Chapter 13 Summer Loving Part 3

"ARGH!" Violet El Bridget coughed out a mixture of salty sea water and blood, as her eyes shot open. Violet's five senses were maxed out, as she looked around her in fear. The young and beautiful billionaire was covered in blood that was not her own, chillingly cold rain water, and sand from the Bali beach she lay flat on. Violet looked around, and then realized that several figures stood away her. She could not tell if she was delusional or if what she saw was true, but these figures were the Teen Titans. Or at least, one of them was.

Black Panther, Arrow, and Xenovia stood over Violet, as her glassy eyes moved from one figure to the other. The three heroes were moving their mouths, but Violet's ears could not register what the costumed teenagers were saying. Violet then saw the three heroes look behind them, and Elizabeth Maybley ran passed the three heroes, and kneeled next to the wounded billionaire. Elizabeth said something to Violet, but once again, the young woman could not register the noises around her.

Violet rested her head in the sand, and glanced at the dark and chaotic ocean, and was terrified at what she saw.

Violet saw her once grand and mighty hotel resort, toppled over and burning in the ocean. The destroyed resort was on its side and was floating out towards the open sea. Violet shook her head in confusion,

"S…S…" Violet whispered, as she glanced on the beach front, and saw several dismembered women and children washing up to shore. Violet blinked in fear, and she looked the other direction, but then saw several charred and unrecognizable bodies.

"Satellizer." Arrow said, trying to finish Violet's sentence. Violet glared up at the archer, and this caused Arrow to raise his eyebrows to the woman.

"STATIC!" Violet yelled! "STATIC DID THIS!"

Violet cried this louder and louder, which caused Arrow, Xenovia, and Panther to all glance at each other.

Violet once again cried bloody murder on Static, when a sudden flood of memories entered her mind.

"Explosion…" Violet gasped, suddenly jerking forward. Elizabeth placed her hand on Violet's chest, as the woman began ranting again, "There was an explosion! The building…exploded…"

Violet then looked at Arrow and locked eyes with him, "The building began to fall, and I saw lightning trying to hold it together…Static…"

Violet then looked at Panther, and she whispered, "Vir…Virgil…held the building together."

Panther and Arrow widened their eyes in surprise, and Elizabeth removed her hand from Violet's chest. Panther and Arrow looked at each other, and Xenovia frowned at the young woman.


Twenty Minutes Earlier

Virgil's felt his subconscious slowly fading away from him, as a mixture of fear and anger built up inside his soul. He could not explain this feeling of dread, nor could he stop it. He simply heard a series of soft gasping noises.

"Static…"

"Static…"

"Static…"

"You are nothing." Louis' voice rang in Virgil's conscious, "A filthy beast!"

As Virgil's subconscious got darker, he heard Vilgax whisper, "You are doomed to fail."

Slowing sinking into an abyss, Virgil heard Satellizer's voice say in a disappointed tone, "You don't belong here, Static."

"Give up." Ebon mockingly laughed in Virgil's head, "Everyone hates you."

Virgil finally broke, and his soul's fire went out. Virgil faded into the blackness and disappeared.

"Virgil." A voice softly whispered out. After a few seconds, the voice became clearer. Virgil's mother's voice suddenly said with as much confidence as possible, "Virgil. It's time to get up."

"AAHH!" Virgil's eyes shot open, and he felt himself tumbling towards the raging ocean below him. Virgil directed his eyes upward and saw massive chunks of what was left of the El Bridget's massive building tumbling towards him and the ocean. The building's top floors were blazing out of control and was blasting out hundreds of flaming shards of concert and steel. The center of the skyscraper began dangling out to its side, and it was clear the building was about to snap in half and fall into the ocean. Seeing this, Virgil felt energy build up in both his hands and feet, and suddenly caught himself, in midair.

Virgil propelled himself upward and zipped between two massive shards of burning steel beams. Virgil used his magnetism on the steel beams and then sling them towards the ocean.

As Virgil continued to fly upward, he saw an elevator, with clear walls, sail downward pass him. The elevator had several people inside, and they all screamed in terror. Virgil punched his hand forward, and his electricity grabbed onto the elevator cables. Virgil then tossed his hand outward, and the elevator whizzed out of the way of the falling shards and fell towards the ocean. Virgil then pulled his hand up, and the elevator slowed its descent until it landed in the ocean with a minimal impact.

Virgil turned his attentions back to the crumbling building, when a large slab of concrete slammed into him. Virgil growled in pain and flipped the concrete to be facing the burning building again. Virgil used the concrete as a springboard and landed on a higher slab of steel.

Virgil launched himself off the steel and closed in on the crumbling center of the skyscraper, that was finally giving out. Virgil summoned two massive balls of electricity in his hands, and then he slung them out towards the ocean. All the metallic debris and soaring shards of metal were wildly pulled towards the descending balls of lightning, now making Virgil's path to the center of the building clear. As Virgil soared through the splitting center of the skyscraper, he punched his fist at the tipping side of the building, and a large arc of lightning shot forward. The lightning arced outward, locking onto multiple metal beams that had already snapped out of place. Virgil then launched his other hand downward towards the building under him that was still in place. Lightning shot out and connected to each beam that was still intact.

As all the lightning locked in place, Virgil was jerked into a hard stop, and his arms immediately stretched outward as the building continued to tip and fall down towards the ocean!

"AAAAAARRRRGH!" Virgil let out a roar of pain, as he used as much will power as possible to keep the building from falling into the ocean! As one band of lightning broke off, Virgil mentally caused a new arc of lightning to take its place. Blood began flowing out of Virgil's nose and ears, as the building's descent began to slow down.

Virgil pulled his arms closer together, as he struggled with the weight of the two buildings. As the lightning began shifting the fallen sector of the building back upward, Virgil's eyes widened in pain. A sharp pain jabbed into his right shoulder, and his right collarbone suddenly snapped. Virgil roared in pain, as all of the electricity surrounding his disappeared in a flash, and for a split second it seemed as if Virgil was hovering suspended in the air. As gravity began taking its effect on Virgil, the top half of the El Bridget skyscraper drove top first into the ocean. The top half of the building exploded into a ball of flames as it hit the water, and the flames began spreading over the ocean's surface.

Virgil tumbled down towards the burning adrift sector of the El Bridget building, completely unconscious.


The Present

"Listen, Mrs. El Bridget. Where is Satellizer?" Xenovia narrowed her eyes at the woman. Violet continued to ramble and rant, and then Xenovia shook her and strictly said, "Listen to me, Mrs. El Bridget! Where is Satellizer?! And where is Virgil Hawkins?"

Violet then coughed out more blood as she forced out the words, "Sate...Satell…"

"Satellizer?" Panther said, as he walked over to Violet's side, and his mask's yellow eyes began to glow brightly. "Where is Satellizer? Xenovia searched the wreckage for her...and any other survivors. She didn't find many people still alive. Where is Satellizer?"

"Airplane…" Violet whispered.

"What airplane?" Arrow asked Violet, who shivered, and pulled away from Elizabeth. Arrow looked at Elizabeth and growled, "Maybley, tell her to calm down and tell us where Virgil is!"

Elizabeth glared Arrow and quickly shot back, "She just survived a skyscraper exploding and crashing into the ocean! A normal person doesn't just recover from that! She's traumatized! So, stop being such a hard ass, Harper."

"AIRPLANE!" Violet yelled loud, but her screams were drowned out by a boom of thunder.

"What about airplanes?" Xenovia asked Violet.

"There is a single airport on this island." Panther nodded towards Arrow and then said, "So that might be where Virgil and Satellizer are."

Arrow then nodded and clicked his earpiece, "Diggle, pull the jet along the beachline and pick up Xenovia and Elizabeth. Tell Felicity and Thea to prep the med-bay!"

Xenovia and Elizabeth looked at Arrow, and Xenovia growled, "What is the meaning of this, Roy? Why are you benching us?"

"Exactly?" Elizabeth growled to Arrow. "You're not the leader, Azari is."

"Technically speaking, Peter is the leader." Panther said to the group, and then he looked at both Xenovia and Elizabeth, "But, it would be wise for you two to escort Mrs. El Bright onto the jet and get her to the med-bay. Arrow and I will pursue the airport lead."

Xenovia and Elizabeth both mumbled in disagreement, but Arrow and Panther were already leaving the area. Both Xenovia and Elizabeth glanced at each other, both obviously annoyed by how the two males in the group placed them on side duty, while they went to fight. Xenovia and Elizabeth glanced at each other, and then slowly got to work.

Arrow and Panther climbed on top of two identical black motorcycles and began zooming through the rain, down a narrow road, with the raging ocean surrounding them. Arrow glanced at the massive skyscraper that burned in the ocean.

"Our situation continues to get worse, Harper." Panther said in his com. Arrow nodded to Azari, as the Vibranium cladded hero continued, "Spiderman, Saeko, Benjamin, and Mirajane left us to travel into space."

"Not to mention the fact that Moka has returned to the demon world…or whatever you call it." Arrow retorted back to Panther.

"Takumi and Superboy have both vanished without a trace." Panther softly spoke, "I may be the newest member, but I hoped that at least Superboy would not leave us. And he has left no evidence to where he may be. He might be off-world, in his Fortress of Solitude, or anywhere."

Arrow glanced at Panther, who had his head lowered for a moment. Before Arrow could say anything comforting, Panther lifted his head back up and continued zooming down the road, "We will have to make do with who we have at the moment. Now, we are nearing the airport."

Arrow and Panther looked outward at the airport and saw the emergency lights flashing on the runaway. The massive typhoon that was encompassing the island grounded all the airplanes. However, even through all the rain and furious winds, both young heroes could clearly see two planes lining up on the runway. One was a massive commercial airliner. The other was a small private jet.

"What is the meaning of-" Panther started, when a jolting arc of lightning crashed through the roof of the airport, and both Panther and Arrow pulled the brakes on their cycles. Both heroes looked at each other and then nodded.

"Virgil." Both whispered.


Several people complained about their missing flights, as Virgil burst through the airport doors, covered in sweat and mud. Several people looked at him in confusion and disgust, but the young metahuman was not worried about that. Virgil scanned the area, and saw Louis walking with Holly on his left, and Satellizer on his right. Both Pandora were in their Volt Texture and surrounding the three were twelve heavy guarded security guards.

Virgil began pushing through different airport commuters, and each of them thought he was disgusting because he was covered in mud and sweat.

"Eww. Gross." One said. Others began adding in on the shaming, but Virgil powered through the people.

"LOUIS!" Virgil yelled through the crowds of people. Louis glanced behind him and smiled as he saw Virgil. This caused Satellizer and Holly to look back, and Satellizer's eyes widened in fear. Holly, whose eyes were empty, just frowned at the young hero.

"I can deal with him." Holly said, as her hand began glowing blue.

Satellizer looked at Louis and then cried, "NO!"

Holly glared at Satellizer, then looked at Louis. Louis smirked at both Pandora, then he nodded, "No Holly. We'll let our security handle this. Let's go." Holly stopped her summoning, and then turned, as Louis began walking away. Satellizer glanced at Virgil, who yelled out to her.

"SATELLIZER!" Virgil yelled, as the twelve-armed security turned to him, all pulling out automatic weapons. Virgil saw this, but he then growled and continued charging head first at the armed men.

"Come on, my dear sister." Louis purred to Satellizer, who winched and lowered her head. Satellizer turned from Virgil and began following Louis and Holly out of the terminal.

One of the security guard aimed his rifle at Virgil and opened fire, letting out a spray of gunfire in the airport. Virgil pushed his hands forward, trying to create an electric shield in front of him. For the most part, an electric shield formed in front of him and the bullets were repulsed by Virgil's magnetic powers.

Everyone in the airport began scrambling around in fear, as the other security guard began opening fire at Virgil too.

Virgil thought to himself, 'They're firing at me in a populated airport! I have to protect these people…but Satellizer.'

Virgil punched his fist forward, blasting a jolt of energy forward into the face of one of the guards. The guard was launched backwards, as side of his face was scorched by the electricity. Virgil then punched the ground, sending an electric shockwave, blasting the guards back.

Virgil glanced to his left, and saw that through the fleeing crowds of people, the airport security was moving in on him.

'I don't have my suit on. They don't know it's Static fighting these guys.' Virgil thought to himself.

As two of Louis' security detail approached Virgil, Virgil hopped into the air kicking one of the guys in the head. As Virgil landed, the other opened fire at Virgil point blank, who barely ducked out of the way and sweep under the guard's legs.

One of the details aimed his rifle at Virgil's chest, so Virgil aimed his finger at the guard, and a bolt of lightning charged into the man's rifle, and it exploded sending a hail of sharp pieces of metal into the man's arms and chest.

Virgil charged forward at three guards, who were still recovering from the shockwave. Virgil charged his fists, and socked one of the guards in the chest, blasting him backwards and out of a window down on the tarmac. As Virgil whipped around to the other two, one of the men opened fire, and Virgil put up a field of protection around himself. The bullets went soaring around Virgil, and this time the bang baby could not be concerned where they would land.

Virgil then clapped his hands together sending forward a massive wave of electricity, that zapped the two men in front of him.

Virgil began breathing heavily, as he felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. Virgil thought to himself, 'Holding the building together…took a lot of power out of me.' Virgil then glanced down, and a bullet wound in his lower abdomen. The metahuman took a knee and groaned in pain.

The remaining security detail surrounded Virgil, who coughed up blood. Virgil heard the guns cocking around him, and he glanced over to see the airport security still struggling to get through the remaining panicking citizens. Virgil saw out of the corner of his eye, that a large commercial airliner was taking off. On the next runway, a private jet with El Bright on the side was also taking off.

Virgil growled in anger, then he yelled, "ENOUGH!" Virgil mustered all his strength and called down a massive arc of lightning that crashed through the roof, and the lightning arced out going through the chests of the remaining assailants surrounding Virgil. All the assailants screamed out in a mix of horror and pain, as the electricity jolted through their bodies.

The electricity began to die down, as security finally made it through the crowd. One of the airport security guards aimed his weapon at Virgil's head and then fired, when Panther put his hand on the barrel of the gun. The gun fired, and Panther's Vibranium suit completely absorbing the kinetic energy of the bullet.

Panther pushed the guard away, as the others aimed their weapons at him and Virgil. Arrow ran beside Panther and readied his bow. The two faced the gathering security guards, as Virgil struggled to stay conscious.

"Now would be a nice time to fill us in, man!" Arrow grumbled to the kneeling Virgil.

Virgil coughed, "He has Satellizer."

"Who?" Panther asked, as he continued glaring at the security guards.

"Louis…El Bridget." Virgil groaned, as he lifted himself up to his feet. Arrow, Panther, and all the airport security looked at Virgil and saw his gunshot wound. The security guards began lowering their weapons, as Virgil growled to them, "Unless you want an international crisis with the Teen Titans, stand down."

Both Panther and Arrow glanced at Virgil in shock.

Panther whispered, "Virgil, is it wise to-"

"I don't give a damn about my identity right now." Virgil said, as he began rubbing his wound with electricity. Virgil took a knee, as he felt the warm blood flowing out of his wounds. The Bang Baby growled in pain, as he saw the El Bridget private jet take off from the tarmac.

Panther and Arrow both supported Virgil up, as the trio began heading towards the exit. Virgil muttered, "We…can't let…him get away-"

"You're bleeding out." Arrow grumbled to his dying friend. "We can go after Satellizer. But it won't matter if you die along the way."

As Arrow and Panther tried to pull Virgil along, Virgil pushed both heroes off of him and began charging towards the windows that were over the tarmac.

"STOP!" Arrow yelled, as he and Panther began running after Virgil, who charged up energy in his fists. Virgil slung a ball of lightning forward at the windows, and the blast of lightning arced all around the room.

Arrow hopped on top of a woman and her child, barely dodging the blast of lightning. Panther leapt forward and allowed the lightning to hit him, and his Vibranium armor absorbed the lightning and sent the Wakandan King flying backwards.

Virgil leapt down to the tarmac as the people still remaining in the terminal witnessed the destruction that had just occurred in front of them.

Virgil began running after the El Bridget jet, which was already flying off, with a large passenger jet taking off in the other direction. Virgil then suddenly used his electricity to propel him off the ground, and he began rocketing towards the El Bridget jet. As Virgil closed in on the jet, he could continue to feel the rain sapping his powers away.

Arrow and Panther ran over and watched as Virgil sailed toward the ascending jet like a lightning bolt, when suddenly the El Bridget's jet exploded in a fiery and brilliant explosion.

"VIRGIL!" Arrow yelled, as Panther blinked in shock and backed away from the window. The exploded jet pieces tumbled into the ocean and were quickly swept under the raging waves.

Panther shrugged to come to words, as he pushed the com on his ear. After Panther continuing to activate his communicate piece, Xenovia's voice came over the coms.

"What was that explosion we just caught on the sensors?" Xenovia said with worry in her voice. Xenovia waited for a couple seconds, as Arrow and Panther remained silent. Xenovia then finally yelled, "What is going on?! Roy?! Panther?! Are you two alright?"

"We…we are fine." Panther said, as Arrow looked at him in shock. Panther then continued as he began moving towards the exit, "Call the local authorities and tell them to prepare an ocean salvage team.

As the two teenage heroes exited the airport, a black Wakandan jet hovered down to them. Panther and Arrow looked at each other in fear as the hangar doors opened. Xenovia and Elizabeth looked down at the duo, and then began pulling them aboard.


"NOOOO!" Satellizer in horror, as she watched the El Bridget jet explode into flames, from the large passenger plane that was taking off in the other direction. Satellizer covered her mouth and began sobbing, as Louis and Holly sat across from her.

Louis, Holly, and Satellizer were the only people onboard of the large airliner, which left most of the seats empty and void of life.

Louis looked back at the explosion from out of his window and he mockingly laughed, "Well, not so tough after all, Virg." Louis smirked at Holly, who remained silent. He then directed his attention to Satellizer, who fell to the ground sobbing once again.

Louis growled to her, "Get off the ground! Don't waste your tears on that filthy nig!" Louis slapped Satellizer in the face, and this only caused her to continue to cry. Louis' eyes became filled with hate, and he growled to Satellizer, "What makes him so special? HE IS NOTHING!"

Louis then yanked Satellizer off the ground and pulled her face up to his, "And so are you!" Louis pushed her back on the ground, and then turned away from her. He then glanced at Holly, and nodded, "I'm going to check with the pilot and make sure everything is in order."

As Louis began walking down the aisle, Satellizer's soft sobs began to turn into furious growls. Louis noticed this and glanced back at his sister, seeing that Satellizer was now rising to her feet with rage in her eyes.

"YOU BASTARD!" Satellizer summoned Nova Blood and launched herself at Louis, who smirked at this sight. Satellizer gabbed Nova Blood at Louis' chest, but Holly appeared before him in a flash, catching Satellizer's blade in her barehand.

"WHA-" Satellizer said in shock, as Holly twisted and delivered a punishing roundhouse kick to Satellizer's chest and set her flying back through the seats. Satellizer slid to a stop and flipped to her feet, glaring at both Louis and Holly.

Louis began clapping in excitement, as Holly waved her hand in front of him. "This is so hot! My two girls! Fighting over me!"

"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Satellizer growled, as she lifted Nova Blood. Louis blew her off and snickered.

"Are you kidding me?" Louis said. He poked Holly in the back, as she continued to stare down Satellizer. "This is Holly Rose. The Holly Rose. Top Pandora back in Europe. She can do sh*t that you can't even imagine."

Satellizer ignored Louis' taunts and charged the duo again. Holly closed her fists, and they were both engulfed in her blue Pandora energy. Satellizer slashed down at Holly, and suddenly a blade made of blue and silver crystals appeared in each of Holly's hands. Holly blocked Satellizer's headshot, and she pushed the enraged Pandora back.

Satellizer stumbled backwards, and Holly saw an opening and zoomed forward at her. Satellizer lifted her Nova Blood in defense, but Holly completely eclipsed her. Holly appeared behind Satellizer and slashed both her swords into Satellizer's back.

Satellizer roared in pain, and Louis winched in anger. Satellizer dropped Nova Blood and fell on her knees. Holly crossed her swords at Satellizer's neck and growled, "Enough. I've had enough of you, and now you die!"

Louis stepped forward and growled, "That's far enough, Holly."

Holly hesitated for a second, but then began pulling off when Satellizer began sobbing again.

"Just kill me." Satellizer whimpered and put her face in her hands. Both Louis and Holly were taken aback by this. Satellizer then continued, "You killed…the one person…I loved."

Satellizer then cried out, "I just want to die!"


"Two explosions!" Virgil heard, when his eyes shot open, and he jetted forward in fear. Suddenly a soft hand caught him, and Virgil looked around in fear.

The Bang Baby lay on a hospital bed surrounded by Roy, Xenovia, Elizabeth, Azari, Diggle, Felicity, and Kaho. Virgil blinked in confusion, and everyone quieted down and glanced at him.

Virgil gulped and then asked, "Wha…whe…"

"You're at West Genetics, Virgil." Kaho said, as she put her hand on top of his. "Your friends brought you here, well because you were half dead when they found you."

Virgil looked at Roy, who was out of his uniform and wore a brown leather jacket and jeans. Roy locked eyes with Virgil, and then turned away from him. Virgil glanced at Azari, who was in Wakandan robes.

"What is going on?" Virgil asked, "And where is Satellizer? Did I…save her?"

Elizabeth took a seat on the other side of Virgil's bed, and rubbed the back of her neck, "Listen, Virgil. You've been out cold for three days. After the explosion-"

"The resort explosion?" Virgil asked.

"No." Diggle shook his head, "That was the first explosion, kid. There was a second explosion that happened on the El Bridget jet. You were caught in it, and you fell into the ocean."

"WHAT?!" Virgil yelled.

The Bang Baby grabbed his head and tears began flowing out of his eyes. Virgil looked at Azari, who frowned at him. "Did…where's Satellizer? Did I save Satellizer?"

Azari shook his head, "There were no bodies found in the wreckage, and we searched for a good while. She was not on the plane."

Before Azari could continue, Roy retorted to Virgil, "Oh, now you want to worry about saving people?"

"Roy." Xenovia strictly said to him, but the archer continued.

"You do understand that four of the guys you fought at the airport are in critical condition, Virgil?" Roy nodded to him. He then shook his head and growled, "Two guys are in surgery right now, and we don't know if they'll pull through."

Virgil's eyes widened in shock, and he glanced at Azari, who nodded. "Harper is correct, Virgil. You nearly killed two of the men on Louis El Bridget's security detail. And seriously injured several more."

"I…I…" Virgil lowered his head and fell silent. Kaho placed her hand on his shoulder and pulled him into a hug.

Elizabeth looked at Azari and jumped to Virgil's defense. "Wow! Let's just calm down for a second. We aren't seriously going to blame Virgil for those people's injuries, are we?" Elizabeth glared at Roy, "He's supposed to be your friend, but you accuse him of wanting to kill those guys."

"Excuse me." Roy took a step towards Elizabeth and said, "He may not have meant to do it, but we still have to answer for what happened."

"If we 'answer' for what we've done in the past, why don't you come out and answer for the several homicides you're wanted for back in Star City?" Elizabeth growled to Roy, who rolled his eyes at her.

Felicity then jumped in and added, "That wasn't Roy who was in the hood, that was someone else who is close to us. So, you might want to back off that train, right now."

"The point is," Roy directed his attention back at Virgil, "You're wanted for questioning, Virgil. That's why we brought you here in secret. You've tied our hands behind our back, and we still don't know what's going on!"

Virgil looked at everyone and said, "What do we do? I…I didn't mean to do any of this! But Satellizer is missing!" Virgil then tried to stand, but Kaho and Elizabeth moved to stop him.

"We have no idea where Satellizer is." Azari nodded, "And we are short staffed, so none of us can search for her and leave you behind unguarded."

"I don't need your protection." Virgil growled to the king, who raised an eyebrow at him. Virgil looked at around and narrowed his eyes at Azari, "Where are rest of the Titans? Why is it only you?"

Azari then said, "Moka left as soon as she said she would. Superboy went to respond to a beast attacking Tokyo, and we haven't been able to contact him ever since."

"What about Peter? Ben?" Virgil said in confusion.

"Ben took Mirajane with him on a Plumber's mission, and Peter and Saeko went with them." Azari crossed his arms. "Takumi has disappeared, leaving his communicator behind. I had tried to get in contact with you and Satellizer days before the explosion, but you two turned off your communicators. So, I called in the reserves."

Virgil looked at Roy, Xenovia, and Elizabeth and thought to himself, 'These are the reserves Peter had in mind? Really?'

Virgil moved Kaho's hand off his chest and realized that he had several bandages over him. Virgil climbed out of bed, and Diggle moved over to support him.

"You really shouldn't be out of bed." Felicity warned.

"I don't have a choice." Virgil groaned. "If Satellizer is still out there with Louis, then I have to save her."

Azari stroked his chin and nodded, "Louis El Bridget is the current heir to the El Bridget estate and business."

"Didn't even know Satellizer had any siblings." Virgil groaned and asked, "Did you guys find Satellizer's older sister, Violet?"

"We did." Elizabeth said grimly, which Virgil immediately noticed. Before Virgil could ask anything further, Azari stepped in.

"The point is, Louis is protected by a wave of politics, wealth, and power." Azari nodded, "There is no way we are going to be able to get to him in a head on fight."

"No need." Virgil growled to Azari, and shrugged Diggle off. "I'm going after him myself."

"WHAT?!" Kaho yelled in fear, and everyone looked at Virgil in equal confusion.

Kaho reached out to Virgil and quickly said, "Virgil. Before three days ago, I didn't even know you were Static. And now, after being nearly killed, you want to go after the guy responsible for that…alone?"

Virgil walked towards the door, "Louis blew me up, twice apparently. He hurt Satellizer, threatened you guys, and disrespected me." Virgil looked back at everyone and nodded, "When I find him, I'm going tear him a new one."

"I cannot let you do that." Azari said to Virgil, who rolled his eyes as the King continued, "You are a Titan. If you go and attack the El Bridgets, you are dragging us all into war."

"He kidnapped Satellizer!" Virgil growled and poked Azari on the chest. "If Peter were here-"

"Spiderman is not here, Virgil." Azari said. "And if he were, I would still stop you from going after Louis. We need a different approach. Going in head first-"

"Screw that, Azari." Virgil growled, "I'm going and saving Satellizer. Period. You get on or get the hell out of my way." Virgil then glared at everyone else in the room, "That goes for anyone else who wants to voice their opinion right now."

Roy narrowed his eyes at Virgil, and then shook his head, "You're really going to get yourself killed?"

Xenovia looked at Azari and nodded, "Azari. Virgil does have a point. If she is a member of this group, we can not just sit by and leave her behind."

Azari then looked at Xenovia and responded, "That is not the point, Xenovia. I am in charge of keeping this team from becoming wanted criminals because of Virgil's actions." Azari then turned back to Virgil, "You are not thinking straight. So, you are not leaving, my friend."

Virgil then sighed and lowered his head.

Elizabeth looked at Virgil then Azari, and asked, "So…Azari, please tell me you have an actual plan."

Azari then nodded and said, "Yes, I do. We will first wait for the search for Virgil to cooldown-" In the middle of Azari's sentence, Virgil kicked Azari in the chest and used lightning to push the King of Wakanda into Diggle and Roy!

Virgil turned and ran out of the door, as Azari groaned in pain. Xenovia moved to help Azari, while Roy and Elizabeth started out the door after Virgil.

Azari waved Xenovia off, groaning, "Not me! Go after Virgil!" Azari then hit his comm and yelled, "DO NOT LET HIM GO!"

As Virgil ran down the crowded hospital hallway, he slowly began to process that he was actually in West Genetics' infirmary. There were several injured Pandora and Limiters around him, and he had to angle his way around them.

While making a sharp left, Virgil saw both Elizabeth and Roy running after him. Virgil growled as he ran toward a window at the end of the hallway, hopping over a Pandora on a stretch. Roy and Elizabeth turned around the corner in pursuit. Elizabeth leapt over the stretcher, while Roy slid under it. Both heroes got to their feet, when Virgil built electricity in his fist and he punched forward at the window! The entire wall exploded on contact, leaving a man-sized hole for Virgil's escape.

Roy stopped running and said, "Wooah! Stop!"

Elizabeth, however, did not stop and she leapt at Virgil, fist first. "I don't want to hurt you, Virgil! But you need to stand down!"

Virgil leapt out of the hole, with his hand aimed at Elizabeth creating a shield of electricity behind him. Elizabeth, however, summoned her two Volt Weapon crystal satellites. The two hovering satellites made contact with Virgil's shield and began to completely absorb the lightning Virgil had created. Virgil blinked in confusion, as Elizabeth flew through the shield with a determined look on her face. The Pandora tackled Virgil, and the two tumbled down two stories and hit the ground rolling.

Virgil kicked Elizabeth off of him and hopped to his feet. Virgil jetted himself upward, in an attempt to escape, when Xenovia soared down at him from above. Xenovia kicked Virgil in the face, and he tumbled down back on the ground.

Virgil stood and engulfed both his fists in lightning, as Xenovia hopped to her feet and pulled out a hilt of a sword. A blade made completely of holy energy stretched out of the hilt. Elizabeth hopped to her feet and moved behind Virgil. Both females began moving around Virgil, who glared at both of them.

Many students had stopped their daily routines and began gathering around the fight. One of them cried out, "Hey isn't that Elizabeth? What's she doing without her Limiter?"

"What's she doing fighting that guy?" Another student yelled.

One last student, who appeared to be very excited, drooled, "Who's the chick with blue hair?! Is she single?!"

Roy looked down at the fight from the hospital, as Azari ran next to him, now with his Vibranium suit on. "Why have you not gone down there and gotten involved?"

"Last time I check," Roy looked at Azari, "I don't have my suit on me, and I have a secret identity I need to keep."

Roy then looked down at Xenovia and Elizabeth, as they circled Virgil, who appeared to be aware of the trouble he was in. "Anyways. Elizabeth and Xenovia are no pushovers."

"Stand down." Elizabeth called out to Virgil. "Final warning."

Virgil glanced at Elizabeth and began to say something, when Xenovia leapt forward at him with her sword ready. Virgil yelped in surprise, lifting his hands and causing a lightning shield to block off the blade. Xenovia saw this opening and delivered a right hook to Virgil's face. Virgil back away in pain, and it was clear that he was still injured from the explosions.

Elizabeth grabbed Virgil from behind, and Xenovia moved in on the two. Virgil lifted one of his feet forward and caused a bolt of lightning to fire out of it, pushing both Elizabeth and him backwards. Xenovia gracefully twisted pass the bolt and continued at the Virgil.

Virgil and Elizabeth hit the ground, and he felt her grip on him slip up. Virgil grabbed Elizabeth's thigh and let a small jolt of electricity flow in her, and Elizabeth tensed up. Virgil flipped off of Elizabeth, only to be stabbed in the chest by Xenovia's holy energy blade.

Virgil roared in pain, as Xenovia drove the hilt into him.

Xenovia growled, as she held on, "This sword does no physical damage to human beings. However, the pain you experience is enough to immobilize you long enough to-" Virgil opened his mouth and fired a bolt of lightning that formed a fist and punched Xenovia in the face.

Xenovia backward in annoyance, as Virgil struggled to yank the blade out of his chest.

Xenovia grumbled at this sight and nodded, "That's usually my one hit move."

Elizabeth ran passed Xenovia and growled, "No more energy attacks. Keep it physical. We have to take him down." Elizabeth leapt forward at Virgil, who lifted his hands up to block Elizabeth's knee. A loud blast of feedback caused everyone to grab their ears in pain.

Xenovia slid under Elizabeth, who was pushed backward. Xenovia recovered and delivered a heavy hit to Virgil's bandaged wound, and he coughed out blood over her head. Xenovia punched Virgil in the face, and he countered with a punch of his own, which Xenovia easily dodged.

Xenovia then swept at Virgil's legs, but he simply responded by lifting off the ground and carrying an electric force field around Xenovia. Xenovia got on a knee, as Virgil hovered over her.

Virgil smirked at her, "Let's see if you can get out of this one."

Elizabeth tackled Virgil from behind, and he hit his head on the grassy grounds. The students began cheering for Elizabeth, as the lightning shield dropped from around Xenovia.

Xenovia moved over to Elizabeth, as Elizabeth held down Virgil. "Stand down! I don't want to hurt you!"

"FINE!" Virgil growled and let a jolt of lightning hit both Elizabeth and Xenovia. The two female fatales jerk away, and the students began booing Virgil. Virgil then put his hands together and summoned a large ball of lightning.

"Jesus!" Elizabeth called out, "Virgil! Don't!"

Xenovia glared at Elizabeth and growled, "Don't use his name in-"

Virgil clapped his hands together, causing the ball of lightning to explode in a flash of light. Both Xenovia and Elizabeth covered their eyes, and all the students ducked in fear. After a few more seconds, Xenovia and Elizabeth looked for Virgil, realizing that he escaped during the flashbang.

The two females looked up at Roy and Azari, who were still rubbing their eyes from the flash.

"Those two." Xenovia growled, "Just standing up there watching."

Elizabeth growled back to Xenovia, "They keep us out of the loop, but are comfortable letting us deal with their problems."

Xenovia was about to respond, when Elizabeth rested her hand where Virgil was a few seconds ago. She glanced at Xenovia, who asked her, "How do we find Virgil?"

"We don't find Virgil." Elizabeth said, running her fingers through her hair. "We need to find Satellizer."

"Azari isn't going to like that idea." Xenovia pointed out.

Elizabeth simply grumbled, "It doesn't matter now. If we find Satellizer, we stop Virgil from doing anything else crazy."

"Crazy, like attacking the people who are trying to help him?" Xenovia retorted.

Elizabeth then sighed and nodded, "Yep."


England

Satellizer sat on the balcony of the fifth floor of a large mansion. The mansion was massive and had a crest of its front side that read, 'El Bridget'. Surrounding the mansion were several large gardens filled with beautiful roses and other exotic flowers. As the sun began to set on the horizon, tears began to fill Satellizer's eyes.

"Virgil." Satellizer whispered under her breath.

Holly walked behind Satellizer, who continued to softly sob. Holly looked down at Satellizer and grumbled, "Why are you crying for him again? All you do is cry."

Satellizer glared at Holly, who continued to taunt her, "You act as if he made you whole? No one can make you whole. You are broken, and no one will change that. You belong to Louis. We all belong to Louis."

"You're crazy if you think that." Satellizer growled to Holly.

Holly smacked Satellizer in the face with lightning quick speed. Satellizer stood shocked for a moment, as Holly gave her a death stare.

"We belong to Louis. That is how it works now. I am his. And so are you." Holly simply said, as she turned from Satellizer and began walking off the balcony.

Satellizer stood and began after Holly. But as she exited off the balcony and into her room, Louis sat on her bed waiting for her, with Holly at his side.

"Sister." Louis purred to Satellizer, which caused her to stop in her tracks.

Satellizer began to tremble, as Louis stood and began walking towards her. "What's wrong, sister? Aren't you happy to be back in your old room? Aren't you happy to be here, with me?"

Satellizer tried to move, but for some reason, she felt locked in place. Tears began streaming down her face, as Louis pulled her into his arms. As he began to squeeze and feel her, Satellizer began sobbing again.

"Why…why can't I move?" Satellizer asked.

Louis licked his lips and smirked, "I'm glad you noticed. It's a little something I had a friend cook up for me." Satellizer's eyes widened, as Louis asked her, "Have you heard of the Church of Natural Divine Light?"

"What?!" Satellizer glanced at Louis, who was shocked by Satellizer's quick response to that. Satellizer growled to Louis, "When did…how…why are you connected to the Church of Divine Light?"

Louis rubbed Satellizer's back, which caused her to moan in discomfort, "That's none of your concern, my dear. All you need to worry about is this." Louis lifted up a silver glowing high-tech bracelet. "This is a-"

"Noah 3 bracelet." Satellizer growled to Louis, who was taken aback, once again. Satellizer growled to Louis, "Don't look so surprised, Louis. I've dealt with the Divine Light before…with Virgil and the Titans."

Louis' eyes bucked, and he slapped Satellizer in the face. Satellizer backed away and hit the bed. Louis glared at Satellizer and snarled, "Don't you dare mention that monkey's name in my house!"

Satellizer' stigmata began to glow, and Nova Blood began to materialize in her hand. Holly began to summon her volt weapon, but Louis simply lifted his wrist and the Noah 3 bracelet released a wave of white energy. Both Holly and Satellizer's stigmata died down, and both their Volt Weapons disappeared.

Satellizer looked at her hand in shock. She gasped, as Louis smacked her in the face again. Louis laughed out, "This is just a taste of what is to come, Satella! I can neutralize your powers! You're just as powerless as you were when we were kids!"

Louis pulled his belt off and glared at Holly, "Leave. Now."

Holly nodded, and turned from Satellizer, who began to sob in terror. Holly froze for a single second. Her eyes widened realizing what was happening, but as she turned back to Louis, she saw the look of rage and lust in his eyes. She shook her head and then left the room, into the dark and empty hallways of the El Bridget manor.


Dakota City

Virgil moved down a back alleyway, near several house projects, trying to remain unseen. Virgil looked out on the streets of Dakota, and saw a couple of kids playing basketball, enjoying themselves.

Virgil moved over to a newly built house, that seemed a bit better off than the other houses on the street. Virgil grabbed a rock and tossed it at one of the windows on the house. The rock hit the window and made a crack on the glass.

Virgil winched in shock for a second, and then gulped, "Oh, damn!"

The window was suddenly flung open, and a teenage white male, with blonde hair, and glasses, poked his head out of the window. The guy was wearing a black undershirt, and he was clearly pissed at what just happened to his window.

"What the hell?!" The guy growled looking at the crack in his window. He glanced down at Virgil, and his eyes widened. "Virgil? Is that you?"

"Yeah, it's me Richie! Can I come up?" Virgil said, trying to not attract attention.

Richie's mom then yelled to him, "Richie! Is everything alright, sweetie?"

"Yeah, everything's fine mom!" Richie yelled to her. Richie then looked at Virgil, seeing his ripped up and torn clothes. Richie then raised an eyebrow to his friend, "Is everything fine with you, Virgil?"

"Look dude, I need to come up and talk to you. It's an emergency." Virgil nodded to Richie.

Richie shook his head, "I'm gonna grab some clothes and come down there to you, buddy. I don't think I should let you in right now."

"Why?" Virgil asked, then he shook his head, "Is your dad home?"

"No, he isn't." Richie said quickly in his defense. Then he nodded, "Dude. I hate to tell you this, but you're a wanted criminal right now." Virgil's eyes widened after hearing this.


Virgil and Richie sat on a park bench, under shade, while children played on the playground. Virgil was watching the news on Richie's phone, while Richie was examining Virgil and Satellizer's Titan Communicator.

Virgil had changed from his damaged hospital clothing to a black and red hoodie, that Richie had for him. Virgil wore black sweatpants over his hospital bottoms, and he had Richie go into his house to get a pair of shoes he could wear.

The news broadcaster said, as Virgil continued to watch the footage of him fighting off the guards in the airport, "While authorities have not been able to identify the teenage metahuman that attacked the airport, both SHIELD and ARGUS have made it clear that he is wanted for questions."

"The news is saying I attacked the airport!" Virgil groaned in confusion. Richie shrugged, as he broke open Virgil's communicator.

"Fake news. What's new about that?" Richie mumbled.

Virgil continued watching, as the anchor finished his piece, "It should also be noted, that King Azari, a known member of the Teen Titans was with this metahuman and allowed him to escape! And while the UN has tried to contact Spiderman, the leader of this team, they have received no answers."

"Oh my god." Virgil put his face in his hands. "I'm wanted by SHIELD and ARGUS."

"Lucky, they don't know who you are." Richie smirked.

"No, believe me." Virgil gulped at Richie, "If you could figure out it was me from this footage, SHIELD and ARGUS will be on me soon too."

Richie glanced at Virgil and then said in a salty tone, "Why not just call your new super friends, the Titans? They should be able to help you."

Virgil looked at Richie and nodded, "I…had to fight them in order to escape here." Richie stopped working on the Titan Communicator, and he glanced at Virgil. Virgil then sighed, "Anyways. Apparently, Spiderman, Saeko, Ben, and Mirajane are in the vast reaches of space, so they can't help me."

"They're in space?" Richie said in awe.

"Apparently." Virgil rubbed his chin, "Superboy has vanished without a trace. I mean so has Takumi, but that's expected of Takumi. Moka gone back to hell, or wherever she's from."

Richie lifted the Teen Titan's motherboard and then laughed, "Your new friends are weird, bro."

"Stop calling them that, Richie." Virgil nodded, then glanced at the Titan Communicator. "What are you doing with that thing?"

Richie nodded, "Well, Mr. Electro Physicist. I ran a scan on both of these communicators, and I've caught a high pitch signal that is coming from these things."

"What?" Virgil crossed his arms in confusion.

Richie then nodded, "There are trackers in these things."

"Makes sense." Virgil nodded, "In case we lost one of our own, Peter would be able to track us back down."

Richie pulled out a small tracer, the size of a dime. Richie blinked at the tracer, as Virgil shrugged, "I appreciate you taking that out. Now I don't have to worry about Azari trying to track me down for now."

Richie looked at the tracer and then Virgil, "Dude. What is the Natural Divine Light?"

Virgil glanced at Richie in confusion. "What? What are you talking about?" Richie flipped the tracer, and in small text, it read, "Natural Divine Light".

Virgil blinked in shock, and he then looked at Richie, "Why the hell is that in my communicator?"

"Why are you asking me?" Richie shrugged.

Virgil stood to his feet and nodded, "How come Superboy never caught a hint of a tracer in my communicator? How could I have missed it? I can scan electronics." Virgil looked at the communicator. "I mean, I've scanned this thing before! This is insane."

"Are the Natural Divine Light guys the ones who set you up, Virg?" Richie asked, as he poured water on both communicators.

Virgil stood to his feet and saw a payphone across the street. Virgil shook his head, "No. The Church of Divine Light are a cult group that are enemies of Takumi Nishijou. We fought them a week or two ago. The one who set me up was Louis El Bridget."

"Louis El Bridget? You mean the son of Howard El Bridget? Are you serious?" Richie said, running his fingers through his hair, "That's hard-core man. That guy has so many connections, it's not even funny." Richie looked over to see Virgil working his magic on the payphone. Richie then sighed and got off the bench.

Virgil put the payphone to his ear and waited for a couple of seconds, then he hears Roy's voice come from the phone.

"Hello? Who is this?" Roy said.

"Roy! It's me, Virgil!" Virgil said into the phone.

After a couple seconds of silence, Roy then grumbled, "Where are you, Virgil?"

"That's not important right now, Roy! Are you with Azari?" Virgil asked, "I need to talk to him right now!"

"Okay, okay. Calm down, man." Roy said, trying to assure Virgil.

Azari's voice then came from the phone, "Virgil. Where are you, my friend?"

"Listen to me, Azari. You need to disassemble your Titan Communicator!" Virgil quickly said. Azari began to respond, but Virgil continued, "Listen, my friend, Richie- "

"Dude!" Richie said, spreading his arms out.

Virgil rolled his eyes at Richie and continued, "He found a tracer in both Satellizer and mine own Titan Communicator."

Azari groaned on the phone, and Virgil heard this and growled back, "Why are you groaning?"

Azari then growled to Virgil, "Virgil, if you are speaking of the tracer placed in our communicators by Parker, then I am well aware of its location and purpose. I want to know where you are, right now."

Virgil then said back to Azari, "These tracers were planted by the Church of Natural Divine Light."

"WHAT?!" Azari shouted into the phone. After several moments of silence, Azari nodded, "I need to check my communicator, Virgil. But I need you to tell me where you are, right now. SHIELD and ARGUS have both contacted the Titans and have made it very clear that they know you are the one caught in the airport footage."

"Dammit." Virgil grumbled.

"If you come back, we can protect you, Virgil." Azari nodded, "But I can do nothing while you are not with us."

"I need to find Satellizer, Azari." Virgil nodded, "So you focus on figuring out why and how the Church of Divine Light got into our communicators, and I'll find Satellizer."

"No, Virgil!" Azari growled, but Virgil hung up the phone on the Panther.

Virgil glanced at Richie who frowned at him. Richie then grumbled, "You totally sold me out to the Titans!"

Virgil nodded, "Just think about it like this, man. The Teen Titans now owe you for finding out we had enemy tracers in our own communicators."

Richie thought about it for a second, then he began stroking his ego. "Well, I guess that is true. Only a genius like myself could isolate the frequency of the tracer, and then locate it within your communicator." Richie then smirked at Virgil, "Looks like you guys do owe me one."

Virgil thought about what Richie said for a second, then his eyes widened in shock. Virgil looked at Richie and then he smiled in awe, "Frequencies! Frequencies! That's it!"

"What's it?" Richie said, as Virgil turned from his friend and began charging up his powers. Richie saw this, and he nodded, "Does this mean I need to get my suit?"

"Nope! This is personal Richie! But thanks for the help! I owe you one!" Virgil laughed, as he rocketed off into the sky, headed for his old base in the heart of Dakota City.

Richie rubbed the back of his head and grumbled, "Jeez…I need a girlfriend."

Richie hopped from the bench and then started after his old friend, who grew a determined look on his face.

'I'm coming for you Satellizer.' Virgil thought to himself.


Satellizer sat by the sliding door that led to her room's balcony, as heavy raindrops hit the window of her room. Satellizer had her head lowered in defeat. Louis' words were her reality now. She was truly nothing.

A blast of ominous thunder cut across the blackened stormy skies, and Satellizer clenched her blouse.

"I…I…" Satellizer said in horror. She felt frozen again, as if the world was holding her in place no matter how hard she tried to move. But she soon realized this was not Louis' doing. This feeling that cut through her confidence and selfworth, it was fear.

Satellizer heard a knock on the door, and she quickly rose in defense of herself. However, a small note was pushed under the door. Satellizer saw this, and she cautiously moved towards the note. She lifted the note and she softly read it aloud.

I'm waiting on the cliff outside the Eastern back gates. Come on, before I'm spotted.

Virgil

Satellizer felt a warmest in her chest, and tears began flowing down her face. She clenched the note close to herself and then sobbed, "Virgil…I'm coming for you." Satellizer then pulled herself together and grabbed a yellow raincoat. She pulled it on and opened the doors to the balcony.

Satellizer glanced down at the drop and nodded, "I've jumped from higher distances…" Satellizer shook her head and gulped, "Holy crap…" She felt the raindrops falling from heaven, and she ran up to the edge and leapt off, as another flash of lightning stretched across the night sky.


Satellizer made it to the cliff and looked out at the raging sea. The strong winds whipped her hair and raincoat wildly, and she struggled to keep everything in place. 'This storm is really bad! I can barely see what's in front of me with this rain.'

Satellizer looked around the empty grassy area, and then called out, "Virgil?! Where are you?!" Satellizer scanned the area for her friend. Her eyes slowly began to have the hope drain from them, when she suddenly heard Louis' voice behind her.

"Where is he?" Louis called out from behind Satellizer, and the Pandora whipped around to see both Louis and Holly standing several yards from her. "Oh, poor Satellizer. You just don't know where that filthy ape is, do you?"

Satellizer clenched her fists and growled, "You…you set me up?"

"Of course, I did, my dear sister." Louis laughed, as the rain hit his head. "I called you down here to remind you, there is no escape from me! This is my home! My land! And you, belong to me!"

Louis began laughing in a crazed manner, and Satellizer lowered her head. Holly glanced over at Louis, then Satellizer. Louis then chuckled, "Holly…answer me. Who am I?"

Holly looked at Louis, then she blinked in confusion, "Louis…"

Louis' eyes went dead for a single second, and his Noah 3 bracelet began to glow. Louis then drove his fist into Holly's face. Holly fell limp to the ground and grabbed her bleeding nose. Satellizer's eyes widened in shock, as Louis kicked her in the chest.

"I'll ask you one more time…" Louis grabbed Holly and yanked her to his face, "WHO AM I?!"

Holly began tearing up, and she nodded, "M…my master…"

Satellizer clenched her fists and shook her head, "What the hell is this!? Why are you doing this?!"

Holly stood to her feet behind Louis, as he turned to Satellizer. Louis licked his lips at his sister and nodded to her. Satellizer blinked in shock, as Louis then said, "Satella. You're next, my darling." Satellizer's eyes widened, as Louis smirked, "Who am I?"

Satellizer began to shake furiously. The fear began filling her up again, and her vision began getting hazy and dark. Satellizer closed her eyes and allowed words to flow from within her.

"You…you are…" Satellizer then opened her eyes and glared at Louis, "I…don't know who you are." Satellizer then summoned her Nova Blood and glared at Louis, "But I know who I am! I am Satellizer El Bridget! I am a Pandora, who holds 6 of the Heroic Stigmata! And I am a Titan! I will never back down."

Both Holly and Louis were taken aback by Satellizer's sudden surge of confidence. Louis smirked, "Oh, is that so? You're a Titan?" Louis' Noah 3 bracelet began to glow, and Satellizer's stigmata shut off, and her Nova Blood shattered to pieces.

Louis then smirked, "I am your master now, Satellizer! Where is your Virgil to protect you?"

Louis took a step towards Satellizer, when a long arc of lightning cut through the sky. This arc of white lightning flung downwards and struck the ground between Louis and Satellizer. Louis backed away in fear, while Satellizer smiled and took a step forward. Static emerged from the bolt of lightning wearing a white t-shirt with a black lightning bolt on the chest, and a blue long coat over it. Static stood between both Satellizer and Louis, and he directed his attention towards Louis and Holly.

"I'm right here!" Static growled to Louis and Holly. Static then narrowed his eyes at Louis, "You have pissed me off for the last time, you son of a bitch."

Static blinked for a second, then he glanced at Satellizer. "Oh, sorry."

Louis growled, "You dog! How did you find-"

"I tried to trace the frequency of Satellizer's Heroic stigmata. That frequency, of course is restricted from public knowledge. But lucky for me, I met Gengo Aoi's grandson. So, I got in good with the old man." Static smirked as he backed towards Satellizer.

Static looked at her and nodded, "You okay, Satella?"

Satellizer wrapped her arms around him and nodded, "Virgil…I…I'm good." Satellizer wiped the rain off her face then put on a small smile, "I'm just glad you finally made it."

Static and Satellizer rested each other's heads together, and Static whispered, "I love you. And I'm never letting you go again." Static then kissed Satellizer's head and nodded, "When this is over, we're leaving."

Satellizer blinked in confusion at Virgil.

"Leaving?" Holly started, then Louis slapped her across the face. Virgil and Satellizer winched in shock. Louis turned to the duo with his eyes glowing in anger.

"SHUT THE HELL UP! ALL OF YOU!" Louis roared. Louis pointed at Virgil, "You think you can have her, monkey? She's mine! She belongs to me! I've taken her innocence. I've taken her womanhood."

Static's eyes widened, as Satellizer lowered her head. Louis continued as he began rubbing himself, "I can tell you exactly how good her insides felt, Hawkins! I bet you can't even imagine how the womb of a Pandora is. So soft. So sweet. So-"

"Enough." Static quietly growled.

Louis began to chuckle at both Static and Satellizer, as Holly moved to his side. "Do you understand now, dog? Have you finally gotten it through your thick monkey skull?"

Static remained silent, as Louis raised his head to him and began to chuckle. Satellizer tugged on Static's jacket and whispered, "Let's…let's go, while we still have the chance."

Static stood in silence for a few seconds then he frowned at Satellizer. "Sorry babe." He then directed his attention towards Louis, "But I came to see him bleed."

Static began to charge up his power, when Louis noticed and called out, "Wow! Where do you think you're going? Do you really think you can go anywhere that I can't find you? Do you know who I am?"

"You're a bigot racist." Static nodded, "Yeah I know. Now, you're going to stay away from me and my people. Or I'm going to kill you."

Louis balled his fist and his Noah 3 bracelet began to glow. His fist became engulfed in a white energy. "You're really going to threaten, boy? Do you realize the power I wield?"

Static let go of Satellizer and nodded to Louis, "It wasn't a threat." Static lifted his fist and fired a bolt of lightning that arced forward at Louis. Louis lifted his hand to the arc, and a white energy shield appeared in front of him, blocking the blast.

Louis growled, "You f**king nigg-" Static leapt forward and drove his fist into the side of Louis' face. Holly summoned her sword of crystals, and zoomed at Static, but Satellizer summoned her Nova Blood and blocked Holly's jab at Static.

Both Louis and Static rolled on the ground, as Holly and Satellizer began clashing blades with one another.

Louis stood and fired a white laser at Static, who launched into the sky, barely avoiding the beam. Louis saw this, so he clapped his hands together, releasing a massive wave of concussive energy at Static, who was too slow to avoid it. Static was sent tumbling towards the ground.

Satellizer saw this, so she kicked Holly in the chest, which caused the powerful Pandora to back away. Satellizer then leapt forward to catch Static.

Louis saw this and he growled, "Stay out of this!" Louis punched his fist forward, and several streams of energy fired from his wrist and stabbed into Satellizer's back. Satellizer's back exploded with blood, as Static hit the ground and his mask rolled off.

Louis growled, "What the hell did you think was going to happen here, Virgil?!" Louis began moving towards Virgil, who got on a knee and saw Satellizer fall to the ground, bloody and bruised. Louis continued, "Did you think you, a filthy dog, could just come in here and beat me? I'm a god! I'm untouchable!"

Virgil glared at Louis and then nodded, "Why would a god blow up his own resort? Blow up his own plane? And then set me up, in the process?"

"Why?" Louis laughed, as he punched down at Virgil's head. Virgil caught his fist and then punched him in the chest. Louis backed away in pain, and Holly moved in him. Virgil slung a lightning bolt at Holly, who raised her sword in defense. The sword absorbed most of the energy, and Holly slashed down on Virgil.

Virgil barely sidestepped out of the way, but as the sword made contact with the ground, it released a wave of energy, that sent Virgil flying into the air. He suddenly hit the ground, near the edge of the cliff. Virgil looked down at his shirt, and he could see blood flowing out of the wound he had received early.

Satellizer tried to stand, as she noticed the blood, "Virgil…"

Holly moved over and kicked Satellizer in the back, and Satellizer screamed out in pain. Louis glared at Holly, but this time, he did not come to Satellizer's defense.

Louis directed his attention towards Virgil, as he walked towards the Bang Baby on the edge of the cliff. "You asked me why I did all those things, you filthy nig? It's because I can! I can do whatever I want to do! I'm unstoppable!"

Virgil smirked at Louis, as Louis continued, "I'm stronger than you! I'm stronger than the Teen Titans! I'm stronger than any government or foreign power! I can do anything, and no one will be able to stop me! This world belongs to me!"

Virgil spit blood on the ground, as he stood on his two feet. Virgil aimed his fist at his fallen mask, and the seemingly cloth mask actually became magnetized and floated over to him. Virgil pulled his mask over his face and once again became Static.

Static smirked at Louis, who smiled, "Why are you still smirking, monkey?"

Static just nodded, "Hey, Gear? Did you get all of that?"

Richie's voice then came over the speaker in Virgil's mask, "Oh yeah, Static. I got all of it, on a live recording too."

Louis blinked in shock, "What? What did you-"

"I set up a little live stream on social media." Static said, "Called it, 'Static's Unmasking'. I knew SHIELD, ARGUS, the Titans, etc. would be on to listen to what I had to say. And guess what, they've heard just about everything you've had to say too."

Louis blinked in shock at Static, who tapped the small almost unnoticeable camera on his mask. "Say hello to the world that supposedly belongs to you, Louis El Bridget."

"You f**king animal!" Louis growled to Static, who smiled at him.

"Wow, careful. You wouldn't want the people to see that nasty side of you!" Static laughed, as Louis charged at him enraged.

Virgil readied himself and let out a final remark, "All the villains get cranky when I catch them monologuing."

Virgil lifted his fist and fired an arc of lightning at Louis, who used his Noah 3 bracelet to counter that lightning with an energy blast of his own. The blast cut through the lightning and hit Static in the face, frying half of his mask, and dropping the Bang Baby to the ground.

Virgil ripped the burning mask off his face, when Louis suddenly kicked Virgil in the head. Virgil rolled on the ground, but this caused Louis to stomp down on Virgil's face. Virgil's eye began to swell up, when Louis stomped down on Virgil's face again.

"NO!" Satellizer yelled, as she kicked Holly in the face, and summoned Nova Blood to her hand. Satellizer launched herself at Louis, as Holly growled and followed behind her.

Satellizer saw Holly's advance, so she whipped around and slashed forward at the Holly. Holly raised her swords in defense, but Nova Blood managed to slash her across her right eye.

Holly winched in pain, and in this split second, Satellizer hopped forward and kicked both swords from Holly's grip. Holly lifted her hands in defense, but Satellizer drove her combat boot down on the Pandora's head. Holly stumbled backwards, and Satellizer snarled and leapt forward at her.

Virgil blocked a punch Louis threw at him, then pushed his fist forward, sending a massive bolt of lightning into Louis' chest. Louis went sailing backwards and onto the ground. Virgil charged forward at the El Bridget, as he tried to recover. As Virgil punched at Louis again, Louis ducked under the punch and delivered to jabs into Virgil's rips.

Virgil coughed in pain, as Louis delivered another nasty body blow, pushing Virgil back. Virgil growled as Louis moved in, smirking at him as if he had just won.

"This is over, Virgil!" Louis barked, as Virgil grabbed Louis' collar and kneed him in the chest. Virgil then elbowed Louis in the head, making the young man drop to the ground. Virgil then delivered a kicked, charged with electricity, that sent Louis flying several feet back.

Virgil slowly began walking towards Louis, who's Noah 3 bracelet began to glow. Louis stood up, seemingly more energized. Louis then charged at Virgil again, this time with more energy and fury. Virgil noticed this, so he moved in hoping Louis' form would get sloppy.

Virgil crossed a jab at Louis' face, who leaned out of the way of the jab. Virgil saw this lean, so he used his free arm to send a second jab at Louis. Louis ducked under the jab and threw a heavy punch into Virgil's face. A massive gash was sent across Virgil's damaged eye, and the bang baby could feel the blood flowing from it.

Virgil backed away from Louis, who smirked at him and continued moving forward.

While Virgil and Louis continued to square off, Holly began to use martial arts to combat against Satellizer's swordplay, and this new method of fighting seemed to be efficient. Satellizer slashed Nova Blood at Holly, who ducked under the blade and jabbed Satellizer in the stomach.

Satellizer backed away in pain, as Holly's fists and feet began to be engulfed in blue Pandora energy. Suddenly Volt Weapon Knuckles and Combat Boots formed over Holly, and she moved in on Satellizer. Satellizer stabbed at Holly, who leaned inward, dodging the blade and slamming her shoulder in Satellizer's chest. Satellizer rolled backwards, as Holly then kicked her in the chest. Holly kicked at Satellizer again, who raised her Nova Blood in defense, but Holly's new Volt Weapon enhancers shattered Nova Blood and pushed Satellizer on her back. Holly leapt up and punched down at Satellizer, who rolled under Holly and stood up to get some distance between the two.

Louis grabbed Virgil's neck, and tried to pull him in reach, so Virgil released a pulse of energy, frying Louis' hand. Louis pulled his hand back, but Virgil moved forward charging energy in his fist and jabbing Louis in the chest.

Louis grabbed his chest, and Virgil took his chance to summon a piece of Satellizer's broken Nova Blood. Virgil slashed Nova Blood at Louis' chest, who grabbed the blade and cut his hands. Louis growled in pain and kicked at Virgil. Virgil then growled and kicked Louis in the shin.

Louis yelled in pain, and Virgil jabbed the young man in the chin. Louis used Noah 3 to charge up energy, but as he fired it forward, Virgil stuck his hand out and smirked.

"Don't mind if I do!" Virgil smirked and the energy summoned by Louis was siphoned into Virgil. Virgil felt the power surging through him, and Louis shook his head in shock.

"But-" Louis started when Virgil sent a blast of lightning that jolted through Louis' chest and dropped the young man on his back.

Virgil smirked at Louis, who coughed in pain. "What's my name, bitch?"

Satellizer summoned Nova Blood in her hand again, while Holly continued to advance on her. Holly leapt up and punched at Satellizer again, but Satellizer pushed Nova Blood forward in defense, blocking Holly's punch. Holly then jabbed at Satellizer's face, which caused Satellizer to use her free arm and block the oncoming punch. Holly then tried to deliver a roundhouse kick to Satellizer, but the Pandora ducked under the kick and punched Holly in the stomach, sending the Pandora flying backwards.

Holly rolled on her back in pain, as Satellizer directed her attention towards Virgil.

Virgil stood over Louis, which his hand at Louis' throat. Satellizer called out to Virgil, who smirked at Louis' defeat. "Virgil, come on."

"Wait a minute." Virgil demanded as he began to squeeze against Louis' throat.

"I'm done waiting." Satellizer called out to Virgil. "This is over! We've beaten them!"

Virgil let go of Louis and glanced at Satellizer. His look was determined and set, "We've won today, but what about tomorrow? What about when they come after you and me again? They won't stop. They will never stop."

"That's more than enough reason to leave now." Satellizer whispered to Virgil. She then pointed at his chest and nodded, "We need to leave, Virgil. Please."

Virgil stared at Satellizer for a second, then he grumbled. He turned to Louis and growled, "Come anywhere near us again, and I'll kill you. I promise you that."

Virgil then charged his fist with power and punched the ground next to Louis' head. Virgil then lifted his fist to punch down again, "IF YOU COME NEAR US AGAIN, I WILL KILL YOU! Your name, your status, your money won't protect you!"

Virgil pushed Louis' head in the mud, and then walked over to Satellizer, and the two embraced.

Holly pushed herself off the ground, as Louis nodded to her. Louis then directed his anger at Virgil and yelled, "Wait right there!"

Louis continued, "I said wait right there! Listen to me! STUPID MONKEY!"

Virgil released Satellizer, and Satellizer narrowed her eyes at him. Virgil gritted his teeth, and Satellizer shook her head, "Don't."

Virgil then nodded and turned to Louis. Louis stood, bruised and bleeding, as Virgil began marching towards him. Virgil then pulled off his jacket and grimly said, "For someone claiming to be a man, you've still got some learning to do."

Louis' Noah 3 bracelet began to glow, when Virgil drove his fist in Louis' nose. Louis fell to the ground, as Virgil kicked the young man in the jaw.

Satellizer covered her mouth in shock, as Louis grabbed Virgil's legs. Virgil was pulled to the ground, as Louis climbed on top of him. Louis punched Virgil once, and Virgil tossed the Limiter off of him. Virgil climbed off the ground, and as Louis began to get up Virgil kicked him in the face. Virgil then picked Louis up and punched him in the face, causing the boy to yelp in pain. Virgil punched him again, and he fell on his back.

The Bang Baby stood over the broken Limiter, who was barely conscious at this point. Virgil nodded then spit down on the boy.

"Class dismissed, f***er." Virgil growled. A soft breezy came from the raging ocean, as Virgil stood over Louis. Satellizer looked at her bloodied brother, and then up at Virgil, who was breathing very hard.

Virgil placed a hand on his wound, and noticed it had reopened, again. Virgil growled in pain, but then turned back to Satellizer.

A sharp shard of Holly's Volt Weapon suddenly flew into Virgil's chest, and he blinked in shock for a second. Virgil glanced down at the shard of Volt Tech stabbing into his torso. Virgil spit up a stream of hot blood, as he fell on his back.

Satellizer spun towards Holly, when Holly slashed her crystal blade upward, through Satellizer's back. Satellizer's eyes widened for a quick second, as a new sense of pain filled her body. But this feeling felt like something she had never felt before. Satellizer could see blood flying from her back, but when a flash of lightning cut through the sky, she saw something glitter within her blood. As Satellizer hit the ground, face first in her own blood, she saw one of her Heroic Stigmata hit the ground next to her. Satellizer blinked in shock for a second, then a second stigmata hit the ground. A third. After the final three stigmata hit the ground Satellizer realized what she was feeling surrounding her. Her stigmata were lost.

Satellizer's eyes widened as she realized she couldn't move. "I…I…"

Both Virgil and Louis watched Satellizer lay face first in her own blood. Holly stood over the Pandora, with her blade draw to kill Satellizer.

Louis blinked in shock, "Holly…wha-" A bolt of lightning stretched from below Louis and flew into his chin, exiting out the top of his head. Louis was sent flying from Virgil, who stood and clapped his hands at Holly, firing a blast of lightning into her chest. Holly was sent flying backward.

Virgil ran over to Satellizer, when Holly tackled him to the ground. "NO! This isn't over!" Virgil elbowed Holly in the face, and Louis' Pandora fell on her back. Virgil hopped on top of her and began punching Holly in the face. Virgil punched Holly once, and Louis then grabbed Virgil from behind. Louis' head was smoking, and there was a new gash that opened under his chin.

Virgil pushed Louis on the ground, and then stomped on the young man's nose. Virgil then climbed on top of him and began punching him in the head. Louis raised his fists up in defense, but Virgil just punched the Noah 3 bracelet, shattering it.

Louis looked at it and yelled, "NOO-"

Virgil punched Louis again, breaking the young man's nose. Virgil began punching him again, until both his eyes were swollen shut. Virgil yelled in anger, as he closed his eyes and continued punching down on Louis.

Satellizer tried to call out, "V…V…"

Louis pushed Virgil off of him and tried to stand up. Virgil charged at Louis, who stumbled forward in rage. Louis swung at Virgil, who leaned out of the punch and jabbed Louis in the stomach. Louis backed away, and Virgil jabbed at Louis' chest. Louis grabbed Virgil's fist, and Virgil sent a massive jolt of electricity through his fist and into Louis' body.

Louis tensed up and fell on his back. Virgil hopped on top of him and drove his fist into Louis' throat. Louis coughed up air, but Virgil then delivered a jab into Louis' jaw. This caused Louis to cough up blood. Virgil jabbed Louis in the face again and again. Virgil then pulled his fist back and drove his entire body downward, breaking Louis' jaw.

Louis lifted his arms again, with tears coming from his eyes, but Virgil grabbed Louis' right arm and snapped it in two places. Louis let out a ghostly moan, which was met with a swift jab to the throat. Virgil was suddenly pulled off of Louis, and he drove his elbow into the face of whoever was pulling him off. Virgil was surprised to see it was Azari, wearing his Panther suit.

"He's down, Virgil!" Panther said. "They're both down!"

Virgil pushed Panther off of him and climbed back on top of Louis, driving his fist down once again, this time with a charge of electricity. Virgil's fist drove into Louis left eye, narrowly tearing it out of his head.

Panther and Xenovia yanked Virgil off of Louis and toss him on the ground. Panther climbed on Virgil and growled, "Do not move, Virgil!" Virgil jerked forward, and Panther socked him in the face. Virgil winched in pain, and Panther growled again, "The next one will break your jaw."

Panther glanced over to Xenovia, who moved over to Louis and checked his vitals. Xenovia frowned as soon as she saw the boy's mangled face. Xenovia checked his neck and grimly glanced at Azari.

Panther stepped off of Virgil, who ran over to Satellizer. Virgil tried to lift up his love, as Elizabeth entered on the scene.

Elizabeth called out to the group, as she came from the mansion. "Guys, I checked the mansion. No one knows where-" Elizabeth stopped in her tracks when she saw the bloody Pandora and Limiters laying on the grass bleeding.

"Oh my god." Elizabeth said, covering her mouth.

Both Panther and Xenovia noticed Holly moving, but Elizabeth slowly moved and checked on her. Elizabeth lifted Holly up and shook her head, "Jesus. Where is her eye?"

Elizabeth looked at Panther, who moved towards Virgil. Holly moaned in agony, as she reached out towards Virgil. Her throat was blackened to a crisp, and it was clear that vocal cords had been burned out.

"Vegesfl." Holly hissed out, as blood began oozing out of her throat. "Veeeergal!" Holly moaned out to Virgil, in hate.

Azari called out to Virgil, "Virgil?"

Virgil hung his head low, as everything went silent. Elizabeth looked over at Virgil, who held Satellizer in his arms. "Virgil?"

Xenovia placed her hand on Louis' chest and glanced over at Virgil and Satellizer, and saw Virgil tearing up. Satellizer head rested on his chest, as she whispered to him, "Virgil…"


West Genetics

Virgil sat in the hallways of West Genetics' infirmary, completely alone. His clothes were still ripped to pieces, and he was still bleeding from his injuries. His face was buried in his hands, as he sobbed quietly alone.

Azari, Roy, Elizabeth, and Xenovia stood inside the hospital room Virgil sat outside of. The four heroes stood around Satellizer's hospital bed. Satellizer was connected to several life support machines, and it was clear she was having difficulty breathing. Elizabeth placed her hand on Satellizer's hand, and she frowned.

The doctor glanced out the window and asked, "Is her boyfriend going to be alright?"

"He…" Azari frowned at Virgil, who was still crying outside. "He is not the one we are concerned about. How is Satellizer's condition?"

The doctor looked at Azari and shook his head. "I'm sorry, sir. When she was struck in the spine, her Heroic Stigmata were ripped right out of her."

Elizabeth took a seat and listened in horror. Roy turned from the group and stared out the window. Xenovia reached out and rested her hand on his shoulder.

The doctor continued, "Not only has her stigmata been removed from her body, but the blow delivered to her shattered her spine in three places."

"There has to be something we can do to help." Elizabeth whispered. She glanced up at Azari, "Can't you take her back to Wakanda-"

"You know I can not do such a thing without causing a stir, Elizabeth." Azari started.

Roy then grumbled out loud, as Elizabeth stood from her seat, "What's the point of having all those resources if you never plan on helping anyone with them."

Azari lowered his head, as Elizabeth stormed out of the room, clearly enraged. Xenovia moved off to Azari, to try to support him. "Azari." She tried to say.

The doctor frowned at the three remaining teenagers, and he nodded, "I should also inform you that Satellizer will not be able to stay at West Genetics for much longer." Azari and Roy glared at the doctor, who quickly cleared his throat and continued, "What I mean is, she is no longer a Pandora. Our treatment center is not meant to operate on…normal people."

"We brought her here so you could restore her stigmata." Xenovia crossed her arms at the doctor. "Can no one on the premises do such a task?"

"I don't think you understand, young lady." The doctor pointed at Satellizer, "When she received that blow into her spine, 3 of her Heroic Stigmata were damaged beyond repair. Gengo Aoi is taking back the 3 remaining Heroic Stigmata for redistribution."

"Satellizer El Bridget has been discharged from the Pandora Project and removed from West Genetics." The doctor finished, which caused Azari to clench his fists together in anger.

Xenovia noticed this, and she frowned at the king. "Azari, are you-"

Azari shook his head and turned to leave the room, "I…I must inform Violet El Bridget of her current status."

"Wait, Azari." Xenovia frowned at the young king, who swiftly walked out of the room.

Azari walked pass Virgil, who was sobbing into Elizabeth's arms. The senior Pandora held Virgil tight to her, as both of them continued to cry together. Azari looked on Virgil, who looked up at the king.

"This…this was my fault." Virgil whispered. "She wanted to leave…and I stayed. Just to settle a score."

"Virgil." Azari softly said to his friend, who shook his head in fury. "This was not your fault."

Virgil cried as he lifted his head to Azari, "The doctor says she might never walk again, Azari. Her spine has been shattered to pieces; her stigmata are gone." Virgil wiped the tears from his eyes, "They can't even heal her anymore."

"I…I am so sorry, my friend." Azari whispered to Virgil, who continued to sob in confusion. Elizabeth hugged Virgil from behind, who continued to cry out. Roy and Xenovia exited the room, and Roy took a knee and put his hand on Virgil's back. Virgil let out a final scream of agony, that filled the halls of West Genetics.


Tooting, England

Azari frowned, as he saw all the tubes connected to Violet's body. Azari watched as the staff of St. George's Hospital tried to make Violet as comfortable as possible. Azari noticed an empty newborn bed next to Violet's hospital bed. The young woman breathing increased, as she saw him.

"Get…out." Violet's eyes became filled with hatred as she growled to Azari, who nodded.

"I am sorry to disturb you-" Azari started, but Violet's eyes widened.

Violet then yelled out at Azari, "Disturb me?! Disturb me?! My sister is dying in a coma because of you! Because of you…and Virgil Hawkins." Violet then began to sob as she rested her hand on his stomach, "My sister… my child…is gone. My baby…"

"I…can not begin to apologize enough for your loss." Azari said, as his throat seemed to tighten. Azari lowered his head, "Satellizer…was a dear friend to us all-"

"You people are the reason she's here now!" Violet yelled. "I lost my sister. My daughter. My brother-"

"With all due respect." Azari nodded, "Your brother is the one who started this. He caused the attack on your resort. He kidnapped Satellizer, framed Virgil. And Satellizer is not dead-"

"She might as well be." Violet growled to Azari, who was slightly taken aback by this. "This would have never happened if she had never met Virgil Hawkins." Violet coughed out, and then pointed at Azari, "This would have never happened if she hadn't been a Titan. You…you're all monsters."

The Wakandan king shook his head and quiet said, "I'm sorry you see us in that light."

"Where is he?" Violet said glaring at Azari, who raised an eyebrow at her.

"Excuse me?"

"Where is Louis?" Violet growled, "Where are you keeping him?"

"Where am I keeping him?" Azari raised an eyebrow, "I do not have your brother. He is in S.H.I.E.L.D's custody. Most likely being questioned about his connections to the Church of Natural Divine Light."

"I want him back." Violet growled.

Azari shook his head, "I can not help you with that. I just came to give you my condolences. The Titans will be holding an emergency meeting to discuss Satellizer's condition when our leader returns-"

"I don't want your pity!" Violet growled to Azari, "And I don't want anything from the Titans! Satellizer is mine! She'll come back with me! She was my family! MINE!"

Violet began to violently cough up blood in between her cries of rage. Azari turned from her and started out of the room. Violet yelled out to him, "You killed my entire family! I hold you responsible! I hold you responsible!"


Azari walked into the Titan's Main Hall, as Arrow, Xenovia, and Elizabeth sat at the round table. Azari noticed that Elizabeth was still low and could not seem to pull herself up.

Azari stopped in his tracks, when a team picture appeared with the Titans all eating lunch together in Elizabeth's resort. Azari closed his eyes and clenched his fist in frustration.

Elizabeth shifted uncomfortably, as Xenovia moved over to comfort her. Xenovia glanced up at Azari, and noticed he was hurting as well. Before she could move, Arrow stood and moved over to the king.

"Azari," Arrow said, as he pulled off his mask, and placed a hand on Azari's shoulder. Azari began to breath slowly, as Roy nodded. "Man. Are you alright?"

"I am…" Azari sighed and nodded, "Not really." Azari then patted Roy on the back and moved over to the table.

Xenovia was supporting Elizabeth, when Azari sat in the head chair. He noticed the final empty chair at the table and sighed again.

Xenovia softly said, "How was Satellizer's sister?"

"As broken as a woman would be who lost her sister, brother, and unborn child in the span of three days." Azari coughed.

Elizabeth tried to speak in between coughs, "Maybe…maybe we should…try to reach Takumi again? Or try to call Spiderman?"

"I have tried to reach out to Takumi again. I believe he is deliberately ignoring us at this point." Azari nodded. "And I have tried to make contact with Spiderman, as well as Saeko. We must assume they are still out in space with Benjamin and Mirajane."

"Lord help them." Xenovia prayed. "They don't even know what's been happening on Earth."

"Lord help us." Roy crossed his arms in anger. "We went out to find Satellizer and Virgil to bring them back, because we needed all hands-on deck." Roy then lowered his head and growled, "And because we weren't there to support them…we've lost both of them."

Azari glanced at Roy, and Xenovia rested her hand on Roy's shoulder. Xenovia then nodded to Azari, "Virgil has locked himself in his room. And he had refused to speak with any of us."

Roy waved Xenovia off, "I left Diggle and Felicity back in West Genetics to watch over Satellizer's transport to the El Bridget's estate in Moscow. They will see her off."

"What do we do now?" Elizabeth asked, as she looked at Azari. Roy lifted his head and looked at Azari, and Xenovia looked at him as well. Azari noticed this, and he sighed. Xenovia nodded to the young king, and Azari stood tall.

"We will move forward." Azari nodded, as he began typing on the round table's computer, taking one more look at Satellizer on the team photo. Azari rested his hand on her, and the group noticed. Azari then continued typing.

"Arrow. Xenovia. You two will need to continue patrolling the streets for Shocker." Azari nodded. "He knows something about the sudden movement from the Church of Divine Light, I want him on ice."

Azari then glanced at Elizabeth. "Elizabeth, you will be needed back in Japan for the moment. Get back to West Genetics and make sure the undamaged Heroic Stigmata that were taken from Satellizer remain undamaged." Elizabeth sighed and stood, as Azari continued, "I do not have to remind you how vital those stigmata are. If Satellizer recovers-"

"When she recovers." Xenovia said to Azari, with a small smile on her face. "Let's stay positive."

"When Satellizer recovers," Azari said, putting on a hopeful smile on his face, "Wakanda will take control of the three undamaged stigmata and test her compatibility with them. They still belong to her."

"You're damn right." Elizabeth nodded.

Roy leaned forward in his seat, narrowing his eyes at Azari, as Xenovia stood with Elizabeth. Roy then pointed out, "Everyone has a job but you, fearless leader. What exactly do you plan to do?"

Azari typed a few buttons on his computer, and the picture of a young man with short white hair and red eyes. He wore a white clergy suit, with a cross around his neck. The name 'Freed Sellzen' appeared under the picture of the man.

"I have a lead on the man who currently has some of Wakanda's missing Vibranium." Azari nodded.

"The Vibranium that went missing at that weapons deal in Africa?" Elizabeth frowned, and Azari nodded glaring at Freed's picture. Elizabeth noticed this death glare and gulped, "You look like you're out for blood, Azari."

Azari silently nodded, and then looked at all his companions, "Titans. Get moving. Business as usual."


"Business as usual." Hazuki, current leader of the Church of Natural Divine Light, wore a nurse outfit and sat next to Violet El Bridget's hospital bed. Hazuki smirked as Violet shifted uncomfortably in bed. Hazuki giggled, as she rubbed her hand against Violet's life support.

"I told you already." Violet coughed, trying to not seem panicked. "I don't know any deals my brother may have made with you. I'm just trying to-"

Hazuki placed her hand on Violet's chest and applied a bit of pressure onto Violet's chest. Violet's breathing began speeding up, as Hazuki softly whispered, "Listen to me, Mrs. El Bridget. Your family is powerful, I will admit that. But they are not nearly as powerful as your brother thought they were." Hazuki began pushing down on Violet's chest, who began coughing up blood, "Louis El Bridget promised my people six Heroic Stigmata. Now that SHIELD has him, his debt is now yours."

"Heroic Stigmata?" Violet's eyes widened in fear, "I can't do-"

Hazuki punched down on Violet's chest, and an unsettling crack was heard by both Hazuki and Violet. Violet coughed up blood on Hazuki's face, who smiled at this. Violet tried to grab her chest, but Hazuki yanked the young woman's hand away.

"You owe me." Hazuki growled. "Now, how much do you love your family?"

Violet's eyes widened, and Hazuki smirked at that. Violet shook her head, "No…don't hurt my family."

Hazuki rolled her eyes and removed her hand from Violet's chest, and Violet began whizzing for air. Hazuki growled and grabbed Violet by the hair, as Violet coughed for air.

"With Louis in SHIELD's custody, you are picking up his tab." Hazuki growled, "And when you help me get what I want, I will give you what you truly want."

Violet stopped coughing, and then she asked, "You…you're going to rescue my brother?"

"Negative." Hazuki growled, as she pushed Violet's head on her pillow. "Louis will remain where he is until he is needed. And neither me, nor my partners need him. I'm talking about the sweet revenge."

Hazuki's eyes began glowing red with rage, and she smiled at Violet. "I'm going to kill Virgil Hawkins." Hazuki's smile grew as the confusion on Violet's face disappeared.
