A/N: See the first chapter for the author's note. I do not own anything from Young Justice or Harry Potter.
MOUNT JUSTICE
SEPTEMBER 7, 06:41 EDT
Harry and Hermione debriefed with Batman on what happened during the visit they took with Aqualad, Superboy, and Megan to Atlantis. In the room next door, Superboy and Megan got ready to go to school, and they talked about how Superboy had chosen the name Conner Kent for a civilian identity. Harry was listening to what he considered his brother talk to Martian Manhunter, Megan and Red Tornado. Harry suddenly snorted when he heard what name Superboy was using for his civilian identity.
Hermione stopped in the middle of her sentence and said, "Harry what are you laughing about?"
Harry then to Hermione and Batman said "I heard Superboy chose the name Conner Kent for his civilian identity."
Hermione, Batman and Supermagus all knew about Superman's secret identity and also found this funny, but Batman didn't outwardly show that he found this amusing.
Hermione hit Harry on the arm and said "Harry it's impolite to eavesdrop on conversations that don't involve you."
Harry rubbed the area Hermione hit out of habit and responded with "yes Mione."
Having settled that Hermione then said "Anyways now that the debriefing's finished let's get ready for school."
Harry and Hermione changed into their civilian clothes before they went to the Zeta-beam terminal to get to Metropolis where they were going to school.
MOUNT JUSTICE
SEPTEMBER 11, 12:41 EDT
The team was being entertained by the latest prank pulled on their enemies by Harry, Sirius, and Remus with Hermione's assistance. The four of them had pulled off their largest prank yet with them unknowingly getting six of the seven cabinet members of The Light. The League of shadows and the Kobra from the cult of Kobra had also been pranked by the four of them. In addition all of the inmates at Bell Reve had gotten pranked as well by the four pranksters. The prank had started forty hours ago and with a few exceptions had ended about twenty hours ago. The team was able to see the results of the prank because Hermione and Harry had used technomagic to transfer all of the scenes onto a flash drive. The couple had also made the pranks unable to be traced with either technology or magic, so the victims were still unaware of whom the perpetrators were.
All of the inmates at Bell Reve had eaten food laced with a special potion Hermione had made. It caused each prisoner to see the superhero they most feared/hated instead of their fellow inmates. The prank had caused the inmates to panic for a few minutes as everywhere they looked they saw the person they disliked/feared the most. The panic had stopped a few minutes later as one inmate realized they were seeing things that weren't there and convinced the other inmates of this. It was a little late by then as Amanda Waller who ran the prison had activated the shock feature on all of the inhibitor collars in an attempt to restore order. The story had made the news and had been put down to the inmates going crazy on each other.
For Kobra he saw all of his followers suddenly feel indifferent about their leader and no longer see the crazed man as a god. In a move that was unlike the usually calm delusional man he started running around claiming he is a god to his followers, but it fell onto deaf ears.
In Bailya Queen Bee got thrown into her own prison by the people that enforced her rule as they saw her for what she really is, and further found that her ability to make human men do what she wanted was once again negated.
The League of shadows was having a meeting in Gotham City when the prank was activated. Ra's al Ghul found that his hypnotic failsafe commands he had put in his minions had failed spectacularly at that moment. This was really a bad time as all of his minions at that moment saw their leader and were made to believe it was Batman instead. The large group of assassins beat their leader to a state of unconsciousness rather quickly, but after their leader was unconscious they saw who they had actually beaten up and were rightfully scared. The second part of the prank had then activated and caused all of Ra's al Ghul's minions to look like Batman down to the costume and voice, but not the face except for what was visible through the costume.
In this way Batman's secret identity was still kept completely secret, but the minions still wailed on each other as they thought Batman had infiltrated their hideout. When Ra's al Ghul regained consciousness three hours later he would find all of his minions except for Sportsmaster unconscious and sprawled out on the floor. The man would have killed them all as they looked like Batman, which made him think they were mocking him. Fortunately for the underlings at that moment the minions had stopped looking like Batman, which the prank was designed to do as soon as Ra's al Ghul regained consciousness. Ra's al Ghul still punished his minions when they awoke for falling prey to a prank, even though that was hypocritical as he had also fallen for the prank. Ra's al Ghul had been immensely relieved when he found that his hypnotic failsafe commands were working again when his minions were awake again.
For Lex Luthor he had found himself glowing the color of the emotional spectrum that represented him most (orange/avarice/greed). In addition all of his office supplies magically became Superman memorabilia, which sent him on an uncharacteristic rage around his office building. If anyone took the time to listen to what he yelled, they would have heard him yell it was all Superman's fault.
Unfortunately for Lex Luthor he had a reverse notice-me-not charm on him so anyone in his vicinity had taken notice of what had happened to the despicable man. Included in the people who took notice of the prank and the results was one Lois Lane who happened to be there for an interview with Lex Luthor, which resulted in the prank making it to the headlines. The glow around Lex Luthor had faded in time with the other pranks but the Superman memorabilia had not changed back to their former state. As a result Lex Luthor had to buy all new office supplies for his office including the furniture.
The Ocean Master had found that his uniform had mysteriously appeared on him while he was with his brother/king, which resulted in his secret identity being found out by his brother. In addition to ensure that his secret identity was uncovered he had been spelled to tell the truth. The result of this prank was that Prince Orm had been exiled from the kingdom of Atlantis and had his diplomatic immunity revoked.
Vandal Savage had found himself seeing the Justice League surrounding him and had fainted after several minutes of hyperventilating. He would wake up several times over the next twenty hours hyperventilating again before fainting.
Klarion who had weeks ago been able to resurrect his cat had found himself unable to find his familiar Teekl, and panicked as he thought he was going to be shunted back to his home dimension. He had stopped a minute later when he had realized that he could faintly feel the presence of his familiar and came to the conclusion that he had been pranked. After undoing the magic done on his familiar he vowed to get revenge on whoever had done the prank. Klarion would be waiting a long time as the prank had been made untraceable by the four pranksters.
The pranks had with the mentioned exceptions lasted twenty hours and had caused large amounts of mayhem to the organization known as The Light. Queen Bee had been released by her people after the prank had ended, and had surprisingly not punished her former prison guards as she realized she too had been pranked, and they were not at fault.
The news story of the prank that Lex Luthor had been under was still on the news, with the story being that Lex Luther had glowed orange due to his involvement in unscrupulous activities. The team had decided that the prank was a success and told the four pranksters that they looked forward to more. Superman, Wonder Woman and Giovanni Zatara had tried to berate the four pranksters but failed as they could not keep a smile off of their face. This had told the four mischief-makers that they were obviously not serious and so they largely ignored it.
NEW ORLEANS
SEPTEMBER 14, 16:53 CDT
"This is Cat Grant reporting live from New Orleans's historic French corridor, where the Martian Manhunter and Superman are in mid-battle against the so-called Terror Twins, who have been on a three state rampage. Wait it looks like Supermagus has just joined the battle and, appears to have soundly defeated the twins."
Sure enough Harry had appeared out of nowhere due to the speed he had gone at and had delivered a punch to the twins with enough force to draw blood. The punch had been magically charged with a paralysis spell and sent the two uncontrollably flying into a warehouse with Harry in hot pursuit of them. At this point Aqualad and Red Tornado came in and put inhibitor collars on the two which negated their superstrength. Harry flew in through the hole at that point and canceled the paralysis spell he had put on the twins as there was no need for them anymore.
Tommy remarked in a heavy southern accent that he didn't feel right, and that just moments ago he was going toe to toe with Superman. While blood still dripped out of both of the teens noses, Superboy and Megan walked in side by side. Superboy wore an outfit that was an exact match to what Tommy Terror wore, with a necklace on that Hermione had charmed to make those not in the know that he was the real Tommy Terror.
Superboy said "congratulations. That's more quality time than he's ever given me."
Megan then touched Tuppence Terror for a second, and Superboy said "got your inspiration, sister Tuppence?"
At that point Megan shapeshifted into an exact replica of Tuppence Terror and said, "I believe I do, Brother Thomas."
The real Tommy Terror then said "somebody tell me what's goin on."
At this point Batman walked out of the shadows and said "It's simple, they're under arrest."
BELLE REVE PARISH
SEPTEMBER 16, 21:55 CDT
The fake Tommy and Tuppence Terror were being transported to Belle Reve while Megan thought back to when they had been debriefed on the mission.
Flashback
The Superboy, Superman, Supermagus, Wonder Girl, The Martian Manhunter, Megan, Red Tornado and Aqualad were present in the cave as Batman talked about the next mission.
Batman said, "This past Fourth of July four ice villains staged simultaneous attacks. Mr. Freeze, Icicle Jr., Killer Frost, and Captain Cold were all easily apprehended, perhaps too easily. Cold and Frost were immediately sent to Belle Reve Penitentiary, a federal prison designed to house supercriminals. Seventeen year old Icicle Jr. was sent to a juvenile facility, Mr. Freeze to his usual cell in Arkham Asylum, but Freeze petitioned the court to be declared legally sane and Junior sued to be tried as a legal adult. As a result both await transport to Belle Reve, which seems to have been their goal all along. I'm sending the two of you in to find out why."
During the speech the holoscreen behind Batman showed pictures to accompany the briefing.
Aqualad then said "who inside the prison will know their true identity?"
Batman answered when he said, "no one, we can't be certain the prison staff aren't compromised."
Hermione at this point walked up to Superboy and said "Superboy to assist with the mission I charmed this necklace to hide your real identity as long as you wear it. It will change form to blend in with the outfit of the person you are trying to copy."
After that explanation, Hermione handed Superboy the generic necklace that she was talking about.
Harry then said, "The two of us will be hidden outside of the prison in case the two of you need help."
End of Flashback
A/N: The rest of the episode occurred like it did on the episode except that Harry and Hermione were watching the prison in case someone escaped. As a result The Riddler was caught, but was sent to Arkham Asylum after someone finally realized that the lunatic is clinically insane.
A/N: That's the end of the chapter, and the next one should be up within a week. If you're wondering why Harry wasn't on the mission instead of Superboy since Harry is a Metamorphamagus it's because his magic would have fried the collar. That would have obviously given Harry away when he didn't respond to the shock Amanda Waller gave each prisoner to demonstrate it. The next chapter should be out within a week, and please review.
