Chapter 2: Not in Kansas

Authors Note: Hey everyone I corrected the end to the first chapter and included a few members. Sorry I rushed the last part there and forgot a few characters. Okay next chapter enjoy.

Disclaimer: I do not own injustice or DC characters just the oc's…most of them.

Gauntlet, Batman and Joker were instantly sent into the middle of a great big city. Gauntlet quickly looked around to see that the nuke was gone and so was the park they were just in.

"What the hell's the matter with this thing?" Joker snapped. Gauntlet looked behind him to see Joker mashing the button on the detonator. He then looked over at the two and Gauntlet raised his fist. "This is somehow your fault."

Joker stomped over towards Gauntlet and sent his fist towards his face. Gauntlet caught it with very little difficulty and threw him over his shoulder. Joker let out a growl and got to his feet and pulled out a knife.

"Wait right there bats while I teach your new sidekick some manners." Joker growled.

He quickly charged at Gauntlet and swung his knife down, but Gauntlet blocked him again and smacked the knife out of his hand. He then raised his fist ready to slug the clown in the face but then he pulled a crowbar out of his pants and smacked the demigod across his face.

Gauntlet fell to the ground with an ache in his jaw but rolled out of the way before Joker could stab him with his knife again. Gauntlet got to his feet and fired a heat beam at Joker's knife and melted it and he raised his fist and sent it into Jokers face knocking him down on the ground.

"I'm no one's sidekick." Gauntlet grunted.

Joker quickly got to his feet again and charged at the young boy but this time Batman interfered by bringing his knee to Jokers stomach and his elbow to his head. Joker was once again on the ground as Batman restrained him. Gauntlet heard sirens wailing in the distance and started to get nervous.

"Hey, um maybe we should just go." Gauntlet said. "I don't think these guys are gonna be too happy to see us."

Sure enough the three were surrounded by armored cars and jeeps with multiple SWAT teams from hell pouring out of them. These guys didn't look like typical cops they each looked like they actually looked like a private army.

"Sam, take these." Batman said handing him what looked like ear plugs.

He nodded and put them in his ears as the cops surrounded them weapons drawn. Even their guns looked like they were ready for war they were bigger than the guys holding them.

"We said hands up freaks!" One of the cops yelled. "Do it or your dead."

Gauntlet was ready to grab his gun when Batman raised his wrist and a small switch popped out of his sleeve. He pushed the button and everyone around them started to clench their heads as an ear shattering sound echoed around them. Batman threw down some smoke bombs and the two quickly made their escape leaving Joker behind.

Night soon surrounded them as Batman and Gauntlet looked down at the streets. The cops were arguing about how they lost the clown but they just called him an imposter and shrugged it off. They were more made about losing Gauntlet and Batman and also mentioned how the 'Big Boss' wasn't going to like this.

"We're in a nightmare." Batman muttered.

"Yeah." Gauntlet sighed. "And we aren't waking up anytime soon. But why are they after us, it almost sounds like they wanted us dead before getting here?"

"I'm not sure, but we have to work together to figure a way out of this." Batman suggested and Gauntlet held his hands up.

"No arguments here, I don't wanna spend a second in this hell alone." He chuckled.

Part 2: Surge

The few Warriors and few Justice Leaguers stood on top of a rooftop overlooking a more grim version of Gotham.

This new team consisted of Wonder Woman, Green Arrow and Green Lantern while the warriors had Ronin, Surge, Apollo, Breeze, Batgirl and Zoom

"What the hell is going on?" Zoom shouted. "This place looks even shittier than before."

"Zack, calm down and shut up." Surge said casually. "What do you guys think?" He looked over at the Justice League who was also having some idea to what was going on.

"Another Earth?" Arrow thought out loud.

"We may have jumped to a different dimension." Wonder Woman thought. "Or, events in our own time line have changed and we're in a new alternate present."

"I'll go with that one." Ronin stated looking down at the streets with his arms crossed. "This place is giving off bad vibes."

"It's Gotham Max, this place always give off bad vibes." Apollo stated.

"Yes, but vibes we're used to." Ronin corrected. "The air, the temperature even the presence is making my teeth itch." Aquaman quickly stepped in and threw in his two cents.

"Whatever it is, we need to determine soon." He said with urgency. "If Joker set off that bomb we have to head back."

"The Watchtower should have picked up any anomalies, right?" Green Lantern suggested.

"The Watchtower might not exist." Wonder Woman said. "I can't make contact."

"I'm not getting anything from the mansion." Breeze said as she pressed her earpiece.

"And the Batcave is a no go." Batgirl groaned. "Same goes for Robin and Nightwing."

"Well we need to find out if the Tower is alright." Green Lantern said. "Once my ring is charged I can get us there."

"What about our H.Q?" Zoom asked getting in his face. "Are you just going to forget about our home now?"

"Zoom, relax." Breeze said holding the young boy. "I know you're scared but we need to stick together. If we can get to the Watchtower we can check on our home from there."

Zoom let out a few shaky breathes and nodded. Breeze smiled down at him as she looked at the League.

"Okay, now if the Watchtower doesn't exist what's our next move?" Breeze asked. Aquaman looked over at her as an idea struck his mind.

"The Atlantis Archives." He suggested. "If this is an alternate timeline, we might find a record of the triggering even there."

"Assuming there's an Atlantis." Green Arrow muttered as he stood to his feet.

"It's worth investigating." Wonder Woman stated. "Let's you and I check things out here."

"Zoom's still shaken up so I guess Apollo and I will stay with you two." Breeze said while leading the young boy away.

"I'm a pretty good swimmer and I have a breather on me so I'll search with Aquaman." Ronin said, walking over to the king of Atlantis. Green Lantern held his ring up to his lips.

"Ring. Where's the nearest power battery?" He asked.

"The Ferris Aircraft Facility in Coast City." The feminine voice said.

"Well at least that hasn't changed." Lantern said optimistically. "Stay low. I'll be back a-sap."

"Wait, I'll go with you." Surge said as he pulled out a small piece of metal. He gave it a jolt and it turned into a round disk. He hoped on and levitated in the air. "There's no telling what's waiting for us there. Better to travel in packs."

"Okay, let's go." Lantern said as the two flew off.

The trip was simple as they were now wandering through the halls. Surge had his handgun drawn just in case while Lantern talked to his ring.

"Where did you say the battery was?" Lantern asked.

"I didn't why are you asking me?" Surge asked. Lantern held his ring out clearly with a annoyed look on his face. Surge just looked away embarrassed as his ring explained the battery's location.

"Carol Ferris's office. Left at the next hallway, third door on the right." The ring explained.

"It's the fourth door." Lantern corrected.

"Even the guardians of the universe can't get their GPS to work." Surge joked. The two then stopped when they heard the sounds of people screaming.

The two cautiously walked over to the corner of the door and listened in on what was going on.

"Pretty tough, aren't you?" A familiar voice taunted.

"I'm not afraid of you children." Another voice grunted.

"Yes you are I can feel it." A self-absorbed person stated.

"Why don't you just kill us already we already told you to fuck off!" A young man shouted.

"Cause we need other answered from you stupid." An arrogant voice snapped.

"Tie him right side up, let's see how many lashes it will take before he sings."

"Raven? Cyborg?" Lantern muttered.

"The other two are Dusk and Star." Surge said. "What the hell is going on?"

Inside the two villains were being tortured by Raven's magic. Raven was dressed in a black one-piece with a hooded cloak outlined with black raven feathers around her collar. But her most unusual feature was that her skin went from being pale to red. Cyborg's armor had more plating and even his left robot eye was designed to look angry.

Dusk no longer wore his mask, but had his sunglasses on. He now wore a black shirt with tactical straps and cargo pants with combat boots. His tonfas were now blades that hung at his belt.

Star wasn't wearing her red miniskirt and top. She was actually wearing the same outfit as Breeze only hers was dark red she was now a splitting image of Ally. They all stood over Slade and Frost as Raven tortured them with her magic.

"This is your final chance to accept the High Councilor's amnesty, Deathstroke." Raven threatened.

"Be reasonable Frost, you know what we're capable of." Dusk grinned, holding his hands behind his back. Deathstroke just let out a tired chuckle.

"Get "re-educated" in your boot camp…become puppets…like you?" Deathstroke chuckled.

"I was a tool once before Jason." Frost grunted. "You aren't loyal to your boss, you four are just cowards who are afraid of death!"

Raven burned the two with her magic and tortured them even more as Cyborg leaned over the two.

"The boss is being generous I wouldn't be." Cyborg warned.

"Hell, our boss wanted to just kill you two, but the big guy stopped him before he could end your meaningless lives." Star giggled maliciously.

"Most of the Titans died in Metropolis five years ago." Cyborg explained.

"We didn't do that, we were bounty hunters." Frost grunted.

Star grabbed him by his throat, unknown to her that Surge and Lantern were right behind them.

"My sister and niece are dead because you lawless bastards!" Star shouted. "I don't care if you were the cause or not. You were the problem and now we're going to erase that problem."

Frost spat in her face which turned into a small bead of ice and hit her in the eye. She let out a grunt as she raised her knife ready to kill him. She brought it down towards his chest, but was blocked off by a light green force field. Her and Dusk looked over to see the same shield surrounding Deathstroke as they heard a pair of footsteps approach them from behind. To their surprise it was Surge and Lantern.

"This how things work here?" Lantern asked in anger. Surge was more upset then angry.

"Even we have limits in torturing guys." Surge grunted as the two stepped forward. Cyborg gave them both a disgruntled look.

"You're blue and green again?" He asked sarcastically. Raven looked at them more cautious.

"Something not right." Raven stated. "They are Hal Jordan and Mark Kyle. Yet…"

"Stand down." Lantern demanded. "You're done here."

"Definitely not ours." Cyborg grunted.

"Especially since they helped us get these two." Dusk said as he sauntered over to them. "So, who are you guys, clones, from the past from another world?"

"Jayden did warn us Batman would try something." Star snapped as she readied her staff.

"Guys, stand down." Surge growled as his fist conducted blue electricity. "You know I can take you." The two merely chuckled as Raven stepped in.

"You feel his pain?" Raven asked, her hands emitting a purple hue. "Not yet."

She fired her magic at both heroes bringing them to their knees as they struggled against her magic. The four supposed villains soon stood over the two as they struggled.

"After we're finished with Deathstroke and Frost how 'bout the six of us go talk to the high councilor." Cyborg stated sarcastically.

Lantern then charged his ring up and disabled the spell Raven casted on them and freed them. Surge quickly tackled Cyborg to the ground and sent a few volts into the mechs body. Cyborg let out a grunt and gripped the Meta human by his waist and lifted him over his head before throwing him aside. Surge quickly got to his feet and clenched his fist, spark flaring out of his body wildly now.

"Or how 'bout I just beat some information out of you." Surge grinned.

He quickly charged at Cyborg and sent his electric fist into his human side of his face. Cyborg staggered back before dodging his next attack and swung his metal fist into the side of Surge's head. His electric energy absorbed most of the damage, but the impact sent him flying into the ground.

Cyborg quickly aimed his arm cannon at Surge and fired it, hitting him in the center of his chest. Surge fell back again as Cyborg stood above him with a snarky grin.

"Had enough?" Cyborg said in an arrogant tone.

"Not even close." Surge grunted.

Surge then lit up and fired multiple bolts of electricity at Cyborg. He struck him a few times before diving in and sending his boot to his face. Cyborg staggered back and glared death at the ex-soldier.

"Out of juice?" Surge quipped.

"Screw prisoners." Cyborg grunted.

The two charged at each other with all their strength and speed, Cyborg was strong but he wasn't fast. Surge dodged his attack and sent a strong surge of electricity through his punch and into Cyborgs face. There was a brief flash of light before Cyborg fell back onto the ground unconscious.

"To quote your better half, Boo-yah." Surge chuckled as he turned to see Lantern standing over an unconscious Raven.

"Two down." Lantern huffed. He then turned towards the two young villains who just stood by Deathstroke and Frost unimpressed.

"Two to go." Surge said in a low voice.

Dusk pulled out his bladed tonfas as Star readied her staff. The two circled around the two heroes like tigers before devouring their prey.

"What happened to you two?" Surge asked. "Who's this councilor and what happened to Gotham?"

"Surrender and we'll tell you." Dusk said as a sadistic grin spread across his face.

"You couldn't take me back home, Jason." Surge snapped.

"Yeah well…" Dusk whispered as his face along with Star's glowed amber. "You're not back home."

Dusk dashed towards Surge with his tonfas ready and sliced away at his chest. Surge quickly stepped back barely avoiding the tips of the blades.

He eventually ran out of room and acting fast caught the young warrior's wrist stopping his attack. Surge delivered a headbutt to the center of his face knocking him back a bit. Dusk merely wiped his nose and grinned as his face lit up again.

He threw his tonfas at Surge, who used his electricity to manipulate a shield and deflect them. Dusk quickly broke through his shield using his Adonis strength and rammed him in his stomach with his shoulder.

Surge was sent back and received a roundhouse kick knocking him down on the ground. His vision was blurred temporarily before he was lifted up by his throat and was now being chocked.

"Guess you'd wish you were in Kansas right now huh Dorothy?" Dusk joked as his grip tightened.

Surge felt the light leave his eyes before gripping Dusk's wrist and sending a powerful electric charge through his body. Dusk let out a painful scream before loosen his grip, that's when Surge powered down and watched as his body fell to the ground.

"I'll be heading back when I'm done here." Surge grunted.

Surge looked over to see Lantern deliver a punch to Stars face knocking her out as well. The two then made their way over to Deathstroke and Frost and released them from their hold.

"They should have just killed us when they had the chance." Frost grunted.

"What are you two?" Frost asked as Surge helped him up.

"We're not with them we don't even know what's happening." Surge explained.

"Whoever you are…" Deathstroke groaned as he leaned up off the table. "They know you now…They catch you…You have the stones to refuse their amnesty?"

"Who are they working for?" Lantern asked. Deathstroke responded with a scoff.

"Who's the only one who could keep Meta's like them in line?" He asked rhetorically.

"They mentioned Jayden, is he the one in charge?" Surge asked. This time Frost let out a laugh.

"He only thinks he's in charge." He chuckled. "He gave Shadow Gotham just to shut him up."

"Hal, Surge, are you there?" Wonder Woman asked through Lantern's ring.

"You better get back here fast." She said with urgency. "Sinestro and Leonae are here."

"Sinsetro and Leonae?" Lantern asked.

"They're attacking citizens who are…" The line went dead and Lantern's face broke out in a scowl.

"We're on our way." Lantern reassured. "I need to recharge my ring, then the four of us are gonna take a little trip-" He went silent when he saw Surge lying unconscious on the ground and Deathstroke and Frost gone. "Walked into that one."

He quickly woke Surge up who jumped to his feet and looked around before slamming his foot on the ground.

"Dammit, they snuck me from behind." Surge grunted.

"Forget them for now." Lantern reassured. "Leonae and Sinestro are attacking Gotham."

"What, damn." Surge grunted again. "Alright, let's go."

'This is only going to get worse I can feel it.' Surge thought as he and Lantern flew back to Gotham.
