Happy Harbor 6:56 pm
Zatanna had just convinced the eighteen year old reporter to join the Team. She was feeling mighty proud of herself, even though Myra had requested transportation so she could go to work, it had gone quite well. Myra was busy pulling things out from a dusty chest in the living room of the cave.
Still in her costume, Zatanna leaned over her. "Found anything yet?" Myra looked up at her and sneezed. "Nope, nothing that will fit." She leaned back in and dug around. The chest held some extra pieces for costumes from the various members of the Team and League.
"So the Zeta is down?" Myra asked, her voice slightly muffled from the chest.
Zatanna sighed. "Yeah, the Team's tech person shut it down to prevent either side from using it."
"There's a tech person?"
"Yeah. She used to work for the Team before the war. The government made her sign some forms to make sure she wouldn't go on one side. She has enough technology and brains to hack into every computer in America."
"Really? Where is she now?" Myra asked curiously, looking up from the trunk.
"Right now she's in Nepal with Kid Flash defusing some situation."
"I thought You, Black Canary, and Robin were left?"
"At the start. We found Kid Flash in a Cadmus underground about a year ago or so. He didn't want to pick a side, so he's with us."
"Ah-ha! This might work!" Myra stood up, holding out a black jumpsuit. "Who's was this?"
Zatanna glanced at the outfit and frowned. "That was Black Canary's first outfit. Will it fit?"
Myra nodded. "What about shoes?" she asked. Zatanna thought about it for a minute. "I have a pair you can use."
Myra smiled. "Thanks. I can't afford much on my salary."
"Aren't you a reporter?"
"Well, yeah. But they pay me like a part time. It's hard to even find a job these days. I was lucky that I managed to even keep my internship and replace one of the reporters. You're the one who is re-forming an entire covert operations team to fight this villain group, which shows up out of nowhere, while the remaining members of the League try to stop the war."
Zantanna crossed her arms. "You're right. We just need to find you a mask." Myra snorted. "We? I'm digging in here."
Zatanna laughed. "Okay, true."
Myra held up a black mask without frames. "Who's was this?" she asked. Zatanna glanced at the mask and then paled.
"Um, That was the 2nd Robin's mask. Before he…you know….died. It was a spare." She said quietly.
Myra looked at the mask in her hands. "Do you mind if I-?"
Zatanna smiled weakly. "Sure, go ahead. We can go get your boots and you're gonna be set."
Myra smiled back. "Can't wait."
Star City Ruins, 7:00pm
Picking at her nails, Nora Cassidy walked through the rubble. About a year or so ago, there was a huge battle that destroyed Star City. Nora had been traveling along and just decided to stop here for the night.
She threw her bag down on a flat slab of concrete and sat down in front of it. When she looked up, she could see all the stars. There was no more light pollution in Star City. She pulled a cigarette from her pocket and lit it with the green lighter in her jacket pocket.
She shivered as it began to snow, though very lightly. She had to think about the temperatures when she found a place to sleep.
She took a deep drag of the lit cigarette and shivered as the heat warmed to what seemed like her bones. She blew it out and sighed. The war had pretty much torn everything apart from the world, herself included. She was a free spirit, a drifter, just going wherever the wind would take her.
She had to admit, sometimes it sucked.
A shadow appeared in front of her. Skinny, but somewhat muscular. She sighed again. "What could I help you with?" she asked, being more calm then she should have been.
She reached into her bag picked up a flashlight. When she shined it on him, she nearly fell off the slab.
"Wonder Boy?" she asked. Behind her a voice cried out, "It's Boy Wonder!" Nora looked around and spotted another person. A girl who looked extremely cat like in the shadows.
She faced the boy again. "So… you gonna mug me or?" The girl behind her snickered. "I like her."
"Nora Cassidy?"
"Yeah?"
"We need your help."
Location Unknown, Unknown Time
Leaning over a map, a shadowy figure scoffed.
"We're going to do this nice and easy."
Across the room in the dim lighting, a girl with long hair in braids smiled in a twisted way. "What makes you so sure?" she purred in that way of hers.
"Everyone is so busy fighting, it's time for Endpoint to make an appearance."
She laughed. "There you go again, so bent on destroying the world." She got up from leaning on the wall and moved in closer. "You're so cute when you're stressed." She purred.
The air suddenly crackled, and a flash of light shot through the room, illuminating the girl's smirking face for a millisecond.
"I am not stressed. Be useful and go get ready."
She girl laughed again. "Okay, okay." She held her hands up in an "I'm defeated gesture."
The figure looked back down at the map. "This is gonna be fun."
Hey guys! Sorry about not updating! My little cold got bad so I had to go to the ER and later the hospital. I just got discharged today and I'm posting this because I love you all so much. Just a reminder and to add on, do NOT say you can't wait for your character to show up, cameo or not. I will make them wear a bra and panties in public, regardless of gender.
I'm serious.
A big thanks to SpunkyGirl6487 for helping me so much! Please go check out the story she and The Jesteress are co-writing!
So, what did you think? Any ideas about what will happen next? I did add little hint of what's to come… *BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA *cough* Haaaa…*
REVIEW OR DIE!
