I'm sorry for not updating. Please forgive me. I've been trying to think of a really good chapter. And when I came up with this idea of writing a chapter just about Raine's brothers… The next few chapters will be about Raine's brothers. So, I'm not finishing this story just yet. (But I do have another story in my head.)
So, who wants to see Raine's brothers in action?
Well, here is part one of the Winters boys.
(In this chapter Anita is two years old and sometimes goes to day care. Alfred or Bruce collect her.)
"It is an honour to be a member of the Justice League"- Logan Winters
Logan…
"Where is the birthday girl?" I asked walking in to backyard. I found my niece sitting in her mother's lap. When she saw me, she raised her arms at me. I picked her up and threw he in the air and caught her.
Her one-year old brother, Mathew was nowhere to be seen. "Where is Matt?" I asked.
"He's in the pool with Ethen." Raine smiled.
I looked over Raine's head and saw Mathew swimming with Ethen holding him. Smiling I turned my attention back to Anita and asked her if she wanted her present. Anita nodded her head eagerly.
"It's in my car. Shall we go and get it?" I asked and got another excited nod.
As we walked to my car Clark and Diana landed right behind my car. They both smiled when they saw Anita.
"Happy Birthday little one" Diana said and Anita squealed and reached for Clark who picked her up and gave her a hug and then she reached for Diana.
"Where's Jonathan?" I asked in wonder.
"Ma is watching him today. She hardly sees him and she wanted to show him off to her friends." Clark replied smiling.
"My Da shows Anita off to his friends at every chance he gets. He does the same with Mathew." I opened the boot to get the present.
"Come on little one. Let's go and see your mummy and daddy." I said and Anita ran up ahead.
"Raine always said that we need the Flash to keep up with that girl." I chuckled. Clark and Diana laughed.
"Someone need call for me?" A familiar voice asked. Clark and Diana turned to see Barry Allen standing there with a present.
"See if you can catch up with that little Angel." I chuckled. Barry sped ahead and a moment later a squeal of delight sounded.
"Gotcha little rascal" Barry's voice said. Clark, Diana and I laughed and walked back to the party.
"Did Raine and Bruce invite the whole Justice League to the party?" Clark asked me.
"Looks like it." I replied laughing. "I gotta feeling that Raine invited the League." I added.
The Kids had a ball, they played in the pool, they had cake (Raine and Alfred made the cake) which had Batman logo on it (big surprise there), Anita opened her presents, and then played some more and then it was time for the kids to go home.
Some of the parents were snooping around to try and get anything to gossip about, but Raine caught them before they went upstairs. "Can I help you?" She asked them in a fake calm happy friendly voice. They got a tour of the house, but Raine and Bruce didn't show them the bedrooms. And the mother's wanted to see Bruce Wayne's bedroom. Some of them don't care that he is married; they still want to go to bed with him.
"Oh, we were looking for the bathroom..." One lady asked. I remember her... she made a move on to Bruce. The woman wouldn't take no for an answer. Bruce is dedicated to his wife and he's a loving father to his children and adopted children. He tried to turn her down gently but it didn't work so I had to step forward. I cleared my throat and the lady thought I was a servant or something.
"Go away. Go and get some more drinks or something." She sneered. I looked down at my clothes. I was wearing my swim trunks and a sleeveless shirt.
"I'm Bruce's brother in law, and I would be most grateful if you stepped away from my sister's husband and leave..." I said... Her eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets. She almost bolted out the door.
But it looks like she didn't leave...
"Alfred, would you be so kind and show them where a bathroom is?" Raine asked Alfred.
"Of course Mrs Raine... Ladies, please follow me."
"Next time, please don't hesitate to ask if you need anything." Raine called out as they ladies followed Alfred. She gave them a look as to say "I know what all of you were doing."
"Nosey, snobby bitches." Raine whispered and glared at their backs. I chuckled and led her
The other mothers were genuine... They actually didn't act like rich snobs; they didn't think that they were above anyone else. One of the nicer mothers actually saw what happened before and told the husband of that woman. They actually wanted to get to know Raine as a person. They asked about me, Ethan, Jace and Ryan.
It turns out that the husband and the woman are divorced and the husband got custody of their daughter and everything else because the woman was cheating and the woman had the daughter on weekends and the woman was supposed to drop her daughter off to the party and leave but she decided to let herself in and stay. I told Bruce and Raine who asked Ethan to escort the woman out of the Manor.
When the party finished and the guest had gone home, Anita and Mathew had passed out from all the fun, Raine collapsed on the sofa in the den. "Next time we have the party at McDonald's or something." She groaned. Bruce sat down beside her and pulled her in to his side.
All that was left was the Justice League.
"Next time not so many kids." Dick grumbled. Raine smiled and leaned over and kissed the side of his head.
"You were brilliant. Thank you for helping." She said.
"Anytime... Well...I better get some rest, before I go on Patrol." Dick got up and went to bed. Damian gave Raine and Bruce a hug before following Dick out of the room. Jason did the same. Damian has changed since Raine came in to the picture...
"Oh Bruce, the CAR is ready and in its spot ready to go. That's why I was a little late..." Batman wanted the Batmobile updated and Jase and I were happy to do it. The Batmobile has a Motorbike attached to the side...
"Thank you very much. Show me." We all went down to the cave where the Batmobile was waiting.
I showed him all the new gadgets. "Press this button here on the door and the motorbike will come to you." I explained. "Brilliant."
"I have set the bike to go faster than a normal bike and it's black." Jase pointed to the motorbike.
"You can also call for the bike from the suit." I added. Bruce examined the bike and turned it on. He checked the breaks and the light.
"On the sides and front of the bike, there's a compartment, all three of them have a four-digit security code." Jase showed him.
"Batgirl has one as well." Jase added. "She installed a DNA kit and a computer on hers."
"And there is one more thing..." I said with a grin. I led Bruce further down into the cave and there stood a new Batwing.
"The jet wasn't on the list at Wayne Enterprises, no one will miss it." I shrugged. "Everything is connected to the Computer back here at the cave. Just press the green button near the left break on the bike and the computer menu will come up. When Alfred or Raine send you any info while you're travelling, it will automatically come up right in front of you." I tapped the glass on top of the handle bars.
I looked at my watch and I realised that I was due to be up at the watchtower. "I have to go. Come on Speedy Gonzales. We're on duty at the Watchtower." I said to Barry Allen, aka, the Flash as I got my "uniform" on.
"Oh yeah. Come on. Race you out of the cave." With that said he bolted up the stairs. I rolled my eyes and teleported myself out of the Batcave, as I put my mask on. We got there at the same time.
We got to the Watchtower and saw J'onn at the computers. "Hiya J'onn." I greeted the Martian.
"Good evening Flash, Tell." J'onn greeted us. My hero name is Tell. Short for Teleport.
"Anything interesting going on?" I asked.
"There is a robbery taking place in Star City but Green Arrow and Black Canary are handling it." J'onn replied.
I turned to Flash and asked, "want to hit the gym?"
"Yeah, why not." Flash shrugged. We were about to leave the control room when J'onn called out.
"Wait, there is a young woman in trouble in Metropolis. She is a telepath, I am not sure. I called Superman and he is flying there now. Go back him up."
"On it." I said and J'onn sent me and Flash down to Metropolis. Superman was hovering over the scene.
There was a woman about Raine's age and men in masks, and black clothing. They had tasers, and guns and baseball bats at the ready. They were not cops, they were Penguin's thugs. And the woman looked terrified…
"What are Penguin's thugs doing in Metropolis?" I asked Superman.
"Batman, Penguin's thugs are here in Metropolis, and they are going after a young woman." Superman said through the com.
"I'm on my way to Arkham now to talk to him now." Came Batman's reply.
"Now when you mean talk, I'm assuming talking with your fists." I half joked and as usual I didn't get a reply… At least not from Batman.
"You, my dear brother, have been hanging around Barry for too long." It was Raine.
"Hey!" Flash said pretending to be insulted. It's true, Barry and I have become good friends over the last few years.
Just then Raine came flying in to the scene. She was in her disguise, Electric. Storm clouds started to form and it was getting darker.
Electric landed in front of the woman who hid behind her. "Leave now." Electric warned Penguin's thugs and she gave them a light shock.
"We're not scared of you." One thug said. Clearly, he hasn't had a run in with my sister yet. I teleported to my sister's side and nodded my head to the sky towards Superman.
"What about him?" I asked them, causing them to look up. Superman folded his arms over his chest and waited.
"Oh Shit, this is a bad idea coming." A new thug said. He was shaking.
I took this opportunity to punch one of the thugs in the face. Flash ran past and grabbed the woman and got her to safety.
Another thug tried to punch me, but I teleported out of the way and he stumbled. I swung around and kicked him in the face.
Superman picked the fallen thugs as I took them down one by one. "I see the training with Batman helped." Electric commented as she laid a punch on another thug who ran towards
"You were right, he knows far more than I thought." I said as I kicked the last of the men and now all the thugs were down and unconscious.
"Ethen, we are bringing a dozen of Penguin's men. I assume that they escaped from Arkham." I sent to Ethen.
"Yes, only hours ago." Ethen replied. Superman, Flash and I carried the thugs back to Gotham and back in to Arkham. Electric took the woman to the Watchtower.
"Dad, Electric is bringing in a woman who has been chased by Penguin's thugs, can you give her check-up?" I asked my dad.
"Of course." Was his reply.
When the thugs were safely back in Arkham, we all went back to the tower. When we got there J'onn was there waiting for us.
"She cannot talk. She uses telepathy to talk to people. She can also use her mind to control things around her. Her name is Samantha Wells." J'onn explained.
"Why were Penguin's thugs after her?" I asked.
"Penguin wanted her for her powers." Batman's voice came from the hallway, making me jump.
"I think you do that for fun." I growled at him.
"She said that people have been after for years, her parents have been able to protect her until now. She ran away from her parents' home at the age of eighteen. She tried to ask the Justice League for help but she couldn't scream…" Raine's voice made me jump.
"You have been around Batman for too long." I growled at my sister. I don't like people making me jump. Raine just grinned at me.
I went to the hospital bay and saw my father packing his doctor bag up. "How are you feeling?" I asked her in a gentle voice.
"I'm alright now." She replied in my thoughts. Samantha was beautiful, she had bright skin, blond hair and green eyes, she was the same height as Raine, maybe a little a couple of inches shorter.
"Can you tell me how you got your powers?" I asked her. "It's okay if you don't want to…" I quickly added.
"I hadn't been able to talk since I was born really, I was taught sign language… One day I was playing in the park when I fell and hit my head. After a week of hitting my head on the pavement, I was able to move objects and talk with my mind…"
When I was fifteen a boy came up to me and started flirting with me, I accidently spoke to him with my mind… He told his parents who were scientists… It didn't take long for word to spread about my powers."
"No one can get you here, I can promise you that." I said.
"People have been after Electric when they found out about her powers…" I explained.
"She told that you are her oldest brother…"
"Yes, I'm the oldest out of five. The doc over there is my dad." I said and my dad smiled warmly at her.
"Are your parents still alive?" Dad asked her.
The woman nodded in reply.
"When you are well rested up, we can take you to them if you like." I suggested and her smile widened and she nodded her head frantically and leaped in to my arms. I took it as a thank you.
Samantha, who prefers Sam, slept for an entire day. When she woke up Superman and I took her to see her parents. It turns out that she doesn't live that far from Clark Kent's farm.
When we found their house Sam's parents opened the door to our knock and her mother screamed in joy and pulled Sam in to her arms and cried.
Sam's father shook Superman's hand and then mine and thanked us over and over. We stayed or a little bit and then left the family to it.
We went to visit Clark's mother who also welcomed her son with a hug. She gave me a warm hug as well and then she got us a cup of coffee.
Martha Kent has got to be the gentlest, kind woman and mother I have ever met. She can make you laugh. Clark has got to be lucky to have a mother like her.
We stayed for a while until J'onn called us back up.
"Bye Ma." Clark hugged and kissed her cheek. I gave her a hug and a warm smile.
When we got to the Watchtower J'onn explained what is happening. "A massive break-out in Arkham. Batman has requested the help of the Justice League."
"Batman or Electric requested?" I asked going over to the teleport pad.
"Both." J'onn said and pushed the button.
I ended up in old Gotham and next to Batman, Flash, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Black Canary and Aquaman. Superman, J'onn and Electric were hovering above us. We were waiting at the main entrance of the gate. Clouds began form over our heads. I grinned. It's good to have my sister back on the team.
The criminals stopped when they saw us standing there. Some ran back in other stood their ground.
"Oh shit." A few of them said.
"JUSTICE LEAGUE…" Superman called out to us.
We waited for the word…
"GO!" With that we raced towards them…
I'm so so so sorry for the wait.
I hope you like it…
Please review…
Ethen is next.
