Chapter 1: Secret Origins

(Author's note for lack of a better term this will be a mostly a retelling of the Justice League animated series pilot Secret Origins workings primarily from Batman's perspective, Also the bat suit that Bruce will be using from this Story will based on the suit he wears in the Arkham Knight which he starts wearing in this story right after J'onn disappeared, for those that are confused I will be doing a JL Origin series that will explain more about my take on the DCAU with the first chapter being on my take on Batman who had started at his crusade at 18 so Bruce birth year in this universe is 1989, which make the year 2014 that this story take's place)

The suits/armor of the JL founders

Batman the batsuit he is wearing is based on the armor he wore in the Arkham Knight.

Wonder woman her armor is based on the WW Odyssey armor with all the gold replaced with silver of her new 52 armor.

green lantern/John stewart his Green Lantern attire is based on his Injustice Gods Among Us attire from the game/comic series.

Superman he's wearing his new 52 armor.

Martian Manhunter/J'onn J'onzz is wearing his uniform that he wears in the young justice cartoon/mid-2000s comic.

The Flash is wearing his arrowverse suit with some elements from the comics that being he can hide the suit in a ring.

Hawkgirl She's wearing the armor that she wears in the arrowverse.

Year 7: Age 24-25

Bruce P.O.V

April 10th WT satellite communications facility

I'm made my way across the roof of the facility reaching one of the ceilings grates that I quickly removed and dropped down onto a support beam as I overlooked the control room I heard one of the Scientist talking to his coworkers, Reminding them that he was having a barbecue at his place this upcoming Saturday night and they were all invited. After the co-workers promised to be there he jokingly called them animals did the finger gun motion pointing at his co-workers and then exited. I continued to watch from my vantage point in the shadows above the three remaining scientists as far as I could tell nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

But then the scientist who balding start speaking in a language that definitely wasn't a known human language likely alien to his co-workers. That was when the scientist who appeared to be of Asian descent suddenly performed the feat of metahuman strength that he should not have been able to do, as he held the computer bank the final coworker who was of African American descent walked over and ripped the wall open with her bare hands revealing an alien looking device of some kind the female scientist grabbed it at the same time her co-worker slammed the computer Bank on the ground and the three started making their way towards the elevator.

I quickly activated my cowels detective vision to see if I could determine what the device was made of but as I look down at the scientists I realize they had no bone structure, normally I would at least get an x-ray of a skeleton silhouette when using detective vision it's only confirmed my suspicions that these scientists weren't human and we're here for some of its nefarious purpose, very likely here to sabotage the satellite dish. I exited the way I had entered into the control room quickly getting back to the roof. I noticed that the roof access door was open.

But I did not see the scientist anywhere which could only mean they'd already made it to the dish. pulling my grapple gun from my utility belt using its Propel myself to the top of the dish. But I got up there too late, They'd already placed the alien device on the center of a dish it somehow morph into a liquid and entered the dish, I revealed myself to to the scientist imposters with a one liner that probably would have made Nightwing cringe "I doubt that modifications legal" Using my bolas to ensnare balding scientist and one of Asian descent as well as landed on them knocking them to the ground and before me in front flip Landing between them and the final imposter cracking another bad one liner "Should have stuck to your desk jobs."

I lunged forward at the final imposter however, she was faster and dodging my attack with ease. I could barely avoid the punch at my head but then she nailed me in the gut grabbed me and through me over the other two imposters I did a mid-air somersault landing on my feet. As I stood back up the two imposters that I ensnared with my Bola freed themselves Furthering my suspicions that they weren't human. Female imposter charged at me I jumped backwards and throw Batarang that's nailed her in the head and bounced right off. The Imposter of Asian descent then charged and managed to shove me off acting quickly I fired my grapple quickly swinging back onto the satellite, that's when a good friend of mine made his appearance.

"Need a hand?" a voice I knew all too well asked I turned to face Superman who was floating above me and said "Thanks, I honestly could use some help right now." Superman responded with what I think was supposed to be a joke "They don't look so tough" "Famous Last Words Clark" I think to myself That's when the Imposter starts shouting at us In the alien language that I had heard earlier That's when they turned around and started making a break for it. Superman and I started to give chase but something happened that caused Superman to suddenly start Groaning in pain causing him to land the dish which prompted me to stop and turn around I'll start hearing a beeping sound which meant that device they planted was a bomb I helped Superman to his feet and rushed to the other side of the dish barely escaping the explosion.

We ended up sliding down the hill which work out in our favor because we were far enough back but close enough that we could still see the imposters This confirmed my suspicions that they weren't human, The Imposter of the Asian descent scientist arm was sticking through the balding imposter Chest. Female Imposter looked all disjointed but in a matter of seconds they fix themselves and disappeared Into the Woods.

I heard Superman grown as he regained consciousness I walked over and asked him what happened "What happened back there?" as I helped him up he answered my question "I don't know, I saw images, It was so intense and then well that's all I can remember." There's only one telepath I know who might try to reach out to Superman for help "Do you think it was J'onn?" I asked Superman give me a skeptic look and asked "what's going on?" Realizing I should have been formed him of the reason why Metropolis I started explaining what was going on "J'onn has been missing since april 7th. Before he disappeared called me about a case he want to discuss on the 10th on the rooftop of gcpd,when I arrive to meet up with him, Gordon informed me that J'onn had not been scene since he punched out on April 7th. So I went to investigate his apartment I found it ransacked, there was evidence of a fight but whoever the assailant Managed to kidnap J'onn, failed to find the flash drive J'onn had hid behind the false wall in his apartment." Superman raised an eyebrow then asked "what exactly was on the drive."

I continued explanation "I noticed there has been breaches in our global security network in the past few months, and the info J'onn left on his drive revealed he had came to the very same conclusion but I am, deep space monitoring stations across the globe were being sabotaged, It's the reason I was here tonight." Superman side then asked "Do you think this was J'onn was trying to warn us about".

"I do. I was hoping we'd have more time. the watchtower long-range deep-space scanners are still offline."as I reached into my utility belt and pulled out a com/earpiece handing it Superman. "The only watchtower system currently operational at the moment is the communication system this com will allow us to keep in contact." As I finished explaining what was going on Superman put the com into his ear and seid.

"Look I'd like to help look into this further. But I'm expected in New York City." I raised an eyebrow under my cowl and asked "are you receiving key to the city?" Superman chuckled at my comment but then answered "No I've been asked to attend a UN on the proposed plan to dismantle the world's nuclear Arsenal." I decide not to press Superman any further on it further on it and started summoning the Batwing to my location and told Superman" I still have the signal watch you gave me after our first team up. So I'll be sure to call if I need any more help." pulling my grapple gun from my utility belt and fired at the batwing and started flying to the Airfield just outside of metropolis.

April 15th Star Labs Warehouse/Rescuing J'onn from a compromise military base

I decided to say Metropolis few days to see if I can find any trace of satellite saboteur's. My investigation led me to the abandoned Star Labs warehouse I got into one of the windows landing on the upper work area that overlooks the main floor I walked over to the table and noticed an alien device similar to the one the imposters used five nights 's when I heard the door open and spotted two of the imposters/saboteur's From five days ago emerge From what was probably Foreman's office talking in the same alien language as before. The female impostor turn off the light and the two of them left out the front door.

Once they were gone I made my way over to the office opening the door and shining a light from a flashlight from my utility belt and looked around discovering Some kind of alien containers that looked to be housing the real scientist's I pulled out a Batarang for my utility belt and cut into the container freeing the balding scientist with a mustache I checked his pulse and discovered he was still alive, thankfully he groaned.

That's when I heard growling I turned shining my flashlight in the doorway, a dog came in and pounced on me with unnatural strength pushing me up against the wall as well as Trying to bite my face off. I managed to get my feet under the dog and kicked it off of me, it landed knocking over the desk which gave me enough time to get to my feet the dog charged that I managed to barely avoid by jumping up to ventilation pipe As I look down at the dog it started climbing up the wall and shape-shifting into an alien appearance, which I honestly should have seen it coming, the alien creature managed to overpower me sending me flying into A mass of shelf before I lost consciousness I managed to Activate the signal watch Superman gave me…

30 minutes later

As I was starting to stir from being knocked unconscious I could hear Superman shouting to someone "Medic he needs help!" so he was telling you to medical personnel "What happened?" by her tone of voice I could tell the paramedic was female. "I'm not sure." Superman's it simply before flying off I could feel the medic checking my pulse my eyes were open at that point and I could see her reaching for my cowl I lift my left hand up catching her by the wrist She gasps As I otter a pretty cool one liner "Don't even think about it." after letting go of her wrist I brought my other arm activating my gauntlet with computer. sending a command to the Batwing autopilot ordering it to fly to my location.

That's when I spotted Superman get blasted back by some kind of beam of energy and a thing that had sent him flying was on the move that's when I spotted the Batwing was right over my location I pulled my grapple gun for my utility belt and fired it just as the paramedic was saying to her partner "we better get out of here" I quickly got inside the bat wings cockpit And started flying towards what looked to be some sort of alien machine that was attacking the city.

I fired two missiles at it but they were ineffective I was forced to take evasive maneuvers has it started firing beams of energy at the Batwing That's when Superman flew in knocking it into the bridge and then proceeded trying to rip it open that of course failed because of the alien machine Fired a beam sending Clark flying into a building I flew in again firing two more missiles hoping to keep the thing occupied. But things only got worse two more alien machines emerge from the meteorit.

As I continue to engage the alien machine's Superman flew past me flying out of metropolis so I called him over the com I gave him "Where are you going?" I asked wondering why he would suddenly leave the fight. Superman responded instantly "I know where J'onn Is." As soon as the words left his mouth I realize what he meant so I pulled a quick maneuver with the Batwing flying off after Superman.

2 hours later

Superman and I arrived at a military base in the mountains several miles outside of metropolis. I took note that the bass look like It had been attacked several weeks ago without warning. I perceive it to land the Batwing and walked over to Superman. Who just made a hole in the wall of the base As we were making our way through I noticed one of the doors was ajar. so I quickly took a look inside and discover will look to be the entire base personnel in Alien containers like the ones I had to start at the Star Labs warehouse, I made my way back to Superman who was trying to Punches way through military-grade vault door and said, "We better get to J'onn fast this base is compromised." he nodded and proceeded to lift the bent nuclear blast door and toss it aside.

We proceed into a corridor lined with computer screens on the walls Medical readouts and vital signs of an alien prisoner, we reach the secondary security door that Superman pushed the door open sending it to the floor, As we entered the room we could see a Martian hooked up to some kind of machine Superman walked up to the control panel and turned it off Freeing the Martian Causing him to fall forward Superman caught him before he hit the floor and said "J'onn's been trying to reach out to me telepathically, But that stasis field interfered. When his message finally broke through, I came to rescue him."

"J'onn are you all right?" I asked, J'onn responded to my question telepathically "The Invasion. The Invaders got the drop on me, at my apartment and brought me here. To hold me captive until the Imperium arrives." After J'onn finish speaking in our minds he shape-shifted into the appearance he had when I first discovered he was a Martian masquerading as a human over Two years ago. Superman, J'onn and I made our way out of the base Superman started talking "We'll need to contact the joint chiefs right away." As we exited through the whole Superman had made in the wall As we were walking back towards the Batwing, Several spotlights turned on revealing the base personnel, The officer was shouting at us.

"Stop right there, Superman. You're trespassing in a restricted area. Our orders are to keep that freak here." Superman stepped in front of J'onn and said "Wait I'll vouch for him you must let us go." I started to prep a Batarang knowing full well from what I discovered that this place is compromised fake officer responded "I don't think so." Superman tried to plead with him "But the world's security may be at stake." That's when the fake military officer and Personnel reveal their true forms as he spoke "That's why he'll never leave here alive." shapeshifting into a white alien with three red eyes and grayish-black outlines/swirl's.

"It's them" J'onn said that's when the Invaders charge forward opening fire on the three of us Superman knocked J'onn and I Out of the way with a single Blast from there energy weapons sent Superman flying into a military transport truck that was on its side He collapsed to the ground groaning " Unh." I pulled an explosive battery for my belt and told J'onn "Stay down." As I threw my explosive to Batarang. It Explode sending several then flying back, As I was prepping another Explosive Batarang J'onn shouted "Behind you!" As he fazed through me Then materialized creating a shield around himself in order to Shield me from The Invader the come from behind and fired his rifle nailing J'onn in the chest causing him to groan and collapsed to the ground I quickly through the Batarang nailing the invader in the head knock him to the ground.

I checked on J'onn trying to help him up and asked "J'onn are you" as he groaned. I Lift his arm over my shoulder, that's when Superman flew over holding an upside down tank above his head " Get J'onn to safety I'll cover you." I didn't need to be told twice I walked J'onn over to the Batwing And placed him in the co-pilot seat and strapped him in, and then climbed into the my pilot seat closing the canopy and taking off.

I turned my head noticing J'onn was a wake and said "That was close." That's when I realized I spoke too soon as J'onn said "We're not out of the woods yet, look." That was when a bunch of alien Fighters crafts emerged from the mountains opening fire on the Batwing I had no choice but to perform some evasive maneuvers through the mountain range as the alien Fighters fired energy blasts At the Batwing. Superman flew in taking out one of Fighters But they were sent hurtling to the ground then one of the other Fighters turned around and fired a blast at him I continued to perform maneuvers through the mountain range Barely flying through a narrow Gap trying to get rid of our pursuers.

that's when the worst thing happen one of the alien Fighters took out the bat wings left wing I struggle to keep the Batwing in the air as we fell directly towards the ground That's when suddenly it was a green light surrounding around the Batwing "what happened" I asked J'onn Responded simply with "Help has arrived." that's when I looked up on the cliff and noticed one of the Green Lanterns had arrived to help That's when I also noticed Hawkgirl fly over head.

"Hawkgirl what's she doing here?" I asked hoping J'onn would answer my question that was when he phased out of the Batwing to join Green Lantern who placed my Batwing down on a cliff, Superman, and Hawkgirl In destroying the alien Fighters As I watched from the ground and nearly avoid getting crushed by one of the destroyed Fighters.

As I continue to watch from the ground someone I never seen before joined the fight. The armor she was wearing this very familiar to me. So I ran a quick cross reference using my left gauntlets link to the batcomputer and ran a quick cross reference on it The image that came up on my halo screen that only I could see showed a painting that was displayed at the old JSA headquarters in Gotham City, the difference being that the woman in the painting had blonde hair and her armor was had gold in a locations of the silver of on who I'm guessing is her successor and had what looked to be a skirt instead of the pants that her successor appear to be wearing, I checked the bio information and it referred to her as Wonder Woman/Hippolyta of themyscira I wonder if she has some relation to this mysterious woman that shown up to help.

That's when everyone started flying back where Lantern had placed my Batwing That's when I Noticed a blur of red and black running to my location shouting "Hey Bat's I think you dropped this." why J'onn decided to Involve The Flash/Barry Allen I have no idea. As he came to a stop in front of me. That's when Superman and the woman (I will refer to as Wonder Woman for now going off her armor) land in front of the Flash and I.

Of course Flash decided to ask the question to Wonder Woman was on everybody's mind As he handed me my bat wings missing wing "So where are you from?" She answered "Themyscira." which confirmed my suspicions but confused Flash. before I could tell him. Hawkgirl responded before me As she landed "The home of the Amazons I always thought it was merely Legend."

Wonder Woman responded by saying "I assure you, it's as real as the ground on which we stand. I am Diana, princess of the Amazons." I think I'll Start using her name now. As Diana went on to say "Themyscira is protected by the gods, But I could not idly stand by while the rest of the world was in danger." Superman took this moment to jump into the conversation "It was lucky you showed up when you did."

That's when J'onn spoke. "No, not luck I tell telepathically summoned them here." That's one flash jumped back into the conversation "Look, I'm usually pretty quick on the uptake, But would someone please tell me what the heck is going on here?"

"J'onn why don't you bring the four them up to speed, while Superman and I fix my Batwing." I said He nodded in agreement pulling the other aside using his telepathy showing them the flashback that he had shown Superman and I over two years ago.

45 minutes later

we finished the repairs just in time to hear J'onn finish his history lesson "I sealed up their citadel to keep them in a constant state of suspended animation. for over five hundred years, I stood guard over them. But then, two earth years ago while I was in a hibernation cycle, Astronauts from earth unsealed the stronghold and accidentally revived the invaders." That's when flash skeptically said "Wait those astronauts never said anything about finding life on mars."

That's one Green Lantern said "Some pencil pusher in Washington Probably decided it should be Classified information." J'onn then continued "With all of the Remaining Green-white Martians, safely hidden away, on Mars's moons The Invaders have nothing to feed on and if set their sights on Earth. somehow I managed to get to earth ahead of the invaders it is how I met Superman and Batman, and warned them of the coming invasion." that's when everyone looked at Superman and I.

So I entered the conversation "As J'onn said He had arrived on our two years ago and made contact with me and Superman, I was working closely with J'onn in preparation for this invasion, up until his disappearance eight days ago that's when I realized the sabotage to our deep space monitoring network could be coincidence. Sure enough, five days ago when I was investigating the deep space monitoring station just outside of Metropolis, Superman and I had a run-in with three of those advanced agents. J'onn had warned us about."

That's when Green Lantern said "We have to stop them before it's too late." J'onn gave Lantern a disheartened look and said "It may already be too late." That's when we all heard of mass of Thunderclap in the distance and Wonder Woman said, "What was that?" and J'onn answered "It has begun." "What are they doing?" Hawkgirl asked.

"The invaders are nocturnal they want to blot out the sun so they can live in perpetual darkness." J'onn said simply. Of course flash chose then to make a joke about me" friends of yours?" I gave him a well deserved bat-glare and said "It's no joke." That's when flash walked up to J'onn and said "What's the big problem, can't you just whip up another batch of that nerve gas?" J'onn shook his head and answered "Unfortunately, no the gas can only be made from a rare Martian plant the only sample I brought with me Is currently in Superman's Fortress of Solitude which will take time manufacturer time we do not have."

I decided then to step in and propose a plan to potentially stop this invasion "Since the nerve gas is a no-go we're going to have to split up into three teams, and try to dismantle the terraforming Plants the old fashioned way." as I bring up the locations we're the Invaders meteors had landed and started dividing everyone up into teams.

"Superman, and Hawkgirl head back to Metropolis and takeout the plant there. Green Lantern, and Flash's task will be to head for South America and take the Invaders plant in the rainforest. Diana, J'onn, and I will head for the Invaders plant Just outside of Cairo. Oh and before I forget."

I received my utility belt and pulled out five com's and handed them out to Green Lantern, flash, Hawkgirl, Wonder Woman, and J'onn and said "These com's will allow us to keep in contact there the Watchtower orbital station." once the coms handed out I walked back over to the Batwing and climbed in and took off for Egypt Diana and J'onn flying with me

I decided to send a coded message to Nightwing and the Titans telling them to do what they can to protect civilians from the Invaders. Afterwards I used the time flying to Egypt to get some shut-eye since it was going to take a few hours to get there from delaware.

April 16th attacking the Alien Invaders Factory in Egypt/reverse engineering the alien Tech

4 hours later (Since the Batwing use the same technology as the javelin it should take less time to get from Delaware to Cairo)

When we arrived in Cairo Egypt we could already see the Invaders plant had emerged bring you the Pyramids of Giza, I deployed from the Batwing. Landing behind some cover where Diana and I Waited for J'onn join us after informing us telepathically that he would Scout the area and see if he could find a way in.

"Hiding like cowards is not the Amazon way." Diana said with a bit of annoyance in her voice Trying to remain focused I responded back "These Invaders most have some form of weakness, when we find it, we'll strike." That's when J'onn Fazed up through the ground in front of us, and began speaking "I have scouted the outer walls. There are no openings."

"then we make our own." as she flew to attack one of the only machines. I Held my arm up to stop J'onn from joining her Saying "Wait let's see what she can do." Is J'onn and I watched Diana from the ground use her the lasso to tie up the legs of the machine causing it to topple over creating a hole in the factory wall and saying "there's your opening." I couldn't help but smile and say "Not bad." I took out my grapple and used it to launch myself into the hole Diana created with J'onn flying in right beside me.

When we arrived inside Diana was using her bracelets to deflect shots fired from the Invaders energy weapons but for some reason did decided to hightail it and run and oddly enough one of them deliberately tried to avoid walking in sunlight with Diana saying " they run like cowards what are you waiting for." as she started to give chase.

That's when I realized something as I look back at the Blue Sky above which made me wonder if the Invaders were deliberately blocking out the sunlight because they came from a world where the sun wasn't visible which is why they had to terraform the plant to make it more suitable for them I decided to ask J'onn there his telepathy of course, as we fought our way through the terraforming factory.

"J'onn Did the Invaders ever emerge from their Plants before Mars was completely covered in darkness?" His response was fast "No invaders never emerged from the terraforming Plants until after Mars was completely shrouded in darkness, why do you ask." I responded back At the same time punching an invader out of my way "I have a theory that these Invaders may have come from a world where no sunlight could penetrate."

The further we got in to the terraforming plant the more the Invaders continue to block our path Diana was the one to voice the very thing I was thinking "They've blocked us off again." I responded to her comment " It's almost as if they know what we're thinking." but I don't know how they would know what I'm thinking my cowels lined with Electronics which would make it difficult for them to read my mind.

I threw an explosive Batarang that exploded against a pillar which caused the Invaders to flee deeper into the factory I turned to look at J'onn and said "Any ideas, J'onn." that's When I noticed his eyes were glowing "J'onn!" I shouted That's when J'onn replied with the worst possible news.

"Superman and Hawkgirl are down, there have failed." "What are you sure?" Diane asked. J'onn nodded and said " I can sense it, This way hurry" as he started running down the corridor and Diane and I followed suit we reach the area where flight was required which was simple for J'onn and Diana I had to pull up my grapple to reach the doorway above.

I ran down the corridor while J'onn and Diana flew we came to a stop in a large open area. Diana looks back to make sure we weren't followed and she said "We lost them." "For the moment." I replied as I activated my gauntlets shock capability. "Look." Diana and I walked over to see what J'onn was looking at.

"It's the central core." After looking at the core for a moment I turned and asked "How can we shut it down." J'onn Pointed and said "The ion matrix crystal If we can remove that, we'll shut down the whole Terraforming plant, I will need a diversion." I nodded and said "You've got it." As I pulled the Batarang from my utility belt and through it cut through some sort of pipe Dropping some sort of fluid on the Alien Invaders working at the console. Diana did the same ripping what I assumed was a pipe close by releasing some of that strange gas on the Invaders.

This created the perfect diversion allowing for J'onn to slip past the Invaders while Diana and I engage the other Invaders to keep them busy. J'onn managed to successfully Remove the ion matrix but he was then shot by one of the Invaders sending him and the ion Matrix falling to the ground. Diana seeing what happened floor to help him I realized we need to leave so I shouted it to her "Get him out of here." As I continue to fight off Invaders.

As we were trying to retreat I grabbed the Ion Matrix this however slowed me down because by the time I reached the exit the door had sealed I turned to look behind me noting I was surrounded. So I tried reaching out to J'onn "J'onn is there a way that you can mentally shield me, make the Invaders think they killed me?" His response was fast "Yes." I dropped the Ion Matrix and said in my mind "Do it." Just as the Invaders open fire I managed to dodge out of the way grabbing the ion Matrix I Stood Still For a Moment looking at the Invaders this confirmed this J'onn mental Shield was working. It took some time but I managed to find my own way out of the plants I made my way back to the Batwing Once I was Airborne I called Lucius Fox Activating the back wings Halo com.

"Lucius there something I need your help with, that involves the invasion J'onn warned me about." Lucius smiled and said " how can I be of service Mister Wayne?" I answered his question "Lucius is there a way we can reverse-engineer this ion matrix in order to make a device to reverse what the terraforming plants are doing to the planet." Lucius took a moment to thank and then answered " It shouldn't be too difficult if the ion Matrix must give off some form of electricity it shouldn't take me too long create a device that can reverse the polarity. which would in turn undo the terraforming effects." I like it when a plan comes together "I'll be back in Gotham the next Four hours to pick up the device Batman out."

4 hours later

After arriving back in Gotham I headed straight for Wayne Tower getting out of the Batwing and landed at the landing on the balcony outside of my office. Where is Lucius Fox greeted me and gave me the device that I knew could be instrumental in ending this invasion. Afterward I flew the Batwing back to Metropolis.

April 17th-28th Defeating the Alien Invaders

After arriving back in Metropolis I deployed from the Batwing and glided down to the hole in the terraforming plant wall I heard screaming below Which prompted me to look up noticing a massive Starship emerging from the cloud layer I realized I had little time to lose I quickly began to make my way to the core of the terraforming plant.

As I was making my way through the chair pouring plans I noted that the Invaders didn't react my presence this could only mean that J'onn mental shielding oh my presence was working. that's when I spotted the others must have walked into a trap room because they were being carried by the Invaders, deeper into the terraforming plant which conveniently lead me right to the central core where it appears this was also where Invaders were holding Superman and Hawkgirl on a platform Right across from the ion Matrix.

I use my grapple to get up to the ion matrix. Reaching into my utility belt and pulling out my explosive gel gadget "J'onn I'm in position, I'm Planting the explosive gel now." His response was why fast for someone unconscious "When I shout now that's the signal." That's when I heard shouting going across the way.

"J'onn J'onn wake up. You shouldn't have risked your lives for us." recognized that voice it was Superman. J'onn must have been stirred awake by Superman shouting from what I could hear from my vantage point "Would you have done any less for me?" That's when the flash groaned and said "My aching head."

That's when one of the Alien Invaders and started addressing the others " Earth's Mightiest Heroes welcome." That's when the Invaders shape-shifted it is Senator Carter "I always knew there was something off about him.".

"Senator Carter?" Superman said bewildered As the invader/Carter chuckled and said, " Unfortunately, the real Carter never got to return from Mars." That's when Superman put two and two together and said "And you used me To weaken Earth's defenses." the invader/Carter continue to gloat "You were so eager to cooperate thanks to you, the humans were totally helpless against us."

From the sound of Superman's voice he wasn't ready to give up "It's not over yet." "Not by a long shot." I think to myself but the invader/Carter Didn't feel the turd by Superman and said "Wrong again, Superman." That's when the roof opened and a landing ship flute down from the one I saw it earlier there was a lot of Thunderclap and the invader/Carter Shouted "All hail the Imperium."

That was an extremely ugly purplish clear grey Tentacled alien thing that almost looks like a cell of some kind emerge from the landing ship And it said "J'onn J'onzz. It's been a long time" That was when J'onn was pulled from the group and placed in front of the Imperium The Invaders electrocuted and reverting back to his true form and then the Imperium proceed to use its tentacles to lift J'onn up off the ground I'm pulling inside of it While saying "Much better you have defied us for we will personally now we will be finishing what should have been accomplished long ago, the elimination of the last Martian."

I took the opportunity to start spraying the explosive gel down in a spot that would allow me to access the Ion Matrix without having to disabling the forcefield. readying my finger over the Detonator button for when J'onn gave his signal.

I think that's when the Imperium start to realize J'onn was hiding something because he was refusing to break That's when the Imperium shouted "what are you hiding." As it proceeded to electrocute J'onn again that's when he shape-shifted back into his Martian Manhunter form and shouted "Now!"

I my thumd clicked the explosive gel detonator causing an explosion that revealed my presence to the Invaders and to the shock of the others "Batman?" Flash set with surprise surprise, and Diana followed him up with "It can't be." That's when J'onn reveals how I was able to sneak in " I mentally shielded him so he couldn't be detected."

that's why I place the device courtesy of Lucius Fox on the ion Matrix reversing polarity and causing the shield to change from red to blue to the shock of the invader/Carter "What are you doing?" So I answered his question "I just reversed the ion charge." The Imperium most have realized the ramifications of what I just done because it started shouting "The crystal destroys it!" the Invaders started opening fire so I use my grapple launch myself into the air, the Invaders shooting after a few seconds with the invader/Carter saying " it's shielded."

I proceeded to Glide down to the others As the device did its work changing the orders on the Crystal to clear the sky letting sunlight which in turn cause chaos among the Invaders because they realized they had to head for cover or melt which one of them did in that moment. J'onn took that moment to get loose from inside the Imperium pulling it further into the sunlight as the Imperium screamed "No!"

J'onn Responded to it's no by saying "You live underground and shun the light. why Does it burn your pale, putrid skin?" As the Imperium continues to scream that's when the Flash made a comment that I had to agree with "Ooh, that's one nasty sunburn." I landed in front of Diana Quickly pulling out a blow torch for my utility belt in order to free her hands as well as doing the scientific answer "Ultraviolet rays, coming from a world were none could penetrate these invaders have no resistance to our sun's radiation."

"So you did find their weakness after all." Diana said sounding impressed I nodded and said "I can't take all the credit after all you were the one that made the hole in the terraforming plant in Egypt. it's the reason the Invaders ran deeper into the plant like the cowards they are." It was then that I got Diana's left hand free It was a good thing too because at that same moment the Imperium screamed orders to fire on us.

Diana was able to deflect the blast that nearly hit me as I was working on free her other arm that's when Superman flew in grabbing the platform in front of us and ripped it up to act as a makeshift wall protecting us from the oncoming energy blast. I finished freeing Diana at that moment at the same time Superman uses heat vision to free hawkgirl and she in turn free Green Lantern, with Diana freeing The Flash feet.

I have to meet my Electro gauntlets in charged the Invaders punching several of them in the sunlight causing them to melt. I know some would say I was breaking my one rule to never kill but this Technically is a war time scenario So I think I get a free pass. I could see Superman making more holes in the roof with Diana and Green Lantern joining him to help make holes.

It was around that time that the Imperium decided it was done letting J'onn cook it alive it shocked him and pulled its tentacles out of him fleeing back to its landing shuttle, the invader/Carter Try to escape with the Imperium but it just tossed him aside leaving him to melt into nothing. Diana quickly realized the Imperium was trying to flee so she used her lasso to try to hold the ship in place and pull it down.

at the same time Superman flew over to check on J'onn how many years has heat vision treat a hole killing three more Invaders That's when the Imperial shuttle open fire on Diana causing her to lose her grip on the lasso. thankfully Hawkgirl was able to pass the ship and started wailing on it with her mace doing severe damage and giving Diana enough time to fly up and grab her lasso and start pulling the shuttle back down. this gaveHawkgirl enough time to do enough damage to cause the shuttle lose power and come crashing down into the terraform plant .

If it wasn't for the flash I probably would've been squashed by the shuttle and of course he had to comment on it saying "We'd hate to lose you again. But maybe we should get out of here" That's when Superman came flying in pointing to the civilians being held in Alien containers saying " not without them." As he perceived uses heat vision to freedom from the containers There were some surviving Invaders trying to put up a fight by opening fire on him but that didn't last long because J'onn came up from behind and uses spacing powers to take them down. flash then ran up to one of the civilians and said "ew gross." Superman barked orders at him " now." which caused the flash to stop complaining and grab the civilian.

"the whole place is going to blow!" Hawkgirl shouted down to us. Germanna flash manage to get the civilians into one place so that Green Lantern to create a bubble and carry them out telling them all to stay close. Superman grabbed Flash to carry him to safety, and Diana grab my hands in order to fly me to safety. thankfully all seven of us and the civilians managed to clear the blast after placing the civilians down somewhere safe. we watchedThe Invader ship I'm guessing main command ship flee back into space to Hopefully never return.

A few days later I was sitting in front of the bat computer watching the news reports from the cleanup of invasion "This is Snapper Carr. In the aftermath Of the metropolis meltdown, Most of the invaders have retreated from Earth. Superman and a team of other heroes Have driven out the remaining pockets of resistance, Helping to restore order around the world. Despite this stunning victory, Some are warning that we must remain vigilant." Has the new segment cuts from Snapper Carr the new segment of the general giving a speech "We got lucky this time. What will we do if the invaders ever return?"

Immediate transition to the Watchtower

April 29th the Watchtower becomes fully operational

I called everyone together and show them the javelin and told everyone to come on board and I flew us up to the watchtower I gave everyone a map of the layout and told them that we would meet up in the monitor womb in two hours to discuss things.

1:58 later

Superman and I were having a discussion before the others arrived "Incredible. Do your stockholders know about this, Bruce?"I gave Superman and annoyed look before answering "A line item hidden in the aerospace R&D budget. This Watchtower will act as an early-warning system For detecting other threats of invasion from space." That's when Flash and Diana walked in. It looks like the two of them found the kitchen which I made sure it was stocked best food available.

"Mmm. They don't have these on Themyscira." Diana said with a smile and I responded "Stick around, princess I'll show you the ropes." but now that I think about it that response came out a little flirty what I did not expect was her answer what I said "perhaps I will."

That's when Green Lantern and Hawkgirl Keep flying down from an upper level in the monitor womb with Lantern saying "An impressive installation." and Hawkgirl said the same before Lantern continued "But what's it got to do with us?" Superman was the one to answer his question.

"I once thought I could protect the world by myself, But I was wrong. Working together, we saved the planet, And I believe that if we stayed together as a team, We would be a force that could truly work For the ideals of peace and justice." and of course flash had to cracker joke about the serious matter "What, like a bunch of super friends?" I gave him a bat glare as Superman continued " More like a Justice League." At least flash decide to be serious about what he said next "Do you have any idea how corny that sounds, but maybe the big guy's got a point. With all of us behind it, it just might work so you can count me in." Starting what is effectively a group handshake with Green Lantern agreeing to join next "I'm in" then Hawkgirl "and me".

followed by Diana "My mother may not approve, but I find man's world to be intriguing. I'll gladly join." I need the bat in the back of my mind was trying to convince me to do this hole Justice League idea part-time but my conscience/rational thinking won out and to everyone's surprise I walk forward and put my hand in and said "You can count me." to everyone's surprise.

"Im surprised bat's I thought you Preferred to work alone?" flash said with surprising his voice I was tempted to bat glare at him but decided against it and just answer his question "I did once, but I found out you never know when you might need a friend." That's when J'onn flew down from the main control center up above and put his hand in as well "You Can Count Me In as well I've grown quite attached to Earth since my arrival two years ago." That's when Superman said "Then we're all agreed."

The screenplay Fades to Black in the outro place

A/N my take on Batman is primarily based on the Batman cartoon from 2004 who was a younger/less jaded and more trusting version version of The Dark Knight. The Flash in this universe is Barry allen which is why I didn't really use any of his flirting lines since he's already married to Iris West. also for the locations of the Cities such as Gotham and Metropolis are based on a DC Universe RPG map of the United States East Coast which place Metropolis in Delaware and and gotham was placed in New Jersey (specifically South Jersey there's also the fact that when batman dress as matches Malone uses a northern Jersey accent).

Year 7: Age 24-25

Bruce P.O.V

April 10th WT satellite communications facility

I'm made my way across the roof of the facility reaching one of the ceilings grates that I quickly removed and dropped down onto a support beam as I overlooked the control room I heard one of the Scientist talking to his coworkers, Reminding them that he was having a barbecue at his place this upcoming Saturday night and they were all invited. After the co-workers promised to be there he jokingly called them animals did the finger gun motion pointing at his co-workers and then exited. I continued to watch from my vantage point in the shadows above the three remaining scientists as far as I could tell nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

But then the scientist who balding start speaking in a language that definitely wasn't a known human language likely alien to his co-workers. That was when the scientist who appeared to be of Asian descent suddenly performed the feat of metahuman strength that he should not have been able to do, as he held the computer bank the final coworker who was of African American descent walked over and ripped the wall open with her bare hands revealing an alien looking device of some kind the female scientist grabbed it at the same time her co-worker slammed the computer Bank on the ground and the three started making their way towards the elevator.

I quickly activated my cowels detective vision to see if I could determine what the device was made of but as I look down at the scientists I realize they had no bone structure, normally I would at least get an x-ray of a skeleton silhouette when using detective vision it's only confirmed my suspicions that these scientists weren't human and we're here for some of its nefarious purpose, very likely here to sabotage the satellite dish. I exited the way I had entered into the control room quickly getting back to the roof. I noticed that the roof access door was open.

But I did not see the scientist anywhere which could only mean they'd already made it to the dish. pulling my grapple gun from my utility belt using its Propel myself to the top of the dish. But I got up there too late, They'd already placed the alien device on the center of a dish it somehow morph into a liquid and entered the dish, I revealed myself to to the scientist imposters with a one liner that probably would have made Nightwing cringe "I doubt that modifications legal" Using my bolas to ensnare balding scientist and one of Asian descent as well as landed on them knocking them to the ground and before me in front flip Landing between them and the final imposter cracking another bad one liner "Should have stuck to your desk jobs."

I lunged forward at the final imposter however, she was faster and dodging my attack with ease. I could barely avoid the punch at my head but then she nailed me in the gut grabbed me and through me over the other two imposters I did a mid-air somersault landing on my feet. As I stood back up the two imposters that I ensnared with my Bola freed themselves Furthering my suspicions that they weren't human. Female imposter charged at me I jumped backwards and throw Batarang that's nailed her in the head and bounced right off. The Imposter of Asian descent then charged and managed to shove me off acting quickly I fired my grapple quickly swinging back onto the satellite, that's when a good friend of mine made his appearance.

"Need a hand?" a voice I knew all too well asked I turned to face Superman who was floating above me and said "Thanks, I honestly could use some help right now." Superman responded with what I think was supposed to be a joke "They don't look so tough" "Famous Last Words Clark" I think to myself That's when the Imposter starts shouting at us In the alien language that I had heard earlier That's when they turned around and started making a break for it. Superman and I started to give chase but something happened that caused Superman to suddenly start Groaning in pain causing him to land the dish which prompted me to stop and turn around I'll start hearing a beeping sound which meant that device they planted was a bomb I helped Superman to his feet and rushed to the other side of the dish barely escaping the explosion.

We ended up sliding down the hill which work out in our favor because we were far enough back but close enough that we could still see the imposters This confirmed my suspicions that they weren't human, The Imposter of the Asian descent scientist arm was sticking through the balding imposter Chest. Female Imposter looked all disjointed but in a matter of seconds they fix themselves and disappeared Into the Woods.

I heard Superman grown as he regained consciousness I walked over and asked him what happened "What happened back there?" as I helped him up he answered my question "I don't know, I saw images, It was so intense and then well that's all I can remember." There's only one telepath I know who might try to reach out to Superman for help "Do you think it was J'onn?" I asked Superman give me a skeptic look and asked "what's going on?" Realizing I should have been formed him of the reason why Metropolis I started explaining what was going on "J'onn has been missing since april 7th. Before he disappeared called me about a case he want to discuss on the 10th on the rooftop of gcpd,when I arrive to meet up with him, Gordon informed me that J'onn had not been scene since he punched out on April 7th. So I went to investigate his apartment I found it ransacked, there was evidence of a fight but whoever the assailant Managed to kidnap J'onn, failed to find the flash drive J'onn had hid behind the false wall in his apartment." Superman raised an eyebrow then asked "what exactly was on the drive."

I continued explanation "I noticed there has been breaches in our global security network in the past few months, and the info J'onn left on his drive revealed he had came to the very same conclusion but I am, deep space monitoring stations across the globe were being sabotaged, It's the reason I was here tonight." Superman side then asked "Do you think this was J'onn was trying to warn us about".

"I do. I was hoping we'd have more time. the watchtower long-range deep-space scanners are still offline."as I reached into my utility belt and pulled out a com/earpiece handing it Superman. "The only watchtower system currently operational at the moment is the communication system this com will allow us to keep in contact." As I finished explaining what was going on Superman put the com into his ear and seid.

"Look I'd like to help look into this further. But I'm expected in New York City." I raised an eyebrow under my cowl and asked "are you receiving key to the city?" Superman chuckled at my comment but then answered "No I've been asked to attend a UN on the proposed plan to dismantle the world's nuclear Arsenal." I decide not to press Superman any further on it further on it and started summoning the Batwing to my location and told Superman" I still have the signal watch you gave me after our first team up. So I'll be sure to call if I need any more help." pulling my grapple gun from my utility belt and fired at the batwing and started flying to the Airfield just outside of metropolis.

April 15th Star Labs Warehouse/Rescuing J'onn from a compromise military base

I decided to say Metropolis few days to see if I can find any trace of satellite saboteur's. My investigation led me to the abandoned Star Labs warehouse I got into one of the windows landing on the upper work area that overlooks the main floor I walked over to the table and noticed an alien device similar to the one the imposters used five nights 's when I heard the door open and spotted two of the imposters/saboteur's From five days ago emerge From what was probably Foreman's office talking in the same alien language as before. The female impostor turn off the light and the two of them left out the front door.

Once they were gone I made my way over to the office opening the door and shining a light from a flashlight from my utility belt and looked around discovering Some kind of alien containers that looked to be housing the real scientist's I pulled out a Batarang for my utility belt and cut into the container freeing the balding scientist with a mustache I checked his pulse and discovered he was still alive, thankfully he groaned.

That's when I heard growling I turned shining my flashlight in the doorway, a dog came in and pounced on me with unnatural strength pushing me up against the wall as well as Trying to bite my face off. I managed to get my feet under the dog and kicked it off of me, it landed knocking over the desk which gave me enough time to get to my feet the dog charged that I managed to barely avoid by jumping up to ventilation pipe As I look down at the dog it started climbing up the wall and shape-shifting into an alien appearance, which I honestly should have seen it coming, the alien creature managed to overpower me sending me flying into A mass of shelf before I lost consciousness I managed to Activate the signal watch Superman gave me…

30 minutes later

As I was starting to stir from being knocked unconscious I could hear Superman shouting to someone "Medic he needs help!" so he was telling you to medical personnel "What happened?" by her tone of voice I could tell the paramedic was female. "I'm not sure." Superman's it simply before flying off I could feel the medic checking my pulse my eyes were open at that point and I could see her reaching for my cowl I lift my left hand up catching her by the wrist She gasps As I otter a pretty cool one liner "Don't even think about it." after letting go of her wrist I brought my other arm activating my gauntlet with computer. sending a command to the Batwing autopilot ordering it to fly to my location.

That's when I spotted Superman get blasted back by some kind of beam of energy and a thing that had sent him flying was on the move that's when I spotted the Batwing was right over my location I pulled my grapple gun for my utility belt and fired it just as the paramedic was saying to her partner "we better get out of here" I quickly got inside the bat wings cockpit And started flying towards what looked to be some sort of alien machine that was attacking the city.

I fired two missiles at it but they were ineffective I was forced to take evasive maneuvers has it started firing beams of energy at the Batwing That's when Superman flew in knocking it into the bridge and then proceeded trying to rip it open that of course failed because of the alien machine Fired a beam sending Clark flying into a building I flew in again firing two more missiles hoping to keep the thing occupied. But things only got worse two more alien machines emerge from the meteorit.

As I continue to engage the alien machine's Superman flew past me flying out of metropolis so I called him over the com I gave him "Where are you going?" I asked wondering why he would suddenly leave the fight. Superman responded instantly "I know where J'onn Is." As soon as the words left his mouth I realize what he meant so I pulled a quick maneuver with the Batwing flying off after Superman.

2 hours later

Superman and I arrived at a military base in the mountains several miles outside of metropolis. I took note that the bass look like It had been attacked several weeks ago without warning. I perceive it to land the Batwing and walked over to Superman. Who just made a hole in the wall of the base As we were making our way through I noticed one of the doors was ajar. so I quickly took a look inside and discover will look to be the entire base personnel in Alien containers like the ones I had to start at the Star Labs warehouse, I made my way back to Superman who was trying to Punches way through military-grade vault door and said, "We better get to J'onn fast this base is compromised." he nodded and proceeded to lift the bent nuclear blast door and toss it aside.

We proceed into a corridor lined with computer screens on the walls Medical readouts and vital signs of an alien prisoner, we reach the secondary security door that Superman pushed the door open sending it to the floor, As we entered the room we could see a Martian hooked up to some kind of machine Superman walked up to the control panel and turned it off Freeing the Martian Causing him to fall forward Superman caught him before he hit the floor and said "J'onn's been trying to reach out to me telepathically, But that stasis field interfered. When his message finally broke through, I came to rescue him."

"J'onn are you all right?" I asked, J'onn responded to my question telepathically "The Invasion. The Invaders got the drop on me, at my apartment and brought me here. To hold me captive until the Imperium arrives." After J'onn finish speaking in our minds he shape-shifted into the appearance he had when I first discovered he was a Martian masquerading as a human over Two years ago. Superman, J'onn and I made our way out of the base Superman started talking "We'll need to contact the joint chiefs right away." As we exited through the whole Superman had made in the wall As we were walking back towards the Batwing, Several spotlights turned on revealing the base personnel, The officer was shouting at us.

"Stop right there, Superman. You're trespassing in a restricted area. Our orders are to keep that freak here." Superman stepped in front of J'onn and said "Wait I'll vouch for him you must let us go." I started to prep a Batarang knowing full well from what I discovered that this place is compromised fake officer responded "I don't think so." Superman tried to plead with him "But the world's security may be at stake." That's when the fake military officer and Personnel reveal their true forms as he spoke "That's why he'll never leave here alive." shapeshifting into a white alien with three red eyes and grayish-black outlines/swirl's.

"It's them" J'onn said that's when the Invaders charge forward opening fire on the three of us Superman knocked J'onn and I Out of the way with a single Blast from there energy weapons sent Superman flying into a military transport truck that was on its side He collapsed to the ground groaning " Unh." I pulled an explosive battery for my belt and told J'onn "Stay down." As I threw my explosive to Batarang. It Explode sending several then flying back, As I was prepping another Explosive Batarang J'onn shouted "Behind you!" As he fazed through me Then materialized creating a shield around himself in order to Shield me from The Invader the come from behind and fired his rifle nailing J'onn in the chest causing him to groan and collapsed to the ground I quickly through the Batarang nailing the invader in the head knock him to the ground.

I checked on J'onn trying to help him up and asked "J'onn are you" as he groaned. I Lift his arm over my shoulder, that's when Superman flew over holding an upside down tank above his head " Get J'onn to safety I'll cover you." I didn't need to be told twice I walked J'onn over to the Batwing And placed him in the co-pilot seat and strapped him in, and then climbed into the my pilot seat closing the canopy and taking off.

I turned my head noticing J'onn was a wake and said "That was close." That's when I realized I spoke too soon as J'onn said "We're not out of the woods yet, look." That was when a bunch of alien Fighters crafts emerged from the mountains opening fire on the Batwing I had no choice but to perform some evasive maneuvers through the mountain range as the alien Fighters fired energy blasts At the Batwing. Superman flew in taking out one of Fighters But they were sent hurtling to the ground then one of the other Fighters turned around and fired a blast at him I continued to perform maneuvers through the mountain range Barely flying through a narrow Gap trying to get rid of our pursuers.

that's when the worst thing happen one of the alien Fighters took out the bat wings left wing I struggle to keep the Batwing in the air as we fell directly towards the ground That's when suddenly it was a green light surrounding around the Batwing "what happened" I asked J'onn Responded simply with "Help has arrived." that's when I looked up on the cliff and noticed one of the Green Lanterns had arrived to help That's when I also noticed Hawkgirl fly over head.

"Hawkgirl what's she doing here?" I asked hoping J'onn would answer my question that was when he phased out of the Batwing to join Green Lantern who placed my Batwing down on a cliff, Superman, and Hawkgirl In destroying the alien Fighters As I watched from the ground and nearly avoid getting crushed by one of the destroyed Fighters.

As I continue to watch from the ground someone I never seen before joined the fight. The armor she was wearing this very familiar to me. So I ran a quick cross reference using my left gauntlets link to the batcomputer and ran a quick cross reference on it The image that came up on my halo screen that only I could see showed a painting that was displayed at the old JSA headquarters in Gotham City, the difference being that the woman in the painting had blonde hair and her armor was had gold in a locations of the silver of on who I'm guessing is her successor and had what looked to be a skirt instead of the pants that her successor appear to be wearing, I checked the bio information and it referred to her as Wonder Woman/Hippolyta of themyscira I wonder if she has some relation to this mysterious woman that shown up to help.

That's when everyone started flying back where Lantern had placed my Batwing That's when I Noticed a blur of red and black running to my location shouting "Hey Bat's I think you dropped this." why J'onn decided to Involve The Flash/Barry Allen I have no idea. As he came to a stop in front of me. That's when Superman and the woman (I will refer to as Wonder Woman for now going off her armor) land in front of the Flash and I.

Of course Flash decided to ask the question to Wonder Woman was on everybody's mind As he handed me my bat wings missing wing "So where are you from?" She answered "Themyscira." which confirmed my suspicions but confused Flash. before I could tell him. Hawkgirl responded before me As she landed "The home of the Amazons I always thought it was merely Legend."

Wonder Woman responded by saying "I assure you, it's as real as the ground on which we stand. I am Diana, princess of the Amazons." I think I'll Start using her name now. As Diana went on to say "Themyscira is protected by the gods, But I could not idly stand by while the rest of the world was in danger." Superman took this moment to jump into the conversation "It was lucky you showed up when you did."

That's when J'onn spoke. "No, not luck I tell telepathically summoned them here." That's one flash jumped back into the conversation "Look, I'm usually pretty quick on the uptake, But would someone please tell me what the heck is going on here?"

"J'onn why don't you bring the four them up to speed, while Superman and I fix my Batwing." I said He nodded in agreement pulling the other aside using his telepathy showing them the flashback that he had shown Superman and I over two years ago.

45 minutes later

we finished the repairs just in time to hear J'onn finish his history lesson "I sealed up their citadel to keep them in a constant state of suspended animation. for over five hundred years, I stood guard over them. But then, two earth years ago while I was in a hibernation cycle, Astronauts from earth unsealed the stronghold and accidentally revived the invaders." That's when flash skeptically said "Wait those astronauts never said anything about finding life on mars."

That's one Green Lantern said "Some pencil pusher in Washington Probably decided it should be Classified information." J'onn then continued "With all of the Remaining Green-white Martians, safely hidden away, on Mars's moons The Invaders have nothing to feed on and if set their sights on Earth. somehow I managed to get to earth ahead of the invaders it is how I met Superman and Batman, and warned them of the coming invasion." that's when everyone looked at Superman and I.

So I entered the conversation "As J'onn said He had arrived on our two years ago and made contact with me and Superman, I was working closely with J'onn in preparation for this invasion, up until his disappearance eight days ago that's when I realized the sabotage to our deep space monitoring network could be coincidence. Sure enough, five days ago when I was investigating the deep space monitoring station just outside of Metropolis, Superman and I had a run-in with three of those advanced agents. J'onn had warned us about."

That's when Green Lantern said "We have to stop them before it's too late." J'onn gave Lantern a disheartened look and said "It may already be too late." That's when we all heard of mass of Thunderclap in the distance and Wonder Woman said, "What was that?" and J'onn answered "It has begun." "What are they doing?" Hawkgirl asked.

"The invaders are nocturnal they want to blot out the sun so they can live in perpetual darkness." J'onn said simply. Of course flash chose then to make a joke about me" friends of yours?" I gave him a well deserved bat-glare and said "It's no joke." That's when flash walked up to J'onn and said "What's the big problem, can't you just whip up another batch of that nerve gas?" J'onn shook his head and answered "Unfortunately, no the gas can only be made from a rare Martian plant the only sample I brought with me Is currently in Superman's Fortress of Solitude which will take time manufacturer time we do not have."

I decided then to step in and propose a plan to potentially stop this invasion "Since the nerve gas is a no-go we're going to have to split up into three teams, and try to dismantle the terraforming Plants the old fashioned way." as I bring up the locations we're the Invaders meteors had landed and started dividing everyone up into teams.

"Superman, and Hawkgirl head back to Metropolis and takeout the plant there. Green Lantern, and Flash's task will be to head for South America and take the Invaders plant in the rainforest. Diana, J'onn, and I will head for the Invaders plant Just outside of Cairo. Oh and before I forget."

I received my utility belt and pulled out five com's and handed them out to Green Lantern, flash, Hawkgirl, Wonder Woman, and J'onn and said "These com's will allow us to keep in contact there the Watchtower orbital station." once the coms handed out I walked back over to the Batwing and climbed in and took off for Egypt Diana and J'onn flying with me

I decided to send a coded message to Nightwing and the Titans telling them to do what they can to protect civilians from the Invaders. Afterwards I used the time flying to Egypt to get some shut-eye since it was going to take a few hours to get there from delaware.

April 16th attacking the Alien Invaders Factory in Egypt/reverse engineering the alien Tech

4 hours later (Since the Batwing use the same technology as the javelin it should take less time to get from Delaware to Cairo)

When we arrived in Cairo Egypt we could already see the Invaders plant had emerged bring you the Pyramids of Giza, I deployed from the Batwing. Landing behind some cover where Diana and I Waited for J'onn join us after informing us telepathically that he would Scout the area and see if he could find a way in.

"Hiding like cowards is not the Amazon way." Diana said with a bit of annoyance in her voice Trying to remain focused I responded back "These Invaders most have some form of weakness, when we find it, we'll strike." That's when J'onn Fazed up through the ground in front of us, and began speaking "I have scouted the outer walls. There are no openings."

"then we make our own." as she flew to attack one of the only machines. I Held my arm up to stop J'onn from joining her Saying "Wait let's see what she can do." Is J'onn and I watched Diana from the ground use her the lasso to tie up the legs of the machine causing it to topple over creating a hole in the factory wall and saying "there's your opening." I couldn't help but smile and say "Not bad." I took out my grapple and used it to launch myself into the hole Diana created with J'onn flying in right beside me.

When we arrived inside Diana was using her bracelets to deflect shots fired from the Invaders energy weapons but for some reason did decided to hightail it and run and oddly enough one of them deliberately tried to avoid walking in sunlight with Diana saying " they run like cowards what are you waiting for." as she started to give chase.

That's when I realized something as I look back at the Blue Sky above which made me wonder if the Invaders were deliberately blocking out the sunlight because they came from a world where the sun wasn't visible which is why they had to terraform the plant to make it more suitable for them I decided to ask J'onn there his telepathy of course, as we fought our way through the terraforming factory.

"J'onn Did the Invaders ever emerge from their Plants before Mars was completely covered in darkness?" His response was fast "No invaders never emerged from the terraforming Plants until after Mars was completely shrouded in darkness, why do you ask." I responded back At the same time punching an invader out of my way "I have a theory that these Invaders may have come from a world where no sunlight could penetrate."

The further we got in to the terraforming plant the more the Invaders continue to block our path Diana was the one to voice the very thing I was thinking "They've blocked us off again." I responded to her comment " It's almost as if they know what we're thinking." but I don't know how they would know what I'm thinking my cowels lined with Electronics which would make it difficult for them to read my mind.

I threw an explosive Batarang that exploded against a pillar which caused the Invaders to flee deeper into the factory I turned to look at J'onn and said "Any ideas, J'onn." that's When I noticed his eyes were glowing "J'onn!" I shouted That's when J'onn replied with the worst possible news.

"Superman and Hawkgirl are down, there have failed." "What are you sure?" Diane asked. J'onn nodded and said " I can sense it, This way hurry" as he started running down the corridor and Diane and I followed suit we reach the area where flight was required which was simple for J'onn and Diana I had to pull up my grapple to reach the doorway above.

I ran down the corridor while J'onn and Diana flew we came to a stop in a large open area. Diana looks back to make sure we weren't followed and she said "We lost them." "For the moment." I replied as I activated my gauntlets shock capability. "Look." Diana and I walked over to see what J'onn was looking at.

"It's the central core." After looking at the core for a moment I turned and asked "How can we shut it down." J'onn Pointed and said "The ion matrix crystal If we can remove that, we'll shut down the whole Terraforming plant, I will need a diversion." I nodded and said "You've got it." As I pulled the Batarang from my utility belt and through it cut through some sort of pipe Dropping some sort of fluid on the Alien Invaders working at the console. Diana did the same ripping what I assumed was a pipe close by releasing some of that strange gas on the Invaders.

This created the perfect diversion allowing for J'onn to slip past the Invaders while Diana and I engage the other Invaders to keep them busy. J'onn managed to successfully Remove the ion matrix but he was then shot by one of the Invaders sending him and the ion Matrix falling to the ground. Diana seeing what happened floor to help him I realized we need to leave so I shouted it to her "Get him out of here." As I continue to fight off Invaders.

As we were trying to retreat I grabbed the Ion Matrix this however slowed me down because by the time I reached the exit the door had sealed I turned to look behind me noting I was surrounded. So I tried reaching out to J'onn "J'onn is there a way that you can mentally shield me, make the Invaders think they killed me?" His response was fast "Yes." I dropped the Ion Matrix and said in my mind "Do it." Just as the Invaders open fire I managed to dodge out of the way grabbing the ion Matrix I Stood Still For a Moment looking at the Invaders this confirmed this J'onn mental Shield was working. It took some time but I managed to find my own way out of the plants I made my way back to the Batwing Once I was Airborne I called Lucius Fox Activating the back wings Halo com.

"Lucius there something I need your help with, that involves the invasion J'onn warned me about." Lucius smiled and said " how can I be of service Mister Wayne?" I answered his question "Lucius is there a way we can reverse-engineer this ion matrix in order to make a device to reverse what the terraforming plants are doing to the planet." Lucius took a moment to thank and then answered " It shouldn't be too difficult if the ion Matrix must give off some form of electricity it shouldn't take me too long create a device that can reverse the polarity. which would in turn undo the terraforming effects." I like it when a plan comes together "I'll be back in Gotham the next Four hours to pick up the device Batman out."

4 hours later

After arriving back in Gotham I headed straight for Wayne Tower getting out of the Batwing and landed at the landing on the balcony outside of my office. Where is Lucius Fox greeted me and gave me the device that I knew could be instrumental in ending this invasion. Afterward I flew the Batwing back to Metropolis.

April 17th-28th Defeating the Alien Invaders

After arriving back in Metropolis I deployed from the Batwing and glided down to the hole in the terraforming plant wall I heard screaming below Which prompted me to look up noticing a massive Starship emerging from the cloud layer I realized I had little time to lose I quickly began to make my way to the core of the terraforming plant.

As I was making my way through the chair pouring plans I noted that the Invaders didn't react my presence this could only mean that J'onn mental shielding oh my presence was working. that's when I spotted the others must have walked into a trap room because they were being carried by the Invaders, deeper into the terraforming plant which conveniently lead me right to the central core where it appears this was also where Invaders were holding Superman and Hawkgirl on a platform Right across from the ion Matrix.

I use my grapple to get up to the ion matrix. Reaching into my utility belt and pulling out my explosive gel gadget "J'onn I'm in position, I'm Planting the explosive gel now." His response was why fast for someone unconscious "When I shout now that's the signal." That's when I heard shouting going across the way.

"J'onn J'onn wake up. You shouldn't have risked your lives for us." recognized that voice it was Superman. J'onn must have been stirred awake by Superman shouting from what I could hear from my vantage point "Would you have done any less for me?" That's when the flash groaned and said "My aching head."

That's when one of the Alien Invaders and started addressing the others " Earth's Mightiest Heroes welcome." That's when the Invaders shape-shifted it is Senator Carter "I always knew there was something off about him.".

"Senator Carter?" Superman said bewildered As the invader/Carter chuckled and said, " Unfortunately, the real Carter never got to return from Mars." That's when Superman put two and two together and said "And you used me To weaken Earth's defenses." the invader/Carter continue to gloat "You were so eager to cooperate thanks to you, the humans were totally helpless against us."

From the sound of Superman's voice he wasn't ready to give up "It's not over yet." "Not by a long shot." I think to myself but the invader/Carter Didn't feel the turd by Superman and said "Wrong again, Superman." That's when the roof opened and a landing ship flute down from the one I saw it earlier there was a lot of Thunderclap and the invader/Carter Shouted "All hail the Imperium."

That was an extremely ugly purplish clear grey Tentacled alien thing that almost looks like a cell of some kind emerge from the landing ship And it said "J'onn J'onzz. It's been a long time" That was when J'onn was pulled from the group and placed in front of the Imperium The Invaders electrocuted and reverting back to his true form and then the Imperium proceed to use its tentacles to lift J'onn up off the ground I'm pulling inside of it While saying "Much better you have defied us for we will personally now we will be finishing what should have been accomplished long ago, the elimination of the last Martian."

I took the opportunity to start spraying the explosive gel down in a spot that would allow me to access the Ion Matrix without having to disabling the forcefield. readying my finger over the Detonator button for when J'onn gave his signal.

I think that's when the Imperium start to realize J'onn was hiding something because he was refusing to break That's when the Imperium shouted "what are you hiding." As it proceeded to electrocute J'onn again that's when he shape-shifted back into his Martian Manhunter form and shouted "Now!"

I my thumd clicked the explosive gel detonator causing an explosion that revealed my presence to the Invaders and to the shock of the others "Batman?" Flash set with surprise surprise, and Diana followed him up with "It can't be." That's when J'onn reveals how I was able to sneak in " I mentally shielded him so he couldn't be detected."

that's why I place the device courtesy of Lucius Fox on the ion Matrix reversing polarity and causing the shield to change from red to blue to the shock of the invader/Carter "What are you doing?" So I answered his question "I just reversed the ion charge." The Imperium most have realized the ramifications of what I just done because it started shouting "The crystal destroys it!" the Invaders started opening fire so I use my grapple launch myself into the air, the Invaders shooting after a few seconds with the invader/Carter saying " it's shielded."

I proceeded to Glide down to the others As the device did its work changing the orders on the Crystal to clear the sky letting sunlight which in turn cause chaos among the Invaders because they realized they had to head for cover or melt which one of them did in that moment. J'onn took that moment to get loose from inside the Imperium pulling it further into the sunlight as the Imperium screamed "No!"

J'onn Responded to it's no by saying "You live underground and shun the light. why Does it burn your pale, putrid skin?" As the Imperium continues to scream that's when the Flash made a comment that I had to agree with "Ooh, that's one nasty sunburn." I landed in front of Diana Quickly pulling out a blow torch for my utility belt in order to free her hands as well as doing the scientific answer "Ultraviolet rays, coming from a world were none could penetrate these invaders have no resistance to our sun's radiation."

"So you did find their weakness after all." Diana said sounding impressed I nodded and said "I can't take all the credit after all you were the one that made the hole in the terraforming plant in Egypt. it's the reason the Invaders ran deeper into the plant like the cowards they are." It was then that I got Diana's left hand free It was a good thing too because at that same moment the Imperium screamed orders to fire on us.

Diana was able to deflect the blast that nearly hit me as I was working on free her other arm that's when Superman flew in grabbing the platform in front of us and ripped it up to act as a makeshift wall protecting us from the oncoming energy blast. I finished freeing Diana at that moment at the same time Superman uses heat vision to free hawkgirl and she in turn free Green Lantern, with Diana freeing The Flash feet.

I have to meet my Electro gauntlets in charged the Invaders punching several of them in the sunlight causing them to melt. I know some would say I was breaking my one rule to never kill but this Technically is a war time scenario So I think I get a free pass. I could see Superman making more holes in the roof with Diana and Green Lantern joining him to help make holes.

It was around that time that the Imperium decided it was done letting J'onn cook it alive it shocked him and pulled its tentacles out of him fleeing back to its landing shuttle, the invader/Carter Try to escape with the Imperium but it just tossed him aside leaving him to melt into nothing. Diana quickly realized the Imperium was trying to flee so she used her lasso to try to hold the ship in place and pull it down.

at the same time Superman flew over to check on J'onn how many years has heat vision treat a hole killing three more Invaders That's when the Imperial shuttle open fire on Diana causing her to lose her grip on the lasso. thankfully Hawkgirl was able to pass the ship and started wailing on it with her mace doing severe damage and giving Diana enough time to fly up and grab her lasso and start pulling the shuttle back down. this gaveHawkgirl enough time to do enough damage to cause the shuttle lose power and come crashing down into the terraform plant .

If it wasn't for the flash I probably would've been squashed by the shuttle and of course he had to comment on it saying "We'd hate to lose you again. But maybe we should get out of here" That's when Superman came flying in pointing to the civilians being held in Alien containers saying " not without them." As he perceived uses heat vision to freedom from the containers There were some surviving Invaders trying to put up a fight by opening fire on him but that didn't last long because J'onn came up from behind and uses spacing powers to take them down. flash then ran up to one of the civilians and said "ew gross." Superman barked orders at him " now." which caused the flash to stop complaining and grab the civilian.

"the whole place is going to blow!" Hawkgirl shouted down to us. Germanna flash manage to get the civilians into one place so that Green Lantern to create a bubble and carry them out telling them all to stay close. Superman grabbed Flash to carry him to safety, and Diana grab my hands in order to fly me to safety. thankfully all seven of us and the civilians managed to clear the blast after placing the civilians down somewhere safe. we watchedThe Invader ship I'm guessing main command ship flee back into space to Hopefully never return.

A few days later I was sitting in front of the bat computer watching the news reports from the cleanup of invasion "This is Snapper Carr. In the aftermath Of the metropolis meltdown, Most of the invaders have retreated from Earth. Superman and a team of other heroes Have driven out the remaining pockets of resistance, Helping to restore order around the world. Despite this stunning victory, Some are warning that we must remain vigilant." Has the new segment cuts from Snapper Carr the new segment of the general giving a speech "We got lucky this time. What will we do if the invaders ever return?"

Immediate transition to the Watchtower

April 29th the Watchtower becomes fully operational

I called everyone together and show them the javelin and told everyone to come on board and I flew us up to the watchtower I gave everyone a map of the layout and told them that we would meet up in the monitor womb in two hours to discuss things.

1:58 later

Superman and I were having a discussion before the others arrived "Incredible. Do your stockholders know about this, Bruce?"I gave Superman and annoyed look before answering "A line item hidden in the aerospace R&D budget. This Watchtower will act as an early-warning system For detecting other threats of invasion from space." That's when Flash and Diana walked in. It looks like the two of them found the kitchen which I made sure it was stocked best food available.

"Mmm. They don't have these on Themyscira." Diana said with a smile and I responded "Stick around, princess I'll show you the ropes." but now that I think about it that response came out a little flirty what I did not expect was her answer what I said "perhaps I will."

That's when Green Lantern and Hawkgirl Keep flying down from an upper level in the monitor womb with Lantern saying "An impressive installation." and Hawkgirl said the same before Lantern continued "But what's it got to do with us?" Superman was the one to answer his question.

"I once thought I could protect the world by myself, But I was wrong. Working together, we saved the planet, And I believe that if we stayed together as a team, We would be a force that could truly work For the ideals of peace and justice." and of course flash had to cracker joke about the serious matter "What, like a bunch of super friends?" I gave him a bat glare as Superman continued " More like a Justice League." At least flash decide to be serious about what he said next "Do you have any idea how corny that sounds, but maybe the big guy's got a point. With all of us behind it, it just might work so you can count me in." Starting what is effectively a group handshake with Green Lantern agreeing to join next "I'm in" then Hawkgirl "and me".

followed by Diana "My mother may not approve, but I find man's world to be intriguing. I'll gladly join." I need the bat in the back of my mind was trying to convince me to do this hole Justice League idea part-time but my conscience/rational thinking won out and to everyone's surprise I walk forward and put my hand in and said "You can count me." to everyone's surprise.

"Im surprised bat's I thought you Preferred to work alone?" flash said with surprising his voice I was tempted to bat glare at him but decided against it and just answer his question "I did once, but I found out you never know when you might need a friend." That's when J'onn flew down from the main control center up above and put his hand in as well "You Can Count Me In as well I've grown quite attached to Earth since my arrival two years ago." That's when Superman said "Then we're all agreed."

The screenplay Fades to Black in the outro place

A/N my take on Batman is primarily based on the Batman cartoon from 2004 who was a younger/less jaded and more trusting version version of The Dark Knight. The Flash in this universe is Barry allen which is why I didn't really use any of his flirting lines since he's already married to Iris West. also for the locations of the Cities such as Gotham and Metropolis are based on a DC Universe RPG map of the United States East Coast which place Metropolis in Delaware and and gotham was placed in New Jersey (specifically South Jersey there's also the fact that when batman dress as matches Malone uses a northern Jersey accent).
