Just four hours ago; the team was sent on a mission to stop Lex Luthor, but it didn't go well when the team was ambushed by a group of operatives hired by Luthor. His plan was to keep the team from interfering which he did successfully. After the failed mission; Aqualad inform Batman of what happened. The Dark Knight was puzzled by what the leader of the team said.
He could not believe it when Aqualad told him. He told Batman that his team was ambushed by clone versions of the team. Aqualad also told Batman that the clone not only can talk and think like them, but they have the same abilities.
He sits by the computer looking at the medical history from six months ago at Bialya when the team encountered a creature that attacked them. "It isn't a surprise you're still up Master Bruce" Alfred says as he approaches Batman who is unmasked but still wearing his costume.
"Six months ago; the team went to Bialya to stop Queen Bee. The team had found her base hoping to stop the dictator, but when got there; they found that all of the soldiers were dead including Psimon and Queen Bee. The team then encountered the creature that was responsible for her demise. They didn't get a close look it, only the tentacles that attacked them" Bruce explains.
Bruce then shows the injury of that the team suffered. "The mark that each team member had in their right arm, showed a small dot indicated that a needle was injected into their skin" He tells Alfred.
"Meaning something was injected inside to them" Alfred asks. "No, as it something was taking blood from the team. The team had also suffered a severe migraine which lasted for a week prior to their unexpected attack" Bruce responds.
"How can the Light managed to make clones of the team" Alfred asks. "I don't think it was the Light that created the clones" he responds.

Excella walks at a secret hallway until she reaches the end of the location. She sees that no one is here except for seven video screens. "I came all this way and no one is here. Is this some kind of a joke" said an upset Excella.
"It is no joke" said a man in dark voice. "Who said that" she asks. "I did" said Vandal Savage as he approaches to the main room along with Black Manta, Sportsmaster, and Deathstroke. She is now face to face with members of Light. "Finally, I see you in person Vandal Savage" Excella says.
"Forgive me if still show hatred over you. You know since you were responsible for Queen Bee's murder" Savage tells her in an angry tone. "You're still upset over the loss of Queen Bee" Excella asks the immortal one.
"You have to forgive Savage. After all, it's hard to get over the fact that you had her killed"said Ra's al Ghul who appears on screen along with Lex Luthor, The Brain, and Klarion.
"Hmm still holding a grudge" Excella tells the Light. "It's just a reminder" Luthor says.
"And despite the fact what you have done, we were impressed on how your operatives successfully prevented the young heroes from interfering" Savage tells Excella.
"Speaking of your operatives, where are they" Deathstroke asks. "Savage told you to bring them" Sportsmaster says. Excella steps aside as Light's enforcer notices six shadowed figures behind her.
"These must be the operatives that I've heard so much about" said Vandal Savage.
"Is there a reason why your operatives are remaining in the shadows" Manta asks.
"They must be freaks" as Deathstroke takes a guess of the operatives hiding in the dark. "What a joke" Sportsmaster say. As both Deathstroke and Sportsmaster laugh at Excella's operatives; one of them shoots an arrow between the two enforcers. In which causes the two to stop laughing. Sportsmaster picks up the arrow, looking at which his eyes begin to open wide. "This, this is Artemis' arrow."
"Well no duh…dad" said a female voice as she forward revealing herself. "Artemis" is the only Sportsmaster could say. Another figure behind Excella starts to laugh as Robin emerges from the shadows. "What's Robin doing here" Deathstroke asks.
"Robin; along with Artemis are my operatives" Excella tells the mercenary. "What about the other four" Manta asks. Excella looks back as Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian, and Aqualad emerge from the shadows. "These are your operatives" Savage asks. "Yes they are" she responds.
"What did you do to Artemis" an angry Sportsmaster says, getting in her face. "I didn't do anything to her" Excella put her hand at his face. She then raises her eyebrow at what Sportsmaster asked her.
"Why are you so concern about Artemis" Excella asks.
"Artemis is Sportstmaster's daughter" Ra's tells her.
"How cute your daughter is a hero? That must really hurt; that Artemis decides to fight crime instead of being a criminal like her father" Excella says laughing at Sportsmaster.
"You better start explaining yourself" as Sportsmaster glares at her in anger. She steps forward looking at all members of the Light.
"Very well, I am the regional director of a pharmaceutical company known as TRICELL that specializes in medicine" Excella explains.
"You do more than medicine don't you" Black Manta asks.
"You are absolutely right. The company specializes in creating Bio Organic Weapons. The only problem, they could not be controlled. That's when I've heard of Cadmus" Excella tells Manta.
"What does Cadmus have to do with your company" Luthor asks.
"Your facility has developed experiments called genomorphs" Excella responds. "How did you know about the genomorphs" Vandal Savage asks.
"Well I do know that you created two Superman clones using DNA from a Kryptonian and a human" Excella tells Savage as she looks at Lex Luthor.
"That mysterious creature that attacked Queen Bee and the team, your company created it" Luthor asks. "You are correct" she responds.
"But you said your creations could not be controlled. How did you control the creature" Ra's asks. Excella just smiles at Ra's al Ghul asked her.
"You were at Cadmus weren't you" Luthor asks.
"I pretended to work there as a scientist, working side by side with Dr. Spencer, teaching me about genomorphs. On how the creatures they created can communicate telepathically. So I secretly took samples of the genomorphs and used it on the Bio Organic Weapons" Excella tells Luthor.
"So that's how the creature obeyed you. I have to say, I'm impressed." said Savage who then smiles.
"Even though you posed as scientist just to steal information about the genormorphs, I won't hold a grudge about what you did" Luthor adds.
"The genormorphs is what I need for Bio Organic Weapons" Excella tells Luthor. "What about these operatives beside you" Manta asks.
"The operatives you see before you are clones of the young heroes who have been interfering" she responds.
"I just got one question; how did the clone Artemis knew who I was" Sportsmaster asks.
"The creature that attacked the young heroes took not only their DNA from them but a portion of the brain cell as well" Excella tells Sportsmaster.
"Amazing that the creature was able acquire their memories"said Ra's al Ghul
"These clones are the ultimate evolution of Bio Organic Weapons" Excella tells the Light. "Human cloning; interesting" Luthor says to Excella.
"It's similar to your two Superman clones" Ecxella says.
"Project Match was a project to attempt to clone Superman. However, Match was a complete failure"Lex tells her.
"There there was Project Kr, a hybrid clone of Superman and Lex Luthor" Excella says.
"Thanks to Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash along with Superboy; Project Kr had to be shut down after being exposed" Luthor tells her with a strict look.
"Well don't worry, my operatives will make sure they don't interfere" she tells Luthor.
"Then it is official, we have all agreed for you to be the replacement of the late Queen Bee. Excella Gionne; you are one with the Light" Savage tells her.
Sportsmaster approaches to the Artemis clone "you know I got to say; I really wanted Artemis to join the family ties" He says to her.
"The difference between me and the phony; is that I respect your legacy" E. Artemis tells her father.
"Does that mean we're also one with the Light" E. Kid Flash asks the other members of the Light.
"What kind of question is that? If Excella is one with the Light then so are we" E. Robin tells E. Kid Flash.
"I got a question; when are we going to hurt those goody two shoe heroes" E. Superboy asks while cracking his knuckles. "I due time my boy" Luthor tells Superboy's evil counterpart.
"Since now we are all here; the Light can begin" Vandal Savage says as he looks to all the other members including Excella.
