Hall of Justice

July 4, 2010, 14:00 EDT

The Hall of Justice is big. I mean, really big. Only a few people showed up and some are wearing costumes as Flash, Batman and Superman. Some were even taking their pictures. I took out my camera and try to squeeze in, just to get a picture of the famous heroes with their sidekicks.

As I take a picture, people were talking indistinctly and are trying to get the sidekicks attention. "Is that Batman?" One of the tourists said.

Then a girl said. "I see Flash and Flash, Jr!"

But another one disagrees. "His name is Speedy."

"Speedy is Green Arrow's sidekick." Another one said.

"Well that makes no sense." I chuckled a little bit and continued on taking pictures. Liana and Fabian are so thrilled about these pictures that I took. They went inside the Hall and I studied the pictures. So far, so good.

The streets are not busy anymore. I was busy with the pictures and then I was lost. I looked at the street and realized that I am not in the street where the Capitol Building is. My Uncle and my brother are going to kill me.

I see a smoke on top of the buildings. Where did that smoke come from? I could hear Fire Alarms and Police Alarms and they are not that far from here.

"Help!" I followed the yelp and run to the corner. A building named Cadmus is on fire but only a small fire.

"Get us down!" Two scientists were waving their hands at the firemen who were busy putting out the fire.

"Stay put. We will get you out." The head fireman says. Then the floor which the scientist where, exploded. I went to the nearest building where I could get a better view.

Suddenly, Kid Flash arrived, swept both scientists and puts them on the rooftop. Kid Flash struggles, but the fireman says. "It's what his name is. Flash Boy!" The fireman says.

"Kid Flash! Why is that so hard?" He said.

"So smooth." I heard Robin say, and he is not far from here. He and Aqualad arrived and I turned myself invisible. Hope they could not see me.

"Does he always run ahead?" Aqualad said. "We need a plan. We-"A laugh cuts off and I glanced at the situation. Robin swings and helps Kid get inside to one of the floors.

Aqualad heads off and say, "I need to borrow that." The tattoo's in his arm glows and so as his water bearers. The water from the firemen followed his command and he twirls it, making a little water tornado.

He went to the scientists and said. "Step aboard now." He commanded and the scientists agreed quickly. They jumped to the water tornado and Aqualad stepped on the same floor where Robin and Kid Flash went.

He puts the scientists on the ground and left. What the heck is going on? Why did they go inside Cadmus? What's going on? First they were on the Hall with their mentors and now they are inside the Cadmus without their mentors. Okay, this is giving me a headache. I rubbed my head, maybe I can ease the headache.

I revealed myself and try to sneak in to Cadmus. I am so busted when my Uncle and my brother finds out. I thought to myself and shake my head.

Suddenly one of the scientists called me. He must have seen me. "Kid! Hey, come here." He says and I went to him. The firemen didn't seem to mind.

"Sir, are you okay? Do you need help?" I asked and the scientists glanced around. "Can you do me a favour? We left a file in the second floor and it is titled: Project Cadmus. Can you delete it for us? We can give you a card to get you inside." He hands me a grey card with his name: Ray Johnson. His glasses were shaking and his black hair is covered with sweat.

"How can I get inside?" What am I doing? Why did I accept his favour? I remember Hal told me not to crazy things for strangers. But this guy is very persistent and I think he really needs my help. I'm so stupid.

"On the right side of the building, there is a black door and there is a card swiper. Swipe it and you have to use the stairs to get the second floor. Thank you, kid. I'll make a distraction for you. The whole country owes you."

I nod quickly. The scientists started to groan but louder. "It hurts!" The firemen stopped working and attended the fake injured scientist.

I run to the right side of the building where there is an alley. A black door is locked and a card swiper is on my right. I swiped the card and it said: ACCESS GRANTED.

The door opened, revealing a batch of stairs. I quickly climbed and I went inside to the door that says 2nd floor. I kicked it open and the floor is empty. Only one computer is online. I hacked inside and one of the folders appeared and said: PROJECT CADMUS. I deleted the file successfully and I sighed in relief.

"Well that's over. I just have to get out of here so that Hal and Uncle John won't be furious." I say and I scanned the room. The elevator opens. "Okay, that's not supposed to happen. There's no electricity here." The elevator door opened, revealing an empty elevator. That's odd. Power shouldn't be running right now.

I looked at the elevator and there is a grappling hook tied on top. Someone's already been here. I scanned the line and it stopped at SB 26. I should follow it; the file is already deleted anyway.

I closed my eyes and teleported to the door. The door is already opened. Okay, weirdness is already creeping me out.

Inside the SB 26, is a long hallway. "Cadmus is officially one of the weirdest places I have ever been to." I say.

"Kid Wait!" I heard Aqualad yelled and I followed his voice. The ground seemed to shake and I saw these big creatures with small horned creatures on their heads.

Their horns glowed red and I could feel my mind is fighting something but it dissipated quickly. I caught a glimpse of Robin, hacking another door.

The door opened and another creepy room filled with those weird creatures in a tube is there. They are glowing with electricity or are they using this electricity for the building?

"This is how they hide they hide this massive underground facility from the world. The real Cadmus isn't on the grid, it generates its own electricity with these things. Must be what they were breed for." Kid Flash says.

Woah, Kid Flash is right. Cadmus is definitely hiding and I'm glad that I can see everything. I should probably tell Hal and Uncle John about this.

Aqualad continued, "Even the name is a clone. Cadmus may have created a new race by saving dragon teeth to the earth."

Robin added. "This Cadmus creates new life too." He went to the computer and hacked. "Let's find out why."

He typed something on the holographic computer. "These are called genomorphs. Woah, look at the stats on these things. Super-strength, telepathy, razor claws. These are living weapons!"

"They're engineering an army." Kid Flash said. "But for who?" Cadmus is so busted. How come the Justice League did not know any of this?

I rubbed my head again, trying to get everything in my head. I take a deep breath and let it out. "Calm down, Dani. I bet things wouldn't get much worse." I say quietly.

"-Project Kr. The files been encrypted. I can't-"Robin stopped and kept on pressing the holographic computer.

"Don't move!" Someone said. It was Guardian. I have heard about him from Hal and he was a hero. Now, he's a loser for working here.

And he came with those creepy genomorphs. Great. I better get out of here before things will get worse.

"Take them down hard!" Guardian yelled. I quickly went to the door and it was closed. Dang it! Then smoke scattered the room and I could hear Kid Flash, Aqualad and Robin fighting those genomorphs. I have to get to the other door.

The alarm goes on. I went to the door and find, Robin hacking. I waved my hand to the door, opening it. Robin's eyes widened.

"Dude! How did you do that? That was fast." Kid Flash commented. They went inside and I hopped along.

More and more of those genomorphs are coming. I closed the door and sighed in relief. Then I could feel that someone is watching me. That's where the famous sidekicks stared at me.
