Crime Alley

The end of the road.

2009-12-08T20:33:00.000-08:00

Some time in the future.

Time has changed again, I feel it someone messed with reality, in the past, and it's affected changes in my present.I was attacking the last warlords of West City, robots, when Wolverine's clone sister daughter whatever X-23 aka my Uncle Thad's on again off again lover.

You see I beat up Wolverine's son for making comments about my mom,, and now she wants revenge. I was about to dispatch her when new memories started flooding my head.

Now Wolverine's son was with a different woman, but the same weird attitude, Mirai didn't have a son with... who was it again? Oddly now I remember rumors of him being my dad.

I admit we do look alike.

But that comes from him, and my dad having the same parents. I've checked my blood, I'm not Mirai's kid, Well that and my mom drunkenly announcing to everyone at Thanksgiving she's only been with one guy ... thanks for that mom something I did not want to know.

While a new lifetime of memories flooded my head, X-23 was going for my eyes. A few of my LOA Ninja Attacked her, but well just like the man she was created from Ninjas are are a slight warm up to X-23.

Gwen was too busy leading the rest of my army against the robots. Luckily I recover in time to avoid getting skewered. " Come on Auntie Laura don't be like this."

" You tried to kill my brother Bruce Briefs, My friend ship with your family will not protect you from revenge."

She lunges for my neck but now that I'm not distracted her body language is an open book. I dodge her claws and return a shot to her stomach that would shatter a mountain it leaves a big hole in her gut, one that starts healing immediately.

" Look Laura you Logans are hard to kill. He regenerated from the wounds I gave him and you will too unless I tear off your head. Let your brother fight his own battles. I don't want to have to explain to my Dad, and Aunt Vella why I beheaded you."

A very familiar voice comes from no where. " That's not happening kiddo." I'm Punched a thousand times per second. I'm then knocked through the force Field my troops were trying to break through before Laura showed up.

" Thaddeus !" I yell in challenge.

" Hey kiddo you talk about beheading my girl I get a little testy." He slows down in front of me wearing some strange combo of his Inertia, and Reverse Flash costumes.

" Oh the Costume? Grandma Iris didn't appreciate me wearing Zoom's old outfit.So I changed..."

" Thaddeus I told you in the message not to interfere!" Laura screams

" Oh and I'm just supposed to let you go on a suicide mission? If you kill him... Cassandra would hunt you down That is if he doesn't kill you.

Mom Might actually lose to X-23 but it wouldn't get that far Laura had her one chance when the temporal rip had changed my memories, Without well X has no chance against me.

" Look Laura if you won't listen to me I know someone you will listen too!" I expected Aunt Vella. Not...

" What the Hell Are ya Playin' at girl me, and Vegetable Brain buried the hatchet 20 years ago ya tryin' ta start that up again?"

" Just because you are afraid of Vegeta.." Laura starts.

" I ain't afraid O' nothin' Laura! You And Jaimie have more important things ta do like Helpin' save mutant kind!"

I Forget About this and fly into the citadel where the Robot leader is stationed I expected TX not Megatron's head.

Gwen had some kind of freak out , and said " I.. must crush you, and put you in a pretty dress!" I have no clue what that's supposed to mean.

She jumps at the head, and falls off a force field. " Fool! Cain we had a great deal going on in West City!" The head growls. And you just had to ruin it, Saiyan... Could you get the yellow haired female to stop jumping at the barrier it's really annoying."

" I don't Know I haven't seen Gwen this riled u in a while..." All of the sudden the barrier, was breached by what looked like A green, and yellow blur.

" Bruce Blow up the head, and get this over with." Thad was using his speed to knock a hole in the Field I have no idea how that works.. but as long as it does.

I shrug "Okay here's a classic Big Bang Attack!"

Pieces Of robot head disperse everywhere and I take out the citadel too. I grab Gwen ,and fly her out of there, she pouts. " Aww i can't put Meg in a dress."

" Uh huh." This looks like one of her bad days. After destroying all the rest of the stragglers. I go back to Laura, and Wolverine. " so Ami Going to have to blow up a clone?"

" Jaimie will have to fight his own fights Just do not come after him!"

" He leaves me alone I leave him alone." I answer she nods, and walks away.

" Uncle Thad sorry about all of this....'

" Don't worry kid it's always one dram or another with her ever since we were teens so why did you mess up her brother?"

" He talked dirty about with mom..."

Thad grins " You should have let him try it on Ms Bats That'd would have been funny if he put that dork's claws where the sun doesn't shine. See you kid."

I had finally killed or defeated all of West City's war lords the people wanted me to stay, and protect them, like grandpa Vegeta used to but if they want it they have to live by my rules.

They accepted, now I'm no longer just a killer, but a prince with a kingdom. And no one is going to take it from if they do I'll blow them up or break them leaving the Mark of Cain.

Hmmm maybe I should have an heir to give my kingdom to some day... I think me and Gwen should start working on that.

The End.

War Journal : Red Hood

2009-10-29T20:53:00.000-07:00

Continued from here.

I've heard of the red Hood before. That he was a killer of scum, but also he had weird habits, like dating teenage girls, and making women he he's been with wear blue wigs. Also he worked for a scuzz bag like Tony Stark.

What I didn't know was he actually is a teenager, from the sound of his voice I'd say he's about eighteen or nineteen. “Look tall dark and snarly I was just trying get some info on the Heroslayer so I could pop a cap in him." He grumbles under his hood.

My trigger finger gets itchy " You worked for Toy Stark , Hood why should I trust the you're not going to try, and recruit him in some evil plan of his?"

“Evil Plan? Where do you get your dialogue? Look Stark was right even if you people are too bull headed to admit it. If I was trained better I wouldn't have been beaten to death with a crowbar by a sick clown."

Seems this kid has issues, and Iron Man worked on them. Before I can say anything some kid with an ugly mask puts a knife to my throat.

" Put down the Gun Skull Face shirt guy, or I'll slit your throat."

I can think of at least 20 ways to get out of this but I think I'll team up with them I can use them as meat shields when I get to Heroslayer. If they do betray me I'll have them right there where I can shoot all three together.

“Ok fine seems all three of us have the same objective, to kill Heroslayer we the weapons dealer gave me the location of his normal hang out. It’s an hour's far off drive we'll take my van."

The Red Hood smugly states. “Yeah I thought you'd change your tune that's why everyone needs a sidekick come on Scarlet."

The drive was annoying with Scarlet constantly whining about her face, and Red Hood talking in his sleep. We park outside his hideout which on the outside looks like a crime museum. I wake up the Red Hood.

“We’re here, and what's this Vidalia you keep whining about?"

“Never mind let's get ready to do this!" I ask.

He goes behind my van for some reason and I do a last second check on my weapons. Well this'll be a nice change of pace, usually I have to team up with a colorful here or anti hero in a goofy costume I'm glad I don't have to do that this time, then he comes out from behind the van.

Crap. Ah well there went that “so are we going to scout the place, and disable all the security system, then sneak in on him?" Red Hood asks.

“No I reply taking a bazooka out of my bag and blowing an entrance in the side of the wall.

He slaps his palm into his face “there goes all the element of surprise."

We don't need it we have guns.

Gwen Brown:Another Warlord

2009-07-26T19:57:00.000-07:00

Sometime in the near future....

You know I gotta say being the bad guy is a lot more fun, and the good guy. Superheroes have all these rules and codes, But ever since I hooked up with Bruce We've been doing the basic same thing as a hero, but we've been killing the really bad ones it seems like we're actually doing something, then again they say I'm loony toons.

Like the West City thing. We took out that Alcurad freak, well not killing him but we freed all the people in his sector, and killed most of his army.

The problem now is super villains are harder to kill than monsters. Yes the second warlord of West City is a super villain, in fact he's the kid. of Match, and Fury. Devastation. What is it with that family not using nouns for names?

No wait a minute I call my self "Vendetta" never mind. ( hey it's better than Sparrow.) But my real name is Gwen... Oh I'm rambling again. To the point Brown!

Brucie, and his cult like ninja followers had snuck their way into Devastation's lair. Me I went the direct approach firing bullets and arrows into everything that moved.

Then of course Devastation showed up, and who the heck knew he had the power to create delusions? He made Bruce see the ninjas as alternate versions of his family. His one weakness he won't kill family.

Like what if Batgirl, had a kid with Superboy.. or some nameless normal shlub, or what if Vincent, had kids, with Supergirl, or Stargirl.. or what ever. The ninjas he thought weren't super powered got off lucky, he just knocked them out. the ones he thought were saiyans or whatever else... well the punch it takes to ko one of them will have the head of a normal person punted for a mile.

I sneak up on Devy then I start seeing weird things.

At least that stuff was funny until hallucination Tim Drake showed up in his stupid Red Robin get up.

" Stop lecturing me! You can't tell me what to do! You named yourself after a burger restaurant! You're not my real father!" I scream.

" What the Sparrow?" Devastation looks surprised.

" Why all the shock you were making me see delusions."

" Um I didn't even know you were here." he responds. great so all of that was just imagination time. " But I should have know, where ever Bruce Wayne Briefs goes Sparrow is with him."

"Ooh! he doesn't like being called 'Wayne' he likes Cain .Him, and his gramps don't get along. and you called me Sparrow I'm Vendetta now. I just have to shoot you now. "

He starts laughing " I'm part Kryptonian, I'm invulnerable! Please try to kill me!"

I point the guy at his eye. " Okay!" I fire he drops dead. " Didn't guess I had Kryptonite bullets did you smart guy?" My Man stops seeing all the the hallucinations.

" What did I do?"Bruce asks.

" You were beating on your own ninjas, but don't worry I saved you... well then you owe me You have to do whatever I want tonight!"

He mumbled so meting then commands the ninja " Secure this territory, and and free the slave workers. Looks like we've only have one territory to free and West City will be mine... I mean liberated."

Oh boy next is the robot that have taken the last of the city, A another Ninja runs up to Bruce " Sir our men are being attacked by Wolverine's offspring!"

Cain snorts." The beating I gave Ishikawa wasn't enough for him?"

" It's not him One Who is all It's his sister."

" Wild thing? Bah! Who cars? You should be able to take care of her!"

" Not Wild Thing master Talon!"

Cain growls So Laura doesn't like how I beat on her brother, leave X-23 to me boys."

" Who Master?"

" Bah! I mean Talon.. whatever she's calling herself do not engage her. " he bows and he skitters out of the room. " You know Gwen Given Laura's relation ship with my Father's best friend, and her friendship with my aunt this'll be very interesting very interesting indeed." He gets that evil smirk on his face I wonder what he's up to?

Match: well that was a cluster@$#^

2009-06-16T21:09:00.000-07:00

Me, and Fury escaped the fight with Legacy. That Inertia clone that I unleashed on the world had it's brain, and and heart eaten by something, something that I don't think any member of Legacy is nuts enough to do. Well maybe Vincent.

the rest of our little group was locked into the Vault except for Heroslayer, he apparently killed himself couldn't happen to a nicer nut job. But that does bring up a dilemma. We didn't get paid.

So we did what any self respecting super villain would do, we looted his HQS. Took as much money as we could find, and stole the all of his machines, and devices. what we didn't want to keep, we sold to other super villains.

So now that we have some money we're thinking of going on a little vacation. We were thinking somewhere hot and tropical that takes in the more evil kind, but without all these zombies that are attacking everyone lately what's up with that?

Well we did find a nice little resort with the right amount of money laundering and no asking questions. I was on the beach drinking some weird tropical drink that I'm sure has no alcohol in it... or my my powers are fighting off the effects stupid Kryptonian powers. When I hear Fury ask " Wanna play touch football?"

I look up to say how dumb an idea that is when well take a look.

I can't believe it took me this long to discover it was a clothes optional resort... I'm really going to like my vacation.

This has gone south.

2009-05-25T20:27:00.000-07:00

You know there are some rules that he Flash's rouges keep trying to impart to the younger villains. Me I never cared but one rule Captain Cold Told me I wish I listened to, never work with nuts I wish I listened to.

Heroslayer's team of misfits Defeated Legacy with the help of the Inertia clone I found.

What does 'Slayer do after he beats them kills them, and goes on to the next stage in his plan? No he wants to do something much dumber he ties them up, and brags about how he beat them.

Oh well at least it gives me time to check out Spoiler with my X-ray vision.

This of course pisses Fury off, but she being angry she's still the one I feel most comfortable with on this team. The aforementioned Heroslayer is coo coo for Coco puffs.

This saiyan girl called Calera wears an Orange ring like the Green lanterns, and keeps blabbing “Mine! Mine! Mine!" But the weird thing is I hear no heartbeat from her, and when I try to use my vision powers the I see through her like she's a hologram with a ring floating around it.

The Parasite chick keeps looking at me as if I'm a steak dinner. Also there's this alternate reality Mandarin in a Shredder suit that’s like 16 maybe. That guy ain't the Mandarin; the Mandarin is some old dude with a bunch of rings.

And the Inertia clone, Kid Zoom That I found for this team by the way, isn't acting like Thad Thawne did in his evil period , he's off somehow I can't quite place my finger on what though.

Fury growls at me “You need to stop undressing Spoiler with your eyes babe."

“Yeah like you aren't drooling over Tony Stark Jr. over there.” I reply.

“Mmm If only he'd grow a beard...." She smiles before Heroslayer is smacked by Batgirl who somehow escaped her bonds, Spoiler threw something in my eyes. Of course they'd all escape that’s what heroes do when you leave them tied up and waiting for a bomb to blow stupid Heroslayer.

“That’s for lusting after me." Spoiler jokes as I wipe whatever this stuff is out of my eyes.

“Hey you're a hot blonde." I shrug.

“Great first Inertia then you, my milkshake brings all the clones to the yard why can't it keep Robin interested?"

“Honey I hate to break it to you but Robin's gay." I shrug.

“HE IS NOT GAY!" Spoiler screams.

“We all heard about him rejecting naked Ravager." I explain.

“He didn't want STD's." Spoiler remarks as I see Stark jump onto what looks like a tiny scooter then roll into some door while Fake Mandarin is helping is helping Caulera Fight off GL Vella.

He busts out a few minutes later in his armor.

He starts chasing around Kid Zoom, Man I've been wanting to punch Inertia for quite sometime... But you'll do. "

" HA! Ya can't even touch me!" Zoom States before slipping on some axel grease that Iron Lad spilled on the ground near him.

"You were saying?" Ironlad laughs before giving the fallen clone a right cross. Ow that had to hurt. Fake Mandarin yells at the armored hero “You will face only me Iron Man!"

“First off it's Iron Lad and second off Mandy I've got plenty of whoop ass to pass around!" He states before blasting his repulsors at the fake Mandy

I took my attention of Spoiler, and now she was dodging Fury's metal shredding punches. I see Batgirl who put down Heroslayer for the time being challenge me.

Meh why not? I owe her for defeating me in one of the World’s toughest henchmen challenges.

I start over there flying when something just as fast as I am knocks me back when my eyes clear I see it's Batchick's little saiyan boy toy.

“You don't touch my mate! And this is for messing with my sister's head! He kicks me through the wall into the outside, and then he blasts me. And that was for frying me with your Heat Vision!"

I chuckle “What makes you think it's going to end differently this time?" I ask as I throw an Uppercut at his jaw sending blood flying.

He turns all weird and hairy and he growls “What doesn't kill me makes me stronger. And your little heat vision trick made me a lot more powerful he then knees me in the gut.

The Parasite flies up behind Vincent using the power she stole from Supergirl. “Yes you are very strong, I will feed on you power!"

Back off you Leech!" Vincent shouts firing Ki at the purple chick instead of hurting her it makes her stronger

“Firing your life energy at me not smart when that's what I feed on!" The half saiyan starts flying away at supersonic speeds I think I see where he's going he's trying to drain the Parasite getting her to use up her energy chasing him so there's a brain in that thick skull after all.

I shoulder tackle Vince and slam him back into the Legacy building. He lands right by Kara who still is too weak to fight thanks to the purple people eater. The Parasite is about to make another meal of Vince When he puts his hand on his forehead and shouts "Solar Flare!"

He used some of the sun’s energy to create a blinding light. The Parasite was blinded me well all it did was recharge me. "You may have gotten the Parasite -Girl off your back with that move but I'm a solar battery you made me stronger!"

“You’re not the only one "cousin" Match. I look over before Supergirl slams her fist into my nose. I'm knocked through all the building’s floors until I hit the basement. I pass out for a few minutes, and when I wake I find myself in a weird parody of the Batcave.

I guess this is where Batchick lives. Damn it Vincent was trying to recharge Kara This fight isn't going our way Legacy is working as a team now that he element of surprise is gone we're getting out butts handed to us. I could escape right now, and no one would know.

No I can't leave Fury here that bomb is going to go off, and both legacy, and the other villains are going to go with it, or Legacy will win, and defuse the bomb putting Fury back in prison. I'm getting her before I escape screw all the others.

I fly through the holes my body broke into all of the floors, and Find the Parasite frozen by Kara's breathe. I look around, and find Fury being put on the defensive by Slobo who's firing some kind of laser at her.

I'm about to use my TTK to incapacitate him and get my girl outta here. When I hear Spoiler scream. " No! Let her go! Please!"

I turn to see Kid Zoom holding a little blonde girl about two or three years old. He’s got his hand around her throat. “Surrender now!" he threatens. “Or I put my hand through the brat's chest!" He grins, blood streaming from his lip.

This freak is more psychotic than the real Thad Thawne that’s what I was picking up on after I freed him! Okay back to Rouge's rules one they tried to teach us was whatever you do to a hero, or a rival villain is okay but never hurt a kid.

This one I actually listened to. And looks like the other villains here did too, as they're stare in shock they can tell by look in Kid Zoom's eyes he isn't bluffing he's going to kill that poor kid.

And if he does Kid Zoom won't be far behind because I'll kill him myself.

TBC

Match: In prision again.

2009-04-27T20:52:00.000-07:00

Damn it! There was this superhero convention in Metropolis, ( It's not like the city needs anymore heroes with the Super dorks there.) me and Fury get paid to rough up this one hero who was there, away from his city , and allies and who shows up? Freaking Superman that's who!

He defeated us and had us locked up. Because I escaped several times before I'm locked up in a red sun room this time the walls made of thick Adamantium. No Tactile Telekinesis or the Kryptonian powers. I guess unless I think of something I'm stuck here for quite some time.

After I think this the cell is opened. And the Heroslayer is on the other side. Great... the Heroslayer. Biggest nut around. Most of us super criminals want power or money The others want revenge.

But this guy is a serial killer with his own delusions of grandeur. My usual rule is don't work with someone who's motives I don't understand." What do you want nut ball?" I ask.

" A world without costumed hypocrites who live under the delusion of heroism" he answers. " But for now you to work along side me."

I roll my eyes. " Why would I work for some guy who sees a hornet's nest, and wants to chuck a rock at it?" I sneer.

" You want to kill Superboy I can help you do that by joining my Dark Titans."

I have a huge laugh at that. " Sorry Pal I was already on an evil version of Teen Titans Team. I ended up with freaking Jericho stuck in my body for a few months, and locked up at STAR labs don't want to replay that again."

"Oh Okay then Match I guess I'll just leave you here, and won't pay you the money I had waiting for you. Or the chance to get back at Team Legacy for all the humiliations they've heaped on you lately."

I admit Legacy members have had an annoying habit of beating me up but that's what superheroes do. They really aren't on enemies list man in fact I'd like to get the Spoiler alone some time, she'd be calling me "Boy Wonder" Afterwards she's one mom I'd like to..

" Hey!" Heroslayer gets me out of my fantasy. " You want out or not?"

Sigh. I don't want to be in another evil Titans but I do want free, and i do want the money. " Spring Fury, and we have a deal."

So That's how I find myself with my girl in a ship with a hooded psychopath going who knows where a few minutes later. Fury Whispers. " Can we trust this Loony Toon?"

" We play along for the money and our freedom. But at the first sign of it going bad we ditch him, or we kill him but you know maybe we could use one more person on our side... Hey Slayer! if you're still recruiting I have another person to join this little squad."

Bruce Cain: Sibling rivalry.

2009-04-21T19:13:00.000-07:00

Some time in the near future.

For months now I've been fighting off attacks from the warlords here in West City after I took out Alucard. Lucky I got rid of Wolverine's illegitimate son after a few weeks.

I became annoyed after he kept saying dirty things about what he'd do to my mother. " Too bad my parents actually love each other, and married unlike yours one night stand boy!"

" What?" he growled.

" I was planned rodent. Wolverine fathered you when he was thought the woman he actually loved was dead, when he found out she was alive he went back to her, and left Shi with you! I've seen how's he's treated his other kids, Daken, Laura all the rest you're the only one he treats like a mistake!"

That made him jump me with his ki claws out that was his last mistake I stabbed the freak with his own claws Then blasted into them making them about the size of my head.

" As he layed there I whispered into his ear " You don't mess with a saiyan prince and you don't mess with a Cain. I'm half of both Although it's too late for you I suppose you can take that into the next life with you well if you don't regenerate that is. "

I tossed his body into the ocean after leaving the Mark of Cain Gwen smiled and yelled "bad doggy!"

" Yes yes he was." I sensed my stalker again She's been watching me for the last few months although I don't get why she didn't help us us with those robo zombies last week brrr, reminded me of those Stories Aunt vella told us about the Blackest Night.

Instead of returning to Capsule Corp I flew to the first Legacy Base. An old house in the middle of nowhere with a cave besides it a my mom's second Batcave. " Come on out Babsie I know you're watching me !"

My Sis jumps and the two of us do what we always do when we see each other, we fight." feeling nostalgic Bruce? Too bad you disrespect out Mother4 evreytime you get into a fight!"

" Please even Mom would kill if it was to save lives that's what I'm doing!" I retort Punching her into the old decrepit Legacy House.

She spits out blood. " You've gotten better short stuff alot better you can almost live up to being called the One Who Is All almost !"

before she can counter Gwen jumps on to her shoulders and puts a gun to her head. " Naughty naughty From one daughter of an abused comic book character to another stop before I fill your head with Admantuim."

" Comic book? You see what you did Bruce you wished her back too late! She's gone completely insane!" Barbara yells.

"Yes I know But this time she's not off there's an alternate reality Where Batgirl. and Spoiler are comic characters though they get the details wrong about what happened alot. We have that reality to thank for Supernut Prime Gwen was apparently there on some sort of mission before she died, and well... "

" Why can't DC let mommy be happy?" Gwen shouts.

Me , and Babs stare at each other. " Okay Gwen we'll stop fighting I need your help any way. "

" Hmph! Funny way of showing it." I remark.

" This city is split up into to three sections Monsters , robots and Supervillians they've been abusing the human population here ever since Grandpa Vegeta abandoned the city. "

I roll my eyes "I know that sis i killed the monsters remember?"

" That's the point Bruce." Babs States. " You put a scare into the supervillians , an d the robots the machines sent Half machine zombies after you the supervillians found a time machine and went into the past to try and kill our parents a kind of temporal abortion."

" That wouldn't work with the Dragon Balls." I explain.

Babs snorts " Destroy just one of them ,and the other six are useless. I was sneaking around their base and have the two two times in history they're going to attack."

"I also have this." she throws a capsule and Uncle Mirai's time machine pops out of it.

" Oh no Time travel! " Gwen Yells " The present is going to change again! My head will hurt some more trying to catalogue all the changes."

We get in despite Gwen's protests and the place we land looks familiar, Me, and Gwen Mow down the Super villains, Babs whines " Why are you killing them? "

" It's the only way they'll learn !" Gwen announces. then a group of Cyborgs runs in and I remember why this place gave me such deja vu. I chased a group of cyborgs here. And found they were already killed.

In fact I'm staring at those very Cyborgs now. I was the one that killed them now I see what Gwen means about time travel. i tore through all of the cyborgs, and blew up the base. The whole time my sister belly aching I shoved her into the time machine before my past self showed up. I don't know what happens if you run into yourself in the past but it can't be good.

After a quick stop to warn young mom, and dad when they were going to get attacked again we went to the second attack Looked like Legacy had already beat thenm . so this is when Supergirl first joined the team, and Uncle Thad had a temporary case of dead.

Aunt Vella cried something about how she missed Jason before they tied up the killers , and went to call the police.

Babs gave a weird look. " I visited Aunt Vella in our time the other day, and got a disturbing view of her, and Uncle Jason."

Gwen Screams " I knew it changed! AAAAAHHHH!!!!"

" Or Aunt Vella, and Uncle Jason get back together sometime in the future." I respond. ' And Babs you really need to learn to knock." While Legacy is distracted I kill all the would be murders with a blast.

Babs grabbed me. and Gwen, and tossed us into the time machine. When we get back to our own time she scolds me. " You're nothing but a cold blodded killer!"

" You're a saiyan girl act like it!"

" No I'm not a saiyan! I'm only part saiyan! and so are you! you've embraced the killing side of our family! I should have known you'd never be redeemed! Even when you try to do good you slaughter people!"

And you keep trying to suck up to Bruce Wayne!" I shoot back. " Wearing his bat symbol trying to be 'Batwoman' that's mom not you Grandpa Bruce will never accept you! He hates our dad and will will always look at us with shame! And i think I know why did you notice that ring on dad's finger in the past? "

" What you're suggesting they're married? or back than But Dad was seventeen mom was eighteen. I knew they married but that young? But... they didn't have us until their mid 20's. It doesn't matter It doesn't matter if Grandpa Bruce dislikes me!I'm doing what's right! And you'll always be a villain!"

" You'll always be a fool!" I smirk.

" You know!" she shrieks. Have your little war in West City Become a warlord for all I care! But if I see you in my city I'll lock you up brother or no brother!"

She flies off. I order The LOA to get ready to mobilize for action.
As the assassins gather their things. Gwen asks " What are we gonna do tonight Brain?"

I sigh. " The warlords tried to kill me, and my parents, we're going to make them drown in their own blood."

Match Elimnated. Or turning lemons into lemonade.

2009-03-03T18:55:00.000-08:00

I was just eliminated from World's Toughest Henchman. Meh. I made it to the final three, and got to have some fun destroying whatever was in my way. I will admit leaving this hotel room kind of sucks though me and Fury have kind of trashed it.

Hey what can I say? Boy of steel, girl of steel, hotel room of Kleenex.

Fury comes up to me with all these papers.

" What's this?"

She smiles. " Job offers."

" What?" I respond.

She grins . " A lot of people saw how we accomplished things on the show, and they want to hire us."

" Hmmm why not? That thug in Las Vegas Joe Fixit takes money from heroes to assist them. Match, and Fury villains for hire . I like the sound of that."

So the two of us are starting up a business. Oh, and I hear Superboy, and Wondergirl are coming after us. well bring it you losers. Two more Titans will end up on the dead list if you do though.

Meeting two ladies

2008-12-26T20:39:00.000-08:00

I am Alucard, The son of Vlad Dracula. I got rather bored with Drakulon it had been at least two centuries since I was in the Wars of Darkness. So I came to Earth Where both my Father, and my Mother Lilith seem to have all their little schemes going right now.

They all of course deal with my half sister Vampirella. Me I don't really care about all that, I went to Earth looking for some distractions what I found was a bunch of vampire wanna be sycophants who were easily swayed And given just enough Vampire venom to be my slaves , but not enough to be turned into vampires. Okay I have turned a few into vampires just the ones that can be useful.

They provide me with blood, so I can't complain. Although they have been less than subtle about drinking blood, they have put me on under the attention of local so called "Superheroes".

A group that calls themselves “Legacy". I heard there were two saiyans in the group. I only knew one Saiyan in my life a King around a thousand years ago named Spinakha.

His son Vegeta murdered him; I hear Vegeta's son is now the king. Any Way since I haven't run into one in ten centuries I recruited a being who has had dealing's with them a being called Cooler.

He's in some kind of group called the Sinestro Corps some kind of wanna be evil Green Lanterns. I recruited him when some of my servants describe a saiyan Green Lantern.

This is odd that these people would just start attacking my minions, When they actually attack my home I see why a group of new members being led by Iron Lad.
Cooler Attacked The Green Lantern.

While they're fighting a Robot Cooler called a "Man Hunter."

It sucked power out of he strangely colored haired girl’s power ring and though the young saiyan female was stronger than Cooler his ring gave him the victory. I bit this man called the “Red Hood” making him into my slave I sent him to attack the clawed mutant girl.

She tore through his armor but the Hood shot her in the head. She somehow survived that but was taken down when she was hit in the knees with some odd looking crowbar.

Oddly she should be dead after being shot in the fore head, but she lives. The Kid Iron Man blasts many of my servants with some kind of fake sunlight that vaporizes them instantly me? It just gives a slight tan.

“That’s impossible! You're a vampire!'

“I’m a Drakulonian. The sun doesn't affect us like it does human vampires." I snarl and take advantage of his surprise by tearing into his armor. He recovers and hits me with something called a repulsor. Then a chest laser thing.

Cooler, The Red Hood, and my surviving servants join the fight. This gives me enough time to conjure a spell further damaging his armor.

With all the attacks on all fronts He goes down hard. I just wanted to kill them. But Cooler uses his ring to beam a message all over the planet. “Son Goku, I have defeated This Girl..." he points at the Green Lantern I am going to send her to the pleasure planets to be a pleasure girl... unless you come out of hiding, and face me."

Hours later. I ask this former king if he is sure that this blue haired girl is this third class warrior Son Goku's daughter.

“Of course when I battled her in the Sinestro Corps War she acted just like that fool."

I get a good look at the girl's face, and she reminds of the warrior woman who stole my old friend's heart all those centuries ago, this looks as if she can be her great grand daughter despite the blue hair.

“Check her DNA." I command. I can tell this makes him bristle but he uses his ring anyway.

The ring “The female is a hybrid, mother of Earth origin. Human. Father of saiyan origin DNA match found. The father is identified as King Vegeta the second. Once known as the prince of all saiyans."

I spit. "She's is of noble birth like the two of us! A noble will not become a flesh toy I will give her an honorable death."

As I was about to bite the young woman's neck, a strange weapon in the shape of a bat cuts my face. I turn and I am astonished, two girls who seem as if they are creatures of the night themselves descend upon us.

Others attack us as well what looks like a teenage version of that ruffian Lobo. A blonde girl who is wearing the Kryptonian symbol for hope on her chest, and some other. But I am not interested in them. I use my powers to see what my creatures of the night look like under their masks.

Beautiful. I believe I will introduce my self... when I Blasted by a young male saiyan.

“I don't like how you’re looking at my girl freak." Ah A jealous boyfriend I will dispatch this one easily. I knock him down, and am thrown back as the boy's hair turns gold, and eyes become green, he also gets slightly taller more muscle.

"Ah so you are a so called Super Saiyan. Well killing you will be a little more difficult, but will be a worthy challenge." I remark.

“Just bring it." he snipes.

I will have to teach this a lesson.

Attacking Alcurad

2008-11-06T19:36:00.000-08:00

Some time in the near future.

For the last few weeks we've been scouting Alucrad's territory in West City. The City has been split amongst four warlords Alcurad Is the son of Vlad Dracule or as he's more commonly known Dracula.

My cousin Wolfgang has been having a feud with the Dracule family like his mother Vampirella before him. Lucky he didn't bring that Cammy girl I met the last time I saw I aunt Vampi with him she bugs the Hell out of me.

I wonder what Wolfgang would say if I told him I remember a time when he didn't even exist. I suppose a world with out Black Zero ruling had the chance to create people who weren't in it originally.

With me are my League of Assassins, My mate Gwen, and the son of Wolverine, and Shi. Jamie Howlett. Have no idea what Rodent Jr is doing here. Probably looking for trouble.

Alucard's part is hell for the people here. They’re all raised as farm animals fro the monsters here the zombies, creatures, etc. eat the flesh, while the vampires drink the blood.

I admit I've done some things that some will consider evil but this is a new low. The Rodent spawn puts his claws in my face. “Well bub? Are we going to do something about this? Are going to play live action Metal Gear for a few more weeks?"

“Get your ki claws out of my face or I'll remind you what happens when a Logan threatens a Saiyan Prince."

“You mean qi claws."

“No I mean Ki!"

“Qi!"

"Ki!"

Gwen gets in between us “Children please! This is not stealthy."

“I am not a child Gwen." I admonish.

"Then act like it." She growls.

“Sigh. Attack! “I order all the others stationed around the area heard my order telepathically. Wolfgang killed the guards of the pins in the blink of and then released the humans and gave them weapons. While other monsters tried to back up the others.

They were taken out by the assassins, others of my group attacked different parts of Alucard’s territory. While this chaos was happening I fly Gwen, And Jamie to the his base an insult to my family as I'm sure it's meant to be Capsule Corp.

I snuck in using a teleporter Great Grandpa Briefs built into the place. It would piss him, and grandma off to see what happened to all the inventions they had created they were scattered, and destroyed; many neglected collecting dust, and cobwebs.

We exit the room, and go down the corridors when female Vampires, the human changed kind. ‘Join us forever..." They purr.

“I smirk and look over the rodent.” Sic 'em boy."

“Bite me monkey. Any way darlings your vampire whiles won't work on me graaaar!"

As he slashes them with his energy claws I sniff out where Alcurad's putrid scent. I find him in the what used to be grandfather Vegeta's Gravity Room.

“I expected another Saiyan frankly." He laughs then he smells me. “Cassandra? You’re Cassandra's child?" I smirk as I see his pain in his body language " She bred with that saiyan?!"

Gwen shoots him in the face with a an arrow that sprays garlic in his face a full blooded Drakulonain like Alucard wouldn't die from that allergy but that has to sting. “We’re taking over this territory Stalker!" She declares

"Ah young Gwen. You have grown quite beautiful. The spitting image of Stephanie. Tell me is your mother still with that pathetic Batman wannabe?"

"None of your business weirdo." She spits.

“I offered your mothers immortality, and yet they spurned me in lieu of a life of growing old with a mundane human athlete, and a saiyan's offspring."

"Yeah I'm sure they would have loved being blood sucking parasites." Gwen grunts.

While they're talking I try to lop his head off with my sword. He catches my blade. His body language says he was going to try to bite me instead he ate my fist.

He tries a couple of times more to hit me actually landing a shot or two but mostly ending up on the floor. The next second I'm blasted by some kind of magic my whole body stings as I'm thrown through the wall.

While I recover Gwen fight with Alucard blasting him with a solar gun, and a pair of Adamantium gloves, don't know where she got those, he catches her by the neck. “I’ll turn you into a vampire girl I'm not giving you a choice."

At that moment I break out of the rubble pissed.

Gwen kicks him in the balls then flips out of the way I snarl. “Burn!" I fire Dragon Flame. He jumps out the window set ablaze. I watch as he flies off into the distance all my assassins call in, and tell me the monsters are all are dead.

There's a weird thing, all the warlords did they put up flags, and graffiti all over there territories with a symbol. Alcurad's was a bat how convientnt since my mother, and adopted grandfather loved to dress like bats.

I ordered my minions to alter with something my father will be happy about when he hears about it the Saiyan Royal symbol. So now it's a combination representing both of my heritages.

After everything settles down Wolfgang leaves to fight Alucard. Me I get the fun of trying to organize the newly freed people. I look over to Jaime “So when are you going to leave?"

“I’m not going anywhere rookie haven't had this kind of fun in some time." Great.

Meanwhile...

"Tch! That's the last of monster Bruce's followers let go. Bah! Stupid assassins what are up to Bruce? I will find out little brother. And if I don't like the answer I'm shutting you and your ninja groupies down."

I hate family reunions.

2008-09-25T18:56:00.000-07:00

Sometime in the near future

I left Gwen to do well whatever it was she was doing, and got visited from my cousin, and the Rodent Spawn They told me about how West City was devastated while I was gone in the time stream.

Ugh. No more time travel for me. It just keeps screwing things up. I picked up Gwen, at New Gotham having some kind of crazy conversation with her mother, and the New Batman, Terry.

I meet up with my cousin. "Vampiro" Wolfgang Briefs

And the Rodent boy Jamie and his little. " Ki claws."

“So what's up with the vampire saiyan, and baby Wolverine?" Gwen sneers.

“Since when do you act like Ravager Darling?" Rodent boy asks. “And is Batwoman going to be here?" he plays with his hair “She’s one fine lady."

“You do know you're talking about my mother don't you Howlett?" I growl.

“So we all make mistakes." He grins.

“Quiet you two stop acting like children on a playground. Or in your case Cain our grandfather." Wolfie hisses. “Aunt Cassandra wouldn't want to be a part of this Jamie. She always had an aversion to killing, and this is going to get bloody."

“What are we going to do anyway?" Gwen pipes in.

“Well Gwen the city has been cut up in sections by warlords Super villians, mostly though one is Vlad's son."

"Alucard." Gwen shivers.

" You know him?" Vampiro asks.

"Yeah he was an enemy of Legacy's, had a thing for my mom, and Bruce's mom. He tried to mind control them a few times, and was a creepy stalker."

" Hmph. Like father like son." Vampiro spits.

“So pretty much we kill them, and free the city also we take out all the monsters roaming around." I surmise. “Okay I've already called the LOA they'll be here by tomorrow."

I sense two high power levels a guy at first who I think is my Grandfather Vegeta but starts laughing, and giggling sigh my cousin Son Vegeta, and his brother who looks like a pissed off Goku. Son Bardock, Bra and Goten's brats.

“Hello Bruce you're coming with us." Bardock orders.

“Nice to see you too. Now go away." I smirk.

“But Cain you can help a lot of people if you know come with us." Son Vegeta tried the good cop approach.

“Not interested in helping Grandpa fight whoever he's ticked off this week especially since you didn't invite our cousin.”

"You're a Saiyan Prince, just the same as I you should care about your people, and not whatever measly thing you and the Drakulonian prince are going to do here."

“West City is where you grew up it was pretty important to my mom, granddad too at one time. I'm not leaving it in this state."

“Look here mama's boy!" Bardock shouts.

“Are you forgetting who broke your arm when I was six, and you were a teenager?" I sneer.

Son Veg put his arm around me.

We all feel a huge power level.

“Checking up on me father?" I ask.

“Nope. Just curious why all my family are here, Bardock, Vegeta did Father send you here?"

“Well Uncle Vincent..." Veg starts.

“Don’t answer. I already know just had a long angry conversation with him well he was angry, at you two for how did he put it? Oh yeah “Those deserting sons of the Clown Spawn! I didn't tell them to go to Earth if you see them tell them to get their asses back here before I go and get them!"

“was that all he said?" Son Vegeta gulps.

“Well there was a lot of 'Bah'!" Dad laughs. “I’d think you'd better go before he gets here or worse yet my big sister."

They both fly off. “So what are you doing here Boy?" Dad asks,

“What you should have done already." I glare.

“You could be right Bruce, but your mother didn't see anyway to save this city without killing, and you know your mom. Same thing I've been dealing with since I was sixteen."

“Maybe she needs a real man..." Jamie jumped in.

“You wouldn't last three minutes... boy." Father laughs. " then after the City fell there was so much we had to deal with... fine I won't tell Cass what your up to, but if you need my help call."

He flies off.

“So what do we hit first Jamie asks

“Capsule Corp. We take back our home first." I state now all there is left to do is wait for the LOA to get here.

Time to get even

2008-08-21T18:44:00.000-07:00

The near future.

This time travel thing has me really confused I know people say I'm insane or whatever, but come on I wake up, and Aunt Vella's kid is now named Peter Todd. My memories of how things happened ain't true anymore, and it annoys me.

That Bruce is acting weird. I mean he's being all sociable, and junk. I think the new history got to him. Either that or he's got something cooking. Though it reminds me of the days when I used to wish Bruce would act a better but I realized the world had gone to hell.

But now he's talking to Wolverine's son, Jamie Ishikawa Howlett and that weird half Drakulonian cousin of his. Mirai's and Vampi's biological kid. Victor or whatever.

While they go on some kind of meeting, I decide it's time I take out the Black Widow. Let Bruce do whatever the hell he's doing. I use my old SHIELD clearance to get into their main branch and what do you know she’s off with on a mission training a bunch of newbies. In fraking Florida

I'm guessing to get as far away from Fury as possible. Lucky for me I have a teleporter I can go there in an instant. After I do I hide waiting for the right time to strike.

I jump her from behind. “Vendetta I haven't seen you in years! But I remember every hour you, and your psycho boyfriend tortured me!"

I draw a knife. “It was Justice Bitch, and not that skank daughter of Vampirella's either. You did the same to me."

“I did no such thing!" Our knives bounce off each other. We throw several punches and kicks. Damn it I wish I had Bruce's body language reading ability I'd have killed her by now.

“Those moves you're using? They are familiar..." Widow states.

“Yeah I bet every guy you sent to the grave said something like that to you in bed." I sneer I take out a gun, and fire. She somehow dodges it. “You’ve gotta be kidding me!"

I dodge out of the way of her Widow Bite. It only hits my cape. I counter with exploding arrows from my crossbow."

She grabs my throat; I flip her off me and yell “Ka ME HA ME HA!"

She dodges it but the explosion knocks her toward me I grab her neck in a choke hold. She head butts me in the fore head. She tries going for my mask we struggle a bit I'm sure I'm going to get captured if I use this next ki move but you know what? It'll be worth it. I mean I'm not a saiyan who can use her life energy like crazy

“Reign of Cain!"

Widow gasps. “Reign of Cain? Gwen?"
Gwen stop!"

“So you know my name big deal you’ll still die." I power up the move and start feeling weak.

“Gwen! You were my favorite student I’d never hurt you!" She protests.

A new flood of memories comes into my brain of Widow training me when I was a SHIELD Agent, Black Zero never took over Earth. You know when I reunited with Bruce. I asked about that psycho clone, and Bruce did that smirk He does. “He’s been taken care of.”

“Gwen ..." she puts her hand on my shoulder. “I’ve heard that some kind of experiment you, and your husband where involved in has made you ... disturbed I can see that if you believe you're an obscure villain from 2008."

“But Natasha I was Vendetta I am Vendetta."

She laughs. ' You were two at the time I remember you at those HU parties back then, Spoiler chasing you around , you stealing Jon IG's hat , and wearing it."

But Bruce you remember him right? He was on that villain show... had an immature hissy fit when he lost killing all that synthoid sluts friends."

“Ah yes you mean that psychotic experiment of David Cain's? Dr. Briefs explained that man years ago. Cain became obsessed when your husband's parents got together, and created that nut out of their DNA. To be the "Ultimate Assassin". You know we were all shocked when Cassandra named her baby boy "Bruce." That name must be important to the Cains."

I can't believe they bought that. Man Bulma nice cover story. That almost makes up for the trauma of walking in on her and Kate Kane with Vegeta watching that time EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!

Widow tried talk to me. “Gwen you called your self Sparrow, to honor the man that raised you. You're not Vendetta."

I push the button on the teleporter. I find myself back In New Gotham. I break the bones of some Jokerz. I don't feel like killing them though I can just hear the voice of Tim Drake scolding me now.

I sit on top of a building talking to the gargoyles. Until Batman pops up... Well this usurper who calls himself Batman now Terry whatever.

“Sparrow right?"

“I don't know who I am anymore."

“Yeah okay anyway, your husband is wanted for tampering with time, and you well you’re not well. I can take you back to Arkham..."

A scream interrupts us. “Aw Hell no! My baby ain't going to Arkham!"

“Mom?" I ask. “How did you get here?"

“I saw you beat up those Jokerz and I followed you. You’re quick kid but the Spoiler's still got it. Now you Tony..."

"Terry!" Batman yells.

“Yeah whatever your name is... It ain't Batman in Fact I personally liked your predecessor much better."

McGuiness growls. “Drake couldn't handle it."

This pisses off Mom." No what the old Batman... the real Batman wanted from him was too much! No one can live up to Bruce Wayne's standards you’ll find out about soon I'm sure."

A male voice laughs from above. “Well well it’s a big old Family reunion. Uncle Terry, My mother in- Law, and my wife all in one place."

Mom Nods. “Hey Bruce how's Cass doing?"

“Fine. Training, beating people up doing dad."

“You could have left the last part out, Bruce. Then again I'm not surprised you'd say something like Cass was never subtle about those things either."

Bruce sneers Terry." I just got off the communicator with My Granddad Vegeta I as a Prince of the saiyans don't have to worry about me or Gwenie getting arrested, well unless Earth wants to go to war with the Saiyan Empire."

“That symbol on your chest..." Terry clenches his fists.

“The saiyan royal family one? Oh you mean the bat symbol? Well you know my mom worked as Batgirl then Batwoman for years... I think it's time to stop hiding who my family is. Hey Vendetta, let's go."

“Don’t call me that!" I shout.

“Okay fine Gwen let's get out of here. Say hey to Uncle Tim for me Steph!"

“I won't let a killer wear that symbol!" Terry shouts as we fly away.

" Bah! Try to take it from me!" Bruce smirks.

We fly for a few minutes but I can tell we're in California I recognize a lot of the landscape from when I was a kid finally we end up at this devastated city.

“Bruce? Where are we?" I question.

"West City. This is what Rodent Boy, and Vampiro told me about it's been devastated, overrun with monsters, sand super criminals, all the normal people are slaves."

“My god." I gasp.

He crushes a rock in his hand. “And we're going to free it!"

Final battle

2008-06-13T20:05:00.001-07:00

Continued from here.

This little caper had been going well, I had freed Mirai from the trap of a sickly sweet perfect life where he had everything he wanted, including Grandpa Vegeta's approval.

We had already killed the evil Mirai and Son Goku and the Destroyer had helped there. Then the Time trapper made his presence known. I was turned into a baby; Jason Todd was aged to a decrepit old man. He wasn't long for this world.

Mirai, and Goku fused and took the fight to the Trapper, good a Grandma Bulma and Galen where doing something to Trapper's tech good just like I planned. But this baby thing. Can't say I planned that...

I watched as Vella cried over Jason." Tell me one thing..." My uncle struggles to say. “The kid?"

Vella smiles. “Of course Todd's yours dummy. Just hang on and you'll get to see him again."

Jason died right there. My aunt began smashing things. This unfortunately had distracted Gorai, who was beating down Trapper with something he called the “Burning Spirit Storm.”

“FOOL! You could have defeated me but now I have you! You see I know you fusions have a weakness, Time I will put you forward in time until the fusion dissolves!"

The Fusion becomes Goku, and Mirai again. Mirai, and Goku are knocked out by a power blast.

The Destroyer charges the robed ... thing as is thrown into a time portal. Damn it we need to distract the Trapper a little longer. Gwen jumps on robe boy, trying keep him from looking at Galen , and Bulma.

" Off me you little insect!" Trapper declares.

"I ain't the Wasp's kid pal!" She dodges a blast and fires an arrow at it' turned to dust before our eyes. "Bet you won't try to age me like you did Jason!" She sneers.

" What a good idea, Sparrow."

" That's Vendetta clown!" She tosses me in front of the blast turning me into my normal age.

" Prepare to have my mark burned into you!" I declare.

I fire a Kamehameha taking advantage of his surprise. I punch into the robe several times trying to hit something. Finally I hear a crack but I didn't see his body language cues, well I take that back I did they were all weird.
He slams me against the wall.

" Did you really think your pathetic powers , and martial arts would beat me?"

I smirk. When he notices his Citadel is attacking him. " Not really, I just needed to buy time for my Uncle and Grandmother to take over your little bachelor pad here."

The window that separated us from the entropy outside was opened. It started sucking at the Trapper. He just walked away from the force that was threatening to take the rest of us.

As I grab onto something and catch Grandma Bulma Aunt Steph, and Gwen the others use their powers to stay keep it from pulling them into nothing. We're all shocked By Aunt Vella screaming "You Bastard!" She's never cursed in all the years I've known her. Her ki was giving off weird signals mixing with the energy from her ring.

" You killed my Jason! Now you’ll pay! DIE!!!!!"

She blasted Time trapper with a combination of ki and Ring energy. it tore through him and all that was left was a robe that floated out into the destruction of all that is.

When his energy it hit the time stream it blasted us all back Galen gestures, and the Window closes, Grandma checks the machines, from there readouts the time stream has returned to where it was before trapper started manipulating it.

It looked like she was right, No world conquest, no Time Trapper hanging around Gotham. Aunt Justice, and Galen stayed together, but evil Mirai still attacked them the kids or Galen were wished back. There was one thing that puzzled me and grandma, Grandpa Vegeta kills Justice in a few years. Each time we try to stop it still happens.

We decide not to let Justice know about it. Galen makes some speech about how we all make our own history and blah blah. After changing history myself I know that's bull. Some things are just meant to be and you can't do a thing about it.

Oh well he goes back in time with Mirai to wake up teen age Justice, and our Justice vanishes. Vella Sighs. I already Lost Jason don't tell me I lost my best friend too."

" Nah she'll be there the new version of her will be in the time line." I reassure.

We return to our time , and I look around. New Gotham is still built up. Ah everything is back to the way it was I call mom to make sure Dad is still alive.

Yup good, but now this is new.

Huh there all over the city , and people are screaming when they see me. I go into my lair and think about stuff. I've learned how to fight from my parents learned about the DragonBalls from my Grandma Bulma I can't wish back Jason because he died of old age., but I learned some tricks from my Uncle Tim too.

" Alfred!" That's what I call my computer. "Here's a recording of Uncle Jason's memories, and his cell sample begin cloning."

" Should I age him to his forties again master Cain?" It asks.

"Nah. Aunt Vella may like him at his twenties Alf. Especially since she doesn't age. I'm going to check on Gwen she sounds like she's talking to herself. Keep me updated on the cloning process."

Epilogue 1

They thought they kill me. I'm the evil, in one man's soul, brought to life by a Red Lantern Ring. Justice will rue the day she was born. I will torture her through the timeline. Killing Galen, and their kids over, and over. Until finally Father kills her. Idiots they can't kill me I'm not alive.

Epilogue 2

I am The Time Trapper. They thought hey could destroy me. I am the living embodiment of entropy I will always return. Cain shall be punished by never gaining the trust heroes. Justice will be punished by having my protégé' continually after her. In the future she will be seen as worse than Hitler , and will die at her own grandfather's hands. Galen will die over and until I personally take his tech from his cold dead corpse.

All of them others' lives will end in tragedy If I can't erase them from Time I will corrupt all that they stand for. I am the Time Trapper, And I deserve more than I have I've been given.

Mark of Cain: One Year Later.

2008-06-07T20:47:00.000-07:00

Everyone thanks I should be worried about Vendetta. I know she's acted pretty badly, but she’s more normal now I can sense her mind mending. Though she still really doesn't like Justice or Galen. She says her mental problems mean “I don't have to pretend I like them."

Not sure if she means that or not. We look over the Citadel of the Trapper. Diagram we got from Bart's connections to the Legion of Superheroes. Galen asks “Are you sure these plans are up to Date?"

"No, but words like 'date' is meaningless to the Trapper." I state." Whatever it's time to put an end to this. We can plan as much as we can. But in the end we can only what we can I don't plan on sitting on my hands and waiting for my whole life to unravel."

“He patted my shoulder.” I didn't mean for you to do that I meant what I meant was we need to know as much of our enemy as possible."

“Kind of hard when what we know of the enemy is myth and legend." I sigh.

“Has the person you asked to help us answered?” He questions.

“Yes I have the ace in the hole he was easier to recruit than others, but he'd never give up on a friend I should have known."

I give a good little speech to the troops. Then Aunt Steph confronts me. “You are not taking Gwen with you!"

She gets in her mother's face. “Where he goes I go!"

“Baby you're not well." Steph pleads.

“So what? Being crazy can help us. But you can come along if ya want a little mother daughter bonding."

Then the hairs on the back on neck move. “Hello mother."

“Hey son." She acts happy not something she usually is with me.

“What do you want? To lecture me on how I'm doing evil again?" I accuse. She laughs. “No, you’re finally um... acting like he way you were raised. I dislike... you killing... but to save lives I um understand it."

She does something odd her arms come out of the shadows where she's hiding. And she ... hugs me." Um Mom this is a little embarrassing."

“Shut up little boy." She laughs. “Do me one favor..."

“What’s that?" I wonder what she's up to.

“Be good." I roll my eyes, but she's already sneaking off.

We all enter grandma Bulma's Time ship looking at her is so odd, She looks younger than she should be, in fact so do my mother , and Aunt Steph. What is going on here?

“Next stop the end of time!" Grandma jokes.

Outside the Citadel, a bunch of soldiers swarm us I tell Vendetta. “Okay babe no Ki moves let's save our energy for the main event."

“Yeah and I'm still going to show I'm better than your slutty aunt Justice by killing more of them than she does. “She grins. Maniacally. Sigh I should have waited until I changed time to attempt to wish back Gwen, She most likely have been normal when the new time stream came up.

Oh well I empty my bullets in to soldiers. The Flashes, and every one else battle as well as I know they can, But our “Ace in the hole" is eager to enter the battle. But he'll wait until he's called.

Finally I take out my sword and chop down the resistance after I get hurt but I'm okay. I kick down the door. and am greeted by this.

“Dad!" Justice shouts.

“Mirai!" Vampi smiles.

"That's not him." I growl.

“Observant at least you'll know who actually killed you."

Looks like we're one step closer to the main event.

Galen and Justice suck

2008-06-03T19:52:00.000-07:00

I can't believe this. No I can believe a horrible alternate present created by bad guy time travelers I've seen all kinds of crazy shit, from growing up with my mom Steph Brown AKA Spoiler. No what I don't believe is Brucie's reverence to that waste of space Justice.

All growing up she said “Oh it's my destiny to save the people of my space sector blah blah, blah, Yeah she failed. Oh she beat the Corru, and started up her own government and all that, then she left them to go off with creepy bald dude, and had Goofy little bastard kids, did you see that movie with the creepy kids and the mind powers? Village of the Damned? Yeah I think that's it those kids were just like that.

Back to point after she left it worked okay for a while until they all started fighting each other. And they all died for nothing. What did she do to save them? Not a damn thing but sitting on her big ass. Yeah I said it. I ain't taking it back either.

You know this new time line worked out well, no Justice, no Galen, We could have made something gout of this or beat the Trapper. Without undoing those parts but nooooo. Bruce had to save her and now he insists Galen is the only way to stop the Trapper. Come on.

I talked to his Grandma, Bulma. “You know Grandma. Know we don't need Galen Bruce Wayne cracked the Techno mage crap long ago. "

Bulma rolls her eyes, “Gwen Bruce Wayne is only smart enough to not know how dumb he really is. When I was a teenager I chased giant marbles that called up a magic wish granting dragon, and my daughter has a ring that does anything she wants I've studied both for years and just discovered there's a lot I don't know. Besides Bruce thought he could beat Superman too, why do you think he's walking on a cane now?"

“You don't mean..."

“Yup Supes proved him wrong."

“I don't care what my grandma in law says. That badly trained dork girl with powers getting her man back isn't worth Vella possibly dying. Vella who was ever since I was two taught me Ki moves, and was my favorite well Aunt since mom always insisted that I call Vincent and Cass Uncle , and Aunt, which kind of makes what happened with me and Bruce kind of weird. I think that's why mom had problems with it.

Though to me Bruce Cain was just a guy we're not related. While I my mind was racing through this stuff Justice comes up to me. “Gwen what’s your problem with me and Galen?"

“Back off badly trained girl, I can kill you with one hand tied behind my back."

She laughs, “Spoiler’s daughter is talking like this to me?” I clench my fist. "And Spoiler's daughter is going to kick your out of shape ass. If you don't walk away now."

She takes out Stormcutter, and acts like she's going to teach me a lesson. I kick it out of hand nearly breaking her wrist. Then I put my crossbow in her face aimed at her eye. " Vella is worth ten of you, you failure, and Bruce is just as much the two of them could die so you can get your freak magician back."

Stormcutter flies at me I put a ki field around my foot and kick it away it goes for that Cami girl who was trying to sneak behind me and stabs her shoulder. Vampirella was going after me until that happened then she tended to her sister."

Justice tried to use that distraction but all she got was my hand her throat. “I should kill you right now. Also don't think of it Bart, my trigger finger is itchy. If you super speed at me I'll shoot her. Don't know what you’re worried about she ain't giving none anymore anyway."

“We’re Just friends “Justice coughs.

“Please you don't get it do you? Guys and girls can't be friends he wants in your pants again, you’re so dumb the world is better off without you."

“Gwen we can be wished back!" Bruce yells.

“Maybe if Trapper hasn't taken the D-balls already."

Vella puts her hand on my shoulder. “It’s our choice hon."

So I let Useless go. “The only reason you’re not dead is I'm friends with Steph." Justice threatens.

“Keep telling yourself that. Maybe some day you'll believe it." So Vella nearly kills herself powering the machine and Bruce jumps into the portal and actually makes it.

Through our connection I see him knock down several security guards until he finds Galen, and Shiara, I don't get to see what they say because Trapper's minions attack us, I start killing them while Justice fought, lamely. Man I think Yamcha fights better. And I kicked his ass when I was 12.

I thought about letting the cyber ninja that was sneaking up on her take her out but Bruce would be a bitch to live with if I did that, I shrug and kill it with my crossbow, other things going after her a good old Kamehameha stops. Feh! What a loser.

Bruce jumps through the portal and there's this crappy little love scene between ugly Galen and stupid Justice. “Well at least it ain't as creepy now , maybe you should actually stay here Galen in the present Galen your relation ship ain't half as creepy, no just bad genetics together." I smile at least it makes them stop kissing.

“Who is that?" Galen asks.

“Spoiler’s daughter Gwen seems she grew up with a chip on her shoulder."

“And you grew up with out a clue." I shoot back.

Bruce Rolls his eyes “Vendetta stop it!"

“I’m not one of your assassins Bruce." I smile. “If you think I'm bad maybe you should spank me?"

“You are so embarrassing Gwen." He mutters.

“So Brain what are going to tonight?" I joke.

“Next we take the fight to the trapper." He says without humor. One of these days one of these days s I'm going to get him to crack a smile without being naked.

Gathering an army.

2008-05-31T18:59:00.000-07:00

Sometime in the near future...

Time Trapper has screwed up my world, there's no way I’m taking this lying down. Seems now instead of Black Zero ruling the world it's now Doc Doom. He's unraveling all of my work.

I need an army first is to claim the one of my birth right, the League of Assassins. But first I've decided to meet with the current leader Damian Wayne. We meet at the Batcave. And of course Grandpa is there.

“What do you want CAIN?"

“Nice to see you too Grandpa." I snort.

Another voice demands “You do not call him that Cassandra Cain is not his daughter!"

I smirk. “Hello Damien. Remember what happened last time you told mom that? Besides you only want to say that because if your affair with Dick Grayson's daughter Night star." I still remember when I was a kid and caught the two of them gross.

“Fine what do you want Cain?" He rubs his arm, remembering mom twisting it.

“I want my faction of the LOA Uncle. As is my right."

“Fine. They have been troublesome anyway waiting for your return is this all?"

“For now." I smile. “See you next family reunion."

All of the sudden “Grandpa speaks up.” Bruce whatever you are planning Cassandra wouldn't approve."

“I know, and I've accepted it." I answer.

I get others like Uncle Jason Todd, I avoid the other Robins. I call my cousins Son Vegeta, and Son Bardock, neither accept since they are fighting a war with Grandpa Vegeta.

I next went to Aunt Vampi apparently Trapper wiped Mirai from her timeline, after a certain point. “I’ll join you Cain, If only to find out what the Trapper did to Mirai, but there's someone else who will want to help my daughter Justice."

“I thought she was in the Corru Sector." I ask.

“No. She's been in a sleeping beauty spell for years, and since Galen Vanished, and without him no one can wake her up."

I grin "Maybe, maybe not. Let me find someone."

I fly until I find uncle Thaddeus The Reverse Flash, also my dad's best friend.

“Hey kid! What's up?" Uncle Reverse Flash grins.

“Well Uncle Thad I need a favor."

“Anything for you kid." He laughs.

“Can you help me find Bart Allen?"

His eyes go wide. "Fine Though I don't wanna talk to the idiot but Vincent owes me one."

“No he doesn't I do."

“We find Bart at the Hall of Justice. My ki sense have always had troubles with Flashes, I think it's something to do with the Speed Force. That and Bat's and Thad's Ki are very similar.

We're confronted by Green Arrow Aka Connor Hawke he always had a thing for my mother. And never liked me besides the Arrows, and The LOA always had problems. “What do you two psychos want?"

“I’m a foundin' member of Team Legacy moron I ain't no psycho."

Uncle Conner Kent gets in between us. “Connor let them in I'm curious as to what they want."

“But Superman..."

“Arrow!" he shouts. "Do you want me to bring in Nightwing?"

“No." Arrow looks at me. “Your mom should have picked me." He says in body language.

I laugh. At that after I explain what’s what to Uncle Superman. He lets us in to see Bart he's not to happy to see Thaddeus.

“I have nothing to say to you, who’s this saiyan guy?"

“I’m Cassandra Cain's Son, Bruce."

" OHWOWYOURESOBIGMANWHENDIDCASSHAVEYOU?AWWIMISSED
YOUWHENYOUWHEREABABY!WHO'SYOURDADDY? WAITISITTHATVINCENTGUY?"

Whoa speed talk." Yes I'm Vincent's son too. I was going to ask you help my Aunt well technically she's my cousin."

“Yeah?" Who's that?" He asks.

“Justice Briefs."

A blur of red and yellow flashes in front of us then he's the Flash.

“Come on Come on! Let's go!"

Seems while I was gone Vampi recruited uncle HS. Man he’s a lot bigger than last time I saw him as a teenager.

“You look more like Vincent everyday." He grins. “So we're here. What's the plan?"

"I've tried to Galen’s Universe." I explain. “There’s something blocking it portal, we need Galen since he has experience with Shadow Tech."

Gwen snorts. “We don't need that perv." I give her a look. “Oh come on it was so obvious Galen and Justice were banging."

Bart shouts "what?"

“Never mind Bart. You and Thad go and get Aunt Justice, Vampi will tell you were she is. Me I'm getting a spaceship. I need to find Grandma Bulma. The rest of you wait at this address it’s a safe house the Bats use when they need it."

I had to go and steal a spaceship at a local Space port, but finally I find my way in into the Saiyan Empire. I land on the capital planet, before I can get to the Castle; I'm jumped by a guy that looks like my Uncle Mirai.

“You little idiot you really thought you'd beat the Time Trapper. He sent me to finish you!"

“You’re that Lantern Construct that thinks it’s my Uncle! Die” I try everything I know I hit him several times with lethal force it does nothing something's protecting him.

He knocks me down and is about to kill me, when a Green creature slams into him and Aunt Vella Goes after him. “Leave my nephew alone freak!"

“Vella do you think you're will is stronger than the power of the Time Trapper?"

She smirks. “I’m a saiyan I don't just need my will, but I'm not the little girl you fought last time!"

I don't know Vella May have a shot but if I remember something from Jon the Interglactic Gladiator's kid's show it's that bad guys keep imoprtant devices in thier belts. I throw a shuriken, and it breaks this device on his belt, “You fool! I'll be thrown back into the fourth dimension arrrgh!"

Aunt Vella looks at me after the construct vanishes." I'm sorry Vella but I need to see grandmother."

She grins wide. “No need for that Bruce your family you are always welcome here, Dad has said that many times lets go see mom."

Some black haired kid about a year old runs up k well more waddles to Vella and clamps on to her leg.

"Who's that?" I question.

"This is Todd, Todd meet your cousin Bruce."

"Todd?" You know now that I look at the kid he looks somewhat like Jason with a tail. But I forget about that, I have to steel myself for seeing poor Grandma. A brain in a jar.

“Hey Mom! Guess who's here?" Vella excitedly shouts.

Then I'm shocked as I behold.

“Hey son, what can I do for you?"

I just stare at Grandma Time really has changed.

"Bruce? Something wrong Bruce?"

Sleeping Beauty

2008-05-22T10:46:00.000-07:00

Continued from here, here and here...

Justice and I had went to Hectis... We encountered a strange creature. With Justice powers, she was able to subdue him and learned he was being used...

The Corru had it's family. Shiara and I accompanied Justice...

The Corru was seriously over confidant and we were able to help P'tka and his family.

Seeing Justice on Hectis boosted the rebels self esteem.

I was sitting on a beach with Justice in my arms when I received and urgent message... It was the Excalibur, they were broadcasting hazardously in any way they could. It would seem Capitan Gideon was desperate to contact me. It also seemed that the ship and mission were in danger.

"Justice, I have to go.." I whispered...
She nodded, "I know I saw it in your eyes..."

We traveled on my ship back to Vampi's mansion... I carried Justice asleep past the labyrinth below Vampi's mansion. I laid Justice in the center of the Labyrinth, what was the fighting room normally used by Vampi and Mirai..

I casted a spell... The Sleeping Beauty spell... Justice would remain asleep until she is awaken by a kiss... A garden of thorny roses filled the labyrinth and seal Justice in...

Vampi looked at me and I smiled, "She will sleep and no one can get to her. If by any chance someone does they will not be able to awake her. Only.."

"the kiss of one's true love, I know the story Galen." Vampi stated...

I smiled, "Well a person can actually have several true loves. Only someone Justice loves and cares about and feels the same for her can break the spell... If someone enters the Labyrinth and she doesn't love him and he doesn't love her, Justice will vanish when they get close and be relocated somewhere else in the Labyrinth. There will also be holo demons protecting her. This way I do not have to worry about her, while I am gone. If evil Mirai comes after her he will not be able to find her."

As much as I wanted to I could not kiss Justice goodbye, I would have to save it when I returned.

Shiara and I left for my time and Universe...

"Galen The Excalibur." Shiara announced.

I entered and saw my old friend sitting going over scouting reports...

I clapped my hands and rubbed them together, smiling to hide my confusion, "So what is the emergency?"

"Galen what are you talking about?" Matthew queried

My face fell in a grimace, "You sent a distress call.."

"I did?" The was quickly becoming frustrating, "Galen I don't know who pulled one on you but... I sent no distress call.."

Something in my gut was telling me this was bad... Very bad...

"Matthew I must go.." I said turning on my heels quickly

"Go? you just got here." I heard him call out to me and them sigh, "technomages.."

I and Shiara boarded my ship quickly... "Galen what is wrong?"

I said nothing... I flew at fast speed and attempted to return to the Universe and time where Justice is...

I fell back...

"Galen?" Shiara asked again...

I tried again to reenter and then hung my head, "We can not return to the other Universe and time... Something very strong and very powerful... Definitely Shadow tech is blocking our access."

Shiara cried, "HS"

I returned to the Excalibur and tried to find away to by pass the technology the Trapper is using... I fear Justice is in grave danger...

So this is the Time Trapper.

2008-05-20T19:37:00.000-07:00

Arkham Asylum: The near future.

They expected me to come in blasting, like my grandfather the king of all saiyans Vegeta. They forgot I'm not only the son of Vince Briefs, but also I'm the son of the second Batgirl Cassandra Cain. While I have saiyan blood I have even more assassin blood. I sneak through the Asylum knocking out the regular guard staff, they are not at fault. They are doing a good thing here keeping in the insane freaks my uncle the New Batman captures.

I wonder if Terry knows he's carrying the Wayne blood in him. Man I can't wait to tell Damien. Yes I leave the guards alive but anyone I find wearing the Time Trapper's symbol I slit their throats.

That's what you get for kidnapping my Vendetta. I finally find the main computer. It's pretty easy to hack. Now where is she? I look up Vendetta, Okay they don't use codenames to id their prisoners. Okay let's try her real name Gwyneth Brown.

Nothing... odd I try the last name Drake on a hunch. Nope damn where do they have her? Then I slap my forehead of course Gwyneth Cain-Briefs. Yes that got a hit, the profile says: AKA Gwen Cain, former SHIELD Agent, former member of the New Young Justice, Former member of Justice League Task force. Now member of LOA. Yes that's her.

I don't even need to read the rest about her family tree I know them all ... Someone thought it would be funny to put her in cell 666, I bet because of the Cain name. I pick the lock.

She looks up "Uhhnnh, now the drugs they're giving me are making me hallucinate."

"No it's me Gwen it's Bruce."

After I take her out of the straight jacket she hits me. “What the hell took you so long?"

“I didn't know they took you." I shrug.

“A likely story you probably found someone else."

I roll my eyes. “What is it with you Browns and low self esteem crossed with paranoia?"

“We’re around you Cains, so freaking good at fighting it's ridiculous."

We kiss." Let's get out of here." I growl.

“Yes I missed you too Bruce. I love you as well... Why yes I can't wait to get you alone."

“Quiet!" I grunt.

“Oh please I've been doing this stuff longer than you Bruce." She gripes. The whole way she nags me. Why did I want a mate again? I get out side, and we get a few miles away from Arkham when a laser blasts at us.

“Hello little brother."

“Oh Crap!" I shout. You know that old saying the sins of the father are visited on the son? Well you see when Dad Was a teenager Mom and another Cass Cain, well they ...um this is so disgusting. Took turns with dad.

And apparently Alternate Cass Cain has no Nightwing, or he doesn't give those long and kind of creepy sex talks because Stacey Cain was the result of that. We first met in a multiverse fighting tournament, after she learned of mine and Barb's existence she wanted nothing else but to kill us. (Oh another odd fact every other child of any other Cassandra Cain in the Multiverse is a girl I don't know why it just is. Well the ones I saw anyway. They were a little freaked out about my existence. )

She's always been better at martial arts than me I would beat her with blasts. I can tell by her body language she thinks it's going to be the same way, wait until she sees what I learned from David Cain, and Lady Shiva in the past.

Gwen did something odd, She got into a stance and stated yelling " KA ME HA..."

Where the hell did she learn that? “No! This is between us, one day you'll have to tell me where you learned ki moves."

“Your Aunt." Gwen smiles. "You'd better win Bruce."

Stacey smiles confidently until I punch her in the face too fast for her to respond.
She's taken aback but tries to feint me, we went move for move until I caught her with a knee to the gut. She growls “No flying? No blasts what afraid?"

She was trying to distract me so she can surprise me with her Bo staff. I block it with the adamantium sword Trunks gave me as a kid. After a few shots I cut the staff, she tries to fight me with both sticks I slash her leg when she tries it.

“No... You can't have gotten that much better! It's impossible."

“I went into the past and got some training from my grandparents maybe you've heard of them? David Cain And Sandra Woo San. Oh yeah I also got some tips from a guy named Richard Dragon. The LOA gave me a nick name back then, Tell me if you've heard it I'm no longer the skinny kid you used to bully I'm now the One Who Is All."

She screams “No! That is my title!" She turns Super Saiyan 4. Weird that she can't fly or fire blasts but she can turn SS, It's like learning to run before you can walk. She runs at me and gets a kick in her leg.

She keeps trying for me I chop block her leg when she falls I grab onto the leg and pull her leg out of its socket. “I’ve won and it was easy! Surrender!"

She spits at me. “You learned some new tricks brother but I will die before I surrender to you."

I smirk “You’re just mad that I was planned and you’re the result of a defective condom."

She tries to open hand strike my throat. I grab her hand and break her wrist. " You I know this may not be your fault, I suspect Grandma Bulma once had the theory that kids made form parents of two different realties end up insane Poor Justice and Galen's kids or us with Cain blood are just doomed. Whatever you've scarred me every time we fought so now I'll scar you."

I put my hand over her face and burn in the Mark of Cain "You've lost. Live with the shock let it fester inside silently I don't kill family so you get to breathe but you'll always have my mark and know you were spared by the One Who Is All."

That felt good. As I fly my Gwen toward home a weird flash stops us. I land and this robed figure, asks “What do you want?"

The Hell? "And who are you supposed to be the president of the Galen fan club?"

“I am the Time Trapper, and you will speak to me with respect!"

I laugh. “Yes and I'm the Easter Bunny..."

“No you are Bruce Cain Briefs. Once and future leader of the League of Assassins. The founder of the Children of Cain, You will live several lifetimes and never age your children will not be so lucky since they will have too much human DNA."

“You know Trapper you've screwed with me and taken my mate I think I should kill you."

He gestures at me and I feel a Techno magic blast knocks me back. It reminds me of when I was a kid and would bounce around Aunt Justice's living room and Uncle Galen would give me a techno magic swat to get me to shut up.

“Yes you recognize the power don't you?" The Trapper says I realize I can't read his body language his not a techno mage then my mind goes over what Galen said about shadow... they alwys ask... “What do you want?"

I never thought I'd actually meet one. “Cain join me and all you can ever want will be yours, or be like your uncle Mirai and become trapped at the End of time like him.”

“What are you planning?" I ask.

“You broke time and ushered in all these changes, Earth should have been conquered, you stopped that from happening Galen was supposed to die you stopped that. The teen Titans were supposed to become monsters you stopped that. I'm going to put that back the way it was supposed to go, I'm going to end the age of heroes long before it leads to the Legion of Superheroes. You can join me or you can be erased from history time traveler."

“Go screw yourself." I respond.

“The dye is cast Cain you shall be destroyed with the rest. But first just know I will erase Galen from Justice's timeline I have already gave a call to him that the Excalibur is in danger when he returns to his reality he will find he can't return to yours. This is a favor to my servant the Evil Mirai I don't need to do this her legacy will be cast as one of the greatest villains in history. Soon all heroes will be seen that way. Prepare Cain your world will soon unravel."

"Okay that's weird Bruce." Gwen states as the Trapper vanishes. “What do you want to do now?"

“A storm is coming." I state. “We gather an army."

The Shadow Trapper

2008-05-15T02:33:00.000-07:00

“Indeed." A small grin comes to my lips as I allow my tech to become empower and prepare to use the spell of destruction, "Fool! My hands are no longer tied. I may have held back to protect Justice from being emotionally hurt by me harming her father but you.. You are an Imposture and now you will pay greatly."

Stormcutter flies before me and Mirai yells, "No! Don't use that spell.. Hurt him, defeat him but do not kill him. I do not have time to explain."

"Very well, I spat! But you would be surprised what the body can actually live through. Even a half Sayian body!"

---

I fought beside Justice's true father and together we were weakening this impostor, I tried to restrain myself but this impostor Mirai kept taunting me... Then he throws a dead infant at my feet. "I cut this out of Justice..." He laughs as I stared down in horror.

This life that had not been given a chance, he had my eyes from the cornor of my eye I saw Mirai eyes widen as he sees his potential grandson murdered.... "Forgive me Mirai but this man can not be allowed to continue!"

"YES GALEN! DO IT! Give into Chaos!" the evil Mirai laughed again... As the spell build around him I watched and saw him standing there unaffected. Then he opened a portal near him and sliped the spell of destruction off and reflected it to ... Oh my god.. it was Justice pregnant in another dimension...

I watched in horror as my spell of destruction destroyed her... Only once I had seen this happen.. I crumbled falling to my knees as I remembered that horrible day...

I went after the technomages who were responsible for killing Isabel, betraying my order and who had joined the shadows.

I had the circle's blessing but I was going for revenge... I killed Tilar and then Elizar's sister Razeel. I was inside Z'ha'dum, home world of the Shadows and surrounded by Shadows.. I had discovered the horrible truth of how our tech was made...

When I used the Spell of destruction on him Elizar, he slipped it off and redirected it to others around him... He said the Shadows had taught him how... It was the only counter-defense against the spell of destruction.

"Get up! Galen use it!" Mirai , Justice's father was yelling at me...

This time when I looked at the impostor I saw it... I saw it on Morden. When a Shadow has you, you are their puppet and there is always a string. The string that had given this evil Mirai power was coming from the trapper... I nodded in the direction and good Mirai looked...

"That must be the time trapper!" He says

I look and in my head I hear a scream and see...

"He's a shadow!" I yell

"Actually I am many thing in many different times. In your verse I took the form of a shadow, no... the Shadow.. the one that started the war with the Vorlons. The one that was the embodiment of Choas." the Time trapper declared... "Even the other Shadows didn't understand me, I was ... different."

"Destroy them and bring me the tech of the technomage!" He roared just as another scream filled our ears..

Overhead a shadow vessel appeared from a portal and the time trapper disappeared into it and then flew away...

"Are you ready to die!" Mirai impostor smirks... I smirk back, "NO but I am ready to end this!"

I channel all my power to Mirai, Justice's father.. together with Stormcutter and his sayian abilities... He should have the power to defeat the impostor.. I just have to keep channeling my power to him and transferring his injuries to me...

This will make him virtually immortal and could kill me... but for Justice, I would gladly die...

Getting back in the game

2008-05-08T18:38:00.000-07:00

Damn it after grandpa, and his kid Terry took me down I was captured by some evil looking version of my uncle Mirai, and a bunch of goons that that said they were working with the Time Trapper.

Now that's a name I haven't heard since I was a teenager, He's supposed to kind of a boogey man for Time travelers. I had no idea the guy was real. Or maybe he's not. It could be some loon taking the name.

Next thing I know I'm awake in a room decorated with West City Warriors memorabilia. Ever had Deja Vu? Yeah this is what I had here. I put my self on guard I have no weapons and have no idea where I am.

I walk out and see this in the hall.

Weird a picture of my mom and dad at about twentyish. Probably right before Mom had Barbra. Okay someone here knows who my parents are I sense a ki and follow it I look outside the window and see a bunch of people training in martial arts, Cain Style. Of course they're not as good as me or my sister who've been training since we could walk, but still not bad.

Well that and me and sis was trained in Vegeta and Goku's styles. I stop contemplating this and go towards the ki I sensed. I'm shocked by what I see

“Hello Son."

"Mom? You're young? How? "

A voice behind me laughs. “Don’t ask her that. She won't tell you though I think that Pervert Master Roshi gave her whatever it is that keeps him alive, and that had better be all he gave her."

I turn and well it's weird seeing your dead father okay I saw him as a teenager not long ago but still as a grown man as I remembered him as a kid. I just stared slack jawed. “Hey Brat! Let’s see if you're still as good as last time I saw you Final Blast!"

“Final what now?" It doesn't matter I'm hit with it and knocked through a wall. I block a punch going for my face, His body language says another blast is coming instead he kneed me in the gut the hell he faked me out? “If I told you once Bruce I've told you a million times don't just trust body language cues.”

I start getting the better of him when I'm blindsided by Barbra. “Freak!" She shouts “You trapped me in damn Tele-Tubbie Universe get up and take your beating!"

Mom yells “Stop it! We get together for the first time in a while and you start fighting... Vincent you encourage them!"

Dad laughs. “You married a half saiyan babe."

Mom Rolls her eyes. "I wonder what Connor Hawke is doing?"

“That’s not even funny Cass."

Looks like I changed time... alot Dad's alive... Mom's got some kind of karate school going, and well some things never change both my parents are better at beating up people than cooking, We all ended up getting take out. I sat out and stared at a Gorham that's nothing like the one I grew up in. I did it! I changed things for the better.

“We need to talk." Babs growled.

“What now?" I grunt.

“You changed time I hope your proud of yourself."

“Look how happy mom is. I’d say giving her the man she loved back is the best Mother's Day present hell she doesn't even remember he died."

“Bruce you can't just do things impulsively like that, you released the Time Trapper by basically breaking time now he's trying to manipulate it the way he wants. And worse he has a new disciple an evil version of our uncle Mirai."

“How did that happen?" I ask.

“Seems dad made him when he had a red Lantern Ring He has a mad on for Aunt Justice an, and Uncle Galen."

I shrug. "Uncle Galen can take care of himself."

"Oh yeah check this out." Babs puts a little holographic emitter in my face and shows what looks like Mirai, Mirai, and Galen fighting. All the sudden I see Galen freak out and unleash the Spell of Destruction and the evil Mirai Just stands in it laughing.

“Babs! That can't be I mean that would kill him. What the Hell?"

“Well that's what the time trapper can do he somehow deflected off of Dark Mirai or something I don't know but it looks like those rumors about the Trapper being the living embodiment of Entropy are correct."

“Maybe, maybe not but well if I'm responsible for letting him out I'm putting back where he came from!" I declare.

“Bruce you can't even put a scratch on his servant, much less him."

I smile “I’m the One who is all I can do anything."

“Sigh. Well if you want to kill yourself go for it, and after you fail I'll get the JLA to help take him down."

I offer her my hand we can take him together the Cain siblings fighting side by side once again."

“No Bruce you kill without mercy. I can't be a part of the blood bath you're going to start. I really shouldn't tell you what I'm about too but god help me... "

I give her a look. '"What? What shouldn't you tell me?"

“Trapper got Gwen or as she likes to be called now Vendetta, she's in Arkham Asylum.

“She’s alive I didn't wipe her out of time." I smile. “Tell Mom and Dad next time they see me, to leave room for Gwen at the table."

I fly toward Gotham with a smirk, “Don’t worry Gwenie I’m coming for you." I couldn’t help but here my sister whisper that I was flying to my death. "Yeah that's what she thinks.

There is no greater power than the power of love

Justice has been in a lot of pain. I have become weakened with the constant feeding her organelles from my own body and using my powers to heal ... Or to try to heal...

Justice ran away and I panicked...

Luckily I traced the bracelet I gave her.

I found her with someone named Joe Fix-it.

I haven't been able to figure out why I thought I saw Isabel when I looked at one of Justice's souls, but it doesn't matter.

Joe Fix-it left for some mission and returned later that day, well actually it was night.

Justice was resting and I had my hands on her back feeding her organelles as I gave her a massage.

I hear a commotion past the door. I know it has to be Justice's Dad.

This is certainly not a good time, like someone who has lost a lot of blood I am weak, but since when do these things happen at a good time.

I cast a shield around Justice and turn as Mirai enters.

He laughs as I stand between him and Justice, "Please I’ve killed you twice already. And one of those times I slaughtered your children in front of you. The power Time Trapper has given me makes me more than a techno mage can even hope to defeat.“

I refuse to believe him and attack him. I could end this quickly by just casting the Spell of Destruction but then I would hurt Justice.

I can not destroy her father in front of her... but I can not allow him to harm her either...

If he did do the things he said then they were in alternate Universes where I had not learn the Spell of Destruction or had freed my tech.

For I know I would have used the spell before allowing him to murder my children.

However with my weakened state I am unable to fight him as I would... I fall to my knees in pain.

As he spits blood from his mouth I hear Justice crying out to her father and him say horrid things to her.

Then he dared spoke of Isabel and that Justice has Isabel's soul. My tech starts burning wanting to use my most powerful spells and the spell of destruction. I become fevered from its powering up and sweat pours down my face. The air encircling me heats up but I stifle it. I can not use the spell of destruction, I must control my rage.

Suddenly I think I am seeing double...
“Get up magician!" good Mirai yells

I yell back, “I am not a magician! I'm a technomage!"

“Potahto, potAto." He smirks “You want to prove your worth to me as a suitor for my little princess? Then get on your feet and fight besides me help me protect her and I'll accept you." He challenges

I stand to face the imposture whom laughs “You two idiots? I'll tear you to pieces!"

“Hmph." Miari responds, “Your new power maybe able to defeat one of us but I truly doubt you can stop both of us." Mirai sends Justice away. I hear her voice in my head that she is with her mother, who was waiting for her and preparing to what is necessary to protect her.

He smirks at me, "Ready?"

“Yes." I say grinding my teeth Mirai has untied my hands. Justice is not here and this imposture will get what he deserves for hurting her.

“Let’s kick his ass." He commands

“Indeed." A small grin comes to my lips as I allow my tech to become empower and prepare to use the spell of destruction, "Fool! My hands are no longer tied. I may have held back to protect Justice from being emotionally hurt by me harming her father but you.. You are an Imposture and now you will pay greatly."

Stormcutter flies before me and Mirai yells, "No! Don't use that spell.. Hurt him, defeat him but do not kill him. I do not have time to explain."

"Very well, I spat! But you would be surprised what the body can actually live through. Even a half Sayian body!"

A ghost from my past

2008-05-04T09:29:00.000-07:00

I thought I was doing right by Justice by leaving. I thought I was protecting her...

The Excalibur as always was glad to see me... Though my mind was elsewhere...

I was being summoned to return... I had given Vella a special candle.

Something inside me said Justice had been hurt and hurt badly...

So I rushed to see Justice... I walked in to a room and asked HS to stand a side...

I couldn't believe what I was seeing... Justice was pale and a fractured wisp...

She cried in pain and looked like someone who had a terminal disease that had finally won over its victim.

I whisper ever so gently in her ear, "I am sorry, I should never have left."

I listened to Bulma's explanation of what was happening.... Using my Tech I looked at the souls of Justice that floated around the room. These were only the few that had found their way back.

Many were still lost not sure how to integrate back into Justice.
This is when I saw her.. Her but how.. it couldn't be...

My, "Isabel..."

I suddenly became aware that everyone was staring at me... I straightened up and lifted Justice from her bed, "If time and rest is what she needs then that is what she will get.."

I carried her home to the penthouse where she was staying and where I could care for her...

I could only watch as she painfully laid there... I sent my organelles to her hoping they could help with her healing...

How could I see my love as a soul which belong to Justice.... I didn't get to speak with her perhaps I was imagining it...

Seeing her brought back memories and feelings of lost...

"Galen," I was drawn back from my thoughts by Justice...

I stroked her hair, "I am here."

She cuddled closer and sobbed, "Father hates me... "

It was all she said... "Justice as soon as you are well enough and strong enough I will take you away from here." I held her in my arms...

A warning Omen...

2008-04-29T00:12:00.000-07:00

While in a meeting with Tony Stark about Sky, Jason Todd calls... After he finishes telling Stark he is back in SHIELD, he asks to speak to me and tells me that Justice was attacked...
I rushed to return to Justice....

After seeing that she was okay she tells me of the Sayian tradition that Vella had reminded her of. I could see as she spoke, she was afraid that Mirai would kill me. I tell her not to worry and we go to sleep...

[Galen gets up in the mourning and prepares breakfast for Justice and himself. A shadow is cast over the plate... "My father wants to speak with you," The voice of one Cabain bellows, "You are to fight Mirai for Justice."

"You can return to King Vegeta and tell him I will not." Galen states, "I will not hurt Justice and if we fight that is exactly what will happen."

Cabain walks closer, "You will or Justice will be executed as will you..." Cabain then explains Sayian Law...

Galen sits troubled seeing no solution... Justice had mention this Law when telling him of the tradition...

"It would seem I have no choice but I will agree on one condition. Justice is under no circumstance to be involved or to know... Not now not ever! If I die, she is never to know how.. Shiara will tell her I died while in my Universe." Galen voice becomes emotionless...

Cabain contacts the King and tells him.. It is agreed...

Galen appears before King Vegeta and Mirai with Cabain... King vegeta orders that the fight begins....

Miria attacks Galen and Galen uses a shield to defend himself but doesn't fight back...

"Fight me you coward!" Mirai yells...

Galen shakes his head as he is being beaten, "No it will hurt Justice if I did anything that would harm or worse kill you!"

Mirai shows Galen no mercy, in a blind rage he continues to beat on Galen... Sending Galen into walls with powerful blasts. The organelles in Galen's body work overtime to repair what it can but the injuries are too many...

Mirai draws a sword, one that is not Stormcutter and pierces Galen in the shoulder...

No matter how much it hurts or how much he has been beaten, Galen doesn't stay down. He continues to rise and face Mirai and takes more of what this half Sayian is dishing out..

Finally Mirai draws his sword again and intends to drive a fatal blow into Galen..

As he thrusts the sword, Mirai's eyes widen. Galen screams "NOOOO" Miria sees Justice between Galen and his sword he goes to pull it from her and she grabs it and says, "no finish what you have started Sayian warrior... "

Justice uses her hands to pull her self further on the blade of Mirai's sword. Blood splatters more on his face and body and behind on Galen's who has fallen to his knees.

Justice speaks with pain as tears of blood trickle down her face, "I never stopped loving you, how could I, you are my daddy.. Even when you yelled, even when you called me a whore and said you didnt care if I live or die..."

Mirai goes to let go of the sword and she grabs his hand pulling the sword deeper into her as the blood spills over his hands and the hilt is pressed hard against her stomach.

Justice continues, "I love you even though you no longer love me..."

She lets go of his hands and he pulls the sword causing blood to splatter more as she falls in Galen's hands Mirai stares at his own red covered hands

Galen falls over her lifeless body...

Vegeta commands Cabain to give them a seed but it doesnt work..

Galen and Justice die....

Mirai wakes from a cold sweat and looks at Stormcutter which is glowing at him.... Elsewhere.....]

I woke from what seemed like a nightmare only to see a sword glowing at the foot of my bed which then disappears...

I know now that if I stay with Justice I will be the cause of her death at the hands of her father...
The sword of Mirai is trying to warn us both...

I kiss her gently and then get dress... I approach the door of Jason where I know Vella is staying as well... I knock softly...

She opens the door, "If I stay, Justice will be hurt by her father. I can't allow that. Please tell her I will return when her father is ready to accept us... Here is a candle, if you need me, if something happens... you or Jason can light it and I will come.."

I then return to my Universe...
[not long after Galen leaves a new menace enters the picture...]

The Capulets and the Montagues

2008-04-24T05:49:00.000-07:00

Cont from here, here , here and here
After my trial I went to the Crime Alley Bar and had several drinks. It wasn't until Justice showed up I realized I had mis-placed my oxy pills.

Justice had one of her growth spurts when I while I was away. Now before me was a beautiful woman of 18.

She was so stunning she was drawing attention from every bloke in the place...

She and I talked as I have always found it is easy to listen to her, something in her voice is soothing but it is just as easy to talk to her...

The last thing I remember was getting in her new car and then stirring a wake.. I heard a voice but hadn't quite made it out yet but the first sensation I felt was the warmth of a body lying next to me.

It brought back memories of when Isabel had laid next to me...

I rolled over and with a glowed Justice smiled, "Good Mourning.. Vella I need to go."

She set the phone down.

She told me nothing had happened that I had passed out...

When she had whispered in my ear I felt my heart flutter the way it had once did ... I caressed her hair and called up a magical spell that would please her.

I pulled her to me kissing her and feeling her warm body pressed up against me... I slide her under me as I positioned myself above her -- kissing and caressing her ... As I kissed down her neck she gave a giggle and I could feel my heart do flips...

The next thing I knew I was staring in the face of an angry father.

“If you try a spell Stormcutter is going strike you down you old pervert! How long have you been planning this? Eh? Did you touch her before? Give me one reason why I shouldn't send you to whatever after life you believe in." He spat...

I wasn't about to do anything that could lethally kill Justice's father right in front of her so I made my retreat...

I used my techomancy and disappeared.

I sat on my ship with my head in my hands... What had I done?

I remember that young Boy and something he said about my future..

So I went to look for him, I first went to HS who was at the lake with Shiara... "HS do you know where I might find.. What was his name... Thadeus ."

"Inertia? No not really.." HS said scratching his head. Shiara then smiled, "Ask Vincent or Cass."

Finding the one they call Batgirl and her boyfriend Vincent, Justice's uncle I posed my question...
Cass was studying me... So I used my skills as a Technomage to prevent her from reading my body language.

"Maybe you should ask where Justice is!" Vincent snapped bitterly and Cass took his hand...

My eyes widen, "Why? what has happened.."

She turned to Vincent, "Now ... I .. can .... read him... but.. only his feelings for her... It's..true love.."

She pulled him closer to her and I shifted uncomfortably... "Please what has happened to Justice?"

"She moved out and Mirai disowned her. Last I heard he cut her off without a penny and she was living in a slum..." Vincent stated...

I left with Haste... I found it unbelievable they would allow this. If the Corru found Justice...

My concerns became worse when I found the apartment in Gotham.

I couldn't believe this was where she had ended up... This was no place for any human let alone ..her.

I got to the apartment and it was empty... No one knew where she was and I felt this panic.
Then a man who was addicted to a terrible 20th century drug said he saw a man flying in a red and gold tin can...

I used my techomancy to rid him of the drug and to expel his addiction to it.. "Thank you.. Now take this token and show it to the church in the center. They will help you."

I then flew to Shield's command office.. Tony Stark walked in looking frustrated, "Just the man I wanted to see."

He blinked as I emerged from the shadows and continued to speak, "Where is she?"

"She?" he blinked again... "You're the strange cloak man that gave Fury the info on Sky, right? um Galen."

I spoke pronouncing each word sharply, "Where! is! She! A man addicted to a solid, smokable form of benzoylmethyl ecgonine said he saw you."

He raised an eyebrow, "A crackhead said... Aw ... Bald and Viagra I get it.."

"Excuse me?" I was becoming enraged, "I will ask you one last time, Where is Justice!"

he smiled oddly and stated, "Don't get your cloak in a bunch. She is safe Iarranged for her to stay at the Gotham Heights Apartment Suites. It is cleaner and safer.."

As soon as he said the names I used my magic to see if she was there while he continued to speak, " it wasnt to nice of a place for .."

She was there, I sighed with relief... "for a princess no.. She belongs somewhere nice beautiful and safe where she can be happy... you have my thanks.. How much do I owe you?"

he cocked his head to the side... began to speak and then seem to choose against it..

"How long can she stay there? I can pay the expenses I just need for her to be somewhere safe and... guarded, " I gestured at a bunch of SHIELD agents out on the field, "only while I find Mr Thadeus."

He cocked his head again and smiled, "sounds like you are asking me for a favor."

I pressed my lips tightly together and then turned away, "I would sell my soul to the devil for her... "

"Yes I believe you would but be careful Mr D may hear you and from what I hear he is running around again.."

I turned sharply to him,"As you know she a target.."

"the Corru... but this doesn't explain why you have to see Inertia.." He offered me a cigar and I declined...

"Personal reasons... " I sighed, "He told me something once and I need to know more of what he thinks he knows since bits and bobbins are unraveling now in the present."

I turned away, "but first I will go see Justice."

"How old are you?" he asks

I turn back saying, "32"

"want some advice, Stay clear of Agent Briefs." He says just before vanishing in the shadows..

Two Batmen

2008-04-19T19:23:00.000-07:00

I returned from Galen's trial to my Universe. Now To try and remember what was supposed to happen soon, oh yeah grandpa will soon discover that Aunt Spoiler had killed Black Mask again.

Okay, you know I've always had a theory that would at least get the bat family off her back. Not that I care about Black Mask all that much. I mean he tortured aunt Steph while making her go into sexual positions.

If anyone deserved to die a second time, it would have been that bastard. Then again I've never understood the bat side of my family's aversion to killing. Some people just need it.

Mom was so angry and disappointed when I crushed the Joker at 13. And Grandpa Bruce shunned me. While Grandpa Vegeta had a good laugh about it. Uncle Jason was mad that he didn't get to do it.

Any way enough reminiscing time to see if my theory is correct. You see I've never thought Question's idea was correct that the Dragonballs bring back an evil person with a good person. I fly over to the Gotham Morgue , and find the body of Black Mask. Heh. They thought someone dug up his body, and shot him in the fore head. The autopsy said he was dead for at least a year and was rotting, a zombie. Well well you can't kill what's already dead. But something surprised me and made a cold shiver go down my spine.

It said among the things he was wearing was a black ring. Oh Hell, I was expecting a zombie but not... Wait I just need to find the ring first. I hack the computer and find the evidence locker. My fears are founded when I see the ring.

A Black Lantern Ring. If Mask didn't think small and only wanted to be a crime lord, he would have smoked Aunt Steph, and Uncle Jason. The power this thing holds...

I'm about to get to a computer and maybe warn Steph about what's coming when a red and black Batarang shatters the computer. Damn it! It's Bat boy from my time again.

“I told you not to come after me again if Grandpa wants to talk to me he can do it himself." I challenge.

He smiles. “I did bring him."

I feel his ki coming towards me when I look up in the direction of it instead of seeing a broken down old man I see...

Great just great.
