Welcome to the Justice League

To my reviewers:

Thank you both for your reviews and to all other supporters out there.

Chapter 6: Value to the Team

It had been two month's since the kiss between Kagome and J`onn.

And since then, there have been many more kisses between them, each one more meaningful than the previous.

The League was aware of their two teammates being in a relationship but didn't object to it. Although, Flash did like to tease the couple on a regular basis.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

Watchtower

"So, Lex Luthor has cancer?" asked Kagome in J`onn's mind. They were sitting on 'their' bench in the green house and J'onn was informing her of the mission that him, Green Lantern, Batman, and Superman had earlier that night.

"Yes," he responded, "since he held on to that piece of Kryptonite for so many years, the radiation caught up with him."

Kagome shuddered at the thought. Even if he was a villain, no one deserved such a fate.

"You feel sorry for him?" asked J`onn.

Kagome nodded, "Yes…is that wrong?"

J`onn shook his head. The entire League, including Superman, didn't wish such a severe illness on an enemy.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

A few weeks after the unfortunate encounter, Lex Luthor escaped from prison along with the Ultra-Humanite, an extremely intelligent talking gorilla. They avoided capture by distracting the authorities and the Justice League by setting fire to an apartment building.

Once the fires were put out, the League regrouped at the Watchtower.

"And I had those flames out before the firemen even got there," said Flash to Miko and Hawkgirl trying to impress them.

"It's good thing your fast," said Kagome who was annoyingly filling Flash's ego.

"I guess that explains why he can't get a date," retorted Hawkgirl.

Flash nodded at first before he caught what she meant, "Hey"

Kagome giggled at the joke.

"Quiet," ordered Batman who was at the communication station trying to catch any news on the criminals. He got lucky and caught the news report that was covering a hostage situation regarding the Ultra-Humanite.

"Call in the others," Batman ordered.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

Batman insisted that the whole League should come to the hostage situations since Luthor may have been involved. However, J`onn stayed behind just in case Ultra-Huminate was truly working alone and needed to keep an ear out for Luthor.

A small team, which was Green Lanturn, Superman, and Batman, went in first to confirm that it was a trap.

They were right.

The first team was ambushed, not only by Ultra-Humanite and Luthor, but other dangerous groups of villains; Solomon Grundy, Cheetah, Copper Head, and Star Sapphire.

After that the other heroes entered the building joining the fight.

When Kagome looked around the room, she noticed that most of the villains were being taken care of by the League members. That is until she sensed something coming from the wall, 'No, not the wall…the shadow.'

The Shade, the manipulator of shadows, emerged from his hiding place in the shadow of the wall and prepared to attack Flash using the source of his power, the nightstick. Kagome grabbed an arrow and shot right at the Shades arm sleeve pinning him to the wall.

The Shade was shocked by the arrow, since he had yet to encounter the League member known as Miko. He didn't have time to dwell on the fact, since Miko ran up to him and spin kicked him in the head knocking him unconscious. He collapsed to the ground the sleeve ripping from his arrow.

Kagome looked to see Batman having trouble with Cheetah. Kagome drew her katana and went to aid the Dark Knight.

She lunged her sword at the genetically altered animal woman but she was too fast and was able to dodge most of Kagome's strikes.

"Get Luthor," Kagome told Batman. Everyone could see Luthor was in the upper balcony enjoying the view of the Leagues struggle. The Dark Knight didn't need to be told twice and took off toward Lex Luthor.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

"We can't beat them," Ultra-Humanite yelled over at Luthor, "We must retreat."

Luthor groaned in frustration knowing that the mutated talking gorilla was right. "Shade," Luthor said to the now conscious villain again, "Get us out of here."

The Shade activated his nightstick and created a black shadow over the entire room, temporarily blinding the League.

Green Lantern was able to clear The Shade's moving darkness with his ring but saw that the villains had taken off.

"Hey we got one of them," said Flash lightly kicking an unconscious Copper Head on his side.

Superman then noticing a withering Batman near by, "They got one of us. Miko," he called to the young hero.

Kagome ran up the stairs to see Batman dripping in sweat. She lowered herself to the ground to observe what had happened. That's when she saw the fang bite marks on his shoulder, the venomous Copper Head had bitten the Dark Knight.

Using her spiritual healing powers, Kagome began to heal the wound and purifying Batman's blood.

"Will he be alright?" asked a concerned Wonder Woman.

Kagome nodded, "Yes, I can cleanse the venom from his body, but he'll need rest to recover from some of the damage," she said the last part while the wound was closing.

"Let's get him back to the Watchtower," ordered Superman.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

It was about a half hour after they arrived at the Watchtower that Batman regained consciousness.

J`onn, Kagome and Superman were in the medical bay with him.

"Luthor…the others...what happened?" asked a groaning Batman.

"They got away," J`onn informed him.

"But we did manage to get Copper Head," Kagome reassured that the fight wasn't a total loss.

"I'm on my way to interrogate him," Superman informed his friend. Batman tried to get out of bed, fully intending to go with Superman. "You're staying here. That venom almost killed you."

"So," said an unaffected Batman. Kagome couldn't help but roll her eyes at his stubbornness.

"So, you're staying here," Superman ordered, which made him receive a famous Bat glare.

Superman walked out of the room and Batman immediately got out of bed and headed into the computer room.

"Shouldn't we stop him?" asked J`onn.

Kagome shook his head, "Even if we did, he'd still find a way to try and find them." They both followed Batman to see what he was up to.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

They found Batman focused fully on the monitor.

"You should be resting," Kagome told him but knew that she was only wasting her breath. 'Doesn't hurt to try though.'

J`onn tried next, "I know it's hard for you," he said to Batman. "You're the only one on the team without special powers."

Kagome snorted, "I'd say he's the best of us because of that fact. But you don't need to prove anything you know," she reassured Batman. After all, she knew what it felt like you were the most vulnerable one in the group.

"I'm taking the shuttle," Batman said not acknowledging that he heard the two of them. "Or do you both intend to stop me?" he asked.

J`onn stepped out of Batman's way as he was heading to the shuttle.

"Batman-san…be careful," Kagome urged him.

Batman stopped at the door a little stunned that she didn't complain about him being reckless after recovering. He turned his head to stare at her for a moment and then nodded once to reassure her request.

"You think it wise to let him go alone?" J`onn asked.

"He knows his limits. He'll call when he needs us."

J`onn nodded knowing she was right, "We should get to communications," he suggested while he grabbed hold of Kagome's hand.

Kagome smiled and followed him out.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

One hour later

Kagome yawned from her seat, the bad part about her being in the League was average thirteen hour time difference between North America and Japan. Luckily she mostly worked 'night' shifts at the Watchtower so it would be day time in Japan, but she only got a handful of hours of sleep the past few nights.

"Maybe you should go rest," J`onn suggested.

Kagome shook her head, "I'll be fine," even her mental voice sounded tired.

J`onn got up from his chair and helped Kagome out of hers by grabbing both of her hands and pulling her up. "I know you're exhausted from the fight and healing Batman. So please go and rest…for me."

Kagome couldn't refuse that request, "Okay," She leaned up and kissed him sweetly on the lips.

It was meant to last only a moment but they both ended up being drawn into the kiss. He wrapped his arms around her waist and she wrapped hers around his neck as their tongues lightly brushed against each other.

When they did finally separate they were both slightly out of breath. J`onn's emotions were usually more collected then that. "I'm-I'm sorry," J`onn said in embarrassment but didn't feel the least bit guilty.

Kagome smiled at the apology, "I'm not," she said honestly. She kissed him one more time before turning away and heading to her assigned sleeping quarters.

J`onn sat back down in his chair as he tried to get a hold of his emotions. His feelings for Kagome had grown in the past few months, 'I...love her.'

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

When Kagome arrived in her assigned room, she laid down on her bed and stared at the ceiling. Her mind was reeling on the kiss that she had just shared with J`onn.

They have kissed a lot before but the one they just shared was definitely the most passionate. 'It rivals the first time he kissed me and opened his mind to me.' She raised her fingers to her lips brushing them lightly with the tips of her fingers and smiled.

The smile stayed on her face as she turned to her side and closed her eyes.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

It was about a half hour later when J`onn noticed a breach in security.

He looked at the monitor to see Grundy, Star Sapphire, and the Shade entering the hanger.

"Kagome," he said awaking her from her slumber, "We have intruders." "I'm on my way," she informed him as she put her mask on.

J'onn sounded the alarms to inform the team to come back to Watchtower, before he flew to the location of the villains.

When he reached the hanger he was then met with darkness and then received a throbbing pain in the back of his head.

Kagome finally arrived at the hanger to see J`onn unconscious. She ran to his side immediately not paying attention to her surroundings. "J`onn," she said with worry before receiving a blow by a pink light knocking her out cold.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

Earth

"Still no word from J`onn?" asked Wonder Woman in concern.

"Not since he sounded the alarm," answered Superman just as worried.

"What about Miko?" asked Flash.

Superman shook his head, "She's not responding either."

"Something must be wrong up there," said a troubled Hawkgirl.

"Then let's go," said Green Lantern as he ran into the Javelin.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

Watchtower

The Javelin landed in the hanger, the first thing that the League saw when they exited was their two team mates unconscious.

"J`onn. Miko," Flash yelled as he ran over to observe the Martian and young miko.

Kagome groaned as she awoke, "Iita," she said sitting up holding a sore spot on the back of her head.

"Hey Miko, what happened?" asked a concerned Hawkgirl.

Kagome tried to remember, "I…I don't know. J`onn said that there was an intruder and I came down to investigate. I saw him on the ground…then I guess I got hit." Kagome turned to see J`onn still unconscious on the ground.

She scooted to his side and summoned her healing powers to her hand, "J`onn wake up," she told him in his mind as she healed the back of his head.

J`onn winced, the blow to his head bruised his telepathic powers.

Everyone surrounded the Martian as he slowly sat up.

"You okay?" asked Green Lantern.

J`onn nodded.

"What happened?" asked Superman. "Miko said there were intruders."

It took J`onn a moment to recall the events, "It was Star Saphire, Grundy, and The Shade," he said before groaning.

"Let's get him to the medical bay," said Superman.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

Kagome sat on the side of J`onn's medical bed.

"So the Bat's just left to find them alone," said Flash. Kagome nodded. "Why did you let him go?"

"His pride was wounded and he wanted to reclaim it," she answered. "Even if we tried to stop him, he still would of left."

"He hasn't checked in for a while," Green Lantern stated. "Maybe we should try tracking the Batwing."

"I seriously doubt we can do that," Hawkgirl said guessing Batman wouldn't make his Batwing easy to find.

"What about the intruders?" questioned Kagome, "They wouldn't just come up here to knock me and J`onn out, then leave."

Suddenly the phone, which resided in the room, rang.

"Maybe that's Batman," said Wonder Woman as she picked up the phone. "Hello…I beg your pardon," she said the last part confused before a look of horror took over her face. "WHERE?...HELLO?"

"What's wrong?" asked Superman.

"It wasn't Batman. Someone just said that there is a bomb up here," said Wonder Woman in a panic.

Everyone's eyes widened.

"Everyone spread out," Superman ordered.

The League members ran all over the watch tower in search of the device. Kagome searched the Green House and a few rooms before Green Lantern said he might have found a trail.

"FLASH," Green Lantern yelled for the speedster, once he found the bomb, to come to his location on the hanger.

"I got it," Flash yelled as he grabbed the bomb and ran to the hanger door. When Superman arrived and opened the hanger door, allowing Flash to throw the bomb out into space moments before it exploded.

The force of the blast made the Watchtower shake.

J`onn awoke from the sensation.

"It's okay," Kagome reassured him as she entered the room. "The intruders left a bomb but we found it before it went off."

J`onn sighed with relief.

"How's your head?" she asked.

"Better, thanks to you," he said before he tried to get up.

"Whoa, you're not getting up," she urged him to lay back down. "Even with my healing powers, head injuries shouldn't be taken lightly."

"But we need to," J`onn began to say.

"Please...for me," she urged using the same words he said earlier.

J`onn couldn't deny her request either and did as she said.

The others came into the medical bay to regroup.

"That was too close," said Flash a little out of breath from the unwanted excitement.

"How could they have gotten up here?" asked Wonder Woman.

"Only one way," said Green Lantern, "Batman's transmitter."

Kagome gasped, "Oh no, they have him."

J`onn turned to her, "Kagome we don't know that," he began to say before he was suddenly interrupted.

"J`onn? Can you hear me?" Batman's voice echoed in J`onn's mind.

"I know where Batman is," J'onn told the others as he suddenly stood up.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

Bad Guys Hide Out

"He's in there," J`onn pointed to an abandoned building called Metropolis Picture Store. "So are the others."

They landed the Javelin on a roof nearby to scout the building.

"They might try to use him as bait," Green Lantern offered his opinion.

"Not if I can help it," J`onn phased through the ground.

"J`onn don't," Kagome begged but he was already gone, "Damn it."

"Let's follow him," Hawkgirl said readying her mace.

"No," said Superman. "Give him a few minutes."

Kagome looked at the building, "J'onn, did you find him?" Kagome asked a minute later.

J`onn didn't answer for a moment, "Yes I've AGHHH,"

Kagome yelled out grabbing her head in pain. The others looked at her with worry, "J`onn is in trouble."

"Now we do it my way," said Hawkgirl as she took off mace ready to burst through the wall.

Wonder Woman grabbed Kagome around her waist and flew her to the building.

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

The battle began with Star Sapphire attacking the Flash. He was hit dead on and flew and hit Hawkgirl to the ground with him.

Wonder Woman dropped Kagome to the ground, and the young miko landed gracefully and shot her arrow at the group of villains.

They all ducked from the sacred arrow, except for Grundy who caught the arrow, which burned his hand in the process. Superman then rammed the undead man into the wall.

Kagome drew her katana and ran towards The Shade. He blocked her attack with his cane only to have it snapped in half by her sword, she then held it to the man's throat.

The Shade gulped, "Okay I give up," he said raising his hands.

Kagome drew back her sword, sheathing it. The Shade sighed in relief before Kagome kneed him in the gut making him keel over. 'That was for hurting my boyfriend, you jackass.'

Meanwhile, the other's fought against the other super villains.

Until Lex Luthor made his grand entrance with a new body suite and attacked Superman. The suit was infused with Kryptonite, which caused the man of steel to wither in pain.

The others were about to save him until an unlikely person stepped in to do the task.

The Ultra-Humanite, he stabbed Luthor with some type of tool that electrocuted the newly suited Luthor.

Once Luthor collapsed, Humanite tuned to the League and dropped the weapon, "I surrender."

&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&%&% &%&%&

The villains were all rounded up and ready to be sent off to the authorities.

Both Batman and J`onn met up with the rest of the League and made their way to the Javelin.

Kagome looked over annoyed at Batman, once he was done speaking with Ultra-Humanite, "Didn't I say to 'be careful'?"

Batman only smirked at her, "Oh, I was. You think I didn't want to get captured."

Kagome shook her head back and forth. Of course, Batman had the whole thing planned, "Could you at least give a little warning next time?"

Batman didn't respond.

'I'll take that as a no,' She thought to herself before she turned to look at J`onn, "That was a stupid stunt you pulled."

J`onn nodded, "You are right, I apologize."

Kagome couldn't help but pout. She couldn't fight with J`onn because he never really got angry. "Okay that's not fair," J`onn rose his brow at her. "How am I supposed to stay mad at you when you agree with me?"

J`onn smiled at her disappointment, then grabbed her hand and kissed her knuckles.

"Aww, how sweet," Flash said running up behind the couple and wrapping both arms around their shoulders. "You two are so cute when you're all lovey dovey."

"Shut up," Kagome said embarrassed and elbowed the speedster on his side.

Elsewhere

"So, it seems my copy has made quite a name for herself," Kikyo said as she read a news article on the Justice League. Even with that mask, Kikyo recognized the young miko and her powers instantly.

Inuyasha went up behind her and started to rub her shoulders, "I'm tired of waiting," he said annoyed, "Let's just attack her now."

Kikyo moaned at the attention her lover was giving her she ran her hand down the hanyou's face. "Not just yet Koi," she purred, "There is still a few things we need before we make our move."

Inuyasha gave a frustrated sigh.

Kikyo gave a seductive chuckle, "I can think of a few ways to occupy our time," she said before giving him a passionate kiss.

You know what Batman's special power is…he's the God damn Batman. Don't forget to review folks, I like to hear your thoughts. Good, bad, or just plane random. Next time: A Sorceress, A Demon, A Betrayal, Oh My.
