I was seven years old when my dad took me to the salt flats,
drove all the way up to Utah for speed week at the Bonneville
Slat Flats. I wasint what you'd call a speed freak but my dad
loved it. He diddint say much on those car rides. Mostly
mentioned how exciting it was going to be if we witnessed a
world record. "We could be part of history!" He'd say. We
diddint see any records broken that year, so he promised to take
me back the next. He wanted desperately to be apart of something
special.
"Dad."
He didn't know that just being there was something special. We
were standing on what was once a great lake over ten thousand
years ago, and all he was focused on was a world record. Me? I
was happy to spend time with my dad. Now, you might think that a
place where so many land speed records were broken would have
great traction. You'd be wrong, the salt actually makes the
surface slicker, so you really got to know what your doing to
keep in a straight line. You may start out shaky, may even fall
at first. But if start slow, focus on your horizon and build
your speed. The long flat will reward you. The clear path allows
you take your time and reach your full potential. That's why I
like coming here, it helps clear my head it helps me think
without distraction. Just start slow focus. Build up my speed.
Look at the horizon.
HUB CITY FIVE YEARS AGO
"Why are you here Donovin? I told you to stop coming." "Its
mom's anniversary I do it every year." "And you've gone over her
case file. Again. Found nothing. Again." "dad. Sooner or later
I'm gonna find something and get you out of here." "stop doing
this to yourself son. You can't keep letting the past hold you
back. I'm imprisoned but your the one living behind bars. It's
time to move onmy you'll never prove my innocence. You've wasted
your time on a guilty man, I did it. I killed your mother.
Lightning strikes
this is the part where I die. Even as the lightning strikes and
the chemicals burn my skin. It's my father's words that do the
death blow. I feel myself slipping my life moves like a flash.
All this time I refused to belive it. Even though they told me
it was dad. Even though I saw how angry he was. It diddint make
any sence how could he do it? But I guess I'll be seeing you
soon mom.
I must be dead. I see my life flash, my mind is racing I feel
trapped! It feels strange, I'm immobilized trapped inside I want
to burst. Electricity surges through me. I need to set myself
free. Need to get out!
"I don't wanna belive you I wanna see my mom!" "Listen son,
something bad happened to your mom. Something bad. Someone hurt
her, she diddint make it." "Donovin! You have to belive me! I
diddint do it!" "I have to see her! Your a liar! You made a
mistske!"
When dad said he did it I diddint want to belive him. I spent my
life trying to prove his innocence. The evidence had to be wrong
I couldint lose both of you.
"Son please. my name is Darryl Frye. I knew her mother she
wouldint want you to be alone right now.
VIRUNGA MOUNTAINS EAST AFRICA
Why did my dad and Darryl let me go on for so long? What was the
point? What do I do now? And where the hell am i?
"Welcome back to the land of the living. Struck by lightning and
now you're up and running gave me a good scare there." "I feel
like the luckiest man alive." "Hah! Not many who've been through
what youve been through could say that." "it's easy to keep
swinging to when you have people to support you." "you know,
people thought I was Doing you a favor by taking you in but you
gave me so much. You gave me a reason to be a better person, a
better cop. I made captain because of you." "I have something
for you." I handed him his first year badge on the force "where
did you find this?" "I found it when I was running around."
The sheild means alot to Darryl it's my turn to find mine. Took
me a few tries it's defiantly not like the movies. Simple tights
won't do it. Not for me. I need something stronger, like metal.
It seems to act strangely around me. Almost like a force is
building around my speed creating a thermal expansion.
this is so cool.
"I diddint think I was going to see you again." "I wanted you to
know that I'm okay. And you were right." "Good to hear." "I
clung to the past for to long I needed you to be innocent." "And
now?" "Now I'm going to look forward." "so this is the last time
I'm going to see you?" "When you see me again you will be a free
man, after I prove your innocence. I'll see you next year."
I still don't belive dad would do this to you I don't think I
ever will. But I don't need him to be innocent anymore. I want
him to be. it makes sence to me now. I know that everything that
has happened it was for a reason. It made me who I am. And who
am i? I'm Donovin craig, the fastest man alive. I am the flash.

Nothing else is really like it, there's only one problem with
speed.. when you get in the zone the adrenaline becomes
addictive. All you want to do is go faster, and faster. And
when you go as fast as I do. The world becomes a blur
"So,You guys are actually going to be there tomorrow?"
The two young bats grinned at me.
"Wouldn't miss it for the world," said Jason. "I can't wait to
see you kick Superman's ass."
"You really think I can?
"Absolutely," he said smiling. "While Supes can probably outdo
you flying, he won't stand a chance in a footrace."
i grinned. "At least I don't have to worry about losing my title
of Fastest Man Alive. However, "what would you say if I were to
test just how much of a boy scout Big Blue is?"
Dick and Jason looked at each other for a second before turning
back to me.
"You're going to try and **** him off. Aren't you?" asked Dick.
"I APPROVE!"
Dick shook his head smiling. "I still don't understand why you
act that way as Flash."
"Hey, that's not fair. I still act like me, just louder,
stupider, and more obnoxious. It's kind of like the opposite of
what you do. Dick is a happy-go-lucky playboy, while Nightwing
is a serious and brooding creature of the night. Personally, I
prefer my way more,People always underestimate me."
"Again," said Jason. "I approve! Oh, and make sure to hit on
Lois Lane. That'll really maka him mad."
"CRAP!" he tore off his lab coat and goggles and haphazardly put
everything away before he held up his flash ring and shot his
costume out. "I'm going to be late!"
Finally, he ran out of his garage and the next instant, he was
running out of Central and across the east half of the continent
towards Metropolis on the Delaware coast.
"I can't wait to mess with Supey," muttered Flash excitedly.
The next instant, he was in Metropolis and running around the
statue in the middle of the city where a big crowd stood. Flash
made a bit of a wind tunnel to make an appearance and then came
to a stop next to Superman, blowing his cape over his head in
the process.
"Sorry I'm late! Just woke up two minutes ago," Flash proclaimed
arrogantly and then posed for some pictures. When Superman put
his cape back in place, Flash grinned at him. "Give me five, big
guy!"
Superman, being gullible, raised his hand, but of course Flash
moved his hand out of the way and told him he was slow.
Clark remembered his first meeting with Flash. It was a charity
race and Flash was acting like a big jerk until they stopped
Weather Wizard together.
The memory showed their banter before the race, and Superman had
to admit, he was pretty short with Flash.
He watched as he got ready to run while Flash just stood there
relaxed. When the starting gun was fired, both of them took off.
The race became a little blurry and fast-forwarded. After
Superman and Flash ran on water, the memory focused more.
"Okay," muttered Flash smiling. He was a bit ahead of Superman.
"I'm a little impressed," he frowned a bit, "but he's still so
slow, especially with that stupid cape dragging him down." Flash
smiled and shook his head. "I am such a nice person!"
Flash and Superman saved a ship off the coast of Australia and
watched the video threat of Weather Wizard aka Mark Mardon. They
ran towards the US, but were both frozen in a block of ice. The
two heroes were trapped in there for a minute until Flash
started vibrating himself to melt through the ice. He looked at
Superman still frozen.
"I wonder if I should thaw him out?" Flash mused, but a second
later, Superman started to use his heat vision to get himself
out. "Huh. Not bad, but this stuff isn't near as bad as Cold's
new ice gun." He leaned against an ice pillar and waited for
Superman to finish spinning like a drill. Flash snorted.
"Ballerina. He's even en pointe."
The rest of the memory passed without any surprises until
Superman went by himself to confront Weather Wizard after Flash
had gotten shocked by the force field surrounding Mardon's home.
Flash sat there looking at the hole in the ground Superman made.
"Nice going craig," he said. "You wanted him to think you were
an idiot. Mission accomplished." Flash sighed. "On the upside:
getting hit by lightning? Not as painful as the first time
around."
Flash followed Superman and ran into the underground tunnel he
made into the house. The league watched as he interrupted Mardon
and knocked the weather wand out of his hand. It was relatively
easy for Superman and Flash after that. All they had to do was
get out of there before the place blew-up from the overload
Flash had accidentally caused the machine.
After they put Mardon away, Flash and Superman actually got
along and Superman complemented him and played his own high five
trick on him. The memory ended when they both decided to finish
the race.

HUB CITY DINER
"The man has eaten thirty hamburgers already!" "I know Doris but
he's still eating so get him the twelve more!" "So there I was.
Solomon grundy tried to sneak up on me, but he diddint you know
why?" The man stops to take a sip from his fifteenth smoothie.
As the two girls in the booth tool their eyes. "Because I'm the
flash-" "the fastest man alive, you told us." "Did I? Anyway,
when grundy tried to grab me and-" Suddenly a car gets run off
the road by a truck and slams through the diner walls. A
millisecond before the girls get hit they're grabbed and put to
safety. "Wouldint you excuse me a minute?" Flash goes to check
on the man driving, "you okay man?" "Hes a mad man ran me right
off the road! Someone's gotta stop him!" "Right, later ladies."
The flash speeds off after the truck. "And you diddint want to
give him our numbers."
The truck crashed through an an intersection causing cars to
crash everywhere. The flash gets all the people out of them as
he continues his chase. One of the men look out the window and
begin to use a grenade launcher. The flash dodges the
projectiles as he moves. He runs up the sides of buildings and
lands on the truck. He sea that one house begins to crumble from
the explosion, he saves the family from the debris by running
around it creating a cyclone, then rebuilds the entire house by
running to the library every few seconds to learn how to even do
it. Before running back after it. The truck makes it to the high
way with the flash right behind it, grenades still firing. He
knocks on the drivers side "okay pull over." The truck swerved
and falls off the bridge, the flash gets the people out and
jumps back on it. But before the truck explodes it gets caught
in a green light and us put back on the bridge.
Floating over the bridge is a green lantern, a white blonde hair
and slightly chubby green lantern to be exact. "Lose something?"
"I was handling it." He looks at the slight destruction of the
bridge "so I see." "What are you even doing here?" "responding
to a police call. Someone hijacked a truckload of radioactive
isotopes." He opens the truck and sure enough there they are.
"No wonder these guys were in such a hurry." the driver of the
truck wakes up "ughhh. Where am i?" "You hijacked a truck and
ran it off a bridge, any of this ringing a bell?" "Let's see
some I.D" Blanturn uses his ring and a green light grabs the two
wallets. "Professor arthur chin and professor john stevens. Both
work at river bluffs Reaserch center." "And I feel guilty when I
take paperclips from the watchtower."
"I'm sorry I can't explain the behavior. They're both highly
respected in their feilds." "They don't really fit the profile
of armed robbers." "To be fair they've been under enormous
pressure. It's possible they simply snapped under the strain."
The flash walks around the facility and finds a room filled with
monkeys. He grabs a banana and brings it to a big one. "Want
one?" The Reasercher grabs the banana and points at the no
feeding the animals sign. "Then why was it there?" "If you
excuse me I have work to do."
HUB CITY PARK
"Would you hurray up! We're supposed to be in the middle of an
investigation!" "Can I help it if I gave a hipper accelerated
metabolism? Besides it's just A little snack." He starts to eat
the 25 hamburgers as police officers chase a giant gorilla
through the park. "I'm on it!" The flash runs after the sirens
"wait I'll go.. with you." "Not without paying for those you
ain't."
The cops corner the giant gorilla who jumps over the wall and
climbs through the monkey bars and gets into a car and begins to
drive off.
" Ow there's something you don't see every day." The flash runs
after him and grabs a Rake "having fun mojo?" the ape drives
faster and flash throws the rake infront of the car popping the
tires. He grabs the ape on the floor "don't worry well have you
behind monkey bars soon." The ape grabs his hand "get your paws
of me you filthy human!" "Say what?" Suddenly it all goes black.
HUB CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
The flash comes to in a cell. "Uhh where am i?" Two cops walk in
and say "you justice league hot shots think you can do whatever
you want not in my city. Let's go red you gotta lot of
explaining to do." He takes him to an interrogation room "hey
easy what did I do?" The cop moves to the tv and presses play.
"This is surveillance footage from the police impound."
the camera shows the truck that was recovered with the isotopes
and in the next frame there gone. "I don't understand." "To
quick for you let's show it down. In a freeze frame it shows
flash taking the last barrel of the isotopes "recognize
anybody?" "I diddint do it I'm innocent!" "So thats not you in
the video?" "No! Well I mean yes but-" "maybe some coffee will
help you out, how do you take it?" "Cream and thirty seven
sugars... seriously." Blanturn walks in the room "hell be taking
it in a to go cup." He hands the cop a slip. "you posted bail
for this lowlife?" "If he were really guilty you think you could
have held him with hand cuffs?" The flash slips the cuffs off
and hands it to the copsl as they walk out the door.
"Thanks for beliving me in there." "What we're you thinking!" "I
already told them I don't remember! " "alright then let's start
with the last thing you do remember. " "alright after I caught
the gorrila he said-" "the gorrilla talked to you?" "Ya right
after I through him out of his car." "I'm supposed to belive
this?" "Hey we both got a Martians phone number on our speed
dial, i deserve the Benifit of the doubt here." "Let's check it
out... together this time!" The flash and blanturn move back
towards the park.
They see cops all around the perimeter as they land in the
center "looks like king Kong's still out there." They search as
blanturn from a a spotlight with his ring. He eventually
highlights a gorilla foot print in the mud. "Wait I got
something." They go under a bridge and find the ape. Blanturn
hits him with a Missile sending him back. The gorilla gets up
"was that really necessary?" "Okay, so he can talk." "My name is
solovar the flash and I have already met. I am the chief of
security for gorilla city." "Gorilla city?" "Ya a technology
advanced eutopia made of only gorillas. What's hard to imagine
about that?" "Used to be a eutopia. Until King Grodd reemerged
from the speed force." "He got out!" "Yes flas he did. He tried
to conquer our city with advanced mind control technology. We
were able to thwart his evil plot, but we couldint prevent his
escape. It wasint until later that we discovered he had stolen
our city's security plans. Grodd has sworn revenge on all in
gorilla citym" "That's why your here? And if he does have mind
control tech that would explain the isotopes." "And your memory
loss." "Yes he needs the isotopes to Power his devices." "Where
is he?" Solovar walks to bush and it decloaks to show a hover
bike. He gets a large pile of papers and hands it to flash. Wich
he reads in a second. "An email with a local scientist dr. Sara
Corral is working with grodd Damnit I knew there was something
off about her." "We better call the leauge." "Why? I can handle
gorddy on my own and with, solovar here were fine." "These
headbands will protect us from grodds ray." don't need em!"
"Wait dont! He is very fast." "come on we gotta catch the
idiot."
The monkeys scream on spotting the Crimson speedster as he walks
the halls. The doctor puts a gun to his forehead "don't move."
She pulls the trigger but there's nothing there to catch the
bullet. She feels someone tapping her shoulder and she turns
around and flash grabs the gun. "how-" "you blinked. Wheres
grod?" "I don't know what you mean." "Don't play cute with me.
Grodd your little monkey pen pal!" Flash gets uppercutted by a
gorrilas fist. Grodd hops off the light from the ceiling "that's
for the banana." "Ow." "I hate bananas."
Blanturn and solovar blasts through the room. "It's over groddm"
"solovar what a nice surprise." "With these headbands you can't
control us." "Actually I wasint thinking of controlling you."
The flash sits up and knocks out solovar in one punch as grodd
and the doctor walk away. "Yep shoulda swarm that coming."
Blanturn pushes flash back but he grabs solovar gun and fires it
at him. Blanturn barely dodges them as he forces constructs to
try to hit him. The flash easily dodges the constructs "how are
you moving that fast! My constructs are light speed!" Flash
grabs random chemicals and throws them at blanturn. Blanturn
gets hit in the face by a banana which makes him mad. "Hold
still!" Blanturn makes a beam of light and accidentally cuts the
pillar causing the rubble to fall on top of him. He breaks out
and the flash hits the wall. Solovar gets up and wakes both of
them up.
"The system is operstional." "then we take out leave." The two
get on a hover bike as solovar shoots them. The bullets ricochet
off the force field "I'm sorry to do this but I have a city to
destroy!" A wave of energy e men ates from the force field "no!"
blanturn tries to contain it as it expands swallowing the whole
city. Then suddenly the cit dissappears leaving a crater which
once was Hub city.

WATCHTOWER
Martian manhunter, hawkgirl, and wonder woman are the only ones
on monitor duty when Martian manhunter comes wit a startling
revelation. "Hub city, its gone." "That's impossible." "senors
indicate that the city has vanished without a trace." "weren't
Flash and Bl down there?" Wonder woman gets on her communicatior
"Flash, blanturn are you there?" The static is her only answer."
HUB CITY
Blanturn gets up from the ground with a groan and he looks at
the other two men lying on the ground he gets the barrier off
the two and solovar gets up. "Were still here." "So it would
seem." "Is the flash still prone to mind control?" "This should
protect him." Solovar places the head band on his head and the
flash shoots up. "Who,what,where?!" The other two look at him
with no answer "aw man not again! What did I miss?" "Not much."
"Go ahead, rub it in." "That dumb old gorilla got away. It's
time to call in back up." The comms don't get a signal." Solovar
walks over to the window "there is a good reason why your comms
don't work." He points to the barrier over Hub city "This
barrier is the same type that protects my city. Nothing gets
in." "Or out, unless I can fry that barrier." Blanturn walks to
the generator and puts all of his will into a beam and makes it
hit the generator. Flash whistles "not even a scratch nice try
champ." "Shut up."
"Approaching Hub city." "Or where it used to be. see anything
yet?" "Negative. it's as if it never existed." A warning goes
off inside the ship. "Incoming!" "I see nothing." "Batman
designed this ship, if it's says somethings there, great hera."
The ship gets hot and crashes down to a nearby field. the three
walk out dazed. "Your trust in batmans engeneering was well
placed." "But where did it come from?" The three spread out
until wonDer woman touches the barrier "Some sort of field, John
can you phase through it?" Manhunter begins to try to phase but
he is tossed back by a surge of electricity. "Agh! It seems it
is asyschncornus dimensional interface." "Let me take a whack at
it." Hawkgirl stupidly flies headfirst towards it and hits it
with her mace causing her to hit the ground." "maybe we should
get some help?"
The three walk down main street in Hub city
"Ugh, is anyone else getting creeped out? Where is everyone?"
"Maybe the barrier scared them?" "Maybe Sal but usually when a
street like this is empty it's because flash earing zombies ate
around the corner." "You watch two many movies." Solovar stops
the two "wait!" The three listen and here a crowd shout and
scream. "Maybe you don't watch enough movies." They go to the
source of the disturbance and they see all of Hub city gathered
for a speech delivered by grodd himslef. "It's to late there
already under his control!" "How many of these things ya got?"
"Three more." "Thats... Not enough."
"Diana, I've analyzed the data you sent. There's a second
signature identical to the one in Hub city, except it'd in
africa." "Africa?" "could the city have been teleporter there?"
"unlikely but worth investigating, ill send you the coordinates
meet me there."
The crowd becomes excited and starts chanting grodds name until
they are quited down and he Begins to speak. "People of Hub
city, the age of hairless, simple minded humanity is over. Today
a new age dawns. Today grodd rules. humans are ugly, slow,
immoral, and have an unpleasent body odor." "Hey who you calling
slow!" "Do not heckle the supervillan flash!" "Kicked his ass."
"Humans are inferior creatures, fit only to serve at my whim.
And when I destroy gorilla city you all will be the stepping
stones to build my empire!" "Hey monkey boy, Why don't you go
climb a skyscraper?" "Intruders! Destroy them!" "Couldint keep
your big mouth shut could ya?" The citizens move in on the three
but blanturn shoots a beam down into the ground around them to
create a concrete island. "We needed breathing room. Don't move,
I'm going after grodd!" The Hub city swat team gets into
position and begin to shoot at Blanturn. As he's distracted the
rpg unit gets ready. Blanturn makes a shield to dodge the
bullets but dosent see the rockets.
the two girls from the diner Jump on the island and run towards
the two. Solovar points his gun at them but is stopped by flash.
"hey ladies! Remember me? I'm the one who saved you this
morning." The girls throw rocks at the flash hitting him in the
mouth "ow! So much for gratitude." The rpgs are about to fire as
the flash runs as the rocket leaves. Suddenly it's gone and the
cops turn to flash "you might wanna run now." The cops run as
the gun explodes.
AFRICA
The three get out of the jet and meet up with batman. "This is
defiantly the same signature as the one in Hub city." "Great, we
Couldint get through that one either." a turret comes up from
the ground and fires at the group knocking them unconcious.
They wake up in a cell bounded by handcuffs as a gorilla walks
in. "Where are we?" "You misunderstand your situation intruder.
I ask the questions around here." "sure, just get us out of
these things." The gorillas walks up to hawkgirl "you think this
is a game? You think I'm going to let spies loose in Gorrila
city?" "We are not spies, nor will you keep us here!" Manhunter
stands up and is shocked with electricity and falls to the
ground."
HUB CITY AIR FORCE BASE
A guard walks up to the gorilla couple on a hover bike "halt,
who goes there?" Grodd walks up to him "your lord and master."
The guard drops his gun "Hail, lord grodd." He takes the two
into the control room.
"Launch codes accepted." "Excellent, enter these targeting
coordinates." grodd hands the doctor a piece of paper and she
puts it into the computer. "Targets locked confirming gorilla
city. All systems go." The two turn a key and missile silos open
and four nuclear missles get ready to fire.
Solovar shoots the ground of the civilans but they keep coming.
"Flash, i can't keep them off us for much longer."how much do
you weigh?" "About 400 of your pounds why?" The flash runs and
picks up solovar And the two run into an alley.
"Ahh! 400 pounds huh?" Blanturn joins them in the alley "grodd
got away, again. But if he used his rocket bike my ring can
follow his trail." "I've gotta get me one of those." Blanturn
picks up solovar with his ring and flies up and flash runs
behind them.
The three arrive outside of the base and see the bike. "He must
be inside." "Really genius, who would of guessed? " "shutty."
the guard comes out and begins to fire "halt, in the name of
grodd!" Solovar dodges the bullets and kicks him in the face.
"Hurray, before grodd finds out were here." An alarm goes off "I
think he already knows." "that's a launch alert!" The misses
take off for gorilla city. "Ill go after the missles!" Blanturn
takes off leaving the other two.
"Quit stalling spy who sent you!" "No one sent us." The gorilla
knocks down manhunter "ill give you one last chance." "Take your
best shot!" Batman gets free of his binds and gets the gorilla
tied up in a net, he grapples up to the ceiling and uses his
Batarangs to get the others out of the binds. Hawkgirl gers up
and bashes the wall down and they all fly off while batman
glides down really slowly. The chief gets out and calls for
backup.
the group runs through a mall and to the center of town "this
dosent Make sence." "Let's not wait to find out." They get to
edge of the city and they hit the barrier all except fro batman.
They get cornered by the police as they see that the field goes
down. "Get it back up immidetly!" the gorilla presses a button
but dosent do anything. "Someone's overridden the systems!"
"Grodd!" "What are your orders?" "Evacuate the city immidetly."
"but what about the humans." "But what about the humans?" "I
have bigger problems at the moment.""maybe we can help." "How
could you help?" "Just watch."
Blanturn flies through the night as he closes in on the nukes.
He gets to the first and cuts the wires with his ring causing it
to explode in air. He then flies to the next one and does the
same thing but the debris hits him in the face knocking him out.
"Sir one of the nuclear missles have gone off line." "No matter,
one will be enough." The flash and solovar run in the room
"grodd, you you're under arrest for crimes against gorilla
city." "Flash! In five more minutes there won't be a gorilla
city." "Missile number two deactivated." "It's over grodd."
Grodd jumps on solovar and knocks him out. The flash jumps on
grodds back and puts the helmet over his eyes and taps on the
helmet. "Guess who." "What?" Flash jumps off "where are you
human?" "You want a piece of me, chuckles? Come on." grodd
lunges for flash but he moves out if the way. Flash sees that
the missles are about to arrive and speeds off through the hole
the missles made in the bubble.
The nuclear missles reach gorilla city as martian manhunter
phases through one and gets the detonater out of it ss the
missle crumbles in the air.hawkgirl hits one with her mace
cutting it in half and the other side still falls to the earth
wonder woman flies after it and grabs it trying to get it to
stop. "hera, give me strength." The missle crashes to the street
But a blur throws wonder woman out of the way and a tornado
forms out of his hand to try to get it to stop and it slows but
still crashes to the ground, undetonated. Batman runs and begins
to throw off the boulders until John puts his hand on his
shoulder. Suddenly the flash phases through the missle and walk
out of it, detonater in hand."what I miss?" "The fates were kind
today. Your city is safe." Cheers fill the area as Flash looks
at batmans dirty hands. "You do care." Batman puts the hands in
behind his cape and walks off. Flash runs back to Hub city.
Grodd await's his arrival and tries to hit him. Flash moves and
grodd goes sailing into the monitors. "Gotta catch me first."
Grodd pulls his head our and tries to hit him again as Flash
dodges. Grodd accidentilly puts his hand through the control
console. "Stand still and fight me simpleton." "We could do
that, tell you what I take off the headband you take off the
helmet. Come one gorilla my dreams take it off. Flash throes off
his head band and grodd chuckles "you're s bigger fool then i
thought." "Oh ya we you're...naked." "the world will miss that
genius intellect." Grodd activates his helmet and it
electrocutes him and his face goes numb and he falls over as
smoke comes off the helmet, or is it his brain? "What did you do
to him?" "Simple. When I pushed the helmet around his eyes I
crosses some wires." "How could you?" "you'll be okay, now that
you're free from his mind control." "No he diddint use that on
me. He loved me." Flash turns to solovar"Internet
relationships."
Grodd is placed in a cage our front of gorilla city palace
drooling from his mouth unmoving. The flash puts a banana in his
hand and he holds it "good monkey." "Almost makes ya feel sad
for him." "Do not worry lantern he will be cared for. Do not
worry." "Not bad huh?" "Guess you aren't as stupid as you look."
"Hey nobody makes a monkey out of me!"
Grodd looks down at the banana and crushes it with his hand and
wipes the drool from his mouth.

That wasint the last time I'd see grodd. Never is is it? But it
would be a while, in fact this onext happened two days ago.
WATCHTOWER
I remember being up in the lunch room with wonder woman and
supergirl "oh i thought it was our dsy to have lunch." "oh is it
tuesday already? Well theres no way i planned this to maybe make
you guys friends again." "Yes because that would not work."
"Come on people just give it a chance." ".....pastas good."
"It's the sauce." "This isint going to work!" "Not a chance!"
They botg storm out of the room while blantuen entered."you see
that! I had lunch with two beautiful women.... cause im a stud!"
"Ah ha what i saw was two beautiful women leaving you in a huff.
"Fffffffffuck you." "Bridge now."
doctor light, and red tornado Wait for us as we
arrived.Blanturn was talking about something boring whole I was
thinking about 40 steaks.
"We know grodd has some kind of organized group. I'm tired of
just putting out fires!" "We need to find this new secret
society and take the fight to them." "guys I'm not arguing that
there's just gotta be another way." "this Is it. When grodd took
control of your mind a couple of years ago, even though the
connection was broken, he left a psychic link." "I can
mystically access this link and trace it to grodd, wherever he
hides." "And when we do find grodd we will likely find Luthor,
bizarro, and any number of supervillan that are with him." "No
doubt, but I don't like strangers poking around in my brain, no
offence doc." "I assure you we will not read your thoughts. Your
mind is simply important." They pushed me into a chair "this is
really more Johns thing." "Johns not here." "How about we go
check with batman?" "You saw batmans report, he covered all
tracks." "We need to find him before he hurts anyone else, this
may be our only shot." "Man, just be careful wit my head. That's
were I keep all my one liners." a see a flash of red.
"I see your already strapped in to my mind control tech, it's a
little crude but it will get the job done. Last chance how do I
activate the brainiac piece?" grodd says nothing "I'm going to
enjoy ripping the information from your frontal lobe."
The machine cracks with electricity as the helmet clamps doen on
the man as he and grodd both scream.
the flash screamed out and fell on the floor, apparently
blanturn actually cared "Donovin!" "no! That's not the flash,
that's someone else!" "What.. what have you done to me!" The
flash runs away from the group into the watchtower. Blanturn
catches him in a sphere Of light but flash vibrates his
molecules and breaks out. He runs to the main teleporter and
grabs a engineer by the head. "Beam me out of here or I'm going
to vibrate these fingers and scramble your brains." "Do as he
says tony!" "No dont! We can't let him get away with flashes
body."
A Batarang hits the flash in the back as blanturn rescuces the
engineer, flash runs into the corridor as batman initiates
lockdown. A nanosecond before the doors close a red blur runs
through each door.
I remember waking up to diffrent faces. A woman with purple hair
talks "larry?" "Whoa."
"You guys stand back! Hey what happened to my voice?" Grodd says
"he cooked his own brain." The woman walks up but I ran down the
hall to the door "okay somethings really wrong here." "Larry,
you don't look at all well." "Ya I'm just a little winded you
say larry?" A group of the world's most powerful villans look at
me confused.
"Attention all decks, this is a station wide alert a man has
control of flashes body contain him at any cost use any force
nessary." "I don't want him hurt." "That's not the problem."
Batman shows him a screen of most of the justice league reserves
on the floor unconcious. "Star girl, captain atom, Mr terrific
all out of commission. Il l try to track his I'd badge... he's
in a storage room." "Come on!" "Just you and fate, th e red
something weird about this."
when they got to the storage room they found the badge alright,
just nothing else. "Ya it was a trick." "Damn it! I've sent back
up to the teleporters find him."
"Larry!" "Uhh how's it going?" "My darling this is no time to
show weakness the wolf is at the door." "Then call animal
control." "Dr. Polaris is this far from all out mutiny. Hes
dangerous, i want to punish him baby, so very badly." "Right,
sure. Uhh, just one question do I know you?" "You need to rest."
"you need to stop following me around." I go into the men's room
no villan would break that Rule. "Okay I'm trapped in a building
full of supervillans, I've lost my superpowers, and for some
reason that creepy girl thinks im." I look into the bathroom
mirror. "Vandal savage." I touch the mutton chops on the side of
his face "oh that is just wrong." I go into the stall to call
somone. "Larry, you alright?" "I'm fine. No service, are you
kidding." Dr. Polaris walks in "are we doing this or what?" "I
told him you wanted to be alone." "Were supposed to be going
over your big plan. We are still doi.g it right?" "Huh? I mean
the big plan right.. im. All over the big plan... so lets.. go
do that then." I walk out but he coughs "aren't you going to
wash your hands?" "No..... cause I'm evil."
The flash runs to a door and try every possible combination on
the key pad as blanturn and red tornado show up." "Give it up!"
Flash vibrates the door and it explodes as he runs through it.
"His vibrations create an unstable resonance." "Which is why the
real flash dosent do it."
Before me is a room full of the world's evilist villans "talk to
the crew lex." "My fellow bad guys, I Vandal savage. Your
leader, will now talk about my- vandal savages evil plan. My...
villanous villanous plan. Question the plan at your peril!" I
point for extra emphasis. "Uhh any questions?" "Your gonna pay
us for helping you right?" "Watch your step, you presume to
much.. one of these days, you'll presume to much." "Me got
answer." "Excellent bizarro, do enlighten us." "ever since you
plug into monkey head to act perfectly sane and rational, am you
bizarros mommy?" "Wait I got it! You evil head guy." "Ya?"
"What's your part in this plan?" "I don't have a part in this
plan." "......... exactly. Pop quiz, everyone who has a part in
this plan raise your hand." "Well here's the way you gave it to
us this morning. Braniac parts have fallen to the earth and you
want to coolest them all, once that's doen your going to do
something with it, we rob, you kill vole and the rest of the
mutants. And make sure one justice leaguer is put into the
dirt." "And why one?" "I don't know you never said, that's all
you told us about this thing."
"Whoa. I mean I am pleased carry on." The villans look as I walk
out of the room. "Really he is in perfect shape he only needs
little rest before plan." She catches up to me. "Rest in here
dsrling." She brings me into my room I guess "whoa.... that's
not very restful...."
The flash runs into a bathroom "your having a difficult day
vandal.... nothing less I guess I can make my brothers life
hell." He rips off the mask "......I have no idea who this
is......"
"Baby your so... diffrent.. so attentive so" "hey is that a
comms station wow I gotta check something." "Mr. Savage it's
grodd. He wants to speak with you." "Maaaan."
"You better not be wasting my time grodd." "I just had to see it
for myslef... flash." "Me the flash? You've totally lost it. I'm
vandsl savage." "And im Barack obama. I was in the circuit when
you two traded minds." "Okay look. He's got you in a cage lime a
lab rat he's humiliated you you hate him! help me outta here."
"Sure I hate savage. But I hate you even more." "so what you
gonna bust me?" "Where's the fun in that? I'm going to watch you
twist in the wind until they tear you limb from limb." the girl
walks in "larry we really need you to get ready." "Ah Tala my
old groupie.." thank you god I'd badges.
"They've got the fake flash cornered in the cafeteria."
The flash throws plastic spoons and forks and even worse ketchup
packets at the speed of light. Blanturn makes a shield. As
doctor fate comes in. Flash runs around ending at the buffet.
Fate makes a ball and chain attach to his feet causing him to
trip. Flash hops to fate and beats his helmet like a bongo drum.
He throws plates, milshakes, ad even cakes at the people. A cup
of jello makes it through blanturns shield and nails him in the
head. Flash runs off but comes back to eat everything not nailed
down. when blanturn gets up he runs again.
"Sir, headquarters is forwarding a message." "Attention, the man
you think is vandal savage is not him he is a justice leaguer
disguised as me." "I... vandal savage find that preposterous."
"tell me Something that only savage would know. What's my name?"
Damn d list villans.
"He's on the bridge repeat hes" Flash hits batman as he runs
towards the teleporter he rebuilds the machine and gers ready to
use it. Batman turns off the artifical gravity. "Speeds no good
without gravity." "that's where your wrong." Flash uses his arms
like a helicopter as batman turns it back on. "Doctor. Fate your
patient just anesthetized himself."
I see a bright light and I'm back on the watchtower. "Guys! I
was starting to think i was going out as the bottom of a
supervillan dog pile." "Sounds like donovin but how can we be
sure?" "Wan proof? Until louie became a green lantern his
nickname was" "stop! He's him. And you promise to never tell
anyone that." "What did you see? Where is their base located?"
"I don't know some swamp." "What's there plan?" "Get ready for
this."

Heroes. They're never quite what you expect them to be. For me
it was Jay Garrick, the first flash. I had to help turn a bitter
man who was done running to put on the hat once again, and I'm
proud to say mr. Garrick says I deserve to be called the flash.
"Only one with a faster exit then me." But with Blanturn...
guess it's still true here's never turn out the way you think.
Real or fiction.
It was a cool November night when some big green robot was
terrorising the city. Things... were not going well. The robot
pushed blanturn to the ground hard, if it wasint for supergirl
louie might have died right there. I took the opportunity to
undo it's leg plate. Only thing was, guy controlling it was off
the coast in a ship. Diddint realize that till the boy scout
showed up, he ripped open his back and bats used a Batarang and
hit it's core causing it to short circuit. Only thing was
blanturn, phillip, mm,and supergirl were still under the thing
and it was falling fast. I ran faster than I thought I could, it
gave off some weird energy thing and suddenly the night turned
to day.
"Ugggh did we win?" "I'm not sure." "Superman? Batman?" "Where'd
they go?" "Perhaps I can contact them. Wait." Maritan goes pale?
Well pale for being green and falls to the ground holding his
head. "what did you see?" Forgive me I'm fine." "Let's fan out
and find them." We all pick a direction and move. Me and
Blanturn met up at the park. "Somethings not right here." He was
right. We see a man in a early 30s Cadillac talking to a girl
ripped straight out of a ww2 movie. "Lookin swell sweetheart."
"Hee hee." And I can't make this part up, an old time ice cream
truck comes around the corner and looks us dead in the eye as he
drives past. "Those haven't been around since we were-" "hey
stop! I'll take a red rocket and add in the-" "what the hell are
you doing!" "Getting ice cream duh." "focus. Do you think we got
blasted to the past?" " I pick up a newspaper "nope. Dates the
same . The hells a seaboard city?" Suddenly an alarm bell goes
off.
the seaboard city music hall is being robbed by the nefarious
music meister. His pink jacket and slicked back orange hair
barely hold his evil cocky accent, he has stolen a priceless
violin and tries making his getaway in his clarinet car. "music
meister put your hands up and drop the stradivarius! " " Sorry
seargent I don't do requests." He plays his acordian and the car
blows up. He gets into the clarinet and drives away. Blanturn
flies above him "pull over Now!" "Your disguise can't fool me
green guardsmen." "green guardsmen?" "It's still the same song
and dance." He plays the acordian knocking him back And sending
him into the music hall. He breaks out of it and grabs the
stradivarius from his dastardly clutches. The music meister
drives away into defeat.
He hands me the stradivarius "Who was that guy?" "Did you hear
what he called me?" "Yea green guardsmen." A man shouts from the
rooftop he has a yellow shit with a blue t on it. "Perhaps you
haven't heard, in Seaboard city. Crime doesent pay!" He presses
a button on his belt and his hands growl with electricity. He
jumps down and runs to us. I hand blanturn back the stradivarius
and he hits him in the face.
he picks it up "you just knocked him out in one punch..... thank
you." I run and grab his belt whIle he blinks and run around the
park. "Lawbreakers will not be appreciated." A man in a cat
costume drives on a motorcycle and from the side car comes a
blonde woman who I hope is single. She kicks me in the face. As
the others show up "its seems we are not in Metroplis anymore."
A green drill hits the floor separating us as I see a old man in
green clothes with a blue cape. "Surrender villans you deal with
the green guardsmen." Supergirl flies towards him "whoever you
are your no green lantern." She gets trapped in a birdcage as I
chase after her. But as I run a yellow streak comes bolting
towards me... no it cant be... his red and yellow helmet and his
red shirt with the yellow lightning bolt tell me it is. "Your
pretty quick son, but villans never out runs justice." He hits
me and sends me flying next to a child "whoooooooo you go streak
go!"
Green guardsmen sends an anvil down on blantuen but he shoots a
beam through it breaking the construct.
"Wham! pow! Give it to him green guardsmen!" Phillip deals with
the two spandex clad people when thunder gauntlets hits him and
sends him into thr building above the kid. I zoom to save him
before he gets crushed. The streak sees me and stops fighting he
runs in the middle of everyone "stop! Stand down all of you! No
one would risk his life for another and be evil, maybe our two
teams should talk."
We arrive at a mansion "please make yourselves at home. Allow us
to introduce ourselves. I'm the streak." "catman." "black
siren." "Green guardsmen." "Tom turbine." And we are the justice
guild of america!" "Ughhh ya I'm blanturn, that's green lantern,
that's flash on your couch, supergirl is the one trying to get
flash off your couch and Marian man hunter is the green guy."
"And this is our official justice guild junior justice guilds
man ray tomphson. " "golly I want to be a superhero when I grow
up." "As long as your remember to eat right and stay in school."
Mm has an attack and holds his head. "Uhh dizzy so strange."
Siren walks up and says "I think i have some freshly baked
cookies and a tall glass of milk for your friend. Let's let the
men talk." She grabs karas arm "the men can talk all they like."
That's when I step in "could you excuse us." "I will not be
patronized by that woman." We need answers here, so maybe just
this once play along?" She puts on a fake smile "soo you bake
cookies and fight crime. How do you do it?" "This cant be real."
"Hah tell me about it. Talk about campy." "It's not that, it's
the justice guild. They were a comic book I used to read when we
were kids. These are the stars it's insane. I know it's corny
but, these guys taught me what it means to be a hero... hey why
is his name the streak and your name was the-" "wow I can't wait
to do some competely original ideas I'm gonna come back!" The
girls come back with the food "hey cookie." "one more word and
you'll be the fastest man alive with a limp."
Meanwhile at the Legion of no good guys
"We face a new threat.new heroes. The same looks and the same
amazing powers." The man with the baseball cap and twirling the
basketball also known as the says "your striking out music
meister the guild stopped tour crimes and rather than admit you
droped the ball you blame new heroes." "cool it soprtsmaster."
"You want a piece of me doctor blizzard?" He takes out a
baseball but it turns into flowers. "Enough! I propose a
contest. each of us will pull off a spectacular crime and the
one who gets the best stuff sill make the plan to destroy the
justice guild."
"I have a theory on how you came to this plane. As an expert in
nuclear physics I have long hypothesized-" "Ya Tom flash fact:
there are an infinite number of parallel universes each contains
it own Earth same place in time and space with little changes."
"Did you know that you flash matched the vibration rate of our
earth?" "well, shit" "he created a tear in the dimensional
barriers which brought us here." "It's not like I meant to!"
"This sill dosent explain the justice guild comics I read as a
kid." "Flash fact: what if those writers had a subconscious link
to this world? What they thought was fiction was really them
writing about events in parallel dimensions." "I couldint have
put it better myslef." "Facing ting how do we get back to our
world?" Tom leads us to a machine "I've been tinkering with a
prototype transdimensional gateway." "Cool how's it work?" "I do
not have a suitable energy source to power it yet." "well, shit"
a doorbell rings "seargent o'seanussey. What a please t
surprise." "Sorry to bother ya but we recover this letter as
fast as we could not as fast as yourselves of course." "Well fro
someone without superspeed ya fid just fine." To the justice
guild, prepare for are most evil plot yet. A crime spree based
on the 4 elements of the world. Catch us I'd you can, dastardly
yours the injustice guild." "jeepers." "what kind of criminals
tip off the authorites?" "The worst kind." "Justice league we
need your help." "Count on us." "Ray, the decoder rings." He
runs and brings back a box of rings with the JGA symbol on them.
As they hand them out. "Wow they used to be able to order wings
just like these out of the old comic books." "We should split
into teams." I run next to black siren "we should take the
person to our left. So I guess it's you and me huh?" "Can I come
can i?" "I don't think that's a-" "sure ya can!"
Green guardsmen and supergirl Fly off into one direction as I
carry the siren in my arms. The streak and phillip go as
blanturn and Tom turbine stay behind.
Team black lightning moves
"Obviously the clue fire can only mean one thing they plan to
steal the flame of rssputine." "You know your stuff." "It's an
honor to fight beside you." "The feelings mutual your a credit
to your people son." Streak runs off "thank, wait what the
fuck!"
"Citizens of seaboard city. I'm proud to unveil this new
fountain as a symbol to what I will do to this city!" The
fountain freezes "freeze! If you excuse me mr mayor Il l be
leaving with my chill gotten gains!" "chill out blizzard!" I
kick him in the face. "We're putting you on ice!" "Forgive me if
I give you the cold choulder." ice shoots from his shoulder. As
we barley dodge them.
"I'm just getting warmed up!" I run around him and take his
stethoscope. "Like i said you never had a snowballs chance in
hell!" Suddenly a tnt truck goes on a. Head on Collison with a
bus full of nuns!
I run and drive it to a building but the brakes don't work. The
blast sends me back "our cold ey?" He freezes the both of us.
After supergirl fails to stop her target as well. She gets up in
the cemetery. She finds a grave marked
here lies Scott mason

"It's true I saw their Graves!" "But it dosent make any sence."
"Look I don't know who that is but the real green guardsmen is
dead and so is the rest of them." "No I don't belive it!"
Blanturn flys off "he seems to have taken that quite personaly."
"Ill get hims, wait here for flash."
Meanwhile at the injustice guild
"Gentlemen that's why I lead the league in steals." Sports
master places an antique baseball trophy on the table. "Don't be
so fast to toot your own horn sorts master." He points to a
wright brothers prototype plane hanging in the rafters." "Then
it appears we have a hat trick." He pulls the diamond out of
nowhere. "Leaving doctor blizzard out in the cold." "not quite."
He rides in on the block of ice that has the two heroes in it.
"I'd say this entitles me to victory in our nefarious contest."
"Bravo!" "That's a home run!" the flash melts the ice around his
head allowing him to speak "what are you gonna do now doc? Turn
us into snow cones?" "No i have plans."
The guild sirs around waiting as Martian manhunter comes in
"still no word?" "No." The phone rings as the streak runs for
it. "Maybe this is it." "The injustice guild has just robbed the
seaboard city mint. And there getting away by blimp!" "Only they
would commit such a heinous act. And on a sunday! the injustice
guilds on the move." "Then we should to." They all put there
hands in "let justice prevail!" As they run off.
Supergirl flies and finds blanturn infront of the Graves.
"Louie, I'm sorry." "You were right, there gone. All of them."
"Then who are those people?" "I don't know but I intend to get
some answers." He looks at his JGA ring and flies off.
The ice cream truck turns a corner and blanturn stops the car
with a construct stop sign. "What can I do you folks for?" "What
can you tell us about those Graves on the hill?" "sorry, I gotta
finish my route." "Why? You don't have any customers I noticed
you before you never stopped." "Buisness has been kinda dead."
"Whens the last time you actually sold ice cream?" "Please no
more questions. He might hear you!" "Who?" "I cant say!" He
drives off away from the two.
The jga arrive to see the dastardly blimp going two miles above
the legal speed limit. "I'll let the air out of there Baloon."
"Not so fast guardsmen look!" On the outside of the blimp frozen
onto it are black siren and the flash. "Holy hostages catman!"
TI'm turbine Martian manhunter green lantern and guardsmen fly
up ad the sports master and the music meister open the doors.
"Cue the orchestra." "Fore!" Meister uses his acordian as master
tees off. Manhunter and and Tim turbine go doen bur are rescued
by guardsmen and the streak. Catman rides up a building on his
motorcycle gets in the elevator and drives the rest up the
stairs and jumps onto the blimp. He uses his catarangs to get
inside. "Don't bother welcoming me aboard."
"The library?" "I wanna brush up on my history." They walk in
and the place is deserted dust and darkness fills the halls.
Blanturn picks a book and it's blank. Same for the next, and the
next. "They're all useless!" "Let's check the newspaper archives
in the bssement." When they open the door there's a brick wall.
"Why am I not surprised." "I've had enough!" she Burts through
the brick wall. "Ladies first." They walk down. And there before
them is a destroyed subway station. "Must have been an
earthquake or something." "Supergirl steps on a newspaper "no
these are battle scars." The per reads "peace talks break down,
war imminent."
"The date it's 40 years ago, the same day as the last justice
guild comic."
"Prepare to be foiled catman!" Sports master runs at him but
he's thrown to the ground. Catman runs and picks up a gold club
"en garde."
Black siren struggles "it's no use well never get free!" "Oh you
want to get free? I thought you wanted to talk!" He pops the
blimp with one of his wing tips. "decorative and functional."
Alakazam falls out of the blimp but is saved by green lantern.
As the blimp comes crashing down catman throws all the people
out o thr blimp "time to bail!" They land on the ground Safley.
"woooo that was amazing! When black siren fell and flash caught
her and Tom was like boosh and catman was like djahe gosh that
was the best battle yet!" "You bet billy." "Ray." "Rick, well
take em away!" The cops drive off. "Is it just me or are they
the only cops in the city?"
The team walks back into the mansion.
"then at the last economy green guardsmen was like boosh and
jsgssb!" Blanturn and supergirl sit at the table. "Some friends,
good thing the justice guild was there to save me." "They're not
the justice guild." "Say what?" "You heard me they are not the
justicee guild!" "How could you say that? There my heroes!"
"That's right ray, do you have any proof buster?" "No you
explain this!" He holds up a newspaper that reds "JGA Killed in
battle."
"It's a hoax some kinda joke!" "It's no joke. The real streak,
green guardsmen, Tom turbine all of you. Your all dead I've seen
your Graves." "He can't be serious... can he?" The phone rings.
"We're on our way sergeant. We're needed downtown." Blanturn
covers the exit. "Nobody is going anywhere. Haven't you noticed
nothing here makes sence? Library books with no words, ice cream
truck that never stop." "dangers that spring up every time
someone gets close to the truth." "what truth?" Asks the
guardsmen. "That this world is an illusion. A living memory of a
civilization destroyed 40 years ago. That's why they stopped
making the comic book in our world.. no more justice guild." "If
what you say is true who or what is cresting this illusion?"
Asks Tom turbine. "I suggest you ask ray." "ray?" "Why would I
know anything?" "Because you are the source." Manhunter melds
minds and rhe illusion fails. Ray shrinks to three feet. His
putrid pink skin and over grown brain are almost as bad as his
severely cleft lip and one giant eye filled with crust. "Your
ruined it. You ruined everything!" he unleashes a py sonic
blast. "That's it I officialy want to go home."
"It's over ray." "it's been ovbefore. I changed that." I run
towards him and the floor melts and I get stuck in place.
Supergirl runs at him but is hit by a chair. Blantuen hits him
but a pyonic shield forms around him. "This is my world I decide
who wins and who loses." Manhunter grabs his head but the
feedback knocks him out. Supergirl hist the shield but is hit by
the jga crest.
"The justice league needs are help!" Guardsmen says "wait!
Defeating ray could mean the destruction of our world and
everything in it." They all look at each other and put there
hands in "let justice prevail!" They all run towards ray. Streak
hits him as turbine sends a Shockwave "in Seaboard city. crime
doesn't pay." Catman and siren start to hit the shield as
turbine throws a pillar at him. The strap runs around him
creating a vortex as everyone starts to hit him at the same
time. Ray clenched his head in pain. As the illusion fails. The
city is reaveled. With one last look the streak waves goodbye
to blanturn as they dissappear. They crumble to dust along with
eh ring on his hand. The destruction of the city is reveled.
Body's lay in the streets, the once green meadow now a desert.
And no buildings stand. "he couldint maintain the illusion."
"But how did he get like that?" "The nuclear fallout mutated him
giving the py chic abilities to create worlds." "So he chose to
create a word around the heroes he worshiped as a child." "Who
could blame him?" "So what now?" "I have an idea."
"Turbine said he was working on a transdimensional gateway." the
machine is coated with 40 years of rust and dust "what goods it
gonna do?" "We....have no way to power this." "Maybe I can."
"What flash ple-" "I brought us here by matching the vibrations
of this earth, so If I do it again." The machine springs to life
as the group can barley see flash. "Could you all pleae move
through the gate now!" Once everyone goes through he runs inside
leaving that world behind.

"You okay louie?" "It's stupid. Why should i feel like this? I

Flash fact: not all diffrent universes are full of the good
guys. I learned that the hard way. And no matter how hard you
try to save your counterparts. Sometimes there dead on arrival.
WASHINGTON DC
Bullets bounce off the man of steels head as he moves through
the secret service. "almost there, what about you Two?" Batman
knocks out an agent and runs up the stairs "coming." Wonder
woman blocks the bullets with her bracers "I'll catch up in a
minute."
Superman breaks into the president's office and finds vandal
savage waiting there. "They couldint see the beauty, no
inagination. They'd rather fight." "Even this wasint enough! You
wanted it all!" "It could have been so perfect, paradise." "I
let it get this far because of the law." "Ha the law? it's a the
people fault. And there going to burn for it, burn!" "Your
nothing but a mad dog." "Ooh a threat." "There are at least six
diffrent ways I could stop you." "But they all involve dead
force, and you don't do that. No you need me. You wouldint be
much of a hero without a villan. And you love being a hero." "If
this is what it means to be a hero I don't want to be one
anymore." "Put me on tiral, lock me up. I'll get out, then we
start it all over again." His eyes light up with a Red energy.
wonder woman gets batman off the ground "thanks. You smell
something burning?" They look at each other with a shocked
glance and run to the office. They see the burned almost corpse
of vandal savage and Superman looking outside a window. "Well,
it had to be done." "Are you okay?" "I'm great."
WATCHTOWER 10 YEARS LATER
John jonz AKA the Martian manhunter await's reports from all the
sectors on earth. and Superman talks to the new president. "no
not right now." "but it's kinda A fall tradition like halloween,
and football. folks won't be happy." "They seem happy enough to
me. and an election isint like football." "Sure bur when do ya
think itd be a good time to have one?" "Patience mr. President
patience."
Blanturn looks out the window of the watchtower "I keep
expecting him to zip in any minute." "and saying something
really stupid right?" Says hawkgirl. "Well there was that." "I
miss him to louie." Manhunter calls the two to the bridge "civil
disturbance in sector 33." "Were there." "It's a peaceful
protest the police have it under control." "Only takes on spark
to start a fire." "If your that set to go, go ahead. as long as
your down there try to get batman out of that cave of his."
"Deal."
SMALLVILLE
"You sure you don't want to help us out?" "To much to do." "Come
on itl be like old times." "I hate old times."
The police throw tear gas into the crows of protestor and they
begin beating them with there batons. As blanturn and hawkgirl
arrive the remains protestors run off. "remember when everyone
liked us?" "Since when did that matter to you?" "Since I saw the
fear on peoples faces."
"Cold." "It's gazpacho it's supposed to be." "No i mean the way
your acting, are you going to tell me what's wrong?" " what's
wrong? The world's on permenent lock down, free speech is all
but dead and you want to know what's wrong!" "Lois we've been
over this a thousand times why can't you see the bigger
picture!" His communicator goes off "ah love." "What do you want
Bruce." "I need you and the others to see this." "Not Now."
"Now!" "I gotta go."
Batman shows them a Montitor of the justice league defeating
doctor light. "What Is this? Some old video?" "They're having
this fight right now." "They?" "Were looking at another
dimension. Live." "It's just like ours." "Almost, but their
flash is still alive." "sos their savage." "Theres something
else. They don't call themselves the justice lords. They call
themselves the justice league." "It's sad, their world's the
mess ours used to be." "To bad we can't help them." "Who says we
can't?" He shows them a machine that lights up with a Portal.
"This can take us into the other dimension." "If we use it."
"Why wouldint they?" "Your talking about helping them. But would
they except our kind of help?"
Savage runs Down a Hallway with Blanturn in hot pursuit. Savage
knocks down a pillar and blantuen IA about to be crushed when
flash runs and saves him getting stuck in the process. Superman
lifts the pillar "I told you Not to take your eyes off him not
for a second!" "Hey I had to okay? There's some things even I
can't do in A blink of an eye.
Savage runs into a experimental technology wing and tinkers with
a type of gun. "What is that?" Hawkgirl says Batman gets a
Batarang "breakable I hope."
He fires It but the flash dismantles the gun and hits him
sending him back. Vandal grabs the power source of the equipment
and puts it in his pocket. "I'll be out in days." "Not with a
broken leg you wont." Suddenly a portal opens and the Martian
manhunter steps out. "Who are you?" "I'm you."
"And the dimensions appear to be collapsing o each other, batman
made this tech to bridge between realities to find help." "but
what can we do?" "Were not sure but my dimension seems to be at
the center of it and that's the best place to start looking."
"So we'll go?" "Sure let's move." They move through the portal
and end up in a White room "hey don't you guys belive in door
and windows?" "I'm sorry." He phases out of the room as
electricity knocks everyone out. "They'll thank us later."
Hawkgirl slowly gets up and bangs on the door breaking it open
but is hit by a Green fist.
A meteor crashes on earth and doomsday comes out of it and
begins to terrorize metroplis.
Superman arrives "what do you want?" "Same as you I imagine,
power control. I had to see what the planet had to offer I am
not impressed. You think you can hurt me? My skin can withstand
a nuclear explosion!" Superman uses his heat vision and lasers
through his head giving him a lobotomy.
Vandal savague watches from his tv "its not them."

BLACK GATE PRISON
Batman watches the justice league in there cells. He stops
outside of batmans. "I have one question. Why?" "Because you and
your friends couldint do what needed to be done." Batman moves
toward his belt and- "there are mecury switches at your hands
and feet. One move and I'll know it." He moves to the flashes
cell He watches as he struggles. "What do you looking at, huh?"
"Calm down, you'll appriciate this some day." "ya? I don't think
hawkgirl will appriciate you sending her to the hospital." "that
was an accident she's in the best care we-" "I don't wanna hear
it." "Belive me, the last thing we want is to lose another" "A
other what!" Batman walks away.
"i think he likes you." "Must be my magnetic personality." "more
likely it has to do with what hapoend to this wolrds flash."
"You mean hes-" "all this had tobbe set off vy something." "but
to go this fsr. Even over me." "It isint that fsr off from what
wed do." "You gotta plan?" "No." "No, as in not right now?" "No,
as in I'm not thinking of one."
Flash tries to vibrate his hand but it doesent work.
Batman looks over them all and he sees the flash heart rate
skyrocket. He sees him struggle until it flatlines. "Flash!" he
runs down and opens thr door and uncuffs him. Flash hits him and
puts him in the cuffs before he can react. He runs to batmans
cell and starts on the key pad. "What are you doing?" "Trying
every combination." "91939" the doors open. "How'd ya know?"
"There the numbers I use.How'd you get out?" "Sped up my heart
rate till it looked like i flatlined." "You can do that?" "Guess
so. I had to do something if you weren't going to." "I couldint,
not with him anticipating my every move. But who could
anticipate you."
After the other get free superman starts to walk. "I don't know
about the rest of you but I'm ready to kick some-" "you're gonna
have to wait on that. they have hawkgirl in a hospital
somewhere." "You need to find out where theve hidden her." "This
is your city." "Sorry I have to find a portal." Batman grapples
away.
The flash looks up every hospital in gotham. "They'd never put
her in that one. There's no security." "They wouldint put her in
that one. No equipment." Blanturn says "wait a minute. In this
world were thr bad guys. So where would you send the bad guys
around here?"
AKRHAM ASYLUM
The once rainy and decrepit asylum is now sunny and clean. The
flash moves first but is stopped by superman. "You should stay
back. In this world your dead remember?" "Oh like the costumes
won't tip them off?" "Well say it's a fashion choice." The
others move up leaving flash to pick roses in the garden.
Ignoring the "do not pick flowers" sign.
They move to the man behind the desk. "We need to see one of the
inmates." the Joker turns around and the laser burns on his
skull are apparnet. "Certainly superman. Right this way." He
leads them through the main hall and all the rogues of batmans
gallery are there. All with the same laser burns Except for the
ventriloquist who had them on scarface, poor puppet.
He leads them to a door. "one thing, today's passcode?"
Manhunter reads his thoughts "applesauce." "applesauce." "right,
but wonder woman was supposed to say it!" He hits the panic
button and runs off "tattletale." Out comes superman "you must
be stopped." "a robot?" "I built mine to takeover while I was
away!"
Batman arrives at the cave and reached the portal. A Batarang
hits his cape and he hits his parallel. he gets kicked to a
nearby cliff. "I knew you'd come here. Just like i know your
going to do that÷" Batman uses a grapple and flies up to the
shadows of the cave. "what are you hiding for?" "I do my best
work in the dark." "I used to think that to but what have you
ever really accomplished from there? Aside from scaring a few
punks and putting a few in jail?" "It all adds up." Not fast
enough. If you really want to make a diffrence if you want to
change the system instead of patching it take over like we did."
The flash waits outside as a green woman walks up to him "your
not supposed to pick the flowers." "Ahh!" "It's fine, this stuff
doesent bother me much anymore. Nothing bothers me much anymore.
But you should watch our for Superman." an explosion is heard
and a robotic superman head goes flying and hits his feet. "You
wanna walk around? My friends don't want my help." "Okay."
"Think about it. A world where there's no crime. No victims, no
pain." "and no choice." the parallel appears and batman hits him
with a Batarang sending him into the darkness. "Who elected you
anyway!" "Who elected you!" "The problem with democracy is it
dosent keep you very safe." "It has other virtues." "I chose
peace and security instead." "You grabbed power!" "And with that
Power we've made sure no 8 year old boy will ever lose his
parents again!" Batman puts down his Batarang and drops down.
"You win."
The flash runs in to see the inside o the asylum torn up and
robot parts fly everywhere. One ties to hit him but he keeps
dodging it until he kicks it and breaks it onto pieces.
Blanturn grabs hawkgirl and the group runs out to the full force
of the american army. Batman jumps down "Hold it! These are my
prisoners and I'm taking them in!" "You got the right costume
but how do I know your not one of them?" Batman walks up to him
"are you challenging my authority seargent?" "everyone back off.
There his." Batman walks back to the group "we leave through the
back." Superman says"Nice job, for a minute I thought you were
him." "I am him."
BATMAN
"So without your flash the justice lords went rogue?" "It wasint
that simple." "Hey he was the concicous of your group. Which
makes me-" "come on jiminy. " blanturun calls flash over. They
all travel through the portal.
Batman stops superman "there as strong as us and just as smart.
But there willing to kill." "What a re you saying that we need
to be willing to? I won't cross that line!" "How else can we
stop them?" "Your the smart one, you figure it out." "We can't
beat them without crossing some kind of line."
WATCHTOWER
Manhunter goes to the group "it's vandsl savage." "He escaped
again?" "Yes and he's taken a hostage." Wonder woman says "don't
do it." "Why not worked pretty well back home." "But here
they're not ready for it." "Well see."
RIKERS ISLAND
Savage moves through the halls and the justice lords break
through the walls. Superman grabs savage. "Wheres the hostsge."
"There never was one." Manhunter gets out of shapeshifting.
"Sorry." They get stuck by the prisoner control electrical
system but hawking channel it through her mace. She breaks out
and blanturn hits her with a blast from his ring knocking her
out. The two manhunters start to fight one another in the sky.
As the two blanturns take the bottom. Wonder woman throwe wonder
woman with her lasso and Superman is pelted with rocks at the
speed of sound by the flash. He quickly runs out of them.
Superman tries to hit him but flash dodges "right here big guy."
he punches but the flash grabs it and runs around with the arm
and throwe superman into a nearby building. "Cool."
Flash enters the building and looks at the new skylight. "wow
Supes you really know how to bring down the house." Superman
punches flash and sends him into the wall. He grabs him but
stops "can't do it can you? This is the one thing you'll never
do." "I've done a lot of things I thought I'll never do. One
more won't hurt." "Hold it!" Superman looks and sees himself
next to vandal savage. "Nice company. Must be your true colors."
"It's just one of the hard choices I've had to make. Go for it."
"Oh yes." He hita superman with a beam from a gun. Hawkgirl come
after him but is hit as well Martian manhunter and wonder woman
get hit also knocking them unconcious." "it's a power disruptor
and yours are now gone."
"I knew you wouldn't be able to change his mind." "Yea, how?"
"Because I've felt the same temptations." "not so much of a boy
scout are you?" "Never even made it to my first merit badge."
"But what about the weapon savage!" The villans look at him for
an answer. "I belive superman has it, part of our arrsngement."
"so what's our next heist?" "Oh I've done the criminal thing for
centuries. Maybe I'll try my hand at politics."

---------------------------------------------------------
Wonder Woman, A.K.A. Diana of Themyscira, drummed her long
fingers along the titanium console impatiently. She had monitor
duty with Flash, which essentially meant that she had monitor
duty, as the Fastest Man Alive (TM) could rarely sit still long
enough to do any actual monitoring. To be fair, there really
wasn't much going on down on Earth that needed to be taken care
of – in fact, that was the primary source of Diana's irritation.
After all, spending any extended period of time with no one but
the hyperactive Wally West for company would be enough to make
anyone feel an intense desire to hit something.
Still, she hadn't heard a peep out of the Flash for a few
minutes – an inordinate amount of time for him. He'd spend the
greater part of the past few hours flitting around the control
room, expressing his boredom and generally finding new and
innovative ways to avoid paying attention to the various screens
displaying images of everyday life on the blue planet below.
Flash had left the room ten minutes before, saying that he
wanted a quick snack – which meant, if Diana's calculations were
correct, he should have been back nine minutes and thirty
seconds ago.
Oh well, Diana wasn't one to complain about a moment's peace and
quiet. No sooner had she thought this, however, than did a rush
of air and rustle of paper signal her young colleague's return.
It took all of her training and Amazon-bred discipline not to
audibly sigh in exasperation. She was surprised to see, however,
that rather than playing with the controls and making the
British Parliament appear a sickly shade of green, he was
chewing thoughtfully on a blue pen and reading what appeared to
be a computer printout.
"Flash?" she asked, wondering what could be so interesting that
it would keep him silent for minutes on end.
"Hmm?" he replied after a moment, looking up from the papers in
his hand but still accosting the unfortunate pen with his teeth.
"What are you reading?"
"Oh, just this Myers-Briggs test I printed out. Apparently I'm
an ENFP."
Diana blinked, resolving not even to pretend that she had
understood a word that had come out of Flash's mouth. "Pardon
me?"
"Oh, uh, it's basically a personality test. You answer a bunch
of questions, total your score in four different categories, and
it places you in one of sixteen groups. I'm extroverted,
intuitive, feeling, and perceptive – ENFP."
Diana couldn't help rolling her eyes at the notion. "So you
expect me to believe that there are only sixteen types of people
in the world?"
"Naw, they're really basic guidelines. And it's not like you
should take a test like this totally seriously – it even says
so. Still, it seems pretty accurate..."
"Really?" Diana asked, becoming interested in spite of herself.
"What does it say about you?"
"Look for yourself," he said, removing the piece of paper he had
been reading from the messy pile he was holding and handing it
to her.
Diana looked at the heading of the paper and quirked an eyebrow.
"The Inspirer?" she asked incredulously, wondering why a
professional psychiatric test would use such clichéd
terminology.
"Yeah, they give a title to each of the sixteen types.
'Inspirer' is easier to remember than 'ENFJ.'"
"ENFP," Diana corrected.
"Case in point!" Flash replied, his mouth twisting into a
half-cocked grin. Diana, meanwhile, kept reading.
"'ENFPs are warm, enthusiastic people, typically very bright and
full of potential. They live in the world of possibilities, and
can become very passionate and excited about things.'" Diana
paused. "Enthusiastic, fine, but 'bright and full of
potential?'"
"Ack, Princess, you wound me!" Wally cried, clutching his chest
melodramatically.
"'To onlookers, the ENFP may seem directionless and without
purpose, but ENFPs are actually quite consistent, in that they
have a strong sense of values which they live with throughout
their lives. Everything that they do must be in line with their
values.'" Diana actually stopped to consider the merit of that
statement – for all his hyperactivity and usual
irresponsibility, Flash had indeed proven time and again that he
was more than capable of getting serious if the need should
truly arise; and no one would question his own strong, if
somewhat simplistic, grasp of morality.
"'ENFPs sometimes make serious errors in judgment,'" Diana
continued, now bearing a definite smirk. "Well, at least
portions of this are accurate."
"You know, I'm starting to regret showing you this thing," Flash
said with mock irritation.
"'They're constantly aware and somewhat fearful of losing touch
with themselves.'" Diana again looked up at her red-clad
colleague. "Is that true?"
"Well, yeah, I guess," he replied after a moment, shrugging and
attempting to appear nonchalant. "Then again, I think it's sort
of part of this whole superhero deal." Diana nodded, the memory
of fighting their power-mad doppelgangers all too fresh in her
mind.
Nevertheless, she could not help but doubt the validity of a
multiple choice test that claimed to diagnose something as
complicated as a human personality. Diana returned to staring
disinterestedly at the glowing monitors, assuming Flash had done
the same. However, when she turned to her coworker, she found
that he had resumed reading through the large pile of papers and
gnawing on his blue pen.
"What are you doing now?" she asked impatiently, wondering why
he would still be skimming that printout, having finished
reading his own results.
"Oh, I'm just looking through the other categories. Trying to
guess who would fit where..." He trailed off, shuffling through
the pile and yanking out one more piece of paper. "I say,
eight-to-five odds, Superman would end up here."
Diana took the paper, reading the bolded heading aloud. "ISTJ –
The Duty Fulfiller." She skimmed over the sheet in her hand.
ISTJ's have a strongly-felt internal sense of duty, which lends
them a serious air and the motivation to follow through on
tasks.
ISTJs are very loyal, faithful, and dependable. They place great
importance on honesty and integrity. They're not comfortable
with breaking laws or going against the rules. If they are able
to see a good reason for stepping outside of the established
mode of doing things, the ISTJ will support that effort.
They like to be accountable for their actions, and enjoy being
in positions of authority.
"You're right," Diana said, having finished reading the paper in
her hands. "This does sound like Clark." 'Eerily so,' she added
internally, but did not say aloud.
"See?" said Wally with a self-satisfied smile plastered on his
face. "Oh, and who does this remind you of?" he asked, handing
Diana yet another portion of his printout.
The Mechanic - ISTPs have a compelling drive to understand the
way things work. They're good at logical analysis, and like to
use it on practical concerns.
They thrive on action, and are usually fearless. ISTPs are
fiercely independent, needing to have the space to make their
own decisions about their next step.
ISTPs like and need to spend time alone, because this is when
they can sort things out in their minds most clearly. They
absorb large quantities of impersonal facts from the external
world, and sort through those facts, making judgments, when they
are alone.
ISTPs are excellent in crisis situations. They're usually good
athletes, and have very good hand-eye coordination. They are
good at following through with a project, and tying up loose
ends.
"Batman," she said without hesitation, smiling at the almost
frighteningly accurate description.
"Yep, that's what I was thinking," Flash agreed, nodding.
"Especially the bits about a 'grim emotional state' and 'wanting
no part in confining relationships.'" His hand flew to his mouth
a split second after saying so, however, Wonder Woman's glare
indicating that he had, as usual, put his foot in his mouth.
"Uh, right, so I'm just going to go back to watching the screens
now," he stammered, taking a sudden interest in the U.S. House
of Representatives.
A solid minute passed before Diana spoke again. "What group do
you think I would fit into?" Diana asked, her curiosity once
more getting the better of her, despite knowing full well where
such a conversation would lead.
"Not sure. Wanna take the test and find out?" he asked
hopefully.
Diana had not yet had a chance to respond when a small packet
was thrust into her face, having been removed from the pile of
papers that was now sitting atop the console.
"I printed out an extra test in case you were interested," Flash
said sheepishly, responding to her questioning look.
Diana hesitated. "We really should be watching—"
"I'll watch them," Flash interrupted, holding up one hand as if
to silence Diana's concerns. "It's a slow day anyway, I'll tell
you if I see anything."
Diana's lips twisted into something of a cross between a smile
and a grimace, knowing she had backed herself into a proverbial
corner. She sighed, mumbling that there wasn't much else to do.
"I'll need something to write with," she said, looking
distastefully at what had been the end of his blue pen.
"Oh, heh, I'll get you another pen," he said, discarding the
chewed-up remains of the one he had been using. He looked around
the control room briefly before spotting and retrieving a
ballpoint pen, this one black, at the other end of the room.
Diana began reading over and pondering the questions on the
papers in front of her, noting how they fluctuated between more
general queries and highly specific questions regarding everyday
habits.
Do you tend to act on emotion or logic? Do you avoid
confrontation when possible?
Would you consider yourself argumentative?
Do you prefer wearing dark, solid colors or bright, vibrant
patterns?
If you had to choose between losing your sight and your sense of
hearing, which would you pick?
She opted to avoid wondering about the relevance of some of the
questions on the paper, instead answering them to the best of
her ability. Within 15 minutes, she had completed the short test
and began totaling her score. Extroverted... Sensory...
Thinking... Judgmental.
"ESTJ," she said aloud, getting Flash's attention. Flash, who
had again taken to playing with the tint and color controls for
the room's monitors, rushed back to his increasingly messy pile
of papers.
"Lemme see...ah-ha!" he cried triumphantly, fishing out the
profile in question. "The Guardian."
"Hand it over," Diana said seriously.
"Nope, I wanna read it first!" he said with a laugh, rushing to
the opposite wall to prevent Diana's confiscation of her
personality synopsis. He skimmed the paper before laughing
aloud. "Ahh, this is great!" he cackled.
"Oh, for Zeus' sake, what does it say?" Diana asked with a
glare.
"Ahem," Flash cleared his throat noisily. "'They live in the
present, with their eye constantly scanning their personal
environment to make sure that everything is running smoothly and
systematically. They honor traditions and laws, and have a clear
set of standards and beliefs.'"
"And what's wrong with that?" Diana asked confrontationally –
she had always prided herself on her high standards and sense of
personal dignity.
"Let me finish. 'They expect the same of others, and have no
patience or understanding of individuals who do not value these
systems.'"
"Quiet, you," Diana replied, though she had to admit that this
was a fairly accurate appraisal.
"'They are self-confident and aggressive,'" Flash continued.
"Yadda yadda yadda... 'They can sometimes be very demanding and
critical, because they have such strongly held beliefs, and are
likely to express themselves without reserve if they feel
someone isn't meeting their standards.'" He allowed a moment for
that to sink in before moving on.
"'ESTJs can be very boisterous and fun at social events.'"
Again, he paused. "Well, I never said these things were totally
accurate," he remarked with a wide grin.
"Give me that!" Diana yelled, striding across the room and
snatching the paper from Wally's hands.
Their expressions can be taken at face-value, because the ESTJ
is extremely straightforward and honest.
The ESTJ needs to watch out for the tendency to be too rigid,
and to become overly detail-oriented. Since they put a lot of
weight in their own beliefs, it's important that they remember
to value other people's input and opinions.
She couldn't help smiling when she had finished reading the
paper in front of her. Perhaps she had been too critical of this
'Myers-Briggs' test earlier. After all, it appeared to do just
what it professed: place people in one of sixteen very general
categories, simply for the sake of intellectual curiosity.
"Uh, Princess?" Flash asked, bringing Diana back to the present.
"Penny for your thoughts?"
"Actually," she said, looking at her partner for the day, "I was
just thinking..." she trailed off, seeking to build suspense.
"Thinking what?" Flash cried anxiously, his tone straddling the
fine line between shouting and whining.
Diana crumpled the paper in her hands and flung it directly at
Wally's nose. "That we should get back to our actual jobs," she
said, taking her seat once more.
Flash rolled his eyes and sighed dramatically. "Yeah, yeah,
whatever you say," he said, making his own way back to the
console.
Wonder Woman was not, however, able to hide the hint of smile
that remained on her face.
A few hours later, a loud beeping rang throughout the
Watchtower, signaling the arrival of Green Lantern and Superman,
ready to relieve Flash and Wonder Woman. Louie entered the main
control room first, pleasantly surprised to see that there had
been no bloodshed, despite Hawkgirl's bets regarding Flash's
unwanted advances. Fortunate – GL would have hated to lose ten
dollars and a teammate.
"So, you managed to get through the day without getting your ass
kicked. I'm impressed," Louie quipped, directing his comment at
the sitting Flash.
Donovin and Diana looked at one another before he responded.
"Well, she might have wanted to, but that would probably
conflict with her clear set of standards and beliefs," he said,
suppressing a chuckle.
"Besides," Diana noted with a smile, "I'm sure we all would have
missed his inspiring presence." This time, Flash could not hold
back the laughter, and within a few seconds Wonder Woman had
joined in the seemingly impromptu display of mirth.
Clark and Louie, meanwhile, stared in utter confusion at the
scene before them. What had happened in the past twenty-four
hours?
Flash soon calmed down and leapt out of his chair. "Well, I'm
heading out." He looked pointedly at Superman. "Wouldn't want to
get in the way of you fulfilling your duties," he said with a
smirk, evoking another giggle from Diana, who was also making to
leave.
"Call if you need me," she said as she left the control room.
"Ditto," called Donovin, rushing out the large metallic doors.
The next few moments passed without a word as Superman and GL
stared at the recently vacated seats.
"Alright, what was that?" asked Louie, breaking the awkward
silence.
Clark merely shrugged. "I don't ask questions," he said, taking
his seat at the control panel. "I just work here."
Neither of them noticed the various paper thrown on the floor.
