"So, what now?"
"Cadmus will be investigated, but let's make one thing clear. End results aside, we are not happy. You hacked Justice League systems, disobeyed direct orders, and endangered lives. You will not be doing this again." Batman told Robin as he leveled a glance at Kid Flash and Aqualad so they understood that the order also included them.
Conner got pissed off by him. "I have no clue what your problem is!" he growled out before pointing at the young heroes. "They Risked Their Lives For People Who They Didn't Know! If That Doesn't Matter Then What Does?!" Connor roared as his more animalistic features appeared before his voice went calm and cold. "Buildings can be rebuilt but lives lost can never be regained."
"Maverick is right." Aqualad stepped forward. "We won't stop."
"Aqualad, stand down." Aquaman order, but Aqualad shook his head 'no'.
"Apologies, my king, but no. We did good work here tonight, the work you trained us to do. Together with our new friends we forged something powerful, important." Aqualad told the ruler of Atlantis, but this was meant to be heard by all of the present members of the Justice League.
"If this is about your treatment at the hall, the three of you-"
"The ten of us." Kid Flash said including the clones and the Renegades as well as cutting off what Flash was going to say. "And no it's not."
"Batman, we're ready to use what you taught us, or why teach us at all?" Robin argued.
"You know, we may not have the resources but you can join us if you want to branch out on your own away from your mentors. You know as a team." Paradox didn't even flinch as the aforementioned mentors glared at him. "Suck it up and Shut up Men." Andrew said to them "They made up their minds and they've impressed me."
"It's simple," Superboy said "Get on board or get out of our way."
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
"This cave was the original secret sanctuary Of the Justice League. We're calling it into service again. Since you three are determined to fight the good fight together, you'll do it on League terms. Red Tornado volunteered to live here and be your supervisor. Black Canary's in charge of training. I will deploy you on missions." Batman explained standing inside Mount Justice, a hollowed out mountain near Happy Harbor, Rhode Island, which was being assembled into a base by various members of the league.
"Real missions?" Robin asked, unsure if Batman could be fully trusted after the fiasco with them becoming 'real' members of the League.
"Yes, but covert." Batman told them. The Flash zoomed up behind Wally.
"The League will still handle the obvious stuff. There's a reason we have these big targets on our chests." He gestured to the lightning bolt on his chest.
"But Cadmus proves that the bad guys are getting smarter. Batman needs a team that can operate on the sly." Aquaman explained.
"The eleven of you will be that team." Batman said
"Cool!" Robin nodded. "Wait. Eleven?"
"I'm here!" a perky voice rushed out. "Sorry we're late."
Behind them the Martian Manhunter stepped from the shadows with a girl by his side.
She was a green-skinned girl that looked around their age with amber eyes, shoulder-length red hair, and freckles on her cheeks. Her outfit consisted of a short-sleeved white top with a red X on it, along with blue skirt, cape, gloves, and ankle high boots.
"This is the Martian Manhunter's niece Miss Martian." Batman clarified.
"Um, Hi." She waved shyly.
"Liking this gig more every minute." Wally whispered to Robin. "Welcome aboard. I'm Kid Flash. That's Robin, Aqualad. It's cool if you forget their names." He gave him most charming smile.
"I'm honored to be included." She smiled.
"Recognized: A01, A02, A03, A04, A05, A06, A07." The Zeta-Beam Tunnel came to life.
The assembled heroes of the team watched as the teleportation device popped out the Renegades and the two clones.
Andrew was dressed in black cargo pants, grey sneakers, a white shirt, and a crimson hoodie.
Arthur wore navy blue jeans, blue and white shoes, and a black shirt with a gold lion emblazoned on the front.
Cole wore dark navy blue jeans, white shoes, and a black shirt under a red Chinese shirt.
Clark wore a pair of faded jeans, red and grey shoes, and a grey button up shirt with a black cloth vest over top of it.
Connor had on a pair of camo cargo pants, black combat boots, and a black muscle shirt that showed the tattoos on his shoulder, the left one had Raptor on it while the right had Naturae on it.
Karen, one of the two newest members of the Renegades, wore a white blouse and blue hip hugger jeans with blue flip-flop sandals.
Conner, the other newest member of the Renegades, wore dark blue fatigue pants with a large buckled-belt, dark-brown combat boots, and a long sleeved black shirt with fingerless gloves.
"Sup." Andrew lazily waved to the group assembled before them.
๑ஜ۩۞۩ஜ๑
Here is the new power listing for the members of the Renegades that are going to be in the story. I know I cut out Leonè from the main cast in this rewrite, the reason for that is that I wasn't sure on how to write her and to me every time I wrote he she sounded like she didn't have too much of a voice. I also added limits to Andrew's powers so he isn't overpowered anymore… well too overpowered.

Author's Note
Well everyone I hope that everyone enjoyed the first chapter of the rewrite, I know it didn't seem different from the first two chapter of the original draft of the story but it will change along the time that the original chapter five comes around because I've had a different idea of what universe some of the Renegades should enter first in their attempt to get home.
So in the immortal words of Atlas and NeonZangetsu….
…Review, Would You Kindy? Seriously I would appreciate some feedback even if it's negative review I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong or what I can do to improve the story rewrite.
