(Nathaniel is seen at the Team's hideout as the members introduce themselves to them.)

Superboy: Superman... told me about you... Nathaniel, right?

(Nathaniel nods)

Kid Flash (Wally West): Conner, Nathaniel. Nathaniel, Conner.

Nathaniel/Superboy: Not now.

Zatanna: Sorry about Kid Flash. (bows) My name is Zatanna, by the way.

Rocket: Call me Rocket, and I must say, you gave Batman a run for his money when you fought Bane.

Ms. Martian: Call me Miss Martian, I am the niece of Martian Manhunter.

Artemis: Call me Artemis Crook. Nice to meet you.

Aqualad: My name is Kaldur'ahm, but call me Aqualad during missions.

Robin (Dick Grayson): And I am Robin, leader of the Team.

Nathaniel: My name is Nathaniel, and as you can see I'm only the adopted son of Superman.

Kid Flash (Wally West): And... what happened before all of this?

Nathaniel: My mom and my exes cheated on me behind my back. I left the house I used to live in, and I got caught in a crossfire between the Justice League and the Legion of Doom. But Superman saved me and along with Lois Lane, he decided to adopt me.

Zatanna: (in mind) So he was betrayed. I'll never forgive those despicable girls!

Rocket: (in mind) So THAT'S why he got himself involved in that fight last week.

Nathaniel: And I accepted to be taken in by Clark and Lois, and my life got better since then.

(Zatanna approaches Nathaniel.)

Zatanna: If it's alright, we could hang out sometime. You see, I'm getting nowhere with the other boys. (blushes) Besides, whenever I'm close to you, I feel like there are butterflies in my stomach...

Superboy: He barely explained why he's here, and you're already asking him out?

Nathaniel: Well, if we don't have anything else to do...

Robin (Dick Grayson): Well, we didn't have any covert missions lately, so...

Rocket: Sweet.

(Timeskip)

(Nathaniel is seen hanging out with his friends as he is wearing some elegant suit and a hat in his head. Zatanna and Rocket hug his arms, making him blush. What they don't know is that some familiar figures are seen in the shadows watching the scene before them, and some of them are surprised and others angry.)

Marin: Since when Nathaniel can make friends?

Uzaki: And where did he get enough money to buy such fancy suit?

Nagatoro: (angry) And most of all, who are those two bitches holding him?

Anjou: Settle down, Nagatoro. We WILL get him back.

Takagi: Anjou is right, Nagatoro. We wouldn't have lost him if that fucker hasn't poisoned our minds.

(Komi writes somehing and shows it to her friends.)

Komi: (We have no one to blame but ourselves for simply choosing that bastard, not knowing he would simply use us to hurt him.)

????: If you want, I can find a way to reunite you with him, kids.

(The girls turn to see Slade Wilson, also known as Deathstroke.)

Micchon: Who are you, and what do you mean when you said you have a way to reunite us with him?

Deathstroke: Forgive my rudeness, kid. I'm Deathstroke, member of the League of Shadows. You see, my boss has taken an interest on the new member of the Team.

Yor: That's my son, sir...

????: He stopped being your son when you had your fun with that prick.

(They turn to see Nathaniel and the Team.)

Dick: (stern) Slade...

Deathstroke: (monotone) Grayson...

Conner: Do you realize the damage you caused on him?

Marin: It doesn't matter, we will get him back. No one will stop us!

Nathaniel: (pulls out his driver) Then I guess I won't need to hold back.

SEIKEN SWORDRIVER!

(Nathaniel pulls out a book.)

BRAVE DRAGON!

(He places it on his driver and pulls out the sword.)

REKKA BATTOU!

Nathaniel: Henshin!

BRAVE DRAGON! REKKA ISSATSU! YUKI NO RYUU TO KAENKEN REKKA GA MAJIWARU TOKI, SHINKU NO TSURUGI GA AKU WO TSURANUKU!

KAENKEN REKKA!

(Everyone is shocked by seeing Nathaniel becoming Kamen Rider Saber.)

Saber: I will decide this story's ending!
