Doesn't Lady Flux's question kinda answer that first one? Her future self is a serious threat, and it took us together to drive her off, possibly when she was trying to mentally influence a gold or silver age hero into doing something terrible in front of some cameras ... which would also lead into Melissa's.<br/>And we were all there because either coincidence or hearing about this famous hero having some sort of announcement or at least appearance. We didn't trust each other because, well, look at us, and the whole thing started with Flux running in telling the first person who'd listen that we needed to stop this respected hero<em>right now</em>and ... something something, I don't know?
