"Oh, hey. You're a little late, Garfie-"

"52 takes," he grumbled, interrupting Artemis while walking past her. "52!"

"Okay, we will talk about it later." The blonde then went to stand beside Wanda and Kaldur who were facing Tera, Halo, Forager, Geo-Force, and Beast Boy. "Okay everybody. Miss Martian was needed at the meta human youth center, so she assigned me and Wanda to lead Gama squad."

Aquaman was next to speak. "This will be a covert mission, recon only."

Gar scoffed, leaning into the bug. "They always say 'recon only' it never turns out that way."

"The mission had better turn out that way. Since the League is not allowed in Russia without prior consent."

This made Brion raise a brow. "Russia?"

"We're being sent to investigate Russia's plow shed 52 base," Wanda informed as she pulled up a holo globe with a red dot on the area. A screen then popped up of the building. "We have intel of a government sponsored meta program there."

"No doubt the Russian equivalent of Bedlam."

"I understand that Markovia suffered under former Soviet union, but do not prejudge," Kaldur told them. "Yes, this might be Russia's equivalent to Bedlam, or it may be their equivalent to Taos."

The bio ship landed in the snow covered forest, the five of them running out in their polar stealth after Beast Boy flew out. The camouflaged ship flew off once they were out. Geo-Force used his powers to creat a hole in the ground, Tera using hers to lift a rock for them to stand on while she lowered them into it. When they got to the bottom they got off, the three children looking at the two eldest expectingly. Once they were able to get the footage of Beast Boy being in position, the blonde nodded. Brion put his hands to the wall, lava shaping another hole. They went back on the rock, Halo creating an illusion to lift shield them when Tera lifted them up. Tigress read the translations while Scarlet listened.

"Welcome, Lieutenant Dmitri Pushkin, to Area-52," the woman with blonde hair greeted.

"It is an honor, Colonel Olga Ilyich," the man said

"It is an honor you have earned after volunteering and training. Soon, Lieutenant, you will take your place as the newest member of the Rocket Red Brigade. The bonding of a Red to his armor is painful. Fortunately, you will be in a drug-induced sleep."

The pod then opened. "Understood. And soon the Brigade will be revealed to the world as heroes whose valor puts the Justice League to shame."

And that was all they needed, falling back to the hole. "Forager, prepare bio-ship for extraction," Tigress ordered. "Our missions complete."

"It is?" Halo asked

"Why are we not stopping this?" Geo-Force asked, stepping up to Wanda.

"Because it's not our business. If volunteers wanna be heroes, who are we to say no," she answered.

"But their government will use them as super soldier's for-for propaganda and who knows what. They want to be the Russian Justice League."

"And that's not our business either."

He simply narrowed his eyes at her before getting on the rock with the others. Everything was going smoothly until Gar sent them something. "Tigress, Scarlet, Beast Boy's feed-"
