It has been many years since the one known as 'Our leader' took over the world. The UnderGround Project was a huge success. We still protect the world from evil.

But there was one event that we must mention. Ever since it happened, we could not deny it. A strange feeling that somehow everything was going to change. This change came in the form of the discovery of Alex Mann. There was something about him we knew was different. We could feel it. He became our connection to the 'Rebel Alliance'.

We were not sure whether to trust this Alliance. They did go against 'Our Ruler' or 'Our Leader', but they were not protectors of the Earth. They only looked out for themselves. They seemed so distant to us.

Soon, the change began. Strange reports of an infection spreading amongst the 'villains' locked away in the chambers of the UnderGround scared some of us. That was when we knew, the time of great change is beginning…

"Batman? How is it going up there?"

"Fine, Superman. We've almost cleaned up the streets."

"Batman, there is something I must tell you…"

"What is it?"

"It's Joker. I think he has the infection…"

-Pause-

"Batman? Are you there?"

"We have to stop this infection, Clark. I don't know how, but we're going to do it…"

"I'll call Alex…"

"Alex! Quit fooling around!"

"I'll be fine Rikki. Just let me get this one!" Alex climbed onto the roof.

"Alex! Didn't your mother ever tell you not to try 'surfing' on the top of a moving vehicle?" Alex didn't answer. "Alex, you're not listening to a word I'm saying, are you."

"What was that, Rikki? I wasn't listening."

The robot was gaining on them fast.

"You have been ordered to stop the vehicle. It contains persons that go against the laws of Our Ruler. Please pull over or we will fire without warning." It said.

"Hey! Tin can!" said Alex. "Fire this!" and he threw an explosive at the robot.

The bot exploded, sending chunks of metal everywhere.

"Brandon, stop the bus." said Rikki.

The bus came to a sudden stop. Alex lost his balance and fell backwards on onto the front window.

"Alex four, Brandon two." He said. "Can we find another one?"

"Alex, are you out of your mind? You could have gotten yourself killed!" said Rikki.

"And you didn't tell me this the many times I fought Dr.X why?" Alex climbed back in the window ("You could have just used the door!" said Brandon).

"I did tell you!" Rikki said. "See, I told you. You never listen…"

"Alex, phone!" said Ginder.

"Who is it?"

"One of your buddies from the UnderGround. Says it's urgent."
