Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Elevator finally reached the lowest level and the doors slid open. No one was inside.

Above the elevator, Midnighter waited, listening intently for the reactions of the people down the hall. He could hear someone from a distance, obviously spoke German as his first language, he said 'nein' first before anything else. But was he alone? Unlikely, if there was one thing he could figure from the dead body's up topside, there was more then one individual down here. How many was not really the issue, it was really how they were going to react to an empty elevator and how he could use that to his advantage.

Midnighter would wait no more than fifteen seconds, and then he was just going to burst through this elevator panel, people under him or nobody under him, and he was going to take care of whoever might be down there, waiting for him.

It was the softest of sounds, small dinklings upon the tiles of the hall into the rolling softness of the carpet of the elevator floor was what allowed Midnighter the smallest chance to change strategy. Whoever was down here was defiantly not your average goons, and it sounded like there was at least two of them down there.

Now it was up to what the Midnighter would do. Whatever it was he could smell the chemicals of the fumes rising from under him, quite a nasty sensation of . His enhanced immune system would defiantly spare him the effects quickly, but he was going to have to move fast anyway, they sounded like they wanted to leave without too much trouble, guess its time to make a bit of an entrance.

Midnighter suspended himself in a handstand at the edge of the removable panel, ready so that when he smashed through the false top he'd be able to catch the edge and send himself hurtling through the closing doors, which would occur in five seconds.

With three seconds to spare he whipped his body downwards, smashing through the ceiling of the elevator and, holding his breath,using the tips of his fingers lunged his body outward feet first through the elevators opening. Using leftover momentum to complete a full back-tuck two feet forward of the hall way and landing in a crouched fighting position, the elevator doors dinged again and began to close.

Now the Midnighter got a good look at who he was facing, a ferocious grin crossed his face.

"Hello, I'm the Midnighter, and I'm going to enjoy crippling the both of you."

Midnighter's grin didn't waver for a moment.

"Ah but you see, its already happened, I already know how this is going to end. You see, I'm one of those jerks who always skips ahead to the last page of a book before he reads it. I find an ending that I love and I just work my way back to the begining to figure out how it all went down. Its the same way my crazy brain processes out every possible outcome for a battle before the first punch is even thrown, so lets just cut to the chase shall we?"

Slightly altering his stance, the Midnighters hands opened towards his opponent, this amped up cyberman of clockwork gears and black magic, with grace and fluidity. It was going to be an interesting fight to be sure, but the ending was already written.

"I've already run through a trillion potential versions of this day in my head, including this particular 'I have the bigger d**k' contest we are about to have, and I've already settled upon the outcome in which I leave you and your little operation toppling like a house of cards, and me getting the blood washed off me by a handsome man"

A small knowing wink was cast in Krugers direction, the layed hint was not lost.

"Your move"

Batman noticed red marketings in the holographic map that shows the current location of the Titans and Wonder Women. He knew the red dots were trouble, or more importantly Cops. Bruce immediately tapped into the security cameras in the Lab and noticed a masked man blowing the Titan's cover. "Diana, change of plans. Get those kids out of there, the law enforcement are on their way and I believe someone got in the lab first then you guys." The weird thing about it is that there weren't any alarms triggered from the inside. Someone has eyes in there, and Batman doesn't like it. His mind began to calculate and dig deep into past memories and for some reason everything is leading up to Waller.

Superman regains consciousness and grabs self wondering how I got here,

"The last thing i remember was that strong wind passing me then the fire, what could have happened?"Superman is laying half on ground and his legs underwater, he must have been washed on shore. Superman Leans forward to get up. "Ah!" as he moves he feels a device stuck to the back of his neck. Superman grasps the device and yanks it from his neck," ...Brainiac,.....but who could have he gotten fast enough to sneak by me..."

Superman thinks long and hard about the situation, "Black Atom,..being that I'm vulnerable to magic he must have found a way to divert my attentions, we're both alike in speed so that's probably why I didn't see him.This project must be pretty important to involve such people." Superman try to contact league " This is Superman requesting permission to report to nowhere labs, I seem to have been set up..."
