"Aqualass, look out!" Kid Flash yelled trying to dodge the flying bullets being pelted at him by Cobra goons. Aqualass jumped out of the way just before a knife came hurtling at her at the speed of light, and slammed into the wall behind her, just missing M'sonn's head.
"Enough!" yelled a stern voice out of the shadows. Everyone stopped as they saw a tall man escape the darkness.
"Dad?" thought Apollo as he pulled an arrow out of his quiver and quickly placed it in his bow. Nightwing, as she just finished sending a Cobra goon across the room to be slammed agents the ground by Super Girl, looked in awe as the built man pulled out a flail and started swinging it as if it was nothing.
"Sportsmaster..." Nightwing said softly to herself. She looked at M'sonn and SG, giving them a quick nod to get in attack formation. M'sonn set up a psychic link so Nightwing could walk him threw the steps of dismantling the brain control devise.
"Hey kiddo, nice finally seeing you again. Why haven't you called? I and Jaden really missed you! It's nice to see that one of my son's still has loyalty left in him."
Everyone (except Nightwing) gasped at the thought of Apollo, there teammate, there friend, to have relations with a convict of his power, a convict who has more than once tried to kill every one of them, including him. As the team was lost in awe, another voice appeared behind them.
"Yeah bro, why did you even join this loser squad anyway, I mean, we had such potential to be the first family squad of villains... You know, before you and mom had to go and mess it up."
"How?!" Nightwing said to herself as she backed away in horror, trying her best to play it cool as she slowly walked toured Wally, her boyfriend.
"Cheshire!" Apollo said as he turned around to face his brother, arrow directed right at his temple. "I thought you were dead, I mean, Nightwing killed you! At that moment, he shot a death glare at Nightwing, as he telepathically said, "Nightwing, you killed him! Was it all a lie? Are you working with them? Why is he here? Are you trying to kill the team from within? Nightwing, answer me? I'm one of your best friend! Tell me!"
"Nightwing suddenly replied, "Apollo, No! I'm not working with them! I'm as stunned as you that he's standing here! He was on the ground dead, I don't know how he's alive, and he had no pulse!"
"Nightwing I don't know... How do I know you're not lying to me right now?"
"Apollo we've known each other since the start of the team! We have been friends since I was Robin, we went to school together, and shouldn't you know if I was lying? But can we discuss this later when we're not being cornered by your crazy family?"
"Right, Right, sorry... I believe you... let's take them down."
Nightwing gave the signal for M'sonn to go dismantle the device. Quickly, M'sonn flew past Sportsmaster, still not visible to the human eye.
"Nightwing, I'm headed toured the machine, how do I dismantle it?" M'sonn said telepathically, slowly creeping past Sportsmaster.
"Ahh, ahh, ahh, I might not be able to see you, but I can hear you my young lad."
M'sonn stopped dead in his tracks as he gasped at the voice in his head. "Nightwing! Someone's hacked our link!" He knew who it was. There was only one person that could have that voice.
