Eminent Threat

The Markovian air just seemed to get thicker the longer we were there and with Brion going rogue the more likely it was that we were going to get identified. "I'm following him with infrared. He's headed for the palace. I'll try to cut him off—"

A loud boom cut Conner off as four figures emerged from a boom tube a few feet from us making me put my mask back on. Vertigo, Plamsmus, Ecks and Henchy walk towards us ready for a fight. Sphere let out a few mechanical beeps. "And they used Father box to track Sphere, great." I spat.

"Astria! We'll protect the doctor and the girl. Get Brion." I have a nod before I took off towards the palace. Brion and a rock covered DeLamb stood on opposite ends of the venue, horrified guests watching the ordeal. I landed with a force that shook the ground before the two men, "Prince Brion, we need to leave. This isn't the way to handle this and we can help you find the right one."

DLamb strutted towards us, menace in his eyes. "And so our worst fears are confirmed! Prince Brion Markov! In leagues with meta-human assassins!" Prince Gregor threw a finger pointing out that DeLamb himself was a meta-human too but that was dispelled but some crap lie about doing it to protect the people of Markovia.

Brion's molten rock grew brighter with rage and resentment. The heat emanating from his body enough to melt glass. "Liar! That's why I did it! To defend my country from you!"

"Brion! No!" I tired but failed as he leaped towards DeLamb with a fury. Brion threw punches at his uncle only to get beat down instead. DeLamb picked him up and threw him into a statue, shattering it into chunks. I turned to the guests, "Hey! Get out of here! Now! Go!"

Brion still reeling with rage kept up his attack and threw molten rock at the man who only shrugged it off. I jumped towards a couple that clearly didn't care to listen to me yelling at them to leave to get them out of the way of some of the lava flying towards them. "Next time just run." I warned.

I turned back to see Brion on the ground defeated with DeLamb towering over him. "Finish him! Open fire!" He ordered, his rough voice like grinding rock.

"Disregard that order! Arrest Baron DeLamb." Prince Gregor countered.

"Little Prince, you dare?" DeLamb questioned. "The security forces are mine to control now that I've proven—"

"What you've proven here is your hypocrisy." Gregor's face twisted at the betrayal. "You've been scapegoating meta-humans, though you yourself were a meta-human. Clearly, you've done business with the meta-human traffickers my parents were trying to stop. You lied to them!"

"No! No—"

"And your great skill with your meta-ability? That no doubt required time to master. Which tells me you received your powers long before Brion." Gregor took steps forward towards his uncle. "Oh, I know you uncle. And it's clear your deceptions were the groundwork for a coup against my family and Markovia."

DeLamb's tightly clenched hand sliced through the air, angry and disbelief running through him as he tried to defend himself. "You have no hard evidence!"

"We have enough to mount a lengthy investigation into your affairs. I place you under arrest for the murder of my mother and father." Prince Gregor voice steady and calm but his words bearing an unmistakable coldness. DeLamb jump at the Prince and I took that as my cue to jump in to protect the Prince. My fist connected with his face, the rock cracking as he flew across the yard. Brion took the chance and jumped onto his back but was quickly thrown off.

I took a stance, "You ever been beaten by a girl before?" I mocked. DeLamb grunted not appearing my humor. He swung hard and missed, his anger clearly the driving force which allowed an opening for me to hit him harder. Again I hit him in the face before bringing my clasped hands down on his head. He landed on the grass, exhausted and in pain as I looked down at him.

"Thank you." Prince Gregor said to me and I gave a nod. "At least you're safe not brother." Brion chimed in, the once glowing red rock covering his body cooling to a jagged obsidian as the relief washed over him. Unexpectedly the guards cocked their guns at him causing his eyes to widen. "What are you doing? DeLamb is the criminal. Not me!"

The royal ambassador, dressed in a crisp black suit, walked up to Prince Gregor, "Your Highness, whatever the Baron's crimes, your brother also has much to answer for here. And if I may say, Markovia has suffered enough at the hands of meta-humans." Gregor tried to reason with him but the ambassador cut him off. "Please listen to me, my Prince. Your country needs a new beginning. A new king. A new leader!"

Brion's face tightened, the hope once in his eyes now replaced by a wounded confusion. "No..." Brion muttered, his voice trembling. "Gregor, please, don't do this."

"You must leave Markovia. Immediately." Gregor stated. His features remained steady the mask hiding his true feelings. In reality his emotions were screaming out at me, hurt building in his chest as he was forced to exile his own brother, the only person he had left.

Brion's body shook before finally giving out, the weight of his new reality heavier than the rock exterior covering his body. I walked over and took a knee beside him. "Take care of him. Please." I gave another nod before singling Brion's arm over my shoulder and flying back to the rest of the team.

It looked like a war zone when we got back. Count Vertigo and Henchy were gone only an unconscious Dr. Ecks and a blackened crystalline Plasmus. "What happened?" I asked as Helga ran to Brion's aid.

"Nightwing... what do we do now."
