He had a bad feeling from the moment he landed. This trip had felt different from all the others. Traveling through time happened in the blink of an eye, you press a button and suddenly you're in the past; this time had gone by almost exactly like all the others, the key word being 'almost'. His mother's machine had spluttered for a split second, an uneasy shiver went through his entire body in less than a microsecond, but he'd felt it.
When he heard a splash his fears grew. The time machine was programmed with very advanced mapping equipment that was responsible for not dropping him off into the emptiness of outer space, it compensated for the earth's orbit around the sun and found the planet's exact location at the requested time. This mapping equipment also made sure to drop him of in solid land. The fact that he had been plopped down into the ocean was not good news.
Trunks sighed and popped the top off his time machine. The fresh salty smell of the seawater assaulted his nose and he took a long breath of fresh air. It was before noon (the sun had yet to reach its peak). The waters were calm and blue as the time machine bobbed placidly like any normal sea-faring vessel.
He unceremoniously dived under the water's surface, circulating the lower half of the time machine. Finding what he was looking for he quickly pressed down on a square button just to the right of one of the four pegs that sprouted from the machine's side. Pressing the square caused it to pop outwards, revealing two smaller buttons; one red and one blue. Pressing them in a pattern there was an instant puff of smoke before his time machine disappeared and Trunks picked up the little floating capsule.
Putting the capsule in its case and replacing it in his jacket's pocket he dried himself with his ki. Trunks stretched his senses out for any familiar powers.
What he felt shocked him. There were an immense amount of powers that corresponded with the ki of an average human sprinkled with a few hundred above average power levels that probably corresponded to extremely skilled martial artists; everything up until now pointed to this being the earth he had wanted to be in.
The problem was the two-hundred or so unusual powers he felt. Many of them were abnormally high ki signals that couldn't belong to a non ki-aware human. The highest of these wasn't even close to Frieza levels so there wasn't too much need to panic unless they were masking their strength. What really worried Trunks was the number of power levels that he could simply not read. These weren't like the androids, the androids energy source simply couldn't be sensed; he could sense these energies but they were so unconventional and… bizarre that he wasn't sure if he could call it ki.
Well, at least I know for sure that this isn't my planet. He couldn't feel any familiar ki energies on this planet. He didn't know were or when he'd been dumped but he was definitely not going to find out by just floating around. He locked on the nearest ki signature and blasted off.
It was just another normal day in Metropolis; the streets were busy with the chatter of people running errands from building to building, the cars whizzed by in the highway, the Daily Planet was full of shouting and rapid fire typing. Also the city was being attacked by someone.
Attacked by Bizarro of all people. He usually wasn't inclined to bouts of random destruction all by his lonesome, so the newly expanded Justice League knew this had to be a diversion. Currently Supergirl, Stargirl and S.T.R.I.P.E. were trying to contain the behemoth while Mr. Terrific investigated from the watchtower, trying to decipher what Bizarro could be drawing attention away from. At the same time Mr. Terrific was overseeing Superman and Green Lantern in a space mission while Flash and Captain Atom took care of a nuclear meltdown near Romania.
The Thanagarian invasion had shown that a seven member league wasn't enough. This newly expanded Justice League of over fifty members had been established just a short few months ago and they were still working out the kinks. Everything was very new and everybody was having trouble adjusting to living in a giant space station. They had yet to develop solid group tactics and everyone simply trained at their leisure but Mr. Terrific and J'onn were preparing a training schedule for just that purpose. Nobody was sure how effective the league would be against a major threat as it was; they would find out when the time came.
"Keep it up girls!" called the voice of Pat Dugan, also known as S.T.R.I.P.E. He was currently working the people running out of the surrounding buildings, making sure they abandoned the area before things got too serious.
Supergirl and Stargirl were doing their best to subdue Bizarro without causing too much collateral damage. The pasty white skinned doppelganger crashed into the ground from a punch to the sternum by Supergirl. The concrete around him crumbled as he created a small crater on impact. Shambling up slowly he was hit by a ray of pure energy from Stargirl's staff. He was thrown back and crashed through the window of a bakery.
The two heroines hovered above the bakery, neither talking as they waited for Bizarro to come out. They needed to drag this along as much as they could so S.T.R.I.P.E. could clear the area.
The roof of the bakery burst open and Bizarro flew out, none the worse for wear. Supergirl nodded at Stargirl and they went on the offensive, driving him away from the taller buildings. Supergirl gave him an uppercut to the face, sending him flying up to the sky. She followed him up and drew back to punch him but the dull eyed Bizarro surprised her with a kick to the chin, sending her crashing down to the streets below.
Stargirl sent multiple blasts from her staff, some of which Bizarro dodge and some of which clipped him on the shoulders. He flew towards her and accosted Stargirl with his heat vision. She flew around dodging the rays while sending her own blasts.
Bizzaro was blindsided by two explosive missiles. They didn't have any affect on him, but they did stall him enough for Stargirl to regain her bearings and for Supergirl to tackle him out of the air.
"I guess this guy's out of my league" said S.T.R.I.P.E. floating up to Stargirl. She gave him a half smile.
"You'll just have to get used to crowd duty dad" she pointed toward some stragglers who were curious to see a fight, looking from around a very tall office building.
As S.T.R.I.P.E flew off to usher away the group of people with cameras and young boys who really shouldn't be alone a stray ray of Bizarro's heat vision cleaved unevenly through the building they were using as cover. The support beams were melted off by the intensity of Bizarro's ray and the same building that provided them protection was now going to fall on top of the dozen or so petrified citizens.
This was bad, he couldn't do anything and he didn't have enough time to call Supergirl over through the league communicator. He flew towards the yelling people at top speed, calling for help through the comm. even if it was useless. The building was going to fall on them any second and the only thing he could think of doing was creating a human shield over as many of the frightened people as he could. He waited for the blow of the falling skyscraper to come and wondered if his armor was strong enough to withstand a falling building, he wasn't Superman after all.
He didn't have to worry, as just when the building was to impact them he felt nothing. Looking up he saw that it was floating in midair. He wanted to thank Supergirl but didn't see her anywhere, and he decided now was the time to get these people out of here. Hastily he turned to them.
"Leave. Now." that was all he needed to say as they ran as fast as they could, thanking him before scampering off.
Looking back he saw as the falling building was floated down gently on the floor. He didn't see anyone coming out from under the toppled building. Forcing his attention to the fight he saw that Supergirl and Stargirl were still doing battle with Bizarro, neither of them could have done this. It must have been a telekinetic league member who had come to help.
Trunks had flown for only a few minutes before he found a city where he sensed some high ki signals. He came up to the fight that was raging on. He could only gauge the ki of two of the fighters, the two with the capes. From the robot he sensed an average human ki, which just left him very confused. The girl with the staff had one of those ki signals that he simply could not understand, he knew it was there but didn't know how to even begin to comprehend it.
He watched the fight between the two teen girls and the weird looking man who while looking human had skin almost as white as Frieza's. He didn't know if he should interfere; it might have looked like the girls were the good guys, but for all he knew the pasty zombie was a hero. After all, the androids had proven that you couldn't judge based on appearance.
He flew over to a rooftop and continued watching the conflict, not knowing what to do. When he saw the collapsing building he knew he had to intervene. He brought his hand forward in the line of sight of the falling building, he didn't need to do this but it helped him concentrate, he levitated the building and moved it away from the cowering pedestrians, laying it down nearby. Everyone was too engrossed in their fighting to notice, but Trunks didn't know there was an eye in the sky watching.
Mr. Terrific saw the mysterious youth approach the battle. He wasn't affiliated with the league and he didn't look like any superhero he remembered from the league database. He went to warn S.T.R.I.P.E. of this stranger when the building began collapsing. Mr. Terrific quickly looked to the screen at his left and saw that Flash still wasn't available. Supergirl couldn't receive the warning in time to do anything and he didn't have enough time to contact anyone and teleport them to the site in time to stop the structure from collapsing. He prepared for the inevitable and was about to give the command to reserve an infirmary room for S.T.R.I.P.E. and send a scavenging team when the building suddenly stopped in mid-fall.
Levitation. He thought as his eyes immediately went to the prime suspect. The purple haired teenager was holding his hand out and making small hand motions that the building responded to.
"S.T.R.I.P.E. there's a possible meta-human half a mile north of your location. He stopped the building from falling but that doesn't tell us anything. Approach him with caution, I'm sending reinforcements for Bizarro" without even waiting for an answer he went back to checking satellite images all over Metropolis for suspicious behavior. He needed to find out who exactly set Bizarro free on the area and their motives.
S.T.R.I.P.E. scanned the area for this Meta and found him standing over a building, looking at the fight. He definitely didn't look like anyone from around there, though he was dressed in clothes fit for a teenager so he probably wasn't from some forgotten realm.
Shining Night and Red Tornado were teleported next to him.
"I'll assist them with Bizzaro" Red Tornado said before flying off. The girls had already gotten the upper hand over Bizarro with teamwork; they would be able to secure him in no time with Tornado's help.
"All right Knight, lets go see what this guy's all about" Shining Knight nodded and they both flew in the direction of the lavender haired stranger, Winged Victory neighing as he spread his wings wide and glided through the air with Shining Night mounted on his back.
Trunks saw the robot and the medieval looking guy riding the winged horse approach him and he stayed calm. They must have seen him move that building and where trying to see if he was a threat. If it came to blows he knew he could take them easily so he simply kept himself alert and looked directly at the two approaching figures.
The two heroes landed on the rooftop and silently inspected Trunks. Trunks in turn saw into their hearts and gave a sigh of relief. The Knight was very noble, his heart was as pure as Goku and Gohan's had been. The robot wasn't a robot; it was a human wearing an exo-suit. He had to give the person credit; it was much more impressive than the old Capsule Corp ones his mother had shown him.
"Hello there" S.T.R.I.P.E. said guardedly. Shining Night though forgot all about trepidation when he noticed Trunks carried a sword on his back.
"A swordsman! Judging from the hilt alone it is magnificently crafted. May I see it?" he had judged the young man in front of him and ascertained that he was good hearted, so as a consummate warrior he wanted to compare the craftsmanship of their weapons.
Trunks looked startled; S.T.R.I.P.E.'s disbelieving look could almost be seen through his armor.
Shining Night looked back at S.T.R.I.P.E. "A knight knows the difference between the eyes of a madman and a noble warrior. I can tell he means us no harm" S.T.R.I.P.E. was very skeptical of the knight's new power but Trunks understood; the knight had seen into his heart just like he had done.
"All right" he said. S.T.R.I.P.E. turned to him cautiously while Shining Knight dismounted his Pegasus, wanting to get a good look at the sword. "I don't mean you guys any harm" he added while he reached for his sword.
S.T.R.I.P.E. was very nervous as the stranger pulled out his sword, a longsword. Trunks unsheathed the blade and held it in front of him so that the knight could observe it.
Shining Night was very impressed. It was longer and more elaborately done than his own. It was obviously meant to be wielded two handed; the hilt was too long for a one handed sword. Said hilt was colored black with a golden colored pommel, leading up to an equally golden hued cross guard with the ends curved slightly upwards. The blade itself was about three feet long and looked impossibly sharp.
"Impressive" he said. The only weakness he saw was that it couldn't be wielded one handed like his own sword. "May I hold it?"
S.T.R.I.P.E. was ready to veto that idea when Stargirl and Supergirl landed on the roof. Before he could question them Stargirl spoke.
"Tornado took him away for questioning to see who put him up to this, we're here to back you guys up" she turned to look at Trunks and thanked god that her costume hid her blush well. The same couldn't be said for Supergirl who was lucky no one was looking at her before she got herself under control. This guy was holding a sword out so a fight was imminent and they had to be alert if he was telekinetic like Mr. Terrific said.
"I ask again, may I wield it" Shining Knight repeated to snap Trunks out of his observation of the two newcomers. From a closer distance he couldn't help but tell that they were very attractive. He locked eyes with the knight.
"Sorry, I can't. It's a lot heavier than it looks" he told him. He doubted that any of them could wield the Z-Sword; originally he'd had to be a super saiyan to even lift it up. He was able to wield the sword as if it was an extension of his very being only after hours of training in the Supreme Kai's planet.
He remembered those twenty –four hours of training while they waited for Babidi and Dabura to reach their next destination. His rage was still coursing through his veins and he was high on having ascended past a super saiyan, he wanted to exact his revenge on those bastards immediately. He had no doubt that he would have been able to kill Dabura without the sword, but he was happy to have listened to the Supreme Kai. Training to use the sword in his base form had strengthened that form and both his super saiyan levels. After that training he was as strong as a super saiyan without having to transform into one.
He put the sword back in its sheath and an awkward silence came over them. S.T.R.I.P.E. wanted to laugh at how ridiculous this was, they didn't have time to be standing around with some mysterious person who he was starting to dislike. He could tell his daughter was affected by this boy and he didn't like that one bit.
"Who are you" he came out and said after seconds of silence by everyone.
"My name is Trunks" he said in a meek voice. He hesitated for a second but decided that telling these people would only help him. "I'm almost completely certain that I'm from another dimension"
Before their reaction could graduate from the raised eyebrows they were currently giving him small beeps were heard. The four heroes went to their ears were a small earpiece could be seen. With his saiyan hearing Trunks could pick up what was being said trough their communication devices.
"I'm teleporting all of you and the newcomer to the watchtower immediately…" the voice had an urgent tone to it. A second before that statement Trunks felt a weird sensation. It felt similar to the Kai's instantaneous movement. He got the nauseating feeling of being in a million places at once and wondered how Goku could get used to instant transmission (a move he was kicking himself for not learning). When his vision refocused and he got his churning stomach under control he was viewing a blue tinted room. He and the four heroes were standing on a platform with a few dozen pads on the floor, bright fluorescent lights shining directly above the pads. Everybody else began to walk out of the platform so he did the same. Shining Knight whispered something to his horse and Winged Victory gave an almost imperceptible nod before walking away. A winged horse in a space station (Trunks had just noticed the view of earth from the window) was a ridiculous sight even to a person like him.
A very tall green man walked up to them. He was wearing a blue cape and had a red X crossing his chest.
"What gives with the urgency J'onn" said Flash, who had been teleported in from Romania.
"Flash I need you to tell The Atom all you know about dimensional rips" he said in a no nonsense monotone. "Come with me" he said this to everyone but was looking pointedly at Trunks.
He looked around and saw that the other people were as confused as he was. He followed the big guy into a control room where a dark skinned man with some black t-shaped face paint was typing away at a computer with a map of the world. Trunks got a shock looking at the map, he knew this planet had to be earth but it looked completely different from his own. His earth was just one huge piece of land with islands scattered around. The only thing this planet had in common with his world was the ice caps; everything was all separate and stretched out, it was weird.
"What's this about J'onn?" voiced a confused Supergirl. She liked the new guy a lot but even she wouldn't be crazy enough to bring him to the watchtower without making sure he was a good guy.
"We need to move quick before the problem grows out of hand" he spoke without really answering her question. He turned to Trunks.
"Please tell me the direction and distance of your landing spot relative to the city" the abrupt question shook Trunks off. J'onn went on the computer and put a checkpoint on a city called Metropolis. He looked back at Trunks expectantly and Trunks woke up enough to ponder the question.
"Umm I landed in the middle of the sea and had to fly about forty miles before getting to the city" he then remembered to add something very important if they wanted to pinpoint his landing spot. "I was heading northwest I think" J'onn nodded and pressed a button on the command center.
"Diana I need you to find Dr. Fate and meet up with Captain Atom at these coordinates" he switched to another transmitter "Atom I'm transporting you to the coast near Metropolis, Zatanna will be there. Begin your search at these coordinates" he paused to change frequencies "Aquaman if you are listening we could use your assistance. You will find league members off the coast southeast of Metropolis"
"J'onn what's with this? Why aren't you trying to find the person who sicked Bizarro on Metropolis?" asked a befuddled S.T.R.I.P.E. This mass mobilization of mystic and magic based heroes couldn't mean anything good.
Mr. Terrific stepped up to speak. "Gorilla Grodd broke into Lexcorp and stole some equipment. He's with Giganta and they are on the move away from the city"
"If you want I can put you on it" J'onn said it as a choice but meant it as a dismissal. S.T.R.I.P.E. grunted and went over to the teleportation pad. Shining Night decided to assist him as they joined Green Arrow and Vigilante.
J'onn was still solely focused on Trunks. "Can you tell me the circumstances of your arrival here?" from the sense of urgency Trunks could pick up from his otherwise indifferent voice he knew there was no time to consider telling the truth or not. Stargirl and Supergirl had given up on saying anything a long time ago. Supergirl had one hand under her chin while Stargirl tapped her foot impatiently waiting for answers to this whole thing.
"I was using my time machine to go back to the past" Trunks stated.
"And where is this time machine? Did you leave it in the ocean?" Trunks shook his head and pulled out his capsule case.
"I have it here" the puzzled looks he got told him they didn't have capsule technology here. "Stand back"
He opened the case and pulled out the time machine capsule. He pressed the button at the top and tossed the capsule at an empty space behind him. He forgot to warn them about the puff of smoke and so they jumped when it came. The smoke disappeared into thin air after a few seconds and there stood Trunks' time machine with its top opened up.
"Wow" was all the girls could say, not for the machine itself but for the way it was stored. J'onn was also amazed but he moved on quickly and walked up to the machine, scrutinizing it. That's when Trunks noticed something he hadn't seen when encapsulating it, the area where the generator (the device that facilitated the actual time traveling part) was looked like hardened goo, like it had been at its melting point but then cooled off. J'onn noticed this too and looked at him questioningly.
Trunks walked up to the time machine and squatted down. He felt around the melted spot. It was as cool as the rest of the time machine. He made an executive decision and plunged his fingers onto the metal a few feet away from the distorted spot and ripped at the sheet. He tore a big chunk off and put it on the floor next to him. J'onn squatted next to him with his arms crossed and the girls looked on curiously from behind.
The generator had been a metal sphere which held inside it the time machine's power source; a very rare emerald found in the stomachs of certain dinosaurs. The emerald was the only thing that could contain and conduct the immense amounts of energy needed to travel back in time.
Right now the generator looked like something out of a Dali painting, flattened and with the consistency of rubber instead of a hard metal. Trunks held it in his hands, eyes wide at the implications.
"I-i-its not supposed to look like that" Trunks wracked his brain for any explanation for what happened to the generator. Whatever it was he knew that these people were in the process of figuring it out.
"What was that component supposed to do?" Trunks looke up from his blob of rubber to the green face of the Martian Manhunter.
"It was the energy source" he stood up from his crouching position and kept looking at the floppy little chew toy. "What do you think is happening?" He asked setting his jaw.
J'onn turned his back on Trunks and went back to the computers. Trunks narrowed his eyes but then J'onn began speaking."Three seconds before you arrived someone caused a tear in time and space. We couldn't localize it but we knew it was there. If it is left unheeded this tear will continue growing and we don't know what consequences might befall us"
"So someone caused a tear in this universe and somehow I got sucked into it?" It didn't make much sense but Trunks had never been one for theory and abstract concepts. He was a very capable engineer thanks to his mother and had even begun to make improvements on some capsule designs in the precious months in between Cell and Babidi, but laying down the groundwork and making theoretical discoveries was something he had not inherited from his mother.
"Couldn't it be Grodd?" Supergirl supplied.
J'onn shook his head "Grodd took nothing of consequence from Lexcorp. He was a diversion. If I had to theorize who wanted to take advantage of Superman's absence…"
"Luthor" Stargirl and Supergirl said simultaneously.
"What will you do to fix the tear?" Trunks wanted to know any way in which he could help. And return to my universe. He added as an afterthought.
"We do not know, if there is something we can do we will find out soon" J'onn's eyes unfocused for a few seconds and he got a faraway look. "Right" he said abruptly. "May I take this time machine to be inspected?"
Trunks nodded "I'll show you how it works" he encapsulated it and de-capsulated it once to show J'onn how it worked. Encapsulating it again he passed it to the green behemoth.
"I offer you our hospitality. It's the least we can do" Trunks thought the offer through, but he really had no choice. He knew nothing of this planet. He only needed to ask one question.
"Do you have any food?"
He tried to not look like a pig while stuffing his face in front of the two ladies who were sitting with him on the table. He hadn't eaten anything substantial since a day back and so he was fighting a losing battle with his saiyan appetite. The space station had a food court to die for, a saiyan's dream. In between bites he talked with the girls about this world.
"Superman sounds just like Goku" Trunks mused, he'd been here for twenty minutes listening to this planets history from these two girls. Supergirl was the more lively and tomboyish of the two, she was the one who talked the most about this world and told him a little about every hero who walked in through the doors. Stargirl was more quiet and serious though she did add a quip here and there to Supergirl's narrative. Trunks didn't speak much, intent on eating, but he was a very good listener. This world was weird. Everything in his world was based on ki and martial arts, it was about becoming stronger to face and kill stronger enemies. Here the enemies were almost like a community, and most of them weren't even super strong. With all he'd heard about these villains though he knew that just being powerful in this universe was nothing, you needed to be smart and resourceful to deal with all the things that could be thrown at you. The stories of the colorful villains were almost funny if some of them weren't so horrifying.
"Hey Trunks, tell us a little about yourse- your world" Stargirl received a look from Supergirl for the slip up. The two had silently agreed to a competition for the mysterious purple haired youth.
Trunks paused his well mannered but super speeded engulfing of rice and pork. He was pleasantly surprised that the girls didn't look too appalled with his eating habits. They had been a bit shocked at the start but then seemed to accept it as if they were used to it (they were).
"It was called earth too, but all the land was one big continent. There wasn't much internal conflict from what my mother told me, but it made up for it with all the outside threats" Trunks' only experience with an earth untouched by androids had been those few weeks after the Cell Games he'd stayed in the past. He chuckled lightly "Actually, my father was going to destroy the earth when he first got there" This got the desired reaction as Supergirl chocked on her sandwich.
Over the next ten minutes Trunks gave an abridged story of his life. He talked a little about Saiyans and Frieza. Most of his time was spent talking about the androids and his trips to the past, as well as his most recent struggles.
"H-h-he blew up the earth?" Trunks didn't know witch one of them asked the question as he was staring intently at his plate. He had been very vague about Cell and Frieza so they hadn't known what those two could do, simply that they were evil and had been killed. The recent events with Babidi though he did go into detail.
"Yes. The Supreme Kai teleported me to the realm of the Kais before he did and gave me this sword" He nodded to the Z-sword strapped to his back. The girls were still masticating the whole planet destruction thing. The only people they knew who could do something like that were Amazo and Mr. Mxyzptlk. Not even Darkseid could do something like blow up a planet by himself.
"What happened after that?" Supergirl didn't want to think that Trunks did what she thought he did.
"I trained with the sword for a day. They needed more energy to resurrect Buu so they were traveling to another planet in a solar system nearby. When they reached the planet we teleported there and I killed them" The look that flashed through Trunks' faces was that of a cold blooded killer, a true Saiyan warrior. "The Supreme Kai took Buu's egg and I decided to go live in the other timeline. There was nothing left for me where I was."
The looks on the girls faces made Trunks realize what he had admitted to. "Listen, I know you guy are against killing. I'm not too fond of it myself. But in my world it was the only option we had against things like the androids"
"I understand" Supergirl assured him. "From what you told us you didn't have much of a choice, it was a last resort" Trunks decided not to mention his killing of Frieza's henchmen. He had no qualms about killing people who deserved it, but he would be respectful of their laws as long as he stayed there.
Which in a few minutes he'd find out would be forever.
The Atom walked through the doors of the JL food court. He searched it with his eyes before they fell on the three teenagers sitting at a far table. He made eye contact with them and motioned them to follow.
"I hope they give us some straight answers" Stargirl said while standing up. Trunks and Supergirl followed. The Atom led them to the command center, where there were more people than last time. Wonder Woman, Dr. Fate, Zatanna and Captain Atom were talking with J'onn. Dr. Fate and Zatanna looked particularly drained and exhausted. The Flash was slightly apart from them and he waved when he saw The Atom leading the three to the group.
Everyone turned and again all eyes were on Trunks. Zatanna looked at him appraisingly and Wonder Woman was sizing him up. Captain Atom had a neutral look, Flash had his constant half-smile and Dr. Fate had… a mask on. Trunks had gotten used to it by now so he simply stood with his hands in his pockets and tried not to blink.
"So J'onn what was up?" Supergirl asked while folding her arms.
"Ray is going to inform me right now" J'onn stated.
The Atom nodded at J'onn. "There was a dimensional rip right around were this kid said it was. I don't know how someone could create something like that but we're investigating. The rip was growing at a considerable rate but Zatanna and Dr. Fate were able to stop it."
"So that's it?" Stargirl interrupted.
Ray Palmer held his palm up "I wasn't finished. They were able to stop it growing but the rip is like a wound. It'll heal in time but until then it'll continue bleeding."
"And that means that more people may appear through the rip, like me." Trunks said in realization.
The Atom nodded. And J'onn took it from there.
"Contact the world governments and restrict that area. We should have constant vigilance on the area so that we can react to anything that comes out of the tear" J'onn turned his back to them "Do you have any estimates to how long it will take to close?"
"We don't have an idea right now. We'd have to observe the tear for a few days to measure the rate that its closing at" Said The Atom.
"Wait, what about me. How can I get back home?" Trunks asked before everyone dispersed.
"I'm afraid that you'll be stuck here" intoned Dr. Fate's ominous voice.
I've always wanted to crossover DBZ and Justice League, so this is going to be my attempt. Note that this isn't the comics universe but the animated universe JL. I'm not really sure where it's heading but the plot wont follow the JLU plot except for in a few points. There will be DBZ villains appearing here and one DBZ character will join Trunks though that will probably be much later.
I definitely would appreciate a Beta so anyone who would like to volunteer contact me.
