Mt. Justice: A Hero's Fall

[AnT]

Rhode Island, Happy Harbor- May 7




"Recognized: Hawkgirl - 066. Unknown signature detected; requested by Hawkgirl."

And one of the tubes in the room shined...

Letting a red-haired woman, with a leather jacket and jeans, and a gold staff, walk out.

[bluelonewolf]

Followed by a rather ridiculously attractive woman with black hair, wearing armor that looked like a one-piece bathing suit and boots with a tiara, bracelets, and boots. And a lasso on her hip.


She looked around, stunned.
[...That's it. Sorcery...]

Um, Chloe? You've still got that cowboy in Texas on hold.

[AnT]

On one of the computers, across the room, a blonde girl with average clothes held up a fingers, as she was busy with a phone call.

But a young redhead, dressed like a bat, hurried over to the two, with wide eyes at the staff. "I heard everything! Did..."

"Yea, kid..." she sighed, gripping the staff hard, as the horrid memories came flowing back.

[bluelonewolf]

I...suppose I should listen in. It sounds that this is very important...and I should not interrupt.
Diana started to look around, inspecting things...knowing touching things was probably a bad idea.

[AnT]

With her phone call done, Chloe ran over to the girls. "I can't believe it....who the hell did this?!" she cried, with a bit of anger. Jack Knight, the Starman, was the one who helped convince them to start up the team. With the world heading to war, they need to work together to quell it. And now their inspiration is dead.

"I-I don't know..." she said, feeling confusion flowing in her mind. "He should be dead. I made sure of it!"

"Wait...you don't mean the Icicle, right? Wasn't he in a vegetable state; not dead?"

"Close enough,"

[bluelonewolf]

Well, the name made enough sense to Diana, who was starting to slowly grasp the language being spoken around her. That and wandering around London for a couple hours.


"...The one...I broke his arm?" asked Diana, trying English the first time.
Being mystically given intelligence and wisdom by Athena was great.

[AnT]

Of course Shiera didn't know that, which she gawked at her. "...I thought you didn't know English."

"Uhh....who's Ms. Patriot?"

"This is Diana, who says she's princess of amazons."

"We have aliens, mutants, and gods running around, Shiera." she shrugged. "Amazons are nothing to sneeze at."

Looking over at the tall amazon, "You broke his neck too? Please say yes."

[bluelonewolf]

"...No. I simply wanted to hold him in place until I understood further what was going on."
She looked at Shiera with a smile.
"Wisdom of Athena. I just had to listen to all that...English? For a while. Those couple of hours that you were separated from me, I walked around the city and listened."
In fact, her voice was accented with a slight British tinge now. Not much, though.

[AnT]

"Athena? Where are you from, exactly?"

[bluelonewolf]

"The isle of Themyscira, home of the Amazons..."
She frowned. "Though considering the difference in the technology of your world...and the language change...I would guess that you do not know of it."

[AnT]

(Had a discussion with Bluesy. Have to change the staff to belt, that Shiera has.)

And suddenly, Shiera zipped up to the tall woman, with sparkles in her eyes, very different from her cold and angry look in them. "Themyscira?!? Are you serious?! My husband and I been looking for that place!!!"

"Easy there, killer," said Chloe, gently pulling the older woman away from Diana. "There's a no-fangirlism policy in this facility."

Blinking, she forced her frown back on her face, and looked away. "I mean...oh, sure. Who cares..."

Not buying it, and thinking how hilarious that was, Batgirl laughed.

[bluelonewolf]

"...Oh, so you do know of it," said Diana with a blink, "No outsiders are allowed. And to be honest, I doubt I myself am welcome back. No one is to leave, either. I...did."
She frowned and rubbed her arm. "My mother would be...rather displeased with me were I to return."

[AnT]

(Scratch that. I'm switching Sylvester to Jack Knight who died.)

Trying to ignore Barbabra and trying to look unemotional, Shiera rubbed the staff.

"So your mother won't bring someone to hunt you down?"

[bluelonewolf]

"Unlikely. She wouldn't know where I went unless, well...Hermes might tell her, but he usually is not in the habit of being a tattletale..."

[AnT]

"And let's hope not. The last thing we need is getting some gods pissed at us, too."

"Okay, that's great," she impatiently said, "But can someone hook those tubes to Metropolis? I gotta get this to the museum...and find Diana a place to stay."

"Why not here?"

"We haven't set this place up like a hotel, yet." Frowning at the red-haired woman, "What about the other Justice Society members? The likely thing I can think of for the Icicle to kill Jack is to take revenge on its members, so we need to warn everyone."

"That's MY problem," she scowled at her, "I'll do that. You just drop us over to Metropolis and forget this happened."
