thank you all for the lovely reviews! since I got so many I have decided to NOT throw Conner off a cliff. Even if I did, well he can FLY PEOPLE! and even the impact wouldn't kill him. So really I tricked you all! HAHAA! In this chapter I am hoping to get some bad guys to appear, maybe and if not in the next chapter definitely.

Disclaimer: no

At Superman's request, they met in front of the Daily Planet building. By the time everyone showed up, it was well past ten and very dark. Everyone had shown up in civvies of course as to not draw attention. Clark and Conner had gotten there first, of course. Conner wearing a heavy leather jacket, and a black shirt with black jeans. Clark wore his old High School football jacket (that Conner just so happened to have), light jeans and a blue polo shirt.

Barry arrived with J'onn, M'gann, Orin and Kaldur. Barry was wearing a sweater that looked like it was pulled out of a garbage bin with similar pants, sneakers and hat to match. M'gann has morphed her clothes so she was wearing a long purple coat and boots, her short hair hidden under a warm hat. J'onn too wore a long coat, but this one covered his whole body. Both martians had changed their skin tone to match their human forms. Orin and Kaldur both had jackets on that covered up their necks, jeans and loafers. Oliver had arrived alone saying at both Roy and Artemis had run off home. He was wearing a green long sleeve shirt with black kakis and what looked like a pair of Roy's old shoes.

"Nice outfit, Allen."

"Shut up. I didn't have anything to wear besides the costume so I had to improvise."

Oliver poked at his holey sweater, "You couldn't just grab something from a good will?"

Barry smacked his hand away, "Enough with the stupid sweater!"

Clark chuckled, "Barry's right. We gathered here for a reason. Oliver."

"Earlier I tried to call some other members of the League but no one answered. Bruce tried the same thing and Dick said he heard of a rumor that Diana and some others went missing around here a few months back. We were hoping to look around and see if we can find anything."

Orin looked around, "Where is Bruce? Was he not going to meet us?"

As if on cue, a tall dark haired man appeared around the corner, dragging with him a boy by his blue hoodie.

Bruce was wearing a black turtle neck with a jacket, kakis and loafers. The boy he was tugging along by the hood, Dick, was wearing a simple blue hoodie, jeans and sneakers.

"Let go of me you jerk! I told you I didn't want to come! Jesus Christ Bruce! Stop it!" Bruce let go of the hood, a deep scowl on his face. The other men parted as Bruce took a stand next to Clark. Apparently he and Dick had been arguing over something that nobody wanted to know about. It would only worsen Bruce's mood more. Dick readjusted his sweatshirt, pulling the hood up to cover his face in darkness. He then went over to stand next to Kaldur, M'gann and Conner.

While the adults talked, M'gann had psychically linked the four of them.

'Everyone online?' She asked out loud into the link.

'Yeah.'

'I'm good.'

'Conformed.' Kaldur concluded.

M'gann turned her head to Dick, who had a sour face and his arms crossed, 'I thought you had a thing with Selina tonight?'

'I did until Mr. I-Can-Do-What-Ever-I-Want dragged me here in case he needed more answers.'

'But you really don't know anything?'

'Nope. All I know is that Luthor is probably involved in this.'

Conner's fists tightened at the mention of his 'father'. 'That would explain why I've never heard of this. If Luthor is involved we can assume that the Light is in on it too.'

Kaldur agreed, 'Most likely. We will have to keep our senses open and be alert. We cannot afford to be seen with the League. M'gann, can you telepathically scan the city for any Light members? Conner, look for familiar heat signatures both in buildings and underground. Dick, may I ask you to do a video search on the nearest LexCorp. building?"

M'gann's eye's glowed a solid green while Conner's glowed a soft red as he stared from one building to the next. Dick had his fingers at his right temple.

'Are you alright?' Kaldur asked him.

'Just some static. Going through the security footage at LexCorp. and as soon as Luthor enters the building all video feed goes haywire. That was three hours ago so he could be long gone now.'

'That was not what I was referring to.'

Dick mentally sighed, 'M'gann, you read Roy and Barbra's minds didn't you?'

'Sorry.' The martian woman apologised, still scanning the city.

'Look Kaldur, it was nothing. Spur of the moment anxiety coupled with lack of sleep. I was just upset after seeing Bruce and the others, that's it.'

'Kaldur,' M'gann's eyes returned to normal. 'I've searched the whole city with no positive matches. Either they are not here or they are being concealed by a more powerful telepath.'

Conner nodded, 'No matching heat signatures either. Unless they're in a room made of lead I got nothing.'

Dick took his hand away from his temple, 'Street footage is clear too. No familiar face in or out in the last hour.'

Kaldur nodded, taking in the information, 'Then we are in the clear. But stay on guard. We do not know if we have been followed or are being watched at this moment.'

They all nodded in agreement then looked back at the older hero's.

J'onn's eyes were glowing.

"I sense no hostiles in the area. Also no sign of Diana or any one else we know."

Clarks eyes glowed red, "I don't see Luthors heat signature either."

"I say we just head up to the Tower now. It's been months since they were here, right? The trails probably ice cold by now." Barry said crossing his arms impatiently.

Everyone had their eyes on Bruce, who was across the street looking at the sidewalk.

Clark walked over to him, "Uh, Bruce-"

"This sidewalk is new. So is the lamppost and parts of the road."

"Yeah so?"

Bruce did not redirect his gaze, "Conner, has there been any major reconstruction in this area over the past year?"

"Not since last week." Conner answered. "Someone set Metalo on LexCorp. but there wasn't any street damage."

"Then why replace the area with new concrete." It wasn't a question.

"I haven't seen any construction crews here. When would this have happened?"

The dark man stood up, his back turned from everyone.

"Barry, you and Orin stay here with the kids. See if you can find anything in the immediate area. The rest of us will go to the WatchTower and find out any information regarding recent League missions."

"We're not kids." Conner grumbled.

Barry looked insulted, "Why don't we all go? Orin and I are just as much a part of-"

"We need you to scout the city." Bruce went into Batman mode. "You're the fastest member of the League and you'll need help searching from the sky and looking for clues. Orin, I want you to go to Atlantis and ask about anything they may have heard about the League in the past few months or anything of significance on the surface world in the past year. Kaldur can help you. Conner, right now you and M'gann know Meropolis better than anyone. Dick, I am asking you to hack into Luthors main office and look up any files he doesn't want found."

Dick looked like he was about to argue, but Kaldur spoke to him though the link.

'Do as he asks.'

The younger boy scowled but didn't argue against the order.

'M'gann. Can you keep the link up if I am out of the state?'

'You could swim as far as Scotland before I lost connection.'

'Kaldur what are you going to do about-'

'I will act when an opportunity presents itself. For now we follow Batman's orders until I give you further instructions.'

Conner looked at the older version of himself. "How do you plan on getting into the WatchTower? The Hall of Justice was closed off two years ago."

Oliver smiled, "We have our ways. You four just be careful."

M'gann smiled back at him, "Oh we'll be fine."

Two Hours Later

Artemis sat in bed reading a book while Wally slept next to her. The book was her favourite, one Jade had gotten for her tenth birthday; Alice In Wonderland. Wally had recently found it in a box and had made fun of her until she threatened him with no dinner.

She was right at the part where Alice was meeting the Cheshire Cat, when the phone next to her went off.

Wally groaned and threw a pillow over his face, "It's almost one in the morning! Who in their right mind would call-"

"It's Jade, Baywatch."

"That explains so much."

"Go back to sleep."

She pressed the answer button and put the phone to her ear.

"Hey Jade. Why the late call?"

"Do you know where Roy is? Is he there?" Her sisters voice yelled into Artemis' ear.

"I thought he went home after me? He isn't here by the way. Have you tried his cell?"

"It wasn't on."

"He could be at a bar."

"We have a rule against late night drinking in this house! Plus I've already tried every bar in town and all his usual places. I've even called his work pals and they have nothing!"

Artemis rolled her eyes. Roy was twenty-two years old, married and had a baby girl. The least he could do was act like an adult and let Jade know where he was.

"Maybe he's out-"

"No! Every night he comes home at midnight or calls if he won't be home until later. Then he'll get back and raid the fridge, kiss Lian and go to bed. I haven't gotten a single call and..."

She heard her sister sigh.

"Artemis I'm worried about him. If he isn't home by morning I'm going to report him missing and go search for him myself. I want you to help me."

The ex-archer looked at the sleeping pile of blanket that was her boyfriend. If Wally was missing...

"Call me when you want to leave. I'll tell Wally and maybe Oliver knows something. I'm sure he's fine Jade, this is Roy we are talking about. I'll see you in the morning. Get some sleep."

And TA-DA! THE END!

lol just kidding. this is definitely not the end I have many plans from here on out! MWHAHAHA!

okay. just review.

byebye!
