The next morning Team Arrow walked back into the Cortex to see Barry, Caitlin and Cisco waiting for them. "So, did you find out anything from my blood test?" Laurel asked.

"Yes. I couldn't find any dark matter in your system, but you are a meta human. That being said, I would have to say that it is genetic, so that means that one of your parents have to have a meta gene as well. It could be dormant, but one of them has the gene." Caitlin said.

"That's interesting. So, you don't see anything wrong with me then?" Laurel asked.

"No. You are healthier than a lot of people that are your age. You will be fine." Caitlin said.

"Thank you. Now I just need to work on controlling this power so I can use it to help in the field." Laurel said.

"Yeah, and now that it is activated you will have to keep your mouth shut during certain other activities." Sara said while laughing at Laurel's blushing face.

"Anyways, is there any way that we can talk about forming this team while we are here? It would be nice to lay the groundwork for creating it." Oliver said

"Yeah, Kara will be here at lunch time with Superman, Batman, and Batwoman. I also we able to find information about a woman that I had heard rumors of over in Paris. Her name is Wonder Woman. I made contact with her and she is interested in joining the team as well." Barry said.

"That's good. We can use all the help that we can get. Do you still have the time vault here?" Sara asked.

"Yeah, why do you ask?" Barry asked.

"So, I am guessing Gideon told you about the Crisis then?" Sara asked.

"Yeah, she did. Have you faced it before? Do I die?" Barry asked.

"No, you find a way around it. But other people are not so lucky. That is part of the reason why I am back here now." Sara said.

"That's good to know. So, you are from 2024 then?" Barry asked.

"No, something happened, and it was moved up to 2019 in the timeline that I am from." Sara said.

"What happened to cause that to happen?" Cisco asked.

"I am not really sure. I was part of a team that traveled through time, so it might have been something that we did, or it could have been something that happened to your team. I do not know for sure. We never went into detail about it." Sara said.

"Why couldn't it have been Team Arrow that caused it?" Caitlin asked.

"Because Team Flash and Team Legends are the only ones that time travel, so something must have changed when someone from one of the teams time traveled." Sara said.

"Well, we are going to go get something to eat. Would any of you like to join us?" Laurel asked.

"Yeah, I will come. I need to eat anyways. It keeps me from passing out while I am running." Barry said.

"I will come too. I want to learn more about what our new friends." Caitlin said.

"Well, I guess I will go as well. No need in being her by myself." Cisco said.

They all went to Jitters and got some sandwiches for lunch. They talked about what Team Arrow did when they were not busy being Vigilantes. "So, you run a night club with your sister who is just turning 19?" Cisco asked.

"Yeah, it was rated on of the best clubs in the city." Oliver said.

"And you work as a bartender at the same night club?" Caitlin asked Sara.

"Yeah, I did some bartending when I was in college and I figured it would keep me nearby if the team was need while I was working. Not that that matters now, because we have relocated our base." Sara said.

"And Laurel is going to open her own law firm for the low- and middle-income families in the city?" Barry asked.

"Yes. I already have the office set up and I have a couple of people who have come to work with me as well." Laurel said.

"Well, you three sure do live an interesting life, even when you are not vigilantes." Cisco said.

"Definitely can't say that it is boring. That's for sure." Sara said.

"I actually had another job offer a few weeks ago, but I turned it down." Laurel said.

"Really? Why would you do that?" Cisco asked.

"Because I like being a lawyer, and if I took this job, I wouldn't be able to be a lawyer anymore. Being a lawyer allows me to be able to help people in my day and night job." Laurel said.

"What was the other job?" Barry asked.

"Being security at Ollie's club." Laurel said.

"Yeah, I don't think that would be quite as fulfilling as being a lawyer." Barry said.

"Not at all." Laurel said.

They all finished up their sandwiches and headed back to STAR Labs so they could have their first official meet as the Justice League. Soon Supergirl, Superman, Batman, Batwoman, and Wonder Woman were there for the meeting as well. Once everyone was seated White Canary started to talk. "Thank you all for coming. I am glad that we were able to set this up on such short notice. The formation of this team is to combat any force that comes that could possibly end the world. We will also have to keep an eye on our own cities as well. If you ever need help defeating someone, we will all be there for each other. Are there any questions?" White Canary asked.

"What happens if we have a threat in our city and something happens that needs the League as well?" Batman asked.

"Your city will always be your main objective. That is why we will be trying to recruit as many people as possible to be members of the Justice League." Green Arrow said and Batman nodded.

"Are their any other people who you can think of that should join the team?" White Canary asked.

"I have heard about a man who can swim really fast and maybe even control the water. I think he might be of some interest to us." Superman said.

"Yeah, and Nightwing might be interested as well." Batwoman said.

"Ok, we will send out invitations to those two. Does everyone agree with this?" White Canary asked and everyone nodded.

"Ok, so now that we have finished with that, I think we have a good governing counsel here. Let's meet everyone month for now so we can discuss how things are going in our cities and also see if there are other people out there that need to be recruited as well." Green Arrow said and everyone nodded again.

"Ok, so thank you for coming. We will see you next month." White Canary said and everyone got up to leave.

"Well, I think that went well for our first meeting." Oliver said.

"Yeah, it did, and the league will only get bigger and stronger as time goes along." Sara said to Oliver as she, Oliver and Laurel left STAR Labs to get to the train station so that they can get back to Star City.
