New Team?
A massive crowd stands in front of a balcony connected to the Royal Palace. The voices of the people overlap but Vaelk can hear every word as if it was only one voice. Vaelk had told his allies that he will address the people about the attack on one of the small cities of Bialya. Vaelk walks out to meet his people where he is given cheers. He walks to the balcony and waves making the people cheer louder. With a gesture of his hand the people quiet.
"My fellow citizens, I report to you that at 19:00 on my orders the Dictatorship of Bialya was dealt a fierce blow!" States Vaelk making the people cheer and applaud.
"Death to Queen Bee!" Shouts a random citizen. His shout is followed by cheers of approval.
"For several months, our border has been attacked by the cowards of Bialya," says Vaelk making the people boo, "well now I say no more!" Cheers shake the ground.
"For too long have we sat back and allowed this… ant to mock and annoy us!" States Vaelk getting shouts of approval.
"And so I say in order for our safety and prosperity… we will take down this Queen Bee for our safe and secure… society!" States Vaelk making the people cheer and shout for war. Vaelk raises his fist that is copied by all the people.
"Worry not my people… I will protect my kingdom till my last breath." Says Vaelk as he looks at his citizens.
"Queen Bee seeks to take over our proud Nation... Will we allow it!?" Asks Vaelk with a majestic tone.
"Never!" Shouts the crowd.
"You will not allow it... I will not allow it." Says Vaelk as holds his fist up.
"For Vlatava!" Cheers the crowd. Vaelk walks through the curtain where he walks down the vast halls. As he walks his MagnaGuard steps behind him. As he walks through the halls he stops as his MagnaGuard activate their electro staffs. They turn to a dark corner while Vaelk glances at the corner.
"You are either very brave or very stupid to break into this palace." Says Vaelk as he can clearly see the intruder, even in the shadows. The MagnaGuard stand protectively near him.
"Not bad kid." Says the voice of a man. Then out of the shadows comes a tall, slender man, with long white hair. His armor is primarily black and gray, with goldenrod greaves and gauntlets. He wears a matching goldenrod mask with a black area that obscures the right half of his face, including his missing eye. He wears a utility belt with pouches, and sheaths for a sword and staff on his back.
"Deathstroke, have you come to play executioner?" Asks Vaelk with narrowed eyes. Deathstroke moves forward while prepared to strike at a moment's notice. Vaelk scans the man and knows he is a threat.
"Recommend termination of the subject known as Deathstroke." Says the Voice. Deathstroke stands in front of the teen while looking at his guards.
"Easy kid I've only come to talk." States the assassin. Vaelk turns to him fully.
"Talk mercenary." States Vaelk as Deathstroke smirks.
"You've been invited to join the Light." Says Deathstroke making Vaelk raise a brow. Deathstroke tells Vaelk about the people he would be working with and what he would need to do. Vaelk listens to the man but is looking through any data on the man in front of him. Needless to say he finds a lot on the man unfortunately for the merc.
"So… what do you say kid?" Asks Deathstroke. Vaelk looks at the man and thinks over his options for a second.
"Hmm, let me think… kill him." Says Vaelk as the MagnaGuards attack Deathstroke.
"Shit." States Deathstroke as he draws his blade and parries an electro staff with his sword. Vaelk scans the blade to learn that it is a high-frequency blade. He duels with the first MagnaGuard before he ducks under another who attacks from the left. He dodges two thrusts before being kicked back. As he lands on his back and groans, one MagnaGuard jumps up. Deathstroke widens his eye as the Drone comes down with its electro staff. Deathstroke rolls backwards to stand and dodges the attack.
"One down." Says Deathstroke as the Drone looks down to see a mine under it. The Drone is destroyed in an explosion. The two Drones then attack the mercenary with new moves, indicating adaptation. Deathstroke blocks one guard with his sword before jumping over a sweep from the left and kicking. Vaelk widens his eyes when the Drone slams into a wall and breaks apart.
"Scan detects higher biological function in the subject." Says the Voice as Vaelk uses X-Ray vision to see inside Deathstroke. He sees a chemical in the mercenary that is hard to identify. Deathstroke clashes with the last guard who spins its staff at high speeds before the two clash at high speeds. Suddenly the MagnaGuard jumps back and a rocket appears out of its arm. Deathstroke widens his eyes as the rocket hits in front of him causing an explosion that blows a hole in the building. The crowd gasp at the explosion before gasping again at the sight of Vaelk under attack.
"King Vaelk!" Shout the crowd in worry. Armed Guards move quickly to arm themselves as the fight goes on. Deathstroke parries the staff and binds it to the wall before beheading the Drone. He walks away but the Drone comes back at him, no head an all.
"What the-." Says Deathstroke as he blocks all the attacks but is shocked several times. He takes out his guns and fires. The Drone spins its staff around and blocks the bullets before Deathstroke runs up to it and kicks it down. As the Drone lands, its chest has flashing lights before it is destroyed in an explosion. Deathstroke walks out of the dusts like a badass.
"Well now… that just leaves you kid." Says Deathstroke as he points his sword at Vaelk. Vaelk looks to the crowd and back to Deathstroke.
"Well I suppose it does." Says Vaelk as he narrows his eyes at Deathstroke. Deathstroke dashes to the King as the crowd and citizens at home watch with panic and fear. Deathstroke swings down with his sword and the crowd widen their eyes. A clang is heard as Vaelk raises his arm. Deathstroke widens his eyes as the arm of Vaelk appears like his armor. Suddenly Vaelk turns into Genisys and the crowd cheer and roar to the heavens.
"Too bad… for you." Says Genisys as he pushes Deathstroke back into a metal wall that dents from the force. Deathstroke dodges left as Genisys punches the wall that dents further. Genisys aims his left hand at Deathstroke before the mercenary is hit with a beam of magic, tech, light (Lantern Light), and radiation from Captain Atom. Deathstroke flies back from the beam before rolling and firing his guns at Genisys. To Genisys the bullets are traveling in slow motion. He analyses the path of the bullets and the velocity before blocking them all with his hands. In Genisys's vision he sees the stress points, fracture planes, or weaknesses, physical or psychological, in all objects or persons around him. Deathstroke rolls to stand before he is grabbed by a construct in the form of a hand. Genisys slams him into a wall before doing so again.
"Projectiles detected." Says the Voice as shuriken fly from the dust. Genisys uses his Heat Vision to destroy the weapons before Deathstroke upper cuts him. Surprisingly, Genisys is thrown back from the force but recovers in the air and levitates. Genisys lands and blocks the blade several times before Deathstroke spins and cuts his chest. No blood comes from the wound due to the armor but the sword makes a diagonal scar on his armor. The scar is small but nevertheless it is there.
"What's wrong?" Asks Deathstroke in a tone that tells Genisys he has a smirk on his face.
"Not expecting that were you?" States Deathstroke.
"Yeah we've been tinkering in Biological Enhancements." Says Deathstroke as Genisys lands. Deathstroke twirls his sword before entering a stance.
"It won't help your chances." Says Genisys in a matter of fact tone. Genisys's eyes glow violet like a Martians but if you could look closely you would see robotic parts to them. (Think Nemesis Prime from Transformers The Last Knight.) Genisys takes off from his spot and grabs the face of Deathstroke before slamming him against the steel wall.
Deathstroke pushes Genisys off him but Genisys body shots him before unloading on the mercenary who is stuck against the wall. Deathstroke blocks a punch before kicking Genisys back. Genisys though levitates back to prevent himself from hitting the ground. He then slams into Deathstroke again but this time slams through several walls. From the dust comes a light that hits Deathstroke who grunts before hitting the ground and recovering. He draws his sword as Genisys flies towards him. Deathstroke swings his sword but the sword passes right through Genisys who shifts his density. Genisys grabs the throat of Deathstroke who gags.
"Fool, did you really think you could defeat me just by having an upgrade?" Asks Genisys as he squeezes. Deathstroke groans before slamming his fist in the face of Genisys. Genisys turns his head but electrocutes Deathstroke who then begins to freeze over. Acting quickly Deathstroke swings his leg over the arm that holds him before flipping Genisys over. However Genisys, who has such fast reflexes, slows his flips so that he is able to levitate off the ground. Deathstroke swings his sword at Genisys who blocks the attacks with his forearm blades.
"Last chance kid, join the Light to protect your people." States Deathstroke as his sword grinds against the forearm blades of Genisys. Genisys in response opens up his shoulder mounted guns, making the mercenary widen his eyes. From the guns comes thin lasers bolts that Deathstroke dodges but takes shallow cuts by them. Suddenly the mercenary is picked up by Genisys's telekinesis and slammed against the wall several times before he is thrown through a wall. As he flies in the air he is grabbed by a construct and pulled towards Genisys who catches him by the throat.
"My answer is no but I will take all the knowledge you have of the Light." Says Genisys as he grabs Deathstroke's head with both hands. His eyes glow violet as he seeks to enter the mind of Deathstroke. Deathstroke acting quickly drops several explosive pellets.
"Another time." Says Deathstroke as Genisys looks down and Deathstroke frees himself. The explosion shakes the area but Genisys levitates through the smoke, unharmed. Deathstroke runs down the hall as Genisys opens his eyes and gives chase. Several Drones fly around the area before attacking Deathstroke who skillfully dodges the attacks while cutting several down.
"There is nowhere to run." Says Genisys as the hall begins to shift and move around. The hall spins with Deathstroke standing on the ceiling.
"There is always a way out." States Deathstroke as he takes out a detonator. He presses the button and several explosions shake the area.
"Palace support systems… 10% functional and dropping." Says the Voice before Genisys looks to Deathstroke who jumps out a window.
"Your choice, save your people or let me get away… think about it hero!" Shouts Deathstroke. Genisys ignores the man and summons two hands made of energy to hold the building. He then summons several mini thrusters to further stabilize the building. The people clap for their hero and king. Suddenly the building creeks and shifts making the crowd gasp.
"Scan shows several points are breaking and destabilizing the building." Says the Voice. Genisys scans the building and sees the break points.
"If the building falls... causalities will be in the hundreds." Adds the Voice. As it finishes, a part of the building breaks off and plummets to the ground. Genisys sticks out one hand that is covered in a green magic formation. The slab stops before Genisys reverses time and the slab is put back in place. He then uses Heat Vision to weld it on. He then pushes the building until it is up right. Using his speed he moves from his spot and appears next to a pillar that falls slowly. He touches the pillar and magically puts it back together before doing the same to several other pillars. He then catches the building again and summons Drones to start welding the building in place while he holds it. The building begins to buckle making Genisys grip tighter.
"He's not going to make it." Says one of the civilians with wide eyes.
"He's going to make it!" Counters an elderly man with some sweat on his brow. Metal rises from the ground and slam into the building before being welded on. Slabs of rock and debris fall from the building as Genisys seeks to limit the damage. He uses his telekinesis to stop the falling debris as his Drones quickly work on the building.
"Palace support systems rising… 30%... 60%... palace support systems have reached sustainable levels." Says the Voice as Genisys lets go of the building and begins to use the Eye of Agamotto on the building which begins to rebuild itself in front of the people. Genisys lands at the podium where he is greeted by cheers and applause. He holds up a hand to silence the people.
"I would like to start off by apologizing for hiding my identity from you all." Says Genisys in a robotic voice.
"It gladdens me to see that you all accept me as I am… but my status as a hero will not interfere with my duties as a king." Swears Genisys.
"Long live the king!" Shouts the crowd and a chant begins. Genisys waves to the crowd as his MagnaGuard step behind him. They've fully repaired themselves from the battle. Genisys levitates off the ground and raise both hands, making the crowd cheer louder before he takes off in a sonic boom.
Mount Justice
Kori stands and looks at the sky, waiting for Genisys or Vaelk to come. She like everyone else had seen the news early this morning. Now the League is even more worried about Genisys. She has been hounded with questions by the other members of the Team but she has refused to divulge anything without permission from Genisys.
"Kori… is it true that you knew?" Asks Miss Martian who walks forward. Kori turns to the Martian and sighs before nodding her head.
"Why… why didn't you tell us?" Asks Miss M.
"It was not up to me to tell." Says Kori as the wind blows against her hair. Kori takes a hand and brushes her hair.
"But you knew and said nothing!" Growls Superboy as he walks up with the rest.
"As I said it was not my place to tell you and I do not regret that decision." Says Kori with some edge.
"We are supposed to be a team." Says Superboy making Kori turn to all of them.
"And yet none of you could accept that Genisys wanted to keep his identity a secret for a reason," says Kori while looking at them, "he is a king of an entire country and if his enemies were to discover that when he wasn't ready?" Their attention is broken when they hear sonic booms. They look to the sky as Genisys comes down in a nose dive before flipping and slamming his fist in the ground before standing. (Iron Man Landing)
"Are you okay?" Asks Kori as she hugs Genisys who looks at her.
"I am fine though some of my people were hurt in the explosion." Says Genisys as he looks at his girlfriend.
"Were there any casualties?" Asks Kori getting a head shake from Genisys.
"Negative, only minor injuries." Says Genisys as he looks to the others who frown.
"I sense that you are angry." States Genisys as he scans the others.
"Angry? Why didn't you tell us who you are?" Shouts Kid Flash.
"I had told you before that it was unimportant." Says Genisys.
"How can we trust you if you won't tell us about yourself?" Asks Robin with folded arms.
"That is something you must figure out yourselves." States Genisys.
"I have an obligation to my people and they come first… even over this team." Says Genisys.
"How can you say that?" Growls Superboy.
"Easily because I am a king while none of you are." Says Genisys.
"But aren't we friends?" Asks Miss M with a sad face.
"I wonder that myself." Adds Aqualad.
"We are a team but what happens outside of the team should not concern the other members." Says Genisys.
"So we should just not care like you!?" Snaps Kid Flash making Genisys look to him.
"Correct, you all allow your emotions to control you while I do not." Says Genisys.
"You fuss and moan about me not telling you my identity as if that is more important than protecting the people and earth," says Genisys as he looks at the team, "you all tell everything about yourselves to each other, never stopping to think what if the person next to you becomes your enemy."
"If that is how you feel than maybe you shouldn't lead this team." Says Robin with narrowed eyes.
"I never cared who was leader so if you wish for someone else to lead than I will happily step aside." Says Genisys.
"Enough!" Demands Batman as he steps up with Captain America. The teens look to the two heroes. Captain America puts a hand on the shoulder of Genisys before looking to the others.
"What's happened has happened, there is nothing we can do to change it." Says the Solider making Genisys surprised.
"But-." Says Kid Flash.
"Son, it's time to let it go and we have something to show you all." Says Captain America as he leads the team into the base. Kori latches onto the arm of Genisys with a soft smile on her lips. Genisys looks at her Kori sees a flicker of emotion in his eyes making her smile. As they enter the base, Genisys picks up several more heat signatures. He doesn't ever remember feeling these ones before.
"You'll be working with another team that SHIELD has assigned." Says Batman as he walks on.
"They too are young heroes but they are I need of a leader," says Captain America as he looks to the teens, "It's been decided that Genisys will lead the new team and Aqualad will lead this one."
"And I have no say in this?" Asks Genisys with folded arms. Kori leans on his shoulder.
"This is the best decision all around." Says Batman without glancing back at Genisys.
"I think we would be better under Aqualad, at least he trusts us." Says Kid Flash making Kori glare at him.
"Are you still crying?" States Genisys with no emotion.
"Enough." Says Captain America as they stop. Genisys looks at his new teammates.
"Hey guys, what's hanging?" Says a teen hanging upside down like a spider. Robin gawks at the sight while stuttering.
"Whoa are you a natural green?" Asks the teen with a laugh. Miss M blushes at the question. Suddenly a silver blur runs around the teens before stopping in front of them.
"Tag you're it." Says the Silver haired teen before he vanishes. Kid Flash gapes at the sight. Suddenly the silver haired teen is next to Kid Flash making the teen look to him but as he does the teen appears on his opposite shoulder.
"Kid Flash huh, not so fast are ya?" Asks the teen before vanishing again. However he yelps when he is picked up.
"You need to calm yourself." Says a telepathic voice making Aqualad's team look to the source. A beautiful long blonde haired teen levitates to the trapped sliver haired teen.
"Hehe, can you put me down… please?" Asks the silver haired teen making the teen girl sigh and drop him. Miss M looks at her but is caught by surprise when the girl looks to her and winks before putting a finger up to her lips and shushing her.
"You shouldn't try to enter my mind like that or something bad could happen." Says the same telepathic voice but only to Miss M. Suddenly another teen steps up but this one is covered in ice and just looking at him makes the teens shiver.
"What's up?" Greets the teen with a wave. Aqualad looks at the teen and a shiver runs down his spine.
"Alright, Young Avengers it is time to introduce yourselves." Says Captain America. The teen hanging upside down flips and lands in all fours.
"Hey it's me, you know… your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man." Says the teens with excitement. Suddenly a silver blur dashes around and through them all.
"Me oh my name is Speed." Says the teen as he runs around the area. Miss M looks to the blonde girl who looks at her nails.
"White Queen." Says the girl without paying attention to them.
"Iceman, pleasure to meet you." Greets the teen. Genisys looks at the teens in front of him as Starfire hugs his arm.
"It seems we will be working together." Says Aqualad.
"I am Kaldur or Aqualad." Greets the teen.
"Wally West or Kid Flash." Says the teen.
"Connor or Superboy." Greets the clone.
"Dick Grayson or Robin." Says the teen with a smile.
"Megan or Miss Martian." Greets the happy girls. The teens widen their eyes at the introduction.
"You just gave us your names." Says Speed with shock.
"Forgive us if we do not follow your example." Says White Queen.
"Sorry but we'll keep our identities to ourselves." Says Iceman making the other teens frown.
"Oh me I'm Starfire but you can call me Kori because even if you do know my name I doubt it would help as I am not from around here." Greets Starfire.
"My name is Genisys." Says the teen in a chilling tone.
"Alright now we have a briefing and you each have one more teammate." Says Batman. The teens begin to walk on as Genisys is latched on by Starfire. However Starfire narrows her eyes when White Queen walks on the opposite side.
"Things are going to be complicated." Says the Voice with an internal agreement by Genisys. The two girls glare at each other.
Ok guys so here is the new chapter. As you can see I added a new team for Genisys to lead.
Spider-Man to Aqualad's Robin. Spider-Man and him should be even in combat but that Spidey sense is going to cause problems for Robin.
Speed to Kid Flash… but I think I will make Speed stronger as I know that Quicksilver is nowhere near Flash's level. But Flash does not have Speed Physiology like Quicksilver and Speed. So what should I do?
Emma Frost to M'gann. Both are powerful but I think Emma wins this right. I mean she beat Charles Xavier and her diamond skin blocks telepath's.
Iceman to Aqualad. Now this is a toss up but I think Iceman takes this battle. The dude can hit absolute zero and can reform his body.
Genisys and Superboy are the powerhouses of each team. Superboy will be like Lar Gand as I think the two are even. No weakness to Lead though as he is a Kryptonian clone.
We know Artemis is going the Team but who will join… I need an easy name for the Marvel Team might just do MTeam and DCTeam of DTeam… not that last one LOL. But who will join the New Avengers to Young Justice's Artemis?
