A/N: Sorry about the mistakes I did on the second chapter.
RecklessBaka: I wanted to thank you for pointing out those critical errors I made. When I saw the list of the New 52 I thought they were the same Justice League but with a different start and personalities. I've compared Flash from Justice League (animation) and the Justice League New 52 (Comics) it seems like they did change Flash. Wally was the one used in the TV Series and to the older comics and he was the comical one. He was fun. Thanks for that! Kudos, Baka-kun! About Green Lantern, I knew some facts about the old Lantern, the dark-skin one. Hal however is different; he's been a challenge for me to write so far, especially that I know nothing about his personality.
Eddyonline: No, I don't think much about Kara being an OC since her type is from the TV series Supergirl (The attitude, at least. Tough on the outside, but soft inside) She's quite tough to write I'll be honest. I've never read a single comics all about her, but I do watch the Supergirl series and the Justice League animation (though rarely seen there) So, Supergirl exist, but she has already joined the League
umbra proeliator: Thanks. I do know the difference between the planet and the substance. Maybe it's just some mistake on my writing, I'll check it out!
- For Barry to do something like that is just a set up for Kara and Karen really. Now that I know he's not Wally he'll be less... Wally. LOL!
Chapter 3: Search for that mask!
The past three days have been hectic for the Justice League. Victor is the greatest ally they have when it comes to computer stuffs. She admits it that even Starr Industries needs someone like him. She's already a billionaire, but nowhere near Bruce Wayne. Yeah, she's not in it for the money, but she can buy anything she want so that's a perk. Plus, being an orphan herself she understands the difficulty of being one, at least she has super powers to help herself unlike those children who are more unfortunate.
Victor groaned, "There's nothing about this guy!" he yelled, grabbing the attention of those who are near him. Batman and Superman was beside Victor all the time, but she occasionally shows up every few hours.
Clark stroke his chin, "Nothing at all, Victor?" he asked, watching every window that pops up on that large screen. She again marveled at Wayne's technological advancement, not to mention that he is super rich as well.
Victor's arm was connected to the computer like a power chord. He has been one with the computer trying to find the man who saved him. She can understand he's a threat or something to them, but not for her. She felt respect and admiration for the guy. Yet, Batman managed to convince everyone he is a problem, or might be. The Clark back home was a little different than here, but she learned it first-hand how different these two dimensions were. While both of the Clark she knew were polite and gentle to many things, the one back home shines brightly than the one in here. Then again, the Clark back home is… was already forty plus.
"What about the mercenary contracts?" that's been the most tiring thing they've done, at least that's what Kara said. She is still in bed rest from all that Kryptonite injected into her body. The infection is declining, but the rate is so sluggish. "There has got to be something, right?" She could feel Batman's nerve about being in the dark.
She kind of understood where Batman is right now. For a person who's always in the dark, looking for advantage and all sorts of information, it is annoying not to find just a single clue about this man. Well, it's more frustrating since he has been given the title of World's Greatest Detective. She chuckled, causing Batman to glare at her.
Did he just read her mind? No, no, that's impossible, right? Karen thought.
Everyone in the League is helping in search for this mysterious man, but they still have to do their duties to the world which was even more tiring. Not to mention she too is tired from all the sitting and resting she's doing. Add it up by that jerk who hasn't even texted her since she got mad at him! Yeah, that was a bitchy move, but not calling or texting? Wait; did she think she wanted him to call her? Yeah- No! Well, she does want to hear his voice. It's bugging her ever since she was rescued by that man. Because that voice was just too familiar.
Hey, I'm really sorry about what happened these last few days. I never meant to yell at you. I just had a bad day is all. She messaged him. There are a lot of reasons why he wouldn't reply, but she only feared one. You're not still mad at me, are you? The words she used were different, but it all had the same meaning.
Somebody knocked on her door. It's definitely not Kara, she's patrolling her city and is on duty for tonight. So, who could be at her door at- she looked at her clock- one in the morning? "Come in" she said.
Diana.
"How are you doing, Karen?" she asked, though that question has been answered for a hundredth time. Everyone in the League, even though they are small, have visited her. And they all asked the same question each time they visit. She's fed up hearing and answering that same question. Diana smiled "No, you're okay now. Just a little more rest to be sure, okay?" she nodded, well, that was a first.
"I don't mean to be rude, Wonder Woman, but why are you here? It's one in the morning." She said the company is always welcomed to her, though it is a sudden change of ambiance; she liked talking to someone rather than staring at the television for hours. The shows right now suck, but at least one network is showing one of her favorite movies.
She softly laughed, sitting on the chair besides Karen. "I'm just checking how you're doing."
She checked her phone; it has been thirty minutes since she last sent him a message. Though something clicked, the name registered on his phone isn't his name. Who in their right mind would name their son Kyuubi? She shook her head. It must be foreign, she thought. Or maybe he just gave her a random name?
-Line Break-
"How are you faring with this world, Diana?" She's taken aback, not many questions how she's doing here on Earth. For years she has trained in the arts of war, but never really knew what the outside world looks like. They've heard stories, but she was never allowed to step towards Man's World back then. They told her men were like poison, corrupting everything in their path, but that wasn't true.
She inhaled deeply "I still have a lot to learn on this world" That's the truth. When she arrived here five years ago she was naïve and everything else was both excitement and danger. She had been mostly curios at her friend Steve Trevor. He was a soldier then, now his job is to ensure the Congress could still trust the Justice League. She hates it when she sees him tired from his work, but he keeps saying the same excuse 'it has to be done'. "Especially, about love." She was fascinated with Steve a few years ago, mainly because he is the first man she ever met. When he confessed his feelings for her… she did not know what to do back then. Eventually, she told him the truth. She has no feelings for him, only friendship.
Karen chuckled. Diana could see that she misses her home, but unlike her, she could return to Themyscira anytime she wants."Love, huh." Karen said, her voice shaking for a little bit. "What about you, Diana, have you found someone to be with?" Karen asked, she did not expect that question.
"I don't know." She replied honestly. Sure, she is still a woman deep down, but through meditation and sparring lets out all of her pent up stress. Of course, that includes her curios womanhood. "I liked a few men, but none of them are someone who I want to be with." True, she found Steve to be attractive, that guy from Mission Impossible film, the model she found on her magazine, and even a teammate of their own. "I read books about romance and it makes us see how exciting it could be, but it's a double edged sword." Karen nodded; they both understood the reality of love. "What about you?"
Karen choked for a moment "I've had my shares of love back home." Diana nodded, pressing Power Girl for more information. She's curios, but she can't ask any of the men in their team. And asking Steve would definitely worsen their current relationship as friends. Besides, Karen doesn't seem like the girl who would have no experience when it comes to love. But she could feel that she's still unsullied. "I've never been hurt the way they show on T.V. but even those normal breakups hurts a lot." She finished. Her eyes widened for a moment, Diana didn't like what's coming next. "What about you? You've been here long like me. Is there any man who got your attention? I mean a guy who makes your heart skips?" Yes, she just had to clarify it even more.
She cleared her throat, she can't lie. It's not that she can't she just wouldn't, that would go against what she and her lasso stands for. "There is someone and it's very recent." Karen gave a wide smiled and she can't help herself but return it. She have never found sharing things as private as this to be… fun. Then again, years ago it's mostly the male population who has dominated the League.
"Well? Aren't you going to tell me?" She could see the excitement in Karen's eyes. No, Karen wasn't the only one excited about it, just spilling her own secret to a teammate felt so… thrilling. "Is it Clark?" she wouldn't blame Karen for thinking that. The media alone speculates about her and Superman's relationship, but she could feel nothing but respect only for him.
"Remember when I told you I read a lot of books?" she nodded, of course she will, that was just a few minutes ago. "No offense but I don't like Kal-El." Karen tilted her head, again every woman out there would do almost anything just to be carried into the sky by Superman. Yes, Clark is attractive, smart, kind, caring, compassionate, and so many more, but for Diana he was way too perfect. "He shines too much." She added. It's like a clichéd movie where she is the princess- she literally is- and Clark is her knight in shining armor who would defeat the evil wizard or dragon and save her from her prison tower. "
Karen laughed "So, you like going to the Dark Side, huh? Is it Batman?" Bruce Wayne was by far on the same level as Clark when it comes to physical attraction. However, Bruce was more charming than Clark is.
She gave a small laugh "No. It's not Bruce, Karen." Now Karen was truly thinking deeply. But her blonde friend should never go for Aquaman. That man was already married once to Mera, now he's about to marry some else, that would be simply wrong if Karen thought of it that way.
"Can't I have a clue?"
Diana gave a mischievous smile on her face. This guy whom she have came to respect in these past few days is a mystery. A total mystery. And every single time she thinks about him, it makes her feel excited. Does she love him? No. But she definitely has feelings for him that surpasses attraction. The fact that this has never happened before made her heart skip, it's exciting, and every hair in her body would rise up whenever they talk about what clue they have from him. And the fact that even the Batman can't get a single clue on him makes her feel more excited. Now, the only thing she wants more is for her to single handedly capture his identity. Of course, this was her deep dark secret, and no one must know about this strange behavior of hers. "He's wearing a mask." Was all Diana said.
"What? That's not a clue! There are so many men in the world that's a hero and wears a mask. That's not a clue, Diana." Karen complained like a child, who knew Kryptonian women could act like this. It's fun. "Wait a minute." Diana almost swallowed the stagnant air in her throat. "It's okay to tell me if you don't go that way." She said.
Huh? "What?" Okay, things took to a turn she did not understand. "What is that way?"
Karen smirked "You know, not liking the opposite, only the same" Karen wiggled her eyebrows up and down.
Oh.
"No! I don't go that way!" Karen burst out from laughter as she felt her face heating up, finally realizing what Karen meant. "In Themyscira we usually wore nothing, I am used to seeing naked bodies, but I am not attracted to my own gender."
"Whoa! Slow down, Princess, you don't have to make it weird, you know."
She smirked, everyone is comfortable when she talks about Themyscira.
"So, when can you go out?" She asked, she has to spend time with her. Karen is fun to be with rather than those well-suited people inside the Embassy or some other lavish parties and occasions.
"Dr. Leslie will give me one final check-up and I'm good to go."
-Line Break-
"What if they come back for me?" Those assassins are crafty. If he didn't looked at her that evening she would have been a goner. The poison they used has a very rare antidote, but they were easy to find, at least for him. He didn't know why, but he felt that if he handed Dr. Pamela back to the authorities then she wouldn't have survived the night.
They are going to be pissed that he has actually kidnapped a criminal. Not to mention she's the world's most notorious eco-terrorist. "Yes, they will." Even if he sends her to Alcatraz Island as planned, she's not going to live there for long, not without her plants. Even at this very moment she's shaking, without her beloved plants, she is as vulnerable as a woman walking in the dark streets of Gotham. "Don't worry. I will protect you, so get some rest." No way is he going to let her see his face, but being inside this small abandoned building is kind of hot. He let his hood go; there are so many blonde people in this world that she wouldn't know who's who.
"Wh-where are you going?" He hates to leave an eye on her, but with the temperature going high (since he's wearing a full-sized cloak, preventing any wind to touch his skin) he needs some fresh clean air. "D-D-Don't leave me!"
"Do not worry. I have sentries all over the place." By sentries, he meant his shadow clones that are hiding in every part of the building. "I'll be back." He's going to buy some normal clothes for the two of them, she tried to follow him. Seeing a criminal with a reputation like hers go down like this- he just feels sorry for her. "I promise you. No harm will come to you while I'm alive, okay?" she nodded, tears were in her eyes. What could she have done to attract such a dangerous organization, he thought.
Once outside, he's started to walk to the nearest clothe shop, if they are still open. Well, it's
not that late and he could use a meal. Maybe ramen or something? Either way, his stomach is going to accept whatever he eats. "I wonder what she eats?" the thought didn't cane until now. What could a girl like Pamela be eating? Plants? Does that make him a cannibal or a vegetarian? It's confusing, but it should be fun seeing her eat.
He almost forgot, he's still wearing his full armor, not to mention his hair is flowing out. "Crap!" he muttered, quickly covering it with his hood. Great, I only have fifty bucks to spend on both food and clothing. He could go back home, but that's going to take a lot of time. Pamela might go insane if she stayed alone in that abandoned building for a long time. He broke his own rules because he's too distracted by what Karen said to him.
"What the!" the storeowner yelled, seeing clothes of her missing, but with money attached to their hanger.
Choosing not to delay any longer, he bought (the same way he did in the clothe store) two rice box from that Chinese stand. He wanted some ramen, something hot because the wind outside is freezing, but whenever he's alone with Ivy he felt pretty heated. He still has to check on that wound, the poison has been extinguished, but the wound is still fresh.
"Do you think I've forgotten what you did to me?!" a female voice cried, he instantly alarmed himself. Somebody is up there with the doctor and she was able to defeat his clones? It doesn't matter if you're the Batman or not, his clones are top fighters and cannot be killed easily. Thinking that the female up there might have some kind of powers, he prepared himself.
He knew the place; he had stayed here for a day now. He sneaked behind the woman and readied himself for his knock-out blow. Unfortunately, the woman was able to spin around and launched a kick. He ducked, grabbing a kunai to go for her vital limbs. Yes, rendering her immobile is the best course of action. The woman raised her targeted leg and pulled a retractable baton.
"You're not bad." The blonde woman smirked; if anything she seemed harmless, especially with her outfit. She looked like a model or something, her outfit hugging her body too much. He shook his head; this is not a good moment to think about that. So far this woman is better than Slade at close quarter combat.
They both disarmed themselves, now continuing this with their fist.
-Line Break-
She had to admit that this guy is really good. Each movement are not wasted, but she is starting to have a hard time deflecting and attacking, but the man in front of her seems like he's just testing her. "You're not bad." She commented, even words are weapons as well. One wrong move from him and she'll take full advantage of it.
He managed to disarm her and she was just about to unleash the true color of his electric baton. Tch. She didn't like where this is going, but if worse comes to worse she'll use her Canary Cry. "Leave." He said, maintaining his pace of attack.
So, he's still a youngling, huh? She thought. His voice wasn't deep like Superman's or any other heroes out there, his was definitely of a man, only younger. Oh, she knew how to predict their age when she hears their voices. "I can't. She owns me something." She replied, smiling as she's starting to sweat. This is turning into a great match!
"She is wounded. She will pay later." He said.
She rolled her eyes; he is trying to change his voice into someone else's. He should stick with his voice, it's cute. An idea forms in her head "Hey, stop trying to change your voice." She let it sinks in with him for a moment, and then she saw her chance. She locked her body with his and whispered "Yours is cute."
Ah-ha! He showed an opening and in an instant she took advantage of it. Landing a solid blow on his stomach. He growled in pain, he looked above and she gave him a smug look. Yep, this guy is definitely a-
*Sniff
"What's that smell?" she looked around, her body turning hot and hotter. Her skin is now soaking from the sweat caused by her skin-tight black outfit. She panted. What the fuck is going on?! She thought.
Her eyes focused on him, still trying to recover from that kick she gave to him. Aww… she shouldn't have done that. She approached him, slowly, unzipping her skin tight black suit. She tried shaking her head, this is wrong yet it feels so right.
He's shaking his head, poor guy, I want to help him, she thought. Slowly kneeling to be on his current height, he stopped moving. Even though he is wearing that mask, she could see his eyes resembling sapphires, just like hers only deeper. She leisurely removes his mask; she bit her lip, hoping he wouldn't jerk. She needed to see his face, even a glimpse of it. She didn't know why, but she doesn't care anymore.
"Wait." He said, softly panting. His true voice is somewhat muffled by the mask. "We… shouldn't-" She didn't need to hear this. She inserted her index finger inside his mouth; warm, just like she wanted it. She played with his tongue for a moment, as he sucks the blood out of her finger. Once she removed it, it made a slurping sound that made her even hotter.
"But we want to, right?" he nodded, slowly looking back at her again.
God he is beautiful, Spiky blonde hair, eyes matching the colors of the sky. And that innocent look on his face showed that he was still untouched. Perfect. The night is young, and she could teach him so many 'techniques' and he sure doesn't look like one who would get tired so easily. Anyone who is on par with her doesn't run out of energy easily. Yes, perfect is the word she's looking for, he was perfect for her, and he for her. Yes, she's doesn't know what's going on, but she doesn't care about a single thing anymore, just the man in front of her.
"I haven't- done it yet…" he whispered, and her smile only grew wider and naughty.
He was Indian sitting and she plans to take all the benefit she can get. She wrapped her arms around his neck, her legs around his waist, and her lips inches from his. She could smell his breath; every time his breath hit her raw skin she wanted him even more. She could feel something beneath her scorching, and she's not sure if it's her or his.
"Don't worry. I'll take care of you"
She definitely will.
Chapter End!
Where did Poison Ivy go? And what the hell is going on with Black Canary? Naruto seems like he's in the same train with Dinah. Hmm… Still wondering where Poison Ivy did go…
Hey, if you think it's fast to that part, it's definitely not. Don't blame me, blame Poison Ivy. If you like the chapter then blame it on me, not Ivy. I'm the one who wrote it after all. LOL!
