Saiyan Destroyer of Justice

Chapter 14

A Deep-Sea submarine drifted through the Marianas Trench.

In the main control room, an officer was staring at a photo of a young woman and a small boy, standing in front of a Batman poster with a Green Lantern shirt holding up his new action figures of Naruto and Flash.

"Is that your son?"

The officer twisted around to look at his commanding officer, a soft smile on his face. "Yes, sir."

"Big fan of the Justice League?"

"Yeah. He used to play with a toy submarine I gave him, but not anymore... His dad can't compete with heroes like Naruto around."

The commanding officer chuckled, "Well, not all heroes wear capes."

"Yes, sir."

"Take us. Investigating an SOS beacon in the middle of the Atlantic. That's pretty heroic."

"- T-minus 10."

"Like people, Sir!"

"- Brace for impact!"

The submarine rocked violently from side to side as the craft went dark before emergency lights began to flash

"We've lost propulsion, Sir!"

The C.O raced to the phone, "Engine room, report!"

"Leaking water, captain! We-"

The radio crackled before all went silent, "Engine room? Engine room!"

Suddenly, there were several loud bangs as the bulkhead door started to concave, as though someone strong was striking the door over and over again, trying to get in. With armed guards taking up positions, the Captain raced over to the phone that would put them in contact with the surface world.

"SOS!" he yelled into the phone, "This is the S.S. California with an emergency SOS! We are under attack! I only hope someone hears th- "

He was cut off as ocean water flooded the compartment.

As the submarine floated down to the bottom of the sea, a photo of a mother and a son quickly became soaked,
