Hey guys, this is MegaRdaniels bringing you the first chapter for the crossover fanfic, "March On The Black Gate: The Dawn of the Lords". I hope you all enjoy this fic. This is my first Justice League crossover, but my 4th/5th Ben 10 crossover. Please, always leave reviews, they are always appreciated. Thankyou!

Prologue

Heroes are those that protect those who cannot fight for themselves from evil's wake. They guide those who are in need who needed help the most. But there comes a time when all heroes turn against the things they stand for.

"Liberalism is totalitarianism with a human face."

- Thomas Sowell

In a little farm in Smallville, a blonde, teenaged girl, Kara was watching the news of a Superhero - or so named as a "Superior" Outbreak raging across the globe. Clips showed from Wonder Woman and the other Amazons taking large parts of Asia and Europe, Superman occupying the Eastern Sea-border of the United States, and Canada, J'onn J'onns controlling most of the South American continent and so on. Superman's family was by what the Man of Steel was doing - and did.

"Oh my god," said Ma Kent.

Kara was just as shocked as her aunt and uncle. Every meta-human were up on it. Suddenly, the broadcast became static then replaced by a video showing a man wearing a black cowl, who wore a black armored suit. His cowl covered half of his face and in the middle of his chest stood the ever famous insignia of a yellow ellipse with an image of a bat in the middle. Batman was broadcasting.

"People of the world, due to President Lex Luthor's assassination, we are calling in a Global Martial Law. No one leaves the city, town, or village limits of your place. Those who disobeys those laws would be punished. Remember, this is all for your safety, Batman out," said the Dark Knight, cutting the broadcast off. It was all many people feared. Kara, Martha, and Jonathon Kent were all appalled.

"What has happened to my son?" Martha asked.

Jonathan hugged his wife to assuage her. Kara wants to talk to Superman about this. Martha and Jonathon disagrees, Jonathon being the contentious one.

"But..."

"No, I'm going to risk it. I've already lost my son. I am not going to lose my niece," said Jonathon.

Kara had no choice to take his word - for now that is. Besides, there were thousands of "Super Lords" that all either admire, worship, or friends with The Man of Steel.

Kara kept quiet and went to her feet, pondering of what was going on in her cousin's mind. Growing worried about the man in blue.

Several Days Later

In about several days, The Justice Lords had taken over the world. In the Watch Tower, every one that signed on to the League were waiting for the founding members. When they arrived, Superman was giving his speech about making the world a better place for not just for them, but for the average person, making everyone safe by ruling the Earth with an iron fist.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of the League, Batman, Hawk Girl, Green Lantern, Flash, J'onn, Wonder Woman, and myself are planning to make a global power, a global nation, one that everyone is equal. We're calling it a Ultacracy, a government where the people of the League, and only the League can rule and make laws. Batman, J'onn, and Wonder Woman here will be the head role of the legislature, Flash, Hawk Girl, and Black Canary will be the ones in charge of the Judicial Systems," said Superman.

"And where will you and the rest?" asked the woman wearing a black suit and black leggings of some kind known as the Black Canary.

"I will," said Superman, "And as that, I promise to keep freedom and peace alive, as do all of us," said Superman. everyone clapped and cheered at their new global leader, unbeknownst to everyone, Kara (in her white tank top with Superman's insignia in the front, and blue skirt) was way in the back now frightened at Superman and the League's newfound, political power.

"It's worse than I thought," said Kara, now frightened at the League newly found, heightened political power.

Several Hours Later

Kara was flying home; she flew above the town of Central City, Flash's hometown. She headed home for Smallville which was a few hundred miles away. She could fly in super speed, but she doesn't want to attract attention, nor suspicion. The world was under the totalitarian rule under the Man of Steel, Superman. Before she left the city limits, she was suddenly shot by an arrow.

"Owch!" she yelled. Normally, these things won't harm her, unless the arrow was made out of kryptonite. The small dose of it was enough to bring the Supergirl down to the ground.

When she crashed on the ground, two figures, one who was faceless who wore a blue hat, and a suit, and a woman who was barely dressed who had a crossbow in her left hand. Both picked up the powerhouse and dragged in the apartment.

When Kara regained consciencness, she found herself in a chair strapped by a rope which filled by kryptonite dust, the last batch of which Huntress swiped from Batman.

"Let me go!" Kara ordered.

"Fat chance, princess," Huntress said, "You're the one that goes by the name of Supergirl, the cousin of the Super-Hitler himself, aren't I right?" she asked.

"Superman, is not a..."

"...What? A savior to the human race. You were up there, you know what he did, and what he is now capable of," said Huntress.

"You're..."

The Question then broke the power house's thoughts.

"Don't lie, you know. You know what I know, and what I know is what I warned years ago about the expanding league. What did he say?" asked The Question impatiently, but nonchalantly.

"He's creating a world government, under the control of superhumans. I didn't want to believe it, but seeing - hearing him doing these things - for the people. I, I don't know what to make out."

"I can see it clearly," said the Question.

"But it's not him, I swear to you it's not. He has to be controlled or something. It could be Darkseid, or the Joker, or...or..."

"Kid, listen to me if I tell you, the man, your cousin that you loved, he is not the man who once protected Metropolis, he is the mere evil that he once protected from. If he killed Luthor, think of who he could kill next? It could be anyone, even in the League itself," said the Question.

"What are you going to do?" asked Kara.

"What do you think? We're going to rust the Man of Steel to the ground," said Huntress loading up.

"But you can't kill him, let me talk to him. Please," said Kara.

There was a debate, and unsurement to trust a League member, matter a fact a superhuman, not only was Superman's cousin, but capable (if push to that edge) to kill anybody who crosses her.

It wasn't easy, but it was necessary. They let Supergirl go, only for them to keep a close eye on her. Luckily for Huntress, she was able to swipe some of Luthor's technology and put it on Kara. The object was so small, that not even a Kryptonian (such as herself) could detect it. Huntress and the Question were literally eyeing on Kara.

At the Watchtower...

Superman and the other Leaguers were signing a document similar to the Declaration of Independence. In the teleportation platform where Kara stood, the blue light that brought her to the tower began to fade away. Superman saw his niece and approached her just in the nick of time for her to print her name on the document.

"Kara, you finally made it to the tower," said the Man of Steel smiling.

"Yeah, yeah it was," said Kara worriedly. This wasn't lost on the Boy Scout.

"Kara, what's wrong? Superman asked worried.

Kara looked at the Man of Steel.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"You," she said simply.

Superman rose an eyebrow,

"Me? How?" he asked.

"Is it true what the Question said, what he predicted? she asked.

"What are you talking about?" he asked.

"You transforming the Earth into a totalitarian rule," said Kara, a little louder that time.

"Totalitarianism? Kara, listen, all those rumors people are putting out there, we are not here on this Earth to be the bad guys. We are protecting the people from both themselves and the things around them. At any moment, life could end in a blink of an eye. So, don't worry yourself of what others say. We are here for liberty, that is all," he said, making the Powerhouse to smile.

A Year Later

Suspicions and hatred towards the Super-legion grew as the Watchtower retaliated by sending off their massive troops of superhumans down towards the Earth to restore order back to the planet. Months went by as chaos and destruction overwhelmed the entire planet. Nations fell and resistance against the League grew. Then finally it happened, Armageddon.

After the monsterous war, the survivors were sent to camps. By each passing day, Superman became mad with power.

On the Earth's surface, Superman was looking for his cousin, sadly she was nowhere to be found.

"KARA!" he screamed.

Author's Notes: Hi there, this is MegaRdaniels bringing you my very first Justice League crossover. I was going for a Matrix/Hunger Games crossover, but seeing I saw the Hunger Games once, the crossover was moreover going to blow. what i do is that before i write a fanfic, i need to see a specific cannon repeatedly in order for me to write the fanfic perfectly. So if you like that crossover, then that's good. I might write sometimes in the near future. Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed this fic. Chapter 1 will come soon. Remember, always leave reviews, they are always appreciated. Until we meet again, I bid you all an adieu and...

Peace!
