Happy Holidays Everyone!

I want to apologize to any of my readers that are still around after all this time for the long Hiatus. I gave a better explanation in my updated profile but when I left off the on the last chapter I was just getting into my early 20s and I guess I wanted to experience my young adult life with no responsibilities

But I'm trying to get back on track now and wanted to provide this gift to my readers for the holidays.

Enjoy


Chapter 24: Greeting the Siblings

When Black Canary and team members arrived at the Med-Bay to see what had caused the explosion they found that Olesia and apparently Martian Manhunter had woken up while everyone had been speaking with Dick. However, Olesia must have been is shock because she had broken out of her restraints and transport into her Esclion version and had J'ohnn, Clark, and several members of the medical crew pinned against the walls the the Med-Bay

"Oshiana!" M'gann cried out when she saw her Uncle being restrained

The shout from M'gann distracted Oshiana long enough for Raquel to enter and use her Inertia belt to create a shield around Oshiana breaking her connection to the energy she was using to keep Martian Manhunter, Superman, and the staff pinned.

Black Canary ran over to J'ohnn and Clark while members of the team began helping the medical crew out of the room " J'ohnn what happened?"

J'ohnn had been just as surprised as they were when he had entered the room. The last thing he remembered was collapsing in the elevator to the Batcave and when he had woken up he was in an empty med-bay room at Mount Justice. After a minute of trying to recollect himself he began to hear a commotion from outside but when he had begun to go investigate he was shocked with the site of Oshiana restrained to a bed in another room apparently fighting to get out of them while medical staff were trying to keep her calm. With the addition of Clark trying to help them by pinning her legs down when the restraints were starting to fail

He didn't know how this had happened, but knew this was for sure

Oshiana from the armor she was still displaying along with her eyes beginning to glow their familiar violet hues.

He had run into the room without thinking to try to help but that was also the moment Oshiana broke free from everyone causing the explosion when she had blown everyone away from her but when Clark and J'ohnn had tried to get back up to approach her they had seen her form changed to the Esclion humanoid form floating several inches off the ground and had pinned all of them to the walls

Dinah could understand that she had probably reverted to animal instinct since she was in an unfamiliar place and was surrounded by total strangers.

This was the first time Clark had witnessed just a taste of an Esclions power, He was completely taken by surprise when he was launched against the wall and unable to move a single muscle when this had only ever happened to him under the influence of Kryptonite or a Red Sun.

"Well she certainly lives up to their race's reputation of being the strongest in the universe" He muttered while rubbing his aching neck

"Someone wanna try talking to her?" Wally suggested, seeing that Oshiana had still not calmed down even after being restrained behind Raquel's kinetic shield

Dinah stepped forward as the girl was still banging against the shield in an effort to break free, even using the hair like energy field behind her head to try to piece through the kinetic field, she couldn't get a clear read on her emotional state as this form didn't allow a clear look at the eyes but could tell from the rest of her expression that she looked frightened "Olesia!" She called out to her but it didn't seem she even heard her "Olesia it's ok, we're members of the Justice League!"

J'ohnn was standing behind them watching and M'gann had come over to update him on what had happened while he was unconscious so he knew Dick was also somewhere here in the mountain. When M'gann had told him they had found Olesia by herself near one of lazarus pit locations gathering their supposed medical herbs and nutrients, he was shocked that she was alone, they had told him before they either always went together or with a partner knowing the dangers that reeked there.

"Flash go get Dick, He should be able to calm her down" Dinah called out to the other leaguer present as he sped off

"Uncle J'ohnn maybe you can try talking to her. Maybe she'll calm down with a familiar presence in her mind" M'gann wasn't sure what was going on with Dick that he didn't seem to recall his past encounter with her uncle, maybe it had something to due with her Uncle sealing off his power earlier this this lifetime but Oshiana and Eavon shouldn't have the same issue

J'ohnn sent Oshiana a worried glance, all the energy she was exerting trying to break free might alert someone and he knew the danger that could impose. It had been so long since he had encountered the 2 older Esclion siblings that he wasn't even sure what to say to them

" Oshiana!" He called to her telepathically

This finally caused her to perk up and stop her assault on the shield, but she didn't turn in the direction of the Martians but instead turn downward like she was confused

The team turned over to the J'ohnn to see he was trying to mentally communicate with the female Esclion.

"Are you sure that's safe?" Connor asked M'gann "Who knows what kind of damage she can do mentally when she's in that kind of state"

"It should be fine" M'gann answered, thinking that Oshiana was finally calming down "Uncle J'ohnn should be able to get her back to her senses this way"

When Martian Manhunter had tried telepathically communicating with Daevi after entering Dick's subconscious to shut off his powers he had been met with a similar situation as now with Oshiana. Her mind has come to an abrupt halt at the entrance of his presence in her mind "Oshiana, It's fine. Your at the Mount Justice location of the Justice League in Happy Harbor, Maine" Oshiana's facial expression seem to calm down and began actually looking around the room where several members of the team and league were still watching " Daevi is also here, he surely told you he was reborn and raised by a member of the league" J'ohnn could sense from her that she confirmed this when they first encountered Dick in Gotham

Oshiana turned over to J'ohnn with a confused expression on her natural face "How do you know my real name? Or Daevi' and Eavon's?" She could sense from the martian that he seemed to be familiar with her as well as brothers but didn't know how this was possible if they hadn't come into contact with the league before this

Now it was J'ohnn's turn to be surprised when a shocked expression formed on his face

"What's wrong J'ohnn?" Clark asked, seeing the expression on his face " What did she do?"

That was when Dick came running into the room with Batman and Catwoman right behind him "What happened?" He asked

Kaldur turned around from where he had been watching Oshiana " She just seemed to be in shock, we had to restrain her to keep her from lashing out at us"

Oshiana seeing that Dick in human form had reverted back to her own human form and called out to him in a strange language that they could only assume was their native tongue, He had spoken back in the same language at first until he was interrupted the others present

"Hey!" Artemis yelled getting in between them "You still need to abide by the rules here ya know and that mean no secret language to communicate with"

Bruce seeing that Oshiana had finally calmed down and everything seemed to be in control now turned to Rocket" I think its ok to let down your shield"

Raquel nodded finally freeing Oshiana from her entrapment, with the adrenaline rush of the events finally over through this caused her to finally collapse to her knees, Selina rushed over just before hitting the floor to get her steady on her feet with Dinah on her other side

"It's probably best that you not be on your feet right now" Selina explained while they were trying to lead her back towards the bed to sit down "You had a pretty serious wound on your leg and they may not be all the way healed yet"

Oshiana remained quiet now, sitting back down on the bed she was originally resting in, She turned over to Dick and asked "How long have we been here?"

"Just a couple hours" Dick answered, They limit for any type of extended stay somewhere was usually 3 days at the most, unless it was the safehaven where they could spend up to a month or two without Lucero becoming suspicious of their absence

Bruce could see the concern growing on her face and tried to reassure her "We have earth best security systems all over the mountain so if there's any danger that could be approaching we'll know it"

"And you two still need to answer all the questions for what's been going on with this entire situation" Barry stepped up eying both Dick and Olesia

Oshiana frowned, " What have you told them?"

Bruce became defensive of Dick at that so before he could answer " He didn't have to tell us much of what we already knew, he only clarified things for us; We know that you along with Dick and Evan are all reincarnated Esclions from the virtually extinct Escar Race that was wiped out because of your Uncle Lucero's conquest billions of years ago. And you've been having to go into hiding ever since every time you've been reborn here on earth to stay ahead of him"

"We were also able to uncover your and Eavon's history. You were reborn as Olesia Jexon from Marietta, George where you were reported missing a couple months ago after a house fire and extended hospital visit" Dick glanced over at Olesia after hearing that so Bruce was thinking they didn't go that far into detail about the lives they lived before running off into hiding "And as for your older brother Eavon or Evan Miller as he was called, He was also reported missed close to a year ago from his parents home in Pasadena, Texas but the report was canceled when apparently it became known his parents never had children to the police department and their residential neighborhood. I'm assuming this was because he used his Esclion abilities to manipulate everyone's memories to not leave a trace of where he was from or have anyone come looking for him"

"Is he gonna be showing up here to get you two or anything?" Wally asked as there was one sibling missing from this equation

Oshiana seemed to just realize he wasn't here also "Is he ok? You should have been the last one with him" asking Dick

"He should be fine, I was able to find the medicine we needed for his wound in the forest and gave it to him before I came here for you. I told our A.I to alert me if there were any issues with his health before I left." He told her reassuring her they hadn't lost him yet before turning to Wally "And no I don't think he'll be showing up here cause he knows we can take care of ourselves"

"Well I think he should be here either way to clarify things for us too" Kaldur added

"That wouldn't be possible anyway since he's been unconscious since we left that shootout" Olesia sighed

"If he's been unconscious then, how has he been able to keep from being found from your Uncle if he hasn't moved from wherever he is for the past couple days" Artemis raised an eyebrow at that little tidbit of information

"You expect us to reveal all our secrets just because you're asking?" Olesia jetted back with the same attitude Artemis seemed to have

"If were to understand this situation better in order to help then—-" Clark began to say before being cut off by her again

"We never agreed to let you help us" Olesia stated trying to stand back up but her injured leg didn't allow for her to put much pressure on it, and since it was caused by a Triron bite it didn't allow her to use her accelerated healing

"Yeah, cause you're doing such a good job at that yourselves" Raquel scoffed seeing her stumble back onto the bed

Dick then stepped forward to defend her " Guys, I'm sorry but this is something that we have to handle ourselves. We can't risk putting either ourselves or you in danger with knowing more of our situation"

Bruce crossed his arms exclaiming "It doesn't matter if you agree to our help or not, In the end even if we didn't care about you personally this matter would still affect our duty to protect the earth. I can't imagine that Lucero doesn't have some sort of plan for Earth other than hunting you down"

The other leaguers present in the room all agreed with his statement. Even J'ohnn, while he didn't understand why Dick or Oshiana couldn't remember him he did still want to provide help to their situation, he had always felt the guilt of not being there when they truly needed him back in their last encounter but was sure he could make up for that now

And from what he had seen of Lucero then, he did have something planned for Earth he just didn't know what those intentions were so this wasn't just about them anymore

"If you want us to come completely clean about this then so will you all" Oshiana stated

"And what do we have to come clean about?" Kallie asked "I don't believe any of us have world threatening secrets"

"Oshi" Dick tried to stop her "That's not up for us to decide"

But she just glared back at him "You know what kind of danger they would be bringing to us if you continue to let them in on this"

"Dick what is she talking about?" Selina asked turning to him

Oshiana turned to her "Maybe you should be asking his former team members"

"US!" Wally's eyes widened "What could we possibly have to do with any of this"

"It not that you have information on us Wally" Dick responded " We just mean that …..um" He glanced at several members of the team including Connor, M'gann, Artemis and Ro-

He perked up seeing that the most important issue here wasn't present "Wait, where's Roy?"

This caused members of the the team and league to glance at each other. "The last time we saw him he was running another lead down with Zatanna to track you down" Artemis shrugged

Dick and Oshiana sent worried glances at each other wondering if that lead could complicate things more


Eavon groaned as he finally began sitting up from his position on the bed "Ughh…..I fell like I just slept for the longest a— time"

He glanced over feeling the fur on Oshiana's companion at his side, he smiled petting her on the head "Hey girl, you the only one that wanted to keep me company?"

"Pui" She cooed at his words

"Happy to see your awake Prince Eavon" Astra formed a humanoid holographic figure at the end of the bed to give him a proper greeting after his slumber

"Yeah, How long was I out" Eavon asked, rubbing his shoulder where he could still feel the lingering pain from the gunshot

"About 7 Earth Days"

"What!" Eavon's eyes widened " How could I have been out that long, why haven't Oshiana or Daevi tried waking me up! Where are they"

He began looking around the room for signs of them, seeing nothing he tried getting up to go looking for them

"I'm sorry but they are not currently within the Safezones limits,Princess Oshiana was apparently injured trying to find your medication in a Lazarus location on Earth but was taken by the Justice League for treatment when she was found there.

Prince Daevi left after making sure to give you the antidote for your poison to go and help her"

Eavon couldn't believe his ears at what he was being told. Before he has passed out at the backseat of that car Oshiana had seemed like she was going crazy over his wound but he didn't think she would try anything as dumb as going to a Lazarus location alone with the dangers lurking there.

And the fact that now both of them were with the Justice League of all people showed how chaotic their situation had become

"I gotta get them out of there" Eavon moved to leave but was blocked when the Astra solidified herself in front of him

"I do not believe that would be wise Prince Eavon. The safezone is not secure at the moment"

He raised an eyebrow at that and turned to her "What do you mean?"

"Two members of the team of heroes Prince Daevi had mentioned seem to have located the safezones anchor and managed to enter this realm"

Eavon felt like he was going to faint at this point


Roy and Zatana had finally managed to reach the base of what was most likely the home of the Esclions within the realm

"Wow" Zatanna looked in amazement at the sight of the enormous tree.

The truck of it seemed to spiral as it moved from the ground up to the large branches that extended out and Weeping Willow white leaves gently shook as the wind lightly blew

The area surrounding the large tree looked just as beautiful as there was a large lake behind it filled with the same line colored water and a waterfall could also be seen at the outskirts of the lake

"Well looks like we finally made it to the base at least" Roy was just as taken aback by the sight of it up close but now began looking to see if there was some entrance they should be able to use

Zatanna could see that someone had defiantly made a structure within the tree because she could see man-made architecture on certain portions. That was until she could see a fireball blow from the side of the large tree and a large four legged gray animal flew down and landed right of them. From the impact of its it caused both of them to be knocked to the ground

Zatanna could see the creature was about the size of a horse, it was on four legs and had fangs protruding from its snout. It had glowing white eyes with ruffles of fur coming from around its neck. She could also see that it had a few tails

Roy immediately sprung into action getting an explosive arrow from his Quiver and firing it at the animal.

" Dammit!" He yelled when the creature blew fire that disintegrated the arrow midway causing it to explode

"Roy!" Zatanna cried trying to get up to help but since her ankle was still fractured along with her magic not working there wasn't much she could do

With the smoke now cleared Roy then made to get another arrow but the animal sprung from the remaining smoke trying to bite so Roy moved his Bow to try to shield himself

""Aria!"

Roy heard someone yell before a light shined in front of him and a tiny creature the size of a cat landed in front of him. He blinked and looked down to see the animal had apparently shrunk but now had a cat-like face, the tuffles of fur around its neck and reverted to a scarf shape and its tails had curled back up

"What the —?"

"Seriously, what have we told you about running off like that"

Roy and Zatanna watched as the tiny creature sprinted over to the voice and looked up to see none of than Evan Miller. Though he looked a little worse for wear appearing in only a pair of sweat pants and bandages around his shoulder

Eavon having gotten their resident chiklo under control turned to their unexpected guests

"Well this is a little awkward" He chuckled at their shocked expressions

"You're—" Zatanna began to say

"Eavon. Or you guys must know me as Evan right?"

"What the hell just happened!" Roy finally got up from the ground and went to try to confront him "I was gonna try to talk things out first but if you want to start with our fists I'm all for that too"

"Whoa, hold up how am I the one starting a fight when I could have just let little Aria here have you for lunch"

"Pui!" Aria cried out again from her spot next to Eavon's leg

"And you're technically the ones trespassing here so I didn't have to even come out here in the first place. I could have just sent you both back home with a flick of the—" Eavon went to snap his fingers before Zatanna spoke up

"Hold on a minute!" Zatanna tried getting up again but couldnt get her footing right

"Aria didn't that did she?" Eavon asked seeing her stumble into Roy

"No, she got that injury falling into the cave that lead us here" Roy answered as he helped her stand

"Oh well you can just try dipping your ankle into the water here. It had healing properties that'll make you good as new" Eavon gestured over to the lake

"We thought that was Lazarus water" Zatanna was hesitant at first since she heard from Roy that it gave you a bloodlust

"It not like the Lazarus pits of Earth that we're assuming were created from parts of this realm leaking into Earths side so you don't have to worry about any icky side effects from it" He reassured her and took her hand to lead her over to the side of the lake

Zatanna was still resistant but dipped her foot in anyway, the water seemed about room temperature and she could begin feeling a warm sensation around her ankle until the pain gradually faded and her foot became good as new

"Thanks so much" She thought it would take months before she would be able to be back on her feet

"Thanks for that but why are you being so nice to us?" Roy asked

"Figured it the least I can do" Eavon shrugged " Didn't want to send you home all banged up like that"

Zatanna held up her hand to stop him "No, wait we're here because we've been looking for our friend!"

"I know, your talking about Dick right? Or is it Robin?"

Roy nodded " That's right, and seeing as your here and he's been traveling around with you we must have come to the right place"

"That's where you'd be wrong though" He smiled "I just woke up from a long nap and been told he's with the Justice League right now"

"What?" Zatanna eyes widened

"Though not voluntarily from what I've heard seeing as it was our sister Oshiana who was taken there first and he apparently just went after her" He was amused seeing their shocked expressions "But I guess I should let them know your here so we can sort everything out huh?"


"Oshiana, Daevi"

Dick and Oshiana were still in the med bay trying to dissuade the league from butting into their situation when all of them heard the voice coming from out of nowhere

"Eavon! You're awake?" Oshiana was the first to respond

"Yeah, and it looks like things have basically gone to s** since I've been out cold"

"Hey! From our perspective things have been going to s**t for the last billion years for you guys!" Wally yelled

"What he said!" Artemis added

While Bruce wouldn't exactly have used those exact terms he would have to agree with the two young hero's. But now that he heard the third sibling was finally conscious they could try to move forward with this situation "That's enough. Now then Eavon, I think it would be best that you communicate with us in person rather than telepathically to be able to get a clearer perspective on things"

Oshiana shook her head "I don't think there's anything we need to clear up, Now that we hear that he's ok we can just head back to his location and be done with this" She went to grab Dick's wrist when

"That's not gonna do us much good actually Oshi"

"Does that mean your finally seeing some sense with your problem" Raquel asked

"No, what I mean is that two of your little friends seem to have located our special hideout and here with me"

Dick choked when he heard " Eavon you don't mean"

"Yeah so looks like we're basically screwed"


Please Review

While I was reading back on the story to get a grasp of where I left off I could see some mistakes I made on the timeline of the story for the later chapters so I just want to clarify things. I wanted for Eavon and Oshiana's memories to have been affected when J'ohnn sealed off Dick's powers so they would have been in High School when they got their memories and not 11 or 13 like i originally put.

I also had the Idea to make Wolfee who was Superboy's companion "Mason" who was Oshiana's fiance from 1980's timeline. I don't know how that would work out since I left Wolfee off with running into the jungle and Mason off with encountering Dick in the Jungle too. But I'll see how You all respond to that Idea. So let me know in the comments

I'm currently on semester break at my current college and courses don't start again until January 27 so I'm hoping to get another chapter out to you guys before I go back.

I've recently created a new Tumbler and X page that I've added the usernames too on my profile for . I'll try to give regular updates on there since I can't give updated on this site

I also wanted to take this moment to try to help out my sister's situation. She's fallen on some pretty hard times this year due to some unfortunate circumstances earlier this year and posted a Gofundme. You can read her story on her page there but I wanted to try to help her the only way I can right now by bring more views to her situation. So if anyone can help repost her story or provide help in anyway it will surely mean alot of her

Thank You all!
