Chapter 1 - Heroes reunited

()()()

A week passed since the Kent family took shelter in the Wayne Mansion. By this time, Diana Prince and Clark Kent put out the word to their old friends, along with Kenny Triton, that they were reuniting to deal with the amazon situation.

At the same time, the amazon situation was growing worse. 3 days after Rose's kidnapping, Amazons attacked the white house, and within an hour, had the white house under their control. They also attacked the pentagon in the same day, but the pentagon was able to hold them off, as they had the security measures in place in the form of the X-com team, a project put together to deal with alien attacks. As a result, the president was forced to temporarily move to the Pentagon and stay there for the time being.

By the time a week had passed, the team of Bruce Wayne, Diana Prince, Clark Kent, Dick Grayson, Cassandra Sandsmark, Kenny Triton, and Steve Kent, the gifted son of Clark and Diana, were teamed up, prepared to take on the amazons.

The last one to arrive at the gathering was Kenny, as he had to make sure his family would be safe in the cottage. He spent 4 days training his 16 year old daughter and 14 year old son how to use firearms, in case anything went wrong.

When he arrived at the Wayne Mansion, he came driving in a rented 2038 Camaro SS, much to the displeasure of Diana.

"Hey Kenny, I thought I told you not to be conspicuous." Diana scolded kenny as he drove up in the muscle car.

"This is the Wayne mansion." Replied Kenny, getting out of the car "If I came in an old car, that would be conspicuous."

Diana shrugged and figured Kenny had it thought out right.

"Come in, Bruce, Clark, and I have been drawing up the plans." Diana led the way.

"Sounds good." Kenny followed Diana up the steps into the mansion. "This is where Bruce Wayne makes his home...does well for himself." Kenny smiled.

"He's been a billionaire for a long time. Now he concentrates on real estate, considering how trickle-down economics and capitalism are making it easy for the rich to stay that way." Said Diana.

Kenny knew about that. His other friend, Teena Wahlberg made a great move selling her business shares just before the stock market crashed during the 2008 recession, and took the money and bought a series of homes and got herself into real estate, and essentially took Kenny under her wing as an enforcer, cleaning up the bad neighborhoods and bringing the prices of homes back to fruitition.

"Yep." Kenny sat down at the table where the rest of the heroes were.

"Good to see you again, Kenny." Cassandra Sandsmark extended her hand for a shake.

"Likewise." Kenny shook Cassandra's hand "I saw your championship fight against Alexis that one night, Holy smokes, poor lady never knew what hit her."

"I relive that night all the time." replied Cassandra. "I kind of miss all the fights I did have."

At that moment, Bruce Wayne & Dick Grayson came into the room, dressed as Batman & Darkwing. The group knew exactly who they were and didn't need to be shocked.

"I'm glad everyone is here." Batman began "First things first. I need you all to become your alter egos, as the time is short."

At that moment, Both Diana and Cassandra got up from the table, spun themselves and became Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl. Clark Kent went into another room, and came out as superman. All Kenny had to do was lift the hood over his head, and became The Coat.

"Good, now that we're all together, I wish to pass leadership of this campaign, onto Wonder Woman."

"In favor." replied Superman.

"Favor." The Coat put his hand up.

The group followed suit and Wonder Woman became the leader.

"Ok then, Diana, the floor is yours." Batman sat down at the table, and Wonder Woman began speaking.

"Ok, as you know, the amazons have been attacking a number of important buildings across the northern U.S. They've overrun the White House and forced the staff to move to the pentagon." Wonder Woman started "And now, I think it's time we picked a major location to attack."

"What locations have they overtaken?" Asked 17 year old Steve Kent.

"Area 51 is still under amazon control. The white house is. The One world trade centre, the N.Y.S.E., the Sears Tower, and a few other locations that aren't strategic in the least."

"But they at least have a good idea of what to do." Replied Superman.

"Right...the NYSE and the One World Trade Centre has done bad things to the economy, and has halted trading and business. The real problems are the White House and Area 51. And personally, I think we should strike Area 51 first." Wonder Woman posted her opinion.

"I'll second that." Batman put his hand up.

"Me too." Replied Superman.

"But, here's the thing. We don't know if these amazons started there, or if they're still starting from Themyscira...that's why after we storm Area 51, i'm going back home...to Themyscira. Alone."

The Group rose up a bit.

"That could be dangerous, Mom." Steve spoke up.

"I can take care of myself." Wonder Woman hushed her son.

"And get yourself killed." replied Batman.

"I'm prepared to die. You all are too, right?" asked Wonder Woman.

"Of course." The Coat spoke up "But if we're playing chess with the amazons, we don't risk the queen, we risk the pawns."

"They'll kill you the moment you step on the sands of Themyscira." Wonder Woman covered her plan. "You go in as backup, you're not up against just one or 2 amazons, you're up against an army. And they hate anyone who isn't an amazon. And i'm still not telling you where it is...that secret died with Steve Trevor, and it dies with me...whenever that is."

Even if Diana wasn't going to tell them, Odds were the boys would come after her if she didn't return in time. And the worst part was, is she knew that. Diana had a sense of pride and still had the mentality that she had to take care of herself and she didn't want help.

"But for now, let's concentrate on storming Area 51." Wonder Woman changed the subject back. "We can do a straight attack on it, and take the rogue amazons by surprise. Stick close, use what tools we have to fight. If anything, when my daughter was kidnapped last week, we already showed them we're serious...now...we have to put a cap on it."

Wonder Woman slammed her fist on the table.

"I say we do it. And do it today."

The group were all in favor. Now, it was a matter of getting to Area 51.

"So, how are we going to get there?" asked Wonder Woman.

"I'll take the batcopter, Darkwing can fly with me." Batman had his transport lined up.

"I'm riding with you guys, if that's OK." The Coat spoke up.

"You can take my back again." Cassandra volunteered to be the horse.

"Thanks." The Coat said "I hope it's not too much trouble."

"Actually." Batman spoke up "I have something that would suit you, Kenny. Follow me down to the batcave, actually, all of you come down here, I want to show you what we've been working on."

Batman led the team to the elevator that would take them down to the bat-cave, where experiments were being worked on, all the time. The Elevator travelled downward, and eventually opened up the way to the Batcave.

"Woah!" the heroes who hadn't seen the cave were shocked at it's vast collection of projects, some that were incomplete.

"This...this is where I have put together some of my most, amazing experiments." Batman walked over to a table where a pair of boots were.

"It's been a while since i've seen this place." Cassandra spoke.

Batman picked up the boots from the table, and handed them to The Coat.

"These, are special boots. They'll allow you to fly."

The Coat's eyes widened anime style. After all, it wasn't every day you got to fly in your own shoes.

"Gee, thanks man!" The Coat gave Batman a hug with the boots still in his hands.

"I must warn you, they have not been tested, and I need someone to test them." Batman allowed The Coat to put the boots on.

"Bruce, are you sure this is a good idea?" Wonder Woman spoke up with concern.

"I wouldn't worry about it, Diana." Batman noticed The Coat had the boots on. "They cannot self-destruct, i've installed an bat-anti-self-destruct feature on them."

"Nice. He won't have his feet blown off." Steve joked.

"How do they work?" asked The Coat.

"Well, you need to use your toes to power the boots, then use your legs to steer them."

"Like this?" The Coat pushed his toes into the gels of the boots, and he powered off the floor of the batcave, and then came crashing down through a table, causing everyone to gasp...then burst out laughing.

"Nice going, Kenny!" Superman joked.

"Yeah, thanks." The Coat got up from the broken table and stood up. "Good...nothing's busted."

"Except my table, but, tables can be replaced...you cannot." Batman tapped The Coat's head.

"Thanks." The Coat smiled.

"So, you can give them a test while we're up in the air." Batman told The Coat.

"Which is where we really should be going...so let's go." Wonder Woman signalled for the team to move out.

"Alright." Batman turned to his old protege, Darkwing. "To the batcopter!"

"Let's go!" Wonder Woman led the team out of the batcave after Batman & Darkwing, who were headed to their batcopter outside of the cave.

Outside, Wonder Woman ran and took a big leap and began to fly. Superman followed suit, Steve hadn't quite learned to fly yet, so he hung onto Wonder Girl. The Coat began to use the jet powered boots to launch into the air, and followed the team.

The Batcopter flew behind them all, and they all went at appropriate speeds.
