The group of sidekicks was staring unflinchingly at their mentors, " I mean they do have a point, you guys did train them for a long time I think giving them a team of their own won't hurt " said Tempest, or as everyone here knew him as Percy Jackson, kid flash smiled at the most powerful founding member of the Justice League, Tempest did always have a soft spot for the proteges even if he was very against letting kids fight the good fight in the beginning but he came around to the idea.
"but they are kids " exclaimed Flash, glaring at Tempest like the other heroes with proteges, "yes and my protege is not even a day old, pretty sure that him fighting is illegal," said Superman only slightly bothered by a clone of himself but he grew up with Percy and the stupid to absolutely dumb things Percy has done throughout their childhood was enough to make Superman immune to weirdness, plus a clone of himself is pretty cool, "yeah well it is your fault that you brought kids, humans that aren't even allowed to even drink a beer to life-death situations," said Tempest not backing down from the glares of his team-mates, the said teammates gaze wavered in a little bit of guilt, this caused Tempests eyes to soften, he didn't like guilt-tripping his friends but it was necessary to make them see sense, they brought kids to the field in the promise of making a difference and now they have to fulfill that promise, "plus a team would give them good experience "
"fine, but if they are fighting the good fight, they are doing it on league terms," said the gruff voice of logic known as Batman.
The protege did a little victory dance while the heroes gathered around each other " we are going to need a meeting to discuss the new protege team, the inner circle will all be attending, anyone else who wants to join can join " said Batman bluntly.
"yes, I think I will add Donna into this new team," said Wonder Woman.
"Hmm, yeah I think little Dona would be a good addition to the team " Percy agreed with his fiance, being the only one who has met Donna since he is allowed to go to Themiscaria for being a legendary and respected hero and a 'perfect male' with the respect of Artemis, also cause he is Diana's fiance
" I will also include M'gann M'orzz, my new protege into the team," said martian quickly not wanting to watch the eventual flirting festival between the longtime couple.
Before anyone could say anything the ground started shaking violently and all eyes went to Percy who looked unfazed but still confused " not me " he yelled as the earth around Cadmus started glowing a bright blue, Tempest started flying giving everyone else the silent command to fly, and green lantern made a green platform for everyone who could not fly and levitated the platform with his ring.
"Okay everyone gets to the -53 floor I can sense someone there " yelled Tempest over the defending rumble of the ground and started making a hole in the ground using his earth domain and all of the league and proteges descended to the lowest floor,
as they reached the ground they were greeted by a giant circle of blue light that was radiating energy and a lone scientist in his 70s and white hair that stuck out in odd angles near a lever " you are too late heroes, " he said in a rough voice" the transporter had opened and any second now a very powerful weapon will come out of and ruthlessly murder all of you " he ended with an evil laugh and as the portal stopped a kid about 16 years of age appeared on the platform in light battle armor and in the middle of eating an apple, he looked like a younger version of Tempest "oh come on cant a man eat his blue cookie in peace," he said and then looked around and noticed the people staring at him but more importantly at his otherworld self, and moved towards Tempest. this caused all the heroes to tense but Percy just waved his hand at them in a dismissive matter causing the heroes to lose a little tension but not all, to whoever smart and powerful Percy was, he had the worst-best idea, worst because it always involved himself nearly dying and best because they somehow disobeyed every law of science but still worked by some miracle.
"Tempest why am I in your universe " asked the 16-year-old stranger asked demandingly
"well the portal brought you here " replied Tempest as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, but he answered informally so he must have known who the stranger was, this caused most heroes to lose the tension in their shoulders and look at the scene more closely, both the handsome face and build of Tempest and the stranger was very similar but Tempest was maybe 3 inches taller then the stranger and had a better and more attractive build but the stranger was still very attractive like a superman attractive which is like 1 level below Tempest, they were interrupted from there ogling of the 2 handsome men, by the evil scientist who looked furious, " no, you are my weapon of destruction you obey -" before he could screen more the stranger just extended his arm and the guy fell down instantly.
this caused almost all the heroes to stiffen again but Percy quickly reassured them "the guy is alive just knocked " he said not taking his eyes of the 16-year-old who was glaring at him for the less than helpful armor
"delay that meeting we were going to have I think I am going to add a member of my own " yelled Percy to the Heroes behind him and before anyone could protest he and the strangers disappeared in a sea-breeze
-line break - location: Jackson Tower in star city-
the guy who came out of the portal = Perseus
JL Percy is Percy or Tempest
The two beings appeared in the middle of a nice looking living room with an amazing view of Star City through the glass life-sized window that made one of the giant walls in the living room, directly opposite to it was a large bar with a wide assortment of alcohol, there was also a large sofa and a huge flatscreen TV, the stranger could spot a red lacy bra that was the size cup of the daughter of Zeus that was engaged to Percy, that brought a smile on his face remembering the reaction of everyone when Tempest came back to the city and announced that he was engaged to the Daughter of Zeus what was her name, uhh, 'Diana' yes that was her name.
"Please don't tell me you already impregnated the daughter of Zeus, trust me, wait for at least a century before you even think about having offspring, they are very taxing creatures," said the stranger with false innocence in his voice.
"shut it Perseus, " hissed Tempest " we were just having some fun, she can choose whether or not to get impregnated and I have a deal with a fertility god, I can choose whether or not I want to impregnate someone".
"I am just messing with you, anyway this is a great tower you have," said Percy complementing the view of star city from the window," thanks I have a tower like this in every major city in the US and a few out of the US," said Percy
"nice, now why exactly am I here instead of in the portal room where I can go back to my universe," asked Perseus impatiently
"well, this to help you " started Percy and before Perseus could provide a snarky comment he continued"look I can't claim to know what it is like to lose the love of your life and see most of your friends die since the only love I had is Diana and she is immortal but you need to move on and I am not going to give you some awe-inspiring speech that won't work no, I offer you a new life in this universe, there is a new team being made full of new superheroes, it will give you time to make new friends, lovers and get used to this new world, what do you say " he finished bringing a hand out as if offering him the deal
Perseus didn't move for a minute before he shook his more powerful counterpart's hand"doesn't hurt to try " said Persues warily
Line Break - location: Justice League moon base
Percy flashed into satellite 0 that took him a year to build, originally he just hollowed out the moon while maintaining its density by magic and science because he wanted another base of operation but in the end, he decided to make it the main base for Justice League instead of a mountain, which all of the JL was surprised ad very awestruck at the revelation that he had a base bigger than the USA.
He moved his personal new base to the sun and it is the size of Earth, but only Diana and Clark know that.
He reached the meeting room and opened the doors to see almost all of the league already engaged in a conversation but as he stepped in all the attention turned to him" guys I know I am fabulous but that doesn't mean you have to stare " sated Tempest striking a pose.
no one laughed... though crowd
"who was the mystery boy," asked batman demandingly, as flash sped to his back and slung an arm around his shoulder " yeah, and tell the truth cuz Superman betted that it was you from another universe which is just crazy and- " before Flash could continue his rant, Percy interrupted him "and very true ".
Half the league passed some cash to superman which Superman threw into the utility belt that Percy had gifted him on his 21st birthday Percy noted off-handedly but was more satisfied at the fact that Diana just smiled smugly instead of handing Superman money which meant that she remembered their long talk about how he was friends with other versions of himself.
"Okay, so I am going to guess you guys want an explanation " not waiting for a response he continued"okay so basically there is an infinite number of universes all with their own laws on how they work, each universe might have other infinite earth or just one earth or maybe even no earth, there is this border called the galactic border and all the universes in this border have a special version of me because the entity(s) who created these universes were originally a version of me from another Universe, all versions of me are family and a last line of defense, we have a beautiful universe in which only different versions of me are allowed and no mortal can even comprehend its beauty, the version of me that came through that portal was part of my close friend list. which is basically the versions of myself that I know well and can rely on, normally we stick to our own universe but I want him to stay in this universe for some time for personal reasons and no it is not my place to say it" Tempest then took a deep breath " that was a mouth full"
Looking at his friends he just saw a few surprised faces and a couple of confused faces but none of them were facing denial, they were superheroes and they have interacted with another earth before so this was not that surprising, the surprising part was that God with a capital G was another version of Percy but not the weirdest thing they had heard of, they once met a child of Superman and Batman and they all agreed to never physically talk about it or think about it but it did destroy any level of denial for anything.
"basically, mini-me will be joining us soon," said Percy.
"Please, don't tell me he is as powerful as you," asked the Flash nervously not wanting to meet a teen-aged version of Percy, in his mind, Percy was impulsive enough, a teenaged version of him would be terrifying reckless. but that was his opinion
"Nah, he only has the powers of Posiden and is still just an immortalized demi-god not a full-fledged primordial with domains like me" replied Percy casually reliving half the league.
"well then let's discuss the new team in more detail," said Batman knowing he won't get more info from Tempest.
AN; so I am rewriting my Percy Jackson x Young Justice crossover because I really wasn't going anywhere with the first one and I have a much better plot for this
Tempest is Percy Jackosn and he is OP but the one we are going to be looking at AKA the Percy that came for the portal is not OP like the JL Percy.
JL Percy is Percy from the Justice League and YJ Percy is Percy from the young justice team and the dude we are going to spectate
This is also part of my new series Darkness in us which stars Dark Percy
