Altered Cry

Disclaimer: An idea I found myself coming up with, sort of like my Teen Wolf fic 'Altered Life' but with this, its centered on Laurel and not Oliver. And if furthered, potentially not as mature in the themes of dark and sexual.

Summary: Taken by the Time Masters at a young age, Dinah Laurel Lance became a much different person.


"Okay, everyone, time to break it up and go home." Announced a figure dressed in all black with dark long hair as well as she came into view.

Causing the two groups there to look the woman's way with displeased expressions on their faces, both groups being Kobra Cult and SKULL and they had a long history with one another. "Who the Hell are you?" Asked one of the Kobra members with a snarl.

Ready to kill her at a moment's notice and knowing his brothers were the same as well. "I'm Iphameia." Informed the dark haired woman.

"Aww damn." Groaned one of the SKULL members.

As Iphameia had long been something of a legendary figure who served as an enforcer, an assassin, and a trump card to whatever group that could afford to hire her. At a young age, she'd been known as Dinah Laurel Lance until she'd been kidnapped by a mysterious organization known to a small few as the Time Masters and spent lifetimes shaping her into the kind of individual they wanted. Forever altering her path from what it was supposed to be, that of the Black Canary for their own twisted reasons. And once that was done and she had had a fair amount of experience, she'd basically been set loose on an unsuspecting world while occasionally doing jobs for them. Even having married an African American man from another Earth by the name of Painkiller. Who is one of the most deadliest assassins known on his Earth and this one as well. Iphameia smirked coldly at the SKULL member who had spoken aloud. "Glad my reputation proceeds me. Now, get the Hell out of here before I decide that Shadowspire's idea of what to do to you morons for causing problems in their territory is way better than MY idea of Screaming you all to death."

"Since when was this part of their territory?" Asked the lead Kobra in angered confusion.

Iphameia shrugged her shoulders. "I don't get paid to ask questions, Little Snake, I just get paid to do a job."

Grumbling was heard from both groups as none of them liked the interference Iphameia was causing for Shadowspire in this part of South America. That this part of the country was considered their territory also bothered both groups greatly since last they knew it had been up for grabs. Both leaders of each group that had been sent to the area looked at one another. "We deal with her first and then we finish our business." Said the lead Kobra.

"Agreed." Came the SKULL leader's response as Iphameia shook her head.

"Yeah, I don't think so, boys."

And with that, screams filled the air as a slaughter began.


Author's Notes: I got the name Iphameia from a name generator for Sirens. And for some reason, while watching clips of Painkiller from 'Black Lightning', the idea of him (older of course) and this take on Black Canary/Siren being together just screamed like a good idea to do. SKULL, Shadowspire, and Kobra are of course, actual DC Comics groups.
