Dark Genesis ch 4
The Bioship zoomed over the Atlantic Ocean at top speed, carrying the Young Justice team and the UN operatives.
The group sat in silence for a few hours, quietly preparing for the mission, Wally noticed Chris looking grim "What's wrong?" Chris looked up at him "Oh nothing, I'm just worried about a lot of things, but at the moment I'm worried about what happened in England"
"Well no one knows" said Leon who sat behind him, watching the ocean pass beneath them "That's why we're going aren't we?"
Chris nodded "Yes but I just feel like I should help track those two whack jobs down, it was my job to guard the president and I screwed up" Leon just shrugged "Orders are orders and it couldn't be helped, those two were rather good" "So how long have you guys been with the UN" asked Wally.
Leon shrugged "Few years, before we were with a group called STARS but we joined up with the UN" "What's STARS?" asked Aqualad.
Leon and Chris went silent then Leon said "Can't tell you, top secret" and after a few minutes of discussion there was a beeping sound emanating from the Bioship's computer
"What is it?" asked Chris
Miss Martian's eyes narrowed "The ship's picking up a signal, its faint but it's a transmission of something" there was another beep and the crackle of static poured out of the speakers.
Through the static they heard a frantic voice of a man "This is Admiral Winters, to any ship or aircraft… warning you to stay away…. nation is under quarantine" there were loud gunshots and a man screamed "Sir their coming!" there was more static and the panicked voice of Admiral Winters returned
"I don't have much time but I warn you, if you value you're life, proceed no further" there was a boom and a clang of metal.
Admiral Winters roared, "Keep firing men! These bastards must have a weakness" the crackle of static returned drowning out the Admiral's voice but the team heard screams of agony and terror mixed with gunfire and what chilled the group the most was a man's laughter heard over the gunfire then everything went silent.
The group sat in silence for a moment, the transmission started back up again from the beginning repeating the Admiral's frantic warning and the battle against an unknown enemy till Miss Martian switched off the transmission.
The first to speak was Kid Flash "That was disturbing"
"Yeah no kidding" said Artemis "The transmission must be in a loop, warning any ships or planes near by to stay away" said Aqualad.
Chris frowned "So the entire nation was placed under quarantine why?" Leon scratched his chin muttering "This seems familar" then the ships computers beeped again "What is it now?" asked Superboy.
Miss Martian looked at the screen then answered, "Proximity alert, we should see the coast in about a minute" everyone looked out the window, seeing a strip of coast growing closer on the horizon.
The ship passed over tall cliffs and speed past green countryside till with in minutes they saw the city of London on the horizon Chris's eyes narrowed and he gasped at what he saw, everyone saw what he saw and they gasped as well.
The city was in ruins, the sky had patches of thick black smoke rising over the city, buildings had scorch marks from fires, and the streets were jam packed with abandoned cars and trucks.
"What happened?" breathed Miss Martian but before anyone could answer there was a loud beep with flashing red lights "What's wrong?" asked Superboy
"Some one's firing at us!" she exclaimed, there was a loud bang and the bioship shook violently, its altitude decreased quickly.
The Bioship shook violently and started plummeting at an alarming rate. There was another bang, rattling the ship again, the ship soared over ruined buildings and it started skidding and grazing rooftops.
"Hang on!" yelled Miss Martian who was trying to keep the ship flying but alarms started blaring and the ship started hitting more rooftops until finally it crashed and skidded to a stop. Meanwhile on a faraway rooftop Victor and his cloaked friend saw smoke rise from where the ship had crashed.
Victor placed his rocket launcher down; he picked up a pair of binoculars. He studied the crash site and he whistled, "Wow, I reckon about six blocks" he turned to his friend grinning "New record".
There was a loud howl followed by more howls, Victor smiled "Oh looks like the hunts about to start" he jabbed his friend in the rib lightly "oh we got to see this" he picked up his rifle and dived off the edge of the roof whooping, his friend sighed and dived after him.
Miss Martian's eyes opened to the sound of beeping.
She was on the floor of the bioship, everyone else were scattered all over the ship, Miss Martian managed to stand up, and soon everyone else awoke, groaning. "What happened?" asked Kid Flash "Someone took a shot at us, that's what" said Chris he picked himself up "Is everyone else alright?" asked Aqualad everyone nodded.
The Windows were all dark and the screens were off, Chris, Jill and Leon checked their weapons and they were fine, Robin climbed out of the Bioship and saw that they had crashed into the ground floor of an apartment building. He looked around and found that the street was deserted "All clear" everyone started climbing out of the ship and started making their way down a street, in the calm cool air they heard a animal like howling and it was close.
