Third chapter. And thanks to buthoel for telling me when Young Justice is gonna air again
"They're what?" Batman asked and looked at Superboy "you let them get away with the other group?"
"I did, but it was the safest choice. We had no idea how the gas would react to anything, plus if we'd gone in there, we could be gone too!" he yelled and Batman looked at him.
"You do realize this means they might be in another end of the by now? We have no idea where they might have taken the others or how to pursuit. All we can do is wait…"
"I realize that, but what about the bio-ship? Can't it track them or something?" Superboy asked.
"We have no idea if it can, or how far away they are, like I said, they could be in another galaxy by now"
"Why'd you even let them go?" Superman asked and looked at him.
"I was thinking it was too risky to just burst in. It doesn't happen often, but sometimes I get this feeling that violence won't solve anything. I was thinking about the rest of the team's welfare. Like I said, we had no idea how the gas would react" he looked at Batman.
"How can you know it wasn't just a regular sleeping gas?" He asked and looked at Superboy.
"As far as I could tell, Aqualin and Lovestruck had fallen asleep first, then Nightwing and Robin. The gas wasn't strong enough to make Miss Martian fall asleep with the way they'd put it into the room, so she needed a direct dose"
"Implicating that the gas was designed to knock out creatures and aliens with Danian genes. Then your decision not to engage in battle might have been the best"
"How?!" Lagoon boy yelled and looked at Batman "M'Gann and the others are gone! We have no idea where they are, who took them or how to can save them! How is that the best option?" Batman narrowed his eyes and looked at Lagoon boy.
"The fact that you can stand here and tell me that. The gas could have exploded if it had expanded rapidly, which it would have if Wondergirl had punched a hole into the wall. Or you could have been knocked out too. Worst case scenario, everyone in the facility could have died" Lagoon Boy calmed down and looked into the floor.
"Neptune's beard" he mumbled angrily to himself and walked away.
"But… we are going to able to save them… right?" Wondergirl asked in a shy tone and Batman looked at her.
"We will try our best. Both Lovestruck and Aqualin have high priorities to the League, not just because they're part of the Justice league and the Team, but also because they are princesses of another species. If they got kidnapped, it could trigger a war between Dania and the kidnappers"
"And since the league has an alliance with the Danians, we would get involved too…" Superman said.
"Meaning Earth itself could become a target and therefore an intergalactic war could be at hand " Batman said and turned around "hit the showers, you're done for today"
The woman stood and looked at them with big green eyes. Her eyes were calm and they dropped their guard instantly. She looked at them and walked closer, making them putting up their guard again.
"I come in peace" she said and raised a hand, one with only three fingers. Nightwing looked at the hand and then at the woman's face.
"No nose… you're a… Danian right?" he asked with a slurred voice. She nodded and walked closer to him.
"Indeed I am" Nightwing now noticed that her hair was red and got confused.
"But can't they only have blonde, black and brown hair?" he asked and she looked at him.
"It's because of a genetic mutation. It's a rare one, but it can occur" she looked at the two boys "you are not having any pain? We tried to move you as gently as possible, but you resisted when we removed Ca' emen and Ja'kie from your grip. We have placed them and the Martian in another room" she said and Robin looked up.
"You're… Delia right?" he asked and she looked at him in surprise.
"How do you know my name human?" she asked and walked over to him. He now noticed that both him and Nightwing had been placed on beds and looked at the woman in front of him.
"Jackie told me about her family not long ago… could you lead us to the girls?" he asked and she shook her head.
"No I am truly sorry. But the princesses are not allowed male company of any sort. Especially not if they are human" she said and looked sad.
"Would it help to show you this?" Nightwing asked and she turned around. He pulled out his ring and she widened her eyes. Robin did the same and she looked at the two rings in confusion.
"You are their ring bearers? Then I am truly sorry for removing you from the princesses. I will show you to them immediately" she said and bowed to them "please keep the rings on while I show you to them, so that my fellow Danians will not think of me as a traitor"
"How come you can speak and understand English?" Robin asked and got up. He had gotten a small chain for the ring about three months ago, and now put the chain around his neck.
"It is believed, that the Danians and Humans, are related far out as species go… but the main reason is that we can talk many languages, so that it will be easier to invade to infiltrate a planet and it's people" she had a very soft voice and Robin felt his eyelids going heavy just by listening to it.
"Why?" Nightwing asked and followed Delia. He held out his ring for a group of suspicious Danians who bowed the second they saw the rings.
"Like you must know, being so close to the princesses, we are a very peaceful race. We have obtained this peace for many centuries now, because we get to know the habits and laws of other planets. When the planet then comes to our planet for a visit, we know how to treat them properly. The fact that we invade them is well known, so we don't have to be secretive about it. The only planet we are currently infiltrating who does not know we are there, is Earth. Mostly because Earthlings have this weird vision, that all aliens are evil" she said and stopped up "the girls are in here. Please take note that we've dressed the princesses in their traditional clothes and-"
"Delia, there's no reason to be so formal with these two!" they heard a male voice say. A tall blonde male with blue eyes came walking towards them, smiling.
"Derek" she said and smiled herself "but they are ring bearers you know what that means do you not?" she asked and he wrapped and arm around her waist.
"Of course I do! But see, they are just perfectly normal earth boys. They're not royal in any way and probably not even that high in the social ranks. Unless of course mom was serious and Bruce adopted multiple boys" he looked at the two boys and smiled.
"We are adopted into the Wayne family, yes. So you're Derek huh?" Nightwing asked and reached out a hand "nice to finally meet you" he noticed that Derek was pretty tall, a little taller than Batman.
"You must be Carmen's ring bearer! Boy scout right?" Derek said and took his hand "now that's not an Earth name as far as I can remember. And if you don't want to tell me your real name, then have no worries. Your real name will have no value to any Danian here or on Earth and we won't tell anybody. Plus I would need to know my future brother in law's name, right?" he smiled brightly and Nightwing laughed.
"I guess you have a point. Dick Grayson, nice to meet you"
"Likewise, hope you're taking good care of my little sister" Derek said and looked at Robin "you must be Jackie's ring bearer then?" he said and reached his hand out.
"Yes, my name's Tim Drake" he shook his hand and noticed how strong a grip Derek had.
"Nice to meet you Tim, my name's Derek Ericson I hope you'll both find Dania to your liking" he said and wrapped his arm around Delia "this is my lovely wife Delia, the newest addition to the Ericson name" he said and nuzzled their noses together. She giggled and looked at the two boys in front of her. She was about one head shorter than Derek and looked tiny compared to him.
"I'm sorry if I was to formal right before. The whole royal thing's still a little new to me so…" she said and Robin noticed a change in her voice. Before it had been strict but soft but now it was only soft. Derek smiled at her.
"Well we should get going. Giselle's probably hungry" he said and Delia smiled.
"She probably is" Delia said and walked off with Derek. Nightwing and Robin could hear them talking all the way down the hall and looked at the curtain in front of them.
"Well, this is where the girls are supposed to be" Nightwing said and looked at Robin "you want to go in first?" he asked and Robin gulped.
"Why not you?" he asked and Nightwing smiled jokingly.
"Just to see if you were brave enough" he said and pulled away the curtain and looked in. Jackie, Carmen and M'Gann were still asleep and Nightwing walked over to Carmen and looked at her. He gently caressed her cheek and Robin looked at him.
"She's so beautiful… isn't she?" Nightwing asked and she breathed out heavily. He leaned down and kissed her forehead gently.
"I wouldn't know…" Robin said and looked at Jackie. Her hair was spread out to all sides on the bed and her mouth was slightly open.
"You're probably right, as far as I can tell, you're in to blondes" Nightwing and looked at Robin.
"What do mean?" he said and raised his head fast.
"I can see it on the way you look at her, plus you two were holding pinkies while Lovestruck and I were telling about the mission"
"We always hold hands, you know that!" he said in a husky voice so he wouldn't wake the girls up. Suddenly Jackie moved and started making pained noises and the both looked at her.
"Tim… no… don't" her face was pained and Robin walked over to her. Nightwing looked slightly worried and walked over to her too.
"Don't what Jackie?" he asked and Robin looked at him.
"Don't… don't… die" her voice hitched and she gulped. Tears streamed down her face and Robin looked up at Nightwing.
"Is she having some kind of nightmare?"
"Don't know, but you'd better try and wake her up" he said and walked back to Carmen. Robin looked at Jackie who still had pained look in her face and he shook her gently.
"Jackie come on, wake up. I'm right here" he said quietly and she seemed to calm down a bit. She still didn't wake up and he looked at Nightwing.
"Try harder" he said and looked at Carmen. He leaned down and kissed her on the lips, taking away her air.
#well I can't do that!# Robin yelled in his mind and looked at Jackie. The pain was returning to her face and he panicked slightly. He shook her again, this time a little rougher.
"Jackie wake up! I'm not dying, I'm right here" he kept on shaking her and her eyes opened up a bit. He stopped shaking her and she whipped her eyes open and took a deathly grasp around his neck. He could hear she was crying and patted her on the back. She had hiccups and was crying harder than on the first night she had slept in Wayne Manor.
"Hey it's okay. I'm alright, you were just having a nightmare" he said to calm her down. It didn't work as much as he'd hoped, but she calmed down a bit.
#me dying is worse than War on Dania?# he thought to himself and she hugged him tighter.
"Jackie… can't… breathe" he managed to say and she let go of his neck.
"I-I-I'm s-s-s-so s-s-sorry" she stuttered out and wiped her eyes. She noticed something was wrong and looked at her clothes. She was wearing a loose skirt made out of folded fabric with a matching top, both in the same light brown color. Her arms were clad with four bracelets, each connected with a piece of long piece of fabric. On top of that she was wearing a small necklace with blue gems on.
"Wow… you look beautiful" Robin managed to say and she looked at him and blushed.
"Why am I even wearing this?" she asked and got out of the bed. When her feet touched the floor she looked down like it had hurt her "no way…" she said breathlessly and looked up at Robin. They would hear someone gasp from their side as looked to see both Lovestruck and Nightwing gasping for air.
"Took… long enough" he breathed out and laughed. She looked at him with a glare that could make even Batman proud.
"Don't… ever… do that… again!" she said and looked at Jackie. She stopped breathing out loud and her eyes widened "what the" she looked down herself and noticed she was wearing similar clothes, but hers were in a light blue color and she didn't have the fabric on her arms. It had been moved and was connecting the top and skirt together. She looked at her arms and noticed she was wearing two bracelets intertwined with each other with the same blue gems as the ones on Jackie's necklace. She looked at Jackie and the two boys noticed the horror in their eyes.
"No way" Jackie said and looked at Robin "where are we?" she asked and he looked at her in slight confusion.
"I think we're on Dania, why?" he asked and she looked back at Carmen. Carmen gulped and got down from the bed. She held her head and her eyes shone blue, indicating she was using the link she had with all Danians.
#I have awoken, someone please come and inform me about the current situation# she said and sat down again. Nightwing stood and looked at her. She looked into his eyes and felt herself blush. She looked away from him.
"What is it?" she asked and he put his hand under her chin and made her look at him.
"I'm totally feeling the aster. You look so beautiful right now…" he said and she blushed even more. Suddenly she whipped her head to look in Jackie's direction and Jackie turned her head too. They both got up and stood next to each other. Someone came into the room and they seemed to calm down.
"Greetings my princesse-" the woman who'd just entered the room looked at the two boys and looked like she was about to attack when she noticed the rings. She bowed quickly and turned her attention back to the princesses.
"Sorry my princesses, I did not know we had taken your ring bearers with us…" she said and bowed again.
"We don't care about your excuses, we want to know why we're here" Carmen said and straightened her back.
"Yes you see… maybe I am not the right one to tell you this, so please, follow me" she said and bowed yet again.
"How about the M'Gann?" Jackie asked and looked back at Miss Martian, who'd been dressed in the same type of clothes as Carmen and Jackie.
"We will show her to you once she wakes up" the woman said and took out an arm "please follow me, I will lead you to the Da'jeen… she will explain everything" she said and gulped. Carmen and Jackie nodded and followed.
#Is the link still up?# Jackie said in her head and Carmen nodded. Nightwing and Robin followed close behind them and Nightwing took a hold of Carmen's arm and made her walk right next to him.
#good then, you have noticed it too, right?# Jackie asked and Carmen nodded again.
#yes, something's wrong… why are they using the underground tunnels?# Carmen said.
#we're underground? How can that be when I can look out the windows?# Nightwing asked and Carmen moved her hand to hold his.
#it's because this department is on the edge of a cliff. But that's not the point. Why are they using the tunnels when they are only to be used in case of an extreme emergency?# she said and intertwined their fingers #I don't like it one bit#
#we'll ask grandma once we see her. I bet she's got all the answers# Jackie said and looked back to look at Carmen.
#yeah… she might# she answered and looked down into the ground.
"The Da'jeen is just beyond this door" the woman said and guided them through another curtain. Carmen took a deep breath and Jackie stepped behind her.
"Grandmother you must-" Carmen stopped in mid sentence when she saw who was sitting in the room.
"Greetings Carmen. How are you after your trip?" Caroline asked and looked at her daughter and stood up from the throne she'd been given "is something wrong?"
"Where's grandma!?" Carmen yelled.
"Calm down Carmen. Have you not been informed about the current situation?" Caroline asked and put a hand on Carmen's shoulder.
"Situation? What's going on?" Carmen asked and Caroline sighed.
"Maybe you should sit down" she said and led them into the room. She looked at Nightwing and her eyes got full of surprise "Dick? Is that you?" she asked and he smiled.
"It sure is. It's nice to see you again Carol" she said and she pulled him into a hug.
"My you've grown" she let go of him and looked him over "last time I saw you, you went here on me" she said and held her hand just beneath her chest. She now noticed the boy Jackie was standing next to and raised an eyebrow.
"Well if it isn't Tim. How are you?" she asked and went over to him "my you also look like you've grown"
"You know Tim?" Jackie asked and looked at her mother "how?" she looked at Robin and blinked.
"I was at your house some time ago… back when I got the ring" he said and Caroline looked from Tim to Jackie.
"He's your ring bearer? Well, I can't say that I am unhappy about that" she said and walked back to her throne.
"Where can we sit?" Robin asked and Jackie pulled him further in. Suddenly a woman came in with big pillows floating in the air.
"You can use these" she said and made the pillows land in the ground in front of the throne. Tim sat down on one and it suddenly levitated. He looked around in shock and Jackie giggled.
"They're designed to float, so don't worry" she said and smiled at him. Carmen looked at her mother and was a lot more serious.
"Is something going on we should know about mother?" she asked and Caroline sighed.
"First of all… I have something you need to know… it's about why I haven't been on earth for roughly a year. As the woman leading you here said… I am now the Da'jeen… meaning that Carmen is now Queen and Jackie Princess… it also means that your grandmother is dead" Jackie gasped and Carmen looked into the ground. Robin took Jackie's hand and squeezed it lightly.
"Mother… why are we using the emergency tunnels?" Jackie asked and looked up.
"That's even more unpleasant than the last news… first of all, I have to apologize for bringing you here, but the Danian people need their royalty more than ever before… have you had any reality dreams lately Jacqueline?" she asked and Jackie widened her eyes.
"I had one earlier… and one last year… so which one was true?" she asked and Caroline looked at her with sadness in her eyes. She looked into Jackie's eyes and then closed her eyes.
"It's the first one" she said.
"No! No it can't be! How, when, who, why?!" she yelled and almost fell off her pillow. She was panicking and Robin looked at her in concern.
"What is it Jackie?" Nightwing asked and Robin looked at him.
"When she moved into Wayne manor… Jackie had a dream in which… Dania was at war…" he said and Carmen looked from him to her mother.
"What?" she asked in disbelief "who would even start a war against us?" she said and Caroline sighed.
"It's not a big surprise… it's an interspecies war… the four-fingered are battling the three-fingered" she said and Carmen looked at her.
"This all started when grandmother died, right?" she asked and Caroline nodded.
"It did. It was a small thing that triggered it all… the mere death of your grandmother triggered it all. It was due to the fact that Delia didn't become Da'jeen, even though she was married to the prince and was pregnant with his child. The three-fingered said it was because we did not trust the three fingered and wanted a four fingered on the throne. Your previous admirer started it all Carmen" Caroline said and looked at Carmen who looked up.
"Admirer?" is there something you haven't told Carmen?" Nightwing asked and looked at her. She sighed and looked at him.
"His name's Ethan… he thought I was the one destined for him, and would never leave me alone. This was during the two years I spent on Dania after being brainwashed by the Joker… I really didn't like him"
"But he kept on bothering you?" Nightwing asked and she nodded.
"Then he found out a human had my second ring… I remember how he said the word 'human' when I told him… his face was a big give away on how he felt about it too. He was so sure you had stolen the ring somehow… I think he might kill you if he sees you" she said and looked into the floor "so he accused the royals of distrusting half of the population? No surprise there…"
"Why?" Robin asked and looked at Carmen.
"I told him the truth. I told him all about what had happened on earth, who I'd lived with and how I felt. He said words that day that I don't even want to repeat. I think he hated me after that"
"He did. He also told everyone about your relationship to the humans. The almost every three-finger is on his side. So we have quite the army to defeat. That's why we wanted you two here… the two princesses…"
"The two girls that haven't lost their Ha'jeel yet" Carmen said. Nightwing and Robin looked at each other in confusion and Jackie leaned in to Robin's ear, having called down.
"It's the same thing as virginity" she whispered and Robin blushed heavily. Carmen leaned in on Nightwing and told him the same thing and he looked at her.
"So if I take it away from you, you don't have to fight?" he said and Caroline coughed hard.
"It does, however, you should not talk about something like that in front of my mother" she said and blushed herself.
"Besides, as long as she has her Ha'jeel, she can use her powers with unlimited strength. When the Ha'jeel is lost, she will reach her power level and will never get stronger" Caroline said and blushed. She coughed a little again and Jackie looked at Robin.
"So when Danians… do it, they basically take away the ability to get stronger?" he asked and Jackie nodded.
"That's why mom avoids battle whenever she can. She's just as strong as she was when Derek was born"
"And I was only twenty back then, and I am forty-five now" she said and Tim looked at her.
"You don't look like you're a day over twenty-five" he said and Caroline smiled.
"I like him more and more by the minute" she said and Jackie punched Tim in the gut lightly with an elbow.
"Keep talking like that, and you'll be her new favorite soon to be son-in-law" she said and winked at him.
"We should get back to the capital mother. We need to tell the team and the League that we're here, and not somewhere else being kept as hostages" Carmen said and looked at Caroline.
"You can contact them from these tunnels. We'll be leaving for the capital in the morning, you should all rest first and… who is this young lady?" she asked and looked at the curtain. The others looked back too.
"My name is M'Gann M'orzz" she said and Nightwing looked back at Caroline.
"She's part of the team" he said and Caroline nodded.
"The Martian… you were extremely hard to put to sleep you know. I apologize for it of course… but we couldn't take any chances and leave witnesses behind.
"You still did. We had another squad on the outside" M'Gann said and stepped into the room "I know they will be furious if they find us"
"Which is why we have to contact them as soon as possible, or the three-fingered might use that anger to get them on their side" Nightwing said and Carmen looked at him.
"I think I know where there is a contact machine. I can lead you to it" she said and the pillow landed on the ground. She got up and Nightwing did the same.
"We'll come with" Jackie said and got down from her pillow too. Robin looked at her for help and she levitated him off. The pillow fell to the ground.
"Sure thing" Carmen said and bowed to her mother "is there anything else we need to know mother?" she asked and stood up straight again.
"Yes… it's the Moon Festival tonight… but I doubt we'll have it since the war is on" she said and sighed. Carmen looked at her and sighed too.
"Maybe we can hold a miniature edition of the party?" she said and Caroline looked up.
"Maybe we can" she said and smiled "Now, you should go and contact your friends, before they invade Dania too" she waved them off and Carmen and Jackie bowed. They walked out of the room and Nightwing took Carmen's hand once again.
"Do you want to talk now?" She asked him and he shook his head.
"No, I'll talk to you, after we end this war" he said and smiled at her. She smiled back weakly and looked into the floor.
"So what's the current situation?" M'Gann asked and Carmen looked at her.
"We have a war here on Dania, and my mother took us, well me and Jackie, to help end it. She brought you along so there wouldn't be any witnesses. And it's an interspecies war, meaning its Danians against Danians" she sounded very serious and M'Gann nodded.
"What about the others, have they got any clue that we're here?"
"No… and I'm not even sure that the communication devices are functional… but there is one other way to reach them, but I'll only use it as a last resort" she said and held her free hand under her chin.
"Why?" M'Gann asked and Carmen sighed.
"It's dangerous… it's a simple idea, but I haven't really tested it yet... I think if maybe we can combine our telepathic powers, you, me and Jackie, we'll be able to reach Earth. We're not as far away as it may look, only about three quarters of a galaxy away. Danians have a strong telepathic ability, and for some reason we can strengthen the powers of Martians. But I have never tried it myself before, so I don't know how it will work"
"And if it goes wrong?" M'Gann asked, almost afraid of the answer.
"If it goes wrong… we could end up either melting our minds together or completely erasing them" she said and Nightwing squeezed her hand.
"Then there's no way I'll let you do it. Nah ah. No, nein, nada!" he said before she could even reply.
"Then if we can't contact the others? What if the three fingered decide to contact them, and say that the four fingered have gone mad, and even brainwashed us? There are only three from the team that knows about the finger thing, and I didn't even explain it to them properly. We could end up fighting against the rest of the team Nightwing! And I'd rather take my chances than having to fight them! They're freaking kids!" she yelled and let go of his hand "you know how I feel about unnecessary damage!" he looked at her in shock.
"I know… I'm sorry…" he looked ahead and she calmed down.
"Besides… if I can feel something goes wrong, I will end the contact… besides, we could send a messenger if everything goes wrong"
"Why just not send one right away?" Nightwing asked and she looked at him.
"Because we are stretched thin here. Since we are leaving tomorrow, I suspect that most of the Danians that had been dispatched here already have gone home to D'malia. I have a feeling that there's only about seven danians here beside me and Jackie"
"And who would they be?" Robin asked and Jackie looked at him.
"Well, our mom, Delia, the woman who brought us the pillows, Derek, Giselle plus the two more. Everyone, besides Derek and Giselle helped in getting us here" Jackie looked at Carmen "and looking at the number, I'd say that the three we don't know are Suppressers, trained in mental combat and deadly with their weapons… mom would've taken them with her to make sure she could have as many soldiers go back at one time and strengthen the soldier power back at the capital" she said in a serious tone that scared Robin.
"So sending just one of them?" he asked and Jackie looked forward.
"If they knew we were one member short, they would attack us brutally with no mercy whatsoever…" she said and looked back at him "they would even kill Giselle to make sure no royal would survive"
"Who's Giselle?" Nightwing asked and looked at Jackie.
"She's our niece. Our six month old niece" Carmen said and Nightwing looked at her with wide eyes.
"How could a peace loving ever do something like that?" he asked and she sighed.
"How could they not see a war coming?" she asked back and stopped up "this is where the communication center is" she said and walked in. Nightwing walked right behind and stopped up when he saw how old the tech was.
"This looks like it hasn't been used for fifty years" he said and looked around. Everything looked rusty and there were webs everywhere.
"You have spiders on Dania?" he asked and Carmen looked at him.
"We don't. But we do have animals that make webs" she said and walked over to one. She touched it lightly and something moved in it. It crawled down and Robin stepped back.
"What is that?" he asked and Carmen showed it to him. It was something he could almost identify as a spider, but it only had six legs and had reptile like eyes. It also was the size of an average lizard and was a dark green color.
"They have no name, we call them Ha'jos" she said and the small creature looked at her "it means unnamed…"
"But doesn't that give them a name?" Nightwing asked and walked over to Carmen and looked at the small thing "fascinating" he said and put their hands together. The Ha'jos crawled onto his hand and looked up at him.
"They're said to know a person just by looking at them. And they can predict if their future will be happy" she smiled and the Ha'jos crawled longer up Nightwing's arm. He intertwined his fingers with Carmen and pulled her closer.
"So, is our future going to be happy?" he asked and she looked at the small Ha'jos. It changed color into a light blue and she smiled.
"Yours will. It can only predict the future of one person at the time… so you will be happy" she said and put her head to his chest.
"Why not let it see if yours will be happy too?" he asked and she nuzzled her head.
"What if isn't? Even though we're supposed to be together, who says it's in the near future. They can only see about six or seven months into the future" she said and he looked slightly confused.
"Well, then let's contact the team, shall we?" he asked and she nodded.
"Let's" she turned away from him and tried to escape his grip but he held her around the waist. She looked at him and he smiled.
"I won't let go" he whispered into her ear and she blushed. She looked back at the big computer and turned it on.
"It's not even holographic, how old is this thing?" Nightwing asked and put his head on her shoulder.
"It's from when Humans invented the first gun. We never studied in weapons to hurt, so we have advanced electronic equipment. We were always about 200 years ahead of you, if I remember history correctly.
"Well, it's certainly old then… are we sure it works?" M'Gann asked and Carmen looked at it. She put her hands on it and widened her eyes.
"It's been upgraded… it's up to date tech, with an out dated holder…" she looked up at it and smiled "we'll definitely be able contact Earth with this" she said and her arms were wrapped in metal and she looked at the screen.
"Kir'ima la pio" she said and the screen lit up in a blue light and a picture of Earth appeared "Kir'ima Justice League" the screen zoomed in and a picture of the Watchtower appeared.
"What's she saying?" Robin asked and looked at Jackie.
"She said; contact 'Blue Planet' and contact 'Justice League'" Jackie smiled and looked at the screen.
"Okay… La pio means Blue planet then?" he asked and she nodded.
"Yup"
"Shut it you two… I'm working here" Carmen said in a sharp tone and Jackie put a hand over their mouths. The screen changed and a picture of Captain Atom appeared.
"Captain Atom he… Nightwing, Lovestruck? You are okay?" he asked and Carmen nodded.
"We are fine. The League has nothing to be worried about. We were not abducted… just transported you could say"
"But we got a distress call from you six days ago!" he said and Carmen looked confused.
"Six days… how long have we been gone?" she asked.
"Almost two weeks"
DUN DUN DUUUUUN! XD
That was Chapter three. What do you think?
