DC Universe: X

Dr. Fate

A New Hero

"The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why." -Mark Twain

You saw nothing but darkness, with echoes of unknown origin in your ears.

Voice 1: Will he wake up?

Voice 2: Yes, though I'm not sure when.

Voice 1: What was Bruce thinking? The city is in ruin.

Voice 2: Bruce had no choice. He would not have come willingly, collateral damage was to be expected. Let us be thankful that no one was hurt.

Voice 1: Yes, but the UN wants him imprisoned.

Voice 2: We can't allow that, his destiny is fast approaching, Noximus is gathering his power as we speak.

Voice 1: That is what I tried to tell them, but they think that they can face Noximus on their own terms.

Voice 2: They are greatly mistaken, he is our only hope.

Your hearing faded, and you slipped back into silent darkness.

Within the abyss, you saw a angel with great, pure white wings, descend down to you.

The angel had rose red hair, and her face looked familiar.

X: R-Rox? Is that you?

Rox: Rest now X.

X: Rox, I-I'm so sorry

Rox held you in her arms, and lifted you up into a bright light.

When you were able to see your surroundings, you saw that you were in your old high school.

You recognized the class as history, and realized that this was when you first met Rox

X: This is when we first met.

Rox pointed at a set of two desks, where younger versions of you and Rox sat.

Young X: Hey, your Stephanie right?

Young Rox: Y-Yeah.

Young X: I'm (Your Name), we are both in computer class?

Young Rox: Yeah, we do, so?

Young X: Well, um, your good with computers right?

Young Rox: Uh, yeah, where is this going?

Young X: Let me get to the point, I have a plan to take the money out of a safe in some rich guys house uptown, but I need a hacker, interested?

Young Rox: You're offering me to rob someone's house? You can't be serious.

Young X: So you wouldn't do it for five thousand dollars?

Young Rox: How much?

Young X: Five thousand, and all you have to do is shit off the cameras long enough for me to get the money from the vault.
