Disclaimer: I do not own JL

Quick Note: I have not a clue if Flash really had a brother or not so BL is a made up character.

Chapter 2- Family Matters

The entire League gasped at what Black Lightning had just said. "Brother?" Hawk Girl restated. Flash only nodded and glanced downward before shaking his brother's hand. Black Lightning grinned at the youngest League member before pulling him into a hug.

"I haven't seen you in years!" Flash suddenly said with excitement. "I thought you wanted to travel!"

"I did... That was until I saw my little bro saving the world more than once. I knew I just had to come back and see what was up in you goof- off head!" Black Lightning joked.

"Really... Just couldn't pass it up...." Flash then looked at his open mouthed team mates. "Oh Black Lightning these are the other members of the Justice League: Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, Hawk Girl, Green Lantern, J'ohn.. Meet my older brother Black Lightning.."

"Wait... Since when did you have a brother?" Green Lantern protested.

Flash paused to think then answered, "Since I was born... We split though.. While I went to one place my brother ran off to explore the world when I was, uh,... I don't remember actually.. Haven't seen him since till now!" Flash and Black Lightning slapped eachother a high five.

"Black Lightning do you have a place to stay?" Superman asked while pushing back his red cape.

"Nah but I will find one...." Black Lightning was about to leave when Superman stopped him.

"Stay up at Javelin.. We have plenty of room and since you are Flash's brother I trust you," Superman added. Black Lightning grinned and nodded. Flash was going to intercede but back down.

"Thanks... I'll accept your generous offer, but I have to run a quick errand first!" Black Lightning explained before zooming out of sight leaving a gust of wind behind him that knocked some of the JL off their feet.

Back at Javelin Flash was playing his video game again. "You sure you're O.K. with this Superman?" Flash asked not turning back.

"Yeah, why not?... You don't trust him?" Superman asked wondering why Flash would put his own flesh and blood out in the cold.

"I do.. Nevermind.. Act like I never said a word!" Flash sighed. He was uncertain but for good reasons. Black Lightning wasn't always the loyalist type when it came to certain things.

"All is going according to plan," the Joker explained to their new boss. The shadow cackled and nodded his head allowing the Joker and the rest of the villains to leave.
"Soon Flash... Very soon," the shadow cackled from the darkness of the Dragster Warehouse.

"Hey!" Green Lantern waved while entering the complex in space with Black Lightning.

"Hey BL!" Flash called now making 20 sandwiches for himself. Yet before Flash could eat them Black Lightning was over there eating half.

"Thanks little bro!" BL grinned like taking Flash's food was a joke. Flash didn't think it was too funny while he finished the rest before BL could.

"No problem, anytime!" Flash replied sarcastically.

That night Flash laid in bed at his place. Something was different with BL. He knew it but couldn't place it. Before Wally could think about it anymore a distress signal from Javelin was received. Wally threw on his costume and once more became the scarlet speedster.

"What's up?" Flash yawned as he ran into his friends and brother crowded behind some jewelry store.

"Joker, Grodd, Sapphire, Shade, Lex, and a few others are inside about to steal some things," Black Lightning explained to the late Flash.

"Oh.. Guess I have to do some work before bed?" Flash asked.

"Yes," the entire group yelled in a whisper.

It happened suddenly. A bright light was seen then all was dark in the back of the store!

Author Note: There you go! I know the chapter are short but I'm taking Driver's Ed and it is hard to work around. I'll update asap! R&R!
