Bruce Wayne's limousine pulled up outside an old hangar.



The driver gets out and gets Wayne's wheelchair out of the trunk. The driver pushes the wheelchair next to the door. Bruce Wayne gets out and gets in the chair. "Thank you Alfred." They both entered the building. After an exhaustive tour of the buidling. "It'll be perfect."

One year later. Bruce was in the same the building after an extensive renovation and excavation. Bruce was at a computer setup like in his Batcave. He sent an invitation to all those who agreed to join his alliance.

The invitation only included the GPS coordinates for the hangar and was signed with

Kara was in a business meeting discussing an acquisition. Tomas the VP of Acquisitions was a dull and boring guy whose voice perfectly matched his personality. She felt like firing him everytime he opened his mouth but he was genius at picking companies to buy. His latest suggestion was this fairly new research and development company that had the potentional to be extremely profitable. Their lead scientists Emil Hamilton & Silas Stone were the chief reasons to acquire the company. She studied the report while he talked. "Do whatever it takes I want that company." Her ⭐watch beeped, she checked it. She stood up. "If you will excuse me boys." She considered making up an excuse but she didn't. She went to her office. She changed into her new costume. She opened a window and jumped out. She let herself fall, she enjoyed the feeling. As she fell she pressed a button on a keyfob that closed the window she jumped out of.

When she was within twelve feet she started flying. She rushed to the coordinates. She landed outside. She noticed an elderly man waiting outside. "Welcome Miss Starr. Master Wayne is inside waiting for you." He opened the door. She admired how he didn't even flinch when she landed beside him. "We must talk later." She walked inside. She found a big round table with Bruce standing beside it. She studied the exosuit. It was crude compared to what the people of Argo used in the same situation but for human standards is was state of the art. She sat down at the table.

'Really, Bruce?  GPS coordinates?' Leonard thought, his mental voice split between amusement and exasperation.  'We spoke last week, you could have just mentioned it then.'

Brilliant though he was, Batman could be remarkably idiosyncratic at times.

'Three hours drive to Boston, then catch the Acela line to Gotham, crash in a hotel room, and rent a car for the last leg.

Well, duty called, even when on vacation.  The White Mountains would still be there after the meeting, and leaving soon would mean arriving before the evening game ended and the Boston subways filled to bursting.


Midmorning, the day after invitations were issued

Nevermore leaned against the wall next to the main entryway, watching the other here with interest, mentally checking off rumored heroes as they either arrived or ventured outside for fresh air.  People watching was both relaxing and informative; people were much more honest when they believed themselves unobserved, and on the entire properly only Batman and Nightwing were exempt from having Forgotten Nevermore.

He'd arrived barely past dawn, parking in the nearest lot - rather empty, it seemed either most invited heroes traveled under their own power or were based further away - and checked in with his patron before slipping back outside to observe.

Diana was in the ruins of Metropolis. She was there looking to see what could be salvaged from the Metropolis' museum. Whatever could be salvaged would sent off to various museums around the world or back to the private collection they came from. There was one beautiful painting that was nothing but tatters. Seeing that painting like that was a travesty that brought her to tears.

Her Qphone beeps. She checked the message. "Bruce is finally doing it." She put the coordinates into her map app. She attached her Qphone to the handlebar of her superbike. She headed down the road.

Over an hour later she pulled up beside the building. "Welcome Princess. Master Wayne is inside waiting for you." Diana walked up to Bruce. "Nice to see you again. Good to see you up again."

Rory Regan felt uncomfortable riding in the back of a cab in full costume. It seemed wholly undignified, especially since his driver kept looking in her rearview mirror and asking questions. He'd kept his answers brief but polite, doing his best to maintain some semblance of mystery.

Finally the cab pulled up in front of the reconstructed hanger.

"Hey, whoa!" said the cabbie, her eyes wide. "What's going on here?"

"No idea, bye!" replied Ragman quickly. He'd brought cash along in a money clip hidden within his costume; eyballing the total he took out enough to cover plus a more generous tip than he'd intended, as he didn't want to worry about change. "Don't wait. Go." Walking quickly but, he hoped, casually, he approached the building.

"Welcome, Master Rory," said the old man with a small bow. "Master Bruce is waiting for you inside."

"Master...who? Who's this Rory you speak of? I'm the Ragman!"

"Very good, sir. If you will...?" The man motioned to the doors.

Flummoxed, Ragman entered, walked down a hallway, and found himself inside a large meeting room, where several others had already gathered, including two very fit women. As all eyes turned towards him, Rory said, "Thank you for inviting me. I'm Ragman." Not knowing if he should stand or sit, Rory settled for leaning against the back on one of the chairs.

Bruce indicated for those not sitting to do so. He sat down. Once they did he continued. "As you know Wonder Woman & I were there the day Superman died to stop that monster the media dubbed Doomsday. If one threat capable of dismembering & killing Superman exists then the probability that another extists. We need prepare and be ready so that another death like that never occurs again." He slid a device across the table to everyone. "If you need help with a threat you can call for help on that." He stood up. If you'll follow me." He headed towards a wall and opened up. He headed down the stairs.

Power Girl grabbed the device. She examined it for a moment. She then opened her shoulder pauldron and stuck it inside along with the ⭐phone already there and plugged in. She then followed Bruce down the stairs.
