So continuing with story...
"We almost there?" Flash asked, staring out the window.
"Just about." J'ohn answered, he turned his head sharply at the sound of hooves.
"J'ohn?" Flash looked out and his eyes opened wide. A horse of mist, one of bones, one rotting and another one that was thin all charged in the air at the Javelin. "Oh no!" Flash said.
J'ohn tried to turn the Javelin away but was stopped when a blade was thrown through the window and hit the control panel in front of J'ohn. He pulled his hands away as the control panel shorted out and the Javelin crash-landed.
Flash rubbed his neck after the collision with the ground; he looked up to see a blue-cloaked figure standing over him. The figure grabbed him round the throat and proceeded to drag him out of the ship.
J'ohn moved and flew at the figure only to get knocked out the way by a red cloaked figure. Flash was dragged the rest of the way to the door and was thrust upon the bone horse. He felt another hand grip the back of his neck as the front hand was removed.
Looking down he saw the blue and red cloaks climbing upon their horses and following them up. He turned his head slightly and saw the ground-growing father away. The horse turned it's skinless head to Flash and stared at him with red lit eyes; Flash started to panic.
"Calm mate." A voice warned him. He looked up and raised a hand, lowering the hood on the figure. A pale skinned woman with white-blue eyes looked back at him.
"Who are you?" Flash asked finally coming to sense after the crash.
The woman smiled and raised his head up. "Something you should fear." She moved her bare hand and started pulling at the glove on her hand.
"They've attacked the Javelin...let's go!" John shouted, launching into the air, the others close behind. As they approached the crash sight they saw Flash slumped over the neck of a skeletal horse. They were about to go to him when they saw a cloudy horse float up in front of them. The rider threw back his hood and stared at them with black eyes.
"The Justice League, your days are ending!" the paled skinned man said, turning his horse and pulling out a three foot long sward. He pointed it at them as two other horses rode up behind him. The one on the left was the starved horse and it's rider was a tanned man with brown eyes. The one on the right was a rotting horse with a rider also tanned but with orange eyes.
Each pulled out a weapon and charged the Justice League, keeping them back from Flash and the woman.
The woman finally started to slide the glove off while trying to stop Flash from jumping off the horse.
"Don't struggle. It won't hurt for long!"
"It won't hurt at all!" She turned her head sharply up and saw a mace come flying through the air. It connected with her horse, which exploded out with bones flying about. Both Flash and the woman started to fall.
The winged woman who threw the mace flew down to catch Flash.
"D!" The man upon the misty horse cried. The other two turned briefly to watch their leader fall. The man turned to the other two and nodded to the one on the rotting horse. The man threw out his arm and thousands of insects flew from his arm. They all flew straight for Hawk Girl.
Then the rider of the rotting horse turned back with the man on the horse Hambre and continued their weapons fight. The man on the misty horse flew off to the two falling people.
Hawk Girl just about touched Flash's outfit when thousands of insects swarmed around her and took her by surprise. She yelled as she tried to fly through them but they landed on her and started eating at her feathers and clothes.
The misty horse appeared very quickly and caught Flash; he turned the man on his back, breathed in and blew a black mist on to Flash's face. Flash coughed and flayed about on the horse.
The woman continued to fall with the bones that suddenly jerked and gathered together. The horse once more formed and caught it's rider. The woman whooped and patted the horse. She took the rains and guided the horse's back up to where Flash and the man where.
Hawk Girls managed to make her mace crackle with electricity, which she waved around, destroying the insects. She then looked up to see Flash on the misty horse and flew up releasing a scream of rage.
"D! I suggest you call it off. Angering the Justice League will only make them stronger. You need them to play the hero, leave the boy and come back!" The woman looked at the communicator in her belt and then at the man on the mist horse.
"We should go back. We didn't expect the Lantern or the Hawk to be here, lets reform a plan!" The woman nodded and whistled to the other two. They both nodded ahead of them, as they were unable to turn away from the assault.
"AHHH!" Hawk Girl soared up and brought her mace up. The man on the misty horse threw Flash off his horse and pulled out his sward, the two weapons clashed together.
"You have to get us out Sis!" The man yelled to the woman. She glanced at the retreating men and sighed.
"If I fall...you catch!" She said over her shoulder as she moved back. Stopping she turned her horse and held her gloved and bare hand up in the air. A pendant around her neck rose up and glowed red, she began chanting as the pendant spun faster and rose higher.
"Anuble la lluvia hacia abajo con fuego del infierno,
caiga a donde usted perteneció una vez!"
The pendant disappeared into the clouds and the sky turned red. A black shadow erupted from the woman's chest and burst into the clouds above. Suddenly balls of fire fell from the sky and onto the town. People screamed as they tried to run.
The four horses grouped together and rode off in the opposite way as the fire, the woman laying heavily on her horse as the pendant returned to her.
John was raring to go after them but stopped at the screams of people trying to escape the falling fire, he growled in frustration and then flew off to help. Batman, meanwhile, was running out to where Flash had fallen in the street. He scooped up the young man and ran to the shelter of a two-story shop.
The Justice League eventually saved all the people on the street and were sheltering under a canopy made by John's ring. Hawk Girl and Batman where the only two who were not under the canopy.
"It's good you came, he could have been killed." Batman said, glancing sideways at Hawk Girls while trying to find out what was wrong with Flash. Slowly the fire stopped falling and the sky returned to normal.
"Is he Okay?" She asked stepping up behind Batman.
"His temperature has increased and he's shivering. It's almost like he has an illness." Batman said frowning behind his mask.
"What are you doing here?" John yelled at Hawk Girls as he ran across the street.
"She was here to help!" Batman explained stepping between the two.
"She 'help'? Please, like she ever really was!" John screamed.
"We don't have time for this! Flash is ill!" Batman yelled over the starting argument.
"What happened?" Superman asked stepping past John.
"That blue-robbed guy breathed something on his face." Shayera explained.
"Plague!" Batman muttered staring off into space.
"Plague?" John asked. "Like the Black Plague?" He continued, concern in his voice.
"No Plague the person." Batman said scooping Flash back up.
"You're kidding...right?" John asked looking at Batman. At the look upon his face he added, "No of course not."
"Do you mean Plague from the four horse men?" J'ohn asked floating woozily out of the ship.
"Are you Okay?" Superman asked stepping up to the Martian.
"Yes, they didn't attack me like that." He stepped up to Flash.
"How do you know about the myth?" Batman asked as John formed an orb around them. "Let Shayera come too, she's involved now." John just grunted and expanded the orb for her.
"My people had a story of a man that appeared on our planet warning us about the four horsemen that were destroying planets. That was over two thousand years ago."
"About the same time as the story was told here on Earth!" Superman said putting two and two together.
"It's more like four horse riders, not men." Diana said watching Flash as he moaned and shivered again. "What do you think is wrong with him?"
"A nervous disease, it's not always plagues." Batman said as they entered the watchtower. They raced up to the infirmary and set about relieving the pain for Flash.
"So let me get this straight there's Plague, the one on the misty horse, Famine, on the withered horse, Pestilence on the rotting horse and on the skeletal horse?"
"Death" Batman said simply, he drew some blood from Flash and then attached a drip to his arm. "I'll analyse this and see if I can narrow it down a bit."
J'ohn nodded and then set about gathering some needles and medicine. He filled one needle and measured the right amount.
"What are you going to give him?" Shayera asked laying a hand on Flash's forehead.
"Just something to sedate him properly." J'ohn answered while injecting it into the IV line.
"What do we do now?" Pestilence whined, throwing his cloak over the back of the chair, he turned it round that sat with his chin resting on the back of the chair.
"You find a new angle to attack from!" Came a voice from the shadow.
"Luthor! How would you suggest we go about this? We can't very well collect any souls with them interfering, can we now?" Death strolled over to Luthor.
"But the Bat get mad!" Someone cackled from behind them. "I've seen him when he looses someone he cares about, they get badly beaten." Joker stepped up next to Plague who was leaning against the wall.
"Wouldn't want that now, would we D?" Plague mumbled under his breath. Death walked over to the table that Famine was sitting on and took off her cloak. She stretched out her bare arms and straightened out the creases on her bodice like top and plain black trousers.
"Luthor? Did you say before that they like to play hero?" Death asked sweetly.
"Indeed, never like to loose any innocent people. Why?" Luthor unfolded his arms as some of Jokers men bounded out from behind him.
"Well one of theirs is down and wounded for a while. If we can lure some of them away, then we might just get someone they would hate to loose." She smiled sadistically.
"Then?" Famine asked, stripping off his cloak too.
"We give them a choice, sacrifice him or sacrifice a few hundred souls. Now matter whether they try to break him out, or do come with the souls, then we kill them. With your help of course." She added looking at Luthor. He nodded.
"Going to collect some souls Sis?" Pestilence asked standing up.
Death whipped round and grabbed one of Jokers men by the throat; she ripped off the glove with her teeth, spat the glove out and began talking.
"Another soul for the never ending hunger!" She passed her free hand over the mans face. His eye's widened in horror as her skeletal hand passed in from of his eyes. He screamed as her hand brushed his cheek and then fell still. "Some strong souls will help our family tradition!" she laughed, dropping the man at her feet and letting her brother release insects on the corpse, turning it quickly to bone.
