"Can you elaborate?" Kent asked
"When the justice League gets here." Garrett said. Kent nodded and they waited for the league. It wasn't long before members of the league came to the tower of fate. The members that were there were Batman, The flash, Green Arrow and Superman. When Garrett saw Superman, he lunged at him only to be blocked by Batman.
"Stop now." Batman commanded and to everyone's surprise Garrett stopped.
"Okay kid explain yourself." The flash said
"I'll only talk with Batman and Green Arrow. I don't trust you or Superman." Garrett said looking at Flash.
"Fine." Batman said. Batman, Green Arrow and Garrett walked into the room Garrett woke up in.
"Now talk." Batman said looking at Garrett.
"Okay. My name is Garrett Dobbs code-named Forge for my magic." Garrett said
"What magic?" Green Arrow asked
"Well, Oliver, I can reach into a spirit dimension and draw out weapons." Garrett said
"Okay if that's…" GA started
"How do you know his real name?" Batman asked
"You see, Bruce, In my dimension both of you told me and my team." Garrett said getting a sad look in his eye when he said the last part. Batman glared at the kid.
"What do you mean your dimension?" Batman asked in a serious tone. Garrett sighed and began his story.
"I'm from a world where Superman and the rest of the super powered league members started a tyrannical rule of Earth. All the human green lanterns became yellow and the rest ruled Earth with an iron fist. There were three members of the league stayed on the side of good though." Garrett said befor taking a breath
"Which members?" GA asked
"You, Batman, and Zatara stayed and fought for justice. The three of you formed a rebellion that fought against the High Councilor's regime." Garrett said
"Who was the high councilor?" Batman question
"The big blue guy out there." Garrett said looking toward the door before continuing
"I joined the rebellion after the death of my parents. Apparently Superman decided all magic users need to die. Probably so he could get rid of one of his weakness. By the time I joined the rebellion joined with The League of Shadows." Garrett said taking another breath. "I was taught combat by Batman and Ra' al Ghul. My magic training was handled by Zatara until he dies at the hands of Cyborg. Publicly executed before you ask. It nearly killed Zatanna." Garrett said grimacing at the memory of his teacher dying.
"I was put on a team of elite people each with their own specialty. We were tasked with finding the Helmet of Fate after the tower was destroyed. While infiltrating the High Councilor's main base, my team was caught, exept for me. I looked for them in the base while trying to keep to the mission. I came across a lab and I found a father box. I didn't know what it was at the time so I took it with me. That was when I heard voices from the vents. I was able to use the little bit of knowledge of runic magic I had to open and enter the vents. When I found them, I stopped the mission and went to free them." Garrett said
"You abandoned your mission?" Batman ask looking pissed
"Those who abandon the mission are scum, but those who abandon their comrade are lower." Garrett said matching Batman's tone
"Anyway, That's when it all went to hell. Guards came in and fighting broke out. I killed a lot of them before getting shot in the shoulder. The rest of my team wasn't so lucky They were killed all exept one. He managed to use the father box and open a boom tube. He tossed me in and that's the last thing I remember." Garrett said holding back tears at the memory of his team and the life he had.
Batman and Green Arrow looked at the kid. They didn't know whether to be sad for the kid because of the life he led or disgusted at the fact that he had taken another's life.
"We will talk with the rest of the league before deciding what to do with you. Until then, I'm sorry for the life you live. And until we find a place for you, you will stay with me in Gotham city." Batman said losing a bit of his hard exterior. Garrett gave Batman a small smile before say "Thanks, Bruce."
Batman nodded and led Garrett to the nearest Zeta tube.
