Chapter 21: Angels Fall and Devils Rise

Location: Military Camp in the Middle East desserts

In a room that had a soft glowing green sat the once proud Superman. The hero, who stood for everything that was good, now reduced to a lab rat. They were using him and the few superheroes left as tools to create weapons...armor from Wonder Woman bracelets, a camouflage suit based off Metamorpho (Rex Mason) abilities, a laser as stronger as Superman's own laser vision. And if that wasn't worse, they used the non-powered were used as lab rats for any medical chemicals or "incentives" in case any of the power-holding superhero got a little out of hand.

Superman was pulled from his thoughts by the sound of his cell door opening.

"Oh, how might have fallen," the guard said, entering his cell.

"One day, you all will pay for what you have done," Superman said, not looking at the guard.

"Really, what are you going to do...Kill me as you did your so-called friends," the guard taunted, and superman lunged at him. The guard reached his weapon and smack Superman in the head with it, knocking him to the ground.

"Don't forget...in this room, you are weak and easily dealt with," the guard said, before leaving.

~JUSTICE LEAGUE~

Location: Bucharest, Romania

Out in the outskirts, near a railroad, a still in construction building is being occupied by H.E.O.M.A.A. general along with his thugs. On the top floor tied to a chair is a woman. She is barefooted and covering in bruises and cuts. Her hair is a mess of caramel curls; and her black dress is torn in places, much to the pleasure of her capturers.

"Acest lucru nu este modul în care mi-am dorit seara pentru a merge." (This is not how I wanted the evening to go.) the general said.

"Știu cum ai vrut în această seară pentru a merge ... Crede-mă, acest lucru este mai bine." (I know how you wanted this evening to go…Believe me, this is better.) the woman replied.

"Am ajuns la acest cos nu numit de un oraș pentru un sfat pe o tabără meta, și mi se pare încerci să seducă unul din căpitanii mei." (I come to this no named pimple of a town for a tip on a meta camp, and I find you trying to seduce one of my captains.) the general said and then signaled on of the thugs behind her chair. The thugs grabbed the chair and moved her to the open shaft in the middle of the room and tipped the chair back so it was balancing on the edge.

"M-am gândit Generală Snyder a fost responsabil de captare meta." (I thought General Snyder was in charge of meta capture.) The woman said, the fear clear on her face.

"Snyder? Reputatia ta este destul de o progresie. Faimosul mic Shrikethrush... nimic altceva decât un chip frumos." (Snyder? Your reputation is quite a progression. The famous little Shrikethrush...nothing but a pretty face.) the general said, moving over to a table filled with tools.

"Chiar crezi că sunt drăguță?" (You really think I'm pretty?) The woman asked, before one of the thugs grabbed her face.

"Nu pentru mult timp" (Not for long) the general said, walking over to the woman with a pair of pliers. Just as the general was forcing her mouth open, one of the thug's cellphone rang.

"Serios."(Seriously.) The gereral yelled, moving away from the woman.

"Ye?" The thug said, answering the phone and then turned to the general, "It's for you."

"Who the hell is..." the general yelled, taking the phone.

"You're at Bucharest Metal Works, top floor. We have an F22 exactly 8 miles out. Put the woman on the phone or I will blow up the block before you can make the lobby." A man on the line said.

The general looks down at the phone and then at the woman. And then he moves to the woman and places the phone against her ear, since she was tied to the chair.

"What the hell are you thinking," the woman said, holding the phone with her shoulder.

"Talia, we need you to come in," the man said.

"We need you to come in," the man said.

"Are you kidding? I'm working," the woman-Talia-said.

"This takes precedence," the man replied.

"I'm in the middle of an interrogation and this moron is giving me everything," Talia argued.

"I don't give everything," the general said, looking at the two thugs, and Talia gave him a look.

"Look, you can't pull me out of this right now," Talia said.

"It's the Commander," the man said, and that made the world seem to pause. Or at least, it made Talia's world pause.

"Let me put you on hold," Talia said.

She nods to the general. As he comes to take the phone off her, Talia hits him with her leg and headbutts him. Still tied, she stands up and starts attacking the thugs. she rolls over one thug after she trips him. She then stomps on the other thug's foot with peg of the chair, then knocks him out with a headbutt.

She then flips over and falls down hard on the first thug, breaking the chair. She rolls away and sees the thug stand. She runs at him drop kicking him, falls down and flips right back up and wraps her legs around his neck and knocks him out cold.

She goes over to the general, who is struggling to stand, and grabs the general, wraps his leg around with a hanging chain and drops him down the open shaft, dangling.

"Get me a car," Talia said, after picking up the phone and her heels and walking away.
