When Jayden was younger he had wanted to go to space more than anything. The unknown mysteries that space held had always held a special place in his heart. And now? Now he could visit space as often as he pleased and it was where he spent his time whenever he wanted to think free from the watchful eyes of Kal-El's sunstone face. In space he could be alone and not worry about anyone else coming to talk to him or berate him for not weight lifting and pushing himself harder in order to increase his already super, strength. Now as he sat on the surface of one of Jupiter's many, many moons. With a yawn he closed his eyes and laid back against the cool surface beneath him.
Superboy took in the calm feeling for a moment before opening his eyes slowly. When the silence became too much to bear he opened his eyes and sat upright. His knees were brought to his chest before resting his head down on his knees. There were not many moments in which he got time to himself and in the moments he did get to himself, he couldn't help but stay silent. The silence reminded him of the day his world went silent; the day his family was annihilated in a flash of heat and light. It was not a moment he liked to remember, but it was one that often surfaced every now and again and as the memory of his family came to be, tears began to fall from his face. His mother had promised to be with him no matter what happened, and his father and brothers had assured him that together they would fight whatever came against their family. Now only he remained. Funny that he'd be the one picked by fate to carry on a mantle as the last of his family and now as one of the last Kryptonians alive once more.
Sighing softly, he stood upright slowly before stretching his arms out to his sides. If the beeping in his ear was any indication, Kal-El wanted to speak with him. So with a simple touch to the comm in his ear he spoke. "I'm here. I'll be in orbit in five minutes." Jumping forwards allowed for him to be pulled into the weightless flow of space and as he he took in the warmth of the sun, he opened his eyes. Once he had gotten control of his own gravity, he began to fly towards the Earth once more. When the blue planet came into view once more, he increased his speed in order to push past the Earth's gravitational field without being tossed around on re-entry. The sound barrier broke as he passed through the clouds, though as he began to slow himself he took in the sights of the city he had entered near. "This definitely isn't Metropolis..."
He must really have been spacing out given that Gotham was not the city he had intended on arriving in. Landing atop Gotham University, he took to surveying the campus below him before touching the comm in his ear once more. "I'm in Gotham, will the city survive?" For a moment there was only silence and the occasional bark from Krypto before Kal's voice came back through the comm. "There are....villains, and others that I don't recognize, that are fending off what seems to be the beginning of a Starro invasion. Lex Luthor is among their numbers as well.....and he's wearing my crest on his chest." It seemed like Kal still wasn't entirely over the fact that the man who had tried to kill him on several occasions now bore his symbol. More than that, he was angry enough to be speaking in Kryptonese as opposed to English. Kal used to say it was so that no one eavesdropped on their conversation, but now he just assumed it was because he was just that angry. But, if he was in his position, then he'd probably feel the same amount of anger. It was just funny that he was only a program left behind but he had this much anger and resentment towards the male. "Focus, Kal. Is there anyone else there that you can pick out?"
"One of the people in the area is the young woman we saw before. The one who also wears my family crest. You really should get over to Metropolis to help th--"& Superboy groaned loud enough to cut the AI off. "They may be villains, but it's still their home and if Lex is in the center of it fighting off Starro, then I'm willing to bet he's probably got the villains organized. Our "Superwoman" always seems to pop up whenever there's trouble so I'm sure I'll run into her again. For now I'm gonna enjoy Gotham. You've got a friend here in Gotham right? Batman? I'll see if I can find him." It sounded like Kal wanted to say something else but Superboy turned his comm off so that he wouldn't have to keep entertaining the conversation with the male. Metropolis could survive without him for a short time. In any case, it seemed Gotham was in more need of his help as a loud scream drew his attention to the ground below him.
A pair of students were being held at gunpoint by two muggers. When it looked as though they were about to open fire Superboy dove off the roof of the building. Flipping just before he hit the ground, he landed in front of the two terrified college students, his body blocking the two bullets that would have hit them. "Now that's not very nice." Now the gunfire became more prominent and as he tried his best to make sure the boys behind him remained safe, it became evident that one of the bullets would eventually ricochet off of him and hit them. To that end his eyes glowed red as bursts of his heat vision were released. The handguns within the muggers' hands superheated prompting the males to drop them before turning tail to run. They would undoubtedly try the same stunt again which meant he'd have to chase them. But first things first. "Are you both alright?"

She had been getting flashes of images in her head every single time she’d don the cowl or slip her fingers into her gloves and gauntlets, of galavanting through the night without a care in the world while the wind rushed through her hair. Everything was wonderful at first, she enjoyed the rush of her escapades during the night.
However, the time quickly caught up with her once she realized it was yet another responsibility she had on her plate. Granted, she still enjoyed her role as one of Gotham’s “protectors”, but trying to balance school at the same time was definitely a struggle. Charlie was aware of that especially that night, as the sun had started peeking over the edge of the numerous skyscrapers visible from the one she was perched on. She had begun to doze off, despite having been conducting a stakeout that ended up being a no-show. Figures as much.
The vigilante nearly lost her footing as the chime of her phone’s alarm sounded off from her utility belt, signalling that the time had come already for the start of her first class that day. The brunette muttered a curse and set about hastily shutting it off as she looked out amongst the bright blue of the sky that she could have sworn was just dark.
“Guess it’s another one of those days,” she yawned, muffling the sound with the back of a leather-clad hand. It wasn’t unusual for her to have to skip a few classes here and there now that she’d taken on a case of her own accord. The big drug bust she was hoping to administer had yet to happen, but she’d missed countless calculus notes in the meantime. Batgirl stood up from her position, stretching her arms as far up as they would go, and set about finding the fastest way to the university so that she could at least pick up some work while she was there. Thank goodness for campus storage so she could keep a bundle of extra clothes ready whenever things like this happened.
Charlie had only planned on staying a few minutes to grab some notes before finding somewhere to hide out. She certainly hadn’t expected to have to stay on campus in costume for very long on top of it. It seemed as though Gotham City always had its own plans on how one’s day was going to go, and that seemed ever apparent as she swung atop one of the buildings to find a couple of muggers running away from a crime scene. It was one thing to try and steal from well-off, high class couples off the street, but it took another kind of awful to steal from college students. Her body lept into action way before her brain could even register what had happened, and she had apprehended the bad guys before they even had time to make it to the gate. Campus PD arrived not much later, taking both the would-be thieves and victims into their care and taking the problem out of her hands.
That just left Batgirl with the… very foreign looking guy who had taken it into his hands to intervene before she had even got there. ”You’re really not supposed to let the muggers run away, you know. They’re notorious for being repeat offenders,” Batgirl began as she cautiously approached the brightly colored stranger. He was definitely nothing like anyone she’d seen in Gotham before, even if she really hadn’t been around for all that long. ”What’re you doing here, anyways? Typically the uniform around here revolves around anthropomorphic animal motifs. Never seen someone like you before.”

It took some time to calm the two students down but once they were calm and were confident in their sanity, he turned on his heels in order to get ready to give chase to the robbers. Needless to say, his time checking for the students safety had given the robbers the opportunity to put quite a bit of distance between themselves and Superboy. Unfortunately for them he was "faster than a speeding bullet." But then the strangest thing occurred. He had decided to look for Kal's friend, Batman and there he was! Except...he was a she? The woman dressed like a bat had dismantled the poor robbers before they had a chance to acknowledge the fact that they were laying on the floor in cuffs. "I figured making sure the two students weren't going into to shock might take some priority?" he responded with a nod back towards the two students who had now taken their phones out.
He managed to hear one student call their friends to inform them on their safety as well as get them to come to their location in order to see the two heroes.Given the commotion Campus PD had brought with them, quite a crowd had slowly begun to appear around them. "In any case, they wouldn't have gotten far before I caught them but let's save that for later. Now I think we should go somewhere away from flashing cameras, right?" The people he believed to be responsible for the school's paper arrived with the brightest of cameras and with a smile and a wave, he walked over to the woman dressed like a bat before taking her hand in his own. "Hang on." His feet left the ground and as he pulled upwards, the woman dressed like a bat would soon begin to rise into the air with Sueprboy. Some of the students below begged for the opportunity to take a picture with either of them in order to prove to their friends that they had met a superhero but Superboy had no intention going back down there.
Having made it to the top of the university roof, he held her down some so that she could step onto the roof of the building on her own as opposed to Superboy just dropping her. "To your early question, I'm here because sometimes it can be very hard to navigate to the correct city when you're coming into the Earth's atmosphere from space. And I see that bat thing hasn't left Gotham yet....Truth be told the whole "bat thing" probably wouldn't work in Metropolis. It's too bright in the city and not enough dark shadows and whatnot." Shrugging his shoulders, he chose to remain floating instead of landing atop the rooftop next to the young woman. "Where I'm from, the "Big S" is all the rage right now. Everyone's got my symbol on them somewhere, but that's besides the point. I'm here because I'm looking for a friend of my brother's. Batman? Tall, dark, brooding? Ya know, Batman." In the air he drew the figure of a man before hunching his shoulders forwards in an attempt to make himself slightly more intimidating. "I came to find him and instead, one of his Bat Family members found me. Can you call your boss and let him know I'd like to speak with him? And what Bat are you anyway? Bat Woman? Batgirl? Batchick?" The last one made him pause before laughing at his own comment. Needless to say, he was searching for a Batman that no longer existed and hadn't even taken the time out to consider the possibility of him having somehow survived the purge of the world's former heroes. But he was Batman, right?
Kal had told him that there weren't many things that managed to stop Batman for long, so surely he would have survived this right? However, on the off chance that he hadn't survived....who was he talking to then? Was she like him in that she had just picked up the mantle of a former hero because it was necessary? He might as well ask. "Are you...even affiliated with Batman? I guess I should've asked that first, but can you blame me for seeing the bat symbol and just assuming so?" If she wasn't affiliated with Batman then he'd have to assume that the Batman he was looking for no longer existed. But like with his filling in for Superboy, did that mean there was another Batman somewhere out there?

Maybe the guy did have a point. The victims of a situation were always more important than anything, however having to work alone on her nights of scouting also taught her that leaving the perps to attend to them usually only ends up in more victims further down the road. That must be a perk in having a partner of sorts to fight with. Still, she wasn’t all that keen on admitting faults in what she said, so she bypassed saying anything about it in favor of answering his next statement.
”Yeah, I’m sure having powers at your disposal makes things very simple,” the brunette drawled, a tad bit sarcastic in nature. This may have been her first encounter with someone that most likely possessed some sort of superhuman abilities, but she could tell without even having to see anything. She’d read about some of Superman’s exploits during her period of digging around. While he does have the tendency to bring about some greatness in the world, it just… seemed almost too easy for him, while she had to run around with her “human weaknesses”.
Still, he did have a point. Quite a crowd had gathered around the pair of them, which could only be expected given their unmistakeable costumes. A flash went off somewhere off to her right and Batgirl had to admit that getting publicity here probably wasn’t the best idea. Even if she was a sucker for the limelight.
The vigilante almost flipped, however, when a much larger hand overtook hers. She was in the process of tugging hers away and lecturing him on being cheeky until she felt a sinking feeling as her feet lifted from the ground. Great, just great. All those reporters below suddenly felt a million miles away, though she couldn’t exactly say she was enjoying the ride. The headlines were already buzzing around in her head as well. "Superhero Scandal: A Tale Between Gotham and Metropolis” or something cheesy like that. This certainly was not the type of day she thought she’d have.
Batgirl released the breath she’d been maintaining, only relaxing once her feet were firmly on the roof. ”Warn a bat when you’re going to pull something like that, would ya?” She smoothed down her suit after complaining, and finally gave him her full attention as he spoke. There was definitely something strange about what he said, (Did he seriously say he came from space?) but she refrained from asking too much right away. ”You folks in Metropolis must have it easy over there, then. You don’t even seem to have to wear masks, while we're accustomed to pretending to be animals,” she laughed and gestured to her own cowl.
Scrunching up her face, she was seemingly indifferent toward the question posed at her. ”I know who you’re talking about. If there’s a ‘Batman’ running around here, though, that would be news to me. Most of the time I’m the only one doing the work around here.” Batgirl shrugged, trying to rack her brain for any trace of the Batman that used to reside within their city. If there was one, he sure as hell never bothered contacting her.”Technically it’s you that’s encroaching on my territory, buddy. And I resent those borderline sexist comments!” She stood up tall with her hands in fists, resting on her hips in some sort of “heroic” pose. She wasn’t angry in the least, rather there was a hint of smugness to her expression. ”If you couldn’t already tell, I work for no one. He isn’t me ‘boss’ if he even exists anymore, and it’s Batgirl if you must know.”
She snickered at her own comments, glancing down to the symbol in question before shrugging her shoulders. ”We share the symbol, but I can’t say I know the guy. What about you? Are you some sort of.. Superlad or something? Superman never struck me as the type for a sidekick.”

Was she joking? Surely she had to be joking, right? "Are you kidding me?" he questioned as sat cross-legged in the air, his hands holding onto his ankles as he sat forwards. "Metropolis is home to all manner of Gods and Monsters and Gotham is like, your low level thugs. The people I have to fight could decimate cities with a single action. Where I have to fight the likes of Darkseid and Braniac, you get to fight a man with a penguin fetish? How does that even remotely compare?" And wasn't there a Joker or something running around Gotham as well? How hard could fighting a clown really be? "And you only have to wear a mask when you've got something to hide. No family and no friends equals no mask for Superboy." He shrugged his shoulders indifferently before pulling his legs out from under him. Before, a comment such as that would have been hard for him to say, but as he grew older, being able to admit that his family no longer walked the Earth was becoming easier to say aloud without breaking down into tears. In any case, her words on the man in question only served to make him sigh.
Kal had told him that Batman was one of the few people he trusted with his life and that "if anyone would outlast them all, it would be Batman." And now there was no Batman. Or at the very least, there was no confirmed Batman yet. But it was safe to say that the Dark Knight didn't exist yet or nobody had the courage to take up his mantle. Not that he blamed anyone. Brooding 24/7 had to be a skill for sure. It was, however, nice to have a name to put to the costumed beauty in front of him. "Well all things considered, it's nice to meet you Batgirl." He lowered his head before bowing his head politely. "As I said before, I'm Superboy and if we're keeping score, I'm the second person to be called this and are you kidding me? Superman has a family of people that wear the shield on my chest. As it stands, there's me and one another woman, but I've got no idea who she is. She seems to be a hero though so I doubt she'd try and kill you if you said hello to her." He paused for a moment in order to truly consider the weight of his words. Would she try and kill them? As it stood she was fending off an attack by Starro in Metropolis so surely she had good intentions right?
Shaking his head clear from the confusing thoughts his mind was generating, he coughed for a moment in order to clear his throat before continuing. "Anyways, Superman has never been one for sidekicks. We're all family. Hell, there's even a Superdog, not very friendly with strangers, but part of the family nonetheless." He descended from the air before his feet tapped down onto the ground in front of Batgirl. For a moment he turned back in order to peer over the roof, watching as the students began to disperse when they realized their cameras would not get a good photo of the two heroes on the rooftop. "So, did I interrupt your....nightly patrol? Or whatever you call it? If I did, I'd be happy to make it up to you by helping out. I'm sure I can make up for the time you lost talking to me if you let me help?"

Sure, maybe she downplayed the actual threats to humanity as a whole that the Metropolis bunch dealt with on a regular basis, but it wasn’t exactly like he was trying to sympathize with her either. ”Alright, okay, I getcha’. Humanity is grateful and whatever, but I don’t think you Superfolk realize exactly what goes down in Gotham either.” She relaxed in her stance to lean on the giant air conditioning unit atop the building since this apparently was going to take awhile. ”The Penguin isn’t exactly the most noteworthy of villains but he’s had his share of reigning terror too. The Joker alone has killed hundreds, and mentally incapacitated countless others, so Gotham bad guys really are no laughing matter. No pun intended,” she summarized, as it probably wouldn’t be in either of their best interests for her to go into detail about each and every strange person to pop up.
The brunette scoffed, tapping at one of her cowl’s ears. ”Sure, that, or it’s necessary unless you want to be hunted down and have your entire family put in danger once these “low level thugs” find out who you are.” Really, it didn’t seem all that hard to figure out. A hum slipped past her lips as the guy continued to speak, and she had to admit that his company wasn’t entirely awful as she’d expected it to be. While they may differ significantly, she hasn’t had fun like this since she donned the cape and the cowl. ”A pleasure to make your acquaintance as well, Superboy,” she drawled in an overexaggerated manner. ”That just sounds like a mess, though. But I gotta admit a Superwoman is pretty darn cool.. There’s really no “family” dynamic going on here. It’s kinda every hero for themselves.”
Brown eyes followed Superboy’s gaze over the corner of the roof, realizing as well that they were finally out of the hot seat. Those reporters were probably running rampant trying to figure out a story to tell with the brief glimpse they managed to get. It was then that she finally looked at her “companion” once more. ”Eh, can’t really say there’s much left to my “nightly patrol”, seeing as it’s day time already. I… May have sorta, kinda slept through the job.” Batgirl laughed sheepishly, though she played it off with a shrug. ”I probably should be getting back to normal life---” In that moment, an alarm went off from one of her “bat” ears, signalling that one of her traps from the night before must’ve triggered while they were chatting. Well, well. It seems these ‘useless thugs’ were starting to get smart and dealing during the day.
”Actually, it appears that my work isn’t quite done yet. Usually I work by myself, but would you be opposed to going on a little trip with me and getting a peek at what I do? Only if that’s not beneath you or anything,” she kidded with a grin on her face, though she was a bit more jittery due to the urgency.

They could argue all day about which of their cities truly had it worse but ultimately the end result was always going to be the same. Both of their cities were plagued by villains who fit the standard of what each of them could handle. All of the big bad aliens from space attacked Metropolis and he himself was a big bad alien in the eyes of some people. Her city was plagued by villains who were more or less human. If he had to say so, it was just the universe's way of balancing things out. However, he definitely would've appreciated less alien menaces trying to eradicate him. What was the point of being one of the strongest on the planet if every alien threat was just as strong, if not stronger.
Every hero for themselves seemed like a lonely concept. Granted, he was fighting on his own as well since he had never officially met the "Superwoman" in person, but he assumed that they'd stick close to one another once they met. Solidarity and all that. "Not at all my lady. Lead and I shall follow. It's your city after all and everything looks the same in this perpetual darkness thing that your city has going on." What? He couldn't help but joke about such a dreary city that held animals as both villain and hero. From her utility belt she pulled forth a grappling hook before zipping away from him. "Alright. I admit, that's pretty cool."
Once it became obvious that he was going to be left behind, he took off after Batgirl, making sure to fly alongside her in case she needed him to do something. In a similar sense, it was because there was a part of him that swore she was going to fall from such a height and would need him to catch her before she became one with the pavement. Ah, the joys of superheroing.
