Authors notes: I wrote this before I saw the first episode of JLU, So sorry if the continuity is a little bit screwed up, but bear with me this will be one cool Story.
It should be noted that in this version of the story, the Justice League fell apart after the events of Starcrossed. The heroes don't hate each other they just grew apart,
Also note this story takes place in the Animated universe however there are a few changes, Superman has fought Kenny Braverman AKA. Conduit who died in the battle. Also for anyone who doesn't know, Braverman knows Supermans Secret Identity. just like in the comics, and further more in the time line of this story the US Presidential election is coming to a end.
Justice League Unlimited. The beginning
Smallville General Hospital, November 2nd. 4:16 am.
Pete Ross stared down at his wife and smiled, After a long delivery his son was finally born, The doctors had left the couple alone in the room to give them some privacy.
''Oh Pete what will we name him.'' Lana asked her husband.
Pete started to answer but was interrupted as a thick cloud of dust and cement came seeping threw the floor. ''What the..'' He asked but his only answer was a punch to the face. He fell to the floor hard.
Debris fell all around the figure as he spoke. ''No need to name him.'' The figure walked calmly over to Lana Lang and picked up the baby. The dust began to settle in the room ans the mans face became visible. ''He belongs to Conduit now.'' He said with a chuckle.
Pete was up and rushed the villain cocking his fist back getting ready to strike. ''Braverman let my son go.'' He shouted but before he could strike he was met with a backhand that sent him crashing into a wall on the other side of the room.
Braverman knelled down and whispered into a sobbing Lana's ear. ''I have a message for Clark... He's got five days to find me and save this child, Or I will kill him personally.''
With this Braverman turned around left the same way he came in, threw the floor. Seconds later police and security guards rushed into the room, too late.
Downtown Metropolis, November 2nd. 10:16 Am
It sounded like a small footstep, But for Solomon Grundy it meant big trouble. A light cough caught his ear and he turned around and froze.
''I think you dropped something Grundy.'' Superman said calmly as he walked toward the zombie like character. Grundy backed away, still holding the bag of stolen jewels. ''Grundy not afraid of Soopermahn.'' When the man of steel got in range Grundy let loose with a right hook which the man of steel caught with ease with his own left hand.
Superman was always one who would rather talk things out rather than fight tried to reason things out. ''You know you cant beat me Grundy, So just surrender and save yourself from a world of hurt.'' Grundy took it all him, Superman thought he had gotten through to the monster but was rocked by a Headbutt that sent him crashing threw a small coffee shop.
Grundy was on the run as he ran down several blocks before Superman could even get out of the store, A police officer ran to him. ''Superman... A squad car just saw that monster on Siegel avenue.'' He informed the hero.
Superman thanked the officer and took flight heading to his destination, Grundy on the ground saw the man of steel and picked up a man in a wheel chair and hurled him toward the man of steel. Superman rushed and caught hold of the man still trapped in his wheel chair. ''Don't worry sir, I got you.'' Superman assured the victim.
''I gotta hand it to him, he's getting more original.'' He thought but cursed his words. as a minivan went sailing by him. Superman got in front of the vehicle and in a amazing demonstration of balance held on to the minivan and the man in the wheel chair using only his two arms and one of his knees.
He moved quick knowing full well that he could not catch another civilian or Vehicle, quickly he placed everyone on solid ground and took after Grundy again. Landing directly in front on the villains path.
''I tried reasoning with you.'' He began as he punched Grundy hard in the face.
''I tried being a nice guy'' He continued as he blocked one of Grundy's punches with his hand and proceeded to crush it with his super strength.
''You have left me no other choice.'' He finished as he grabbed Grundy by the shirt and flung him higher than Metropolis's tallest sky scrapper. Moving at super speed he ripped a street light off and flew high into the air. In seconds Solomon Grundy was tied in the street lamp and was placed in a portable cell strong enough to hold em.
Superman landed on the roof of the daily planet and switched into his civilian clothes, and also switched personalities as he bagame Clark Kent, He stepped casually into the office where Lois Lane was waiting for him. ''Clark the police are here to see you.''
Clark loosened up his tie as he walked into his office where two police men were in fact waiting for him. One slipped behind him and grabbed his wrists placing them in hand cuffs. ''Clark Kent your under arrest for kidnapping.'' He was being escorted out of the building but resisted a little just so he could whisper something to Lois.
''In my office find Bruce Wayne number and give him a call, tell him what happened.'' Lois nodded and rushed to perform this task.
The news was already on TV. Kenny Braverman was standing in someones presence, a man
Who had his back to Braverman and was concealed behind the chair. ''Excelent work Kenny, I see reviving you was a good investment.''
The man blew a puff of smoke across the room took a sip of Whisky and smiled. He lifted his glass for a toast, ''Mister Braverman...'' Lex Luthor spun his chair around coming into view. ''It's time to revive the Injustice League.''
End of chapter one.
