Chapter 6 - The Capes Are Coming

East Side of Star City Near Police Precinct

"We can do this one of two ways, Cue-ball. You can surrender now, or surrender later...after we mop the floor with you!" Green Arrow states confidently to their unknown foe, and gives a side wink, and a grin to his partner Black Canary. Saitama begins to raise a metal gloved hand to scratch the back of his neck, and Green Arrow takes this movement as an aggressive act, and shoots one of his Electro-Arrows at Saitama. Green Arrow, and Black Canary are going in slow motion to Saitama, as he examines the trick arrow from all sides, and plucks it out of the air with his thumb, and index fingers.

Green Arrow is momentarily stunned by this, but recovers quickly to load two arrows into his bow, and narrows his eyes behind his black domino mask. Canary doesn't stay idle, and lets loose her Canary Cry at Saitama sending a potent sonic attack in his direction. Saitama moves with lightning speed, and comes up behind Black Canary, and moves her by the shoulders. Before she realizes what's happening, Saitama re-directs her attack at her partner, Green Arrow. Oliver is thrown off his feet by the powerful sonics, and cuffing his bleeding ears with his gloved hands in pain.

"Arrow!" Black Canary shouts in worry, and narrows her eyes at the new presence behind her. Canary performs a spinning back fist at her opponent, but finds that there's no one there. Canary does a quick scan of the area, and her eyes widen when she sees their adversary has taken Oliver's quiver from behind his back, while Arrow is temporarily out of commission. Saitama is now emptying out the arrows from Green Arrow's quiver, and examining them with a critical eye.

Saitama picks up one of the arrows that has a large boxing glove at the tip, and has a mystified look on his face. "How would this even work? The glove should be too heavy to be able to shoot it from a bow." Saitama stated mostly to himself, and drops the arrow quickly when Canary begins to attack him directly. Black Canary is growing increasingly frustrated that none of her punches, and kicks are connecting with her foe.

"What? All you can do is dodge, Baldy?! Are you too scared to fight me?!" Saitama has a tick mark forming on his bald head, and surprises Canary by digging his metal gloved hands into the street's pavement, and lifting out a large chunk of the street in front of her. This causes Black Canary to lose her balance temporarily, and fall on her backside. Saitama tosses the large chunk of rock, and asphalt effortlessly away. Saitama turns his head, and looks down at Canary with a heavy oppressive aura with his face shadowed, and only his eyes visible.

"No, but you're making it difficult for me to hold my strength back." Canary shivers slightly at the sight of Saitama, and the feeling of dread that she's experiencing. Black Canary is able to breathe again, when the menacing aura lessens, with Saitama taking a step back from her. Saitama waves his left metal gloved hand at Canary, and smiles slightly in greeting.

"Hello, my name is Saitama. I'm a B-Class Hero from the Hero Association." Saitama points over to the still form of Black Mask with his metal gloved index finger, and has a slight frown on his face. "He was alive, and screaming up a storm before we arrived here..." Before Saitama can go into a more detailed explanation, he had to dodge out of the way of exploding arrows shot at him by a revived Green Arrow.

"Get away from her!" Green Arrow shouts loudly, and starts firing off arrow after arrow at Saitama, who casually dodges them with ease. Once he is far enough away from Canary, Saitama begins to bat the incoming arrows away with the back of his metal gloved hands. Arrows once again draws back the string on his bow, and sends a flash-grenade arrow at Saitama with a ten second timer. The flash-grenade goes off, and blankets the area with a blinding light. Arrow uses this time to retrieve Black Canary, and lifts her to her feet to find cover behind some parked cars along the street.

Green Arrow uses his right gloved index finger to push a button on the Justice League communicator device located in his left ear. "Mr. Terrific...we've got a situation down here, and need some backup! Who do you have up there in the Tower?" Oliver takes a peek over the car they're using as cover, and watches the intense light caused by his flash-grenade arrow begins to dim.

"I'm currently monitoring your location via the Justice League satellite, Arrow. Most of the League members are several star systems away dealing with an alien invasion orchestrated by Mongul, and the reptilian race called the Gordanians. I can only spare a few Leaguers, and...Arrow, to your left!" Mr. Terrific warned Arrow over his comm-line with a shout. Green Arrow, and Black Canary both gawped at who was currently crouched next to them with his metal gloved hands on his knees, and a small grin on his face.

"Who are you talking to, Arrow-san?" Saitama asks in curiosity, with his bald head tilted slightly to the right. Green Arrow, and Black Canary quickly sprint away from behind the parked car, and into the open area of the street to get some fighting room. Three new sources of light gain the two Leaguers' attention, and Green Arrow grins to Black Canary in relief.

"Looks like the cavalry has arrived!" The teleport from the Watchtower was successful, and three meta-humans now walk over to join their fellow Leaguers.

The first to approach them is the superhero known as Atom-Smasher! He is a large muscular man standing at 7 feet 6 inches tall wearing a red, and blue costume with an atom symbol imprinted on the chest area. He has dark blue forearm guards, and also wears a dark blue mask with white eye slits.

The second man is looking around for their opponent, while walking towards Arrow, and Canary. He's six foot one in height, and is bald with white skin, and black eyes. Sections of his body are made up of different elements. He is the shape-changing elemental hero called Metamorpho!

The third, and final member of the group was currently examining the body of Black Mask. He *tsks* slightly, and shakes his head causing his large bang of red hair above his forehead to sway back, and forth. The man has a thin build, and is wearing a purple, and white costume with an "EM" insignia on the left side of his chest area. He is the elastic skinned superhero, The Elongated Man!

Elongated Man is moving Black Mask's head around, and then checks his arms, and chest area. He starts touching the base of Black Mask's neck, and takes on a thinking pose, as he's kneeling down next to the body. "Hmm...There's no signs of blunt force trauma, and there doesn't seem to be any damage to his neck, or spinal area. We'll need to get him back to the Watchtower for a more extensive examination." Atom-Smasher pounds his fists together, causing a loud smacking sound to be heard, and grunts derisively.

"That's a waste of time, and resources. Mask got what was coming to him! Now, where is this guy that has you wetting your long johns, Arrow?" Atom-Smasher folds his large arms over his chest, and taps his booted foot impatiently. Green Arrow walks up to Smasher, and gets into his personal space, and stares up at him with an annoyed look.

"I don't think I heard you right...care to repeat that?!" Black Canary quickly rushed over, and got in between the two heroes, and pushed them away from each other to avoid a fight.

"Guys! We're on the same team, let's start acting like it! *sigh*" Canary gave Atom-Smasher a look that said *back off*, and turns her head to stare at her partner, and shakes her head in the negative. Arrow grumbles to himself, but eventually backs down. Atom-Smasher sneers at Arrow behind his mask, and huffs loudly.

"Uuuhhh...guys? Was this the one that's been giving you trouble?" Metamorpho questioned to the rest of the team, and points to Saitama, who is moving around Metamorpho staring at him with analyzing eyes. Saitama starts poking him in the rib area with his index finger, getting Metamorpho's right eye twitching in annoyance. Saitama jumps back, and has a small grin on his face, and gives Metamorpho a metallic thumbs up with his left gloved hand.

"You look very cool." Saitama points out, and his bald head starts to gleam in the light, with extra shine coming off the top of his head. Metamorpho is taken aback by Saitama's declaration, and rubs the back of his bald head with his left hand in slight embarrassment.

"Ahhh...thanks?" Atom-Smasher growls, and starts growing until he's twenty-five feet tall, and storms over to Saitama, making spider-web cracks into the pavement with his angry stomps. Saitama turns his head lazily to look up at the large fist coming fast, and directly down at him.

Atom-Smasher connects with his punch, and the impact causes shock-waves that throw Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Metamorpho off their feet. Elongated Man stretches himself around a lamppost to keep from being knocked away by the impact from Atom-Smasher's punch.

When the dust finally clears, all the other Leaguers recovered enough to see Saitama with only some of his upper body, and head sticking out from being driven like a tent spike inside the very street. Canary, Metamorpho, Elongated Man, and Green Arrow all have looks of shock, and Arrow's eyes are wide underneath his black domino mask, when he notices not a shred of remorse coming from Atom-Smasher.

"What the hell are you doing, Smasher! Are you trying to kill this guy?!" Green Arrow said to Smasher in outrage, and motions out angrily with his arm towards Saitama, who is still not moving.

Atom-Smasher chuckles darkly, and wipes his right index finger under his nose. "You wanted help, I got the job done. That's all there is to it, Robin Hood." Green Arrow is about to shout some choice words back at Atom-Smasher, when the group of heroes all hear a loud yawn coming from Saitama.

Atom-Smasher grits his teeth at Saitama's bored look that he's giving him, and crouches down to poke him roughly on his bald head.

"You want some more? The beating I just gave you not enough, Chrome-dome? Did you lose most of your brain cells along with the hairs on your head?!" Saitama gave Atom-Smasher a dull look, and to the surprise of the others freed one of his arms from its confinement. Saitama tries to use the pinky finger on his left hand to dig for nose gold, but the metal gloves on his hand prevented it. Saitama stares down at the glove, and sighs.

"These new accessories are a real pain in the ass." Atom-Smasher is livid, and starts punching Saitama even further down into the pavement, and he keeps smashing down with his closed fists until giant cracks appear all over the road, and Saitama is now nowhere to be seen.

"There! Did you like that, funny guy?! Huh?! What's that? I can't hear you!" Smasher said with arrogance in his voice, and then stares into the hole made by Saitama's descending body. Smasher blinks behind his mask, as he notices a glint of light coming from the bottom of the hole. The other Leaguers have looks of anger, and disappointment on their faces. Green Arrow draws back the string on his bow, with an explosive arrow aimed at Atom Smasher.

"Step away, Kid...slowly." Green Arrow warns, and Canary gets into a fighting stance, with Metamorpho, and Elongated Man flanking Smasher on the other side. Smasher stares with confusion at his fellow Leaguers, and grinds his teeth together.

"What's your deal, Arrow? You gonna spank me for playing too rough?" Green Arrow shakes his head at Smasher, and narrows his green eyes at him.

"He was down, and not putting up a fight...but you attacked him anyway. That's not what heroes do." Elongated Man moves over cautiously to Atom-Smasher with an uneasy look on his features. Atom-Smasher stares down at him, and Elongated Man motions for him to step aside with large stretched out gloved hands.

"Please move aside, Albert. I can stretch myself down inside the hole to retrieve him...if the man is even still alive..." Elongated Man gave Smasher a moment to let his statement sink in. Elongated Man stops suddenly when he thinks he hears movement from within the hole. He stretches out his right ear to make it larger, and kneels down onto the pavement, and puts his large ear against the asphalt. "I can hear something..." Before Elongated Man can continue, the area is rocked with what feels like an earthquake. Atom-Smasher nearly loses his balance, but glances down, and can make out something coming up fast out of the hole.

"I'VE GOT ASPHALT IN MY PANTS!" Came the loud cry from Saitama, and he soars up out of the hole to deliver a thunderous uppercut punch to Atom-Smasher sending him skyward at extreme high velocity. Atom-Smasher's jaw is shattered with Smasher's tongue hanging out lifelessly, and the bottom of his blue mask is waving about with pieces of jaw-bone inside. The unconscious body of Atom-Smasher careens into the side of a building with authority, and puts a massive hole in the wall where he landed. Saitama lands back down onto the street, and starts hopping up, and down shaking his legs about. "Now the pieces are in my boots, and I can't get them out!" Saitama is stilling down on the street, and trying to yank his feet free of the metal boots he's wearing.

"Oh, God! Mr. Terrific, Emergency transport! Lock on to Smasher's signature, and get him back to the Watchtower! Now!" Green Arrow shouted though his comm-device to Mr. Terrific in the Watchtower.

"We've got him now, Arrow...he's in bad shape, and my people are getting him to the infirmary as we speak. I'm sending a priority signal to the rest of the League in space, but it will take a while before they get it." Mr. Terrific pauses for a moment before continuing. "This meta-human also has uncharted physical strength, and endurance. I've been monitoring your fight with him, and I noticed a specific pattern. He doesn't attack, unless he's attacked first. I need you, and the others back up here to re-group so we can come up with a strategy to defeat him. I'm teleporting you all up with Black Mask's body now." Green Arrow frowned at having to run away from a fight, but he grudgingly nodded his head.

"Fine! Do it!" Green Arrow pointed his gloved finger on his right hand angrily at Saitama, and then rested his bow next to his quiver on his back to click into a section to hold it in place. "This isn't over, not by a long shot, Pal!" The remaining League members, and Black Mask's body were all transported up to the Watchtower in orbit over the Earth. Saitama stopped trying to dislodge his metal boot from his foot to stare blankly at the departing forms of the League members.

"Arrow-san is too high-strung...I hope he went somewhere to unwind." Saitama sits up, and pushes himself off the pavement to stand back up. Saitama stares down the empty street, and rubs the back of his head. "They didn't listen when I told them Mask-san was like that when we arrived. I'm still unsure what happened...maybe Frost-san would know, they did seem like they were close once." Saitama starts walking down the undamaged part of the sidewalk, and stops when his stomach makes rumbling sounds. "I'm so hungry, I could even eat King's horrible cooking. I'd better get back to Mask-san's former Headquarters...no telling what Frost-san is up to now."

Location: New Legion Of Doom Headquarters (Formerly Black Mask's) - Star City

"You did...WHAT?!" Star Sapphire bellows at a smirking Killer Frost, and throws her pink gloved hands up in the air with an incredulous look on her face. Killer Frost leans back in Black Mask's easy chair, and kicks her feet up on the desk, with her hands resting behind her head.

"I thought I was crystal clear in my explanation to all of you, Princess. Black Mask needed to go, so I sent him on to Hell a little early." Killer Frost grins over to Ms. Li., and she adjusts her glasses on her face with her right hand nervously. Atomic Skull has a look of confusion, and folds his arms over his chest.

"Wait...when Boss-Saitama left with Mask in tow, he was still alive. How could you have killed him when you didn't even touch him?" Killer Frost frowns at Atomic Skull, who now is wearing a new pair of pants.

Frost's expression changes into a dark smile, and she takes her hands from behind her head, and puts her elbows on the desk, and clasps her slender hands together. "Did you forget I was the one that put Roman in the deep freeze? Before our bold, and bald leader got his hands on him, I used my power to freeze the blood in his heart valves shut. No blood pumping, means the heart eventually stops beating. Even with the added adrenaline pumping in his system from Boss-man's jumping with him as carry-on luggage wouldn't be enough to keep him alive." The other Legion of Doom members nod at each other at her logic, and some members send Killer Frost looks of respect.

"The best part about using my power this way, is that it's completely untraceable. No way for anyone to connect me with his murder." Killer Frost starts to breathe out cold mist from her mouth, and stares menacingly at the other Legion of Doom members. "I know you're all smart enough not to go snitching on me to the Boss-man, right?" The others quickly nod their heads, remembering what she did to their old colleagues at their former headquarters.

"Sooo...when our new Leader shows up with a lifeless Black Mask to drop him off to Star City's finest, they'll get in touch with the League. Then, they will confront Saitama...who will have no choice, but to fight back." Toyman surmises with a wicked smile underneath his Toyman head.

"You planned this all along, didn't you?" Star Sapphire remarked with a knowing look underneath her mask, and her gloved hands on her shapely hips. Killer Frost folds her arms over her small breasts, and nods in the affirmative.

"That's right. The new Boss-Man may have the brawn, but I'm gonna be the brains of this outfit!" The other Legion of Doom members began to argue with each other, and Killer Frost about her bold statement. None of the Legion members noticed when Lex Luthor starts to groan from his position on the floor, and he begins to slowly regain consciousness.
