Freeland Stories

Synopsis: (Anansiverse Placement) Placement: Runs parallel to Time Masters: Road to Final Crisis / Post-Crisis on Infinite Earths events. One year after Jefferson Pierce retired as Black Lightning, Freeland is once again caught in the crossfire between street wars and cosmic destiny. The resurrection of Lala (Tattoo Man) and the arrival of Brother Eye mark the beginning of a new crisis. As Jefferson contemplates a life away from the mask, Mosi Carter/Kwaku Anansi intervenes-revealing that both Jefferson and Lala's fates are tied directly to the coming Final Crisis. Anansi brings Lala into the Ancestral Plane, unlocking a hidden layer of his metagene known as "Body Art Animation"-turning his haunted tattoos into living weapons. Now, Freeland faces both the rise of Tattoo Man the Antihero and the looming invasion of Darkseid's heralds. With the Outsiders fractured, Jefferson must reclaim his mantle not just for Freeland, but for the survival of Earth Prime itself and his town of Freeland.

Metahuman Jennifer Pierce found herself in love with Khalil Payne, except it seemed that fate did not want them together. Khalil was paralyzed by a bullet, which caused an evil man named Tobias Whale to form a deal with the striving track star. A robotic spinal implant was placed in his back so that he could walk again. Khalil soon became a runner for Tobias' mob, but was not repaid with gratitude. Tobias ripped out Khalil's robotic spine and he died a painful death-or so we thought. In reality, Payne was taken by a government agency called the ASA to become a weapon. They saved him, trained him, and implanted a brain chip that controlled his mind to the point that he killed his own mother with zero remorse. Khalil's alter ego, Painkiller, was a ruthless and twisted part of himself that was hidden but desperately needed for Khalil to survive. Painkiller was tasked to kill the Pierce family, however, Jennifer had powers of her own to keep everyone safe as her father was a direct relative of the first metahuman, causing her and her family's electric powers to be stable. Now, Khalil was brought back by TC, another metahuman whose abilities let him talk with machines. However, Khalil has several mental battles with Painkiller, which cause Jennifer to say she can no longer love him for who he is because he's become a weapon. He leaves in search of his true self, but what really will happen between Jennifer and Khalil with Freeland falling apart as a result of Tobias' return and destruction? This fanfiction is based on season 3 of Black Lightning, so I suggest you watch that before reading the spoilers in this story. Content is based on the Black Lightning Comic Book & TV show.
