Previously on In Blackest Night:
"We're screwed." Beast Boy stated, clutching his head as he sat up.
A hole materialized right above them, where a cannon glowed red, preparing to fire.
Arrowette couldn't bring her gaze away from the cannon. "That, we are."
Chapter 7: Shock
Jason's whole life seemed to flash before him in a few short seconds, and he resisted the urge to snicker at the cliché moment. He was sure the Flash could have tried bringing them away; it's just that the cannon was much too big to run away from, and the results would be more than one from a nuclear bomb.
That was something no one could run from.
As the alien cannon fired, and a beam of red shot out of its black centre, somebody flew up towards is and extended her hands out towards the firing cannon. The laser was stopped, right in its tracks, by some kind of invisible shield, which absorbed all its energy and left it as nothing.
A bright blue cape fluttered in the wind that followed.
The Justice League members couldn't believe their eyes. It was her.
Her hair had been cut short, but it was still that same auburn, and those eyes…
It was Megan.
"Miss Martian." Martian Manhunter murmured, staring at his long-lost niece, awestruck. Both at how her powers had grown and how she was actually there, in front of him, after ten long years.
The team's mouths practically dropped open, just from the sheer power that she'd absorbed and managed to deflect. It was almost impossible – even Martian Manhunter hadn't tried to deflect it. It would have been suicide. So… what kind of superhero was she? The shocking thing was, she couldn't have been a day over 18.
A loud battle cry was heard, before a buff, black haired boy that wore the red S Shield on his black shirt flew right at the monstrosity, gaining momentum until he his fist met the armour of the mother ship… and pierced right through it. Blue Beetle almost spluttered at that. No one had been able to pierce through armour that thick! They had to be battered so much before anything could penetrate that skin.
The boy kept on going inside the mother ship, punching his way through.
Superman's hands clenched at his sides as he stared up at his clone. He was… back.
A dark skinned boy wearing a sleeveless red shirt and black pants, rode on a wave. The difference between him and La'gaan was that his wave was much sleeker, and much faster. He extracted two bearers from his back, making a pair of electrical whips, and jumped, following the first boy into the mother ship.
Aquaman seemed speechless, his mouth opening and closing like a fish, as clichéd as that sounded.
If any of the members of the team were to look at their mentors, they'd be shocked to see that they were all suffering the same blow as them, and maybe even more. The leaguers were just standing there, staring at the teens blankly.
The two boys had broken out of the mother ship at the other side, both landing on a rooftop, and the ship wobbled in the air. How had they been able to do that so fast? I might have been thanks to their combined power… but that was still so much! How powerful were they, really?
"Look!" Arrowette pointed out a figure, wearing entirely green, with long blonde hair, on a rooftop, aiming an arrow with green coloured fletching at the figure. When she shifted slightly, they realised she was actually holding four arrows – all at once.
"No Way," Oliver gasped, his domino-mask covered eyes widening as he recognized the skilled archer. The last time he's seen her, she could hardly shoot two accurately. That was… a huge improvement.
The girl fired, and all four met their mark, or so they thought. It looked like it, as the arrows were activated, a powerful surge of electricity went through the mother ship. It tipped over at the side, nearing the ground dangerously.
A long, black haired girl wearing a human magician's outfit joined the green skinned girl from before. Both girls floated in the air, observing the falling battleship without much thought.
A cackle echoed through the air, leaving Batman tensed up, as Jason was shocked to see. His mentor hardly tensed up like that – only if he were in serious, serious trouble.
At that moment, a slim built boy with short, black hair and a domino mask covering his eyes swung above them, his hand holding onto the string of a grappling hook. His costume was colourful, consisting of Yellow, green, red and black. The boy let go of the hook at its climax, jumping into a few tumbles in the air before holding out his hands as though he were suspended in the air.
For a few seconds, he looked like he was flying, frozen in the air, before he somehow pushed forward and landed on the sinking spaceship. Extracting something off of the side of the ship, he shot another grappling hook and swung safely down onto the ground.
A strong burst of wind blew past them, whipping around Arrowette and Cassie's long hair. Everyone wobbled slightly from the sheer force, and only The Flash seemed undisturbed by it, though remaining shell-shocked and frozen to the spot.
A boy wearing a traditional canary yellow and bright red costume with the traditional lightning bolt sign in the middle of his chest stopped right below the falling mass of alien technology.
Impossible.
They'd all seen those costumes before, those masks and those heroes.
As if from another world, maybe another time.
The Flash landed on his knees, still mostly in shock. He could only whisper softly, the name of his lost nephew and partner. "Kid Flash."
The magician girl raised her arms, her eyes glowing slightly. "Hsart neila lla tcelloc." Her voice seemed to echo around the city loudly. In a second, all of the bits of debris and Aliens, as long as their technology, flew up and were attracted to one place, above the falling mother ship, as though there was a specific 'alien tech magnet' placed above it.
The teenage speedster grinned, placing his goggles back onto his eyes, and zoomed off into a circle, making a tornado-like wind structure that contained all the alien tech. Kid Flash shouted out, "Zatanna!"
The magician girl raised her hands and cast another spell. "Hcnert anairam otni latrop yaw eno."
The air seemed to be still for a moment, before a loud, ripping sound was heard, and the sky seemed to just tear into two. Doctor Fate stood star-struck. "She opened a portal… and ripped the material between worlds. That's… too advanced…"
The canary yellow and red speedster angled his running to the side, pouring out all the debris into the gaping hole that led to pitch black. When all of it was gone, the girl, 'Zatanna', waved her hand into her body, and the portal disappeared. Kid Flash stopped running, saluting the two floating girls playfully with a grin on his face.
The dark skinned boy had appeared a few feet before them. In a commander's voice, he ordered confidently. "Young Justice, Fall in."
The colourfully costumed boy landed next to the leader, flanking him on the left, while the speedster reappeared on the right and pulled up his goggles, an easy smile on his face, flanking him on the right. The archer stood next to the speedster, a slight scowl on her face and her hand clutching a large green bow. Beside her, floated the magician-girl, with a black top hat balanced stylishly on her black locks. The Martian girl floated daintily next to Robin with the teenage superman next to her, a nonchalant look on his face.
Nobody moved.
Nobody spoke.
The two groups stared at each other, one in disbelief and shock and the other in warmth and relief.
Wally was the first to take action. He sped over to his uncle, knocking him off his feet.
The two speedsters lay on the ground, Wally on top of his uncle. The Flash stared back at his nephew in shock. "…Wally? Is that really you?"
Wally West laughed out heartily before he hugged the scarlet speedster like there was no tomorrow, nodding. "Uncle Barry!"
