Hi guys! Father Canada here with this new chapter that I had made a bit longer. Trying to put as much as I can in it without telling the whole story. One thing I need to inform you guys is that the characters from the beginning of Young Justice are the same up until now. Except Artemis and Kid Flash…the original Kid Flash is alive and Artemis is not Tigress…that is all and enjoy!
Chapter 3: Getting to know Earth!
-On the way to Harbin China-
Taylor was carrying Zatanna in his arms as he flew to Harbin, China to attend the Snow and Ice festival he was invited to by this old and elderly couple he had saved in Crystal Lake by a machete wielding monster. They had paid for a room just for extra because they were so grateful.
Zatanna had made a magical barrier around the two so she would be affected by the friction made by Taylor's speed. It amazed her how powerful he is, sad that he was created a weapon, made her mad a little but hearing that his father had given him a childhood as a ghost was much better.
"So what's this Snow and Ice festival?", She asked looking around as they flew and the scenery had went by it looked like they were going through a time portal.
"Hmm in books that a festival exhibiting the most amazing ice and snow sculptures anyone has ever saw. Every year people build these incredible things out of ice and snow, decorating them with lights and lasers, sometimes fire if they were made in a certain way. This exhibition has a lot to offer, one can only find out after visiting it...and it is phenomenal! Also it has some pretty good food, and drinks," He said and darkness had covered the sky as they arrived in Hiban, China.
"Sounds fun…",She said and saw assorted lights in the distance. She really didn't have anything to say after that, she new she was about to enjoy herself so she would let her actions speak for herself. Taylor had landed on a hotel called Sofitel Warbin, Zatanna gasped at the beauty of the city and at the hotel. She saw Taylor go around the corner to go change, so she waited. He came back around in a suit The Flash had loaned him for this occasion and saw a face he made.
"What trickery is this?", The books told me these would be comfortable", He complained and was going to burn it off him but remembered that 1. It was loaned to him, 2. He didn't have a spare set of clothes besides his costume, and 3. He well...looked pretty good in it. Not every guy can rock a black and blue suit and tie. Zatanna grinned at this and raised her hand.
"Brag em rof lavitsef", she shouted and her clothes suddenly change to a blue kimono with purple flowers on them. Her hair was tied in a bun and she had her hair tied into a bun with two needles going through her hair. She had blue slip on shoes and makeup to match. She then grinned and Taylor clapped in approval. "Sorcery!"
Her face had then changed then she had crossed her arms. "No it's not sorcery it's magic", She explained to him.
He didn't listen. "You are a wizard Zatanna", He laughed.
Normally she would be a bit annoyed but his poor attempt to re-incite a movie reference was hilarious, so in the end it was him who had gotten annoyed. "It's not funny, "He mumbled and she had continued to laugh and then he turned away.
"Aww lighten up it was funny...you should be proud of yourself, normally I would get annoyed by anyone confusing sorcery with magic but you got lucky, "She grinned and then turned around. "Come let's go and enjoy ourselves."
Taylor nodded and walked towards the edge preparing to jump off until Zatanna had cleared her throat. "Aye forgetting something, "She said gesturing to herself.
It didn't take a dummy to realize that she meant himself. He had went towards her and gently grabbed her by the waist causing her to blush, he leaped off the building and landed in the shadows silently. They had come out of the bushes and walked into the hotel and went to check in, afterwards they had went to their room on the top floor. Once they arrived Zatanna nodded in approval at how gorgeous it was and turned to Taylor who was sitting on the bed and then turned on the T.V.
"I'm pretty sure you won't be able to understand their language so i don't see a point in watching the news if you can't understand them," Zatanna said and saw Taylor eyes flash a bit then he looked at him.
"Shénme shì nǐ shuō guānyú bù xuéxí yīzhǒng xīn de yǔyán?", He grinned at her and then her jaw-dropped. "What?"
"What were you saying about learning a new language?" He laughed and it was her turn to look stupid. "Yea not so funny now,"
"Epat sih htuom tuhs", she said and tape had covered his mouth. His eyes had widened and then Taylor had melted it with his breath.
"I've been tired of your shit for the past 4 weeks", He sighed with a slight smile.
"Oh that hurts my little magician heart, "She pouted.
"Sorcerer", He corrected.
"Shut up, "She told him and looked outside and saw people getting in their cars and traffic had begun to crowd up. "So I guess we go to where the festival is,"
Taylor nodded then stood up, he opened the window and floated out, Zatanna flew out as well, the festival wasn't that far away so there was no need for him to hold her...just the thought made her blush and again.
Taylor had led the way to the Snow and Ice festival a little ways laughing as there was a huge traffic jam, once they made it they had landed in the tree and came out clean.
Then the beauty had shown itself, sculptures of ice and snow with different styles, shapes, and sizes had surrounded the area and illuminated brightly with different lights. To Zatanna it was beautiful and to Taylor, it reminded him of the Subzero Festival where statues of the ice giants come to life and battle or dance for the people. They would have a mystic glow to them as they performed for the people who had worshipped they're hard work for the citizens. He sighed and Zatanna notice this and then she chuckled.
"What's up? Too much for you? "She asked and then looked Taylor smiled snapping out of his mindset.
"It's perfect, I'm glad they had invited me to this…",He smiled and held his arm out and then Zatanna took it and they had began walk and tour the area.
-Watchtower-
Superman was at the giant window of the Watchtower looking over Earth, he was thinking about recent events that had happened and one of the big ones on his mind was Taylor. For some reason, he had genuinely cared for the new member and wanted him to have a normal life as a teen while being a hero on the side. It bothered him, and it was something he was going to have to bring up later on.
'I'll have to see If Batman can do something about giving him a fake profile or something, 'He thought to himself.
Then on cue, the Dark Knight had walked up beside Batman and stood next to him. "What's bothering you? "He asked knowing full well what's going on with him. It was one his mind during the meetings.
"Taylor...I get he has grew up a spectre but he hasn't really had a childhood where he could touch, feel, and taste. I want that for him aside from doing his duties of being a Justice League member."
Bruce took all this into consideration and thought about. Taylor was proving himself to be a valuable asset to the cause and he wouldn't doubt that he had most of the members vouch for him. He then decided to ease Superman of his issues. "I think I can help with this issue...just give me a week so I can slip the information into the system and then he'll be good hope you're ready to have a son, "He said then turned and walked away.
"Jeez didn't know you had a soul Bruce. "Superman joked continuing to look down at Earth.
The Dark Knight only smirked and continued to walk away.
-Saturday Afternoon, Zatanna's and Taylor's home-
Zatanna had fallen asleep on the couch, after last night she couldn't make it to her bed. She was worn out from all that moving and eating, not that it was a bad thing, but she had too much fun. Taylor on the other hand wasn't tired, he didn't really need to sleep unless he wanted to talk to his mother. He was currently sitting on his bed in his superhero attire putting some spare clothes into a backpack. He had just got back from Illinois and was going back to go hangout with Megan like promised. He wondered what they were doing today, couldn't be as good as last night, but it bothered him that it was going to be as good. He didn't know why though, but more fun is good he guessed. The hero had stood up and had walked to the patio door. He looked back at Zatanna and went to put a blanket on her then he had flew out to the Willis Tower.
-The Willis Tower-
Megan was sitting on top of the skyscraper waiting on her friend Taylor to come so they can hangout. She saw and streak of black and orange fire fly through the city and could only guess that it was Taylor. She had zipped right passes him and saw a giant monster blob of clay and sewage. She smiled and followed silently as she saw him combat the monster as it slowly trudged through the streets.
"Come on you ugly piece of trash, it's gonna take a lot more that piss and shit to put out my flames, "Taylor said as his he flew in front of the monster who desperately tried to get at the hero.
It had did nothing but roar and threw more sludge bombs at him, Taylor had shot fireballs at the projectiles and incinerated them so they wouldn't hit any of the civilians or their homes. He had stopped once he saw a populated area and his eyes began to lit up a scarlet red color and with a grin he arched his back and the monster had knew what came next.
"Light em' up!", He grinned and let loose a horrific hellfire heat vision upon the monster. It had quickly ended his poor career choice and then he was nothing more than a pile of ashes.
His eyes returned to normal and then he looked at the trail of mess the monster has made and used his flames to turn the rest into tiny piles of ashes, while along the way he ,made sure the people were in good shape and tried his best to get them what they needed. Megan had watched as he did his work and it made her smile.
She had saw him talk to some cops and decided to make herself known, she had floated next to him and the cops had gasped and give him dirty looks which only made him squint. He to see Megan next to him with a small smile on her face. He then smiled and then looked at the cops who tip their hats and left.
"That was an amazing display of your work, so you ready?", She asked him turning to look at him. "I know you're not thoroughly familiar with Earth's culture and that's why I want to take you somewhere...it's kind of in the middle of nowhere. You ever heard of the country?", She asked.
"Eww the weird screams of the dead they play on the music box?", He asked with a face of disgust. "No let's do something else,"
She laughed hard for a few minutes and sighed. "No not country music, the country...the opposite of the city,"
"Oh like the majority of Kansas?", He asked and then caused the Martian nodded. "Yea...I saw this place when I was flying over here and I just wanted to sit there and get to know you more as a friend and see what you can do,"
"Okay so where is this place?", He asked and then began to float.
"Sonoma City, California "She said and did the same. "Follow me...if we hurry we can get there in 3 or 4 hours. "She said being full aware of his speed and knowing that she couldn't keep up.
Taylor nodded and then put his mask back on. "Hopefully this doesn't get me tanner than what I'm already am, "He said.
Megan chuckled. "Yea...I can't imagine you with any other skin tone than your light copper skin."
"Opps I tried to mimic the closest person I could fine, "He frowned and looked at his body.
"Mimic? Wait I thought you didn't have any other forms?", Megan asked as the two began to fly away bickering at each other.
-Batcave-
Batman was sitting at his desk typing in fake information for Taylor. If he was going to be a real citizen of the United States, he would need a parents which would be Clark Kent a.k.a Superman and Lois Lane, that would mean his brothers and sisters would be Super girl and Superboy. He stayed in Small Ville, Kansas, and graduated from Small Ville High School. Filled in some other information too like his birthdate, social security number, and all other important stuff. Once he finished he had put it in the system and it would ease its way in slowly then in about a week he would be there. He had then put the files into a folder and looked at something that crossed his eye. It was a folder containing all the ways to kill the Justice League and a recorder. He pulled it out and began to think. Taylor was a part of the League now but there was no known way to kill him if he had ever gone rogue. He then picked up the recorder and then began to speak into it.
"Subject 0457, Taylor Kent, after arriving on the planet Earth a month ago, there is currently no none way to kill him if he had ever turned rogue, though separating his spirit from his mind will shut off his ability to use hell fire and summon chains, more will be added as I watch over him, "He spoke and stopped the recording then put the files back into the drawer.
This was something he had to do...even to himself if he had ever turned rogue, it wasn't being evil...call it taking precautions.
-The Watchtower, several hours later-
Batman had arrived at the Watchtower just in time to catch Superman talking with The Flash. He had approached the two and Flash took it as a sign that he had needed to leave so he did. Superman had turned to Batman and the Dark Knight had held out a folder containing all of his records. "This is the information I mad about Taylor, he has his high school and if he wants to enroll into College let me know, "He said and Superman had taken the folder and nodded.
"I appreciate it I will inform Taylor as soon as I see him", He had told the Dark Knight and at the two had parted.
-Sonoma City, California 3 hours later-
Megan and Taylor were on one of the shiny grassy hills of the countryside of the city. It was about 3 in the afternoon and the two had spent the past hour talking about Megan's past life when she first came to Earth. There was some times they laughed and times he had held her for a hug when she would start crying. After that it was just a bunch of shits and giggles after that.
"Wow you've had an interesting life, and that's what I kinda want...I love Chicago and all and me defending it is adventurous and couldn't ask for anything better, but for some reason I want more...I'm not trying to sound greedy about it but yea…",He laughed sheepishly at the last part rubbing his arms.
"On no you're not being greedy, I understand how you feel, when I first got here on Earth that was how I felt when I joined the Team...and it still is...I want to go to College in the future and be a part of something big…",She chuckled and then looked at him then grinned. "OH and Mister back to what I was asking earlier what your alien forms look like," She asked and turned towards him and then Taylor had made a sigh.
"Okay okay I will jeez," He said standing up and then his body had slowly began to morph into this humanoid alien that was slender and the top of his arms where covered by three black and shiny rings. His head was weird and it almost looked like he had a helmet on but it wasn't, the top was an arrow shape with a flaming spine all the way down and protruded off him making a tail. Taylor had tattoos that were glowing a scarlet red and was moving like fire was inside of them. Most of his body was all black except for minor pieces that was orange and scarlet.
Megan had stared in awe at this and then stood up and floated around him. "Wow and I thought it was only me and my uncle, you look scary and lethal, and "She told him then finally stood in front of him.
"Yea and on my planet we vary from all shapes and sizes, "He told her and then reverted back to his human form. "But I like this form though, light tan skin, green and blue eye, and the voice of power what all could I ever ask for, but I love where I came from so I embrace my alien side. "He told her and then she smiled but that smile knew he was hiding something.
Each time he had smiled at her it really bugged her, he knew he was in pain but never knew he had other motives. So she had a question. "mm can I see what your planet looked like? By going into your head I can see what your planet had looked like with my own eyes."
Taylor had thought about it and then shook his head. "It may work that way with others but not with me...you're not going to my brain you're going to another dimension. "Taylor said sitting on the ground and had then propped himself on his arms. "But go ahead if you don't believe me,"
Megan gulped and nodded, she went behind him and rested on her knees then put her hands gently on his head. She had begun to work her magic and then both their spirits were transported to his Astral plane.
-Taylor's Astral Plane-
They had arrived on a cliff near his mother's throne who was not present, she was attending to things in "Hell" as this planet would put it. Taylor looked at Megan who was a gaped at the beauty of his astral plane.
"Wow...a perfect representation of night and day and this looks like the Grand Canyon.", she said and then looked at Taylor who was staring at the sky.
"Yea...everyone's is different at that...you would have the nicest person on the planet and your Astral plane would be a land full of nightmares...that's how my planet worked at least, lead to a lot of suicides. Heck, I guess I pulled the lucky stick, "Taylor smiled sadly and then shook it away. "But yea this is my mind...everything you want is in here...somewhere, in a way I'm always lost in thought, trying to find the answers even though I had read over a million books since I've been here…but It's like as soon as I read it, the information just goes into a vault somewhere in here unless I learn from personal experience.",
While he was talking Megan was still shocked that the fact that her had read a million books. "A million? What are you a computer?", She asked.
"Well my brain is….when I was reconstructed I was given a brain that could run a lot faster than light could travel...but like I said...the things I read it goes in a vault somewhere… maybe when my body needs sleep I'll go soul searching for all the knowledge I had obtained so far all the things I currently know as of now are in books floating around...like this one. "He said picking a floating brown book out of the air and then opened and began to read it and a second later he was done. "See now I can recite the whole U.S constitution and its amendments, bill of rights, all 50 states, and all presidents, "He said and then the book had turned to golden dust.
"Wow...you're people must've had some impressive technology to do all this, "She said. "What else can you do?",
"A Lot but little at the same time, "Taylor said and then stretched. "You ready to head back?",
Megan nodded and the next thing she knew Taylor had pushed her off the cliff and she went screaming falling into one of the many rivers making a mystical splash.
-Reality-
Megan had woken up with a gasp and her chest was rising rapidly and going down just as fast. She frowned and then punched Taylor's arm who was still unresponsive, she waited a few minutes and shook him. "He buddy...you up?", She asked as she got worried. She leaned closer and then Taylor eyes had popped open.
"Boo, "He scared her and she jumped back squeaking. She had then began to fly after the alien and then they had spent hours playing cat and mice all the way back to the watch tower.
-Zatanna's apartment-
Zatanna was currently waiting for a something to happen, she had been bored for the past 2 days after Taylor had took her to the festival. Ever since then she had nothing to do, there was a few parties she had went to and they were okay but other than that she was bored. She had then decided to head to the Watchtower and hangout.
-Watchtower-
Taylor and Megan were still trying to chase each other around the base. Superboy had watch with a frown, Tigress was punching a punching bag, and the other teens were minding their business. Black Canary had just gotten out of the meeting and it was time to give Taylor his combat training. She saw him being chased by Miss Martian who had a face like she wanted to seriously punch the guy.
"Taylor! "She shouted halting the alien in his tracks and Megan had saw this and tried to halted and was about to bump into Taylor until he had caught her in a bridal style then tossed her in the air where she had then floated...still having her pouty face.
"The League wanted me to give you your initial combat training, come and follow me to the training, room," She said and the alien had then followed her to the training room and Megan behind him, then attracting more of the young heroes.
-In the training room-
The hand went to a massive gym-like room in the Watchtower where everything was hardened to the core, in case they would like to let out some real damage. Canary and Taylor made they're way to the center and then she had turned around and the two were a couple feet away from each other.
"Okay show me what you can do...and don't want you to hold back either, "She told him and lunged forward.
"Wait give me a few minutes! "Stopping her much and she had then stopped and waited.
"Very well take your time kid, "She said kindly, being the League's combat trainer for the newcomers she had a great deal of patience and care.
Taylor had then crossed his legs and began took and meditating form while floating.
-Observer room-
"What's he doing?" Tigress asked slightly intrigued as well as some others.
"Searching…" Megan murmured and the others turned towards her, she looked at them a bit surprised by the eyes staring at her awaiting an explanation.
"Umm well me and Taylor hung out today umm...I went into his mind...turn out that his brain is also his brain is a dimension to his Astral plane. He told me he had read a million books in the past day but there were books floating around in the plane...possibly a million. He read a history in his dimension and "claimed" his knowledge. "She said trying her best to explain. "Well that's the best I can explain it at the moment,"
Superboy frowned and turned his head back towards the training room where Black Canary and Taylor were. He wasn't fond of her going through his teammate's minds like that even, if he had trust issues with one of them. That's the whole reason they weren't together now.
"So you're saying that he can read every book in the world, but he has to go to this "astral plane" to claim what he has read, so he's scans and downloads it basically, "Night Wing asked as he just arrived with some other members. "That's impressive and could be useful in the future."
"Yea I'll say where he was when we were in high school, "Kid Flash chuckled.
-Training room, 5 minutes later-
Black Canary was still waiting on her new student, she had sat on the ground her legs crossed as she watched him and studied his stature. Taylor had popped his eyes opened and had stood on the ground gracefully." Okay I'm ready now, "He said and the teacher had nodded.
"Very well, "She said getting into her stance and then lunged at him aiming for a leg sweep hoping to follow it up with an uppercut. She was surprised when he had spun out of the way gracefully with his arms folded and did a leg sweep when she had rose up.
'How did?', She was trying to figure out how he saw that coming when he was able to see that coming. He had no stance, he just stood there and watched. Then the second her foot would have made contact with his leg he moved, she couldn't stop but she had kept rising and that's when she was bested. She then smiled and stood up dusting herself off. "Well I'm impressed, let's try that again with you on the defense, "She told him and she had then put her a game on and charged towards him.
-Observer room-
The teens were amazed at what just happened, some were rather speechless and others were cheering for the two, though Black Canary kept falling on her butt but seem to enjoy it.
"Wow he must have read a book on every fighting style or watched a video or something…", Night Wing noted. "What in the right mind gave him that type of brain?",
"Beats me but look at him go Canary is getting it handed to her, "Kid Flash laughed and then a timer had went off.
-In the training field-
Black Canary was out of breath and had her hands on her knees and she was breathing hard. Her butt had begun to hurt from falling on it so many times, but she had to give credit where credit was due.
"My, my I am impressed I guess there is no combat training for you, but in 2 hours I still have to do your mental training, "She said and the two had then exited and parted ways.
-Lounge area-
Taylor had found himself in the lounge area of the Watchtower and then looked around for anything to do. He saw a shelf of books and went over to them, in the doorway was Zatanna who had found who she was looking for.
"Taylor you haven't been home in a while what's been up with you buddy?", She asked walking over to her roommate then leaned the wall in front of him.
"Well nothing Illinois has finally calmed down for a bit, I've been with Megan for most of my time, and I had just gotten out of combat training, "Taylor told his friend who nodded at his answer.
"So what are you doing today?", She asked hoping he have some free time.
"Mental training, "He said simply and then nodded.
"Are you sure? I don't know if you're stable enough for it, "Zatanna said worried for him.
This made Taylor think and then he chuckled. "As long as they don't separate my spirit from my body then i'll be fine, the other side of me doesn't want to listen to the truth but the side you are talking to now knows the truth...even though it hurts to lose your family and entire planet, but who hasn't these days…",
Zatanna smiled and patted his back. "That's the spirit buddy!" She chuckled and then saw some of the members come to the lounge. She didn't pay no mind and so that Taylor was reading a book.
"I still don't know how you can read a million books but it shows off sometimes, "She noted and the tall women had stood over his shoulder looking at what he was reading. "Aww a book food?", She noticed.
"Yea...I'm just scanning and when I go to my plane Ima have to find it and reread it before it can be of any use…",Taylor explained to her in case she didn't know.
She didn't know and nodded at how it works now she does, but she wondered what this astral plane had looked like. She smiled and poked him. "Hey take me to this plane of yours, "She said and then he shook his head much to her disappointment.
"I don't know telekinesis...that's one thing I cannot do...it's rather a huge weakness of mine though, "He said and then saw Miss Martian who had waved at him. "Ask Megan, she could transport us both and then I'll show you what it looks like."
"So you need a person who does telekinesis and telepathy to be able to go to your Astral plane, "She said looking at him.
"Yep my sorcerer friend, "Taylor grinned and closed the book, he was already done with it but he like the pictures so he just stared at them.
"I'm going to hurt you," She said giving him a deadpanned expression. This made the alien laugh and then he turned around and looked at the time high on the wall on the opposite side of the room.
"I have a whole hour and forty-five minutes before I have this mental training, "Taylor said and his stomach had growled. "Where's the food palace in this establishment!" He mildly yelled and Zatanna took his hand.
"Come now my child, I'll show you a place where dreams come true…" She cooed and began to fly with Taylor following him.
-Eatery in the Watchtower-
Zatanna had taken Taylor to the cafe' in the Watchtower and they went through the line getting a plate to eat. Taylor's plate consisted of lobster tail, Shrimp and the lots of it, and crab legs. Zatanna had a simple plate of salad for obvious reasons. They had taken a seat near the door then began to eat.
"So Scarlet King...how is Chicago?" She asked. "You've been spending a lot of time down there and I haven't been seeing you lately,"
"Chicago is well Chicago, it has its ups and downs, I save other cities when they need my help but it's come to the point they have their own local heroes coming out of the dark...and villains, "Taylor said and sighed at the last part. "Already have one under my belt, he's only bad when he gets poop everywhere,"
Zatanna made a face and this and hesitant to ask what his name was until Taylor had continued.
"No one knows his name and he claims he wants to be cured of his appearance, but keeps robbing banks and hides in the sewers where he gains his powers and grows...so we call him Sewer Man...not very original, but most of our names aren't, "He chuckled and looked at Zatanna who was laughing.
"Yea...It's nice though, the people there are something else but they are good people with good intentions anyway,"
"I'm glad you like it there...so when can I visit?" She asked after eating a few bites of her salad. "I hear they have good parties down there, "She giggled.
"They do...been invited to several but never went. "He said and then Zatanna had gave him a look.
"Seriously...I mean you should go, I get the whole identity thing but you should go for real," Zatanna's eye had begun to sparkle.
"Maybe one day, "He told her then she nodded.
"Let me know so I can come…and be some of your friends, "She said nodding her head towards the door as Megan, Kid Flash, and Tigress had come in together talking, Megan had waved at Taylor then he had gave her a greeting smile, then looked back at Zatanna who had a look in her eye, a cocked eyebrow, and had a smirk on her face.
"What?" Taylor asked looking around and then began wiping his face.
"So what's up with you to anyway? You too are the talk around the tower, "She grinned and leaning closer.
"I don't-, Zatanna had stopped him from speaking by putting a finger on his lips.
She had shushed him then looked back at Megan who looked over then Taylor leaned over then Zatanna and Taylor looked at each other.
"It's too early to determine if I like her or not...I like spending time with her and she is fun, but as far as liking her it's too early and I don't want to rush it, "He told her then she nodded understanding.
"I get it buddy...you're too scared, "She teased and Taylor looked up at her.
"Am not,"
"Are too," She told him and then stood up. "If you're not going to tell her then I will…" She threatened with a toothy grin. Taylor blushed and stood up as well.
"Well then I'll huh...tell what his face how you feel is!" He threatened as well.
She raised an eyebrow. "Uh who exactly?"
"I don't know it was just a bluff, "He mumbled and scratched his head looking at the ground. "But honestly it's too early,"
"I know Tay I'm just pulling your chain, "She chuckled and picked up her plate. "Come I want to watch you do this mental simulation," Then with that last part her smile faded.
"What's wrong? Is it that bad? "He asked and then she shook her head giving him a fake smile.
"No It's not...I just don't want you hurt is all, "She said and then the two had walked out and back to the training simulation.
-Training room-
Black Canary and J'onn where in the control room, with Zatanna in the observer window, and Taylor in the Training window.
"Okay Taylor are you sure you are ready?" Dinah asked and the alien put a thumbs up. "Okay since we are doing this we are going to have to put your spirit into stasis according to J'onn, for a short moment and then when we are done we are going to put you to sleep, now are you sure you want to do this?", She asked with a serious look.
Again, the alien had put his thumb up and another one for reassurance.
"Okay J'onn start, "She said and then using his telepathy he had blocked his spirit from his brain so they can begin working on training his brain without "The Actual" Taylor, in a sense.
-Simulation-
The next thing Taylor knew he was then transported back to his astral plane. Taylor's body had then found himself in a apocalyptic style wasteland. He heard the sound of laser beam words and screams and so by instinct he had followed the sounds to see that his worst nightmare was being relieved again. Bodies of all the Justice League members were scattered about some intact and others in pieces. He felt his anger and sadness swell up and looked to see a figure beating Zatanna's skull in. Then what had broken him was when the figure snapped her neck. That had done it...his black blood had begun seeping out of his skin and then his eyes turned blood red. The figure had rushed towards Taylor just to be grabbed by his skull and crushed into the ground.
"No more…" He whispered as his eyes began to burn and then let out a horrific heat vision blast from his eyes, it was the sound of wind being torn apart and the screams of those who had died from his planet. It had destroyed the figure until there was nothing left.
"No more…" He whispered and began to cry as his blood began to engulf his body.
-Reality-
The alarms were sounding inside the training room and Taylor was whispering "no more" to himself and occasionally would let out a heat vision or to. Dinah and J'onn were trying to shut it down but J'onn telekinesis was blocked and suffered a psychic blast almost knocking him out.
"Dinah to Justice League we need assistance in the training room! Now!", She yelled and got confirmation that Superman, The Flash, and Wonder Woman was on their way.
The blood had fully covered Taylor then turned him into something horrific and the vile creature that looked like something straight out of a horror book had roared and then blasted a blast of black hellfire at the roof and then flew out to the opposite direction of Earth.
-Observer's room-
Watching this, Zatanna, Megan, Superboy, Kid Flash, and Tigress, were worried on about the situation and saw what was going on. Zatanna knew this would happen and wish she could help and so did the others. They knew what he was going through but this was something he would have to train himself.
-Training room-
Superman, The Flash, and Wonder Woman were in the training room looking up at the hole Superman had just repaired with his heat vision so no more air could escape. They had analyzed the situation and then decided that Superman would go look for him.
"I'll go talk to him if I can find him…" Superman said and began to leave.
The others had nodded and Superman went to go find Taylor, while the others went to check on J'onn.
-Venus, somewhere-
Taylor had sat on a rock on the poisonous planet, he hadn't went to sleep yet and currently he was just letting out random laser vision beams tearing the giant rock up. The other half of Taylor couldn't take it, though he knows the truth he just couldn't take it and with a heavy breath he began to glow a golden light.
"No more…"
