Answers to reviewers' statements or questions:

Tweek-23: Thank you and as for the number of chapters Year One alone will take, by my guess which may change I see it lasting between 8 and 11 more chapters since some are going to be fairly long meaning that year one alone will be at around 26 to 30 long. So in total maybe over a hundred chapters maybe, can't say for certain by I can say longer than 50 easy. And as for Doom possibly showing up in this story maybe but I don't see the man lasting long in this kind of universe, yes he's a benevolent ruler to his people but he is a villain and that ain't gonna sit with Superman, but I do have a few non Spider-man regular villains in mind that would make good possible additions to the Insurgency but that won't be for a while

Jestalnaker94000: Yes, Juggernaut will pop up again but that won't be for a while, like in Year five when the villains really step up to the scene. Each Year has a specific theme to it. Year one is Superman rising to power mainly and the beginning of the Insurgency, Year two is war with the Green Lantern Corps, Year three deals with Magic, Year four deals with the Gods and Year five will be villains and end just as the video game starts which is everything coming to a head. It's a long wait yes but it is necessary for the plot I'm afraid but trust me when Cain Marko steps on to the field, he'll more than live up to his moniker of the Unstoppable Juggernaut

Also anyone see the new Logan trailer, preferably the international one? Gah! The feels! Never thought I'd see a Wolverine movie where it hits you right in the heart, not gonna lie I almost teared up a bit. Also YES! X-23 is finally making her debut! Wish Daken was too but hey who knows maybe in the next movie

Year one…

"Soooo, you do know that if we do this, there's no going back right?" Spider-man said to Batman as they and Catwoman stood on a roof top

Peter along with the rest of his small group of like-minded heroes were currently preparing to execute Batman's plan of capturing Hawkgirl. What the caped crusader plans to do with her Peter isn't quite sure but he and the rest were reassured that nothing too bad would happen to her

"I know, but right now it's our only shot to keep this from escalating any further than it already has…" Batman said as he watched Hawkgirl in the sky ready to make her move. He activated his com "Everyone get ready to move om my signal"

Peter watched as Hawkgirl swooped in and plucked the war lord up like a mouse and proceed to fly off with him. Woman lived up to her name all right

"Now!" Batman said into the coms

Peter watched as Captain Atom swooped in and snatched the man from the startled winged woman's grip before a bolt of lightning nailed her in the back and caused her to fly into a building before she painfully bounced off it and land right in the alley that he, Batman and Catwoman were above

Peter hopped down and began to approach the winged woman while Black Lightning, the man who shot the bolt, and Huntress appeared before the dazed Leaguer. Huntress activated a crossbow on her arm and aimed it at Hawkgirl

"Night-y night" she than shot the tranquilizer into the woman, knocking her out in seconds while Peter began to restrain her in his webbing

"Okay, just making sure everyone is aware of this, you do know that this is us basically declaring war on Superman right?" Peter said as he shoulders the winged woman without effort and looked up to Batman and Catwoman

Catwoman sent him a smirk "What's wrong Spidey? Worried that this might have Wonder Woman banish you to the couch for a few nights"

"No more like banished from the house… and her life" Peter said as he and the rest of the group quickly made their exit from the scene.

It won't take long for the Justice League to realize one of their own are missing-

"Oh shit!" Peter said with his lenses widening

"What is it?" Huntress looked back in slight concern

"I just realized that Hawkman will kick our asses when he finds out about this" Peter said looking up into the sky for any signs of Hawkgirl's husband. Her much more violent and easily angered husband

"Oh yeah forgot about him…" Huntress said before she shrugged "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it"

"So reassuring" Peter said with a roll of his eyes "If he asks I'm saying it was you!"

Huntress replied with a laugh

…

On the other side of the world Diana was hovering over one of the may refugee camps in Mogadishu. She's come here because war and famine has plagued these people and now the Rainy seasons have come. Disease will soon become another issue for the people and the security forces assigned to protect them aren't making matters any better for the women and children here

Rape. Murder. Abuse. Neglect

'Tonight… it ends' Diana thought as she spotted the general of the men stationed here dragging a poor woman into a tent against her will.

Her rage flared and within seconds she's before the tent and ripped the man out before he could so much as unbuckle his pants. She threw him to the muddied ground and wrapped her lasso around his neck before he even could blink

It was then that she spoke up "COME OUT! ALL OF YOU!"

It didn't take long for both women and the general's men to surround her. She looked around and saw the men aiming their weapons ay her but held their fire in fear of hitting the general. She mentally smirked at that before she looked down at the man before her with utter contempt. She tightened the lasso around his neck as he tried to create some slack for him to breath

"General, you are charged with protecting these people are you not?" Diana said with anger in her voice

The man didn't respond as he was still trying to free himself

Diana looked up at the women who were present "This man will no longer harm any of you. I'm taking him away from here-"

"And then what?" a woman stepped forward "Will you return and protect us?"

Diana was taken back at the request "I…"

The woman continued on the verge of tears "This will not stop. Someone else will replace him, someone worse and the men will still come at night. You believe that locking him up will deter others from doing the same? Please, don't give us false hope. It's too cruel…"

Diana was quite for a time as she thought on what the woman said and couldn't find fault in her logic. She closed her eyes and thought on what she was about to do and it was than her husband's words came to her

"…Tell me Di, how many people are you willing to kill to enforce your peace?"

Diana took a deep breath as she finally found an answer to the question that's been plaguing her for some time now

'As many as it takes…'

Diana opened her eyes and looked at the woman "Your right sister, locking him away won't make a difference"

Than to everyone's surprise Diana placed her hands on the generals' face and squeezed

CRCK!

The men stared in horror at seeing their leader's head crushed while the woman gaped in shock at seeing the man behind their torment finally dead. Diana drooped the man's head and looked to see a man who raised his rifle at her shakily with fear in his eyes

Diana narrowed her eyes at the man "Don't"

The man flinched as if she shouted in his face before he slowly lowered the weapon and looked down at the ground. She then turned to the assemble of soldiers before her and addressed them directly

"Drop your guns!"

Diana watched as the men looked conflicted for a moment but all they had to do is look at her enraged face and the body of their leader to know that they had no chance. The began to drop their weapons in the mud and took a several steps back

Diana watched them for a moment before turning to the women and gestured to the guns "Now sisters, pick them up"

Diana watched as the women slowly began to pick up the weapons and hold them with uncertainty in their eyes. The men she noticed seemed to tense and already some of them looked to be on the verge of panicking

'Good, it's time they learned what fear is' Diana thought as she watched the women begin to aim the weapons on the men who now looked terrified at being on the opposite side of the barrel for a change

Diana than looked towards the women "I will return to you soon. I will not leave you to this life"

"What happens now?" one of the women said as she looked at the men held at gun point

Diana followed her gaze and gave them a dark look "…What happens now is up to you"

Without further words she shot off into the sky as gunfire erupted beneath her along with the screams of the men

'I'm sorry Peter, but sometimes sacrifices must be made' Diana thought as she made her way back to the Hall of Justice so that she can use the teleporter to return to the Watchtower

…

Peter had just left Hawrkgirl down in the Batcave and was currently making his way towards the kitchen of Wayne Manor when he heard a young girl's voice behind him

"Your Spider-man?"

Peter stopped and looked back to see a young girl of Asian descent and around fifteen years old dressed in all black staring at him with intrigue. Peter looked around for anyone else before returning his gaze to the young girl

"Uh yeah and you are…" Peter asked as he held out a hand for her to shake

The girl looked at his hand for a moment before taking it "Cassandra…"

"Hmm let me guess, your Batgirl right?" Peter said as he tried to figure out which female Gotham vigilante she was. Batwoman and Huntress were off the table so that only, left in his eyes, the second Batgirl

"Yes" the girl nodded as she let go of Peter's hand "Why are you here?"

"Just delivered a bird for your pops is all" Peter said with a shrug "…Are you aware of-"

"Yes, he intends to stop Superman" Cassandra said as she made her way into the kitchen followed by Peter

"Oh good, so haven't seen you around really. Then again you could have been behind me the whole time and I wouldn't have known it" Peter said as he leaned against the island in the kitchen and watched Cassandra open the fridge and pull out a jug of orange juice "You bats have a knack for sneaking up on people"

"Have been in Bludhaven… with Nightwing dead, no one left to defend it" the girl said quietly as she poured herself a glass

"…I'm sorry. I know what it's like to lose family" Peter said as images of Kid-Arachnid, Madam Web, Spider-girl and Spider-woman flashed through his eyes

Cassandra didn't respond but she seemed to have this sort of knowing look in her eye that said she knew.

"So Cassandra, what do you like to do outside of dressing in a suit of armored Kevlar and kick the ever loving crap out of criminals? Jog, fish, play video games, or engage in crazy hour long texts with your peeps?" Peter asked

"…I like to read" she said as she took a sip of her juice

"Anything in particular?" Peter questioned

"Varies" Cassandra said with a shrug

"Oh well have you read The Lord of the Rings yet?" Peter soaked with a grin

Cassandra shook her head which in turn caused Peter to gasp in horror

"You haven't read Tolkien's work? They're the best fantasy books you'll ever read" Peter said in shock

"Really?" Cassandra asked with surprise

"Yeah but when you do decide to read them, read the Hobbit first. It'll help a bit" Peter advised

"I will… look into them" Cassandra said as she took another sip of her juice and sat at the island that Peter was leaning against

The two sat there in silence for a few minutes when Bruce and Selina appeared and looked at the two

Peter raised a brow "What?"

"Surprised you're here still" Bruce said as he gave a nod to his adopted daughter

"Yeah well won't be long until my darling wife finds out my involvement. Besides I actually have something I need to discuss with you" Peter said as he pushed himself off the table and gave Bruce a hard stare

The Batman's eyes narrowed in interest while Selina and Cassandra watched on in interest on what will happen

"What is it?" Bruce asked carefully

"Bruce… how in god's name has Cassandra here not read The Lord of the Rings? Are you insane, no child should go through life without reading them at some point!" Peter said in mock outrage

Bruce felt his eye twitch while Selina laughed and Cassandra giggled quietly to herself but still auditable to the rest in the kitchen

"I was not aware that she hasn't yet" Bruce said with a sigh

"You, the Batman, the second most paranoid man I've ever met didn't know something about his own daughter? World's greatest detective my red and blue webbed bootie" Peter shook his head in disbelief before looking towards Selina "Please help this man and more importantly the children"

Selina laughed "Don't worry I intend to"

"Well now that this situation has been resolved I'm gonna make like a tree and leave. Crime in the big apple doesn't stop just because I'm not there to defend it" Peter said as he turned and made his way towards the door "Also tell Alfred I said hi and that I loved the cookies!"

The three members of the Bat family watched the wall crawler leave before Cassandra got up with her glass and began to leave

"Where you going sweetie?" Selina asked the quite girl

"To find the Hobbit and start reading it" was the simple reply before she turned down the hall

Selina smirked before looking back at Bruce "Hate to say it Bruce, but if I didn't meet you first I may have tried my luck with Peter. Man's good with kids, I haven't seen her so much as smile since what happened…"

Bruce made a grunt of acknowledgement and looked to see Jason stumble into he kitchen with a confused look on his face

"Why did Cass tell me to read Lord of the Rings?"

…

When Diana returned to the Watchtower she was greeted to the site of Superman, Lex, Robin, Cyborg, Flash, Green Lantern and Shazam waiting in the monitor room. Superman turned to her and gave her a questioning gaze

"Where were you? Your communicator was deactivated"

"What's going on?" Diana said choosing to not answer Superman's question but rather address the tense atmosphere in the room

"Hawkgirl's been taken" Flash said

Diana's eyes widened at hearing her fellow Leaguer and friend was apparently kidnapped "What! Who?"

"It was a team. Captain Atom, Black Lightning, Huntress and…" The Flash faltered at the end not knowing what to say

Diana's eyes narrowed at that "Who else was involved?"

Flash took a deep breath before answering "…Spider-man"

Diana's eyes widened at this "W-What?"

Superman hummed in thought "Captain atom suggests a U.S. military involvement, but Huntress, Black Lightning and Spider-man?"

It was Lex that answered this time in cool tone "It's Batman"

Hal looked towards the bald headed genius with confusion "Batman wasn't seen at the location"

Lex nodded at the statement "Yes, that's how you know he was there"

He then tore his gaze from the holo image of the earth and looked towards Superman "This is just the start. Your spread too thin. You can't police the whole planet on your own. You'll be picked off one by one until there's no one left"

Diana watched Lex closely, trying to figure out where the man was going with this. When she returned home and told Peter that Luthor knew her identity and by proxy his, Peter was less than pleased. Particularly about the part where Lex said he was also watching their families, and Diana was surprised by the raw fury lurking in her husband's eyes

Superman looked at his friend in curiosity "What are you suggesting Lex?"

"I'm saying that you need more people. And I know how to get them for you" Lex revealed

Flash looked less than pleased by that idea "What? Why are we talking about bringing in other people when one of our own was just kidnapped? We need to find Hawkgirl first!"

It was than a familiar voice spoke up

"You don't need to find Hawkgirl"

Diana and the rest of the League looked and saw to their surprise Hawkgirl herself approaching them looking less than pleased but otherwise alright. She came to a stop in front of the group and placed her hands on her hips

"I'm right here"

Lex looked a bit skeptical "Batman just let you go?"

Hawkgirl sighed in annoyance and partially anger "No Lex, he gave me a message. He says he doesn't want to fight us but we have to stop what we're doing"

She folded her arms across her chest and gave the new resident billionaire a blank look "He wasn't us to stop working for the world and start working with it"

Shazam seemed to consider the idea "Maybe we should listen to what Batman is saying?"

Flash nodded in agreement "He's right. Ever since Metropolis, I feel like we've been reacting. I'd like to slow down a bit and talk about what we're doing here"

Diana gave the fastest man alive a look of confusion "What we've been doing is protecting the world Flash. We're finally bringing real peace to it"

Barry didn't look convinced as he turned towards Diana "Really? What about the Atlanteans? Do you think that they feel safer after you all took their city and placed it right in the middle of a freakin desert!"

He then turned his attention towards Superman "And what about that kid from Australia you crippled, Galaxor? Is he at peace? No, the poor kid tried to stand up for something and now he's eating through a straw!"

"Unpleasant things have happened I will admit, but more lives have been saved more in these past few weeks than ever before" Superman defended

"Yeah but at what price?" Flash questioned

"If you have that much doubt about what we're doing here Flash, you leave at any time" Diana said as she took a step towards the scarlet speedster

Shazam than spoke up "What he's asking is far from unreasonable Diana. Last week when we fought Black Adam, we could have killed him"

Diana could not believe what she was hearing, Billy was defending his own arch nemesis and quickly rounded on him with a fierce look on her face

"Yes, after he butchered an entire village of people"

"Look I want to fight for the world as much as you do Wonder Woman but I will not bully it into submission" Shazam said with his voice starting to rise

Superman gave the man a look of disproval "This is not about-"

"We've been following your lead without question" Shazam turned on Superman "So ask yourself, what sort of leader doesn't want to hear questions?"

Diana watched as the two powerful men stared each other down and was about to break them up, physically if she had to when Robin finally spoke

"I can practically see the strings"

Diana along with the rest of the League looked towards the boy wonder for clarification on his comment

"Seriously?" he said with a snort "Just like that you all become Batman's puppets. Don't you see, that's what he does"

Robin stood up from his spot and gestured towards Hawkgirl "Tactically it made more sense for Batman to lock her away somewhere. Take his opponents off the board one by one. Instead he sends her back, not as an act of kindness or mercy, but because she's a weapon. She's Batman's little doubt bomb"

"How can you be so sure?" Diana said as she saw that Hawkgirl looked less than pleased by the remark of being Bruce's weapon

"Trust me, I know how my father works" Robin said in a confident tone

"Robin's right" Lex said as he approached the group We're playing right into Batman's hands"

Lex than started to chuckle at something funny as he gestured to them "Also when you all get angry; you tend to cause a bit of property damage. So before you all lose your tempers, please do remember that we're all on a satellite in space and not everyone here can survive the vacuum of space"

"I'm sure a man of your talents will find a way to survive" Diana said dryly at the man

"Perhaps" Lex said with a nod as he turned towards Clark "Superman, all of this comes down to communication. If your own friends are this uneasy with the course of actions taken, then think about how the people of the world may be feeling"

Superman seemed to frown as he thought on what Lex said before he turned to the man "What do you recommend"

"Let me help you start to shape your message. Then if your agreeable I'll ask my people to set up a public address" Lex offered

Shazam looked unsure about that "So the message comes solely from Superman?"

"No…" Superman shook his head "Lex is right. We need to communicate better and all of you should be part of this"

The mystically powered champion of the wizard Shazam seemed satisfied by the answer "Thank you Superman, I just don't want to see us turned into something we despised"

"And we won't Shazam" Diana said before Cyborg spoke up

"Uh guy's there's a situation in Manhattan"

The group turned towards him as he brought up an image of Spider-man fighting against Circe in what looked like Times square. Diana narrowed her eyes at the image as she turned on her heel

"I will handle this, let me know when and where the address is"

"Need any help?" Flash asked the departing Amazon

"No" Diana said as she intends to have a very heated conversation with Peter after this

And done.

Next chapter deals with Spider-man and Wonder Woman against Circe which will lead to a lemon and than an alien invasion. Also yes I introduced Cassandra Cain, my favorite Batgirl who will come to see Spidey as a sort of older brother figure as the story progresses
