Chapter 19.
"Julia, wake up," Don said, nudging the Thanagerian. Lex whispered into her ear, as Don continued to speak. Majority of the League plus Chloe and Lana stood around a couch were a young winged man lay. "You need to wake up, he needs help and you're the only one who knows how to help him."
"Some one needs to find Shayera and John," Batman said. "They may be in danger, especially Shayera."
"I'll go," John said, "Where they going?"
"No, they just said they were going to fly," Lex said, as Julia began to stir in his arms, "Jules?"
Her eyes shot open and she jumped right up startling Lex. "Kator!"
"Julia," Don said, getting the darked haired girl's attention, "Do you know how to fix his wing? It's broken."
"Has he woken up?" Julia asked, examining the large wing.
"Only for a few seconds," Superman said. "I think the Thanagerians are coming."
"Who are the Thanagerians?" Lana asked, standing next too stunned to speak Chloe.
"I'll explain once I help him," Julia said, she bit her bottom lip as she thought quietly. "I need two large flat pieces of wood."
"There's plenty on the farm," Clark said, "I'll go get them."
"I'm faster," a still green Wally said, before zooming out the broken window in a green blur.
"What the hell?" Chloe finally spoke, faintly.
"I'm back," said Wally, as he dropped the large pieces of wood on the ground. Julia nodded and turned to Lex.
"I need bandages," Julia said, "Long ones."
"Okay," Lex said.
"Where are they?" Wally asked.
"In the kitchen in the bottom draw of the brown cupboard," Lex said, watching as a green blur left and returned. Wally handed Julia the bandages.
"I need help in lifting his wing as I wrapped it," Julia said, Oliver and Bruce rushed over and gently lifted the wing. "And I need some one to hold the wood."
"I'll do that," Superman said.
"Clark," Lana mumbled, the named man turned and looked at Lana regretfully. "What's going on?"
"We should go into another room," Clark said, "Chloe you may want to come too."
"Uh- huh," Chloe muttered.
"Uh, actually, Clark do you mind if I talk to her first?" Don asked.
"No, not at all," Clark said, Don smiled weakly as Clark and Lana walked away.
"Um, Julia do you need any more help?" Don asked.
"Are you a vet or a Thanagerian healer?" Julia asked.
"No," Don muttered, wondering why she would ask him about being a vet.
"There's your answer," Julia said as she began to slowly reshape the large wing to its right position. The unconscious man whimpered slightly. Don nodded before turning to Chloe.
"Shall we go?" He asked. Chloe nodded wordlessly as she followed him out the door.
"Where the hell is Shayera?" Julia snapped.
"Not sure," Lex said. "Remember she went flying with GL."
"Any one gone to find them?" Julia asked, "They may be in danger."
"John's gone," Bruce said, as Julia finished wrapping the large wing.
------------
"I'm not really sure how to start," Don muttered, uncomfortably. Chloe stared at him with a bewildered look on her face.
"Why was your dad wearing a cape?" She finally asked.
"Uh, he isn't my dad," Don said, playing with his fingernails.
"So Kara and Michael…"
"Are just good friends," Don said, "Kara and Kal-El are related though."
"You still haven't explained the cape," Chloe said, somewhat coldly.
"You probably won't believe me, but we're Superheroes from another reality," Don said, earning stunned look from Chloe. "Kal-el or Superman is pretty much Clark from our world."
"If you're from another reality why the hell did you get into a relationship with me," Chloe snapped, angrily, "I mean if you lived in Australia or Timbuktu, then fine, that's what emails are for! But now I find out you come from another reality altogether! Was this just some stupid prank you're playing on me?"
"Of course not! But this isn't exactly the easiest thing to come out with," Don said, "It's not like saying 'Hi, I'm gay.'"
"You're gay?" Chloe barked, questioningly.
"No!" Don groaned at his stupidity, as he rubbed his forehead. "What I meant is my secret could put you in danger."
"You're from another reality," Chloe said, "What danger will that put me in?"
"I'm a superhero, Chloe," Don mumbled. "I have enemies, and if they know-God I sound like Batman."
"Superhero?" Chloe asked, coldly.
"Sounds stupid, I know," Don said, "But it's true."
"So what do you do?" Chloe asked.
"I don't think any body would believe me," Don muttered, "its stupid really."
"Will you just tell me?" Chloe groaned.
"I'll show you," Don said, realising it was easier to explain anything when seen.
---------------
"So your powers came from the rocks?" Lana asked.
"No," Clark said, nervously. "I- eh- I'm an alien. From a planet called Krypton. I know this sounds insane but it's true. I didn't tell you because, well… it's not exactly a normal secret people have."
"Oh Clark!" Lana cried, "You could have told me! I wouldn't have thought of you differently. You should know that!"
"I suppose," Clark said.
"Well how does your family fit into this?" Lana asked, "Are they aliens too?"
"No," Clark said, "Well actually some are. This is really confusing."
"Tell me about it," Lana laughed.
"Kal-el is actually me," Clark said, "It's my name in Kryptonian. He and a few of his friends are from another reality of our world. One where I become a superhero, when I'm older."
"So you don't become a reporter for the daily planet?"
"Oh I do that too," Clark said.
"So who are they?"
"Kara and Kal-El are cousins, so she is technically my cousin, Wally, Michael and Diana is just friends," Clark said, "They are just from a different reality to ours."
"I think of all the weird things I've seen in Smallville," Lana smiled, "This one topped it off."
"Yeah, but it was their fault," Clark smiled, back in relief.
"So who are they all?" Lana asked.
"Well there's Superman, that's me," Clark said. "The Flash, Wonderwoman, Batman, Green Lantern, Shayera Hol and J'onn Jonezz. They were the founding members of the group they called Justice League."
"How many are there?"
"A lot apparently," Clark said. "Only a few of them came here."
"Like who?"
"Hawk and Dove," Clark said, "That's Don and his brother. Then there's Booster Gold or Michael."
"Your brother, who isn't quite your brother," Lana added.
"Yeap," Clark said, "Kara is Supergirl. There's Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Fire."
"How does Julia fit into this?" Lana asked, "How did she know Gator? I think that's what she called him?"
"I think she said Kator," Clark said. "She's Shayera Hol from our world. You haven't met Shayera yet."
"So Julia is Shayera?" Lana asked.
"Yeah," Clark said, "Bruce Wayne is Batman, Bart is the Flash and John is Green Lantern. Oh and Diana is Wonderwoman."
"Who's Bart?" Lana asked.
"The kid with the broken leg," Clark said.
"Oh yeah," Lana said, "So what's a Thanagerian?"
"I still don't really get that," Clark said, "but Julia should be able to explain it."
--------------
Chloe stood with her mouth wide open as Don stood in front of her now dressed in the blue and white Dove costume after saying the word.
"How the?"
"Magic, I guess," Don muttered from behind the mask, "My brother morphs into the same thing only it's red instead of blue. And he says Hawk."
"What does the costume do?"
"Makes me a little faster and agile," Dove replied. "My brother grows stronger."
"Oh," Chloe murmured. "How'd you get your powers? Was it through the meteor rocks?"
"Huh? No, it's a long and complicated story," Dove said. "Why do you always blame the rocks?"
"That's a long and complicated story too," Chloe said, softly. "Look, this is just too much to take in one day. I need to go home."
"Would you like me to take you?" Don asked.
"No," Chloe said, walking out of the room. "I'll drive, I'll see you around."
"Chloe!" Don ran after her.
"Bye Don," the door shut in his face inches from breaking his small nose.
"Chloe…"
----------------
"Well, that was interesting," Shayera said, as she flew behind Green Lantern who was using his ring to make animal shape in the clouds. "That monkey kind of reminds me of Wally?"
"Guess who this elephant is," John said carving into the clouds with a green light. A large elephant with a boob tube top floated above them with a 'W' puffed out on the elephant's chest.
"Is that Diana?" Shayera said, sniggering. "Don't let her see it. Do Superman."
"Hmmm, I don't know what animal he reminds me off," John said, before carving something else into the clouds.
"That's a cat," Shayera said, "A very angry, in a bad mood cat. It's Batman, right?
"Yeap," GL laughed, "The monkey was annoying him."
"The monkey annoys everyone," Shayera said. "Yet some how we manage not to kill that pesky monkey."
"Somehow," Green Lantern said, firing more blasts from his ring into the clouds parting them.
"John!" The pair turned to see the younger John Stewart flying over towards them, looking worried. "Man, I'm glad to see ya!"
"John? What's going on?" Shayera asked.
"Julia's bro landed on earth," John said, "He's hurt."
"Who?" Shayera asked.
"Kathy, or whatever his name is," John said, "either way, your friends from Thanagar are gonna come down t' earth."
"What?" Shayera and GL called.
"We need to get back to the manor," John said.
----------------
"That's it," Julia said, watching Superman slowly laid Kator on the sofa. "We just have to wait until he wakes."
"He'll be okay though right," Bart asked, limping over towards her on his crutches.
"He should be, yes," Julia said, pulling her mace towards her lovingly.
"Are you getting ready to fight?" Bruce asked, "Because I don't believe they've arrived yet."
"I hope for their sakes they don't arrive," Julia said, stroking her mace causing it to sizzle up in electricity.
"Relax," Diana said, moving away slowly. "You might electrify you self before they come."
"Electricity doesn't hurt me," Julia said, as Shayera and the Green Lanterns flew in. "It's about time."
"What the hell is going on?" Shayera asked, staring at Kator with wide eyes.
"Thanagerians will be arriving soon," Batman said, "But we have to get Luthor and the others and leave."
"We can leave after we help them," Wonderwoman said.
"We can't stay here any longer," Batman said.
"We are staying," Shayera said. "We can get Luthor and his merry friends later."
"We can't stay here any longer," Batman repeated.
"We're staying," Shayera and Diana said together.
"The women have spoken," Clark said, as he walked into the room, with Lana trailing behind him. "Julia, do you know where the Thanagerians are now?"
"No idea," Julia said, "I'm guessing they may arrive today, tomorrow or some time this week."
"Bruce," Clark turned to the billionaire, "How long will it take to get us suited up?"
"A few hours," Bruce said.
"We need uniforms," Clark said, turning to Bart. "How's your leg?"
"Getting better," Bart said. "I think it should be better in a few days."
"Great," Clark said, "Any one got a clue where J'onn is?"
"Nope," Julia said.
"We should go to Mars," Bart said.
"That will take to long," Clark said, turning to Batman and Superman, "He can read minds right? Do you he can hear us from here?"
"Possibly," Batman said, "Perhaps Bart's right, some one should go to Mars."
"I'll go," Wally said.
"Wally," Batman sighed, "There isn't any air in space and you need oxygen."
"I'll go," Superman said, "It won't take to long."
"Okay, we'll see you soon," Batman said, as Superman blasted out of another window.
"Hey!" Lex said, "Stop breaking my windows."
"Where the hell is Booster Gold?" Hank suddenly asked.
"Last time I saw him, he was at the farm," Kara said. "Why?"
"He doesn't know," Hank said, "And the guy's any idiot. He needs to know the Hawks are coming. Otherwise he might walk up to them and offer them a cookie."
"You have a point but I think we may have a few days til they show," Batman said. "Kator here probably arrived before them to warn Julia. Lana, just were did you find him?"
"Next to a space ship," Lana said.
"I'll be back in a second," Wally said, before zooming off. Several seconds later he arrived again, "Sorry that took long but I wasn't sure were the ship was, but I found it."
"And?" Batman asked.
"Thanagerian," Wally said. Julia walked over to her fellow Thanagerian and poked him.
"Kator, wake up now," Julia said, sharply, "Get up! Don't make me hit you."
"Shay…" the smaller man groaned, "What hap-happened?"
"You crashed on earth," Julia said. "Why are you here?"
"Thanagerians!" He shouted sitting up quickly, only to fall back with a loud groan. "Ow! What is wrong with me?"
"Your wing is broken as are several ribs," Julia said, still stroking her mace. "Where are they?"
"How long have I been out for?" Kator asked, peering fearfully at the mace. He knew her better then anyone, he knew how short her temper was and how dangerous she could be with the mace.
"You were found today," Julia said, "I don't think you were here for more then a day."
"They should be here in thirty hours," Kator said.
"So we have a day and a bit," Wally said.
"No," Shayera said. "We have twenty hours. Thanagerian hours are shorter."
"Oh shit," Wally groaned.
"You could say that again," Julia said, as Kator rubbed his sore stomach.
"Were all gonna die aren't we?" Bart muttered.
"No we are not going to die," Batman snapped.
