The Sentinels vs The Rogues (Legends)

Revelations

The team gathered around the kitchen bar in Anthony's penthouse, getting Reese and Tricia caught up on themselves.

Anthony pointed to himself. "Me, along with my brother Danny, found out about our abilities when we were young. Turns out our father was a scientist involved in some heavy shit."

"Your dad wouldn't happen to be Marcus Tyler, would he?"

Anthony looked puzzled. "How the hell did you know that?"

"I have a friend who works for the DoD now, and I asked him to look up whatever he could on anything alien related. Your dad was one of the scientists involved in a research project on samples of alien tech found on the Roswell shipwreck from 1947."

"So you're saying that the ALZ and DLH strands we have..."

"Most likely a by-product of fucking around with advanced, alien technology. Kind of similar to how I got my powers, minus the abduction and experiments...and hybridization of human and alien DNA strands. From what my boy told me, it involved alien equipment, research data and your DNA, combining it all with different levels of radiation."

"Fuck!" Danny cried. "I knew Dad was hush-hush on things, but I wouldn't have thought..."

"I know. Alien tech saved our lives." Anthony had to process the realization of his father's work.

"Your lives?"

"Yeah," Anthony replied. "When we were born, we had some life threatening shit happen to us. Our dad decided it was best to save us with experimental formulas he called ALZ and DLH."

"Damn. Well, at least it worked."

"Yeah," Danny solemnly replied, "but our mom died giving birth to us."

The room fell silent, and Amber patted Anthony's back.

"But hey, we're superheroes now." Anthony broke the silence. "I go by Crimson Warlock, Danny here by Silverstreak."

"Oh, codenames." Reese chuckled.

"Yeah. Eli over there, we call him the Inhuman, on account of his brute strength. Amber here...well, we haven't found a name for her."

"We will." Amber smiled. "Now what about you Reese? How about Jaeger, or Atlas?"

"I...don't do codenames."

"What?" Danny asked. "Why not, it's sick. We'll come up with one for you. Although Jaeger sounds kickass."

"Eh...I'll think about it." Reese awkwardly rubbed his neck.

Just then, Anthony's phone blared. He picked it up, and noticed the alert.

"Oh shit. Armed robbery a few blocks away, First Toronto Bank."

Reese jumped up. "What are we waiting for? Let's go!"
