Omen

The Team

Omen went to where his new contractor was supposed to meet him, he waited until they arrived. They were meeting him in a hotel room, the contractor chose where they'd meet Omen and the contractor thought this place wouldn't attract much attention. Once Omen saw that the new contractor was waiting for him he made his move, it was his thing.

The lights in the room began to flicker and when they stopped Omen was standing near the large windows in the room. The contractor, her name was Mia Harrison, was a bit startled but she quickly recovered. Mia Harrison was an up and coming weapons dealer, Omen knew she was good at her job, he had seen her making a deal once.

Mia seemed to be studying him, most people did when they had never met Omen before. Mia crossed her arms, "You aren't what I was expecting."

Omen's eyes were hidden by his hood but they flashed with irritation, he erased the emotion quickly. "You're not the first person to tell me that." Mia gestured to a chair across from her and Omen sat down, he wasn't worried about her double crossing him. Many people have tried and they all ended up dead, if she was smart she wouldn't get on his bad side.

Mia passed Omen a file, "Another weapons dealer is trying to pull my business out from under me. He hired a killer to come after me and I want the killer and the weapons dealer gone. If you can kill both of them I'll give you money as well as a few weapons I think you'll like."

Omen read the file as he spoke, "Why do you think I'd be interested in your weapons?"

Mia leaned towards him, "They're all custom made and could make it easier for you to kill people."

Omen closed the file, "I'll take the job, I'll look at the weapons once I get the job done. I'll meet you where your operation is, do you have any questions?"

Mia nodded, "What about my involvement in this?"

"I can personally guarantee that no one will know you hired me to do this job. If you wish to become a regular contractor then all of the jobs I carry out for you will be kept a secret." Mia nodded and Omen made the lights flicker before he disappeared as quickly as he had come.

Omen was planning on going after the killer first, they were the more dangerous target after all. Omen knew where the killer was at the moment, the guy was good at his job but Omen was better. Omen traveled to the other side of town and found his target, he was discussing something with his second target.

This would be easy, even if they had men hidden in the shadows this would be easy. They were standing in an abandoned warehouse and Omen could here the weapons dealer yelling at the killer. Omen decided to freak them out a bit, once they were scared they'd get paranoid.

Omen laughed eerily and the sound echoed throughout the warehouse, the two looked startled. Omen watched them frantically look around to try and find him, why does no one ever look up? Omen made the lights flicker and he suddenly appeared about ten feet away from the two.

The hired killer took out a gun and tried to shoot him but Omen easily dodged the bullets. Omen took out his knife and plunged his knife into his heart, the weapons dealer looked terrified. Just as Omen was moving to slit the dealers throat the doors to the warehouse were opened.

Omen made the cut in one swift motion and the dealer fell to the ground, the only blood on Omen was on his knife. Omen looked towards the doors to the warehouse and saw a group of teens, Omen knew who they were. They were called 'the team' by the Justice League, they went on covert missions that the Justice League needed done.

From left to right there was Superboy, Artemis, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Miss Martian, and Robin. Omen couldn't see all of their faces but he knew they were probably shocked, he had just killed two people. In the three years that they had been a group they probably hadn't seen someone their age kill someone.

The teens recovered from their shock and they moved to try and stop Omen. Artemis tried to shoot him with a few arrows but he easily dodged them and even sent two back at her. One of them was a normal arrow and the other was a foam arrow, she was trapped with her own arrow.

Omen took a piece of cloth out of his pocket and wiped the blood off of his knife but he didn't put it away. Superboy tried to punch Omen but Omen moved out of the way before grabbing the back of his shirt. He threw Superboy at the other heroes and they managed to get out of the way and they attacked him.

Miss Martian moved a few crates to try and hit him but Omen just used them as platforms to walk on. Omen grabbed her hood and pulled it over her eyes and kicked her so she fell to the ground. Then about twenty men with guns came out of hiding in the warehouse and started shooting at him.

Omen dodged the bullets and ran after the men, he quickly took them down but he didn't kill any of them. Normally he would have disappeared by now but this was actually fun, it had been a long time since he'd had a good fight. Once he had knocked out all of the men the heroes went after him again, this time it was Kid Flash.

Omen tripped the speedster before Aqualad tried to attack him but Omen jumped and landed on the boys shoulder. Omen jumped off of his shoulder and did a flip while he was in the air and he landed silently on the ground. Aqualad turned to try and hit Omen but the assassin was too quick and he kicked the other teen in the chest.

Omen stood there for a moment and he sensed someone trying to sneak up on him. He quickly turned and pressed his knife to the person's throat before he had a chance to think. Omen saw the face of the person that had been sneaking up on him and his eyes widened a bit.

Robin was the one that had snuck up on him but that wasn't what had stopped him in his tracks. He took his blade away from Robin's throat and Robin was staring at him, did he know? There was no way he knew, Omen looked so different but then again he wasn't an idiot, he never was.

Omen wanted to say something, anything, but he couldn't and by the time he could the rest of the team was by Robin's side. Omen had gotten rid of the shocked look on his face before the team could see it, he looked neutral once again. "Well it's been fun kids but I have things to do, until next time."

The lights flickered and Omen was gone, no one could wrap their heads around what had just happened. They all went back to the mountain and Aqualad went to tell Batman what had happened as the rest of the team decided to rest. They tried to sleep but they couldn't, they were all thinking about what had happened at the warehouse.

Robin couldn't get something out of his head, the look on the boys face when he had the chance to kill him. He had stopped so suddenly and something about the boy reminded Robin of- no he couldn't think about that. The guy had killed those people, he had to bring him in just like every other criminal he came across.

Meanwhile, Omen had finally gotten back 'home' and he reported that he had taken the contract and the job was done. He'd be going out the next night to collect the money, he didn't say anything about the weapons yet. Then he was told to go to his cell, Omen went to his cell and he got a knock on his door.

He wasn't allowed to eat today so there was only one other reason they would knock on his door. He got up and opened the door, he knew what would happen if he kept them waiting. He was lead out of his cell and they walked into a different room and he laid down on the metal table in the room.

He was used to this happening by now, he just had to shut up and deal with it until it was over. He just needed to wait until it was over, then he could go back to his cell and recover, he just had to wait.
