"Warning, incoming message." Addy commented. Booster Gold appeared on the screen.
"Man, I never thought I'd be glad to see you guys. There's a monster cyborg attacking Metropolis. Superman and Green Arrow are enroute, Flash is up here, in the infirmary, and J'onn is busy. Can you help?" Booster asked.
"Who is there now?" Lantern asked, as the ship began to descend.
"Dr. Light, and Fire." Booster reported. "Steel was with them, but he was disabled when they tried to capture this thing."
"Then we'll give it a go. What powers has it got?" Batman asked.
"Unknown, it doesn't match anything but magic, but he's not using that. Zatanna checked." The reply was followed by a sigh.
"Let's go." The side of the Adamantium swung open, and the six of us, including Batman since we were at roof level, leapt out. Kara and Diana, both now changed into Supergirl and Wonderwoman respectively. A lance of magical fire had brought the secret identities. Hawkgirl swept around the right, and Lantern to the left as they swept forwards, matching movements. Red fragments of light appeared between Cyber-naught, and Supergirl, as I rose into the air, straight up. She faltered, and fell towards the ground. Batman swung around and caught her just short of falling, and dropped her on a roof. He landed a bit farther, and spun, throwing two Batarangs. One aimed for the shards of red Kryptonite, and one for the villain. The shards spun apart, and the batarang passed through without touching them. The second one was right on target, and slammed into the villain, unleashing several thousand volts of electricity into his body. The shards slammed together, just in time to be hit by the first batarang on it's return course and exploded. Hawkgirl ripped through the air and swung her mace. Unfortunately, he'd recovered and she received the blow back in the teeth, literally. Wonder woman slammed head first into him, causing him to double over. Lantern's flying fist, glowing green knocked him end for end in the air. Me? I raised my right arm, and drew forth all the power I could muster, forming it into a white javelin, glowing just faintly green. Energy danced along the edges, and I lashed my arm forwards and down, the javelin in the air lunging forwards at the motion. The weapon slammed into Cyber-naught, and he hit the ground. I touched down a moment later, and promptly passed out.
"You fool's you can't stop me." Cyber-naught snarled. He lifted his hands, and slammed them together. A wall of light and energy lanced back out, slamming into each of the heroes, putting them down for the count, seeming to ignore Lantern's shielding. Superman, and Green Arrow touched the ground, only to be met with huge electrical cables. They wrapped around them, and then Kryptonite shards floated in just close enough to remove Superman's powers to resist, but not enough to kill him. Arrow began to fight to slip free, as Cyber-naught floated past. The one thing else that moved, was so fast, we could only see an orange blur. Whatever it was, it was moving to fast for the cybernetic to see, and there fore to fast to hit. At first I thought it was Flash, but it didn't have his sense of humor and it never stopped moving. He flipped in the air, the first time the blur snapped past, the second time a wall appeared, but the blur just raced over the top of it. A roped began to appear around Cyber-naught, binding him. He growled, and his eyes flashed. That was when she was revealed. The blur changed directions, and delivered a punch, of enough force to make Superman flinch. The cybernetic toppled backwards. Lantern and Kara had both awoken by this time, and joined me in staring. A beautiful woman, and blond, in a skin tight suit, smiled at us.
"I'm Dancer, a friend of Flash, nice to meet you." Three reactions met her proclaimation. Lantern nodded, and lifted into the air, heading to check on Hawkgirl. Supergirl smiled, and floated down, to shake her hand.
"Nice to meet you." Me? I just burst out laughing, then stopped, noting I had a number of shattered ribs.

Flash was laughing, as I limped into the room, and sat down on the bed beside him. John and Shayera came in, her leaning on him for support. Clark whimpered from the next bed over, as J'onn patched his ribs. The cable had cracked several while he was injured. Kara dropped to the bed beside me, massaging her right leg. She'd bruised it when she bounced off a fire escape, as she fell. I would have laughed, if it didn't hurt so much.
"I can't believe that." Shayera complained. "Wrenching my wing like that." She'd injured it when she fell,and bounced on the roof. She was grounded for several months. John had a few cracked ribs, though nothing like mine. Bruce and Diana laughed.
"Be glad that's all you did." She commented. Her entire right arm was bound to her side. She'd dislocated both the shoulder, and the elbow when she hit. Batman had broken a leg, and his jaw. He couldn't say a word. Some of us considered that a boone. All in all Steel had come out of it best, only needing to repair his suit. When Dr. Light, and Fire went down they activated each others powers. Light was in for treament of severe burns, and Fire was having her right arm re-attached. Bruce muttered something through his wired jaw.
"He says you're all very lucky." Diana translated.
"Some more than others." I commented, motioning to Arrow, who had suffered little more than a cut, and a large bruise. Black Canary had heard, and he was milking it for all he was worth. I couldn't help myself.
"After I was viciously attacked, I 'found out I smell like a diseased onion'." That wasn't what he was going to say, and he glared at me. She just laughed. He swiveled his head back around, just as she leaned down and kissed him.

"So, I was going to infiltrate the justice league headquarters, and..." Cybernaught stopped, when Shade smashed him in the back of the head, and dropped him to the floor.
"Thank you." Vandal Savage nodded. "I thought he'd never shut up." Sitting calmly on the arkham common room couch, no one commented when he changed from the news, to cartoons. Poison Ivy peered up at him.
"Are you alright honey?" She asked. He smiled.
"Oh, I suppose, just enjoying prison life while I can." He replied. "Ever consider going straight?"
"I am straight." She replied. "Oh, you meant stop crime sprees." She grinned. "What would I ever do?" She asked.
"Become a florist?" He asked, smiling. She laughed. "I can obtain samples of rare flowers for you, and you can breed them, and make them grow, where no one else can."
"I like that idea." She replied, and sighed, as she leaned against him. "When do we get out?" She asked.
"In two months." He replied, and then burst out laughing at the television.
