I was going to give this fic up for adoption but just decided to edit and repost it! I kept most of everything the same except just finished the story!

Alex Wayne aka Jekyll looked frantically for his scattered team. He managed to make out their forms and cursed to himself "How did they manage to find us?" He looked up when Derek Kent aka Shade appeared at his side "Are there any injured?" He asked, desperate to get his team to safety before they could strike again.

Diana's house had been the last shelter they had had. Now she and the house were gone, burning in flames in the distance.

Shade looked at Jekyll "Everyone's stats are reading fine." He said as he looked down at his watch and pressed the buttons on it going through their team. "Miriam has an injury but her adrenaline is so high I can't see how wounded she is…we have to get her out of here."

Jekyll nodded "Alright." He found Brian or rather Merlin and nodded for him to mentally connect 'Tell everyone to move out…we can't stay here any longer Miriam is injured.' Merlin nodded and closed his eyes, a sign that he was concentrating before opening them and motioning Jekyll to a hill in the distance.

The team gathered together and Jekyll felt a heavy weight on his chest as he looked at the shape they were in. Their clothing was all in tatters from the weeks…months they had spent on the run. Miriam was cradled up to Amazon and he could see now that she had been injured on her back. Shade was near exhaustion but his face was filled with grim determination. Merlin looked tired as well but waited quietly for orders. Green Lantern was not so quiet and demanded "Where are we going now? That was the last safe place!" Her words echoed the despair that they all felt as she finished "She was the last one..."

They were all silent for a moment as they absorbed the fact that the last parental figure in their lives, one of the last and few they had been able to trust, was gone. The fact that she had died protecting them made the burden even harder to bear.

Before Jekyll could speak a white light appeared in the middle of their huddle. It started out small like a flame and then grew until it was a large figure of a woman hovering above them. "Children…" She said, her voice echoing around them "You have gone through great misfortune that was never meant to happen…none of this was destined…I will take you to a safe place where you can prevent this from happening. Be warned, if you accept you will never again return to this time. Time will be altered and it will be permanently warped if you cannot change what led to this day."

Shade narrowed his eyes at her and stood saying angrily "And who exactly are you to be offering us safety?" He looked around at the others gathered around and said "This is what happened because we trusted an adult! What makes you different?"

The woman's form hovered for a minute before she answered "I understand your anger young Derek Kent…you were betrayed…you all were…but trust me, I can help you change this if you accept this."

Jekyll stood next and looked at her levelly "You said we will never return to this time…will we die?"

The woman smiled down at him "Ahh young Alexander Wayne…no you will not die, alternate versions of you will continue where we leave this time."

Jekyll looked at the team surrounding him, there truly was nothing left for them here, no one left to protect them. He could hear the explosions coming faster towards them and looked to Merlin and Shade to see what their votes were for. Shade looked skeptical but shrugged his shoulders and said "It can't be much worse than this."

Jekyll looked to Merlin to see what he had to say and the other boy nodded "There is nothing left for us here." He said solemnly as he looked at the burning house in the distance, taking Miriam into his arms and healing the wound on her back as the decision was made.

Jekyll looked at the rest of his team and saw that they were nodding in agreement, however grim it was they knew that they had to trust this apparition. He turned to woman and said "Alright…take us to this safe place." He had hardly finished speaking when the woman smiled and her light grew to encase them all.

Justice League Earth Headquarters

Twenty Years Earlier

The Flash was buzzing around the Headquarters before stopping, holding a bag of chips he had taken from the kitchen, and leaned over Batman's shoulders "Hey do you have any games on this thing?"

The Batman looked over his shoulder and narrowed his eyes to show that he was not amused before turning his attention back to the screen "Nothing you would be interested in." He said dismissively, his fingers lazily stroking the keys. Suddenly red lights began to flash and Batman's speed on the keys increased as they moved furiously across the board.

Superman joined in and gently nudged the Flash aside so that he could see the computer screen better "What's happening? Are we being attacked?

The alarms had alerted the rest of the League, those who had not already been there arrived within minutes. Wonder Woman had been below and came up to the control room with Hawk Girl just as the Green Lantern arrived.

Batman looked grimly up at the screen as he explained what was happening "We're not being attacked…someone's trying to enter but none of the defenses are working…they'll be here momentarily."

As he finished speaking a bright white light appeared in the middle of the room and was quickly surrounded by the League as they prepared to defend their Headquarters and possibly the Earth as well. A soft voice came echoing out of the white light and said "Do not attack…we come in peace and are looking for shelter."

As the light faded several figures were able to be seen with a ghostly woman hovering above them. Superman took a step forward and motioned to the League to back off as he said "We welcome all of those who are looking for a safe place to rest…Who are you and where do you come from?"

Batman was silent as Superman welcomed the group. He was more jaded then their leader and wondered who these people were running from and if their enemies would follow them to the formally secured headquarters of the League.

Alex looked up and moved to stand in front of his team as a figure approached them. He was slightly dazed but his vision was quickly clearing. He looked back at his team and saw that they were recovering as well. "We are from Earth." He started, unsure if they were truly safe yet. When his vision cleared he looked up at the figure before him and his eyes widened in shock.

Derek was the next to recover and looked around him his eyes going wide as well before narrowing "You promised us to take us somewhere safe! What kind of trick is this?"

Miriam looked up weakly from Tiffany's arms and said "Where are we? Oh! Mommy and Daddy are here…have I died?"

Tiffany hushed her sister and said quietly "No…we're not dead…I don't know what's going on here." She looked up at the figure of the woman, her gentle tone hardening as she said "Where have you taken us?"

Theodora looked around as well and said "This is messed up…" as she rubbed her head. She looked at Alex and repeated "What the hell just happened?"

The woman smiled and said "To answer your question children it's not where I have taken you but rather when. I told you there has been a grave mistake made in this time stream, to fix it I had to bring you to the year that it occurred." She turned to the adults in the room and said "Please be kind to these children." as she disappeared.

The Justice League stood stunned as they looked at the group of 'children' before them. The one who appeared to be the leader seemed startled when the woman left and looked around for her before motioning for two other boys to join him.

Their leader was one of the older teenagers in the small group. He had shoulder length wavy blond hair with bright blue eyes. He was slightly taller than the others but his height made his slender form look willowy and delicate. He moved to put himself in the center of the group as they convened.

The other two who joined him seemed to be about his age. One had shaggy dark hair and the same piercing blue eyes as the blond. His figure had much more muscle and his stance was more aggressive than the blond. The other one to join them was shorter than either of them and had long dark green hair with matching green nails and light green skin. The color of his skin set off his features and his milky white eyes.

Alex motioned for Derek and Brian to come over to him and Brian linked them into a mental conversation.

'What should we do? This wasn't exactly what I was expecting' Alex started

'We can only continue on the path that we have chosen, if we explain ourselves to them we will come to no harm.' Brian reasoned, he was correct, it was too late for them to change their minds and return.

'We can't trust them! We've already seen what they are like! They're the reason we were in this trouble to start with!' Derek finished angrily, and though justified his anger was they had realized that they had no choice.

Superman respected that obviously the young group before him was as confused as they were and allowed them to have a few moments to collect themselves. The three boys pulled apart and the blond came forward to introduce himself.

"I'm sorry we came here so suddenly…as the lady said we were in a great danger that was never meant to happen and we had to come back to make sure that it does not happen again." He stepped forward and held out his hand "I'm Alex…" He bit off saying his last name; it would only cause as much trouble in this time as it had in his. "I'm called Jekyll…you know like Jekyll and Hyde?" He said with a laugh.

Superman shook Alex's hand, he had noticed that the last name had been left out but did not press as he smiled down at the slender youth. "It doesn't matter, you're safe now and we can sort out the rest later. I'm Superman and they are…"

He didn't get to finish as Derek stepped forward and cut him off "We know who you all are. Superman…Batman…Wonder Woman…Hawk Girl…Green Lantern…and John…" He sneered at Superman as he said "We know who else you are too: Clark Kent…Bruce Wayne…Diana…Shayera Hol…John Stewart…and John J'onzz."

Superman stared at the dark haired boy in surprise and said "How could you…?"

Derek smirked and said "Because…Well you guys are so smart you'll figure it out after we introduce ourselves won't you?" Derek looked back when Alex put a firm hand on his shoulder and frowned but shrugged it off "You heard her we already changed the timeline… we might as well be honest…Alex…" He said pointedly and shook his head as Alex said nothing and pulled back. He turned his attention back to Superman and said "And by the way…I'm Derek Kent, also known as Shade."

The League looked at the dark haired boy with surprise at his announcement and then when they heard his last name looked at Superman with shock. Batman stepped forward and said "Who are the rest of you?" He was beginning to understand what had just happened and wanted them to confirm it.

Brian stepped forward and smiled at the League "I am Brian J'onnzz…known as Merlin" His cheeks turned a darker green "I was fascinated with his character in the Tales of Arthur…" He stepped back and motioned for the younger ones to introduce themselves.

The next one to step forward put her hands on her hips as she looked levelly at the adults before her. She wasn't as old as the boys but was at least thirteen, her skin was lightly tan and for her youth she had muscle already on her especially in her shoulders. Her hair was curly to her shoulders and was a rich dark brown that matched her eyes. In her hair were lighter brown highlights and several feathers that seemed to move intermittently "I'm Theodora Stewart." She flashed the green ring she wore on her middle finger and said "And I'm the Green Lantern." She looked behind her and motioned for the last two to step forward.

Tiffany, about as old as Theodora, picked up her sister and said "I am Tiffany West…but I'm called Amazon." She had bright copper hair that fell past her shoulders in neat waves. The color of her hair was highlighted by her pale skin, green eyes and freckles. She looked down at the young girl in her arms and said "Can you introduce yourself?"

The girl looked shyly way from her sister at the group in front of her. She had messy black hair that had been tried to be kept neat with two pigtails and her bright blue eyes looked around with hesitation. Softly she said "I-I'm…Miriam and…and…I'm FOUR!" She finished loudly as she held up a small hand with four fingers proudly held out.

The League was silent as they looked upon the children and finally the Flash said what they had all just realized "Holy crap…These are our kids!"

Thank you all so much for reading! More is coming soon and all will be explained (including who shagged who!) in the next chapter!
