				<em>RING! RING!</em><br>“Master Bruce it is Master Richard again on the phone for you, he sounds deeply concerned”<br>“. . .”<br>“Master Bruce if I may, He is deeply concerned for you, we all are, but ever since the death of Master Jason… Its been two months sir. This is not something you can simply brood away as usual. You need friends, companions to confide in. If not Master Richard or myself, why not Superman?”<br>“. . .”<br>“Suit yourself. But some food for thought, it is not necessarily weakness if you have a shoulder to lean on.”<br><br>There in the dark of his cave, Bruce Wayne sits, accompanied by the glow of the one large screen, and many other smaller screens of the Bat-computer. Each screen monitoring something else. While the screens were lively and animated, the man in the seat in front of them and the gigantic keyboard, better labeled a control panel, was silent. His mind though, was constantly working. There was a reason the likes of Ra’s al Ghul and Commissioner Gordon regarded him as the worlds greatest detective. Even now, his mind raced with a million thoughts.<br><br><em>”My Soldier.. Jason. Can I afford anyone close again? The one person that trusted me most, I let him down. Some how, that stings far more harsh than even the thought of failing the City. That Laugh, it wont stop. I know hes there in Arkham, endlessly laughing. He knows he got me, giving me a fate worse than death.”<br><br>“Alfred has said from the get go since it happened, I should reach out to people, not blame myself..but how can I? My greatest failure, my partner, my soldier..my fault. All this on what seems to be a new age dawning. I thought Superman would be the end all be all, but over time his existence seems to have given way to the rise of super humans, and not all of them good.”<br><br>“Over the years, we suddenly come to know we are not alone in the universe, with the emergence of Superman. Everyone loves him. Somehow, Many still see my acts as criminal, but him? He’s as good as a God in the eyes of the people of metropolis and the world alike. Not long after we saw the emergence of what is another would-be hero, though not much is known about him, outside the fact that he seems to use green light energy of some kind, and he can go into space. Only occasional sightings of him. Then we learn that the Atlantis of myth is very much real, then fast forward to just over a month ago, we learn that amazons do infact exist. Are my allies really among these people?”<br><br>“The Amazonian ambassador is set to speak with several key leaders in Central City, which itself seems to have buzzing rumors of a scarlet speedster. Some kind of blur. If anyone sees it, its gone in a flash. Is this yet another alien? A metahuman? More importantly, whose side is it on? A more pressing matter though is at hand. Intelligence I’ve gathered indicates there will be an attempt on Princess Diana’s life . While the Amazonians seem very ready for combat, she may not see an assassination coming. The League of Assassins seems to have no hand in this, but I have been tipped off that there was once Assassin that I am all too familiar with that recently somehow escaped Blackgate. I wont let a life fall out of my hands again. I will stop this, at all cost. An old friend of mine is also going to be doing a show at the time in Central City. Zatanna Zatara. She has some renown for her own heroics with her magic, but I’d rather just let the show go on, than ask her for help and risk her getting hurt. Deathstroke is an old adversary, and one of the deadliest assassins on this planet. I must stop him, because if he succeeds, who knows what the consequences will be?" </em>

				It began with a slip of a moment of frustration. The realization that the world is in danger. An invasion of a sort. <br><br>Persistent rumors of a costumed vigilante in Gotham City. The emergence of the ‘Superman’. The revelation of an undiscovered island filled with Amazon warriors. A being able to move so fast he is seen as only a red blur. The lost city of Atlantis.. found again. A man using green light to accomplish his goals. <br><br>The rise of the ‘metahuman’. A threat to the balance of the world. A threat that must be stopped before it has a chance to start. But to catch a thief, you must often employ a thief. That is the conclusion this man has come to. <br><br>In his windowed office he sits, a master of industry and finance who over the years has accumulated a fortune. And perhaps for just this perhaps.. to stop this plague of metahumans that will no doubt be intruding upon his plans. And that simply cannot be. The computer screen in front of him shows various reports involving metahumans in recent weeks. Stopping a bank robbery here, smashing a giant rampaging robot there, leaving criminals tied up in front of the police station. Thus far these vigilantes have been keeping to themselves, not forming any sort of union. Something that could be used to his advantage.<br><br><em>“There are metahumans, however, that have no interest in ‘the greater good’. Yes, they will make excellent agents. They fight for money, for power. Not something as droll and outdated as truth, justice and peace for all mankind. They will be my soldiers.. “</em><br>Not so long later…<br><br>The Lexcorp private jet arrives, and he climbs aboard, ordering the pilot to take him to Lexcorp headquarters. The flight to Metropolis doesn’t take long at all. Meetings were held with some… free agents… we’ll call them. Promises were made, money exchanged.. and then things went into motion. <br><br>The word went out. It wasn’t just a call out to the less reputable metahumans out there. This was something to get them at least a little organized. Make them see that they could do a lot more when working together. If only to take down those that were stopping them, stopping them from making more money or getting whatever else it was they wanted. Groups focusing on what seems to be the 2 epicenters of metahuman activity… Central City and Metropolis. <br>

Hal Jordan walked along the fairway, hands stuffed in the pockets of his leather bomber jacket. He wore sunglasses and a watch cap, but they weren't a disguise, particularly. His face wasn't particularly famous, and the ring he wore made sure that any electronic media that observed or recorded him saw a different face than the one he'd been born with.<br><br>He spent all too much time in places far away, and while that was just part of the job, it was nice to come home, or as close to home as he was going to find here in Metropolis. Still, it beat sitting around an empty apartment in Coast City, and it was nice to see people with the same number of arms and legs and heads that he'd been born with out enjoying themselves. Not a tentacle in sight. At least not on a person. <br><br>Besides, it would be interesting to see what all the hype was about. LexCorp, for all the rumors and stories, rarely disappointed when it came to technology. And they definitely knew how to put on a fair. He grinned, side stepping a group of teens as they sauntered past, doing their best to look cool and detached. Then he made his way unhurriedly along the docks, just soaking in the air, and enjoying the crowded fair.

All that was left to do was locate a freighter called the Red Star, a name that Koriand'r had obtained from a helpful Moroccan ex-slaver; helpful because Koriand'r had found that hanging people upside down by their feet while she hovered several hundred feet made everyone helpful, and an ex-slaver as so few of the helpful people were capable of flying unaided.<br><br>The trip to Metropolis was a new departure for Koriand'r, normally her incursions into the wider world were only to deal with the people who were directly involved with human trafficking, but a name kept reoccurring 'Intergang'. From what Koriand'r had discovered this Intergang was involved in a wide range of criminal activities, so if she could stop this Intergang's other activities it would shut the human trafficking down as well. Which is where the Moroccan came in, he hadn't been sure what was being carried on the Red Star but it was important to Intergang, which made it important to Koriand'r.<br><br>From the vantage point in the shuttle Koriand'r could see there was a lot of activity in the docks and in the harbour. After spending two years keeping a low profile there were suddenly lots of potential witnesses to her being on this planet, but Koriand'r couldn't wait until the docks were quiet, what if Intergang's precious cargo was unloaded? what if the Red Star sailed before she could get on board? Koriand'r set up security protocols for the shuttle, it would wait out of sight until she summoned it or if anyone got too close it would return to Fatu Hiva and leave Koriand'r a long flight home under her own power. Koriand'r entered one last command into the shuttle and first there was a small hiss and the a loud rush as the shuttle depressurized and a hatch opened, Koriand'r took stepped out into nothingness and swooped down towards the docks, the bright orange trail blazing behind her wasn't exactly discrete and someone was bound to notice it. The shuttle equipment had narrowed the search down to one of six freighters all Koriand'r could do now was hope to X'Hal that she could find the Red Star before things got out of hand.

As much as he despised Luthor, the man made for good news, and as such paid Clark's bills. He heard Lois sigh even with all the noise from the crowd and he looked over at his partner and asked "What's wrong Lois?" She rubbed her temple and sighed "I don't know, this just seems too... innocent to be something Luthor would profit in, that's all" Clark nodded "Indeed, I've been wondering what his angle on this thing is..." Clark looked over at Luthor, the conversation was relatively innocent, so Clark didn't keep his attention focussed on the two for long. Clark instead focussed on the roaring sound of a wave crashing against the harbour. Clark nudged Lois and said "Excuse me for a moment" He moved away from the crowd and into an alley, pulling out a small Kryptonian nano storage machine. He pulled his shirt off, all this happened at blinding speed and before anyone knows it, Clark had changed into the outfit of his alter ego, the Kryptonian Kal-El, commonly known as Superman. <br><br>Kal-El took off and flew towards the direction of the wave, using his telescopic vision to see the young Atlantean as she arrived at the harbour. He flew over to her and landed in front of her "What is your business here Atlantean? I will not have you disturb this gathering, there are too many innocents around" He said with a calm, stoic voice "I am Kal-El and this city is under my protection, that includes all the property here... I know your reputation and I will not have you conduct your activities within my city

Or that's what his first impression was, as he turned to look at it. His eyebrow went up slightly, as his ring gave him a quick analysis. A Tamaran female with unusually high energy readings. And a long way from home. He hadn't personally encountered a Tamaran before, but the ring gave him a quick rundown.<br><br>While that was happening, he was moving between one of the fair pavilions and a fence, as the green light from his ring surrounded him, and by the time he took his third step he was in the air, his clothes replaced by the uniform of a green lantern, looking like a blur of green light, just short of supersonic once he'd gotten high enough to fly clean. <br><br>He headed right for the flying woman, there was no reason to hide his approach, so he didn't try. She hadn't done anything wrong, after all, but given the crowded fair, and the nature of the day's event, he had to find out what was going on.<br><br>He also wasn't interested in finding out what "unusually high energy readings" meant the hard way, so he was surrounded by a shimmering green force field as he approached her, close enough to be heard, and said, "Hello. I'm the Green Lantern for this sector. What are your intentions here today?"<br><br>

No, rather than trolling the grounds looking for something amiss, the international supermodel was doing a lot of smiling and waving at those who might have recognized her public persona and simply feigning interest at the words out of her short and smarmy agent's mouth. <br><br>The truth was, she didn't really need an agent to handle her bookings or business but everyone tended to feel more comfortable when the girls they hired to stand here, look just so, and sell a product didn't come off as <em>too</em> smart. Her agent was good at what he did, that much as true, but trusting him blindly wasn't in anybodies best interest let alone hers. Still, the greedy male had suggested they make a showing at the fair that was sure to attract the attention of the city's heavy hitters and she'd gone along with it, though she had subsequently vetoed the idea of pimping herself out to one of said heavy hitters as an 'escort'. She wasn't that desperate. Not for anything.<br><br>Instead, Mari was focused on making the most out of this public appearance. However, that didn't mean she wasn't aware that there was likely more going on around the fair than met the eye. She was sure that she'd stumble across something out of place without purposely going looking for it--this was Metropolis after all and Lexcorp to boot--so for now Vixen remained hidden, her tie to the Red laying dormant while Mari got a good look at the new toys being developed by billionaires with way too much free time on their hands. Of course, already she was hearing murmurs of Superman having appeared somewhere. No way to know just yet it if were true without using her abilities but it wasn't too hard to imagine it might be.

They were disguised to look as common tourists, well he was at least. She was there to have fun. Carter Hall smiled and laughed as she dragged him to each attraction and game that was set up at the fair. He couldn't help but be happy as he watched her play each game, even though he was here on business. He had word from some very reputable sources that an old foe of his had some of his own inventions in the fair. But something didn't seem right. Superman for some reason has already made his appearance and they had already run into Lois Lane the wonderful reporter. He also heard small whispers, of a flash of fire by the docks, and a streak of green as well. He had heard of each of these people and was wondering if they were all here for the same thing. Superman was possibly checking out the fire and streak of green. This was supposedly his jurisdiction, but why were the others here. Shiera was eyeing an Amazonian model with envy as most girls were at the fair. "Shiera, are you alright?" Carter asked her. She sighed and smiled to him. "Just wish I was as pretty as her." He chuckled and shook his head. "But you are Shiera." <br><br>She looked to him. "Your mind is wandering again isn't it? Is something wrong?" She asked him. "I honestly don't know yet." he answered him. "I don't know."

Of course she had heard of the Green Lantern Corps, their exploits were known across the civilized universe but seeing one of them on Earth was unexpected to say the least. What was even more unexpected was that this Green Lantern appeared to be human, a world not capable of interstellar travel had someone qualified to be a Green Lantern, most unusual. But the one thing that truly astounded Koriand'r was that this human was speaking in her native Tamaran, while it had been many years since she had spoken her own language so she was a little out of practice but this human had mastered her own dialect perfectly, obviously the Green Lantern Corps linguistic training was better than she believed possible, particularly as most humans she had met were incapable of speaking more than one language.<br><br>Koriand'r paused and thought about how to respond; the Green Lantern Corps were peace keepers and intergalactic police, not that they were there when she needed them, but as she was about to do something that while morally right wasn't legal under most Earth customs. Would this human try and stop her or would he see the greater injustice? Koriand'r tensed up, ready to act decisively if this human didn't see the greater good, her voice was calm but full of the authority of a Tamaran Princess "One of those ships has a cargo that a group of human criminals value greatly. I <em>intend</em> to destroy what they value." Koriand'r stared intently at the Green Lantern ready for whatever happened next.

Not that Hal had been expecting something like that, but perhaps hope springs eternal. And this regal sounding Tamaran&nbsp; looked ready to go through him to get to these criminals she was after.<br><br>Still, there was no reason to dismiss what she said out of hand. Maybe if he could find more about the situation, he could make a better decision on what to do. Just stepping aside and letting things happen, though, wasn't an option. Too many innocent people too close, just for starters. Some of this thought process fed the slight frown that crossed his own face, then he said, "I'm all for making criminals unhappy, but can you tell me more about what is going on? Who are the criminals, what ship, and what is the cargo would all help."<br><br>He was tempted to put a force bubble around her, but she still hadn't done anything wrong, and he wasn't in the business of starting fights without good reason. His own defensive shield stayed firmly in place though.<br>

The head of the beam expands, it intending the same thing meant for Green Lantern. To take her down with one powerful hit, while Star Sapphire has the element of surprise! <br><br><hr><div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/d/d1/3279093-9797655896-black.jpg) </div><div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/fc/Sinestro.jpg) </div><hr> <span style="font-family: arial;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong> Name: </strong>Black Manta, Sinestro<br>&nbsp; <strong>Location: </strong> Metropolis <br>&nbsp; <strong>Tagging: </strong> Aquagirl, Superman, open!<br></span></span><hr>It seems Metropolis is attracting all sorts of bad these days. Both in the skies and on land.. and also beneath the waves. The notion that the United States Navy is unveiling some kind of new form of weapon is.. unnerving to some. Enough that it would get the attention of those that you usually don’t want to get the attention of. Like one Black Manta. While Aquagirl nobly fights for the rights of those within the sea, and does so with minimal harm to the surface dwellers… well Black Manta has a different view of how things should go. <br>He deserves power, and anyone in his way gets crushed under his boot. <br>As Superman confronts Aquagirl, out in the harbor new activity begins. Some of the Coast Guard patrolling the harbor sees lights in the water, and many of them are diverted to investigate. This is a big event, after all. In the short distance a black colored sub surfaces, it’s surface as black as night. Small glowing lines along it’s front are the only indications that it is real and not some shadow. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Manta Sub</div><div class="spoiler_body"> http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/9/9d/Mantasub.jpg </div></div>A hatch opens on top of the slick sub, and from it an armored man emerges. The eyes at the front of his helmet glow a devilish red, and he holds an elongated blade at his side. He stares out at the Naval vessel on display in the harbor, and he waits for the signal. <br>And the ‘signal’ happens at about this exact moment. <br>From under the Navy ship thick mechanical tentacles begin to slither up the sides of the ship. Each tentacle about 4 feet wide. If one were to count, there would be about 10 of them slithering up the side of the vessel, slowly tearing into it’s hull from below. Black Manta sees this happening, and he raises his blade, pointing it towards the harbor. Panels open along the top of the sub, and a missile launches from each of those ports, heading right towards the Navy ship. The Coast Guard are already in motion to intercept the armored man and his vessel, but each Coast Guard ship is suddenly under attack. The same sort of mechanical tentacles that had found their way onto the large Navy ship now assault the smaller Coast Guard boats, destroying each of them.&nbsp; <br><br>It’s about that time that a new threat makes itself known, right near Superman and Aquagirl. Yellow light flashes from somewhere below Superman, almost directly in Aquagirl’s line of sight. And an instant later, what looks like a gigantic yellow glowing dragon rises up and attempts to bite down on Superman.&nbsp; The monster seems to have literally come out of nowhere. But it’s source is fairly evident.. a purple skinned man with a deep scowl on his face, with long pointed ears. He hovers just a few feet off the ground, one of his fisted hands held upwards towards Superman. He glows a brilliant yellow color, that glow seeming brightest around his fist. Wisps of yellow energy dance around him, the light seeming almost solid. His voice comes forth in a smooth, calm and confident tone. <br>“Superman, isn’t it? I am Sinestro. I’m here to end you.”<br><br><hr> <div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/9/94/1399523-pan03toyman.jpg) </div><hr> <span style="font-family: arial;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong> Name: </strong>Toyman and his Army<br>&nbsp; <strong>Location: </strong> Metropolis <br>&nbsp; <strong>Tagging: </strong> Everyone<br></span></span><hr>A bit away from the harbor, something else strange is starting to happen. What looks like a little boy skips down the busy street, his appearance eliciting all sorts of looks. Some are curious.. some are a little horrified. He looks like a boy.. but there is something very off. His face doesn’t change, his whole face seems to be just painted on. He speaks in a singsong voice. <br>“Have some fun, that’s what they said! Take this money and make your toys!”&nbsp; He giggles as he spins around, and he pulls off his back what looks like a large water gun.&nbsp; &nbsp;“Share your toys with all the good girls and boys!”&nbsp; A loud crash is heard somewhere down the street.. and then horrified screams. Around the corner suddenly emerges a giant… toy soldier. That’s the best way to describe it. It stands almost 20 feet tall, and smashes whatever is in it’s path. Another toy solider follows, and then another. Cannons on their shoulders start to rain bullets down all around them, aiming for nothing in particular. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Big Boy Toy Soldiers</div><div class="spoiler_body"> (http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/0/09/JLTS.png) </div></div>More mechanical beings suddenly appear, marching down the street. Each of them about 6 feet tall. They each carry a large rifle, the sides of the rifles glowing a soft yellow color. They… look like giant Lego men. As they march, they raise their cannons and start to fire, killing as many as they can. They number easily around 40 or so. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Toy Soliders</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/0/09/Character3.jpg) </div></div>Near the fair, seemingly out of nowhere, giant… teddy bears.. begin to march along the side walks. They waddle as they walk slowly, their massive bodies swaying gently side to side. They each stand about 10 feet tall, and there are around 15 of them. The moment something is within their reach, they proceed to tear whatever it is to shreads with the ferocity of a real bear. It doesn’t seem to matter if the object they are attacking is a street sign or a person. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Cuddly Teddy</div><div class="spoiler_body"> (http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/6/60/Beargguy.jpg) </div></div>Along the coast and in the harbor, more mechanical tentacles emerge from the water. Any ship or boat docked in the harbor suddenly finds itself under attack by these mechanical beasts. Their long arms rend the ships they come into contact with, sinking as many as they can and doing as much damage as they can to anything within their reach. They number around 20. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Squiddly Diddly</div><div class="spoiler_body"> (http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/5/51/OctopusWithLED1.jpg) </div></div>Hovering high above the streets of Metropolis, strange looking white crafts. They.. almost look like giant kitties. There are about 30 of them all together, and they sweep through the city street by street, dropping explosives from their bellies as they go. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Bad Kitty</div><div class="spoiler_body"> (http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/6/61/JLkitty.png) </div></div><br>As all of this is happening, the fake boy just skips merrily along, humming gleefully to himself.&nbsp; “Have your fun, I was told! Kill the ones who ruin your world!”&nbsp; He says with a loud giggle.<br>

Trouble had a way of making itself known without one actually looking for it. It had always been her experience. As attacks broke out--not one but two--chaos erupted as people scrambled to get away from the danger.&nbsp; With her human eyesight it wasn't difficult to spot the two beacons of trouble however, knowing which way to go was impossible right off. <br><br><em>"Oh geez..."</em> Her agent exclaimed, looking for somewhere to take cover. <br><br>He didn't even notice the way Mari simply went still, her face a mask of intense concentration as she whispered, <strong>"Sight of an Eagle."</strong> Instantly her vision sharpens and the world explodes with a clarity that is simply foreign to most humans. With ease she can make out the tentacles surfacing in the harbor, even through the pandemonium of the panicking crowd around her. She also spots Superman before turning to look toward where she'd seen the arc of violet light in time to see a giant green fist appear. <br><br>It is more curiosity than anything that decides for her. Her agent scrambles off, not even looking at her. With disgust, Mari uses the confusion to slip away to some place where she can shed the outer layer of her clothing. Reappearing she tugs on her connection to the red, calling on the speed of a cheetah before taking off toward the harbor and those tentacles. While Superman might be there, there also seemed to be another threat for him to deal with and there were a lot of Coast Guards that could use a little help.

Kal took off just as the source of this weird creature presented himself. Ot was a pink skinned alien with pointy ears, clad in a yellow outfit with an emblem on the chest that Kal had never see. Before Kal could say anythong, the alien presented himself as Sinestro and declared that he would be the end of the kryptonian. A small smile spread across Kal's lips as he saw the dragon come charging.

It couldn't be a coincidence that a super-powered human was here, and if the violet woman was an Intergang thug then she needed to be dealt with before Koriand'r could go after her true target. But the violet woman seemed more interested in the Green Lantern than protecting any of the cargo ships, Koriand'r knew everything wasn't as it appeared but deciphering what was amiss would have wait as she focused on the violet woman and unleashed her starbolts.

Her eyes widen as she angles herself more towards him.&nbsp; “I don’t have to?! And what choice have you left me?!”&nbsp; She screams angrily as her eyes glow a more brilliant shade of purple. The giant glowing green hand starts towards her, and as soon as it does she whips her own fist forwards towards him. A beam of purple energy explodes forth from her hand towards that hand. <br><br>The beam of light explodes against the glowing green hand and into 6 different beams as it pushes against that hand, shooting outwards. They raise up and then towards Green Lantern, the beams of light moving between the fingers of the hand. Each beam then diverts towards the glowing green warrior, intending to spear him with any of them. <br><br>Luckily she’s able to afford a little focus towards the oddly colored woman that she had struck earlier. Enough so that her attack towards Green Lantern wouldn’t be as powerful as it could be. She lets out a gasp as a starbolt flies right next to her, and she is suddenly in motion. She tries to keep her attack up on Green Lantern, but having to (barely) dodge the starbolts is going to get really old really quick.&nbsp; &nbsp; “Tell her to stop her attacks or I’ll kill you both!”&nbsp; She screams towards Lantern, thinking they are in cahoots of course. <br><br><hr><div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/d/d1/3279093-9797655896-black.jpg) </div><div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/fc/Sinestro.jpg) </div><hr> <span style="font-family: arial;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong> Name: </strong>Black Manta, Sinestro<br>&nbsp; <strong>Location: </strong> Metropolis <br>&nbsp; <strong>Tagging: </strong> Aquagirl, Superman, open!<br></span></span><hr>Standing atop his partially emerged mantasub, Black Manta watches as the attacks happen at the same time. Just as it had been laid out months before. He watches as the aliens battle one another in the sky.. that doesn’t interest him so much. The Coast Guard looks like it’s trying to mount another defensive measure… well he can’t let that go. With two fingers he motions towards some of the naval vessels being deployed from the not so distant harbor. As he does, the sub opens with another salvo of missiles, launching from her stern. The missiles arch in the air, and destroy the ships before they have a chance to gain speed. He looks towards the yellow constructs Superman is facing.. and decides on his next target. <br><br>With a flash of yellow light Sinestro launches himself into the air towards Superman. The Kryptonian’s joined hands slams into the yellow dragon, causing the whole of it’s mass to tremble upon impact and then shatter. Sinestro shudders a moment as this happens, but he doesn’t let it slow him down. He’s faced stronger opponents than this. The dragon construct dissolves away as he draws his arm back, and then he thrusts his hand towards Superman once more. A dozen spiked beams of light shine forth from his ring, the beams arching outwards and then shooting towards Superman from all around him. The beams seem to sharpen as they approach him, as Sinestro intends to simply slice him to ribbons.&nbsp; “Fool.. you think your brute strength will be enough to overcome me?

His mace slams into one of the man sized ‘lego’ soldiers, and it shatters into a hundred mechanical pieces with a loud buzzing sound. The other soldiers as one turn towards Hawkman and raise their cannons, about 4 of them. Their emotionless faces seem to glare at the winged warrior as they fire, moving in a slow mechanical rhythm. 2 of the 10’ tall mechateddies start to waddle towards Hawkman, their cannon arms raising slowly as they do so. <br><br>As Vixen moves towards the harbor, a few of the toy soldiers fire in her direction. Not because they see her as a threat (yet), but because she’s just there. She’ll notice a number of innocent people have already fallen, some dead others just hurt. The mechanical beings make no discretion between warrior and innocent in this, they merely attack anyone they see. One of the 20 foot soldiers actually notices her and starts towards her. A missile launcher emerges from it’s shoulder, and it fires 3 mini missiles in her direction. It’s actually aiming for a woman near Vixen, but killing her will be just as good.&nbsp; <br>

Then something seemed to click in the barbarians mind. These weren't random. It was too perfect. This was planned, and that meant a force of villians was working together. The innocents and the navy yard, were all just a distraction. The plan was elimination of the heros. Hawkman roared in rage, as he takes another swing towards the oncoming soldiers and teddy's doing his best to dodge their attacks, and deliver death dealing blows.<br>

Her eyes narrow as she tries to spot her, ready to deliver what would be a killing blow. For all she knows. Her body lurches forward a little as she hangs there high in the air, oblivious to the other battles that were happening in her vicinity. Which wasn’t part of the plan.. she was a piece of the puzzle, but she has taken to her own goals. <br><br>The hairs on the back of her neck stand on end as she hangs there… something’s wrong.

But as she is hit with the pure force, she knows she’s no match for it. Her knees draw up as she cries out, her body slammed with the potent force. She is thrown back, the glow along her form flickering.. .and then fading. She hits the water with a loud splash, amongst the chaos already there at the docks. She is out cold, and her body begins to sink into the darkness. <br><br><hr><div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/d/d1/3279093-9797655896-black.jpg) </div><div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/fc/Sinestro.jpg) </div><hr> <span style="font-family: arial;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong> Name: </strong>Black Manta, Sinestro<br>&nbsp; <strong>Location: </strong> Metropolis <br>&nbsp; <strong>Tagging: </strong> Superman, open!<br></span></span><hr>The attacks from the Manta Sub continue as Black Manta stands atop it’s hull,&nbsp; coordinating the attack. He grins widely under his helmet, reveling in the chaos he has wrought upon this city. A sensor beeps inside of his helmet, and he looks over his shoulder. Ships are approaching from the open waters, large ships. As he makes that determination, his sub is under fire from a salvo originating from a cruiser that was approaching. Black Manta disappears into the hatch he stands in front of, and it closes and seals as his sub slowly submerges. He isn’t running.. he’s just moving to get a more tactical position. <br><br>The blades Sinestro had created didn’t do a lot of damage.. but he didn’t expect this to be easy. Already this ‘Superman’ has a reputation, one of unmatched invulnerability. The blades flicker from sight as Superman makes his declaration. Sinestro glances down as he listens, and then he looks back towards Superman as he thrusts his ring hand out in front of him. His yellow ring glows brightly, and as Superman rises into the air, his body is surrounded by a yellow globe. Kal unleashes his sonic attack, but Sinestro does not flinch, he doesn’t look away from Superman as he scowls. He speaks now, though no sound escapes from the bubble. Yeah he’s talking to himself.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>“Idiot. Announcing what you intend to do? You might be powerful.. but you aren’t experienced.” <br><br>He draws his ring hand back as Superman starts to slow (presumably) the clapping, and a beam of yellow energy shoots forward from the globe as he stands on air. It zooms towards Superman, intending to envelope and hold him.&nbsp; “Your body might be strong, but not stronger than my will, weakling!”&nbsp; He calls out, though Superman or anyone else still wouldn’t be able to hear him. Since his bubble is soundproof and all. <br><br><br><hr> <div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/9/94/1399523-pan03toyman.jpg) </div><hr> <span style="font-family: arial;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong> Name: </strong>Toyman and his Army<br>&nbsp; <strong>Location: </strong> Metropolis <br>&nbsp; <strong>Tagging: </strong> Hawkman <br></span></span><hr>Hawkman plows through the mechanical beings like a man possessed.

But they keep their lines of fire away from Hawkman, not wanting to hit him accidentally.

Entities, effigies, ideal conceptions given personality or purpose, as well as paranormal beings all comprise the list of these forces, but only scratch the surface. One of these forces was something that drove man - metahuman and mundane alike - to act on intangible contexts; a force we all call 'fear'. There are many subcategories of emotion that stem from this very basic, yet powerful, term. Doubt, anxiety, skepticism, and even courage are some of these emotions. The last one, courage, being the one placed in the light of idolization and a measurement of worth revered. This is what drove the man currently speeding past the reinforcing naval ships on approach to the Metropolis Harbor Fair. A trail of parallel streams of rising water were left in the figure's high velocity movements, giving only a distorted shadow with a humanoid figure. Who could this figure be?<br><br>Arthur Curry, half-human and half-Atlantean, was this figure. A man born in Amnesty Bay, Maine and heir to the Atlantean Throne. He had been a vigilant peacekeeper for the oceans for years. Years he had bled, cried, and sweat through heralding hardship and danger almost at a consistent rate. So consistent was this streak of struggle, many knew his name - knew his reputation. They called him the <strong>Aquaman</strong>, and right now a man who had become a thorn in his side through all these years was making (yet another) mess of things, weaving threads of chaos into the security and order the citizens much enjoyed. He would have none of it, and it was his responsibility to put a stop to it. He owed it not only to the waters Black Manta had plagued for years, but to the men and woman under attack that fought towards their mutually shared goal.<br><br>The water behind the human bullet moving faster than ship could every hope to accomplish began to rise, slowly forming a wave that peaked at twenty feet. A mere testament to the speed Arthur carried himself forward with furrowed blonde brows. Eventually, so too did Aquaman emerge from the current bee-lining to the submerging black vessel owned by one of his greatest foes. <strong>"Black Manta!"</strong> He shouted out as loud as his lungs would carry him, merely wanting the villain's attention and hoping to draw his fire away from the men and women in arms. <strong>"It's about time we end this game of cat and mouse!"</strong>

In the moment that she fell into the water, her safety was all Hal could think about. The logical part of his mind said that the stone she bore would keep her alive in the same way his ring would have done. That didn't stop him from diving after her, a beam of green force plunging into the waves, to surround Star Sapphire in an emerald field of energy, and lift her up out of the water.<br><br>"Dammit, why?" He knew why, and one of the great frustrations of his life was that he could do nothing about it. Nothing about them. Pulling Star Sapphire up into his arms, the brilliant green energy field around her now more a prison than anything else, he looked around, seeing the larger battles underway.<br><br>The bright yellow of Sinestro's power ring in action drew his eye, and he looked down at Carol's beautiful face, and then back at the scene of conflict, the sunk ships, sailors in the water. Shaking his head, he made a loop towards shore, and landed on a warehouse roof, laying Star down, and releasing the forcefield. He took a moment longer, to check her breathing, and to see if she had any serious hurts...then he used the ring to focus in on the battle between Superman and Sinestro, the toys rampaging in the streets, and the arrival of Aquaman on the scene to face off with Black Manta. A puzzled frown crossed his face. What the heck was going on?<br><br>

				((Sorry I don't have the tags I'm on my phone and its very hard to do at times.))<br><br>Hawkman did his best to avoid any oncoming attacks, but that wasn't always the case. He got hit with a few of the attacks made by some of his foes though he did what he could. He was very pleased with the easy destruction of many of his foes and any within earshot could hear it in his battle cry. Each swing of his mace led to a triumphant cry as pieces flew from such strange mechanisms.&nbsp; The sound of new orders drew his attention. The one that was apparently in charge of this toy like army had given his army a target. Now he could see the army turn to him as a whole. He let out another battle cry as he charged the he could hear bullets whiz past and connect with his foes. He was thankful almost for the help as he continued to swing.

He was now sure that this alien wasn't like anything he had thought before, well perhaps Metallo compared. He looked at him and groaned as he hovered higher up from the ground. What he was going to do, the city should be as far away as possible to protect it. He closed his eyes briefly and then dove deep into his own mind, there he removed several of the mental blocks he had put on his powers. Normally it wouldn't be hard to remove them, but when so many needed to be taken down, it was better to be on the safe side. Barely a fraction of a second had passed when the Kryptonian once again opened his eyes. Playtime was over and now this alien would learn just what happened to people who tried to invade his town, what happened to people who threatened his home. <br><br>He saw the stream of yellow energy follow him and he stopped in midair. He breathed in raised his hands and then drove them down towards the light. The power which he had exhibited before was not even a mentionable fraction of the power he put behind this smash. Had he been standing on the ground, the ground around him might have quaked and given way to the forces he had summoned to combat this mystical light "Thank fully, this doesn't seem much like magic" He thought to himself. He was done talking with his enemy. The Kal who would have given the Alien a chance to flee had disappeared and been replaced by the steel minded Kryptonian Soldier who would do whatever it takes to defend those he love

Even as she lays unconscious in the bubble she knows it. For a good minute or so she lays there unmoving save for the gentle rise and lowering of her chest as she breathes. But then her eyes slowly flutter open, and she gasps with the realization she’s been caught. No! No this wasn’t part of the plan! She starts to stir and a beam of energy shoots from her body to the prison around her.. but with little effect. She’s exhausted to much of her own energy at this point. She has conceded defeat in her own mind, and so she won’t win. Not ever. She kind of slumps down in the emerald prison she finds herself in, her face now resting on her palm. How could it have gone so wrong?

Now things get interesting! His sub descends into the water, and he turns to face his enemy, but all the while he is moving into the hatch upon his sub. He glances away from Aquaman.. and he speaks almost to himself.&nbsp; “No! There is still victory here, coward! I..”&nbsp; &nbsp;his voice trails off as he looks towards Green Lantern, and then the city.. and then the approaching reinforcements. He then speaks once more.&nbsp; &nbsp;“Acknowledged.”&nbsp; &nbsp; His glowing eyes move towards Aquaman as the hatch closes behind him&nbsp; &nbsp;“Pestilence contingency.”&nbsp; &nbsp;His command to the vessel is carried out almost immediately. Small portals along the sides and bottom of the sub slide open, about 10 in all. They fire torpedoes in all directions, none of them seeming to be aimed at anything. But once they are cleared of the sub, each of the torpedoes begin to blow out a dangerous toxin into the water. The fish the torpedoes breath in the dark purple colored mixture, and almost instantly they are killed. The sub begins to move away, Manta’s plan taking hold.. <br><br>Superman hones in on Sinestro, and really he isn’t surprised. He knows this type of warrior. Overpower the enemy… don’t hold back. Show the enemy your superior strength. His hands whip forward as Superman closes in on him, and a yellow shield like barrier forms in front of him. He growls loudly as that barrier is smashed to pieces almost as quickly as it is formed. His skilled eyes flicker away from Superman, seeing the demise of the female member of this attack. So it begins… he looks back towards Superman as he speaks, another barrier forming around his body, now sweat forming on his forehead.&nbsp; &nbsp; “Good, hero, good! And now it’s time for you to save the day, look down at the city, the mechasations attacking!”&nbsp; &nbsp;He motions towards the city below with his head, and he then whispers&nbsp; &nbsp; “Yellow group.. time to go. Yes, now! Star Sapphire has been eliminated.”&nbsp; &nbsp; He then starts to turn, and his body flashes yellow as he zooms into the sky, heading towards orbit… <br><hr> <div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/9/94/1399523-pan03toyman.jpg) </div><hr> <span style="font-family: arial;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong> Name: </strong>Toyman and his Army<br>&nbsp; <strong>Location: </strong> Metropolis <br>&nbsp; <strong>Tagging: </strong> Hawkman, everyone<br></span></span><hr>Hawkman and the National Guard do well against the machines.. and some of the troops have seen some kind purple of fluid oozing out of the downed machines. They assumed it was just.. oil or something. Sadly they’re wrong. Toyman glances up, and he starts to giggle as he speaks.&nbsp; &nbsp;“Acknowledged!”&nbsp; &nbsp;He then reaches to his belt and taps a small button. <br><br>When he does, every single one of his toys stops in mid motion. As one they all start to tremble, and then fall to pieces. And as they do, a purple gas&nbsp; is seen being sprayed from the chests of each machine, the ones on land, in the air and in the water. It’s a poison, the same kind of dangerous toxin that is now leaking into the waters from the torpedoes. Men around the ‘toys’ begin to cough.. and after about 10 seconds they fall into unconsciousness. Some will die in a matter of minutes with the continued exposure. Toyman moves away from his machines as he still giggles, and in a flash of energy he is gone, teleported away. <br>
