Internet was acting up again

My good 17 ish faves...any chance you'd leave some reviews? After all, if there is a problem during the story, a review is what tells me where to fix it. I just got one of those in my next story to be updated, and I am currently working on a way to fix it.

And again, should some Marvel characters appear; villains, harem members, light minions, ect.

Nightwing; Oh my only reviewer here, I thank you

Recap

"Well well, if it isn't the little student who learned too much" Icicle cackled, firing a few ice crystal shards that destroyed the cloak, revealing the college student Caitlin Fairchild, looking as meek and mousy as she did before.

Though oddly dressed in a oddly baggy spandex bodysuit.

"Do you even know what your bosses are going to do! They are going to poison children and turn them into weapons! Do you feel guilty at all..." she tried to get him to see reason...seeing as he was a teenager like the targets. During the last year, Caitlin had been trying to stop Dr. Nemo from unleashing the same, if improved, gas he used on her on others...and had gotten on the Light's nerves for the very same reason.

Thankfully, after the first few tries she learned they controlled the Government and stopped forcing them to kill off new officers.

"Don't even bother with your college psychology, therapists make me want to KILL THEM!" Mammoth charged straight at the girl, angry over how she had previously severely injured Shimmer, his sister, on a previous pursuit.

"YOU IDIOT!" Icicle yelled as the girl gritted her teeth in raw anger as her body began to grow. She became, by all definition, a version of Wonder Woman when it came to attractiveness, with her breasts, hips, height and weight all increasing, though the weight all went into her severely compacted muscles.

So, for a 300 pound girl, not only was she immensely attractive...but the fist to Mammoth's face that sent him flying straight into, and knocking over Blockbuster, showed that she also hit hard.

Harder than Superboy.

End Recap

Gotham City

The Light, despite being made of several very smart people...did make mistakes.

One of these, was underestimating the cops of Gotham City as corrupt, ineffective idiots. Overall, that is true.

However, one of the cops, James Gordon, happens to be an actually decent human. Capable of solving crimes himself, the Light didn't bother to apply starro tech to him because they assumed that he just had Batman deal with all the crime while he collected a pay check.

So, he had noticed how Batman had been acting differently over the last year, subtly differently but enough that, after he gave the Police investigation results for Batman about the retreating super powered girl, and watching him and the new Robin vanish, he sighed as he turned to the hidden girl behind one of the stair wells near the Bat-Signal.

His pride and joy, the red head athlete and honor roll resident, his daughter Barbara Gordon. "You see what I mean. If that was the Batman before...he would have noticed you" again...

Barbara frowned, she had always been a huge batman fan, and harbored a crush on his sidekick, Robin, that was nearly as strong as her crush on her friend, Dick Grayson (Who, with his guardian Bruce Wayne, had moved out of Gotham City after Wayne had sold Wayne Tech to Lexcorp and retired to a remote island away from any mail service).

So, via media, she may have stalked him for a year, then got up the nerve to activate the Bat-Signal...

The aftermath of that was the only time her father had ever grounded her.

"I always thought that when you said he was different, it was because he was mourning Robin #1...but the way his senses were off...and how his success rate changed over this year" Normally, Batman had a 97% villain capture rate, but this year it was 91%.

In itself, it could be explained by the new Robin and having coordination issues, but the specifics of the crime were off.

In theory, that was more for dangerous criminals like Killer Croc or Solomon Grundy (Villains who had no Light connection), but he was having his failures in dealing with criminals that had been stealing S.T.A.R, Starware and other, independent from Lex and League influence, technology companies, such as Riddler and Nemo (Who were Light affiliated)

"Honey...this is going to...be a hard pill to swallow, but is it possible that Batman has been, bought out"

Before Barbara could let out an anguish linden denial, a voice spoke up

"Its worse than that" the father, duo turned around to see a red haired girl in baggy spandex (where did people get spandex suits anyway?)

"My name is Caitlin Fairchild...and I need your help"

The Gordon Apartment, sometime later

The Gordon's lived in a well off apartment in a normally psycho free area of town. It was nicer than anywhere that the poor girl, Caitlin, had stayed at in ages, and based on how many cups of water she was drinking, she probably hadn't had anything to drink in a while.

Both of the Gordons were contemplating what the young woman had just said. She told them about the attempted murder of her by her college professor turned super villain, how she barely managed to escape from the members of a mysterious group called the Light, who had control of not only the super villains, but the Governments and Justice League as well.

About how she had been on the run from them for about as long as the missing sidekicks like Robin 1 and Kid Flash, who in reality had managed to avoid being controlled like their mentors and were believed by the Light to be either in hiding, or dead.

"I find this...hard to believe" James had to admit "After all, while I do agree that Batman has been off this last year, but what I can't understand is why they wouldn't have thought of controlling me as well. After all, I am one of the most familiar with Batman, and I could of, and have, noticed he is off"

"The light, as far as I can tell, are made up of 7 Justice League villains, but not the Joker crazy kind. The Light are planners and look at the big picture, but because of that they may lack a few details. One of them would be you, they probably see you as just another Gotham Cop, and not a threat"

"Then why come to me, and make me a threat?" he said with concern. He had enough worries about some crime group like the Falconnes going after him, he didn't need Superman as well.

"I have heard rumors that the Light is planning something big soon...and it seems to be connected to an increase in Gang Activities in many locations; New York, San Francisco, Star City, Metropolis, Gotham...its all over. I fear...it has something to do with the same mutagen that gave me my powers" she had demonstrated them already. "But it has been improved since then; a better survival rate, better range of power mutation..."

"The Light will have a violent, controllable Super Human army..." Barbara said in horrified shock "But...why? They already control the planet, and 8 teenagers" Caitlin and the missing Sidekicks "are hardly a threat. You said it yourself that's probably why they left that loophole about them being driven crazy by aliens"

"I've found that the Light seems to have an agenda against aliens. There is a reason they used an alien invasion as a excuse about the AWOL sidekicks. Their plans seem to involve Humanity, and possibly Atlanteans as well, taking over the Universe, or at least becoming a superpower in it. They already seem to be making preparations to take over Mars"

"Wait...as in Martian Manhunter mars...are they crazy?" James Gordon had to say in shock. Invading a planet filled with super strong telepathic shapeshifters? How could they win?

"They seem to have run out of whatever they were using to control the Justice League before they could secure the Martian Leadership quietly like what they did with our world. Once they do have control though..."

"I found the location of a location in Gotham where they are producing the Mutagen. However, the security system is too well armed for someone like me" who was either clumsy, or a 6,5, busty brawler. "My research shows your a school champion gymnast and have computer skills. I need you to get me in there to shut it down, and figure out what they are planning, beyond a super army"

"But...Barbara" the Commissioner didn't seem to want his daughter to be in a situation like that. However, Barbara had a penchant look

"The Light, do you think they have Bruce Wayne under their control?" she asked. Caitlin frowned.

"I know they have Bill Gates and Steven Jobs...its possible." Barbara turned and gave her father a serious look.

"The Light may be responsible for taking away my best friend" and someone who could have been more "They corrupted one of my heroes" Batman "and may have killed the other" Robin 1 "Even ignoring that, I can't allow them to make your job any more difficult"

James Gordon sighed...but gave his daughter a nod "As a cop, I normally would prefer this to be police work, but as a Gotham Cop, I realize that will just make things worse. This is a Cape's job. Try not to come home breathing fire though" he smiled as she gave him a hug

"I know dad..."

Caitlin had a tear form in her eye at the scene...she wish she knew her father.

In an abandoned warehouse

Lasers, cameras and motion sensors had been rather numerous around the normal looking Warehouse...at least until they had been deactivated with the aid of Barbara's agility with them, the latter two first then when she was in the lasers, which a handy can of laser revealing spray revealed for her, before she found the computer and had them deactivated, allowing Caitlin to get in with her own Computer (which, sadly, had been her College Laptop, and thus lacked the hacking tech that Barbara's, which was a slightly out of date Police model that her father had given her, under the condition that she didn't use the hacking part...well aside for this) to download the information to several USB drives

"These files...you were right...they want to spread the mutation that Professor Nemo used on you to rapidly create more super humans to serve the light. In particular, they want someone with the power to duplicate...Starro tech?" Barbara squinted at the article she had pulled up "Something about it not reacting well to magic, but still... tech is made in factories...so why do they need magic?"

Caitilin paled as she heard that "Starro tech...I've heard that name before...its how 'The Light' have the Justice League, and most world leaders, under their control. It was on the tip of my tongue for a while...

"They can't get any more...that would be a disaster..."

"The Light having more wouldn't be a disaster...rather it would be a blessing" two birdarangs smashed into the floor a bit too close to Caitlin and Barbara as Robin 2 flew at them from above.

"The Light told me to guard the factory while Batman is busy serving the Light's goals. He will be here soon enough, however you will be disposed of before then."

Caitlin grew up as she entered her battle form while Barbara tensed, her Black Belt instincts turning on "Yeah, bring it on, your outnumbered"

"Oh really..." three blasts of water flew at them from different angles. Caitlin used her denser body to shield Barbara from the blasts as Aqualad, and two other Atlantean teenagers flanked them; Aquagirl and Tempest if Caitlin and Barbara recalled from T.V and or previous encounters with them.

"I do believe now that your...outnumbered" Robin smirked "Now then, how much abuse can that form of yours take..."

However, Robin was unable to attack them and find out, for a dark suited Robin (A/N, imagine a stealth teched Robin suit) smashed into him from above, broken glass raining from above as the Aqua's were struck with a blast that followed a chant (Kconk kcab!), as a younger, female version of former Justice Leaguer Zatarra descended onto the ground in front of them.

The darker dressed Robin glanced back briefly at her, before rapidly returning focus to the controlled teenagers.

Unheard to anyone but him, Robin the first had this shocked thought 'Barbara!?'

"So, its the one who came before I saw the light, the Robin who still is trapped by the shadows...Dick Grayson" the new Robin deadpanned as both Robin and Barbara had similarly shocked looks

Omake

Non Canon

Bit off more than you can true

"I'm telling you, this is a BAD IDEA!" Klarion again, disturbingly was the voice of reason as Lex Luthor took to pressing buttons to a projector like device.

"And I am telling you, I have taken accord to ensure no 'Destroyer' is pulled in

What he got...was a little pink haired girl in black with a sword.

"Oh crap" Klarion vanished as Lex gave him a look.

"Its just a little girl"

"WHERE'S KENPACHI-KUN! WHERE AM I! TALK YOU EVIL BALDIE!" she drew her sword as the air radiated with the sort of killer intent that a Superman whose Lois and Ma got raped, then killed with his Pa by the same person, then gloated to said Superman about it with a desire to kill his other friends.

Lex didn't live enough to piss himself...nor did any of the Light...besides Klarion...in fact the entire hemisphere they were in was razed before the teleportation wore off and Yachiru returned to the soul society.

And the destruction of civilization was what the team found as they landed in what was once Gotham City, in front of a destroyed restauraunt.

"NOOOO! WHY! THE FOOD IS GONE...THE FOOD IS GONE! THE GODS OF WELL COOKED FOOD HAVE DESERTED ME! ALL OF ARTEMIS'S COOKING FOR NOTHING! WHY!..."

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!"

While Artemis chased after him with a large stick, Conner and Dick turned to their respective girls, and Rocket.

"You cook well" they decided to nip that one on the bud.

It was true, Zatanna had cooked for her father for several years, and Megan no longer burned her cookies.
