I do not own any rights to the Justice League series. I am just writing this story because I liked the idea of creating my own OC character that would interact with the Justice League Unlimited Story line.
Ch. 2 Capture
Up in the Watchtower, the alarm went off about the current disturbance that was going on. "So that's where he went," said Flash. "He's on Main Street in Gotham City," said J'onn. Superman turned to see Batman already walking off toward the teleporter. "I'll go with Batman to see if we can stop anything from escalating down there," said Superman as he followed after Batman. A few minutes later they arrive to see the GCPD had already surrounded Xander. "Commissioner what is going on?" asked Superman.
"We have tried talking to him though he hasn't replied to anything we have said. Then when we tried to get closer to him it was like there was a barrier between us and him," answered Commissioner Gordon. "Do you know who he is?" asked Detective Bullock as he walked up to Batman and Superman. "I met him earlier and he said his name was Xander," said Superman. "So basically another wacko like what he normally has to deal with," said Bullock while pointing his thumb over at Batman. "We are not sure all we know is that he arrived here a little while ago and this is the first amount of damage he has caused," said Superman. "Commissioner, he's starting to fly away," yelled one of the officers.
Superman flew off after Xander who turned around and looked back at him. "What do you want now? I already told you that I would meet with you and your people after I have finished exploring this world," Xander yelled over to Superman. "You have started to cause damage so we have to ask you to come with me now," said Superman as he started to fly alongside Xander. "And if I don't?" asked Xander. "I will have to take you in by force if necessary," answered Superman. " I am sorry to say that I still have to decline," said Xander as he slowed to a stop over a forest. "I am sorry too," said Superman as he flew forward to grab Xander only to slam into the barrier that Commissioner Gordon spoke of earlier. As Superman looked up Xander held out his hand and shot an orb of green colored energy into Superman who was throwback a few feet.
"Well that was unexpected," said Xander with a raised eyebrow as he looked over at Superman in curiosity. "What do you mean?" asked Superman. "Usually anyone I hit with that attack is paralyzed for about an hour," said Xander. 'So that explains why I felt numb for a second.' thought Superman. A few seconds later a roar of a jet engine sounded. As Xander turned a cable wrapped around him, and he was drug behind a jet that was shaped like a bat. Superman immediately followed the bat jet as it pulled Xander through the sky.
Xander rolled his hands over to grab onto the cable. When he finally got the cable in his hands he sent electrical pulses through the cable back to the bat jet forcing the on-board systems to shut down. Inside the bat jet, Batman was forced to release the cable to try and save the computer systems, but the system shorted and the bat jet started to fall out of the sky. Superman seeing that the bat jet was not pulling out of the dive that it had started into flew past Xander; who was now standing on a platform of energy; to grab the bat jet to ensure that it would not crash.
While Superman was getting the bat jet safely on the ground Xander was getting ready to leave when he was surrounded in a green energy bubble. "I think you have caused enough trouble for the day," said Green Lantern. Xander charged an energy attack and hit the bubble, but it had no effect. "It would be better if you just calmed down because you will not be able to break out," Green Lantern said while watching Xander try again to break out of the energy bubble. "You're right I should calm down, but you are wrong if you think that I can't get out of this," Xander replied after taking a deep breath.
Xander placed his hands together in a prayer hand shape, and said "Restriction Seal 1 Release," Green Lantern watched as Xander started glowing for a few seconds. Xander charged his energy to his hands again and hit the energy bubble again this time cracking it. Green Lantern focused more energy in the bubble to re-enforce the bubble to keep Xander contained. Xander started to punch the bubble in the same spot over and over again cracking it faster than Green Lantern could keep up. Until Xander smashed his way through the bubble. Only to be grabbed from behind by Superman who had returned from assisting Batman.
"I would suggest releasing me." Xander gritted out as Superman slowly tightened his hold on him forcing more air out of his lungs. Xander started forcing electricity through his body, and into Superman to try, and get him to let go. Superman continued to hang on to Xander even as he was shocked.
Green Lantern watched as Xander stopped shocking Superman, and started trying to burn Superman instead. "I said Let Me GO!" yelled Xander as he exploded with energy forcing Superman away from him. When Superman was forced back Green Lantern blasted Xander with a bolt of energy from his ring and sent Xander flying into the ground. As Green Lantern floated down to check on Xander, Superman beat him to get to the crater where Xander's body was, and they found that Xander was unconscious laying in the crater. "Diana (A.K.A. Wonder Woman), lock onto John's (A.K.A. Green Lantern) and my signal, and transport us to the watchtower," Superman said into the communicator. A few seconds later Green Lantern, and Superman carrying Xander appeared in the watchtower. "Well take him to the medical bay and try to keep him sedated for now," Superman said to J'onn as he came up to them.
A few hours later we find Xander still unconscious thanks to being sedated and the medical reads they got from a blood sample from him showed that he was human. "My best guess from what we observed is that he capable of using magic similar to Zatanna," said Batman as he arrived after finally getting the bat jet back to the Bat-cave. "What do we do in that case?" asked Green Lantern. "For now I would continue to keep him sedated until we figure out how to suppress his powers," Batman replied while eyeing Xander. "Now that he is unconscious I should be able to gain access to his mind," said J'onn as he walked over to Xander. J'onn placed his hands on both sides of Xander's head and his orange eyes glowed as he attempted to enter Xander memories.
A few seconds later Batman noticed a glow coming from under Xander shirt. The next thing everyone in the room saw was J'onn getting thrown back by electricity arcing off of Xander's body originating from the glow that Batman saw. "You okay?" asked Superman as he helped J'onn get up off the floor. "There was something blocking me from entering his mind," replied J'onn. " It has something to do with this symbol," said Batman who was now standing next to Xander, and had pulled his shirt to the side showing a symbol tattooed onto Xander's shoulder.
"So basically while he has that symbol on him J'onn can't do his whole mind reader thing?" asked Flash. "That is what I believe is the case," J'onn said. "So what are we supposed to do with him now?" asked Green Lantern. "We keep him in one of the cells down in the prisoner's wing and when he wakes up," said Superman "When he wakes up I'll have a talk with him," Batman said. "I don't know if that would be a good idea I mean look at what he did to GL(Green Lantern) and Superman. If you interrogate him the Watchtower might get destroyed," Flash said with a hint of a grin. At that, Batman just glared at Flash. " I have an idea," said Wonder Woman.
A little while later Xander woke only to realize that he was tied to a chair by a golden colored rope. He lifted his head only to come eye to eye with a scowling Batman glaring at him. "Where did you come from?" Batman growled out at Xander. "I don't know," replied Xander. "How did you get here then?" Batman asked. "All I remember was battling someone. I was standing behind them while two other people were attacking them from the front. One of them was shooting Lightning from a giant hammer and the other was in a metal suit and a beam came from a circle in his chest. I used some of my magic to attack, but our opponent dodged the attacks which then collided, and it created a tear in the air and I was pulled into it," Xander explained with wide eyes until his eyes narrowed.
"It's the rope, isn't it. It is what is making me talk so freely," After Xander said that his eyes glowed then his body glowed similar to what happens with Green Lantern. "There now I can choose which questions I want to answer," said Xander before smirking at Batman. Outside the interrogation room, the rest of the Justice League went wide-eyed. "Is that really possible for him to do?" Superman asked Wonder Woman. "I am not sure his powers are different, then most of the stuff we normally deal with. You could try and contact Fate, and see if he has any ideas," said Wonder Woman. Superman and Wonder Woman headed back toward the elevator, and just as they were about to get on the alarms went off.
"J'onn what's going on?" asked Superman after activating the communicator. "The prisoner escaped," replied J'onn. "How did he escape the rope that was binding him?" asked Wonder Woman. "He just disappeared," came the voice of Flash over the comm. system. "It's more likely he used his teleportation ability," the voice of Batman said a few seconds after Flash. "Alright, everyone head for the command center," Superman said before getting on the elevator to head to the command center to try, and contact Fate to hopefully get his input at the meeting.
Half an hour later Fate arrives at the Watchtower. "What can you tell me about how this individual arrived in our dimension? I can currently sense his presence down on the planet, but his type of magic signature is different than any I have encountered," said Fate. "He told us that he was engaged in a battle with three other people two that he was assisting and the third that they were engaging," Superman said. "He said that the two that he was helping attacked their enemy with energy attacks one used an electrical attack similar to lightning, and the other used some unknown energy attack while Xander used his magic. The opponent evaded the three attacks, but the attacks collided. The mixture of the attacks caused a tear to appear in front of where he was only for him to get pulled into it. Then, the next thing he knew he arrived here in our dimension," said Hawkgirl.
"So he was thrust into an unknown world and almost immediately you provoked him into attacking your group," Fate replied after a moment of thought. "What do you mean provoked him? He attacked us after we kindly asked him to come with us without causing any damage to any public place," replied Flash in shock. "I was shown what happened in Gotham before I came to the meeting and I could tell that he meant no harm to anyone. Also, I heard him tell Superman that he would meet with the League after he got a brief understanding of this world," Fate responded. "While he may have meant no harm to anyone the civilians of the world will try to treat him like one of us or like a villain that needs to be locked up or kept under control," said J'onn.
"So if I understand the way this conversation is heading you want me to help you capture and contain him until you can figure out what to do with him?" asked Fate. "It would be a big help if you could help us by keeping him from using his ability to teleport so we will have an easier time reasoning with him," said Superman. "I will help you as long as all you're trying to do is talk this out with him, but I am unsure of his abilities and how my powers could possibly suppress his magical powers," Fate responded.
"Batman, J'onn were you able to figure out where he teleported to?" asked Wonder Woman. "I was able to place a bat tracer on him when we had him sedated just in case he teleports out of here. He is currently in Dakota City. We could contact Static, and give him a heads up about Xander being in his city and that we are heading that way," said Batman while checking some readings on the monitor. "Then, we know where we are going so everyone get ready," said Green Lantern.
There's Ch.2, I hope you like the story line so far. Feel free to leave comments on anything that I could do to make this story better.
