Prologue
The two genetic scientists worked long hours as they always had, even before they become a couple. Forever studying, looking for rational answers to what they believe to what can be explained through the knowledge of science. Unaware they are targeted to be forcibly used in creating something they never dreamed of creating and what means of playing god.
"I guess it would mean that we should retire for the evening right?" rachel said, smiling to her beloved husband with tired glance. He tiredly yawned and nodded before answered with a tired smile. "Indeed love."
Rachel smiled, turning her computers off after logging out then clocked out from her timesheet as her husband followed shortly afterwards. Gently pulled his wife to his embrace and nuzzled his forehead with hers, smiling loving. Gazing back into his eyes, as she draped her arms around his neck and tiredly sighed. "Allow me to carry you to bed, my queen." Robert gestured, loving. Rachel smiled, giggled to the comment and gesture as she happily accepted. "You may carry me to bed when we shall get home, love."
"I shall do more than that when we get home, rachel." He purred happily. "Oh I know, Robbie." She giggled. "Lets go home, babe." Robert nodded and walked out with her, holding his beautiful spiteful close as they made their way to the car. "Do you hear that?" rachel asked, grasping his arms tighter. "No, I didn't." he replied, as he yelped to the grasp. "You're clinging too tight."
"Someone is here, Robert." Rachel told him as he looked around then finally realised that his wife was not imaging the coerce laughter that sounded like evil cackles. Then finally a stranger revealed himself. "Doctor rachel and Robert Matheson, I presume."
"Who are you?" Robert Matheson demanded. "Someone that you shouldn't say, no to."
"What do you mean by that?" rachel said, worriedly as she held her husbands hand tightly. "Exactly what I have said." He paused as both were placed on conscious from the blow that hit behind their skulls, knocking them out. "Take them to shadow league headquarters."
Four men did as they were told and binds the prisoners before huddling them in the car then drove them to the building where the employer awaited.

Awakening in dark rooms where they found themselves cuffed to the chairs, they sat on. Robert looked around his surroundings and couldn't find his wife as she cried out, calling his name. Trying his hardest in breaking his shackles only to bruise his wrist and begun to cut into his skin. "I am coming, rachel." He cried, assuring her as he vowed to get to his wife in time just as the door opened and bright light entered the room in the shape of the door with a shadow figure in the centre. "Your wife shall live if only you both agree in doing what my employer wants."
"Sorry pal, whatever you want I will not comply with criminals." Robert barked, gritting through his teeth. "Very well then." Looking behind him with a evil smile. "Bring in the brat."
"No, you didn't." Robert's eyes widen in horror and worrying fear as his four year old daughter is brought in the room, sound asleep in the embrace of the captor. "The choice is you do what we want and your family shall be safe. But one condition."
"And the condition is?" glaring angrily as he continued to break free from his restraints only to no avail. "Your wife helps you or watch your daughter die before your eyes." Fog threatened as he rose a sharp dagger to the sleeping childs throat. "Please, I beg you. Let my family go." Lowering his gaze as he softly continued. "I'll do whatever you want, just let my wife and daughter go."
"No deal." Fog barked and motioned his head to gesture the order of taking the child away. "No! Dare harm a hair on my child's head, I swear I will kill you!" Robert barked out with harsh anger in his voice. "Calm down, she is safe for the time being. As your daughter has her destiny to meet as well." He evilly smug and chuckled. Roberts eyes widen in horror once more as he replied, confused and demanded for answers. "Destiny? What destiny? Explain you blastered prick!"
Fog chuckled. "You shall see, in due time. Dr. Matheson. In due time." The door closed as Robert Matheson continued to shout and bark out vowing his vengeance.

~continue in chapter one
I know short prologue but this is my first young justice fiction but I am creating something new as I do hope it will hit off good. As I had this idea while watching season one of young justice and wanted to make this one as I thought since the organisation known as the light is the true objective behind the attacks like the series as since they are collaborating a army of different strategies of trying to conquer the planet along with erricating justice league which I haven't seen past season one volume three of young justice as it is not easy to buy on DVD due to the lack of popularity in Australia of the series. Which is sad. Anyway onward to the next chapter, tootles. R&R. ;)
