Chapter 6: Questions

Soraya continued to lay in the bed she was in thinking about everything that had happened, throughout most of her life she had always been alone she never worked with people but as the years passed she eventual started working with people to earn a living and also learn new techniques and to use her powers. She remembered her teacher once saying that though the world is full of humans who would probably destroy themselves with their hate and wars in the end those who show compassion and mercy will find themselves the last standing after the world had changed, she never understood what he meant and even after he died it still didn't make sense. "I wonder what Fury would make out of this place" she thought as she remembered Fury and all his little teams that worked under S.H.E.I.L.D, he'd probably keep them a secret and probably control all the heroes from doing something the government didn't like.

Soraya laughed as she thought that but she also remembered everyone else that Fury used Spiderman, Wolverine, Blade, Captain America and that annoying tin can Iron Man they were all heroes or people who merely helped keep the peace, so them joining together would be pointless since all of them had different opinions about how to protect the world, unlike this Justice League who joined together without thinking about the consequences of it. "Still I guess if I want to get back I'll need their help, but I won't allow them to screw with me not like Fury does every time he calls in a favor" Soraya thought as she got out of the bed, the woman hand removed it earlier to allow her to freely move throughout the room but there wasn't much to see since she woke up. Soraya decide to have a shower to clean up before anyone decided to question her later as she knew it would happen since the league had her here, as she stood in the shower she leaned against the wall so the water would wash away the soap and the shampoo, she saw that her hair had a red tint in it as it went down the drain, Soraya remembered draining two people when she lost control back at the lab she was held in, she closed her eyes and breathed in trying to push the thought away but it still lingered.

As Soraya put her clothes on she could feel someone outside, she felt it was 2 males, well one felt like a male the other she wasn't sure so she walked out of the shower and saw both men one of them she'd met before the other she hadn't met. The man she knew wore the same outfit but she could tell the damage she done to it wasn't there so it was a new suit but same design. The other one was the same green colour as the girl she met in her mind, but he was taller and had red eyes "Guess he's a Martian too" she thought as she looked at both men. Soraya knew that these men were going to interrogate her so she waited to see which one would talk first, "I guess you know why we're here" the man in black said "I guess, otherwise you wouldn't be here" Soraya said back crossing her arms. The man eyes intensified showing he wasn't the sort of man you cross when questioned "We are only here to get to know you and to find out what brought you here as well as the experiments that were performed on you" the Martian said, Soraya sighed "Ok, ask your questions but make no mistake I'll only answer them if I can" Soraya said as she leaned against the wall "That is fine my name is John J'ohh's, this is Batman" The Martian indicated to his partner.

"My name is Soraya" both men seemed surprised by the name Soraya had known that her name meant "Star" in Arabic terms, Batman asked the next question "We would like to know how you got into our world, if you can remember how it happened" Soraya didn't like the man much he was too stiff "He's like Blade in a bad mode and I hate it when he's like that" Soraya thought, Soraya answered Batman's question on how she was pulled in by the machine how she ended up in the building were the kids were fighting and when the Martian girl had entered her mind and sent her packing when she found her there. "May we ask why you attack Miss Martian" Batman asked "That should be simply, I don't like people who enter my mind even if their invited so I taught that girl the difference between someone who's mind doesn't like being look at and those that do" she said looking angry. Further question asked what she did after escaping from the team and what happened in metropolis, the questions were simple at best but Soraya couldn't help but feel they were holding back on question about her abilities or the part of her she knew they knew about.

"That all the question were have, for now you'll stay here in the cave until the league determines how to get you home" as both men started to leave Soraya suddenly remembered something, she looked at the Martian and remembered when she tried gaining control of her mind he'd been there. Soraya's anger got to her and she slammed the Martian against the wall "You, You were inside my mind when I was trying to get control of my body, what did you see" Soraya eyes' had changed to the eyes of a vampire as her anger grew and push the Martian even tighter into the wall. The Batman tried stopping her but Soraya already had him pinned "Tell me" Soraya shouted "I only saw the hate you have for what you are and why you don't trust humans that is all I saw, I swear" the Martians thought went through her head. Soraya's let go of both men and moved back against the wall and hugged her knees to hide her face, "I am sorry, but your powers had nearly destroyed the city and the only way we could stop you was for me to enter your mind and try to gain control before your powers destroyed everything but I never thought I would see such hate or the horrors of what your world has done" the Martian said as he saw the girl continue to avoid their gaze "So does everyone know" She asked "No, only the team and us now what you are, we want to be sure that you were aware of the situation before telling the league though I didn't think you would be this agitated about it" Batman said "I'm not, but most people who have heard of my kind always place us under the dreg of the vampire world, but I refuse to be the monsters they are" Soraya said clenching her hands so hard her nails pierced her skin and began to bleed.

"Still you are as you would say a daywalker so you possess abilities that most vampires don't have in the day, but your control over your powers can became destructive when you lose control, have you ever lost control like this before?" Batman asked, Soraya looked up at Batman and saw he was being patient "Once, back when I was younger then this" Soraya said as she remembered the destruction she cause back then "How long exactly?" Soraya knew why Batman asked "When I was 22 years old, so if you're wondering about my age I'm 63 years old so don't treat me like a kid" Soraya looked down at the floor remembering the first time she met Blade and what he thought of someone who was older then him but still looked like a 20 year old. "Very well, for now you can move freely around the cave until we determine what to do" Batman said as he took one last look at the girl and wondered just how much destruction and chaos she had seen throughout her life.

Soraya heard the door close but she remained in the same position as she tried to keep herself together "Damn it, it just like before why does it always have to end up with me nearly losing it and killing someone" Soraya had learned many different forms of control through the years but found no matter how much control she had her inner demon always wanted to cause destruction and cause pain to other around her "Looks like I'm going to have to find a way to control my powers or this monster will take over" She thought as she decided to go back to bed and sleep on it but she knew this wasn't going to be an easy sleep.

Watchtower

Most of the league members had arrived at the watchtower and had begun talking amongst themselves while they waited for Batman and Martian Manhunter return, Superman and Wonder Women had remained quite while the other were talking they knew what most were talking about. After the incident in Fawcett city the league had seen the full extent of what the girl had destroyed, half the cities building had been reduced to rubble, almost every citizen had been reported either seriously injured or found in the intensive wards in every hospital.

When Black Canary arrived and reported that the girl was awake Batman asked Superman to alert the league to come to the tower to discuss his findings and what he had discussed with the girl, John had gone along encase the girl didn't take kindly to being questioned but both league members were more concerned that the girl may run off before they got there but Canary had said the girl wasn't in any position to leave since she had just woken up. After most of the league had arrived some were already discussing what to do about the girl, most were thinking about keeping her locked up till they got the machine that brought her was repaired and they could send her back others thought it would be better to get to know the girl and maybe learn more about her abilities before judging her on what she could do.

Soon enough Batman and John had returned and both looked like they'd taken a beating John mostly, "What happened?" Superman asked as Batman and John approached them, "Nothing, let get on with the meeting" Batman replied as he and John passed them and went to sit at the league table. Everyone sat in their respective places but some were still staring at both leaguers and wondered what the girl had done, as the last members sat Superman started the meeting "We all know why were gathered here, though these last few weeks have been troublesome in keeping the peace we now must look to a possible solution to why these problems arose, we must also be unbiased in our decisions and be clear on what we do for it will affect all of us as well as the world" Superman finished and sat down and listened as Batman brought up a screen that showed the machine that the light had created to open up a rip that would allow them to travel to other worlds.

"Since obtaining this machine we can determined that the lights plan was to use it to travel to other world to avoid capture and to possible obtain goods that would otherwise remain under the radar since they weren't purchased in ours, this is the likeliest possibility of the machine though the theory to travel is impossible the machine energy levels showed that the machine did in fact open a rip and allowed possible travel but the power overloaded when the machine took damage during the teams fight" Batman continued to further explain his findings on the machine and how it used a particular energy source that the league thought wasn't possible since no known scientist couldn't find a way to use it without endangering lives so this made the machine the first to take the energy and could open rips in time and space to other worlds.

After completing his report on the machine most of the league were discussing how the light could build such technology and why they wanted to use it in the first place, "If the machine could do all that how was it possible that it brought that girl into our world" Captain Marvel asked the rest of the league looked at Batman waiting for a possible answer to the question "After talking to the girl she explained at the same time the machine in her world was overloading at the same time as ours" Batman said the league was surprised by this piece of information so it wasn't just the light who was building this machine but in the girls world as well "Does that mean more will come" Hal Jordan asked "No, according to the girl as soon as she was pulled in the machine it was destroyed so it doesn't seem possible that anyone from her world will come" Batman replied back.

"Did the girl beat you up when you questioned her" Flash asked the league looked at both Batman and John both looked at each other and realized they would have to discuss what happened "As you all know the result of the machine brought this girl into our world" Batman brought up an image of the girl, "The girls name is Soraya and though she physically looks 20 years old her actual age is 63 years" the league was more surprised by this information as they looked at the girls image her face showed she was in her 20's but to be actually 63 years old that was impossible. "But there's no way she can be 63" Hawkgirl said "That would be true if she was human but I'm afraid that isn't true either" John said looking serious the other wondered what he meant "The girl is half human, half Vampire" Batman said the league looked shocked at what both John and Batman had revealed the girl was part vampire, was that why she had those powers.

Batman pulled up a report on the girl's physical state during which she was being treated, they took blood samples to examine along with x rays and mental scans, "As you can see the girls physical body shows signs of fast regenerative capability's along with physical strength being 10 times more powerful than the average human, blood test also prove that the girl vampiric state allows any blood she drinks to enhances her body to combat people as well as doubling her strength to higher capabilities" the medical report showed more evidence of the girls abilities as well as Batman's encounter with her at the Gotham Warehouse "So this explains how she was able to hold off on you and Robin back in Gotham" Green Arrow said "No, when fighting her she hadn't drank any blood, I believe she doesn't drink blood at all" Batman said as he remembered how she was able to fight him on equal footing and still was able to push him and Robin back without breaking a sweat.

"If she doesn't drink blood, then how is it that she's strong enough to take most of the league on and almost render an entire city to rubble" Flash asked, Batman knew this part of the report would not sit well with the league since he knew how the girl had done before she encountered the league. "After searching the underground labs several bodies were found, most looked like they had been crushed and torn apart which I believe was the girl doing after she had drank 2 scientist blood in the lab she was held in, it more than likely the light had reframed from feeding her and her instincts took over which resulted in the death of 10 people and the near destruction of Fawcett City" the league members started arguing amongst themselves about what they had learned batman knew the girl had no choice her instincts had taken control resulted in killing people but he remembered the look in her eyes when he questioned her she wasn't the type to kill for blood nor for any meaningless reason so what they was dealing with was a half breed who had some control over her vampiric side but was capable of great destruction if push beyond her limits.

"How can we be sure she won't lose control again and kill the team" Green Arrow argued looking concerned for the team's wellbeing, "We can't just decide to keep her isolated that might cause further problems with her" Black Canary said back the rest of the league were arguing about possible threats like the girl killing people or her being a threat to national security but Batman just sat in silence as the league continued arguing. The arguing had lasted for a few more minutes when Dr Fate spoke drawing everyone's attention "Enough, you all believe that this girl is a threat because she is part of the supernatural world you underestimate the more possible threat she presents" Fate said sounding serious, the league began sitting back in their seats still looking at Dr Fate as they waited to hear this possible threat he mentioned "Though I've yet to evaluate the girl's powers, the balance between order and chaos has become unbalanced it is possible that the girls powers may cause the destruction of the balance or worse" Dr Fates was right the near destruction of Fawcett City was proof enough that the girls powers maybe more dangerous than they first thought but still Batman needed to know for sure if the girl was a threat before doing anything to stop another possible scenario happening again.

"So what we going to do with her?" John Stewart asked looking at the others, "For now we need to test the girls strength, skills and her abilities before we can determine what to do, as for the machine Star Labs are doing their best to find a way to make it work so we can send the girl back if we can" Batman said to the league knowing this was the only way to keep them calm. After the meeting was finished and some of the other leaguers had left Batman and J'onn stayed seated while Arrow, Fate, Superman and Hal Jordan were the only ones left "You going to tell us now why the girl attack you" Hal Jordan asked, Batman knew he had diverted the question earlier so now was the best time to tell "After questioning her she grabbed J'onn and demanded to know what he saw when he entered her mind" Batman said the other looked at J'onn "She remembered seeing me and was conceded I may have seen memories that were hidden for a reason so I told her I only saw what I had seen at the time to calm her down" J'onn said the others didn't seem convinced "Understand, her mind wasn't easy to read, part of her mind shows a lifetime of battles and wars for the humans and many time in which she has slain vampires for their acts of chaos and destruction they have brought" J'onn looked at the others showing he was telling the truth.

"Why would she hunt vampires, aren't they her kind as well as the humans" Arrow asked looking confused "No, she believe in their complete inhalation from the earth but she holds no love for humans as well" J'onn said the conversation between the leaguers lasted for 5 hours till they came to a conclusion to what to do next "So were all agreed on how will test her?" Batman asked and they all nodded in agreement "Then will start as soon as possible" as the rest of the league left Batman began working out the tests he would use on the girl to see what she was capable of and how strong she really was.

New York City

Doc Conner's latest reports were all the same the machine was only partially fixed but they still couldn't get it to work without the original blueprints, Fury wasn't happy about the whole thing especially when it concerned Soraya, he'd gone over the files S.H.I.E.L.D had on her and most weren't pretty he'd seen what the government had used her for and what they done to her during both the Cold war and the Vietnam war. He knew she never held the American government in high esteem but the years they had taken from her had left its mark and she never trusted Fury or any agent of the government fully and always went off and did what she wanted even cause frailer in the mission if she felt like it. As Fury looked over the report and files over his desk Coulson entered holding a new report "Director, Spiderman's team has managed to find Doc Oc hideout and are about to engage, if their successful in capturing him we may be able to bring Soraya back before anything bad happens in whatever world she in" Coulson said but saw Fury was only partly hearing him "Tell me Coulson, have you ever seen Soraya fight" Fury asked looking at Coulson "No Director, rumors say she's quite an effective warrior on the battlefield even Thor says she's one of the few people you could count on in a battle against a strong enemy" Coulson said as Fury stood up holding a file "Have a look at this and tell me if you think it wise to fight her" Fury handed Coulson the file. As Coulson read the file Fury took a sip of his coffee, he heard the sound the file drop from Coulson's hand and saw the shocked look on Coulson's face "Sir, if what I've just read is true then that means…" Coulson looked at Fury and saw that the director was thinking the same thing "Yes Coulson, If the world Soraya is in has any powerful people and they try and test her out they may find more than they bargained for, as Thor said she maybe powerful in battle but put her up against any superheroes and you may just meet someone capable of killing you in a second" as Fury drank his coffee he looked at a photo of Soraya as a 22 year old but in this picture she wasn't the same girl he knew but a completely different person who's eyes were neither human or vampire but something else completely.


Hope you guys enjoy the chapter, what will happen when the league test Soraya out Will it end good or will they find out more of what she can do then what happened in Fawcett City. (Sorry if the timelines mixed up I had to do a lot of searching to find the right dates to meet up with Soraya's past if it confusing then I'm sorry in advance).
