Everyone began to stand up and stare at each other.
"Ugh how did she do that? I was about to tranq her and I suddenly felt pain in half my body." Robin said rubbing his arm.
"Yeah I was about to run away and look!" Wally said hopping over. His feet were tied with a cord; Agni tossed a dagger at his feet cutting it.
Richie stood up in a shadow. "She time stopped us I think." he said "She got me right before I shadow jumped."
The Team looked at the Rangers in surprise
"What do you mean she stopped time?" Artemis asked
Agni sighed "She's an arcane archer that means she's a wizard as well and unfortunately for us she happens to be an extremely powerful one. She is able to stop time for about five minutes in a 20 feet radius around herself. She even got Robin and Conner how else did you think she could get them?"
"But it takes enormous magic power to do that." Zatanna protested
Anna nodded "When you have what? 60 years I think, you're able to do it."
Agni walked over to Kaldur and Roy to help them up.
"Gosh why are you people so powerful? Is it that hard to be normal on your dimension" Wally complained
Agni looked away "When you live lives like we do it's be powerful and live or be weak and die. Also we have been training our whole lives for the thirtieth time. We have fought more battles than all of you put together times 4." Agni said exasperated "Do you think we enjoy being so powerful? Do know how much we want regular lives? Do you know what we would do for regular lives?"
Agni turned without giving anyone else another look and marched into the Bio-ship but Arty stopped him half way
"Thank you for finding me." She said and hugged him (though he did bend down some)
Everyone else piled into it and sat down. M'gann took off in silence. After a while Wally turned and looked at Agni.
"Look Agni I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that." Wally said
"Forget about it." Agni said without even turning his head to look at him.
"No I'm rea-" he stopped and turned around and felt Anna pulling him away.
"Leave him alone. He gets like this a lot." She whispered into his ear.
"You do know I could hear that, right?" Agni said
Anna rolled her eyes and returned to her seat
"So are we returning to Mount Justice?" Roy asked
Arty shook her head "We should stay. Abaddon has a bunch of hiding places somewhere around here." She said
"Guys we are being followed by something… or many things I'm not sure." Robin called
Agni was next to him in a split second. There was some kind of ghosts jumping in and out of shadows. Agni stared intently out the window.
"Were are being chased by wraiths." He said "About 10 of them I would say. Roy, Arty, Artemis and me will take care of them." Agni pulled his quiver and bow out of his bag and slung it over his shoulder "They can only be hurt by magic so this will be great training for your arcane archery. Is there a way out side of this thing?"
"I'll try to keep it steady for you." M'gann said opening the top of it.
They climbed to the top of the Bio-ship and saw black shadowy shapes chasing them.
"Hmmph I would have thought Abaddon would do better than this." Arty said reaching into her pocket and taking out a sling.
Roy cocked an eyebrow and looked at it curiously. "Aren't you were an arcane archer?" he asked
"Yes I am."
"Then where's your bow?"
"I'm a Halfling, how am I supposed to use a bow?"
"What's that little able to do?" asked Artemis pulling her own bow out.
Arty smiled and fit a pebble into it and looked at Agni for permission
"Nothing big." He said "There are civilians near by I think."
Arty frowned slightly then replaced with a large smile she spun her sling around a few times then flung the pebble into the air. They watch it go up into the air leaving a blue streak, it disappeared.
"What's that supposed to do?" Roy asked
Agni's eyes widened and he lifted his head and created a magical force around the Bio-ship.
"What are you worried about Agni?" Artemis asked
Agni just pointed up and began concentrating even harder.
Large boulders the size of a car's wheels began dropping from the sky leaving craters in the ground and crushing many of the wraiths. Agni held up the shield letting all the boulders to bounce off it and roll onto ground.
"Wow." Roy said watching the boulders fall
"Thanks a lot Roy." Agni said his shield faltered for a second letting a few boulders hit the Bio-ship he immediately got it back up and held it firmly with his power. Robins head peeked out of the interior and looked around at them curiously.
"Anything wrong?" he asked
"Only this psychotic midget trying to kill us!" Agni said finally releasing his shield.
Robin looked at all the wraiths slowly disintegrating on the ground as they flew over and laughed "Wow who did that?"
"Rocks fall things die." Arty said laughing evilly
From inside the Bio-ship they heard one thing
"I told ye she was a crazy loon." Connie hissed
A few days later.
Agni flew into the wall and slumped to the floor groaned.
"Why in the abysses name did you have to hit me so hard Conner?" He said rolling over onto his back and groaned again He looked at his side, there was a large piece of metal jutting out "Great just what I needed."
Conner walked up to him and helped him up. "We should take you to the doctor or something."
"Nah I'll be okay, lets get to the living room."
"Why?"
"Because Anna is there."
Conner helped him over to the living room and sat him down next to Anna who was reading a book, she didn't even look up.
"What happened now" Anna asked
"He might have accidentally almost sent me through a metal wall." Agni said
"Use a healing stone I feel like healing you again." She said
"But we don't have many with us and we don't want to use them."
"Then you might have a problem."
Agni rolled his eyes "I hate it when you're like that."
"What's a healing stone?" asked Robin who was watching the T.V.
Agni reached into his pocket and took out a light blue stone. "This is. He reached down and pulled the piece of metal out with only a grunt of pain. He crushed the rush and sprinkled it onto the wound; it almost straight away began to obviously heal and repair its self.
"You two should stop beating each other up everyday one of you is going to get seriously hurt." Richie said from the corner where he was playing cards with Connie.
Agni tossed the piece of metal into the trash and rubbed his side. "All better. I wish I brought more of these." He said
"Hey guys look at this!" Wally called from the T.V.
Roy, Kaldur, Artemis and Zatanna entered the room and M'gann floated through the floor
"What is it?" asked Arty walking into the room casually swinging her sling around.
"We're on T.V." Robin said
Everyone surged towards the T.V. and listened
"Many reports have been coming in of strange seemingly children, the oldest looking around 17 and the youngest only 4 have been around the city fighting these monsters that have been showing up lately. There have been several signs of battles and skirmishes all across the city. When we tried to interview one of them he promptly shot what seemed to be a crossbow at the camera but then apologized saying he thought it was some sort of weapon. He named himself the 'Blackranger' and said him and others will be staying in N.Y.C. for a while to defend it and fight the source of where it is coming from. It is being rumored that this strange person may be part of the Justice League. He also told us to send a message out that "if these monster are sighted anywhere do not engage them and to send up a red flare into the sky" and he or someone from a team he called the 'Rangers' or another more well known team called Young Justice will be sent to check it out. More reports are saying that these monsters have been showing up I several other cities including Gotham, Metropolis, Star City, Chicago, New Orleans and there have been a lot assaulting the Arkahm Asylum. Now to Bob for the weather.
Everyone turned and look at Agni
"What? What else could I have done? I think it was a smart idea. Now we have the commoners on our side."
"They are not 'commoners' they are civilians." Wally said
"They are not nobles nor do they have any high ranking, which makes then commoners." Said Richie
"And what are you kings?" Wally scorned
"Agni is a drow noble, Richie is the adopted son of a general, Connie is the son of the dwarven king, Arty is technically a halfling princess and Anna is the daughter of an elven duke who is also the High Wizard. So pretty close." Robin said
Everyone turned in surprise at Robin
"How do you know that?" Wally said
"They told me we were talking about it a few days ago." He said
"That doesn't give you the right to call everyone else commoners everyone is equal in this dimension." Wally argued
Agni sighed "Actually it does give us the right and if you're telling me that everyone is equal here then tell me: Why does your king sit in a big white palace surrounded by guards and the um… regular people defend themselves?"
"We don't have kings I think you mean president." Zatanna said
Agni nodded "Yes the president."
"Because he runs this country and…"
"So essentially he is a king?" Agni said
"No we the 'commoners' elected him, he didn't become the president for being the strongest or however you choose kings." Wally disagreed
"So do we, we pick our kings and when we are tired of him or his family we change it."
"Will you two stop fighting already what does it matter what he calls them?" Zatanna
"I do agree with Zatanna." Kaldur said
"Yes this argument is null and void. Let's go out patrolling or something." Agni said with a yawn
"Sure your majesty we'll just do whatever you want." Wally jeered before he walked out
Agni sighed and watched him go "What is his problem he's been like this all week. What did I do to him?"
"I think he's kind of angry about how powerful you are he thinks our dimensions heroes should be stronger then yours and he thinks that you act overpowered and like you higher than everyone else." Robin said poignantly
Agni raised an eyebrow and looked around at everyone "Really? Have I been acting high and mighty to all of you?"
"No not really I think there might be something else bothering him." Kaldur said.
"I'll go talk to him later then. For now I'm going out patrolling." Agni said standing up and going to his room
"Can I come?" Zatanna called
"Sure if you want." He yelled back
He walked to his room and pulled on his cloak and bow he also picked up his katana and slipped over the other shoulder. He stopped and looked into his mirror "Am I really acting like that?" he asked himself. He stared intently at himself for several seconds "I should really stop talking to myself."
"Ready to go Agni?"
"Yeah be right there." And with one last look he walked out pondering over Wally behavior and Robins words.
"Am I really beginning to act like that?" he whispered to himself before joining Zatanna in the front hall.
Sorry if I left it off in a bad place but no worries more tomorrow.
