Author's Note: This is a story I've been meaning to do for the longest time. This is the follow up to my long anticipated Teen Titans All Stars series. Even though I started Volumes 1 & 2 a few years ago, I was never able to finish the end of Vol. 2 putting the story on an unintended hiatus and now that my computer has crashed I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to finish it. I apologise for the wait, so to make up for this I've decided to test the waters and go ahead and launch the next chapter so the speak in the All Stars metaseries. Hope you enjoy it.
Teen Titans All Stars, Vol. 3
Its been one year since the terrible event known as the Blackest Night when an army of the undead waged an interstellar war on all creation. At the heart of this madness was the necomatic supervillain known as Black Hand, at one time a hapless loser amongst the villain community Black Hand was somehow the carrier of something far more sinister than he. In time though this darkness consumed his soul and he was reborn as the vile, nigh unkillable evil he would be known as and had become the avatar of an entity known only as 'The Black'. The Black was the living embodyment of death and dismemberment in the universe forged by the most ancient of evils, the living will of Death itself. Fueled by this evil Black Hand began raising an army of the dead comprised of the friends and loved ones of those who had an emotional tie with those they left behind, these undead beings would prey on the living and harvest thier hearts to fuel thier power and bring those they have converted into the fold. The name of this evil? The Black Lantern Corps.
As a consequence of this long forgotten evil, six new Lantern Corps would spring forward each commanding thier own portion of a metaphysical power grid known as the Emotional Spectrum. Of these six thier powers were derived as such, the Green Lantern Corps of Willpower, the Red Lantern Corps of Rage, The Yellow Lantern Corps of Fear, the Orange Lantern Corps of Averice, the Blue Lantern Corps of Hope, the Indigo Tribe of Compassion and the Violet Lantern Corps of Love. With two of them having more familar names in the coming age: the Yellow Beacon commanded by Sinestro and his corps, and the Violet Beacon wielded by the Star Sapphires. Unbeknownst to them they had fulfilled an ancient prophecy known to the Guardians of the Universe as the War of Light, stating that the seven factions should work together to halt the coming of the Blackest Night. However due to thier radically different ideaologies the factions instead fought one another in an attempt to destroy thier rivals so that their emotional power would reign supreme. The more benevolent factions would band together to ensure thier survival while the more malevolent corps ensured thier destruction. Ignoring the Guardians' warnings the Blackest Night came and descended upon the universe resulting in an all out fight for survival across the cosmos, where on Earth the Black had been released from William Hand's body, pitting the superhero community and the world in the crosshairs. When enough hearts were collected the Lord of the Evil Black Lanterns Corps was released on Earth in the decimated remains of what was once Coast City, California - Green Lantern Hal Jordan's hometown. Forcing the Justice League, Teen Titans and every superhuman left standing to face Nekron and his assembled army.
Nekron was the living embodyment of Death itself, its ultimate expression and incarnation. A sixty foot tall black skeletal corpse of a being that was clothed in a low cut ebony robe with the Corps symbol at his waist and weilding an enormous Black Lantern Power Battery that was attached to his scythe as the dark master sought to snuff out all creation. It was here he revealed that a spirt as ancient as he would lay hidden beneath the Earth being his opposite number and was infact the enbodyment of life known only as The Entity. Nekron would then slay the Earth-Spirit and end all existance in one fell swoop. But Superman considering himself the protector of all life wouldnt stand for this nor would the hero community that stood in attendance with him. Though vastly numbered and outclassed the Man of Steel made his solum plege that he would destroy the embodyment of darkness and end the Blackest Night once and for all. A very bold statement indeed until the psychopomp noted that Kal-El had been killed in battle once before as had several other superheroes that stood with him. And the ironclad resolve of the heroes started to waver as they wondered amongst themselves what the dark one meant. It was there Nekron revealed his trap to the assembled heroes as he latched several specially tainted Black Lantern Rings to Superman and several others he cryptically mentioned revealing them as his insider agents converting Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, the Flash, Hal Jordan, Raven and Terra into living Black Lanterns. Superheroes he himself had brought back from death to serve as the Black Lantern Corps' trojan horse. Trapped inside thier own concious bodies the black rings forcing the invaded heroes to fight and murder thier friends and teammates.
Though the battle was hard fought the League and the Titans were not about to give up on thier beloved teammates reminding them of thier humanity and how they were not the real enemy. It did very little to assauge the murderous impulses of the compromised heroes but from the inside they were fighting with all thier might. Superman who had the strongest mind was forced to battle his mentees Superboy and Supergirl and tried to restrain himself as best he could while he fought the ring's power from the inside. While Batman was forced up against his fellow teammate Wonder Woman keeping his distance from the deranged and damaged Amazonian before her sidekick Wonder Girl entered the fray and Batman was forced to defend her as well as himself. Green Arrow battled his ward Arsenal as well as the members of his makeshift family including Black Canary. While Flash battled his former sidekick and Hal Jordan took on his fellow corpsmen Killowog, Guy Gardner and John Stewart in the air along with his mortal enemy Sinestro and his corps. Raven fought with her fellow Titans while Terra battle Beast Boy on thier own. Rather than be a corpse the living Black Lantern's skin had turned gray with her once luxurious hair having wilted to a pale blonde with a small Black Lantern symbol replacing the Titans logo on her chest with her shorts having turn silver with black highlights reaching upward as was part of the typical BL design.
"Terra you dont want to do this." he said backing up as Terra moaned towards him.
"Come on Terra its me, its Beast Boy. You know the guy you love and all that stuff? Terra think about all the stuff we've been through." he said as he continued to back away from her not wanting to fight her.
"Beeeeeeast...Boooy." she moaned with her arms stretched out to him.
"That's kind of an improvement...I think." he said cautiously before Terra tore out two large chunks of earth and hurled them at the teen as he dodged them.
"Or not. Terra that ring its screwing with your mind, you have to take it off. Listen to me!" he yelled as Terra lowered her arms for a brief moment. Beast Boy paused thinking he'd won her over until she revealed a lava pump underneath her spraying a geyser of it at her lover.
Beast Boy turned into a small bird and evaded it as best he could while the Black Lantern Terra shot the broken stone platelets at him. As similar events played out across the battlefield with the tainted Lanterns and members of the other corps tried to assist them while defending thier own lives. And while they were distracted Nekon took the opportunity to slaughter the life entity that appeared to be all but helpless, in the midst of all the chaos Sinestro caught sight of Nekron's power play and quickly flew across the battlefield and bonded with the Entity just moments before the death blow was struck. It was then the Entity had awaken blinding Nekron and all others with a brillant burst of light, revealing Sinestro as a brand new being to the shock of all who had seen it. The being with whom Sinestro had bonded with proclaimed himself to be the greatest Lantern of all and daring Nekron to take him on now as the newly realized White Lantern. But Nekron merely laughed stating that Sinestro didn't understand what he was dealing with. Sinestro as arrogant as he was balked at this and claimed that he knew full well what he was up against and that Nekron should be fearful of him as he had mastery over the very concept of fear. But did not pall the psychopomp one bit as he had clarified to Sinestro that he had no concept over what the Life Entity was or what it represents and that a mind as cynical and depraved as his couldn't possibly master its powers even one iota.
And while the White Lantern's powers were impressive allowing him to slaughter hundreds of Black Lanterns with a mere thought. They did not warrant concern from the demon lord himself as he quickly demonstrated his supremecy over the White Lantern whose attack had no ill effect on Nekron. And would soon quell Sinestro's boasts clutching his fist and showing him the real meaning of fear, assualting Sinestro's mind with the most violent, hellacious and otherwordly images known to sentient life. While this was going on the tainted Black Lantern Rings' hold on the infected heroes started to waver as Nekron's attention was elsewhere giving Hal Jordan and the others thier first taste of freedom since coming under the ring's influence. Hal Jordan was the first to break free shattering his Black Lantern form while Superman was next and the others followed at that same moment Nekron released his grip on Sinestro and drew back his scythe and slayed the Life Entity and Sinestro cleaving both of them in half at the waist as a massive jolt of pain was felt by all creation. Though he was in execruiating pain Green Lantern stayed the course racing past the back of the demon lord's head and straight towards the severed remains of the Entity as it seperated from Sinestro's near dead remains. At that last moment Nekron caught sight of the ruse and shuddered reaching out to him as Green Lantern fused with the Entity's severed upper torso creating a new fusion before Nekron could act. The Entity was whole once more as Hal emerged from the brillant gleaming light as the new White Lantern ready to take on Nekron. But Hal caught sight of Sinestro gasping for air as he drifted though space on the brink of death when the White Lantern reached out his hand and restored Sinestro to life and function. As a wielder of the Green Lantern power Hal was more in tune with the Entity's desire to protect life rather than vengence marking Hal's willpower as among the strongest there is.
It was here that Nekon would meet his end as Hal noted that Sinestro's direct attack had no effect on him meaning that as a metaphysical being he had no presence in the living world, he had to be connected to something. But what? At first he figured it had to be the Power Battery attached to his scythe as that was the source of Hal's own power as well as the alternate corps'. It couldnt be that simple could it? There's no way Nekon would leave himself open like that even if he was an abstract being. No there had to be something else, something he wasn't seeing. He better think of something fast, he thought as Nekron gouged his claws at him sicing a hundred and twenty Black Lanterns on him at once as Hal threw up his arms and shielded himself in a white ball of energy that vaporized the attacking Lanterns as more joined the fray seeking to end of life of Hal Jordan and the accursed Entity. In the midst of all the madness and the constant blasts eradicating the vicious Lanterns that he noticed Black Hand standing at the feet of Nekron remembing that the Chief Lantern boasted about his role throughout the entire ordeal and about how he was its harbinger he realized in that moment as he continued putting off pulses of bright clensing light that he was the tether acting as Nekron's anchor in the physical world and decided to put his theory to the test flying towards Black Hand as his followers chased after him while Nekron snarled gritting his teeth at the White Lantern and gave one last strike to slaughter the Entity and its champion once and for all with an upward swing of his sickle while Hal did a barrel roll edging just past it and gripped Black Hand's forehead channeling his power into the undead antichrist. Black Hand's eyes flew open as the white light surged through him filling his very being while Nekron started to lose his hold on reality. Suddenly a violent burst of power surged out the villain's back as the white light of creation took hold and Black Hand screamed while Nekron droaned out a low 'noooo'. The light flooded the Earth cleasing it of the Black Lantern impurities as the evil dead were bathed in it and disintergrated in the purifying wave before leaving Earth's orbit and headed out into the cosmos ridding the universe of the violet plague.
Curiously enough though the White Light also managed to reanimate and resurrect some of the decedents to proper mortal form including the likes of Aquaman and others. While Black Hand himself was rendered human cleansing him of the Black's presence and negating his own Lantern powers as Nekron's form started to crumble. A chasm to the afterlife ripped the earth asunder beneath his feet as the demon lord was cast once more into the eternal abyss as he made his last threat to the one that defeated him as Hal looked on telling Nekron that he'll be here waiting as the rift was sealed ending the Blackest Night once and for all and the Entity divested itself of Hal Jordan's physical form returning him to normal as he stood clad in his Green Lantern uniform staring at the healed crevice where Nekron fell. Superman clapped his shoulder as the rest of the superheroes celebrated around him.
And now one year to the day of his defeat the Teen Titans held thier own celebration as they commenorated the fifth anniversary of the founding of the Teen Titans. In this case a reunion of old teammates. In the years prior to the Teen Titans reforming, a similar team comprosed of younger individuals operated. Which was formed by the supposed heirs of the Titans legacy, a group of heroes that would carry on the spirit of what the Teen Titans stood for. Robin, Superboy, Wonder Girl and Impulse were that team having taken on the codenames of the originals with the exception of Impulse who had his own hero identity and came to be regarded as the Flash's latest sidekick. Tim Drake, Conner Kent, Cassie Sandsmark and Bart Allen formed the first incarnation of YJ and were later joined by Arrowette a fan of Green Arrow, Secret an amnesiac and amicable ghost girl, Empress a self proclaimed voodoo priestess, and Slo'bo a deformed clone of the space faring bounty hunter Lobo. Despite thier youth and inexperience or perhaps becuase of it the team quickly became one of the more noted superhero groups in recent years. At some point the group disbanded and would later join the latest incarnation of the Teen Titans. Through a number of shake ups the roster would change and later break up the younger team of Titans and went thier seperate ways while the main Titans team comprised of thier elders continued on.
Not long after wards remnants of the Young Justice team would resurface in New York forming the next incarnation when team leader Nightwing battled the ruthless crimelord known as Blockbuster, thus forming two distinct teams in San Francisco and New York. The former comprised of the original team plus Terra and Arsenal, while the later team was made of new members Kid Devil, Ravager, Robin, Superboy, Wonder Girl, Impulse, Spoiler, Captain Boomerang Jr, Orpheus, Starfire and Nightwing. Though the teams would work together in multiple crisises with Nightwing acting as thier general. And through it all they have endured.
In San Francisco the tower was a little more crowded than usual as the team celebrated the legacy of the team as thier headquarters was filled to the brim with Teen Titans and Justice League members intersperced between them within the main hall's cozy quarters were black pillars that showcased the holographic images of the Titans and Young Justice throughout thier combined histories, the foremost pillar near the front entrance was one of the original Titans standing together with Robin in the center and flanked by Starfire and Raven on either side with Beast Boy standing on the far right and Cyborg on the far left. Behind them shone the holograms of Titans over the years in various poses including Speedy, Argent, Hot Spot, Aqualad, Starfire, Raven, Beast Boy, Terra, Robin, Red Star, Kole, Ga'naark, Jericho, Ravager, Jinx, Kid Flash, Timmy Tantrum Teether Melvin and Bobby in one image, Impulse, Donna Troy, Cassie Sandsmark in thier individual Wonder Girl costumes, Superboy in his original red and blue unitard with a leather jacket, Kid Devil, Tim Drake, Captain Boomerang Jr, Static, Geo-Force, Spoiler, Orpheus, Pantha, Thunder and Lightning standing together, and others. It was quite an impressive display as Titans and Leaguers conversed amongst themselves even though it made the tower feel a bit like a museaum.
"Hmph. Seems a little ostantageous wouldn't you think?" Green Lantern muttered to Superman whole holding a glass.
"Oh come on John let them have their big day. They earned it." the Man of Steel replied in a light, cheerful tone as his teammate scoffed.
"It'd been more impressive if they actually stayed together that long. Hell we've been a team longer than that you dont see us throwing a party." the Lantern snarked before taking a sip as Flash came up behind him giving him a slap on the back.
"Aw lighten up John, judging by your mood I'd say your either drinking too much or not enough." his teammate joked as John choked, sloshing a bit of his drink.
"Yeah that's cute kid, real cute." he said looking over his shoulder as Wally raised his hands up in defense.
"Right, I'll leave you to it then." he said before racing off as Superman looked on.
"He is right though you could stand to loosen up." the Man of Steel told him. Stewart narrowed his eyes at Clark as they parted ways.
Across from him and in the midst of the Young Justice pillars stood Raven as she talked with her teammates wearing a deep blue dress that came down to her thigh with a plunging neckline showing her clevage with Starfire floating overhead to her right in a light pink dress with spagetti straps and a skirt that was the same length as Raven, while Nightwing wore a light blue dress shirt under an open black blazer and slacks while Beast Boy wore a simple white t-shirt and dark pants, while Terra wore an off the shoulder light blue dress with a ruffled piece of fabric drapped across her chest and a cropped skirt that rose up to her right thigh while the rest of it came down to her left knee. As they chatted Wonder Woman came up behind Richard placing a hand on his right shoulder infront of the others.
"Congradulations you guys." she said holding a glass.
"Thanks Diana." Richard said as his teammates did the same.
"Feel free to come up to the Watchtower sometime. Maybe we'll have another teamup." she said over her shoulder as she continued onward. At that same moment Flash came up behind his old team wrapped his arms around Richard and Kori's shoulders taking them by suprise.
"Flash! Hey glad you could make it." Rich said as Wally pulled off his mask exposing his orange hair and green eyes.
"Hey I wouldn't miss this for anything! After all I had a hand in this team once." he joked.
"What?" Gar said.
"No you didn't. You just came over and ate all our nachos." laughed Rich as Flash dipped his head and chuckled admitting defeat.
"All right you got me, but seriously you try keeping up with my metabolism sometime." the Scarlet Speeder replied.
"Sure is nice seeing the old gang back together. Its been a while since I've seen some of these faces." Nightwing said looking out at the old reservist Titans.
"I agree but it does make our house feel a little cramped." Starfire added.
"Especially with the League in here." noted Cyborg.
"Dont worry they'll clear out as soon as we run out of snacks." joked Nightwing.
"Although with this guy around that might be alot sooner than we expect." mentioned Raven as Wally stood in thier midst.
"Hey!" the Scarlet Speedster shot back craning his neck at her while still latched to Nightwing and Starfire's shoulders.
"Your certain Bart doesn't pick up on the whole eating us out of house and home thing either right?" asked Nightwing messing with his friend.
"Or Inertia for that matter." added Beast Boy
"Eat a whole buffet one time and you guys wont let it go." Flash muttered and his friends laughed.
"Hey speaking of which where is Bart?" Beast Boy asked.
"He's around here somewhere." Nightwing said.
On the far left hand side of the great hall a few collums over stood a young teenage boy infront of his own hologram. But he wasn't admiring his own image rather he was comtemplating how far he had come, the boy in question was Bart Allen staring back at his former reflection. In the past year Bart had relinquished his prior identity of the carefree speedster known as Impulse, and has now taken up the mantle of his cousin and mentor's Kid Flash identity in order to be taken more seriously by the public as well as those in the superhero community. But this wasn't his cousin's Kid Flash costume, and had in fact modernized it to be more steamlined like his mentor. The new Kid Flash costumed retained the classic yellow on top and red on bottom with the added astetic of adding little jagged fringes to the tips and outside edge of his gloves, upgraded boots with flared wing tipped shinguards, a black jagged waist line mimicing Flash's own twin lighting bolt belt, and finally an updated symbol of a white circle with a red lightning bolt on his chest.
The impulsive speester had grown up in a sense both physically and mentally. One year older he was now slightly taller and a little sturdier in build but still light enough on his feet to dodge just about anything. He wasn't sure where he stood in the hero community, but one thing was for sure he wasn't going to be the impulsive idiot everyone thought he was. This was going to be the year that things changed.
While a similar problem had been plaguing Roy Harper, the hero formerly known as Speedy and currently operating as Arsenal. In recent months a spate of school shootings made Arsenal a lighting rod of controversy. Due to his M. had unwittingly ignited a firestorm of debate ranging from whether superheroes should be packing heat to what kind of role model he is for children. While his former mentor Green Arrow, Black Canary and the Titans flew to his defense, it became clear that Arsenal was now a point of contention in the public eye. Fearing that he had become a liability his team and the League had him benched until they could figure out what to do with him. Roy had been known to run his mouth, and was disuaded from interacting with the media, to say that Arsenal hadn't taken this well was an understatement. It was clear that Arsenal was hurting from this ordeal and being denied the life of a superhero because of his codename and motif. Eventually Roy decided he had enough and went against Nightwing's orders as he went on patrol around San Francisco. Already people had recognized him from his costume and more importantly the lack of a mask, as bottles were hurled at him from people on the sidewalk as he went by. Arsenal snapped at them but went no further, until further down the street a young woman cradled her child trying to hide him from his sight. He grimaced and pushed up his sunglasses as he moved on. It was an oddly unsettling ditchomy here he was a hero and yet people were reacting to him as if he was a criminal, as he continued along the street he began to wonder if he should reconsider his heroic identity. Feeling that he had enough prying eyes on him, he climbed into his truck an older red, boxy SUV with offroad lights and continued his patrol of the city.
A couple blocks down the street an alarmed off the street corner as Arsenal pulled in and saw a small collection of supervillains exit a bank in the middle of the night. Said villains were Mammoth, Jinx, Gizmo, Private HIVE and Doctor Light as the small team were caught in the truck's high beams as he pulled up. The villains smirked holding wads of cash as he got out of his truck.
"Hey look its Arsenal." Gizmo said as the bad guys chuckled.
"Careful guys he's a loaded weapon." cooed Jinx.
Private Hive threw up his hands in mock surrender to him.
"Oh don't shoot! Don't shoot!" he teased as the Titan glared at him while they laughed.
"Real cute." the hero said in a low voice as Doctor Light stepped onto the sidewalk.
"It seems as though the spotlight burns a little brighter on you." the photon manipulator stated with a smug grin.
"Yeah you've been the talk of the town as of late." Jinx said cooly.
"Yeah it must really suck." noted Gizmo.
"Especially since people think he's more dangerous than us!" bellowed Mammoth. Arsenal narrowed his eyes at the group.
"Careful or they might think your with us." Jinx added.
"You going to stand there and talk all night or are we gonna do this?" the hero answered in a low voice as he stood beside his truck. The villains smiled at one another as they leaned towards him.
"Very well then let's see how you do against The Fearsome Five." Doctor Light stated.
Arsenal pulled back his jacket revealing his gun and holster.
"Better be careful with that pea shooter son or you'll put someone's eye out." Gizmo snarked.
Arsenal heistated momentarily and noticed a handful of people on the other side of the street watching the battle.
"Yeah wouldn't want there to be any accidents." Mammoth joked. Arsenal scoffed and removed his belt holster throwing it behind him, then reached into his jacket drawing a third pistol and cast it down as well and got into fighting stance.
"Fair enough for you?" he asked.
"Heh. Idiot." Gizmo snerked aiming a wrist mounted rocket launcher at him and fired.
The missle flew at Arsenal as he leaped into the air as the rocket exploded underneath and came down at them eclipsed in the moonlight drop kicking Private HIVE's shield knocking him back into Jinx and Gizmo. The Private threw his shield crossways with Arsenal blocking the front of the shield off to one side with both arms before punching him in the rib throwing him off balance and a roundhouse kick to the head knocking him out. Mammoth threw down his massive fist as Roy jumped to his left with Gizmo and Jinx in close range as they both shot at him simotaniously, a green energy beam going off near his foot as Jinx's hex beam hit him in the chest knocking him back while Gizmo fired again at close range and Mammoth nailed him in the stomach with an underside punch throwing Arsenal up the street. The hero landed hard on his shoulderblades and rolled back while Mammoth raced towards him, dodging Mammoth's right hook and then his left doing a series of backflips before taking a knee right to the chin as he hovered briefly in the air before his chest pounded by the villain's massive fist as he roared throwing him even further up the street. The hero skidded across the pavement on his right side. Arsenal coughed as blood spurted from his mouth but was too weak to get up as the villains closed in.
"Hmph. Pathetic." Doctor Light said.
"You would know." Arsenal said reaching into his jacket with several small black balls intersperced between his fingers. A cloud of black smoke erupted in thier midst as Arsenal did a leg sweep on Jinx and Gizmo before punching out Light in the face and ducking past Mammoth as he raced up the street.
Mammoth growled as Light blasted him in the shoulder while thier powerhouse leaped after him. At that same time Gizmo sprang out of the smoke cloud on his mechanical spider legs and a set of missle launcher rose out of his tech pack on either side firing a dozen rockets at Arsenal while Jinx shot a slew of hex bolts at the downed Titan unaware that Mammoth was now in the crosshairs catching thier teammate in the crossfire and inadvertantly saving Arsenal as he tried to escape. The rockets exploded hitting Mammoth in the back and lanching Arsenal across the battlefield causing an even larger explosion as they mixed with the hex bolts throwing Arsenal directly infront of his car his intended target. Splayed on his chest the her pulled himself up to the rear door of his pickup as Private HIVE rejoined the battle with his shield in hand. Arsenal flipped open the car door but Private HIVE smashed the window with his shield reaching in. Arsenal punched him through the broken window, reaching his bow and quiver in the back seat and slammed the bak door shut while Private HIVE was still trapped in the window. It was at this time Private HIVE regretted his decision to use his shield as a battering ram while up the street Mammoth remained face down in a blackened pit leaving just Gizmo, Jinx and Doctor Light.
"You losers have enough yet?" Arsenal asked. The remaining trio glared at him as Gizmo activated some guantlet blasters that fired green disc shaped energy beams while Jinx and Doctor Light added thiers.
Arsenal stood his ground and shot a specialized arrow that covered the field surrounding the laser blasts in a black flash that neutralized thier attack. The supervillains looked back at Arsenal stunned as he stood there.
"What the heck was that?" Jinx said.
"A photon eraser, the scrum bucket used negatively charged electrons to absorb them." Gizmo stated.
"He can do that?" Jinx asked.
"He's not smart enough to figure that out, probably some of Green Arrow's tech." he replied.
"Or the League's." Doctor Light added.
"And that's just with one arrow, imagine what else he's carrying around in that quiver." Jinx noted.
"Me thinks it best we beat a hasty retreat." Doctor Light advised to his remaining teammates as Jinx looked over at the downed Mammoth and Private HIVE.
"What about them?" she asked.
"Leave them." he said it was at that moment that Mammoth started to stir to thier amazement while Private HIVE drew his arm out the shattered window of Roy's truck and opened the door retrieving his shield.
Back at the tower the party continued with the Titans and the League unaware of the goings on in the city. But the party was cut short as a loud chirp could be heard in the ear pieces of many of the Leaugers.
"Justice League Emergency: Volcana and the Human Flame are plotting to erupt Mt. St. Hellen's and destroy the surrounding area in Washington State. They are being led by a new fire themed metahuman known as Backdraft. Immediate response is needed." the Martian Manhunter said from within the crowd as the League members turned to one another.
"Let's go." Superman told them leaving the Titans to thier own devices to the team's dismay.
Only moments earlier Black Canary had been asking Donna and the other Titans if they had seen Roy when she was called to action. Canary who had been like a mother figure to Roy since he was a teenager told the crew she would talk to them later before running off to join the other Leaguers.
Author's Note: All right so what'd you think of that? Hope it was to everyone's liking I've been in a bit a writer's funk lately and had trouble coming up with new material. I just wanted to see how this one would turn out. And I have to say I'm pretty pleased with myself. Let me know what you think.
Please review,
The Green Gallant.
