Caught

[Rio de Janeiro : 09/16/2010]

The sun had already risen, its light landing on the beach town, passing through the windows of the Hero Sunspot's bedroom, illuminating Fire's beautiful face that was covered only by the blanket of the huge bed, the imprint of her excited night with her companion being on the walls stained black by their flames.

She fidgeted a little while stretching, in the end she got up exposing her sculptural figure with her tanned skin, she went to the wardrobe and got some clothes that fit her.

{Lady Beatriz, Mr. Sunspot awaits your presence in the kitchen.}

The windows lit up and several blue lines crossed the glass and the mechanical voice came out calling Beatriz's attention.

"Very well, I'm on my way."

She said as she left the room, even though it was a lively night she had already recovered even though her legs were a little weaker than usual.

Entering the kitchen she saw Rodrigo, shirtless preparing breakfast while humming a song.

"Good morning, Beatriz. Did you sleep well?" Roberto asked smiling at her.

"Yes, thank you. How about you?" replied Beatriz, as she sat down in the chair next to her.

"Excellent!" exclaimed Roberto, while putting pancakes on the table. "I'm full of energy after last night."

Sunspot smirked, making Beatriz blush slightly. "Let's change the subject," he said. "Computer, how's the situation with the new criminal group in town? Any news?"

{Looks like there's a new gang trying to establish itself in the southern part of town. They are using different tactics than we are used to seeing around here. It looks like they're trying to recruit young people from underserved areas who haven't entered the public service to work for them.}

Sunspot frowned. "This is concerning. We need to act quickly before the situation gets out of hand. We will need to assemble our team and come up with a plan of action."

Beatriz nodded, worried. She knew that Overwatch and its members' work as superheroes wasn't easy, but she was willing to help in any way possible.They had their breakfast calmly while discussing how this new criminal group can be neutralized at its root, but while they were sharing a good time together the AI of the house sounded an alert.

{Sir, there have been hundreds of millions of missing persons alerts popped up around the world and it's only increasing, they're all under eighteen.}

Beatriz looked scared at Roberto, she didn't like it when children were involved, on the other hand Roberto was remembering the episode in which all the children in the world and the adults shared different worlds.

"Computer, call available members, we have work to do, and contact any important Justice League members." Roberto commanded as he got to his feet.

[QG B08]

04:20 P.M.

At Overwatch's base Sunspot was commanding members to perform across the globe, preventing chaos from settling in the adults-only world.

He was aware of who was responsible and had a vague recollection of why they did it, but as time goes by his memories of the plot are leaving his mind, he needed to prepare for future scenarios.

{Batman speaking, what do you want?} The Gotham vigilante asked through the video call.

"Try to be a little less thick next time, but anyway, take a look at this."

Roberto triggered a holographic image of Earth, the image was blue but there were several yellow lines crossing around the planet.

"These are the Lay lines, these are the natural mana courses of the world, and now look at this one in the southern region of the United States."

Roberto said as he pointed to a location at an Alabama crossroads, Batman narrowed his eyes.

"This event is obviously magical in origin, and there's a huge flow of energy being used here, which is probably where our culprits are.".

Roberto said while transferring the coordinates to Batman.

{Thank you, available League members are already going to handle this, can Overwatch offer backup?} Batman asked as he typed some stuff.

"Only me, the others are busy keeping order, there are billions of desperate fathers and mothers wanting their sons and daughters back, we must hurry." Roberto said seriously.

{Roger, Batman hangs up.} The screen blanked out.Sunspot was about to leave, but his body glowed in white light and then he was in a separate space.

"*sigh* Honestly, sometimes I want to curse whatever entity created this reality." Roberto said as he looked into the surrounding cosmic space, he soon noticed two groups of bright spots in a nebula shaped like a scale, red and gold stars.

"Roberto da Costa, Sunspot, bearer of the Sun, welcome to the Cosmic Jury." A black man in a blue suit with a matching cape and hat, and a necklace of thirty pieces of silver.

"You... are the Phantom Stranger." Roberto said in surprise.

"Indeed, and you are here to discuss your interferences on this plane of existence, by order of forces greater than mine." Phantom said looking with his pupilless white eyes.

"Am I being accused of something serious by any chance?" Roberto asked without being intimidated.

"No, you're here to help with a problem we're having." Phantom declared.

"Well what is it about, speak up I have a divided world to save." Roberto said getting impatient.

"That I will decide, Sunspot." A new voice said.

Roberto turned to the new figure and now his eyes were surprised.
