Black Light ch 3

General Randall was walking out of his office followed by McMullen "So do you think that will work?" asked General Randall walking through the halls of the USS Regan making his way up to the deck to give his inspection of this gaggle of children calling themselves Young Justice with McMullen in tow.

McMullen was matching Randall's pace, he adjusted his glasses and smoothed back his hair "Yes, I think, but that plan is a long shot, I would need some time to come up with something viable to work like that" he answered the General

"Well it's the only one we have, you better get to work and fast, if were going to end this" replied the General, McMullen nodded. McMullen stopped the General in the hall "I suggest we keep our thoughts and discussions private, we don't want the League's little lackey's poking around in our heads and conversations" "agreed" grumbled Randall, there is one thing in the whole world the General disliked more then Zeus and the League, was telepaths.

Young Justice landed on the deck of the USS Regan, the deck had a bunch of gunships, jets and other assorted aircraft with pilots and marines walking to and from their air craft, they all wore identical black uniforms with an insignia on the shoulder indicating that they worked for black watch. A man in a dark green and white uniform was walking towards them. He had tanned skin and white hair, he had a serious look on his face and he had only one arm, another man followed him, he had dark hair, glasses, and wore a business suite. "Who's the grumpy guy and the creep" Wally whispered to Robin, "That's General Randall, and the guy following him is Dr. Raymond McMullen, CEO of Gentek" Robin answered

"Welcome to the USS Regan My name is General Peter Randall, Commander of BlackWatch and this is Dr. McMullen, CEO of Gentek" McMullen made a slight bow, The team introduced themselves and General Randall then told them "The Doctor and I were just heading out to our new HQ set up in Battery park, we'll brief you their" the young heroes nodded.

Meanwhile somewhere in an ally way a BlackWatch soldier was firing his gun at his attacker, bullet casings raining onto the concrete pavement, the attacker just stood their as the bullets tore through his flesh. The soldier started sweating and praying that the bullets will kill him, his machine gun clicked indicating he is out of bullets he tossed aside his gun and reached for his .9 millimeter but his attacker's arm shifted to a black and red claw then sliced his arm off with ease. The soldier screamed in pain as blood gushed out of his wound, the hooded assailant lifted the man up and shoved him up against a wall "What do you know about Dana Mercer?" growled the hooded assailant, the soldier looked into eyes of his attacker and saw absolute rage, "I'm not going to tell you anything" the soldier managed to say with the claws digging into this throat.

Alex thought for a moment then said, "Wrong answer" Alex snapped the neck of the soldier, he dropped the soldier and then black and red tendrils crawled out from his legs then wrapped themselves around the man's corpse and the corpse was quickly absorbed into his form his biomass shifted a bit then Alex looked into the man's memories then saw where Dana was living, he saw something about BlackWatch going there. Alex looked around then took off running up the side of a building, and started jumping from roof to roof "Hold on Dana, I'm on my way" thought Alex.

The Helicopter descended on the roof of a large grey building, General Randall, Dr. McMullen and Young Justice got out of the chopper and they went downstairs to the general's new office. BlackWatch soldiers guarding the front entrance, monitors showing news channels and computers were in the new HQ.

Randall sat down behind his desk "You are to be assigned to the wise man team, led by Captain Robert Cross" he motioned to a man standing next to him. The man wore completely black, he had dark graying hair and scars on his face.

"This outbreak has been contain into a dozen small areas that are a few blocks in radius. Each area is close to Gentek, the official story is that a toxic chemical spill has happened and the surrounding areas have been quarantined so no one can get close to the Gentek building" said McMullen. Captain Cross, his squad and Young Justice left BlackWatch HQ and began their patrol of the quarantined areas. They walked down the street in a line formation, the street was deathly quite

"Man it's quite, too quite" whispered Wally then they heard gunshots and screaming from around the corner. They saw a few marines shooting at a large, muscular infected, the large creature seemed unaffected by the bullets, he knocked one soldier aside and grabbed another one with it's large hand and bit into his shoulder with its jagged, blood soaked teeth, causing the soldier's blood to spill to the pavement and the infected started to pull out the muscle in the mans shoulder.

The soldier was screaming in pain. The young heroes were shocked and Wally almost threw up, but Captain Cross-didn't seemed fazed by the soldier's death, he just ordered, "Engage the enemy!" The hunter noticed them, he tossed the soldier aside like a rag doll and let out an inhuman roar and charged at them.
