Chapter 156 I am Legion

It's been a couple weeks since the whole Earth X invasion and since Thawn tried to change history but ultimately failed due to him underestimating the General and his Wife along with Unicron.

Right now Sean was standing outside Six-Shots cell.

"What do you want now?" Six-Shot asked before his cell opened up. "Huh?" Six-Shot asked.

"Giving you a choice. Put your mind and intelligence to good use in the Legion...Or stay in that cell for the next ten thousand years." Sean said.

"Definitely the first since like I said I wanted nothing to do with the Regime when I was brought back unlike ShockBlast." Six-Shot said walking out.

"Good. And you aren't the only ones who have turned a new leaf." Sean said looking to the right seeing Chase Young no longer having that evil look anymore. Sean had drained all the dark influence that had been infected inside him for years. Now he was back to his old self.

"Ah." Atomic Skull said stretching as he was let out. "Finally that cell was a pain." Atomic skull said. (I always liked the Atomic Skull from JLU since he resembled a Ghost Rider and he did save Hawkgirl in the final episode)

"Just remember you have to serve for the next five to ten years if you want a clean slate." Sean said.

"Sure no problem." Atomic Skull said before Sean walked to a cell with someone who knew all too well.

"Hello Mordo." Sean said making him face. "It's been a long time." Sean said.

"Yes. I am gonna assume you are hoping I can be redeemed." Morod said.

"No." Sean said surprising him. "You are never getting out of this cell. Not after what you pulled all those years ago. If I had known what you were capable of I never would have let you go." Sean said glaring at him making him sigh.

"I don't blame you. I let my anger and need for balance blind me." Mordo said placing his hands on the wall. "And I almost helped destroy an entire universe." Mordo said.

"The hell happened to you? Why did you do it?" Sean asked.

"I thought that perhaps if there were less sorcerers on Earth that things would be balanced out. In my anger and blind rage I didn't even realize what I was doing." Mordo said.

"You murdered men, women and children. I would say you knew exactly what you were doing and just didn't care. And then you sold out Outworld to Onaga who had a grudge against Shao Kahn for taking his throne. And you helped the Devil try to take my power and free will away. Only reason I won is because he underestimated me thinking I was broken and he's weaker when outside his domain." Sean said.

"That last part was not the deal. I had no idea he was gonna do that. I didn't even think you would be there." Mordo said.

"Doesn't matter. You are never leaving this cell alive or dead." Sean said walking away.

"Mordo was an old friend he made when studying magic wasn't he?" Diana asked Strange.

"Yeah. He knew him longer then I did. They were close till he betrayed us. I can't say I'm surprised by his reaction." Strange said.

"Hello Darling."

Sean stopped and saw a woman with short black hair blue eyes and white skin grinning at him.

"Hello Madame Rouge." Sean said making her smile.

"I don't suppose you would be a gentleman and let me out." Rouge said with a soft smile.

"Sorry Honey but your more of a flight risk then them. Your gonna have to wait a few months in here." Sean said making her pout cutely before he walked away.

"Is there something between you two?" Diana teased making him roll his eyes.

"Ah I mostly think she's being a big flirt. But there actually might be something there. Key word is Might." Sean said making her giggle.

Meanwhile

An armored police van was driving like crazy away from a large swarm of Police cars before a dead officer was thrown out the back by none other then Eddie Kim along with Drake. (Drake from Venom incase some forgot)

After Cadmus was taken over by the Legion Drake was put right back in prison awaiting a visit to the Electric Chair.

Driving was Lena Luthor with Balalaika beside her.

"FASTER!" Kim yelled.

"I am going as fast as this thing goes." Lena said.

"I am not going to get the death sentence now that the serum has worn out!" Kim yelled.

"LOOK OUT!" Balalaika yelled as they drove off an edge before crashing down.

"You call that driving?" Drake yelled.

"Shut up." Lena said as they rushed off before they came to a Dead end.

"Hands above your heads!" An Officer yelled making them do so before a portal opened up beneath them making them vanish while the police were shocked by this.

All four landed in a swamp.

"Where are we?" Kim asked.

"It's been a long time Kim."

Kim turned and saw.

"Grodd?" Kim said surprised.

"You two know each other?" Drake asked.

"You could say that. Kim may have been a member of the Old Regime for a short time but we saw each other every now and then." Grodd said.

"If your looking for us to join forget it." Lena said.

"I think you'll change your mind." Grodd said pressing a button before a giant facility appeared along with several surviving members of the Regime along with new members.

Meanwhile

"YOU IDIOTS!" Sean yelled at the officers who cowered in fear. "Why weren't we informed about the transfer?" Sean asked.

"That weren't as much a high risk as the others." The Captain said.

"Not a high risk? Consider yourself Demoted you fuckhead! OUT OF MY SIGHT!" Sean yelled making them run off. "Idiots!" Sean said.

"Calm down kid." Dillon said walking to him and the others. (Again from the original Predator movie and brought back to life incase anyone forgot)

"Dillon? What are you doing here?" Sean asked.

"Amanda suggested I become the new Liaison between the US and the Legion after the last one was killed by Hager when the War between Cadmus and the Legion started on the Watch Tower." Dillon said.

"Why hasn't he been discharged yet?" Sheyara asked.

"Unfortunately Hager has friends in high places. They're trying to throw the whole thing out but the best they can do is delay it for the next few months. Even they can't stop it with the mountain sized pile of evidence." Sean said knowing how desperate Hager wanted this whole case gone.

"I see. Still why weren't they under higher security?" Superman asked.

"All four had no powers and didn't seem like much of a risk. They were supposed to travel by separate vehicles to prevent them from acting together but the former captain didn't want to waste time getting them. You can see how that turned out." Dillon said making him snort.

"Dumbass. This has the Regime written all over it. Kim was a former member of the Original Regime before Vilgax took over. With him dead they must have a new leader looking for former members." Sean said not knowing that Vilgax was still alive. (He thinks he was killed during the final battle along Rawlings)

"But what about the others? They weren't part of the Regime." Sheyara said.

"But they need new members to replace the ones they lost." Sean said.

Meanwhile

"What is all this?" Lena asked as they walked the halls of the facility.

"Whats left of the Regime. A large number were captured or killed during the war on Olympus. I'm in charge of the Regime now that Vilgax is dead." Grodd said.

"Kinda dangerous to have a base on Earth." Drake said.

"The last place the Legion would expect to find us is right on their home turf. They'll be searching the whole universe looking for us. Plus this place is cloaked so them finding us is slim to none." Grodd said before they arrived at the command center where high ranking members were at.

"And where do we fit in this?" Lena asked.

"I want you three to join us of course. Correct me if I'm wrong but Kruger is responsible for your time in prison. Don't tell me you don't want payback?" Grodd said.

"You don't have an army any more. It's a death sentence to go against them now. It would take years if not a decade to get back to your original numbers." Balalaika said.

"Maybe not."

They turned and saw Rawlings with a heavily scared face.

"You? You survived against Kruger?" Kim asked.

"Barley. I lost my powers fighting him completely. But I'm alive and ready for payback." Rawlings said.

"So what do you want from us?" Lena asked.

"I need you and a few others to break into an abandoned island Joe Kruger used to place the most dangerous items during the second world war. Rumor has it there was one in particular that may give us the advantage we need to change our fate." Grodd said.

Meanwhile

"This new Metro tower is pretty cool." Kimiko said as she and her team walked around. (Kimiko and the others from Xiaolin Showdown)

"I like the Watch Tower better." Raimundo said.

"I'll take having my feet on my element." Clay said.

Sean watched from a distance and smirked.

"Still no word on the four?" Shayera asked.

"Nothing. I get the feeling we're not gonna see them for a long time." Sean said before looking and saw Fire talking with Ice making him grin.

"Why don't you go talk to her?" Shayera teased making him roll his eyes.

"Some other time. I got more important things to do." Sean said working on his computer before she grinned.

"Yeah your probably right. Besides I hear she's..." Shayera trailed off making him look at her. "Brazilian."

"HA HA. I am not weak in the knees like you may think when it comes to a hot woman." Sean said.

"If you won't talk to her...I will." Sheyara said before he dashed to her.

"Don't." Sean said making her laugh.

"Oh this is just too good. Are you nervous now?" Shayera teased.

"Hardly. I like it better when you all come to me like in the past." Sean said making her think on that since that was actually very true.

"Ok fair point on that." Sheyara said before an alert came up.

"What is it Lane?" Sean asked.

"We may have a situation. Theres a decommissioned facility on Blackhawk island." Lane said.

"The Blackhawks? Grandma used to tell me stories about those guys when I was a little kid. I didn't think they had an island." Sean said.

"Sadly all the original members are deceased and your grandfather is thinking of restarting the group like you did with SHIELD. Anyway the alarms at that facility are going off. Could be the place is coming apart or someone is there that shouldn't. Joe collected some pretty strange stuff after the war and kept it there for safe keeping." Lane said.

"We'll check it out. Kimiko! Your and your team are up." Sean said.

"But Omi isn't here." Clay said making him look at Fire making Sheyara grin.

"Hey Fire!" Sheyara said making him glare at her. "We got a mission. Lets go." Sheyara said as they left.

"You are so going to pay for that." Sean said making her grin.

"Maybe thats what I want." Sheyara said making him roll his eyes.

Meanwhile

Lena along with the Key and Dr. Polaris were on the island. (Who names themselves the Key? Wouldn't Key Master Suffice?)

Also with them was a man in black armor and a face mask on.

Lena was about to open the door when the Key stopped her.

"Allow me." The Key said blasting the door making it open.

"Very impressive." Lena said. (Picture her in Lex's gear)

"It's my specialty." The Key said.

"So I know about you and Polaris...But who's he?" Lena asked about the one in Black Armor.

"Him? Don't know. Grodd just introduced him a couple weeks ago. Didn't bother to tell us his name." The Key said.

Meanwhile

A Javilin was flying to the island with Hawkgirl flying it.

Sean however was inspecting Quints riffle to pass the time.

"Thats very old isn't it?" Fire asked.

"Sometimes the old ways are best in some ways. It may be old but it's effective with modern bullets. Plus it has sentimental value to it." Sean said.

"Oh I forgot. It belonged to your friend Quint the shark Hunter." Fire said before Hawkgirl turned the Jet making her fall into his lap making him grin.

'Why do I get the feeling she's trying to annoy me for some reason?' Sean thought before the Javlin shook violently.

"Whoa what the?" Clay asked before they spotted Zurg's wasps attacking them.

"I was hoping the Regime didn't have any droids left." Sean said before flying out and blasted them before Raimundo rushed out as well and used the wind to attack the others.

"We're going down!" Sheyara yelled grabbing Clay and Kimiko before flying out as did Fire before it crashed into the ocean.

"That was close." Kimiko said.

"You could lose a few pounds you know." Sheyara said to Clay.

"It's mostly muscle M'am." Clay said. (I don't know about that)

Arriving down they inspected the island.

"Hmm. Has the potential for a new base. Probably a second prison island." Sean said. (Which it does)

"I'd rather we not make a new one. Still have nightmares about the last one." Clay said.

"Oh get over it." Kimiko said.

"You were captured too you know." Clay said.

"Enough. Lets move." Sean said before a large number of turrets came online.

"Seismic Kick!" Clay yelled slamming his foot down before the turrets shot up before landing in the water.

"Ok enough distractions." Sean said.

Meanwhile

Lena was working on the door to the vault.

"Remind me again why you're not doing this?" Lena asked.

"Grodd's not testing us." The Key said before alarms went off making them look at the monitor showing Raimundo fighting against a robot shark while Sean was destroying a Robotic Squid with ease.

"We have company." The masked man said.

"Perfect. I could use some payback." Lena said pulling out a gun.

"Don't even think about it. Your job is to get the objective not to fight him. Besides we're not enough." The Masked man said making her glare before opening the door before she rushed inside and found a locker before blasting the lock off.

"Now where is it?" Lena asked before finding the door and opened it before grabbing some metal crate and left. "Ok we got what we came for. Lets move." Lena said.

"You three go on ahead. I'm gonna buy us some time." The masked man said placing an explosive down as his group left.

Kicking down the door Sean and the others rushed into the vault before seeing Lena and the others were gone.

"Oh you gotta be kidding me. We're too late?" Raimundo asked before he heard a beeping sound making him look before moving a box and yelled in shock seeing a large bomb that was active set to go off in 3 minutes.

"Take care of this. I'm gonna look around real quick." Sean said rushing off to find Lena and the others.

The Masked man made it out of the facility when he heard a gun cock.

"Don't move." Sean said aiming his riffle at him.

"Been a long time Sean."

"Do I know you?" Sean asked before he turned around before removing his mask making him widen his eyes in shock. "Brandon?" Sean asked. (Picture John Cena)

"Like I said been a long time." Brandon said holding a detonator in hand. "Care to make a deal? Let me go and I deactivate the bomb. It's big enough to level this whole island. And I know you hate the idea of good history being lost." Brandon said making him glare before lowering his weapon. "No one knows you more then me. Not even Russo and Talbot." Brandon said before opening a portal and left.

Sean sighed before heading back to the others.

"Why'd it shut down?" Clay asked tapping it.

"Don't do that." Sheyara said bonking him.

"Must be a fake." Raimundo said.

"It's real." Sean said walking in. "I uh...Ran into a new member of the Regime. Agreed to deactivate the bomb if I let him leave. Not about to let good history be wiped clean." Sean said before going to the vault and found one of the locks opened.

"What was int here?" Fire asked making him raise an eyebrow.

Meanwhile

Grodd waited patiently before Lena and the others walked in before she handed him the crate.

"Ah. This is perfect." Grodd said opening it before pulling out a strange book.

"Care to tell us what this is?" Lena asked.

"The book of destiny. Has the power to alter reality and history. With this...We can change the outcome of the war we lost...Wait...Wheres the key!" Grodd asked looking for it.

"What key?" Lena asked.

"The book can't be opened without the key! Joe Kruger clearly hid it somewhere else!" Grodd yelled enraged.

"Yeah...That sounds just like him." Brandon said walking away.

Meanwhile

"I am most sorry for your failure my friends. If I was there you would have succeeded." Omi said bragging about himself making them frown.

"And you wonder why your low rank compared to us." Kimiko said making him widen his eyes before laughing sheepishly.

"What are you doing anyway?" Raimundo asked Sheyara.

"Looking through the security tapes to see what happened." Sheyara said before she found the one with Sean and Brandon before Sean let him go.

Omi however frowned at this and left.

"Why would he let him leave like that?" Kimiko asked.

"He has his reasons for everything." Sheyara said knowing there was a reason for it.

Sean sighed as he looked at the Earth before he dodged Omi's strikes as he attacked him.

"You are a traitor!" Omi yelled drawing attention.

"Excuse me?" Sean asked raising an eyebrow.

"You let the enemy get away willingly! You do not deserve your position as leader!" Omi said.

"Oh you're talking about me letting Brandon go." Sean said.

"Whoa Wait! Brandon? As in..." Jesse tried to say before Sean glared at him making him hold his hands up in surrender. "I'm just saying." Jesse said.

"You do not deserve your position as leader for allowing the enemy to escape." Omi said.

"Thats funny coming from you. Correct me if I'm wrong but you worked with Chase Young dozens of times before that darkness was purged from him." Sean said. (Sometimes I can't stand this kid because he thinks he's perfect in every way. Pisses me off)

"He's got you there partner." Clay said.

"That was different. The Regime are far more evil. You will step down and I will take over!" Omi yelled before Sean kicked him into a wall making him grunt in pain before Sean stepped on him hard.

"You better watch your mouth punk." Sean said glaring at him.

"Whoa easy." Raimundo said pulling him back.

"Omi, you can't just shout out accusations without knowing all the facts." Kimiko said.

"But he..." Omi tried to say.

"Look. I let Brandon go but I had my reasons." Sean said.

"Cause you are just as evil!" Omi yelled.

"No...Because he's my cousin." Sean said shocking them.

"Oh." Omi said before Sean walked away.

"Nice going dumbass." Jesse said.

Later

Sean sat in the old barn while holding an old photo of him David and Brandon when they were still on Good terms. Brandon was 8 years older then him and unlike with Ludlow they never had any issues till an incident.

"You never said you had another Cousin." Diana said walking in before sitting next to him.

"It's...complicated. Brandon's father was my father's older brother by 4 years. Gabriel Kruger named after a family member who won the War against the British during the Revolution. My Dad was named after A family member who was killed by an Arrogant British colonel." Sean said. (Basically the Patriot Movie in this story. I might do that)

"So what happened?" Diana asked.

"Uncle Gab took my father's place on some mission when I was 8 years old. He didn't make it and Brandon blamed us for what happened. Things were never the same after that he just lashed out at us. Then when I started high school two months after he...Started trouble and we got into a fight which was pretty messy. Never saw him again until today." Sean said.

"Theres always hope for him." Diana said.

"I'm hoping. Unlike Ludlow, Brandon is not beyond the point of no return." Sean said as they left.

Later

"Ok so the Regime is clearly gathering new allies thats clear." Sean said.

"Clearly. The Key and Dr. Polaris weren't originally part of the Regime when Vilgax was in charge." Lane said.

"So clearly someone else is in charge now. Someone who's desperate for new recruits no matter how small." Sean said.

"My money is on Grodd. He's the only one who's smart enough to lead them now that he's gone." Eiling said before Joe Kruger rushed in.

"We have a problem. I know what was taken from the Island." Joe said showing a hologram of the book of Destiny. "It's called the book of destiny. It has the power to rewrite both reality and history." Joe said.

"Why was something that dangerous placed there and not here?" Lane asked.

"The island was only known to a few. Fortunately..." Joe trailed off as he pulled the key that was needed to open it out of his jacket. "It won't do any good without this." Joe said.

"Always plan ahead right dad?" Tom asked making him grin.

"I placed the book there for safe keeping but kept the key so no one would ever know where it was." Joe said.

"Why didn't you just destroy it?" Ross asked.

"We tried. It's impossible to destroy period. So all we could do was hide it away. Keep the book in one location and key always on the move." Joe said.

Authors Note: I know I said there would be a lemon with Hawkgirl but then I decided to save that for something special. Next Chapter will have a lemon...With Tala though. Now yes Sean's Cousin on his father's side of the family is with the Regime...But will it stick is the question. Next Chapter Chaos at the Center of the Earth. Also I've decided to skip Predators and The Mummy since I honestly just want this to end and they aren't as important at the other chapters. Though I may change my mind so be prepared. Read, Review, Fav and Follow. REVIEW MY LOYAL FANS! SEE YA! Oh and one more thing I'm thinking of making a new Justice League story inspired by Rise of the Planet of the Apes with an X men crossover. Tell me your thoughts on that.
