A few days after Kara's birthday found the entire Justice League sitting around the meeting table on the Watchtower to discuss Darkseid's most recent attack on Earth.

Due to how big the situation was, Kara had requested that all Leaguers attend the meeting in person and not in hologram. Which was why they were all sitting around the big round table with a large JL in the center, each of them with a chair that had their personal logos on the back.

Sitting at the head of the table was the League's leader, Supergirl. To Supergirl's left sat her cousin Superman and next to him was Green Lantern (Alex), Martian Manhunter, Flash, Ice Maiden, Vixen, Batwoman, Green Lantern (Hal), Black Lightning, Blue Beetle, Doctor Fate (since the League had decided that despite Kent Nelson's passing, technically the spirit of Nabu was the leaguer, whoever wore the helmet was just his host, but said host could not enter the Watchtower or be part of Justice League operations without the helmet on), Aquaman, Red Tornado, Hawkman, Hawkwoman, Spartan, Katana, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Wonder Woman and finally to Supergirl's right sat her second in command, Batman.

"Thank you all for coming." Kara said.

"Nice new suit." Flash said, since Supergirl was wearing a new suit since her old one had gotten trashed in her fights with Red Daughter and Darkseid, her parents had given her a new and improved suit for her birthday.

"Thanks, it was a birthday present." Supergirl said.

"Great party by the way." Wonder Woman said with a smirk.

"Anyways, can we please stay focused on why I called this meeting." Kara said as she pushed a button on her console at the table and a projection of Darkseid appeared over the center of the table.

"Darkseid." Superman said at the sight of his old enemy.

"The single greatest threat not only to this world, but every world in the universe. He's the most feared despot in the universe." Kara said.

"It's true. There isn't a single planet that doesn't dread his arrival. Even Thanagar is afraid of him." Hawkman said.

"And they have a reputation for being tyrants and war mongers themselves." Supergirl said.

"Seriously, now?" Hal asked, annoyed.

"What's going on?" Jefferson asked.

"Thanagar invaded Krypton years ago before I was born. And attempted to drain our resources and brought our planet closer to destruction. So in a way, what happened to Krypton is on Thanagar's head." Kara said.

"We're not all like that. And in case you're forgetting, Krypton won that war and the defeat was so devastating that it ended the Thanagarian empire." Carter said.

"But we are sorry about that. After Krypton exploded, a lot of worlds blamed Thanagar for it, which further ruined our reputation and the Green Lantern Corp kept closer tabs on us. Why do you think they allow two Lanterns to stay close to Earth? To keep tabs on us and the Reach warrior." Sheira said.

"Anyways, can we please table this conversation for a later date." Bruce said, annoyed.

"Right, sorry, that's just a sore topic for me. I know Carter and Chay-Ara aren't like the rest of their people." Kara said and both Hawks nodded at her in understanding.

"Anyways, back on topic, Darkeseid. I'm still trying to figure out why he'd attack me and not Clark." Kara said.

"Maybe it's because he knew that you were the leader of the Justice League and since we are the biggest opposition to his plans to invade us, he might have wanted to take out our leader first." Bruce suggested.
