What happened?
Megatron simply stared as a mind controlled Transformers fought against a titan, Trypticon, Megatron's strongest warrior, the size of a city, yet he was losing to a mere human.
"He shall make an excellent addition to my armada." Darkseid said as he stared at his greatest warrior.
"Yes, of course." Megatron said simply.
"Do I hear a hint of dislike in your voice?" Darkseid asked forcefully.
"This boy is our enemy, he should not be allowed among our ranks." Megatron argued.
"My ranks, and you should not be one to talk, as once I have no need for you, you shall be expelled from my ranks." The emperor explained and Megatron simply turned and walked away.
"No need, I'll simply leave now." Megatron said simply, just as Trypticon was destroyed on the spot, and Transformer returned to Darkseid.
"Come, we shall fit you with some, suitable armour." He explained and without a word Transformer followed along. M'gann sat in her prison, tired from a lack of food and water, but luckily she was a Martian, and could last a lot longer than humans could without those two substances. The rest of her comrades were gone, they'd had their minds taken over by Darkseid, all except Optimus, who was forcefully defused from Levi in an attempt to make the brainwashing process easier on Levi. She didn't know how, but somehow she got through it, somehow she resisted, but knowing that she was resistant, she would be killed soon.
"Let him go!" Optimus' voice echoed from the cell next to her own, before Levi and Darkseid passed the cell doors, leading the Martian to attempt to get up, but found it was harder than she thought. Darkseid and Levi entered a large room at the end of the prison, to find Cyborg, Raven, Red Hood, Flash and Supergirl, all in different clothing, with eyes as red as a Red Lantern ring.
"It is time to prepare yourselves, the battle will take place on this day." Darkseid explained and the group all nodded at the same time.
"Darkseid, the weapon is prepared." Vandal said as he emerged from the shadows.
"Good, now all we require is the means to power it." Darkseid said as he looked back to the cells, or more specifically Optimus' cell.
"Get the supplements Megatron acquired for us." Darkseid ordered. Ratchet stood at his computer in the Autobot base, devising a plan with the assistance of Batman while a few other heroes stood around and waited for orders, Superboy, Red Robin, Robin, Batgirl, Bumblebee, Mal, and Superman.
"Don't worry Kon, we'll get them back." Superman encouraged as he placed a hand on his brother's shoulder.
"I know Kal, I'm just worried about what risks we'll have to take if we do." Superboy expressed, before there was a load beeping sound, and Ratchet's screen changed to a map of some sort, with the decepticon symbol beeping on it.
"It's a Decepticon message." Raf said as he logged in through his lap top and examined the message.
"Starscream?" Bulkhead suggested as he walked over, but then the image appeared and showed the last person they expected to have sent a message.
"Megatron?!" Arcee exclaimed as she walked over.
"What does it say?" Sierra asked as she, Jack and Miko walked up to take a look.
"I have much needed information, I wish to speak with Ratchet, so we can get in contact with the Justice League. Sounds sketchy." WheelJack said as he crossed his arms.
"It seems that Darkseid doesn't know of our alliance yet, Kon and I are coming with you." Superman said as he flew over to Ratchet.
"Ratchet you're not actually going, are you?" Bumblebee (transformer) asked.
"I will do what is needed to be done." Ratchet said as he picked up a ground bridge activation remote and punched in the coordinates.
"If Megatron attacks ill cut off his arms and legs." Superboy explained, before the ground bridge opened. Megatron paced back and forth in the middle of a forest, alone, no decepticons, no villains, no one else, though his pacing was stopped when a ground bridge opened just near him, and after a few moments Ratchet emerged.
"I see you received my message." Megatron said as he turned to face the Autobot Medic, before Superboy and Superman emerged from the ground bridge.
"I see you have already been allied with the Justice League." Megatron said as he lowered his head slightly.
"Get to the point." Superboy ordered impatiently as he flew closer to Megatron.
"Transformer, the Martian, Kryptonian and the other humans are on Apocalypse with Darkseid." Megatron explained.
"This is information we already know Megatron, you better have something useful for us." Superman explained.
"I also know that Darkseid plans to use a super weapon to destroy what you call, the watch tower." Megatron explained.
"When?" Ratchet asked as he took a few steps forward.
"If he stays on task, it should have fired by now and will be travelling towards us now." The decepticon leader explained.
"Ratchet got a massive energy signature from Apocalypse and it's heading for earth." Arcee's voice said over the coms, and Ratchet looked up at Megatron in surprise.
"It's not aiming for earth it's aiming for the watchtower, Batman evacuate now!" Superman ordered over the League coms, back at the Autobot base batman placed a hand to a second comlink.
"This is batman, large energy signature heading for the watchtower, evacuate effective immediately." Batman ordered, and on the other side, Captain Atom received it.
"I have a better idea." Raf said as he used his laptop and opened a ground bridge in the watchtower.
"Batman something just appeared, similar to what you left in." Captain Atom's voice explained.
"Go through it it'll bring you here." Batman explained.
"Is that all you have to offer Megatron?" Ratchet asked.
"No, the name of the new Zoom may be of some use to you also." The decepticon leader explained.
"So tell us." Superboy ordered.
"You once knew him, as Wallace West." Megatron said and both the Kryptonian's eyes widened as they turned to each other.
"That's impossible, Wally died 9 months ago." Superboy said and Megatron shook his head.
"He survived, he was sent to what we call the shadow zone, a place which your earth would have been sent to if that device was to have gone off. While there my accomplice, Soundwave, allied him, and tricked him into freeing them both from the phantom zone, on Apocalypse, where I was first allying myself with Darkseid, the boy put up a good fight, but Darkseid got to him, and is currently controlling his mind, which is what he is doing to all your friends." Megatron explained and Superboy looked in shock.
"Did you guys get that?" Superboy asked as he held a hand to his comlink, and back at the base the heroes were looking at each other in utter shock.
"That is all the information I can give you Autobot, and you Superman, but I wish to speak with the clone alone, no one listening." Megatron requested and both Ratchet and Superman looked to Superboy, who nodded in confirmation before he deactivated his comlink, and Superman left with Ratchet.
"What do you consider yourself towards Transformer?" Megatron asked and Superboy simply stared at the Decepticon leader.
"He's my foster son." The clone said simply.
"I see, meaning you care about the boy?" Megatron suggested.
"Get to the point." Superboy ordered impatiently.
"I see you are not one of patience, very well." Megatron said as he put his hands behind his back.
"I have two topics that you might find quite interesting." The decepticon leader said.
"You gonna keep talking or are you gonna explain?" Superboy explained and Megatron laughed slightly.
"Of course. Do you know of his true origin?" Megatron asked.
"He was kidnapped by Cadmus and fused with Optimus." Superboy said simply but Megatron shook his head.
"Before that. When we first landed on earth, the organisation Spiral approached us, they wished to know of our technology, I had left for my search for Dark Energon, but from Soundwave's secret files, Spiral and the Decepticons had conducted, experiments. They were able to infuse small pieces of Cybertronian technology into humans, though only two survived, and one was Levi Plestart." Megatron explained and Superboy looked in shock.
"You mean he was already part Cybertronian?" He asked and Megatron gave a nod in response.
"Though he was unstable, so he was given to agent Riven to try and give him a connection to humanity. She taught him to control himself, to fight, he became agent Beast. (Beast Wars Easter egg) He spent five years undergoing training, and when he was sent on an assassination, he turned and knocked the people he was working with unconscious, awakening his powers, he could transform into anything cybertronian, but it was unstable, so he gave a secret request to the leader of Spiral, and was sent to Cadmus to receive a stabiliser for his abilities." Megatron explained and Superboy just floated there, staring at the Decepticon.
"He would have returned to Spiral, if not for the Justice League interfering with our plans, his memories would have been restored, but the drives containing them were erased." Superboy got a serious look as Megatron finished the first part to his story.
"You said there were two survivors, who was the other?" He asked and Megatron smiled.
"A girl, by the name of Ruby Helsphere, or rather, Agent Dime. She was partnered with Levi and Riven, but her powers were too unstable, so she was the first to be sent to Cadmus, a stabiliser was fitted, an Autobot that crashed on earth millions of years ago, by the name of Elita One, an Autobot who had a close connection to Prime. But she slipped into a coma, and she was put into stasis, where she remains to this day." He explained and Superboy took a deep breath.
"Why the change of heart?" He asked.
"Because, Darkseid will be coming for earth, and I want Unicron alive for now." Megatron said simply, before a ground bridge opened just behind him, and he walked away. Superboy sighed and shook his head, before the sky was illuminated purple, and Superboy looked up to see a bright purple stream of light shooting past the planet, with an explosion halfway through, so he quickly raced back through the ground bridge to find most of the Justice League, but not everyone.
"Not everyone got off, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Aquaman, Rocket, Wonder Girl, Blue Beetle and Green Lantern were still up there." Batgirl explained as she pushed some buttons on her holographic screen.
"On it." Superman said as he prepared to fly to the destruction point.
"Wait, Green Lantern energy signature coming in fast." Batman explained, and Superboy, Batgirl, Red Robin, Wonder Woman and Superman raced out to find Hal Jordan flying down with his ring making a box, containing the heroes caught in the explosion, but he was severely injured also, and as he landed he fell unconscious.
"Cassie!" Red Robin yelled as he raced over alongside Wonder Woman to Wondergirl.
"Let's get them inside." Superman ordered as he picked up Green lantern and moved the heroes into the base.
"That was no ordinary blast, it had residue of Dark Energon." Ratchet explained.
"The decepticons?" Smokescreen suggested but Superboy shook his head.
"It was Darkseid, he was trying to make sure earth had no protectors." Superman explained.
"Speaking of, what did Megatron want to talk to you about?" The man of steel asked.
"Just some things to do with their alliance with Spiral." Superboy said simply, not wanting to reveal what had actually been revealed to him. Artemis stood in her temporary room, wearing Apocalyptic clothing that Wally had provided for her. She was staring out at the planet, thinking of a way to escape, but with un-distractible Parademons right outside the door and a thousand foot drop from the window her chances were low. Though her thoughts were cut short when Wally sped in and wrapped him arms around her waist.
"I'm back." He said in a seductive tone.
"Who are you again?" Artemis said coldly.
"Come on babe, don't be like that, you know it's me." Wally said and Artemis turned around.
"You look like Wally West, but you're not, Wally is kind, caring, cocky, and is a hero." Artemis explained and Wally laughed before he forcefully pulled her towards him.
"Bullshit." He said and forced a kiss, but she pushed him away.
"This isn't you Wally, Darkseid is screwing with your head. Your eyes aren't red, they electric blue, I remember waking up and looking into them, the dedication, the love, the happiness. These eyes are full of fear endurance, hate, evil." Artemis explained as Wally slowly walked forward and pushed her back to the railing, where he leaned over her.
"That man, is dead." Wally said with an evil smirk.
"Zoom, report to me immediately, it is time." Darkseid's voice echoed through the room, and Wally sighed before he walked back, and picked up his Zoom mask and raced to Darkseid, who was accompanied by the mind slave heroes, and Vandal Savage.
"Contact our allies on earth, it is time to mobilize." Darkseid ordered Vandal, who nodded before he picked up a communicator.
"Attention, if you are hearing this you are one of Darkseid's allies." His voice echoed throughout all the villains of earth, all around the world.
"It is time, Earth is to become ours, so prepare yourselves for the incoming battle." The voice echoed to Gotham, where every villain known was gathered.
"Jolly, hehehehehehe." Joker said as he pulled out two knives.
