A few days had passed since then and the media noticed Firestorm going crazy as he was flying away from the Daily Bugle communications building; there were reports that college student Ronnie Raymond had gone missing along with Professor Martin Stein. Peter, Kara and Stephanie had been made aware of the situation of Firestorm's origin and how he had gone AWOL from the League. It made them concerned but they had said they would keep an eye out for him.
Right now it was Saturday morning and they were out on patrol as Superheroes as it was the day Jameson would be having his TV interview with CatCo and Peter just knew that something was going to happen today. They were watching the crowd gathered at the Daily Bugle Communications building with SHIELD agents on standby as the monitors would be showing the interview live as Jameson conducts it from his desk at the building.
"Things are quiet at the moment; I am saying 'at the moment' as it was never quiet, not even when we were back on our Earth..." Peter muttered doing his best to strike a dramatic pose with Kara floating nearby and Stephanie next to him. Kara then began muttering about hearing something with her super hearing and Peter then had his mask's heads up display telling him there was a sighting of Firestorm attacking a truck at the bridge.
Peter took Stephanie around her waist (to their redness behind their masks) as he then began web-slinging to the bridge with Kara flying with them. Peter put Stephanie down as they looked and saw Ronnie attack a truck with the people inside down. Kara went to restrain Ronnie while Peter and Stephanie stopped the driver a bald headed African American man with a goatee from shooting at Ronnie with his wrist gauntlet devices.
"You should have stayed away... Anyone who makes Deadshot miss his shot never lives to regret it..." warned the man only for Peter to push him away with Stephanie muttering asking what about Batman. Deadshot stayed silent as Ronnie got out of Kara's grip. Among the people down on the ground were a crazed looking blonde haired woman with a giant mallet nearby and an orange haired man with boomerangs nearby.
"You shouldn't interfere; these guys are all criminals that ARGUS are using to try and kill Jameson and destroy his evidence! They are Waller's personal suicide squad! Stein tried to hide it from me but I got it from him!" Ronnie shouted his hands radiating heat.
"You need help Ronnie; the League says you haven't not been Firestorm for days and what do you think will happen to Professor Stein with him being stuck in your head for so long?" Kara asked as Ronnie laughed bitterly.
"I hope he is in pain in there and will continue to be in pain because it's nothing less than he deserves and he will never get out! Jameson showed me that he turned us into Firestorm on purpose and turned me into ARGUS' unwitting sleeper agent in the Superhero community! I was a pawn and now I will destroy everyone involved in this conspiracy!" Ronnie snapped but then they heard growing coming from the truck.
They heard the sounds of chains snapping and out came a large bulking humanoid shark like creature. "You have done it now... King Shark was to be used as a last resort to destroy your second rate New York City to the ground..." Deadshot muttered to the shocked faces on the trio of teen Heroes.
St. Draemyre; the capital city of the small nation of Dherain which had been overthrown from the rule of the royal family. Inside the palace was a tall muscular man in a black goatee and wearing dark black and red armour with a horned helmet and holding his Electro Axe. The man was of the species known as the New Gods and came from the dark world of Apokolips. He was the top military general and hunter of Apokolips and served under his nephew Uxas who was better known as the feared warlord of Apokolips: Darkseid.
A few years ago after the last failed invasion to conquer the planet by the forces of Apokolips; Steppenwolf had been left behind along with a small army of forces which included the crazed warriors known as the Hunger Dogs. Laying low he had masterminded a rebellion in Dherain using Apokolips technology and it led to him taking over the country recently.
The protectors of this puny little planet didn't even know he was here and they won't until it was too late. He was watching the news of the crisis that they are facing in their own country and it made him grin as it would be much easier for them to fall. He would soon start conquests of the nearby countries and it will lead to him taking over this entire planet.
He will have a kingdom all to himself!
The TV interview between Jameson and Jameson Olson from their offices had gone on with James calmly rebutting the claims Jameson had been making. "Mr Jameson, from what I understand even on your own world; you have quite a reputation. I understand that you have files that you have somehow came into possession of but I certain they shouldn't be used reliably since you have refused to state where you have gotten them from. I am sure the ones coming to you to support this ludicrous 'Superman Theory' just want to stir up trouble. Our Superheroes are here to protect us like Superman, the Justice League, the Guardian..." James had said at one point and Jameson smirked as he had been waiting for him to be brought up.
"Oh yes the Guardian of your own city; CatCo sure loves to prop up this Captain America wannabe without the flag design. You're acting as the mascot of your news media Mr Guardian." Jameson replied with the audience watching the interview taken aback by his accusations. James was about to reply when Jameson continued on "I have other info detailed that I have instructed my people to upload onto the Daily Bugle when we got to this point but here you go:"
The news report was now showing security feed of STAR Labs of James coming out of a chamber and being fitted into the Guardian suit. There were gasps all around as James' eyes were widening.
I was going to try and write a new chapter for Advent Requiem but I have writer's block at the moment. I wanted to do something that could be related to Disney before the UK release of Disney Plus tomorrow.
