<b>Watchtower</b><br/><br/><i>Conference Room</i><br/><br/>Lady Shazam<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Again. From the top."</span>The goddess of wisdom was very unhappy with one of the heroes to which she had blessed. The old wizard, Shazam, patted her shoulder.<br/><br/>Mary Batson, currently stripped of her powers stood trembling in front of the angry goddess.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:crimson">"As I stated before, ma'am... No one could understand each other because they couldn't hear each other.  I thought if they read what the other actually said..."</span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"You THOUGHT?!!"</span>The goddess slammed both fists on the table making everyone in attendance except Batman and Martian Manhunter jump.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"ALL that wisdom bestowed upon you, in the middle of a medical crisis... And you THOUGHT NOTES would help?! No WONDER the doctor put you on report!!"</span><br/><br/>"If I may interject something here," Captain Comet stated. "We rely on our hearing and communication so much, that when it's not available, we do not know what to do with ourselves."<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Then you humans need to stop taking it for granted so much! That still doesn't excuse a grown woman passing notes out like a grade schooler!"</span>The goddess, Athena, snapped angrily.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Especially in the middle of a medical emergency!"</span><br/><br/>Mary Batson hung her head.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:crimson">"I still don't know what I could have done differently."</span><br/><br/>Athena and Shazam both glowered. Shazam put a hand on Athena's arm. "I've got this, milady." He looked solemnly at Mary. "You could have healed their ears, young lady."<br/><br/>"That would have been my choice," Mister Terrific admitted.<br/><br/>"With my shrinking abilities, I could have actually touched the eardrums to stop the vibrations." Atom stated.<br/><br/>Athena glowered at him.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Shrinking that small is not an ability of Captain Marvel."</span>She said.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Mary would have had to cup their ears."</span><br/><br/>Mary looked up.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:crimson">"I didn't know I had healing powers, too."</span><br/><br/>"A lesser used power, but there." The wizard explained.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:turquoise">"She was meant, from the beginning, to be Young Justice's detective. We were in agreement on that."</span>Batman growled.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Bruce. I'm ashamed of you."</span>Athena sighed, sounding motherly.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Yes, I agreed to growing her intellect in that manner, but not at the cost of her other abilities. You of all people should have realized that."</span><br/><br/>Harley Quinn<br/><br/>Harley flew in.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:magenta">"Uhh! We got like serious situations out west, like seriously serious situations!"</span>Realizing what she said, she quipped,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:magenta">"Try saying that three times fast!"</span><br/><br/>Manhunter rolled his eyes. "I'd rather not."<br/><br/>Athena sighed.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Dismissed. Walk of shame for 24 hours. Get someone who can help you grow your healing powers when you can once again become Lady Shazam."</span><br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:crimson">"But ma'am.."</span>Mary pleaded in tears.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"Walk. Of. Shame."</span>Athena growled.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"For the next 24 hours, you're a normal teenage girl. Dismissed."</span><br/><br/>"Athena. That's a bit extreme." Atom gasped.<br/><br/>All Batman had to say was,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:turquoise">"Don't forget to wear your sunglasses. Rules still apply."</span><br/><br/>Athena gave Batman another cold stare as the door opened and everyone left.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:greenyellow">"That rule is antiquated. Get rid of it. I won't ASK again."</span><br/><br/>Harley then explained about the sudden cold snap in Central City and the weird severe storms, including a glowing tornado in Star City.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:magenta">"A meteor fell during the severe storm in National City."</span>Harley added.<br/><br/>"I'll alert PowerGirl." Atom said, "She said she wanted to go to the Medbay."<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:turquoise">"Good idea. PowerGirl is pissed off at me right now. I'll talk to Flash."</span>Batman went another direction.<br/><br/>"I've got Arrow." Manhunter stated going a third.<br/><br/>Athena went directly to see how another of her 'children' was doing. The Amazon princess herself. Besides, after scolding Lady Shazam... She needed a more intellectual conversation.<br/><br/><i>Medbay</i><br/><br/>Amethyst<br/><br/>Amethyst blinked several times having heard Nightstar, but not knowing she was referring to the healer Blue Lantern.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorchid">"I'm sorry, what? I thought I was already on the team. What did I do so heroic? Block the escape route through the portal?"</span>She was understandably confused.<br/><br/>Artemis<br/><br/>Artemis nodded enthusiastically.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkturquoise">"Oh absolutely, ab so LUTE Iee!"</span>She frowned at Amethyst.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkturquoise">"Yes. You're already a member. Don't worry about it."</span><br/><br/>Ember<br/><br/>Ember listened to Atalanta before shaking her head.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orangered">"Hey. Enough of that nonsense, now. That wasn't your fault. I doubt it was anyone's except Loki's. She's the one that decided she was going to steal. She decided to deceive us all with magic and trickery. We need to be better prepared is all. Which reminds me. Something I need to say to Nightstar."</span><br/><br/>She walked over,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:orangered">"You know that one video game I play that has heroes of different elements? What if we used the same kind of element against element scenerio to fight Loki and Frost? Hear me out on this. Light and dark cancel each other out in my game, and we both know that Loki is using a kind of dark magic. So.... All our light bearers fight her. That's you, Cera and Amethyst once she's better, and any lantern we get. I couldn't have done anything against Freya, because she's ice. Water puts out fire, I'm weakest again it. Minimal damage, y'know? We need to combat with nature. Who do we have there? Easy. Artemis, most of her arrows are natural element based. Also the speedsters, because lightning is natural I'm fire so I'm best going up against green, or nature. Freya being ice is strongest against fire. The next time we go up against Loki... Let's hit her hard with our light element heroes first and last. Sandwiched between would be the attacks from the others, coordinated by you, of course. Well, you and Artemis."</span><br/><br/>PowerGirl (part 1)<br/><br/>After checking over the injured parties, talking to those who could (which was only Zatara) and hearing his point of view, she went over to Atalanta.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lightsteelblue">"So, like Ember said... It was out of your hands from the start. No amount of kicking yourself now, will restore them completely to before. All you can do is learn from it, and move on."</span><br/><br/>She then was alerted to the trouble in National City, Star City and Central City. Frowning, she said,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lightsteelblue">"Beam me down into the Hall of Justice. I need to talk to Guardian."</span><br/><br/>She quickly sent a text to Oracle.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lightsteelblue">Babs. Tell Helena Karen says boo. Once you've apprehended that faux Batgirl, that is.</span><br/><br/>Velocity<br/><br/>Windy came around and the first thing she wanted to do was get up and fix Young Justice's dinner as that's what was on the schedule. She stumbled a bit and fell backwards onto the bed. Not to be deterred she was determined to get back up. Someone would probably have to end up sitting on her!<br/><br/><b>Gotham</b><br/><br/>Hornette<br/><br/>Without flinching and a simple sidestep, Hornette watched the bolt hit the wall, kicking up plaster. With a grimace and grunt she yanks it out and looks at it.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"Reusable. Still sharp."</span>She mused offhanded. She made her way to Huntress.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"That's not my MO, dear Huntress."</span>She handed her the bolt.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"Nothing wrong with it except dusty. You killed a bit of plaster over there though."</span><br/><br/>Ivy<br/><br/>Did nothing more than salute, and using some vines like grappling hooks took off for another section of the city.<br/><br/>Oracle<br/><br/>As she studied the Gotham skyline, she noticed one thing.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"That suit should be easily located by the tracer.... Where is it?"</span><br/><br/>Alfred sighed. "Miss Gordon. It's a museum piece locked up in the batcave. Where do you surmise it is?"<br/><br/>Oracle growled in disgust, just as she received Speedy's message.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Acknowledged, Speedy. Going to have a disappointed insect who wants to team up, although I'm sure, if you have read her undercover story as I requested, you'd want to kick her ass for being in street gangs and intimidating, first. You take care of yourself and your city."</span><br/><br/>Oracle then radioed the Birds.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"I'm flying blind here. The tracers are no longer there according to Alfred, because, batcave museum."</span>She took a breath as she heard Hornette yell freeze and heard the sting fire. Obviously over a culprit's head.<br/><br/>Hornette came on frantic for the first time ever.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"This crazy perp really thinks she's Batgirl, hone in on me, girls... I'm going to need all the help I can get. Going over rooftops. Two blocks west of the police station!"</span>Another gun firing.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:forestgreen">"Tracer on Oracle! Was aiming for her lower cape though, not where I got her. Sorry."</span><br/><br/>Oracle was happy to see the tracer blip on.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Alright! Everyone has the tracer signal now? Hornette, don't you DARE lose sight of her! Birds, swoop in and surround her!"</span>She needed to get mobile quick.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:darkorange">"Alfred!"</span><br/><br/>"Already on it," The bat-butler said.<br/><br/><br/><b>Metropolis</b><br/><br/>Perry White (NPC)<br/><br/>"Lane, get your protegé and your ass in here pronto!" The editor of the Daily Planet barked in the intercom.<br/><br/>Lois Lane (part 1)<br/><br/>Shortly Lois was in.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:burlywood">"What's up, Chief?"</span><br/><br/>Perry quickly filled her in, and then concluded, "Star City flights are understandably cancelled. It was a flaming tornado! National City has minimal damage because it was a meteor. I want pictures of the space rock and eyewitness accounts of the thing falling!" He sighed. "As for Kara. Strap her to your hood like a hunted deer if you have to... Just get her there. I want both of you on this!"<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:burlywood">"Right away."</span>Lois nodded.<br/><br/>Kara Kent (part 1)<br/><br/>Kara just stepped out of the bathroom as Lois got out of the office. With a yelp, she suddenly found herself dragged out the door, down the elevator and out the lobby to Lois's car.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lemonchiffon">"What? No 'lets go Smallville!' this time?"</span><br/><br/>Lois shook her head, unlocking the door.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:burlywood">"No time. Get in. We're flying to National City! Meteor fell in the middle of a raging storm."</span>And off they went... One block and into a traffic jam.<br/><br/>PowerGirl (part 2)<br/><br/>PowerGirl made a stop at the Hall of Justice and right into the quandary that was the girl wanting to apply.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lightsteelblue">"I'll sponsor her. Think I saw her doing small time heroing. Take her to the back, Tornado and start the paperwork. Guardian. I need anything you can dig up on Jack Frost. The winter elemental one. You know. Winter Maiden's dad. And I mean everything. Send them to the batcave, Birds of Prey HQ and the Watchtower. The sooner the better. Oh. And Guardian? Thanks."</span><br/><br/>No sooner she reached outside, she heard Lois complaining about missing her flight to National City.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lightsteelblue">"Non stop flight from Metropolis to National City now leaving."</span>She said as she picked up Lois's car and flew off with it and it's two occupants.<br/><br/><b>Star City</b><br/><br/>Erin "Sherlock" Holmes<br/><script class="js-extraPhrases" type="application/json">

</a><br/>Erin Holmes, nicknamed "Sherlock" by Scotland Yard because every case she ever helped on was a sure lock to be wrapped up quickly, sighed, putting aside her paper as she puffed on her pipe looking out at the storm.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:blanchedalmond">"Intriguing weather phenomenon today."</span>She mused.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:blanchedalmond">"Hullo? What's this?"</span>She peered squint eyed at the developing light tornado that seemed to appear out of the skies, and then dissipate just as quickly.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:blanchedalmond">"Hrmm. Roughly five and a half miles to the south west of my current position, as the crow flies. I best check the area, as this mystery is most intriguing."</span>She grabbed her deerstalker cap and cloak and headed out of her hotel and in the direction of the phenomenon she witnessed with a hearty,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:blanchedalmond">"At last, excitement on this dull vacation, the game is afoot!"</span><br/><br/><b>National City</b><br/><br/>Kara Kent (part 2)<br/><br/>Upon arriving in National City, Kara asked,<span class="fixed-color" style="color:lemonchiffon">"So now witnesses, right?"</span><br/><br/>Lois Lane (part 2)<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:burlywood">"Wrong, Smallville. First we scope out the area where the meteor was seen to have fallen. It should be around here and roped off according to the directions we were given in Metropolis."</span>Lois said calmly.<br/><br/>PowerGirl (part 3)<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:lightsteelblue">"Interesting. There appears to be a sledgehammer in this crater. Maybe our meteor is under it."</span>A crowd started to gather, some having already been there. Once actual eyewitnesses to the meteor falling were singled out, Lois and Kara began interviewing them, as yet an unbelievable spectacle played out in front of them. Try as she might, PowerGirl who was definitely stronger than Superman, couldn't pick up the seemingly light hammer! Her grunts and groans, as well as her strained facial and arm muscles spoke volumes.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:lemonchiffon">"If PowerGirl can't lift that hammer.... Who on Earth can?!"</span>Kara gasped, asking the question on everyone's mind.<br/><br/><b>Central City</b><br/><br/>Jack Frost (NPC villain and majorly pissed off winter elemental)<br/><br/>In Central City, the day had dawned at a balmy for September temperature of 72 degrees. Clouds appeared out of nowhere right above it and the surrounding area. Wally West, who lost use of his legs thanks to Slade, rolled over to his apartment window as the news reports stated the unnatural drop in temperatures. Fifty degrees in mere minutes. Just as the blizzard began to rage, he could hear, high above, what sounded like maniacal laughter. "Humans! Hear me! I am Jack Frost! You stole my eldest daughter from me, so now you shall be snowbombed back to the ice age!" More maniacal laughter. Wally called Artemis first and then dialed up his other best girlfriend. "Speedy! Dammit I really needed you to answer! You know Queen Elsa? Winter Maiden's mom? Well... Her Dad is here turning Central City into Antarctica! The Antarctica of Pluto! Alert the Titans and..." The power failed, so the message was cut off there.<br/><br/>In another part of the city, Captain Cold, looked around at the blizzard. His last word until the thaw would come was, "Chilling."<br/><br/>Frost laughed at his handiwork. His next stop, right across the frozen river to Midland City, then to points East. All the heroes he was blaming would find their cities frozen wastelands if he had anything to do and say about it.
