Chapter 16 Metas


Inside Star Labs

Lincoln and Malcolm Merlyn sneak past Star Labs workers and camera to get to the Meta cells. Two security guards block the entrance to the cells. Merlyn whispers to Lincoln

"Hey Rookie, how about you show me what you can do?" Lincoln agrees with him and flips to beside the guards. He lifts his right hand up at the guards and fires his heat beam at their guns, the guards get angry, see Lincoln and storm towards him. Lincoln sweep kick them both making them fall over. Merlyn fires an arrow and it opens shooting out a large net. Lincoln moves out the way and the guards are confined. Merlyn says "Well done Rookie, you have some potential" The two of them enter the meta cell room and see a vault with a cylindrical steel door, red paneling, and blue wiring. Lincoln looks around and asks

"So how do we get to the Metas?" Merlyn answers

"Well, Rookie, we need to just get past this door, but first" He fires an arrow at the ceiling and hits a camera destroying it. He then shoots another arrow at the door, it sticks to the door and beeps for five seconds and explodes. The dust clears and the door is unscathed, this infuriated Merlyn. Lincoln exclaims to Merlyn

"Hey Merlyn, how about we try using the keypad over here?" Merlyn looks at Lincoln in awe and says

"Good catch Rookie" Merlyn walks over and hacks into the keypad. The door swings open and the two enter and views a bunch of singular blue-colored patted cells. They walk over to another keypad. It says "Metas in cells: 3" They are baffled from the fact, Merlyn says

"Seems that they either escaped or was transferred to Strikers, Arkham, or Belle Reve" They read further "Metas include Weather Wizard AKA Mark Mardon powers: weather manipulation, Peek-A-Boo AKA Lashawn Baez powers: teleportation, and Kilgore AKA Ramsey Deacon powers: Technology manipulation" Merlyn then exclaims

"Let's get some help" He presses a button and the cell containing Weather Wizard comes in front of them. Weather Wizard gets up and looks at the two of them. Merlyn exclaims "Mardon, how are you?" Weather Wizard looks at him with annoyance "Well, I'm here to ask you a question. How would you like to help us at the Legion of Doom?" Weather Wizard smiles and says

"Sure why not, it's not like I have anything to do" Merlyn presses a button and the cell opens, Weather Wizard quickly walks out and stretches his arms a bit. Weather Wizard says "That feels good, have you guys met that Johnny Quick guy yet? He broke my wand and locked me in here." Lincoln answers

"I escaped them when I broke out of Strikers" Merlyn scrolls down on the keypad and then Peek-A-Boo's cell came in front of them. She is laying on the floor and Merlyn asks

"Hey, Peek-A-Boo was it?" she nods yes. Merlyn continues "How would you like out?" again she nods yes "All you have to do is help us out alongside the Legion of Doom" She agrees and Merlyn opens the cell. She says

"Finally, that felt like forever" She looks at Lincoln "Awe, cute costume, so you want me to join your little club?" Lincoln answers

"We do and think about this, alongside us, you will never see this prison again" She smiles and exclaims

"I guess, I'm in," Merlyn says as he presses a few buttons

"All that's left is Kilgore" The cell shows up in front of them. Merlyn asks "Kilgore, want to join the legion of doom?" He replies

"What do I get out of this deal?" Lincoln answers

"You get to leave" Kilgore contemplates for a second and says

"If I must" Merlyn opens the cell releasing him. Merlyn says

"We have to go Reverse Flash, Captain Cold, and Heatwave are waiting for us" They all exit the room but Peek-A-Boo interrupts and states

"I have a faster way"

Meanwhile in the center room

Reverse Flash, Captain Cold, and Heatwave enter the room and begin searching. Captain Cold asks

"Any idea where it is?" Reverse Flash bolts over to him and answers

"I need access to that terminal over there but there are power dampeners that can block my speed surrounding it. So I need ur help" They all run over to it, Heatwave and Captain Cold take out their heat gun and cold gun and shoot the wall. After a minute of continuous fire, the wall breaks revealing the Cosmic Treadmill. Reverse Flash bolts over and says "So this is going to take a little while, so make sure it is still intact when I get back or else" Heatwave replies

"Be quick" This makes Reverse Flash roll his eyes. Then suddenly around them appears Merlyn, Kilgore, Peek-A-Boo, Weather Wizard, and Lincoln. Lincoln states

"We got the Metas from the Pipeline" Captain Cold replies

"Good work Rookie, now we need to stall for Reverse Flash, Let's go" They all go into the next room. Reverse Flash starts running a warp to Earth-3.

In the next room

As they enter, they all slip and fall on the floor because the floor is surprisingly icy. Captain Cold says

"If word got out about this I would be done for" As they get up, two figures appear from the floor, it is Killer Frost and Mirror Master. Merlyn asks

"Killer Frost, Mirror Master, what are you both doing here?" Mirror Master replies

"We wanted some new gear, and Star Labs has gear, problem solved," Killer Frost asks

"So who is the rabbit?" Merlyn replies

"New recruit, just call him Rookie" Suddenly a yellow blur passed them. It is no other than Kid Flash, he says

"What is this, a villain reunion party?" The villains look at him with anger and Heatwave says

"Actually, we're here for the Cos" He is interrupted when Captain Cold covers his mouth. Weather Wizard exclaims

"Well there more of us, let's take him down" out of nowhere a voice yells out

"Maybe not, but how about a few Teen Titans to even the odds" The voice's owner reveals himself to be Beastboy and beside him is Raven. Weather Wizard then tries to strike Kid Flash with his lightning but he dodges and runs around them. Peek-A-Boo, Captain Cold, Heatwave, and Weather Wizard follow him. It is left for Kilgore, Merlyn, Killer Frost, and Lincoln to battle Beast and Raven.
