A/N Ok, so even though I wish I owned PJO, I don't. Also, I don't own YJ either. Remember as you read this that it's an alternate dimension, and this is two years after the Justice Lords took over.
Their target was thirty feet away, naively surfing with a stupid grin on his face. Frankly, they couldn't believe it would be so easy. After three weeks of watching him, he had to know they were going to do something soon.
Their redhead leaned back and, with a sigh, mentally asked how much longer they would wait. He got no response, and sighed.
The teen rode the waves back and forth, clearly enjoying the surfing, and they looked at each other, and then at the teen again, with a nod.
Then, in an instant, water rose up under his board, and he flew off of it, then lingered in the air. The redhead offered his hand for a high five, but no one took it.
They weren't used to it being this easy. Normally when they're sent out, they end up in a fight, and because of this, they were uneasy. Their ninja glanced around, wearily, while the blonde glanced around in the sky. It was never this easy.
Then, their martian flew back, and the target fell towards the water, before being caught by a blonde teen with sky blue eyes. They exchanged a few words, and their kryptonian used his super-hearing to hear what was said, before telling them.
"I can't believe you didn't do a thing to defend yourself." That was the blonde.
"What?" The target asked. "Did you think they were out to kill me? They've had three weeks to try, and just then they could have killed me."
"Do you know who they are?" The blonde asked. "What they've done to us? The last time they got one of us, we never saw her again." The target's shoulders slumped, and he looked down. "Do you have any idea how important you are to us? Without her, you're our leader."
"You can fill in for me." The target said. "Just- just- please don't mention her. You know why I'm trying to take a vacation, cuz."
"We need you back." The blonde insisted. "We need direction, you know better than anyone what's about to happen. You know our kind and their abilities than I do."
"Then get to know them better." The target said as they drifted away. "Because I NEED her back. I can't do this alone!"
Hours later, when they'd returned to base, their boss was waiting, and he wasn't impressed.
"You didn't even try to retreive him?!" He asked, anger evident. "You know very well that without him, the Resistance is useless. These past three weeks, they've been slipping up in their raids."
"We did not know what the newcomer was capable of." Their alantean said. "It would have been foolish not engage without knowing what to expect. Had you granted our ninja access to your computers, we would have engaged."
"I just gave him access." Their boss said. "If I find him trying to plant a virus or bug in the system, I will gut him, just like his predessor. Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir." The ninja said, bowing his head. When he looked up, he brought up the computer. "He's demonstrated flight, as we already knew, and electric powers. He's called 'Jupiter'."
"Doesn't mean anything." Their martian said. "I mean, there's fifteen kids who call themselves 'Hermes', after all, and twenty who call themselves 'Mercury'."
"And about a hundred who call themselves 'Legacy'." Their ninja said. "What I find is odd is that they've named themselves after the greek/roman gods. For example, the fourty girls who call themselves 'Artemis', and their leader who calls herself 'Zeus'. Maybe within their community, the names are an identifier of sorts.
"In any case, our next strike will be suscessful." He concluded with a shrug. "Soon, the whole world will see the Light."
A/N So, thoughts or questions? You PJO fans should be able to figure out who the target, blonde kid, and the girl who was captured by the evil Team is. Also, I expect you to be able to figure out who the kids who call themselves 'Hermes', 'Mercury', 'Legacy', 'Artemis', and 'Zeus' are.
Also, I bet you can also guess where their base(s) are located. So, comments anyone?
Oreo out!
