Before I start the story (at long last), let me say a few things first:

First of all: This story, DC wise, takes place in a timeline somewhat based on the Cartoon Network TV series, "Young Justice". This story will take place in the year 2017, after the events of the show. I will occasionally have some of the characters fill in the gap, but rest assured, the Light organization is no longer a problem.

Secondly: There will be characters from other TV shows. I will try to fit their history in to this timeline as well as I can.

Third: I will also add events from the cartoon "The Legion of Superheroes." onto the story.

Finally: I will eventually have two Co-Authors help me on this one.

Now that that's over LET'S FINALLY START THE STORY OF A LIFETIME! (I hope.)

Exobytten Part One: another day.

In a dark and horrible future.

Narration (Lex Luthor): My greatest triumph was at hand; The final campaign in my long war against Superman. While his powers had drained from constant battle, sending him into space to recharge from the Earth's yellow sun, I struck. But my... obsession had blinded me to the real threat... to Earth's true enemy.

We see a battle field in ruins, here and there you can see the dead bodies of several heroes and villains. Including those of Batman and Wonder Woman.

Superman weakened again by kryptonite that was stuffed in the mouth of the now dead Wonder Woman.

Lex Luthor: (approaching Superman, who is on the ground) So how do you feel now, alien? Beaten...(taking a spear from his back, the tip of it made out of pure kryptonite) by a mere man.

Superman: (weak, and in a voice that sounded not like his own) No... you've lost... everything...

Lex: No, I have defeated you (stabbing him with the spear and twisting it inside the alien's body) ME! LEX LUTHOR! (Superman dies)(Luthor stands back to proclaim his victory, only to see Brainiac's war fleet fill the skies.)

We now move to the present day Watchtower, as the Lex Luthor from that future continues telling his story to The present day Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman.

Future Luthor: Brainiac had returned. For years, he's been stealing the powers of Earth's protectors, but we were to busy fighting amongst ourselves to see the danger. (pauses then continues) … With you three dead, Brainiac quickly eliminated the remaining heroes and villains that were still alive; the lucky ones... died fighting. Finally, I alone survived; a rat in the walls of the Brainiac construct. I have traveled back through time to warn you; this my past, but your future… and it means the end of humanity so together (aiming his open palm towards earth) we must CHANGE IT. (there is suddenly a visible disturbance in Earth's atmosphere. Though no one on earth is able to see it everyone in the watchtower can.)

Batman: (approaching him) What have you done Luthor?

Future Luthor: Given you a fighting chance.

Batman: (To Superman and Wonder Woman) He's lying; it's some kind of trap. (to the future Luthor) Why should we trust you?

Future Luthor: Because if you don't… (begins to smile evilly at them but it slowly changes to a more kind, noble smile.) Earth. is. Doomed. I've stolen Brainiac's Exobytes and released them into Earth's atmosphere. They hold the very powers of all of the heroes and villains of my time, and will bestow them on anyone they contact. The Exobytes will create a new breed of superhuman to fight Brainiac's invasion. You must teach them to use their new abilities for they must be on the front line for the coming battle… or my grim future… will become your own. (Lex then teleports out of the watch tower)

Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman knew what to do, and began to wait for these new heroes, and possibly new villains, to rise...

Seven month have passed since that faithful day...

Martin: Well everything a-okay here!

Martin Kratt was In the arctic area where he met Blobby, y'know, the walrus. He was checking up on the Arctic Pearl (No need to be too careful after what happened with Donita, right?). And was currently playing with Blobby.

Let me explain for those who are confused. 19 year old Martin Kratt was part of a team called the Wild Kratts crew. It was made of five people: himself, his 15-year-old brother Chris, and their friends, Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy. They go around the world studying and protecting the animals that live in it. So far they have had run-ins with three villains to the creature world. Chef Gourmand, a semi-cannibal who cooks rare and endangered animals for a living. Donita Donata, a fashion designer who uses living animals for her fashion designs. And finally Zack Varmitech, a genius inventor who wishes to use the many gifts of animals to better mankind. That may seem nice but let me explain. He has a general disrespect of nature and a hatred of animals, seeing them only as tools to be turned into machines or to power his otherwise cruel technologies.

As a side note: a few weeks ago, Gourmand suffered a little accident in his kitchen and he died. And Varmitech Industries has been moved from New York to Bludhaven and has dove into the black market. Anyway...

Martin was having fun with Blobby when all of a sudden, his Creature Pod started to ring, indicating that he has received a call.

Martin: (to his little friend) Hey Blobby, I gotta take this. (He hit a button and held the creature pod to his ear like a phone.)

?: Martin.

Martin: Kitty! How have you been? (Kitty Carlo, real name Laura Wilkinson. She's Martin's girlfriend (Refer to the Wild Kratts fanfic "Wild Cat") They have been going out for a while. She is also a reserve member of the team.)

Kitty: I'm doing great actually. I'm going to be heading over to Chris is; we need to release Survivor back into the wild. (Survivor. A lion that the Kratts rescued when he was just a cub.)

Martin: Oh, right. I almost forgot about that.

Kitty: Hey, Martin... You know we've been going out for 6 months and...

Martin: hm?

Kitty: I was hoping that... for our half-year-anniversary, we could do something special.

Martin: … Right... actually I have something in mind.

Kitty: Really? What?

Martin: Kitty, I want to keep it a secret, at least until the time is right.

Kitty: Okay. Well, I gotta go. See 'ya.

Martin: yeah... goodbye Ki- Laura.

And with that he hung up. But then another call came up. It was from Aviva. He turned the Pod on and a hologram of Aviva came up.

Aviva: Martin there's a storm on its way any second, we have to go now.

Martin: Alright. (turning to Blobby) Alright Blobby, I gotta go, see you around.

Martin then turns around and heads back to the Tortuga HQ. Then suddenly he stops his entire body going numb. Then feels this unusual sense of power it did not fell enjoyable, yet it did not feel like it was supposed to torture him. It felt... neutral, in every sense of the word. But then he felt really scared when he heard this weird voice in his head. "When the time comes you must stand up for your world." Obviously that scared Martin a lot, but it didn't really bother him; he just thought he was too exhausted from playing with Blobby all day. He began to head back to the Tortuga...

Meanwhile in the African Savannah, Kitty Carlo had already arrived and was with Chris. They took about and hour-long walk to the very spot where they rescued Survivor. Everything looked exactly the same. The two let Survy Walk in front of them. They three stopped when they found the perfect spot to... say goodbye.

The two spoke to Survivor.

Chris: Well Survy... this is it...

Kitty: this is goodbye...

Kitty then bent down to Survivor's ear and spoke in a complex series of sounds Chris knew that Survy can easily understand. Chris knew she was saying goodbye. The next moment, Survy left looking back at them only once as to say good bye, then... he we was gone.

Chris: (somewhat sad) Living free, and in the wild... (he then began to smile). You know something, Kitty? I'm glad we keep doing this... protecting creatures.

Kitty: Yeah, me too. (Noticing the expression on Chris's face) Something up Chris?

Chris: I was just thinking... maybe we are meant to play an even larger role in the safety of the creature world.

Kitty: Really?

Chris: Yeah like there is something greater in store for us... (at that moment a call cam from his Creature Pod. A holoscreen came up showing the rest of the Wild Kratts crew sitting down in with safety straps on.) (the Tortuga HQ can travel from the Arctic to where Chris was at the moment in around 45 minutes.)

Aviva: Chris, Kitty, were coming to pick you up.

Chris: Okay Aviva, We'll meet up near Aardvark Town. (Aardvark Town is the name of a place where Chris and Martin found a bunch of aardvark holes.)

Aviva: We'll see you there.

Chris ended the transmission at that. Suddenly he felt numb... really numb. Then it was followed by the same sensation that Martin had back in the Arctic. Then a voice in Chris's said, "The Creatures of the world will need you more than ever."

Needless to say Chris was startled. Was that voice real or was it all in his head? And what did it mean when it said the animals of the Earth will need him, "more than ever"?

Kitty: Chris? Are you okay?

Chris: (Snapping him out of it) huh?

Kitty: Your body sort of went stiff for a second there.

Chris: I-I'm okay.

Kitty: Are you sure?

Chris: yeah, I'm fine.

Later, it was night. The two Kratt Bros. Were in their rooms in the Tortuga, talking about the sensation that they had today.

Chris: I just wish I knew what that voice really was.

Martin: You and me both Bro.

Chris: Do you think maybe... we should be careful?

Martin: I don't know Chris... I just don't know...

Chris: … Somethings coming...
