Washington, D.C. - July 5, 00:01 EDT

Mark Desmond, a doctor at Cadmus genetics lab right here in the capital of the U.S, secretly an agent of the Light. Today was suppose to be simple, work on Project Blockbuster, and some routine check ups on the 'Superboy'. But fate was a cruel mistress for he was faced with disorder to his Cadmus, sidekicks four of them no less one being a particularly famous one from Metropolis. They dare step into Cadmus, disrupt his order, and they dare try an take Project Kr!? The weapon!? He would not let that happen, and by orders of the Light they shall be podded and cloned, but at the moment that was easier said than done...

All Desmond heard was a trumpet and the rumbling of nine large creatures charging at the wall of genomorphs, he wised up and got out the way of the charge. Just in time no less, for the nine unique monsters plowed through the G-trolls and the smaller G-gnomes with little effort, Desmond picked himself up from the ground and only heard a maniacal laugh off in the direction of the escaping five. Desmond growled, he reached for his coat pocket only to feel that it was wet, 'Damn it! I have to go fetch another vial!' He sneered.

Boom!

The lower levels was rocked when a large explosion was heard, "Captain, I appreciate the effort you put into this escape plan, but we're trying to escape not be buried alive!" Aqualad reprimanded as he clung to Isobu, who casually kicked away the small genomorphs. Shukaku just laughed in a crazy manner. "Oh what's the matter fish boy! You don't like it hot?" He cackled. "What are these things anyway?" KF poked the back of Matatabi, "We are bijū, we were created by our father some time a go." She politely explained to the fastest boy alive, "And who is your father?" KF asked as the hell fire neko swiped at a large g-troll, "The one riding on Kurama of course." Kokuō answered somewhat quietly as he used his horns to clear a path.

"Kurama-chan has always been a daddy's boy," Shukaku said under his breath, this did not escape Kurama's ear though. Growing a tick mark he turned around bashing a set of G-gnomes with his tail in the process."You wanna go pip squeak!? Or was that last ass whooping not enough!?," Kurama yelled angrily at Shukaku who bumped heads with the fox, "I've been waiting for a chance to get back at you Kurama, just because you have the most tails dosen't mean you're better than me!" He growled, the other four boys just gawked at the display, they acted more like siblings if anything, "There they go again." Son Gokū sighed as he punched another g-troll, "Why can't you two stop it? We're in the middle of a fight right now! Settle this after this is finished." Gyūki scolded them, Kurama just scoffed as he turned from Shukaku. "You should treat your brother with respect Kurama, and stop being mean to him." Uzu stepped in as he chopped Kurama's head slightly, "Hnn..." Kurama muttered lowly.

"There's the elevator!" Robin shouted. They dismounted the bijū they each rode, as they morphed down to a smaller size, the same size the were when inside the room. "Good job now back to the hideout, I'll be home soon." Uzu instructed, Kurama groaned at going back home, but left reluctantly at Uzu's glare in a cloud of smoke along with his siblings. "Being a single parent is hard..." He sighed. "Yeah...anyway we're still forty-two levels below ground and this elevator leads us up." Robin stated as Aqualad ripped the door open, Robin shot a line upwards and proceeded to ascend. KF climbed out on to a ledge and Superboy grabbed Aqualad in attempt to fly. But in surprise of all the boys he fell, "Im falling?" He uttered in shock. Robin threw a bird-a-rang at the wall allowing Aqualad to grab it. "Superman can fly. Why can't I fly?" He sounded disappointed in himself. "Hey don't get down, you can jump really high, just like Superman." Uzu consoled him while walking casually up the wall. "Thank you Uzu." Uzu smiled cheerfully before Robin called out to them. "Uh guys this will have to be our exit." He pointed up at an elevator coming down on them. Superboy broke down the doors and the group missing the elevator. "Hey look more g-gnomes." Uzu casually pointed out. "Oh that's not good." KF stated before they ran down a hall.

'Turn left, brother."

"Go left, left!" He exclaimed, they each followed him as he listened to the mysterious voice in his head.

'Turn right.'

"Right!" He repeated the direction as the went down another hallway only to see a deadend. "Nice...real nice directions Supey, great of getting us caught too." KF said sarcastically. "I-I don't understand. The voice told me to this way and..." He trailed off in shame of leading them to a deadend. "A voice in your head? Hmmm?" Uzu wondered in a straight face. "Why? Whats the matter?" Superboy asked a little worried at his sudden seriousness. "Superboy are you by any chance...schizophrenic?" He whispered in the clones ear. "No." The clone answered flatly.

"No wait! This is perfect!" Robin exclaimed genomorphs in pursuit of the teens, slowed down by weird holes in the ground, showed up only to see a opened vent.

"At this rate we'll never get out," KF groaned, as they crawled through the vents, "Shh. Listen." Superboy hushed the teens. "Are you sure-"Yes Uzu, I'm sure." He said little annoyed at the question of his mental stability. The tapping was heard in the metal vents, "It sounds like-"Aliens!?" Uzu shouted, the four was confused until Captain Uzu started crawling away from them. "Don't worry Newt I'll save you!" He declared as he scurried away at a surprising speed. "Wait! Uzu come back!" Robin tried in vain as he rounded the corner and out of sight. "Who's Newt?" Superboy asked. "Now what do we do?" KF asked. "You keep moving I'll go after Uzu." Aqualad said as he made his way for Uzu. The remaining three crawled away.

Desmond along with Dubbilex and Guardian with some G-gnomes ran through the halls hot on their trail. "Someone, most likely Robin, hacked our systems, deactivating internal security cameras, but he neglected the motion sensors." They ran to the men's bathroom where the genomorphs were closing in on the escapees. "We have them cornered." He opened the door and walked over to the vent were the boys would surely exit. He had a smirk on his face while they drew closer to the vent, the g-gnomes readied themselves. As the vent shot open a group of g-gnomes fell on Desmond. "He hacked the motion sensors." He sounded somewhat impressed. "Doctor Desmond, there's a note on one them." Guardian pointed out. Desmond looked at the closest g-gnome on him and surely enough a sticky note was on its head. "What is this?" He peeled the note from its head and pushed them off, "It's just a picture of a spiky haired boy flipping me off and showing his rear to me." He growled in annoyance. Guardian stifled a laugh, "Is that so doc?"

"Ggrrrr..." He crinkled the paper as his rage started to boil over, those brats!

Kid Flash was currently dashing up the stairwell in trace of red and yellow, knocking down multiple genomorphs as the other four followed behind him. "More behind us!" Robin warned. The genomorphs ran up the stairwell to see...a toll? "I'm sorry but you need to pay a toll before passing." Uzu dressed in toll worker uniform. The genomorphs looked at each other in confusion, they shrugged at Uzu indicating that they didn't have any money. "Well that's going to be a problem, because you need to pay the toll to pass." He stated as they begun to growl and shriek at him. "Calm down sir, or I'll be force to call my supervisor." He reprimanded the g-gnomes, the front one shrieked once more at Uzu. "That's it I'm going on break." Uzu put a close sign out before pulling down a curtain. The g-gnome got angry at the one who shrieked and they both started to argue over who's fault it was, while the others wondered why there was a toll here.

KF exited the stairwell and ran at super speed at a closing metal door but smacked into it as it closed. The hallway became red as an alarm blared over and over again, the others came up the metal door while KF was helped up by Uzu. "We're cut off from the street." Aqualad said while he and Superboy tried to open it, but with no success. "Can't hack this fast enough." Robin said in frustration. "Call your kids over to help open the door Uzu!" KF yelled, Uzu just scoffed at the question, "Are you crazy? It's waaaaaay past thier bedtime, I feel ashamed for summoning them earlier." He crossed his arms, KF gaped at Uzu, they have bedtimes!? "This way!" Robin kicked open a nearby door that led into a another hallway were they ran from the uncoming g-trolls but were cornered by a small army of genomorphs along with Guardian, from the front and the back they were surrounded. Aqualad took out his Water-Bearers forming two blades, Robin took out a two bird-a-rangs, while KF, Superboy and Uzu got into a stance.

Hiss

The horns of the small g-gnomes glowed knocking all but Uzu unconscious, Uzu looked around at his fallen comrades and back up, "Well, hehehe this is awakard hehehe." He chuckled nervously rubbing his head while the horns still glowed.

'Perhaps for the sake of all Genomorphs our brother Superboy shall make up his own mind." Dubbilex stated as Superboy woke up.

'It was you.' He thought in surprise of the familar voice.

'Yes brother.' Dubbilex replied.

'I set the fire and lured your friends down into Cadmus.' He went over his plan of drawing the teens down into the labs of Cadmus.

'And guided me. Why?' Superboy questioned.

'Because you are our hope, the Genomorph hero. You will blaze a trail for all our brothers showing us the way to freedom.' Dubbilex replied as the others woke up, and Guardian was freed from Desmond's control. 'What is your choice brother?' Dubbilex asked, Superboy looked down briefly before looking backup at Dubbilex with determination in his eyes. "I...choose...freedom." He answered.

"Ugh...It feels like a fog lifting..." Guardian groaned slightly. "You alright there Guardian? Or do I have to punch you in head?" Uzu asked, gaining a small smile from Guardian which turned into a serious look, "Go, I'll take care of Desmond." He said, itching for some payback on the doctor for controlling him. "I think not. Project Blockbuster will give me the power I need to restore order to Cadmus." He took a vial filled with blue liquid and poured it into his mouth. He dropped to his knees groaning in pain as his body morphed into a strange looking creature. His clothes ripped as he grew larger, his skin ripped off his body revealing a dark color underneath. He roared after completing his transformation Guardian spoke, "Everyone back!" As he charged Desmond only to be swatted away and knocked out.

Superboy was next as he charged Desmond unleashing a fury of punches on him, before punching the clone back into a wall. Desmond paced towards the clone only to step on a small silver device with a red button on it.

Beep!

Desmond was launched through the ceiling by an explosion after the initial beep. "Woah, you gotta show me some of these gadgets later Uzu." Robin said as he shot his grapple through the hole. "Sure I have a bunch of them too!" Uzu laughed as KF grabbed on to Robin and propeld up. "I hope you got alot more of those toys on you." KF hoped. Aqualad and Superboy jumped through, while Uzu disappeared in a black and orange light and reappeared by the others. "Any ideas?" Aqualad asked the group. "Charge!" Uzu yelled as he blitzed the monster. "Well that is an idea." Robin voiced to Aqualad who groaned a bit and followed suit with the others. KF, being the fastest, made it Desmond first. He slid between Desmond's legs making the monster punch the ground. Uzu grabbed a mallet from his pouch nailing Desmond on the skull, and Aqualad and Superboy rocked him with a blow to the face. He fell over due to KF kneeling down behind him.

"Learned that one in kindergarten." KF jokingly stated as Robin lept over him to throw his bird-a-rangs which bounced off Desmond. "Hey Dezzy boy~" Uzu gained the attention Desmond who got up to see Uzu holding a tiny yellow flower to Desmond. He grabbed it and observed it, the left leaf on the flower curled inward and reeled back and...

POW!

Desmond was sent back into a pillar destroying it, Desmond got up in a rage and charged Uzu but was cut off bu Superboy. Desmond tackled the clone into a another pillar across the lobby and begun punching him further into the concrete structure. Aqualad using his Water-Bearers made a rope to grab Desmond, but the monster just yanked him forward while in the air Aqualad formed a mace to strike Desmond. But the beast caught it and threw it along with Aqualad to the ground, he threw Superboy away at another pillar. KF rushed to the raging monster as he attempted to bring his foot down on Aqualad. Aqualad dodged the foot as KF zoomed by and was caught by Desmond who threw the apprentice of Flash at him. Desmond went in for Aqualad was hit by a train...yes a train.

Choo! Choo!

Uzu road the train as it went about ramming Desmond through the pillars, he pulled the lever to let steam out form the top. Desmond found his footing amongst getting plowed and lifed the train up, "And this is where I get off." He quickly said, disappearing in a black and orange lights again. And reappeared in the middle where he was met with Desmond throwing the train at him.

"Balls!" The train crashed atop him and skidded back into the receptionist desk. "Uzu!" Robin called out to Uzu. Desmond roared but was blitzed by Superboy knocking him into another pillar causing the building to shake. "Of course." Robin said in realization as he helped Uzu out of the wreckage, he pulled up a 3-D image of the room. "What'cha ya got planned?" Uzu inquired as his outfit was slightly tattered. Aqualad came to Superboy's aide as Desmond pushed the boy back and threw him back into the pillar destroying it. "Oh I see." Uzu nodded before teleporting to Desmond, who begun manhandling both the three. He casually tapped on Desmond's shoulder gaining his attention. "You got something on your face."

FFP!

Disappearing in his trademark colors, Uzu reappeared in the air, he swung his foot connecting the blow on Desmond stunning him. He dropped KF from his grasp allowing him to run once more, "Ahh, I'm gonna be sore in the morning." KF groaned. Desmond in a rage attacked Uzu who jumped back near an unbroken pillar, "What's wrong Dezzy boy~ Are you angry? Is it because my boot impression is on your face now~?" Uzu mocked, riling up him even more, meanwhile Robin showed the others his plan. "Come at me!" He jeered as Desmond charged him.

FFP!

Desmond only struck the support beam as his target disappeared. Aqualad began destroying the beams, along with Robin and Superboy while KF helped Uzu with Desmond. "Hey big guy!" KF called out to Desmond making the monster strike him but only hitting air, "Sorry. Try again!" He taunted. "Awww, what's the matter? Is Dezzy boy angry that he can't hit us~?" "It sure looks like, that blue stuff messed with his head." "Or it could that Dezzy boy is too slow to hit us." They continued to taunt the man turned beast throwing him into a blind rage. Desmond charged mindlessly at Uzu just yawned, as he neared him he punched by Superboy which dazed him, allowing him to be tripped by Uzu as he passed by. He slide in the freshly laid water before stopping and being electrocuted by Aqualad. "Grrrrrgggh!" He yelled as Robin detonated the devices he threw into the remaining support beams, collapsing the building around them. "Woo! What a rush!" Uzu popped up from the debris along with Superboy, Robin, Aqualad, and Kid Flash. "We...did it." Aqualad panted heavily. "Was...there...ever any doubt?" Robin panted as well, and then gave KF high-five before wincing in pain. Superboy walked over to Desmond, but found Uzu drawing on his face. "Uhh...Uzu." Superboy asked said blonde. "Yeeesss~?" Oh that was a tone of mischief. "What are you doing-"Finished~!" Uzu stepped back allowing Superboy to see what he drew.

A spiky haired boy, no doubt who, giving a peace sign in victory. "Do you do this often?" Superboy asked. "I didn't do it to Grundy." He answered simply. "Look Superboy, the moon." KF pointed out in his tattered costume. Superboy looked up at the moon becoming mesmerized by the glow of it, soon a dark spec appeared from it to reveal the Man of Tomorrow himself. "Hey look it's Superman, man do we keep our promises or what?" KF nudged Superboy. Soon the wrecked building was surrounded by members of the Justice League, "Hey Supes, how it's going?" Uzu waved casually, the Man of Steel didn't look too amused from the looks of it, "What exactly happened here?" Superman asked looking at the destruction of the genetics lab.

"Weeeeell to put into simple terms-" Uzu pulled out a white board, this time it was a handheld one, and proceeded to draw the events that transpired before their arrival. Many members were lost at the story, mainly due to Uzu's shitty drawings and over the top explanation. "And we defeated Galactus to save the mutiverse from total annihilation...what were we talking about?" Uzu tilted his head innocently. Oh if only the Leaguers could face fault, "What happened here?" Batman cut in sternly, "Oh that well to put into simple terms-"Uzu."We decided to investigate Cadmus." Uzu explained simply after Superman's brief interjection. "That dosen't explain the destruction here." Batman spoke, "I thought I explained that in my drawings." Uzu said befuddled at the Dark Knight. "I think I'm the only person here who understood your...questionable art Uzu." Superman answered causing Uzu to pound a fist into his open palm in realization. This also caused a light bulb to manifest over his head also. "That's right," FFP! He disappeared from sight, and reappeared by Superboy before repeating the process.

"Supes meet Superboy." He presented with a smile on his face, though it wasn't visible through the mask he wore. "Go on." He nudged the star struck clone. "I'm Superboy, I'm Superman's clone!" He stated getting a look of shock from many members of the League. "Start talking." Batman spoke in a nonsense tone obviously wanting more information on what occurred.

After explaining what happen thanks to Robin, because Uzu's explanation kept getting more and more convoluted with each go, seriously what the hell were crab people? Ignoring that, the several members of the League took Blockbuster, formerly known as Desmond, away. The remaining heroes went into two different groups. After MM put a hand on the shoulder on Superman he walked over to Superboy who was glaring at him before. He sighed, boy what a night, "We'll, uh, we'll figure something out for you. The league will, I mean." He stumbled to find the right words, "For now I'd better make sure they get that Blockbuster creature squared away." He turned to leave but looked back at his apprentice, "And you," He directed himself at Uzu, oh boy this wasn't good, "I want you to meet in Metropolis later on tonight," He stated sternly, Uzu sighed in defeat as his shoulders dropped, just knowing that he was gonna get lectured. "Yes I'll be there." He grumbled as Superman flow into the night sky. "Ugh, I just wanna go to bed. Knowing Shukaku he's probably still up, probably tearing up my couch too, making a mess of it. I like that couch, that's my favorite couch." He grumbled to himself as he kicked the rocks on the ground. "Is he serious?" KF said in disbelief to Robin.

"Cadmus will be investigated all fifty-two levels, but let's let make one thing clear-"You should've have called." Flash interrupted the Bat who glared slightly at him. "End results aside, we are not happy. You hacked Justice League systems, disobeyed direct orders and endangered lives. You will not be doing this again this again." Batman finished to the teens. "I'm sorry but we will." Aqualad defied the Bat. "Aqualad, stand down." The king of the seas ordered. "Apologies my king, but no." He stood firm in his decision making Aquaman raise an eyebrow.

"We did good work here tonight, the work you trained us to do. Together on our own we forged something powerful, important." Flash was next to respond after Aqualad finished, "If this is about your treatment at the hall the four of you-"The five of us, and it's not." KF corrected, Robin deciding to step up to his mentor next, "Batman, we're ready to use what you taught us or why teach us at all?"

"Why let them tell us what to do? It simple get on board or get out of our way." Superboy said and finally, "Cause we're a mean green ass-kicking machine that'll leave no ass unkicked in our wake." Uzu topped it off, standing amongst his comrades.

Mount Justice - July 8, 8:04 EDT

"This cave was the original secret sanctuary of the Justice League, we're calling into service again. Since you five-" Batman stopped his briefing seeing a lack of a certain blonde hair teen, where is-

FFP!

Guess who? A flurry of crackling orange and black lights came into view as Uzu stood, still in costume no less. "Sorry I'm late, there was an armed robbery in my neighborhood that I had to take care of before I came." He apologized to Batman who just glared at him, "You shouldn't make a habit of arriving late son." Aquaman reprimanded the teen, "Yeah, but I had to take care of it first, I never turn my back on people in need." He said in surprisingly serious tone, "Just get in line, and don't do it interrupt." Batman stated sternly, Uzu gave a salute before joining his comrades. "As I was saying, since you four are determined to stay together and fight the good fight you'll do it on league terms. Red Tornado volunteered to live here and be your supervisor, Black Canary's in charge of training. I will deploy you on missions." He finished before Robin spoke up, "Real missions?"

"Yes but covert." Batman said. "The League will still handle the obvious stuff. There's a reason we have these big targets on our chests." Flash pointed the symbol on his chest, while Aquaman stepped up to the teens. "But Cadmus proves the bad guys are getting smarter. Batman needs a team that can operate on the sly."

"The six of you will be that team." Batman said as the five became confused at the numbering. "Wait. Five?" Robin asked. "I may not be the smartest when it comes to fancy book learning, but I'm sure there are-let me see-one, two, three, four, five of us here. Unless you can't count Basty." Batman chose to ignore the blonde in favor looking at the door. They looked backed to see a young girl about their age it seems, with amber eyes and shoulder-length red hair. She was wearing a short-sleeved white top with a red X on it, along with a blue skirt, cape, gloves, and ankle high boots.

"This is the Martian Manhunter's niece, Miss Martian." Batman introduced the young girl. "Eh? MM has a niece?" Uzu gawked, "Of course he does, just because he's alien doesn't mean he can't have a family." Flash said with am amused smile. "He's an alien!? I thought he just had green skin and happened look like a Martian." He stated getting a small laugh out of Miss Martian.

"You're funny." She said much to shock of the teens, except Superboy who didn't seem to care. "I'm glad someone finds me amusing." Uzu walked over to Miss Martian to greet her, "I'm Captain Uzu, nice to meet you." He greeted with an eye smile. Miss Martian took the blondes gloved hand and shook it, KF zipped to Uzu's side throwing an arm over his shoulder. "I'm Kid Flash, that's Robin and Aqualad, welcome aboard." He introduced the teens to Miss M as Robin and Aqualad walked over to him. "I'm honored to be here." She politely stated. "Come now Superboy don't be like that." Uzu appeared by him without warning and playfully pushed him to greet Miss M. "I like your shirt." She said a bit embarrassed as she changed her white shirt to black. Superboy had a smile at the gesture as Uzu hooked an arm around his neck, "Today is the day." Aqualad said to Robin.

Unknown Location

A dark room filled with several T.V monitors with people hidden behind them conversed. "Can the light afford to leave Guardian in charge without the g-gnomes?" A male voiced his concerns to the group.

"We have subtler means of control. What concerns me is the children," A screen lit up to show a still image of five boys running through Cadmus, "We now know the League is willing to employ young heroes to do their dirty work. That's a dark twist." He sounded somewhat amused as he finished.

"Yes, but one that can be played to our advantage. Even the temporary loss of the weapon may prove useful, especially with the appearance of Captain Uzu, with his interesting powers. He like everyone else shall see the light."

A/N: And that's chapter two, shorter than chapter one yes, but three will be longer. Anyway thank you for the reviews and whatnot, really didn't think people would find it funny to be honest. And to the review asking about the pairing...I already know what I'll be.
