Atlantic Ocean
Avery P.O.V
We were currently racing down to Atlantis to try and stop whatever was going on down their. Sound vague well it was and I hated it.
"So I am still am trying to understand this. He just punched you and left." I said to green Lantern.
"Yes. I still don't know what you don't get." He said.
"It's idiotic at best suicidal at worst. Someone clearly wants him dead and they knew how to do it. He has to realise he is walking right into a trap." I said.
"Maybe that's what he wants." Wonder woman chimed in.
"I've done my fair share of stupid and dangerous things but I always had a fireteam at my back." I said
"Thats why we need to get down their as fast as we can." Superman said. "And when this is over we are having a discussion about your methods." Superman said.
"We can have it right now. You can go shove it and leave me alone. That should save you enough time for you to grow up and realize that life isn't black and white and that you can't automatically decide that I'm as bad as the people I put down. Because I promise you if you think I'm brutal now you haven't seen me really angry. That was a good discussion now shut up and get ready because we got company." I said as multiple atlantean ships came into view. Suddenly the radar started going crazy with several more targets appering around us.
"It's an ambush!" J'onn yelled. The second those words escape his mouth the ships fired. I didn't have enough time to evade so I simply yelled for the others to brace. Right as I yelled that the torpedoes impacted and everything went black.

Avery P.O.V
When I came to I was in a dark room so dark that I could only see the general outline of the room due to the light coming in from under the door. I put my hand up to my head and I realized my helmet was gone and I was chained to the wall.
"Click were are we and more important were are the others?" I asked
"The javelin was destroyed and we were all captured for some reason you were singled out to be delivered to some mysterious ally of the rouge atlateans." Click explained.
"Is-"
"Yes Diana was captured but her vitals were fine." Click said
"That's not what I was going to ask." I said quickly
"Yeah right" Click said dismissively.
I heard footsteps coming from the otherside of the door. Click quickly dissapeared right before the door flung open and in walked several atlantean guards as well as a commander holding a golden trident.
"I am king Orm of Atlantis and you shall refer to me as such surface dweller." The man now know as Orm said in a pompous manner.
"you smell like a fish and look like a male stripper go take a shower and put on some pants then will talk. I said flatley. He quickly pointed the trident at my throat looking absolutely furious.
"If my allies hadn't specifically told me to deliver you to them unharmed I would have taken your head for that comment." He said.
"Your pointing a oversized fork at me." I said as I calmly pushed the trident away.
"This is the Trident of Poseidon the weapon wielded by the rightful king of Atlantis! Not some overside fork." Orm said.
"If it is the weapon of the rightful king then why do you have it. Last time I checked attempted regicide dosen't make you a king." I said.
"I am the rightful king and I will prove it by doing what my pathetic brother never could do. Wiping out you pathetic surface dwellers." Orm boasted
"Fratricide, regicide and genocide, you certainly are some king. But dosen't Aquaman also have a son." I said.
"I have already dealt with that problem." Orm said proudly.
"Infanticide to you certainly are a peice of work." I said
" It doesn't matter what you think surface dweller. My ally is here to talk to you now." Orm said as he turned to leave the room. Finally his mysterious ally appeared and sight of it my blood ran cold and for once in a long time I was afraid. Because walking past Orm and his guard was a hive knight insted of carrying a sword or a hive boomer like most this one held a large axe in its hands and it smiled at me.
"I am Mogar, the fist of Nokris and I bring your death Guardian." The knight said in a deep voice that seemed to echo around the room. He raised the massive axe over his head and as he brought it down I pulled my arms up as hard as I could breaking the chain holding me back and materializing Dark Drinker. I tried to block his strike with my sword and his axe collided with it at full force breaking my sword in two. When my sword shattered a massive blast of void energy shot out slamming me into a wall and putting the hive knight through the door and out into the hall. I groaned as I got up and Click healed my wounds. I looked down at my broken sword and I picked up the crystal. The metal was replaceable but this crystal had come from Oryx's sword willbreaker and wasn't.
"Die guardian!" The hive knight roared as it charged me. I blinked upwards and equipped 4th horseman. I landed right behind it and fired. The shot impacted the knight causing damage but not killing it. The knight spun around and hit me out into the hall. I made a note that the halls were all made of ice. Were not near Atlantis that wasn't good. My thoughts were interrupted when the knight tried to hit me with it's axe again. But before it could strike a flaming knife hit it in its eyes and it fell backwards howling in pain. I was shocked and I turned to were the knife came from and saw the last thing I expected to see.
"Jayden!" I said in shock.
"Sheesh I'm gone for five minutes and you're already in trouble." He said as pulled me up off the ground.
"Try seven months not five minutes." I told him.
"What!" He yelled.
"Remember it was a vex portal we got spit out a different points in the time. Also your going to see a lot of weird stuff so I'm going to have to ask you to roll with it." I said.
"Weird how?" He said suspiciously.
"You'll see." I said.
" Die Guardian!" The knight roared as it brought its axe down. We both jumped backwards and a avoided the strike. The ground started to crack underneath the axe and it suddenly gave way. We were both dropped into a large pit. As we were dropping I lost track of Jayden. Suddenly something rapped around my waist and I stopped falling. I looked up and saw Diana holding her lasso.
"I thought you could fly." She said.
"I float I don't fly." I said
"Well you need to fix that." She said. As she pulled me up my Jayden's voice came up on my radio.
"You alright Ave." He said.
"Yes Jayden im fine a new friend of mine caught me." I said back.
"Whose that?" Diana said.
"That would be Jayden another Guardian. Say hi." I said to her
"Um. Hi Jayden I'm Diana." She said in confusion.
"Nice to meet you." He said.
"Where did you land?" I asked him.
"Well I landed in a another tunnel and at the end of the tunnel there is some sort of machine and it's guarded." He said.
"That's the atlanteans machine. There using it to melt the polar ice cap and flood the world." She said.
"What?" I said dumbfounded.
"Is she high?" Jayden said over the radio.
"No I'm not and you heard what I said." She said.
"That has to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard. that is cabal levels of stupid. And they almost blew up half the system as a ransom note." Jayden said.
"We will talk about it later just destroy that machine Jayden." I ordered him.
"Yes sir." He said sarcastically.
"Wait Batman and Green Lantern are down there too." Diana said.
"Jayden, Jayden come in, there are two friendlys down there with you." I said over my radio. No answer and I could definitely hear the sound of gun fire in the distance. "He isn't picking up. Can you tell the two of them not to attack Jayden." I asked her.
"I lost my communicator in a fight." She said sheepishly.
"And I don't have the necessary frequency inorder to contact them." I said now beging to regret my grudge with Batman.
"I mean it's not like Jayden is a complete psychopath and would immediately start a fight is it." She said. My silence was answer enough.
"Jay prefers high functioning sociopath." I said.
"He is going to kill them isn't he." Diana said.
Jayden P.O.V
I charged into the room and was immediately surrounded by multiple guards.
"Halt surface dweller!" One yelled at me. I looked at the twelve guards surrounding me and I pulled out Thorn and checked to see if it was fully loaded.
"Put the weapon down!" Another one yelled at me. They clearly didn't want to start a battle so close to ther machine.
"Word of advice. Never tell a hunter to drop his weapon." I said. In one quick move I shot a guard dead and ran foward. I ducked under a swing of one guards sword and quickly shot him as well. I kicked one in his leg and then stabbed his head with my knife. I jumped into the air and as I did a burning inferno manifested around me glowing knives appeared in between my fingers. In one swift move I spun around throwing all the knives killing all the remaining guards. "Well that was disappointing." I said as I walked up to the controls of the machine. "Kreig do you mind." I asked my ghost.
"Give me a few minutes." Kreig said.I watched him disappear into the machines inner workings, I could hear him working around in the machine. Around a minute after words something appeared on my radar and suddenly something flew past my head and stuck into the side of the machine. I calmly looked at the strange shuriken like object and turned around to see a man in some sort of bat like costume and another man glowing green with a green and black costume on.
"I don't know who you are but step away from the machine." The Bat one said threateningly.
"I'm going to give you one chance to run or I will kill you." I said. All the Bat one did was throw another one of those shurikens I simply shot it out of the air then leveled the gun at him. " Your funeral." I said as I fired. Before the bullet could hit him a green wall appeared infront of him and the bullet hit that insted craking it. I quickly started firing into the wall craking it more before it shattered.
"What!" The green one yelled. He raised his arm and his ring started to glow. Before he could do whatever he was going to do I through a flaming knife at it. The knife hit the ring and in a blast of energy the man was thrown back and knocked out.
"Lantern!" The one in black yelled. He turned around just in time to see my foot heading right towards his face. He managed to barely duck under my strike. He tried to punch me but I caught it and twisted his arm and in one swift move I threw him across the room. I drew my knife and got into a combative stance. He charge me and we started trading blows. I was quickly gaining the upperhand in one quick move I slashed my knife across his chest cutting his costume. After that I jumped back and drew and leveled my gun at his head. Then something slammed into my side throwing me to the ground.
"Are you alright?" The new man asked the bat one.
"I will be fine Superman just deal with our friend." He said.
"Superman? Seriously that has to be the single most egotistical and stupid name ever." I said.
"Stand down. You will be given a fair trial." He said.
"Im done with this." I said. Solar energy surrounded my body and a flaming hand cannon appeared in my hand. He looked at me in shock. I leveled my gun at his head. But before I could fire a blast of lightning hit the ground in between us and Avery's voice cried out.
"Will you stop acting like a complete psychopath and think before you fight." He yelled
"I'm not a psychopath!" I yelled at him. Kreig then appeared beside me.
" I deactivated the machine... What did I miss?" Kreig asked.
"I will explain everything later Kreig." Avery said.
"He's a Guardian!" Superman yelled.
"Yes he is. Everyone meet Jayden Winters. Hunter of the Last City. Kingslayer and Dredgen." Avery said.
"Wait Dredgen!" The woman standing next to Avery said.
"Not Dredgen Yor. It's just a title I was given." I said to her.
"Jayden meet the Justice league. The ones present are Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, and Wonder woman." Avery said. I simply starded at him in shock and confusion. Finally I make out several words.
"What the heck."
