Well, this is my first Justice League fanfic, so please, be nice!!

Flash was sitting at the observation deck, slurping a mocha. A button to his right turned red and began to flash on and off. The speedster set his icy drink down and hit the button. Aquaman's face came on a screen beside the button.

"Flash, I need to speak to Superman. Now." Aquaman's expression was as icy as Flash's mocha.

"Sure, keep your fins on, be right back." Flash sped off returning a few moments later with a very sleepy, very grumpy looking Superman.


Superman placed his hands on either side of the monitor and bent over it. "What do you need, Arthur?"


At the use of his real name, Aquaman glowered at Superman. He was almost as good at that as Batman. "I have a problem. A big one."


Flash peered over Superman's shoulder. "How's that?"


Superman turned to glare at him, the person who had woken him up. "Not now," he said firmly.


Flash drew back. "Sor-ry, grumpy-pants."


Superman turned back to the screen. "So, why don't you try explaining it to me. Then maybe I can help you."


Aquaman's scowl deepened. "What have I been trying to do? Like I was saying, I have a problem. Not a geological problem, but-" he was cut off by an alarm.

"Sorry, Arthur, this will have to wait." Superman glanced at a map that had come on screen. "We've got a problem in Star City. I'll talk to you later."

"Fine." The monitor screen went black.


Superman pressed a button that operated the intercom. "All leaguers to the hanger."


A few minutes later the seven of them were at the designated spot, entering the Javelin. Flying over the area over Star City that had the trouble, every one of the leaguers mouths hit the floor.


A giant mechanical octopus was hovering over the city. Three glowing white eyes blinked on and off.


Wonder Woman was the first to speak. "It's-"

"Brainiac. And he's back." Superman cut her off. As the jet landed, he said, "Let's stop him for good this time."


Shayera tapped her mace in the palm of her left hand. "Pleasure, now let's kick some mechanical butt."


Each of them took off towards Brainiac, each in their own way. Flash ran, Batman launched a bat-grapnel, and Shayera, Green Lantern, Superman, J'onn, and Wonder Woman flew.


Superman flew at Brainiac full-speed. Just before he made impact, a kryptonite force field went up. With a scream, Superman plummeted to the ground, making a Superman-shaped hole in the ground. Shayera flew toward it, mace raised. Just before she would have hit it, John grabbed her with a green hand projected from his ring.

"Wait, Shay. Look down."


The hawk warrior did so, and saw a girl with long, white-blond hair on a rooftop nearby. The girl had a black jumpsuit on with violet stripes down the sides. The jumpsuit was cut around the arms, leaving them free to work. A black mask adorned her face, Shayera noted as she flew lower, much like Robin's. "Hey, you! Get away from here, it isn't safe."


The girl looked up with a shocked look on her face, and then disappeared. The roof was shadowed, almost directly under Brainiac. Shayera could still smell her, but couldn't see her. A flash from underneath her drew her attention to a boy, similarly clad, almost exact in looks except for the fact that his suit was a full jumpsuit with yellow stripes.


Wonder Woman landed near him, Shayera on the other side.


Diana gripped the boy's arm firmly. "You should not be here, it is too dangerous."


The boy looked her straight in the eyes and said, "You're here, it can't be that dangerous."


Her eyes widened. "Why, you, are you saying I can't fight?!" The boy's retort was lost in the sound of footsteps and a shout.

"Let go of him! I said, leave him alone!" The girl from the rooftop ran over and jumped into Wonder Woman.


Wonder Woman released the boy's arm, and staggered back. "Great Hera! What-?"


She interrupted herself and screamed, clutching her head.


By this time, Superman and the rest of the men had taken care of Brainiac. Flash had ran quickly around the metal monster, pulling the kryptonite force shield away from Brainiac. Superman had then, with Green Lantern's help, cut him apart. Superman had found the main computer chip and crushed it.


J'onn landed beside Diana and, his eyes glowing, taken her head into his hands. A shadow fell out of Diana and materialized on the ground. The young man knelt beside her and picking her up, stood.

"What did you do to my sister?!" He stuck his face in J'onn's threateningly.


Shayera had been about to stick her mace between them, when she heard that. "Your sister?"


The rest of the league landed on the roof. Batman went over to Wonder Woman and let her lean on him.


A sound from behind them made the group turn. Aquaman was standing in the dorrway to the stairs on the roof.

"I see you've figured out the problem" he said.
