Rebel Justice

The Justice Lords

Two years ago, Lex Luthor was elected as president. For some unknown reason, he had the Flash executed. Shortly there after, he was lobotomized by Superman, because of all the crimes he had committed and managed to always get away with.

This event gave birth to our world.

All the super villains are lobotomized. We bring justice and order to the world. No one is killed by rampaging evildoers. No one has to sleep wondering what will destroy their city next.

We do it for them, the citizens, yet they run from us. They run in terror. They protest in hate. They curse our names.

But now, a new crisis has risen. It causes even the hero's to worry for their safety. More specifically, the safety of their protégés, the next generation.

It started with Speedy. He left the day they were supposed to start the process of joining the Justice League. He then dropped off the grid, no one had heard from him since. So, Green Arrow took on a new sidekick, Artemis, after he took her father, Sportsmaster down. When he gave her a choice, she jumped at the chance to avoid prison.

Then, after Flash was murdered, Kid Flash disappeared. He was expected to take up the mantle, become the Flash, but he disappeared. They searched the globe, but he was gone.

Artemis disappeared one night from her room at Mt. Justice. No one knew why she had left, but leave she did.

M'gann ran off after her uncle found out she was a white Martian and tried to take her back to Mars. He searched for her physically and telepathically to no avail.

Aqualad stormed off after he found out his father was Black Manta, and Aquaman hadn't told him. It didn't help that he was told right after he had accidentally killed Manta.

Superboy had been found at Cadmus after a fire in their facility. They took him in, though Superman was disgusted by the sight of the clone. He stayed for as long as he could stand being rejected by his idol, then left.

They had searched the galaxy for the missing teens, but they couldn't find them anywhere.

So, that left Robin, whom Batman guarded jealously, afraid to loose his little bird. But Robin didn't mind. He wanted to stay with his mentor, his father. Even though people ran away from him as he walked down the street, he didn't care. He was happy, he had a family.

So they ruled the world with an iron fist, constantly searching for their missing protégés. They were the tyrants of Earth.

They were the Justice Lords.

Huzzah! A new story! This one will be based off the Justice League episode A Better World, which is amazing, by the way. Just in case there is any confusion, Speedy left right before the Lords turned to the dark side, KF left shortly after, and they found Superboy after they went bad, though the reaction was the same. Any other questions, PM me.

Have a sweet 'n' sugary day,
