The Realm Hero Chronicles

Chapter 11: A Surprise for the Justice League

Disclaimer: Yeah, we all know what I mean. Nothing but RAC!

As soon as the Young Justice landed back at Mount Justice, they immediately set to work, planning on how they would surprise the Justice League. 

"First things first," Kaldur said, "We need to block off all external communications. We cannot let the League know what happened at the drafting."

"Already done," Artemis said, looking up from a holographic keyboard. "Fortunately for us, the League is in a meeting," She added.

"I'll bake Robin's favorite kind of cookies, whatever they are!" M'gann said brightly, hovering toward the kitchen.

"Hot buttered cinnamon raisin scones!" Wally yelled after her.

Superboy grinned excitedly, "What can I do to help?"

"Keep an eye on the League," Kaldur said, "We are now temporally off duty, Connor."

"On it," Connor said, pulling up a screen of the Watchtower meeting room. Thanks to Robin's hacking, the Team could now keep an eye on their heroic mentors.

"Let's give the League the biggest surprise of their lives," Wally smirked before running to aid M'gann in baking the scones.

"It's been two hours since the Team left for the drafting," Zatara said, "You think they're okay?"

"They're good kids, Zatara," Black Canary smiled, "Trustworthy kids. They'll be fine." Deep down, however, she was worried about the Team.

"If anything, the Team is probably on an illegal mission," Flash said. This earned him a Bat-glare from the Dark Knight on the other side of the table.

"If they are on an illegal mission, I will know about it," Batman said grimly.

"I will call them," Red Tornado said, typing on his holographic screen, "Tornado to Cave, come in Cave." There was static.

"That's funny," Captain Marvel said, "They're not answering."

"Let's try contacting them individually," Batman said, tapping his communicator. "Batman to Robin, come in, please respond." More static. The members who had proteges on the Young Justice did the same.

"Static on all of the channels," Flash said, "Can't reach any of them."

"Something is wrong," Aquaman said.

"I'm checking Cave security and communications," Superman said. Then his eyebrows raised in alarm. "The Cave communications are turned off!" He cried.

"What?" The League gasped.

"Where's the Team now?" Zatara asked, trembling.

"In the mountain," Hawkgirl said, staring at a holographic screen.

Batman stood up, his cape swishing. "Let's go. NOW."

However, when the League arrived at the Cave, the Team was gone. 

"Computer," Batman said, "Pull up Cave security." The security footage did inform the League of where the Team had gone: the Zeta tubes marked the destination of the Team: the Hall of Justice.
