Titans
Chapter 8- All hell breaks loose- Part 1
LexCorp-
"I'm sorry Lex, I really am, but he got away!" Mercy said.
"I'll let it go, but you better know what he wants with the boy!" Lex said.
"That I did find out, he's still in love with Nightwing, and it would seem that Nightwing is in love with you little boy toy!" Mercy said with a smirk.
"So it's just a simple matter of jealousy. Hmm, we can use this to our advantage." Lex said out loud, but really speaking to himself.
"How's that, I don't understand?" Mercy asked.
"All in due time, we have a visitor. Now make yourself useful, tonight the Watchtower is ours." Lex said with a smile on his face.
(A knock on the door.)
"Come in!" Lex called.
"Hello Lex, sorry to bother you, but we need to talk." I said walking in.
"Grant, it's a pleasure to see you, you're never a bother." Lex said.
"Lex, I need to talk to you, its very important." I said my nerves on end.
"You can talk to me about anything, please have a seat, and make yourself comfortable." Lex said.
"Lex, I want to call the whole thing off, I know you've done so much to help me, but I was wrong. Everything is wrong with what I wanted to do, it came from a place of rage, but after some soul searching, and a profound experience, I realized what I really want. I found my path in life, the future. I have my whole life ahead of me, and I want to live it, experience it in everyway possible. I'm sorry for wasting your time; you truly were the only one that understood what I was going through. I'll never be able to thank you for that, but I'm sorry I can't go through with what we planned." I said, trying to be adorable as possible to earn brownie points.
"Ha, ha, ha, oh Grant, I'm glad you've come to your senses, you've made the right choice. Just like I knew you would, you are a bright young man. I was hoping you would eventually see the road you were heading down, and finally see the error of your ways." he said happily.
"You mean, you knew all along I would back out...I mean you wanted me to back out?" I asked confused.
"But of course, I told you, I like you a lot, and only want the best for you. I told you I see us doing great things together, and how could we do that, if we were behind bars. Of course I knew you would come to your senses, you are your parent's child after all." he said.
"Then, why, why did you act as if you were going to help me?" I asked.
"Grant, you saved my life, and I told you, I don't like being indebted to anyone. However something changed, after being around you, I found myself thinking about you all the time. Your unselfishness, your bravery, your innocence. It made me want to help you in anyway I could, become friends, and still do great things together." he explained.
"Ok, I can understand that much, but what are these great things we can do together?" I asked.
"So many things, the world is suffering hard times, as you very well know. It's time for a change, time for the youth of America, and the older to come together and make a change in the world. Creating jobs, homes for the homeless, and so much more. It's time LexCorp makes a difference in the world. I want you by my side, as I began to help change the world, make it better, stronger.
I'm going to share something with you that I've never told anyone, I plan to run for President. Yes, I, Lex Luthor, President of the United States. Imagine the possibilities; we can change the world, a new revolution, bringing in hope to everyone.
That's what I want your help with, that's what I think together we can achieve this and so much more." he said excitedly.
"Lex, I don't know what to say...I'm...I'm honored you'd even think of me. It's funny I was just told I should be in public relations, just yesterday. I love it, and I think you would make an amazing President.
I love it, and I would love to help, anything you want, anything I can do, count me in." I said excitedly.
"I knew I could count on you Grant, and I told you, we will do great things together you and I." he said.
"Thanks Lex, that means a lot, and I look forward to working with you, in a positive way. I really have to get going though, sneaking out and all that jazz." I said getting up.
"Your almost 18, soon your going to have to make a choice, keep our relationship a secret, or be your own man. You'll be off to collage soon, and ready to live your own life, making your choices, doing what you think is best for you. Grant, it's time to man up, you're not a kid, it's time to take the bull by the horns and live your life as you see fit." Lex said.
"I know, your right, and now I have the chance to do all those things. Let me just finish high school, I only have a month left. Once again, thanks for everything Lex." I said starting to walk towards the door, but he stopped me, standing in front of me.
"Just one kiss goodbye, for now anyway." he said, like before, I didn't want to burn any bridges, so I allowed him to.
As he kissed me, he wrapped his hand around my neck pulling me tightly to him. I felt something, like an electric current run through my brain, it was the oddest sensation.
"Wow that was some kiss." He said.
"I'll say, I had the strangest sensation. I'll see you later Lex." I said, feeling a little confused.
"Oh, Grant, don't go out the front door, and fly out the window." he said.
"Yes Lex, fly out the window." Before I knew what I was doing, I was crashing through the window, and flying home. The whole way wondering what possessed me to fly out the window like that.
The Batcave-
"So it's begun, just like you said Grant would make the right choice, but of course Lex would have a plan B." Batman said.
"I want to crush him with my bare hands, pulverize him with my heat vision." Superman said angrily.
"Easy Boy Scout, everything is under control, we were expecting this. Lex thought he removed all the Bat bugs; the only thing he was counting on was Oracle. She hacked her way into his systems, we know he still plans to use Grant, and we know how, he's using Grods mind control device. Now all we have to do is get everyone ready, tonight Lex is going after the Watchtower. Will be ready, and will put a stop to him once and for all." Batman said.
"But playing on an innocent boy, could he sink any lower. Grant is clueless to all of this, and no less a danger to members of the JLA. Lex has been dampening Grants powers, which mean we have no idea what he's truly capable of, he could kill someone, and when he snaps out of it, it will kill him to know what he's done, even if it was Lex who was controlling him.
We should stop him, before he even gets Grant to break into the Watchtower!" Superman said.
"Clark, I know you're worried for him, but stopping Lex now, would only postpone his plan. He still has the Ray Gun that can kill you, and Grant, and he still has the means to the portal. We have to let this play out, we need to get the Ray Gun, and destroy once and for all, and stop that Portal from opening. Everyone is in on the plan; everyone is ready for what's going down tonight." Batman tried to reassure him.
"And what happens if Grant is the one that gets hurt in all of this, then what, I don't want to lose him Bruce, he's a part of me, made from my blood." Superman said emotionally.
"Clark, I know, and I won't let anything happen to him, everyone has their orders." Batman explained.
"What about Arsenal, he's loose cannon, and he's out there, gunning for Grant, he could ruin everything?" Superman asked.
"Dick's got that covered, we just follow the plan, and everything should work out perfectly. Trust me old friend, we're all ready." Batman said.
"I hope your right, because I swear Bruce, I don't know what I'll do to Lex, if anything happens to Grant." Superman said.
Gotham City-
Nightwing was beating Arsenal to a bloody pulp, trying to stop him.
"Will you just stop fighting me, and hear me out?" Nightwing asked.
"So you can tell me more lies, cover up your little robbing the cradle?" Arsenal said.
"You know me better than that; you don't understand what's going on here, or what's at stake. You need to calm down and listen to what I have to say." Nightwing said, holding Arsenal down.
"Fine, you have two minutes, speak!" he said.
"Lex Luthor is using one of Gorilla Grod's mind control devices on Grant; he's planning on using him to destroy the Watchtower. Grant has no idea what's being done to him, so it isn't what you think. Grant is innocent, and you're blinded by your own rage, for a love for me that died out a long time ago." Dick said heatedly.
"Am I suppose to believe you, you'd say anything to be with that little slut. That kid will hurt you, and you're the blind one here, you can't see what's happening right in front of your own face." Arsenal said.
<Nightwing to Batman, I'm getting no where with Arsenal, and we haven't got time for this. One for transport on my position.> Dick said.
"You wouldn't, Dick don't do this!" Arsenal shouted, as he was teleported to the Watchtower.
<Thanks Bats, but he's going to be even angrier when he gets out of there.> Dick said.
<Sucks to be you doesn't it. We'll deal with him later, right now, you've got to get back to Grant, and Lex has activated the mind control device. It's time Dick, and please, be careful, remember, it's not Grant, its Lex controlling Grant. You can't fall for any of his tricks.> Batman said.
<I just wish you would tell me the full plan; I hate being left in the dark. But I know you wont, good luck. Nightwing out> Dick said.
Oh Grant, I hope this works; I couldn't bare it if anything happens to you.
Titans Tower-
I flew in through my window, without anyone noticing. I suddenly felt free, like it was all over. Closer, that's the best world to describe it, Closer...
A new day, it's a new dawn, it's a new day for me, and I'm feeling Gooood!
(Knock at the door)
"Come in!" I shouted.
"Hey there Grant, what are you up to?" Dick asked.
"Just enjoying the moment, you know how it is!" I said.
"Enjoying the moment? Tell me about it stud!" he asked.
"I've got chills, there multiplying, and I'm losing control, cause the power, your supplying, It's Electrifying!" I sang.
"Ha, ha, ha, I didn't know you could sing, now really tell Me." he begged.
"Dick, I'm free, I feel alive, it's like it's the first day of the rest of my life, and I couldn't be happier. Everything is possible now, anything, and everything.
I want to go to school, yes Harvard, and I want to train to be a crime fighter. I want it all, love, life, and happiness, everything my parents wanted for me. It's all possible now, I can do anything, the world is my playground, and I want to see it all, and do it all. I'm finally free of the past, and able to make my own future, to become anyone I want to be." I rambled.
"Wow, I'm so proud of you, this is fantastic, this...this is amazing.
"Dick, let go fly, I want to be free, and I want you with me. I want to soar so high, I want to feel the wind rushing past us, just like the mood I'm in, I want you to feel it." I said excitedly.
"I've got a great idea then, I was heading to my apartment anyway, and I have to restock my utility belt anyway. Come, let's fly little birdie." he said.
We soared through the sky, holding hands, each taking glances at one another. The huge smile never leaving my face, which causes him to stay smiling. It was a perfect moment, to a profound day.
Dick's Apartment-
"Wow that was an unbelievable, thank you for sharing that with me." Dick said.
"The pleasure was all mine, holding your hand wasn't so bad either, if I do say so myself." I said.
"Your still jailbait!" he said.
"28 day 16 hours 34 minutes and 12 seconds, and then you won't be able to say that anymore." I said coyly.
"Wow, down to the very second, someone wants it bad. Let me ask you a question, what happens after you start collage? I mean, Grant, collage is a whole new world, filled with a million different experiences, filled with lots of people. A million guys to meet, and get to know, and who knows, maybe even love." he said.
"What are you talking about, I'm already in love, and I've loved you since the moment I laid eyes on you. Dick I don't care about anyone else, it's just you, it's always been you. But you're such a scared little boy, trying to act like a man. You've been hurt, I get that, but that's in the past, this is the here and now, we have a chance a true happiness. I beg of you, stop beating yourself over the past, and look to a future of possibilities.
We can be great together, we fit perfectly together. You get me, I get you, and we fit, like the pot that found its cover. I want to be with you, I want you by my side, and I want to be together.
Now tell me, look in my eyes and tell me you don't want to be with me, tell me you don't love me? Tell you want me to leave, and never come back. Look me in the eye and say it, damn you, say it you bastard, be a man, and tell me the truth, no more games!" I shouted angrily.
"Grant, calm down, I wasn't trying to make you angry, I'm just trying to explain to you the options you'll have when you go to collage. I just don't want to hold you back, I don't want to be the reason you don't get to live a real life. A life that doesn't revolve around a crime fighter, that's gone half the time, only being able to sneak in and out whenever I can. Just think about what I'm saying to you, hear my words, not what you think I'm trying to say." he answered.
"Coward, that's what you are a Coward. You couldn't even say it; you can say you don't love me, that you don't want to be with me. I hate you Dick, I hate you so much right now, you played me, for the fool I am. Leading me on, letting me think it was all a matter of my birthday, when really you're just too much of a millionaire playboy, not wanting to be tied down, to me, or as you often say, a boy, a kid. We'll screw you Dick, I don't care, you wanted to play, you did, you wanted to break my heart, you did it, and you succeeded. Yay, for you, you made me follow you around like a little puppy, well, ruff, ruff...I'm tired of this game, you're so ready to get rid of me, then fine, I'm gone. Take a long hard look at my ass, because it's the last time you'll see it." I said angrily.
"Grant, stop, please, this is all wrong, you do not understand me. Please just listen to what I'm saying, Grant I beg of you." he begged.
"The hell with you, we have nothing left to say, it's done."
Suddenly something snapped in my head, and the next thing I knew I hit him sending him flying into the wall, knocking him out.
Batcave-
"Something is wrong; the receiver in his ear just broke." Batman said.
"Then what are we waiting for, let's get over there." Superman said.
"No, Bruce, not yet, we need to let this play out a little longer, just be ready." Batman said.
Dick's Apt.-
"You've been a very, very naughty boy. You really need to be spanked." I slowly take my whip and run it down the Nightwings back, stopping at his ass crack. Then I take and whip his ass really hard. I have him on all fours. His legs tied together and his hands.
"You need to be taught a lesson. And I'm going to be the head Master. Where to begin. Let's start with the pain threshold. Life is Pain! That you should get used to it. No matter what the enemy does to me, I should never let them see me sweat. No matter how painful, I should never scream. So tell me DICK! Will you scream when I do this?"
I reached down and grabbed him by the balls. I yanked them down hard. He arched his back. And I felt a rumbling in his chest. I knew he wanted to scream. I could feel it. I could see the sweat beads glistening on his forehead.
"Nothing. Hmm. I guess I'm going to have to get a little more creative. Hmm. I know, I have a great idea. Hold that thought. Don't go anywhere. Oh, that's right you're all tied up."
I walk into the bathroom and grab a bottle of rubbing alcohol. I walk over to him; grab him by the back of the head. I pull his hair back, forcing him to look into my eyes. I lean in and kiss his forehead, before I release him. I move over to his exposed ass. I slap it a few times really hard.
"Now lover this is going to hurt. I'm going to make your scream if it's the last thing I ever do."
I pore the bottle of over his ass. Turning my red hand marks redder. I grab the whip and begin a major attack on his ass. He thrashed his head back and forth. He began squirming all around.
"100 lashes and still not a peep out of you. Some grunts, a few moans, but no screaming. Impressive. Oh no, stupid me. How can I expect you to scream when your mouth is covered up? Here let me remove that duct tape."
I rip the tape off his mouth in one quick pull.
"Why are you doing this to me? I've welcomed you into my life. Into my heart. And this is how you repay me. You need help." Dick shouted.
"Why, you want to know why. You push and push and push me, till there was nothing left to push. Till I was completely broken, till there was nothing left of me? You said you wanted to make me stronger. Wanted to make me better. All you did was take away every part of me that was still good. You wanted to make me a man; well you've made me a monster instead. Now, now I'm going to punish you for everything you've done to me. I fell for you. I fell hard. I almost believed that you actually might love me back. That you actually wanted to be with me. Now, now I know the truth. You used me. You liked the control you had over me. I followed you like a dog. You said jump, and I said how high. Maybe it's because Batman was so hard on you. Maybe you're the broken one. He broke you and you need to break me to feel whole again. Well I have news for you, it all ends here. I'll never let you do this to anyone else. I'll be the last."
"Do you hear yourself? This isn't you. Grant. I do love you. I've shown you nothing but love. I let down all my walls with you. I've never done that with anyone else. I opened myself to you in everyway. You showed me everything I was missing out on in life. Are you trying to tell me all the love we've shared, all the words, everything we've been through, was a lie?" he demanded.
"Dick...I...NO! Don't do that. Don't try and trick me. I won't let you into my head. No more, you can't manipulate me anymore. I'm stronger now." I smacked him again and again.
"You can't trick me. You can't control me. I won't let you. You are going to pay."
I had beaten Dick to a bloody pulp. His eyes were black and blue. There was a gash above his left eye. His lip was busted and bleeding. His cheek was cut and bleeding as well. I grabbed a bottle of water and dumped it on his face. He started coughing and came back to consciousness.
"Finally! I thought you were never going to wake up."
"Grant. You have to stop this! I don't know what is making you do this, but I'm begging you, snap out of it." Dick begged.
"I have one chance to make things right. You took that away from me, and the only person that was willing to help me, you stopped. You took away everything from me. It's your entire fault. I have nothing left. Nothing. Now everyone knows about what I've done. What I wanted. All because of you. If you hadn't filled my head with all your lies...none of this would have happened. So you have no one to blame but your self."
Suddenly, something crashed through the window. I turned to look and it was Superman.
"Grant. What have you done?" Superman asked, staring in horror at the sight before him. He moved to release Nightwing, but I pulled out a piece of Kryptonite that Lex had given to me.
"Grant...no...what are you...doing?" Superman asked as he keeled over on the ground.
"You can't stop me. Dick has to pay for what he's done, and you. You helped him, you all helped him. I trusted all of you. But each one of you played with my mind. Each one of you toyed with me. I was a dumb, lost little boy, in a world of grown ups, who don't know their asses from the heads. You all filled my head with lies, tore my heart apart. Played on every emotion that I had. Everything I was going through. Now, I've out smarted you all. It's my turn to play with the lot of you. I've had help, help from people who were willing to be honest with me. Help from people that really cared about me. You call them your enemies. I call them my allies. After tonight I can finally have my revenge. And nothing, I mean nothing, and no one will get in my way.
"You forgot about me!"
I heard the voice. I knew who it was. I turned around. There was the Batman.
But I was waiting. I knew he would come. I was prepared.
Nightwing was still tied up, battered and bruised. Superman lay helpless on the floor, weakened by the Kryptonite.
I was face to face with the Batman.
As he slowly started to circle the room, talking to try and distract me.
"So this is how you treat the people who care for you? You torture and abuse them. The ones who have been fighting to protect you. Are you that weak? Are you that blind to what is really going on? You've been used, you're being used. You think Lex is your friend? Yes I know Lex is behind this. They don't call me the world's greatest detective for nothing. Lex has been using you from the start. He planned all of this, your parent's death, Prometheus. Using you to hurt your own brother! What's that look of shock?
You mean he didn't tell you that you're really a part of Superman? That you were created from his own blood? Here I thought he was your friend, my mistake. Gorilla Grod created a mind controlling device, Lex is using it against you. But your part Kryptonian, your mind works differently than ours. A part of you is fighting it; the other part is succumbing to it. You have to fight it, or I will have to put you down." Batman's voice was harsh.
"You're trying to trick me! Lex is my friend; he would never lie to me. Not like the rest of you. I have two parents. Superman has nothing to do with them. How can I be made from a part of him, how can he be my brother? That's just madness, and you're just stalling for time. But time is on my side." I said.
As Batman moved to jump at me, I pulled a remote control out of my pocket and pushed a button, freezing Batman in midair.
"Didn't see that one coming did you? It pays to have friends in high places." I said while walking back over to Dick.
"They ruined my plans for you. (Leaning into his ear and whispering) I was going to take that virgin ass of yours. I was going to rape you till you bled. I wanted to hear you scream like a little bitch. But it will just have to wait." I whispered.
"Grant! Listen to Batman, he's not lying." Dick begged.
"If he isn't lying, it's just one more reason to hate all of you. If you all knew Superman was my brother, why didn't you tell me?" I asked.
"Grant, there were so many things we didn't understand. So many things we were trying to figure out. You had lost so much already; we didn't want to tell you, only to find out Lex had been lying. Superman wanted to make sure before he said anything. We didn't want to hurt you." Dick pleaded.
"Didn't want to hurt me? That's all you've done, all the secrets, all the lies. If one of you would have been straight with me all along, none of this would have happened. If you would have let me kill Prometheus, none of this would have happened. He would have never taken me and done all those horrible things to me.
He almost killed me, and if it hadn't been for "Lex" I would be dead right now. I'm tired of explaining myself to any of you.
You all made your beds, now lie in them. I've done nothing but love all of you, done nothing but trust all of you, I thought you were my friends, people I could count on, but it was all a lie. I don't even know any of you, and I don't want to know I have a date with destiny. And now, with all of you out of the way, there will be no one to stop us. Time to welcome in a new order. Time for the true hero of this world to rule it." I explained.
My alarm started beeping on my watch. I checked the time.
"Right on schedule. Time to open a portal boys, I've got to go." I said.
"Grant, what portal? What are you doing?" Dick begged.
"You're not going anywhere, so there is no harm in telling you, I suppose. A portal to the Phantom Zone." I answered.
"Cough...Cough...No! Grant, Cough, Cough, you can't free him, I know now why Lex has been using you, Cough...Cough...You can't. He'll enslave the earth." Superman choked.
"Yes, it is General Zod that I'm about to free. He was wrongfully jailed by your father, and now I am going to free him. Don't worry Dick, I'll be back for you, I'm not done playing with you yet." I smiled.
"Grant no! Don't do this!" Dick shouted as I flew out the window.
Dick's POV-
"Grant no! Don't do this!" I shouted as he flew out the window.
I put my head down in defeat. But before I had time to think about it. Robin came flying threw the window.
"Robin! Am I glad to see you?" I shouted.
"I wasn't expecting to see all of you, Dick!" he said, checking out a naked me.
He removed the Kryptonite as he came over to free me from my confines. He pulled a remote out of his utility belt and pushed a button freeing Batman.
"You planned this all along Batman, didn't you?" I asked.
"Yes! I was hoping to find out Lex's real plans. Robin was waiting outside all this time. Donna and Wonder Girl are following Grant as we speak." Batman answered.
Robin grabbed a sheet off the bed and wrapped it around me.
"We have to get to him before he opens that portal. We can't allow Lex to free General Zod." Superman spoke urgently.
"How do we stop Lex's control over Grant?" I asked.
"Lex will have the device on him. We need to get it." Robin said.
"I've been working on a jamming device. I'm close to figuring out the frequency." Batman said confidently.
"Then what are we waiting for, let's get after him." I said.
"Dick, I think you should sit this one out. You've been beaten pretty badly." Superman said.
"No way! Grant needs me, and I want to be there when he snaps out of this. He's going to come apart, and I need to help him pick up the pieces." I said.
Come on Donna; find out where he is already.
The Watchtower-
I flew with super speed, feeling amazing at the fact that I could breath freely in outer space. I saw the huge Watchtower, and it was more amazing than I thought it could ever be. I wished I had taken the time to go there, and see it, because now I'm going to have to destroy it.
I spun like a drill, and made it through into the Watchtower.
<Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert! Perimeter Hall Breached! Commencing Actions 8.74! Please Evacuate Area 8!>
All around me metal walls started forming, sealing the hole I created breaking in. I walked straight up to the wall and began punching, until I broke through the wall.
When I walked through the hole in the wall, I wasn't really that shocked to find the next room filled with members of the JLA.
"Wow, a welcoming committee, I should feel honored, but something tells me you're here to stop me, more than welcome me. I should warn you all though, try and get in my way, and I truly will hurt you." I said putting my fists on my hips.
"Grant, we know why you're here, and we also know that your being controlled by Lex Luthor, but if you don't stand down, we will have to stop you." Wonder Woman said.
"This should be interesting!" I said taking a fighting stance.
"Grant, you have to try and listen to me, I mean really listen. Lex Luthor is using you, he's controlling your mind, you've got to try and fight it. Ask yourself is this what your parents would want? Would your parents want you to go up against their friends, hurt one of the people they fought side by side with, just to what, kill someone, and free a lunatic that would destroy the world?
Grant ask yourself, does this sound right to you? Or does it sound like something someone wants you to do?" Wonder Woman asked.
I felt a pain run through my head, as her words Echoed through me, I tried to fight to take back control of myself, but the pain seared through my mind like a tidal wave.
"Grant, fight it, remember who you are, don't let him control you!" Wonder Woman shouted.
I tried desperately to fight, but the pain was more than I could take, I was pulling so hard on my hair, feeling like I was going to keel over.
"That's it Grant, your doing it, keep fighting, remember who you are!" Wonder Woman said.
The pain became so intense, causing me to lose control of all reasoning, all thoughts but one.
KILL!
I roared a battle cry like no other, as I punched Wonder Woman, sending her flying through the crowd knocking everyone down in her way.
That's when all hell broke loose!
I began fighting all the Superheroes I'd heard about, not understanding how I was able to do it, only knowing the need in me to do so.
Lex had thought of everything, those with magic based powers were rendered useless, as the medallion I was wearing blocked out their powers.
"You hit my mother, I don't care what Superman said, your going down!" Wonder Boy said, as he sucker punched me through four walls.
"So you like to play rough! Kinky!" I said, as I flew straight at him, the collision caused a ripple effect sending a wave out, causing everything to shatter to pieces around us, and everyone that was following us was sent flying back, including us.
I stopped myself midair, as did he, I was suddenly feeling very aroused by this guy.
"You really know how to show a boy a good time. If I would have known fighting you would feel like this, I would have sought you out sooner." I said with a coy smile on my face.
"I've got more where that came from, so bring it on!" he said beckoning me over with his fingers.
"Oh, it's brought lover boy!" I said as I floated towards him, my eyes started to burn the closer I got, next thing I knew I was shooting off heat vision at him, he used his Bracelets to block all my shots.
"Sweet, and I didn't even know I could do that, I wonder what else I can do. I hope you don't mind if I use you, as a guinea pig!" I said, as I took a deep breath and blew him a kiss, as he tried with all his might to fly at me, I was freezing him in place.
As much fun as this was, I was here on a mission after all...
"My father was known to the World as Damage! Prometheus killed my parents, and I hold everyone in the JLA responsible for their deaths! Now it's time for me to take on the role of Damage, and destroy you all!" I shouted.
I had never felt the powers I had flowing through, the way they were now. It was as if someone had put me into overdrive, and the full flow of my powers where flowing through me.
I knew little of the way my fathers powers worked, I remember being talked to about them, but not much more. I knew he was able to release a form of energy that he would use internally causing him to become stronger, and that if he didn't internalize that power, he would be forced to expend it in a discharge, which is equivalent to an Atom Bomb.
I wasn't sure how to do this, but I was going to use the rage inside me to power me up.
I let it flow, as I pictured my father would, which only enraged me more, knowing he would never have the chance to show me how to use my powers.
My hands started to glow, a piercing orange color, the more I was angry, the brighter my hands glowed.
"Grant! Don't do this, you don't know what it means to kill someone. It will take something from you, far greater then the feeling of loss you feel for your parents.
Being an Amazon, I know that in battle you must always go for the kill, but your not in battle, and we are not your enemy.
I know what your about to do with your hands, I know how your father's powers worked.
Don't do this Grant, this isn't who you are, and I know your hurting, but you can't let Lex control, you don't want to kill anyone. Internalize your powers, don't let out a discharge, you'll kill everyone here." Wonder Woman said.
I stared at her for the longest time, or at least it felt like it. I'd heard so many stories about her, how powerful she was, her morals, values, and Ideals. All of that wrapped into a beautiful Amazonian Princess, her words tried to penetrate my heart, whether they were true or not, I felt nothing but rage.
I started laughing, the most evil vile laugh, I never knew I had.
"I don't know if your indestructible like Superman, but if you aren't, you might want to get out of here, cause Baby, I'm ready to BLOW!" I said, and then laughed again.
"Watchtower, emergency code, Alpha 007, Clearance Wonder Woman!" she said pushing a button on her ear.
She gave me a glare, that only a mother could, that only my mother should ever be able to look at me like that, but that would never happen again.
The whole room started shaking, as steel walls sealed me in the room. She said she knew how my fathers powers work...I wonder what emergency code they would have in place, if they already knew of my Dad's powers?
I guess I was about to find out, I held my hands out to the room and let my powers fly out. The walls started to glow the same color as my hands, as if in slow motion I watched the explosion happen.
Meanwhile-
Dick's apt. Dick's POV-
"What do you mean the transporters aren't working? Grant is up in the Watchtower, doing God knows what, we need to help him!" I shouted.
"I'm not waiting for a transport, I'm flying up there right now!" Superman said angrily.
"You may be able to do a lot of things, but breathing in space isn't one of them! Will you two slow down a second, I'm Batman, don't you think I've prepared for this?" Batman asked.
"Of course you have, silly me, and here I've been fretting over how we're going to save Grant from himself, and you still keeping secrets?" I asked sarcastically.
"I thought I was suppose to be the young one here." Robin mumbled to himself.
"No Dick I'm not keeping any secrets, but I do plan ahead. We knew where Grant was going, so in the event that he should get there before we got to him, I rigged the Bat Jet to fly in space." Batman said, as he pushed a button on his utility belt.
The Bat Jet appeared in the air, hovering next to my balcony. I wasn't sure if I wanted to kiss Batman, or hit him.
"Robin, I trust you can handle Gotham alone tonight?" Batman asked.
"Gotham? I'm going with you, Grant is my friend, he needs us." Robin protested.
"Robin, I'm sorry there isn't enough room for four of us. Plus someone needs to patrol, while I'm away. We'll keep in radio contact, I promise." Batman reassured him.
"Fine, just take care of Grant, and let him know I'm here for him." Robin said somberly.
We got into the Bat Jet, and Batman began to take off.
Just hang in there Grant, we're on our way, I'm on my way.
