Vosh blinked away the light. When his eyes adjusted, he found himself in a government facility. "What just happened?" He asked.

Conner tightened his grip on Vosh's hand. "I don't know. Where are the Titans?" He asked.

Vosh's heart dropped. None of the other Titans made it out. "No, no!" He screamed. A wave of energy bursted off of his body. Electronics shorted and sent sparks flying.

"Face down, on the floor now!" A redhead woman dressed in all black commanded. Soldiers in matching uniforms flanked her on both sides. Every weapon in the building took aim at the boys.

Conner stepped in front of Vosh. He balled his hands into fists. They'd been led into a trap.

Kara stepped forward. She took one look in Conner's eyes and gasped. "Wait, Alex, they're just kids." She said.

Conner looked at the S on her chest. He looked down at the symbol on his chest as well. "Who are you?" He asked.

"I'm Supergirl, this is Director Danvers. Who are you?" She asked in return.

Conner and Vosh shared a look. He had no idea what to say. He'd never heard of Supergirl before.

"I'm Supernova and this is Superboy." Vosh introduced. He took a step beside Conner and laced their fingers together.


The Earth shook. A wire with a volatile spark whizzed through the air. Before it could make contact with anyone, Vosh flew into the air and caught it. The electrical current flowed through him, though it caused him no pain.

"O...Kay. How did you get here? Do you know what's happening outside?" Director Danvers asked.

"A woman. She brought us here from our dimension." Conner answered.

"What woman? You two are the only ones here." Said Kara.

A white light flashed through the room. Heroes from different dimensions appeared out of thin air. Standing before them, was the woman from Vosh's dream.

Vosh rushed to her side. "Where are the rest of the Titans? Why didn't you bring them with us?" He asked.

The woman turned to him. "My instructions were clear, deliver Supernova to Earth Thirty-eight. The rest of your friends were to be left behind." She said.

"You mean left for dead!" Conner hissed.

Harbinger looked at Conner as if she were shocked to see him. Vosh took note of the look in her eyes. He gasped.

"You were going to leave him behind too, weren't you?" He asked. His fists balled into light at his side.

"I did. He shouldn't be here right now." Harbinger responded.

"If the goal is to save the universe, we're going to need more people than this. How could you just leave them behind?" Vosh asked. His power began to ripple throughout the room.

Conner took his hand and absorbed the searing energy. He leaned forward to whisper. "Babe you have to calm down. What's done is done." He said.

Vosh bottled his emotions. With them, his power was caged as well. He tore his eyes away from Harbinger and nodded at Conner.

The other heroes in the room watched them like hawks.
