"Okay, now we can let the Primes and Galvatron know about Jazz and they can make the decisions from there regarding how much to reveal to the news and if the Planet gets an exclusive or not"

"If not an exclusive they may choose to let them be one of the first one's to ask questions"

"Well first we have to tell the leaders about this"

"True, I'll take care of that"

An hour later and the Primes, Galvatron and Ratchet were at the medbay and surprised to see Jazz unconscious but alive

"He still needs some recovery time, but he's no longer in critical condition, we're still not sure how he survived over a week in his condition but he did, and Kathy being able to detect his aura saved his life ultimately because you know our procedures with someone we've lost"

"Indeed we do"

"We need to tell everyone about Jazz's survival"

"When and how though is the question"

"Today, in three hours, the Daily Planet gets first question rights, the next time this happens they get the exclusive as already agreed upon when we figured out the connection between Superman and a certain reporter who was there and yet not there"

"Oh so you two know about..."

"Superman and Clark Kent being the same person, yes"

"Does he know that you guys know?"

"Yes, the founding members of the League told us their identities back when you first got involved with them as a safety feature where if they absolutely had to take you in temporarily for your health or safety we would know where to go to pick you up"

"Oh...didn't know that"

"But we also told him that we had figured it out for ourselves about three years before he revealed himself to us"

"Oh now then since I can't be part of this interview I should get back to Jazz, besides there's something I need to do here on base that I've delayed since...since we almost lost Jazz live"

"Understood, we will thank the League again in private for helping us regain Jazz, even though we thought it was his remains that had been recovered"

"You guys make that decision without me, I'm staying completely out of this one"

Three hours later the world via the news (which meant it would take about two hours depending on if someone was watching the news or not) found out that the Cybertronians were not in fact holding a funeral for Jazz, and while that caused a stir the announcement that the reasons behind not having a funeral for him was the fact that he was actually still alive and in stable condition turned things into pandemonium for a few minutes, but after that things calmed down and the questioning began, with the Daily Planet getting the first question in. Once that was taken care of the family decided to find out exactly what Katherine had been needing to take care of since they thought they had lost Jazz

"Kathy...what were you doing for three hours?"

"It's...it's something really complicated and not exactly something I ever thought I would do"

"Kathy..."

(Sighs) "I think we need to talk about your adoption of me and what we didn't know about my feeling your auras"

And so Katherine finally explains all the aspects about her powers and their auras, including finally letting the medical team know that any medical interference with her ability to feel their auras would either kill her or seriously disable her depending on how they affected her ability to feel their auras since it was an as yet determined safety feature. She also explained that losing one of them or almost losing one of them and not being close enough to actually feel their aura fade away affected her mental health and she had needed a release through a special mental ceremony

"Being our daughter probably doesn't help matters does it?"

"No I was fighting my instincts when we thought Jazz was lost"

"You wanted to let loose your emotions but couldn't because in your League identity we don't know each other well enough for that"

"Exactly"

"How can we or the League help in the future?"

"That's something I don't know, and the ritual is a means of saying goodbye and also welcome back whenever we find out that one of our own hasn't been lost as we thought, I believe that it's worse if I see the assumed death in person or at least on screen then if I hear it from one of you guys but I don't know that for sure yet"

"What about if it's simply their time after fighting a Cybertronian illness?"

"I don't necessarily think I'll be seriously affected because I'll know it's coming and that it's probably a release from pain"

"Have you heard from your job regarding the new situation?"

"Yes I am still to take a week off to deal with everything"

"Did you tell him you're emotionally unstable at the moment?"

"Nope, he felt I would want the entire week to just revel in the fact that Jazz is actually alive and would want to be part of his initial recovery depending on how long it takes for him to get out of bed"

"Oh, not knowing that you're the one who discovered that he was alive in the first place"

"Exactly"

Suddenly though Katherine put a hand to her right ear and pressed against it and while they couldn't hear what she was hearing over the League earpiece that she was wearing at the moment (they deliberately made sure that they couldn't overhear any League conversations over earpieces since they knew that if they were needed by the League the League would contact them over their secure lines) her body language was saying that it was potentially serious. Finally though they heard her end of the conversation

"Give me five minutes then transport me to the situation" (hangs up in a way and turns to her family) "sorry guys I have to go, there's an emergency and the League has been called in and I was one of the ones that was chosen for the mission, I don't know when I'll be back though"

"Don't worry, we know you can take care of yourself and we'll have any updates regarding Jazz ready for you upon your return to base and consciousness depending on how tired you are after your mission"

"Thanks"

She quickly changes into Power Woman and let's the League know she was ready for transport where she would remain there for two days (it was a disaster zone with the occasional League enemy trying to cause trouble). Finally though things were under control and she was able to be transported back home

"Hi, situation under control enough for me to come home, time for sleep"

Katherine would sleep for a solid twelve hours before she woke up and got an update on Jazz's condition which had improved even further in the two days since she had left to handle the situation the League had needed her for (they had found out about the disaster via the news)

"He'll be allowed on light duty within two days, but I don't know after that, he's going to be restricted to the base for at least a month, maybe more depending on how things go for him"

"He's not going to like that"

"Both you and he are going to like me even less Kathy, you're both banned from radiation of any kind for the next four months at minimum, and that's on top of your self induced restrictions Kathy"

"Understood First Aid, I knew that this was a possibility"

"Wait, why is she being banned from radiation?"

"Sorry officer, but you're not allowed that information"

"Understood sir"

Soon enough the week was over and Katherine was back at the Planet and it turned out the first assignment back (her side project had yet to be taken back up) was with a nuclear power plant

"Sorry sir, but that's an assignment I'm going to have to refuse"

"What for?"

"Doctor's orders sir, I'm to stay away from radiation for the next four months"

"Which doctor?"

"First Aid sir, he also said that once he's back on duty Jazz is on the same four month restriction"

"Got it, I'll do my best to make sure that you aren't exposed to radiation of any sort then and will assign someone else to the power plant story"

"And sir, you might want to make sure that everyone else gets checked out as well when given these assignments"

"Kerenai?"

"I...it's mostly just a feeling but...between my family and other training..."

"Okay, I'll start being more careful about those assignments"

"Thanks sir, hopefully my feelings turn out to be nothing but..."

"Better safe than sorry all things considered"

"Exactly sir, exactly"

"For now...Jackson you, Olsen and Rachel are to go to the nuclear power plant, and when you get back we're checking your radiation levels"

"Understood sir"

"By the way Kerenai, how long should those checks be made?"

"Make it once a week for a month after exposure and then once a month after that for undetermined amount of time"

"Got it"

"But Kerenai..."

"No Jackson, I am not bending on this one radiation could kill you if not discovered in time, and even now there's still a small chance of death, the only reason there's a better chance then before is my family has designed treatments for radiation exposure that almost guarantee life no matter how bad the exposure is"

"Kerenai I don't..."

"Stop arguing Jackson"

"Let me finish first then Kerenai and you'll find out what I'm trying to tell you"

"Very well"

"I agree that almost everyone else should get the routine testing however I can't ever be affected by radiation which means I can't ever get radiation poisoning or sickness. This is due to previous radiation exposure which...changed me to make me immune to radiation of any kind in that while I can still be given x-rays to check for broken bones and there's a special type of radiation exposure used to check other internal issues that might not be picked up on by an MRI no matter how much radiation I am exposed to I won't get cancer or other symptoms of radiation sickness. Your family has done the tests themselves by the way Kerenai and know what they're talking about, and I think I know why you've been banned from radiation for four months and I won't be if I was in the same situation"

"You mean you can..."

"Yes, very safely too"

"Okay you're the exemption, I should have heard you out in full first but...can you honestly blame me for being protective of my coworkers?"

"No, no I can't"

"In any case the rest of the group is under the restriction as Kerenai has declared, and Jackson while you may not need the same restriction I am requesting that you be monitored for radiation exposure levels as well so as to try and limit the exposure to the office"

"That I will agree to I don't want to spread radiation to work any more than you would chief"

"Now that we're agreed on that, you guys had better get going, due to the fact that I don't necessarily have a story myself I request permission to just walk around the city to see if I can't find something later on"

"Of course Kerenai"

Ultimately Katherine did indeed have a story to take to the chief and it was big in the long run. She had managed to stumble across an underground slavery ring that went high in the offices of the city government, though fortunately it didn't reach the level of the mayor

"Only you Kerenai, really only you"

"It's taken longer than I wanted for this story as it is, there's a lot of healing to be done, by a lot of people, and some might never recover fully or at all"

"What's the federal government going to do about this?"

"I have no idea, but we'll find out in short order"

Ultimately a lot of work was done by the federal government to help those that had been freed from slavery. As for Katherine she would continue as a reporter and a Justice League member for the next 35 years, sometimes working with her family but most times not, though at least she got to work with them in her League identity enough to show emotions whenever something happened to them, even if she couldn't show as deep an emotion as she would have in her civilian life. As for her reporter life she won the highest award for her work 10 different times during her active reporting career, even though it was primarily behind the camera that she did her work. First Aid's and her fears after she had saved Jazz that one time never came to pass and eventually they found out why her powers wanted her unable to tell the difference between the family being on life support and not, because there was five different instances where the equipment was thought to be working but wasn't in reality and her sharing her powers was the only thing keeping them alive (the ones who had accidentally given her powers had managed to do a thing with medicine that she couldn't describe that would insure that her sharing her powers with her family to keep them alive was never a dangerous thing). After retirement she lived a relatively calm life until her death at a respectable age where she was buried on Earth with honors
