Introduction

In one of the infinite alternate dimensions of the multiverse Talia Al Ghul knelt on the edge of the roof of a ten story brick apartment building in Gotham with a sniper rifle in her hands. It was trained on a person in the front window of a café across the street from the building she knelt on. She wore her green outfit similar to what Ra's Al Ghul wore, but cut more to fit her female form. Her long silky brown hair was tied into a bun to assure it didn't get in the way of her shot. After all, she had one chance to make her shot count.

It was late in the afternoon and the sun was starting to wane as it slowly dropped down to the horizon. In the scope was a woman sitting at a table in the front window speaking to someone across from her, completely oblivious to her impending doom.

Lois Lane.

Talia's hand began to sweat slightly as she thought of what might happen to her if everything didn't go exactly as planned.

Aligning her shot, she took a deep breath, then fired.

BANG

The shot went off as the bullet was fired at an insane speed, however this was not a normal bullet. It was inlaid with Kryptonite and had a different payload than what one would expect from a bullet.

The bullet took almost no time to make it's way to it's target.

Then, as if time slowed down a blue and red blur came rushing down from the sky at speeds many times greater than the bullet itself.

Skidding to a stop a few seconds later was Jon Kent in his Superboy suit with the bullet in his right hand held between his thumb and pointer finger.

"Gotcha" Jon Said with a goofy grin of his face as he looked at the bullet.

Little did he know that Talia was banking on him catching the bullet as the bullet exploded in his hands, releasing a green gas around him.

Jon, having not expected this was caught off guard as he inhaled the gas.

"Uggh" He grunted as he felt his powers weakening and dizziness overcoming him. Falling to his knees and coughing in the thick gas cloud, he didn't notice a grenade rolling up to his side.

BANG

The grenade exploded, but didn't do any damage. Instead a Thrumming sound was heard as a blue portal of energy opened next to Jon and pulled him helplessly in as he was still struggling with the dizziness and Kryptonite.

Then, as quickly as it opened, it closed behind him, leaving the street empty.

When the gas faded, standing across the street from where Jon once was was an Italian man in his mid thirties wearing a gray pinstriped suit and gray boater who had a grin on his face. His hand was extended from throwing the portal grenade. He was Blackie Sarto, a mobster, thief, and the man hired for this job. Turning away, he ran off down the street into a waiting gray SUV that then sped off with screeching tires.

He would be paid well for getting rid of the son of Superman.


Jon Kent Found himself falling from the sky down towards the ground. He was high up in the sky right now, easily half a mile up. The kryptonite was beginning to wear off, but he was having a hard time orienting himself. His mind was befuddled and his body was sluggish as he desperately willed himself to fly. However, his powers were still restrained by the Kryptonite.

He screamed out in fear as he gained speed, further and further he fell towards the ground as buildings rushed up to him.

CRACK

He slammed into the concrete of a schoolyard path, sending concrete and dirt everywhere into the sky like an explosion.

"Gah!" Jon spat out as he slammed into the ground as his body struck the earth.

His vision swam with stars as he lay dazed in the crater he formed. He could vaguely make out the sounds of people approaching him, but he was barely conscious and fading fast to unconsciousness.

Then, everything went black.


So, there you go, that's the introduction. I hoped you like it.
