Loud explosion's ring out across the city of Metropolis as the alien factor continue to be under heavy attack, many civilians had already left the arena while some stay behind to watch the battle unfold before their very eye's as two new heroes battle the invader's! Lighting seem to flying over head as Static was launch into building by a red beam, (Okay that hurt!) Static groan standing up from inside the building. The only reason he wasn't kill was because he put up a barrier around him at the last second. Looking at the incoming Walker that had blasted him, he take a deep breath than charging him self with power and rush at the alien, jumping oh his disk and flying through him at high speed coming out of the other side!
The walker seem to groan for a moment then fell down, "Whoo hoo! That one down and-! Oh crap!" Static gasp quick flying out of the way of a Walker body being throw at him."
"Pay attention boy, I almost hit you!" Diana yell flying over with a leg of the Walker she finish off and spear the last one with, "Whoa, remind me not to get on her bad side." Vigil mutter until he realize there were no more enemy Walker's outside and knew now was the time to attack the factor, Diana using the leg she was carrying she spear a hole through the wall of the factor allowing Static to fly inside.
Landing on the ground Static quickly put up a force field as the white alien invader began firing lasers at him, the energy attack bounce harmlessly of his shield and Static counter attack with an electric blast from his eye's taking two of them out! The other seeing this ran just as Diana landed next to him.
"Good work boy, now onward! Victory shall be ours!" Diana yell rushing in with Static right behind her.
Meanwhile Flash and Green Lantern were having a much harder time in a jungle, mainly due to Flash acting on his own only to get stuck in a sticky residue from the factory. Green Lantern quickly freed Flash and lecture him about team work before he himself was attacked by the walkers, who responding to his green energy fired a gas bomb at him that managed to get through his defense. The gas itself was affecting his breathing and knocked him out.
The Flash thinking quickly blow the gas away by spinning his hands at super speed and took John over his shoulder before spiriting away.
Elsewhere Superman and Hawkgirl quickly take out the walkers and entered the factory, coming in contact with the enemy there as well but the winged hero easily finish them off. They ascent to the core was going as planed until they were trapped in a gas chamber with a powerful knockout gas jetting from the walls that successfully managed to render them unconscious.
The heroes found themselves cut off. J'onn's eyes glowed yellow for a couple of seconds until they fade and he had a grim expression on his face. "Superman and Hawkgirl are down. They have failed!" he said his eyes returning to their orange color.
"What? Are you certain? What about the others!?" asked Batman, wanting to know how bad things were getting.
"Green Lantern and Flash are pulling back to regroup for another assault, Diana has enter the factor and is making her way to the lower lever, Static is most likely with her." J'onn's answer but Batman eye's narrow.
"Most likely, you can't tell?" Batman ask, J'onn's simply look at him for a moment.
"No I can't, you have to understand, I didn't call him with you and the other's, it was his girlfriend who pick up on my telepathic link and when he came here I didn't even sense it. His powers are some how enabling him to in avoiding any telepathic detection." J'onn's replied and Batman let that sink in, (So psychics can't sense him, huh.) Batman thought filing that away for later, someone invisible to telepathy's could come in handy.
"At any rate we best get moving, this way!" J'onn's yell as he and Batman rush off.
After running through the maze of tunnels of the facility Static and Diana reach the central core, looking around they saw alien workers working on what look like organic computer like machines both hide up top while surveying the arena.
"Well ain't this a nice set up they got here." Static mutter as he and Diana look down below them.
"Be that as it may, we need to think of away to take this place down." Diana stated as Static look around but then something caught his, a red crystal floating in a dome like field and it was giving off a lot of power.
"I can feel some pretty high energy levels coming from that stone, it seem to be powering the whole place. I bet if we take that out this whole place could goes down!" Static grinned as Diana crackle her knuckles with a smirk, ready to do just that.
"So be it then, I'll take down the guards, and you take the crystal." with that said Diana quickly caught site of a organic pipe and grabbed it, with a pull it came out of it socket flooding the floor below them with gas. Static grin flying into the smoke and coming up to the stand next to the energy field holding the crystal. The Alien on the stand up to see the boy coming at him and reach for his blaster only to get zap off the stand by Static who then landed on there and pull the crystal out.
'BOOOOOOOM' "Whoa didn't think just taking the crystal would cause this place to fall part. Cool!" Static comment as several explosion went off, "Well done boy, now I think it time we take our leave!" Diana shouted throwing a invader away and flew down to the door way. Static still holding the crystal was quick to jump of his disk and follow after her, Exiting the factory was a lot easier then entering since the two mainly just blasted and their way through any enemy that got in their way until they reach outside.
"Man are we good or what!" Static grin as he and Diana flew off from the exploding factory, "Indeed, victory is ours!" Diana declare loudly only to pause and place a hand up to her head causing Static to wonder what happen.
"Yes J'onn I hear you... Static right next to me, we just take out the facility." Diana said and Static understood she was talking to their new alien buddy from Mars.
"WHAT! Are you sure... I got it, we'll head there now." Diana said and turn to Static.
"What going on, bad news?" he asked and she nodded.
"Yes, it would seem Superman and Hawkgirl have been capture!" Static gasp at hearing this, (They take out our biggest heavy hitter? That ain't good!) Static thought his good mood gone.
"We need to meet up with J'onn and stage a counter attack." Diana said, Static nodded.
"Well if they got the big guy, I guess we ain't got no choice. Let's put a shock to their system!" Diana laugh at the teen's energetic nature as they both flew off.
Dakota- Saint Adams street
In her home Madelyn couldn't get any sleep due to worry for her boy friend, right after he left the whole world went to hell as a massive alien attack happen, thankfully Dakota hadn't been hit... yet. However Metropolis was! she had been looking at every new channel she could find to learn what was happening but got nothing, seem that they were too afraid to go near where the fighting was happen which made sense but it left her without a clue as to where Virgil was or what had happen to him.
Madelyn telepathic powers didn't work on him so she had no way to connect him, "I can't believe I've been reduce to playing the scared girlfriend waiting for her boyfriend to come back safe." Madelyn mutter looking at the only new channel that had anything on that was about the invasion. So far it was only had the attack going on at the city, however her eye's widen as they showed another ship coming to the city,
"This is reporter Carr, government sources have confirmed the approach of another object from space. They predict it will be roughly five times the size of the first lander. Senator Carter had this to say."
Madelyn couldn't stop the worry that shot through her as she some how knew Virgil was right in the middle of that. "Virgil... please be safe."
Metropolis
"AWWWWW! What hit me!" Virgil groan as he woke up to see that he and the other six heroes are being held captive, remaining heroes regroup in Metropolis and prepare to free Hawkgirl and Superman as they needed their help when J'onn warns that they do not have much time, as the Imperium— the leader of the Invaders — will be arriving soon. They quickly breach the facility, managing to fight off the aliens and found Superman and Hawkgirl in a holding cell, but it's a trap. The two heroes are actually aliens in disguise, and the rest of the heroes are captured.
"Earth Mightiest Heroes welcome." one of the aliens said standing before them as the superheros where trap into some kind of harden clay wall that kept them from breaking free. he then suddenly morph into a man in a blue business suit.
"Senator Carter!" Superman gasp as the fake senator smirk at him, "Unfortunate the real Carter never made it back from Mars." Superman snarl at his words.
"And you used me to weaken Earth defense's!" Super growl realizing he was played, "You were so eager to cooperate, thanks to you the humans were total helpless against us." the fake said mockingly before blasting the man of steel when he tried to break free, (Well this just keeps getting better and better.) Static thought darkly as he tried to power up his hands, he felt the electricity flow through them but what ever this cay stuff was it was able to keep him power in check for the most part.
"I'll need a very strong burst if I want to break out." Static whisper to himself, before turning back spotting them opening the ceiling to let a small ship come through from the top, "All hail... the Imperium!" fake Carter said as he and the rest of the aliens made a walk way when a small section of the ship open up shooting smoke out of it that clear up to show a... thing come out of it.
"Okay now that is just gross." Static said dryly, as the Imperium basic look like a giant purple blob with tentacles coming out of it, "J'onn J'onzz... it been a long time." the Imperium waving it tentacles to bring J'onn to the deck where he was shock until he turn back to his normal state.
"Okay now that is just mass up!" Static snapped trying harder to free himself as he wasn't to help seeing that, "Much better." the Imperium said please to see J'onn in such a weaken state.
"You have defied us for century." the Imperium comment as J'onn slowly rose to his feet, "And I will never bow to you or any of your kind!" J'onn replied at the monster that cause the death of his whole race.
"Then I will personnel see to it what should have been done long ago, the extinction of the last Martian!" the Imperium at the parasitic creature that had its tentacles in J'onn's skin and pulling him inside him then began to torment the Martian!"
"You son-!" Static roar as he and Superman tried even harder to free themselves, "Yield to us J'onn J'onzz, The Imperium order, enjoying the pain and the torture that he was causing the Martain. "Never!"
"Why do you resist?" Imperium asked mockingly. "Embrace this truth. After all those years, you have finally lost."
"Have I?" J'onn question in pain but his voice was now the one doing the mocking.
"You're hiding something, a secret deep in the recesses of your mind. Is this another of your Martian trick?" J'onn's eyes widened as the tentacle of the Imperium moved through his head. "Do I sense fear, J'onn? What are you hiding?"
"Now!" J'onn's shouted.
Above the heads of the captured heroes were the heart of the factory is located, an explosion was heard and everyone's attention turned to the source. A shadow loomed above them whom planted an device at the ION Crystal that made the crimson energy source blue, reversing the process as a blue light shot out of the factory, changing the clouded weather to a clear clean sky were sunlight poured through. The heroes noticing the familiar form of a the Dark Knight. Batman!
"Batman!" Exclaimed Flash as Diana look on in shock.
"It can't be." The princess' voice was full of wonder and slight shock, J'onn gaining his form back answered their thoughts "I mentally shielded him so he couldn't be detected." Batman plunged his hand holding the emitter pushing it in the ion crystal activating it. Instantly the red layers that surrounded the crystal and the walls turned blue.
"What have you done?" asked the fake senator Carter.
"Reversed the ion charge" responded the dark knight dryly.
"The crystal! Destroy it!" ordered the Imperium urgently as Batman jumped from the crystal to his comrades avoiding the blasts, however all their lasers blasts did nothing to the crystal. It already hardened.
"It's shielded!" The facility started to pulse a blue light to the skies and the dark clouds started to dissipate letting sunlight shine on the facility.
Instantly the aliens started to burn from the scorching light, some even began to melt and evaporate instantly. The Imperium himself started to burn while the others took cover in the shade. J'onn managed to free himself from the vile creature and grabbed its tentacles pulling it to the light.
"You live underground and shun the light! WHY! Does it burn your pale putrid skin!" The creature continued to scream in agony burning and melting in the scorching ultraviolet rays of the sun.
Batman landed next to Diana and begin using a laser gun to release her, "Ultraviolet rays, coming from deep space, they have no resistance against our sun's radiation." It was Batman that answered their unasked question.
"So you did find a weakness after all." Spoke Diana freeing herself as Superman smile from bathing in the sunlight his eye's growl red and shooting his heat vision at the clay to free himself!
"DESTROY THEM!" ordered the Imperium its voice wavering, The invaders proceeded to fire their weapons at the superheroes however to late it came as the man of steel was already set free and he quickly flew down and pulled up a part of the ground using it as a shield to buy the others time!
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAA!" Static roar as bolts of electricity few off his arms until and the clay prison burst around freeing him.
"Finally! Want to join in the fun!?" Static grinned blasting Hawkgirl's left arm free that held her mace, she smirk at this, "Thank kid!" she replied breaking the clay around Green Lanterns arm's. Flash was freed last when Diana smash his leg free.
Now free Hawkgirl and Static were they first to attack as both flew into the air, Static began blasting the aliens around J'onn trying to stop his attack on the Imperium flew down and used her mace to smash the invaders into piles of goo while Flash, and Green Lantern were punching and scattering them around. Superman flew through the surface of the facility and making holes that let sunlight to enter and hit the invaders burning them. The rest of the superheroes proceeded to help him and ripped entire sections of the roof letting sunlight enter.
"Now this is what I'm talking about!" Static grinned seeing them finally winning, seeing a few trying to make a run for it, he quickly flew down and blast them with a smirk, that fell at seeing the room they were running into.
"Holy crap! Static said stun as he hover into a room full of people trap in red pods, wrapping energy around his hand he slashed at one of the pods causing it to fall part and the person inside to fell allowing him to catch him.
"Hey, these people are still alive and- Ugh gross!" Static groan at the slime covering the man he caught, back at the fight, the Imperium managed to free itself from the J'onn's grip by shocking him and get into its shuttle. The entrance closed and started to fly to the ship but Diana used her lasso to grip its tail its ascent.
Superman seeing his down new friend flew to him to help him up but the alien started blasting him in the back, which only annoyed him, so he used his heat vision to cut open a hole in the wall behind them crushing to and burning the last one in the sunlight. As Diana held The shuttle fired a beam from the tail and the princess was forced to deflect it thus releasing her grip. The shuttle started to fly away but Hawkgirl flew above it and charged her mace before smashing the nose disabling it. She continued to strike it, further damages it with her mace, and swings it into the factory!
Some on the falling debris of the factor nearly crush Batman but he ran him out of the way, "We'd hate to lose you again." Flash comment as more of the factor started exploding.
"Wait! Where Static!?" Diana called not seeing the youngest member of their group anywhere, "Right here!" Static called flying out of the room he was while pulling a slab of the he broke off by an electric line. Said slab was holding nearly a dozen people on top of it that he had freed.
"Is that everyone?" Superman ask flying next to him, "Yeah... didn't see anyone, else." Static replied staining to hold up the heavy load of people, seeing this Green Lantern flew next to them.
"Good job kid, I'll take it from here." he said putting a force field on people he freed, the other heroes quickly evacuate the captured humans being held there, before the factory explodes. Many of the captured humans look on in awe as with the factory gone the sky's began to clear up.
"Their getting away?" Static ask as he and the others landing on top of a building and watch as the remaining mother ship flees into space., "Let them run, with their invasion a failure they'd be foolish to try such in attack again." Batman stated.
"So that it, we won!" Static exclaimed causing the other to look at him in amuse, "Yep, you did good kid." Green Lantern said getting a happy grin from Static.
"Don't relax yet, there are still a lot of left overs we have to clean up." Batman said remaining them that they still had a lot of work to do. "Aw man!"
A month later.
Static once again found himself flying to Metropolis though this time he did so while on a cell phone, "I don't freaking believe this! has Batman never heard of taking a break!?" Madelyn exclaimed over the phone as Static sigh, since the attack him and the other heroes had been busy none stop leaving them little free time.
"I don't think so, in fact I think he might not even know what the term personnel life mean." Static replied Metropolis.
"Beside we can't just let the remaining alien pockets run free, that couldn't really come back to bite us in the ass, ya know." Madelyn groan at knowing he was right but still didn't like the lack of time together they had.
"Ya when the hero save the day he suppose to finish thing off by going home and making out with his girlfriend right?" Static smirk as he'd very much like to do that and he too hope then finish things up soon so he can spend more time with Madelyn. Looking up, he spotted Superman, Diana, and Green Lantern waiting for him in the sky.
"I know, I'm not happy about this either. Look I see big blue now. I call you back when I'm finish for the day." said hanging up before she could reply, he care about her a lot but when he was unhappy he pretty much talk his ear off none stop.
"Sup Big Blue, GL... heh Wonder Woman." Static grinned a as Diana dryly smirk at the use of her new code name, "Looks like we're here, so what part of the plant are we clearing out today." Green Lantern ask causing Superman to smile, "Actually, I thought we'd take a little break and go off work for a while."
An hour later Static found himself walking around the newly created Watch tower with his jaw drop widen open, "There no way this was built in only a month." Static stated.
"It was a secret project hidden within the R&D budget." Batman said as he came up from behind the Man of Steel, it been on the back burner for years, thought I'd finally have it built."
"Impressive. Do your stockholders know about this" Superman asked as he looked out through the window panel to the Earth below.
"A line item, hidden in the aerospace R&D budget." The Dark Night responded impassively.
"This watchtower will act as early warning system for any other invasions from space." Sliding doors could be heard as both Flash and Wonder Woman strolled through the room, ice mochas in their hands.
"And it also has a fully stocked kitchen." Flash added, feeling the need to point out the essentials, or at least what he thought of as the essentials.
"Ice mocha?" the speedster offered to Clark, "no thanks." he politely declined only for a line of energy to wrap around the cup and bring it to Static and take a sip.
"Not bad." Static admitted as Wonder Woman took a slow drawn out slurp from her drink, satisfied by its exquisite and new taste. "Mmm, they don't have these on Themyscira."
Flash raised his cup to Diana's, giving her sly smirk. "Stick around with me princess and I'll show you all the ropes." Flash grinned and Wonder Woman gave a smile to humor him. "Maybe I will."
"An impressive installation. Most impressive. But what does this have to do with us?" Green Lantern's voice cut in, as he and Hawkgirl descended down to them. Superman look at the group focusing their attention on the meeting, waiting for him to respond.
Superman walked toward the glass window, fixing his gaze on Earth as he spoke. "I once thought that I could protect the Earth by myself, but I was wrong. Working together we saved the planet, and I believe that if we stayed together as a team, we would be a force that could truly work for the ideals of peace and justice."
"What, like a bunch of Superfriends?" Flash joked in good humor.
"More like a… Justice League."
Flash made a noise of amusement. "Do you have any idea how corny that sounds? But… maybe the big man's got a point. With all of us behind it, this just might work. Count me in." The speedster stacked his hand over Superman's, which was soon followed by Green Lantern and Hawkgirl.
Wonder Woman looked down, thinking hard.
"My mother may not approve," she said. "But I found man's world intriguing. I'll gladly join." She walked forward towards the team.
"Batman...? Static...?" Wonder Woman ask as the latter rubbed his neck nervously.
"I was kind of planing on getting a job soon, between that, high school, and patrol around Dakota I don't really think I'll have anytime for a Justice League." Static stated.
"Your schooling is one thing but you can do without the job, if it money your worry about, we can work something out later. Beyond that there no reason you can't join." Batman said putting his hand on Static's back and pushing him to the others, everyone just chuckle as he place his hand on top of their's.
"Guess I'm in!" Static smile.
"What about you, Batman?" Superman asked, looking at Batman.
"I'm not much of a people person," Batman said. "But if you need me, and you will, give me a call."
"Understood," Superman said as he looked at his new team. "Then we're all agreed."
"Wait," Wonder Woman said, looking around. "J'onn's not here."
"Yeah, where is he?" Flash asked as he looked for the Martian.
Superman flew towards where J'onn was. J'onn was staring into the dark space, looking at his planet that seemed unreachable.
"J'onn, are you alright?" Superman asked, walking towards J'onn.
"My family and loved ones are long gone," J'onn said as he lowered his head. "I am the last of my kind."
"I know how that feels," Superman said as he put a hand on J'onn's shoulder.
"Now, Mars is dead and I am alone in the universe," J'onn continued.
"J'onn," Superman said. "We can never replace the family you've lost, but we'd be honored if you could learn to call Earth your home."
J'onn looked at Superman who gave him an encouraging smile. After a few moments, J'onn gave a small smile.
The three then flew back towards the others. Everyone, but Batman, walked towards them, welcoming J'onn to Earth. And So it was, the Justice League was form.
