Welcome to Jump City Part 1

(Hatton Corners, Rhode Island. Goat Island Penitentiary. March 3rd, 13:03)

At the small town, a small prison was standing over the seas. There weren't many prisoners, but being a small town, that's to be expected.

Sitting in a cell, sighing as he looked outside, was a middle aged man who was trying to read when a thug mopping came by. "Hey Stikk. How ya holding up?" He asked as the man just shrugs.

"Fine I guess…still got another 90 years in this hellhole." The man said, sitting up. He was revealed to be a thin man with shaggy salt-and-pepper hair and emerald green eyes, looking up with a sigh.

"Heh…kind of harsh. After all, wasn't it just five kids who put you away?" the thug asked with a laugh, as Stikk just glared at this.

"Those 'kids' were the partners of those super heroes. It was Robin, Kid Flash, Speedy, Wonder Girl and Aqualad who put me in here." Stikk said as the thug just laughed at this.

"Yeah, only after you decided to kidnap every teenager in town to be your servants for…what again? Pigeon feathers?" The thug only laughed as he continued to mop as Stikk growled in anger as he sat back down.

"If only I had my staff…then I'd make everyone in this damn town pay…how many years has it been since I got locked up in here?" He asked in anger a chuckle is heard.

"About…8 years, give or take." A voice said, making Stikk look up in shock. "And boy, those 8 years were eventful…Robin left Gotham and became a solo act after the Dark Knight got a replacement, Speedy got hooked on drugs-though with that name I don't blame him-and left Star City, Aqualad left Atlantis after his king's son died, Kid Flash is now heading to collage and Wonder Girl is looking for work outside of Themyscira." The voice explained as Stikk looked around.

"How do you know so much about them? Who is there!?" Stikk asked in anger as he got up and looked at the mirror across from his seat, where he saw someone appear in the reflection.

"I am Neron." Said the man in the mirror, reforming behind him as he appeared to be a pale green humanoid with pitch-green eyes, shaggy blonde hair tied into a tentacle-like ponytail and wearing dark green and black armor with a flowing black cape, making Stikk turn to him in shock. "And I have an offer for you…"

"What's that?" asked Stikk, looking at him with fear as Neron chuckled darkly.

"I only wish for you to have great power. You control the skies with your staff, yes? Why not have the heavens at your fingertips? Have the power to be able to summon large hail at your beck and call? Or the ability to summon hurricanes at your own command? All it takes is one thing; your soul. Do you agree?" He asked Stikk looked down…but glared ahead.

"Yeah…if it means I can finally get some recognition once more." He said as Neron smirked as his eyes flashed, retrieving a cane with feathers on it, as the feathers turned jet-black in his grip and handed it to Stikk, who glowed as he laughed evilly.

"They are in Jump City, California. Now go, my young friend, go and take your revenge." Neron said with a laugh as he vanished as his eyes glowed bright white.

"But first…my uniform…" Twister said as he raised his staff as the wind suddenly began to pick up, making people scream out.

(Jump City, California. Murakami High School. March 3rd, 10:03)

At the high school, a young woman was relaxing at this time as she felt something off as she heard women giggling as she looked to see one of her classmates was smirking.

"Don't worry, ladies, there's enough of the Garfield to go around." He said with a smirk. The teen in question was around her age but was different in appearance; his skin was a emerald shade of green, his ears were pointed , dark green eyes and hair and wearing a simple yellow t-shirt under a red jacket and a pair of jeans with blue and red tennis shoes.

"So you're really green, Gar?" one of the girls asked as he nods with a smirk. "Though what's with the character you play? How did you get those cool special effects?"

"Trade secret, babe." Said Garfield with a chuckle. "And yes, the green skin is all natural. It's a skin condition, you see. Nothing bad, just made my skin an odd shade is all."

The girl frowned, as her pale gray skin was noticeable with her neck-length black hair tucked behind her ear as she read from a book, wearing a simple dark blue hoodie and a pair of jeans. She frowned as she looked at him with her blue-violet eyes. 'He says that it's just a skin condition, but he's hiding something…an emotional energy that I can sense…but for now, I need to focus on that odd energy…'

The girl concentrated as her eyes shined brightly. A gem in her forehead shined a bit as a energy formed out of her and flew off as she saw a flash of Neron's face and then showed images of a tsunami hitting the city at night, making her eyes widen. 'A great evil…is coming…but I sense in this city great heroes…but will they be enough? No…not against Neron.' She frowned as a girl looked at her.

"Hey, it's that weird Roth girl…" She said to a friend as Garfield looked at her curiously.

Rachel frowned as she concentrated, her eyes shining a bit as she watched out as Garfield shook his head a bit, everyone unaware of a faint energy seeping out of her and out the window to find people who can help.

(Mid-town Jump City. 10:20)

A bank was in the middle of being robbed as a man wearing an all-white outfit walked out, chuckling a bit as smoke came out of the building. "Heh, the security here is poor. Of course, a city short of heroes is easy pickings for us villains."

"And that's a problem, bud." A voice said as a blue disc flew at him, making the man go back a bit. "Andre le Blanc, the infamous jewel thief. You moved here because of a weaker police presence. Am I right?"

"Who iz zere? Show yourself!" Said Andre as a kick came down, knocking him back as he groaned, looking up in shock."Wait…weren't you…?"

"I'm not Robin anymore…a new kid's been around for a couple years now. I'm Nightwing." Said the voice, revealing that he is a 21-year-old young man with short black hair with a faint curve in the bangs, a curved black domino mask over his eyes. He was wearing a dark blue jacket-like costume with a stylized bird with yellow feathers on the front and a hood over his head and a pair of black boots and dark blue pants, eskima sticks on his side and odd-looking slots on his sleeves.

"Quite a garish costume, my young friend." Andre said with a glare as he got out a small explosive and threw it, but saw Nightwing duck around as he glared at the man.

"I think you mean 'friends' plural." Nightwing pointed out as a yellow zoom came in as a red arrow nearly hit him as a young man wearing a red and black hoodie glared at him, a bow in hand.

"Sorry, but now you're against not just Nightwing, but Arsenal as well." Said the young man, his tone dark as a clicking tongue is heard as a young man wearing a yellow and red jumpsuit with a red lightning bolt on his chest walked in, adjusting his goggles as he fiddled with a gray belt.

"Sorry bud that name is still not that good…" The red haired young man said as Andre noticed his belt was missing as he looked at them.

"Are ALL the old sidekicks here to fight me?" Andre asked as he saw the water fountain near by suddenly exploded and went around him as a young man wearing a dark blue jumpsuit walked in, glaring.

"Yeah, basically. We had…some disagreements with our mentors a couple years back and wanted to distance ourselves a bit. So this coast would be a good place for the four of us to start our solo careers." The young man said, glaring at this. "Also…just so it's known, I'm called 'Tempest, not 'Aqualad'."

"N-Now, lets be calm about this!" said Andre as the four young men smirked at this as they all cracked their knuckles as he gulped a bit.

A few minutes later, the outcold Andre was taken in by the police as the four heroes watched him go as they nod to the police officer. "Thank you for your assitance, Nightwing. We do owe a lot from you four with helping us with the crime issues we are going through."

"Still having issues with getting a staff, right Captain?" Nightwing asked as the man just sighed at this.

"Yeah…" said the man with a sigh, but hten nods. "But we got talk with the folks up in New York and they're sending over this young guy from there. Said that he wanted to help out high-crime areas while he's in collage. Some sort of…Cyborg, I think he said he was?"

"Heh, sounds like we'll have some back up. See ya, Captain." Nightwing with a nod as the four headed off, with Nightwing and Arsenal using a grappling hook to get to the top of a building.

"Come on, I heard Donna is coming into town! Maybe we can call her up and tell her to meet us in civies." Kid Flash said, speeding after the two as Tempest nods, following suit by jumping after them. Tempest frowned when he felt an odd sensation hit him, which made him raise an eyebrow in confusion.

Arsenal and Nightwing both felt something as well, the two looking at each other curiously but shrugged, unaware of a dark presence going through the city and towards the air to at least get some attention.

(At the woods outside of Jump City. 11:06)

The forest was a relatively peaceful place, great for hiking and for seeing the sights. Though a certain someone wouldn't agree 100% to the idea of it being a 'relaxing' idea as someone was currently on the run.

In the woods, a young girl was panting as she was running through some thick brushes of plants, looking behind her to see several men dressed in black and orange armor, she herself wearing a simple black t-shirt and a pair of khakis with a pair of yellow-tinted goggles around her neck and brown climbing boots and gloves.

"Get away from me!" She screamed as she ran away, her back-length blonde hair flowing in the wind as her blue eyes looked around in panic as she hid behind a cave as the two men looked around before heading out. She sighed in relief, panting a bit as her eyes flashed yellow for a few seconds.

A dark aura went near her, making her eyes look curiously towards the city before she frowned, but shook it off as she went to a cave-like terrain to hide out, noticing storm clouds starting to creep towards the city, raising an eyebrow.

A bus on the road over the cliff side was heading to the city, as a man was relaxing. He was wearing a hoodie and a pair of sweat pants, having metallic boots as he adjusted his hood, his eye shining a bit under the shadows of his hood. He shook his head a bit as a faint darkness went over him, making him look up to the sky curiously.

(In the sky over California. 10:55)

"GAH!" said a male voice as a green energy fist sent him flying back, the short reptilian creature groaning as a red haired young man wearing a Green Lantern-inspired jersey and black pants with green and white tennis shoes, his hair reaching his forehead with his sideburns cut.

"Alright punks, I'm taking the prisoners to the escape pods, OK? Unless you want Guy Gardner to kick your collective tailbones." He said with a smirk as a group of people were waiting, as a red haired woman who was about Nightwing's age walked up, her face obscured by an odd-looking helmet.

"Why even give them a chance? Destroy them now." The woman said with a scowl as Guy gave a shrug.

"Sorry, but the Psions here are the Guardian's handiwork. I may not be the most calm of guys, but last I checked, I don't go around blasting guys I don't like. I rough them up, sure, but I don't try to murder them." Guy pointed out to the woman with a flat look. "Look, I don't know why they got you in that get up, but I think you should head back home. Come on." He said, putting an orb around the various aliens and got them to the escape pods. "Just put in the coordinates you want to go on an you'll be on your way back home. I'll get Lantern escorts on the ready."

They all nod as several aliens went into the pods as the woman just sighed under her helmet and went into the pod herself, pressing some buttons, unaware of a dark aura going through the ship, making her shiver a bit. She looked around and then to the ground…and nods as she pressed some buttons and was the first off.

"What the-HEY!" Guy said as he saw her heading down towards the surface. "YOU CAN'T GO THAT WAY!" he yelled but it fell on deaf ears as the woman was heading down towards earth. "…I am SO dead." Guy said flatly, facepalming a bit, unaware of a dark cloud going towards a coastal city.

(Later that day…)

(Jump City's Pizza Corner. 16:04)

The four young men were in civilian clothing as they laughed along with a young woman who was closer to Wally in age. She had short black hair tied in to a ponytail that reached the back of her neck, a simple gray t-shirt under a brown jacket and a pair of jeans as she took a slice of pizza.

"Wait, so you're all here too? What are the odds of that?" asked Donna with a laugh as the other four just nod in agreement.

"Heh, yeah. Well…I kind of helped ol' Dicky and Roy when they moved out after some…tension. I was coming here for collage since the college here is one of the best robotics collages in the states." Wally shrugged.

"I'm mainly here because I wanted to be as far from Atlantis as possible for…personal reasons." Garth sighed aloud as Donna looked at him with concern.

"So what happened with you and Bruce, Dick?" asked Donna in concern as Dick just sighed, shrugging at this.

"he and I…kinda had a bit of a falling out a couple years back…went on the road after that and met up with some assassin that knew Bruce way back when…Deathstroke, I think he said his name was." Said Dick with a sigh.

"And as for me and Ollie…lets just say that we are going through personal issues and I rather not get into it." Roy stated flatly as Donna nods, looking at Wally with concern as he looked concerned as well.

Wally cleared his throat as he says, "SO…anyway, the four of us met up here a couple months back and we started helping out the local authorities. We told them we used to work with some big named heroes-if our names weren't already indicators of that-and started helping out."

"That's good. I wouldn't mind getting back into the swing." Said Donna, revealing her silver bracelets. "I'm still thinking of changing my name. How does 'Amazonia' sound?"

"…Eh, sounds too old fashioned." Said Wally with a shrug. "How about…'Troia'…a lot better than 'Arsenal' here." Wally chuckled as Roy gave a look, thankful that they are far away from other costumers.

Dick chuckled at this, but noticed clouds starting to form overhead, making him raise an eyebrow curiously as he looked prepared as he noticed something…unnatural about the clouds.

"Guys…we may need to get into uniform…now." Dick said, as the others looked up to the clouds and nod as Dick wrote down a check on the table as they ran out, Wally zooming away as the group was suddenly swept up as Nightwing and Arsenal were now dressed as Wally got a ring out and sped forward, putting on his costume.

Garth glowed as his costume formed over him in a form of water ash e nods to Donna, who spun in a circle as a dark red and yellow armor appeared as she smirked. The five glared to the air as people were backing up in fear as they saw a tornado suddenly went over the five, making the five heroes cry out as they were brought up to a rooftop, making the five groan.

"Hello…Sidekicks." Growled a voice as the five glared up into the air as Dick went wide eyed.

"Wait…Stikk?" asked Dick in shock as they saw him come down, glaring at them as his body had a faint gray tone to it and dark red eyes, but wearing a black and red shirt and pants combo with a pioneer hat and a pitch-black staff.

"Wait, that tornado guy from Rhode Island? Didn't we kick his butt back when we were rookies?" asked Arsenal with a raised eyebrow as Donna glared at this.

"Don't underestimate him, Arsenal." Nightwing said, glaring as he got his eskima sticks out as Twister just chuckled.

"Cute attire, kids. Still playing in your little playsuits even as when you're older, heh? Even after 8 years in that HELL HOLE you decided to leave me in?" Stikk growled as his eyes shined darkly as the sky began to twist around, unaware of a figure hiding in the shadows when needed.

"Well, you must've been practicing." Roy said as he got his bow and arrow at the ready and fired, the tip blinking before a large hailstone knocked it out of the air, as multiple hailstones were flying at them from the air.

"Get behind me!" said Donna as she flew forward and began to block them with her bracelets, grunting from the shattering ice's impacts on her wrists. Kid Flash sped forward, his fist vibrating as he got it ready before a sudden rainstorm came down, making Wally looked around but went wide eyed as he sped off to avoid a lightning bolt.

"OK, he couldn't do this before…all he could do last time was make wind." Roy mutters, not liking this as the wind was pushing him back as a vortex was starting to form.

"That's right…and now to get rid of you in one swoop…my revenge is here!" Twister laughed evilly as Tempest tired to concentrate to get some water to help them but he and his friends were swept up into the vortex, all five yelling out in shock at this. "No one can stop me now!"

"Then call me 'No One.'" A distorted voice said as Twister's red eyes gained confusion as he turned to see a pair of pure-white eyes in the shadows, glaring as she floated out, as Twister growled.

"Who are you?" Asked Twister as the young woman came out, wearing a flowing dark blue dress that showed off her modest but still developing form with long gray legs on display with black shoes, long gloves under her bird-esque hood and a faint noticeable bit of her thin-but-firm chin and nose, pure white eyes seeing in the darkness.

"You can just call me 'Raven'." The teen said calmly as her eyes narrowed. "And you are not welcome here, servant of Neron."

"So, you know of my benefactor? Then I shall destroy you as I am going to them!" said Twister as he moved the tornado closer to her as Raven just glared.

"Sorry, but I can't let you do this…" Raven said as she concentrates as she whispers, "Azarath…Metrion…ZENTHOS!" Suddenly a screech is heard as Twister went wide eyed, as did the young heroes ast hey watched a large, shadowy bird-like astral being come out with a thunderous screech befoe it's talon slashed through the vortex, freeing the five as she glared at Twister, her astral beast giving a faint coo.

Twister growled as his eyes glowed with rage. "I. WILL. NOT. BE. BESTED. BY. A .CHILD. AGAIN!" He roared in anger as his body started to gain a more mutated form, taking a more bestial state as he took off with the wind to give him flght. "Be ready, heroes…for now expect this ENTIRE CITY to experience the worst storm imaginable by the next morning!" He laughed as the six put their hands up as they watched him leave.

"We need to figure out where he's going." Said Roy with a growl, but Raven stopped him.

"If you go as you are now, you won't last long…I sensed his presence an that's why I came here." Raven said calmly, looking at them with a stoic gaze.

Nightwing nods as he says, "…Thanks miss, but you should leave this to professional heroes. This is kinda above you."

"Uh, Night? She DID just save us…" Kid Flash pointed out as Raven looked at them with a calm gaze.

"When I sensed him, I thought it over and I knew you five would be able to fight him, but it's clear you need help…luckily, I anticipated that you would need aid and I found four others whom can help you." Raven said as her eyes flashed, revealing images of four individuals; two girls and two boys.

"…Where are they then?" asked Roy, raising an eyebrow at the odd assortment.

"Would you believe me if I told you…they were within the 20-mile radius of this city?" Raven asked in a calm tone as they looked at each other curiously but nods at this.

"Alright…we'll get to these guys…" said Nightwing, looking at her with a raised eyebrow as Raven nods.

"Good…each of you will need to do it one at a time however…as I am unsure if a large crowd will help. And be quick…I caught a glimpse of his mind…his plan is to kill this entire city…I will need time to track him however so I know where he plans to attack." They all nod at this, as Raven takes them up with the large raven, who screeched as she went through the sky.

(Jump City Harbor. Wolfman Island. 18:09)

Landing on an island off the coast of the city, Stikk growled as he looked at Jump City as his eyes glowed darkly. "Time to put myself in the true villain area…this time I shall show them that THIS 'Joke villain' is NOT a laughing matter!' his staff was raised up as the sky began to darken as he chuckled darkly.

Neron watched curiously at this sight, but stayed silent as he chuckled. "This should prove interesting…" Said Neron with an amused smirk.

End of Part 1

Well, I hope this was a good first chapter in this spin off. And yes, many of these costumes here are kinda inspired by their classic designs. This is the past, after all XP But anyway, please let me know what you think and please Read, Review and Suggest away!
