Summary: Superheroes are already used to dealing with visitors from other times and dimensions. But having so many of these hidden blade toting, scar bearing, and rather moody men suddenly appearing out of nowhere gives them a new type of experience all together. Just what is a Templar and why do they hate them so much? Shay is the first to appear and things just snowball from there.
Most of these stories usually started out with 'Wally did it.'. If not, 'Robin and Wally did it.'. And, if by some miracle it hadn't been those two, it was 'Who left the Team unsupervised?'.
But this time around, the teenagers were safe from the Justice League scolding them and threatening to shut them down. For this time, they had nothing to be blamed about because they had nothing to be accused of.
Well, Wally was still blamed, but he really had nothing to do with it.
Even though he quickly became the sole reason why the Justice League wasn't able to return these odd visitors to their own lives as fast they had initially wanted to. That and because of all the odd twists and turns their adventure took.
They had been on a mission when it happened. A simple one that only required them to not lose sight of Green Arrow and Black Canary as those two infiltrated a notoriously dangerous gang in Star City. It was supposed to have been a learning experience for them from the two rather intelligent mentors.
But Green Arrow's disguise had not been enough to keep him undiscovered and before the Team knew it, they were saving the two heroes from being gunned down by the members of the Black Star Triad.
It was as the Team did their best to keep the two adult blondes from dying that Kid Flash noticed someone on the floor that didn't belong there. But he couldn't stop in the middle of the battle he was now in, so he did his best to keep an eye on the odd person as he fought off the onslaught from the rest of the dangerous gang of gun toting crazed men.
"Artemis, Red Arrow, we need cover fire!" Robin yelled through the mind link, disappearing into the shadows after he had knocked out two of the gangsters.
The green clad girl hid at the top of the warehouse, hidden by shadows as well with Red Arrow right beside her, and both of them fired volley after volley of arrows down on the group of dangerous
"Kid Flash, get rid of that machine gun. We cannot do much with it gunning us down." Aqualad ordered and the red head immediately ran at the biggest man of the gang, the one that held the very gun Aqualad was worried about.
As the Team continued to work together and disarm the Black Star Triad, they soon found themselves beating away the onslaught of people. And in almost no time most of the criminals were bound and gagged as the Team waited for the right authorities to arrive and take them, even though a few lucky people had managed to flee before being taken by the heroes.
Once he was sure that all of his teammates were safe and that all the criminals were restrained, Kid Flash made his way towards the back of the warehouse, where he had found the body of the the mystery person. When he got there, he found the body right where he had left it and was able to see that the silhouette of the body must have belonged to a male from the strong build on him.
"Wicked." The hyperactive red head breathed out as he neared the figure, noticing the bunched up hood at the bottom of his neck and the long type of dark coat he wore. "What's your story, bud?"
He ran over towards the man and softly turned him over, hoping to not jostle what injuries he might have sustained. And when he had finally turned the man around, he found a the face of a strong man with a scar running from over his right eyebrow down to just above his cheekbone. His dark brown hair was pulled back into a ponytail that was held together by a type of dark ribbon, but his whole face was basically covered in dirt and blood.
As Kid Flash looked him over, the boy found that the man's coat was tattered and cut up as if he had found himself in the fight of a life time and when he poked and prodded at his arms and legs and torso, found that at least two of his ribs were undoubtedly broken and his left arm was rather close to it. Blood seeped out of all his wounds and made the red headed boy think he had just sustained them a while ago.
But, aside from those wounds, this guy was armed to the teeth. Twin revolvers, a sword and dagger, some type of contraption on his arm, and a type of air rifle at his back were all the weapons Wally had seen. Who knew if he had any more on him.
Maybe he was a victim of the Black Star Triad, thought Wally as stood up with a frown.
"M'gann, is G.A. there?" He asked through the mind link, sitting down beside the man to continue looking over his wounds.
"Yes, he is, Wally. What is going on?"
"I found a guy back here and I think he was beat up by the Black Star Triad before we could stop them. His breathing is getting shallower by the minute and I'm worried he won't be able to make the trip to the nearest hospital."
"We'll be there in a minute."
After M'gann said this, the link cut off slightly and Wally worried that his whole team had heard the conversation and were on their way to his location. But, he didn't mind because he knew they were only going to come out of the goodness of their heart.
A groan left the mouth of the stranger as he moved slightly, but after that he fell silent again and stilled once more. This worried Wally because he was now sure that the guy was completely unconscious, but before he could try to use any of the extremely limited knowledge he had on first aid, Miss Martian appeared with Green Arrow, the rest of his fellow heroes trailing behind them.
"This the guy you spoke about?" Green Arrow asked as he immediately knelt beside the stranger, going to check up on his vitals.
"Yeah, knocked unconscious. Seems like the Triad did quite the number on him." Wally nodded, then shook his head. "We can't take him to Star General, GA, he has no ID and I'm sure he does have a bunch of different weapons on him. He'll get into too much trouble if we take him to a general hospital and we won't be able to find out just who he is before he's taken into custody."
Green Arrow looked at the boy with concern at those words, but still nodded and moved to pick the strange man up.
"We'll just tell Bats he's a friend if the guy asks. A random dude that tried to help us out but got hit too hard for his own good." Green Arrow told the kids as he began to move away from the spot the stranger had once been and carried him away to the Bio-Ship.
"Do you think he's going to be okay?" M'gann asked softly as she watched the stranger being treated by Red Tornado through the window in the med bay.
After Green Arrow had taken the mysterious man to the Bio-Ship, the whole team had rushed to return to the mountain and get him healed. Kid Flash wanted him to be okay because he was curious about what had happened and how he had so many weapons, and Green Arrow used the excuse that he may be a witness against the Black Star Triad once they came to trial. But the rest of the teens were just worried about him because of their caring hero hearts.
"I think he is." Artemis sighed, smiling at her friend, "Red's treating him. And we all know if anyone can fix someone up, it's Red Tornado."
M'gann smiled in gratitude at her friend's caring words, then looked up when Red Arrow and Green Arrow walked into the hallway from the mission's hub.
"I'll be leaving now. Catch you kids on the next mission." Red Arrow told them with a small wave, which made Green Arrow frown at how the boy clearly ignored him.
But the blonde only chose to let his adopted son's indifference slide and smiled at the kids seated around the hallway outside the med bay. "You kids did a good job. We were able to shut down a rather important branch of the Triad's operations and Batman didn't get angry when I told him about Mr. Stray over here."
They all smiled slightly at Green Arrow's words, but before anyone could say anything else, a loud 'CRASH' from the room the stranger was in stopped them. Kid Flash ran up to the window and his eyes widened at the sight he now found.
The stranger now stood on the other side of the room with Red Tornado looking at him with those robotic slits of his. Somehow he had managed to rip off all of the bandages placed on him in his jump and his wounds had been exacerbated enough to begin to bleed once more but he didn't seem to care as he looked from one side of the room to the window, where he found the teenagers looking at him.
"Where am I?" he yelled out with his eyes wide, "And who are you?"
Kid Flash noted the heavy Irish accent, but couldn't do anything to diffuse the situation before the stranger spoke up once more, "And where is The Morrigan? What have you done to me?"
"Please calm down and return to the bed." Red Tornado asked, taking one step towards the stranger.
It proved to have been the wrong move.
It was so the wrong move.
So this is the first chapter and I hope you really enjoyed it! All of the main character assassins up to Shay will be front and center in this story (Altair, Ezio, Connor, Edward, and Shay himself) along with Haytham and Charles Lee.
