(Hawkgirl) Shayera finishes putting on the dress, taking a moment to open the top drawer. The socks were neatly folded and organized in a careful color spectrum.
"I cannot believe I'm letting you talk me into this." She turns to the bathroom, where John Stewart is about to bring a razor to his beard. "I liked the beard."
"It doesn't look as good since you grew back your hair." Shayera chuckles. "and besides, it's a wedding, you should look your best."
"Well, when you put it like that." John finishes shaving, and puts on his ring. His Green Lantern dress uniform materializes around him.
"Well, how do I look now?" John asks.
Shayera's response is a kiss. "Like the man I fell in love with."
The walls of the Watchtower quarters shake, and then shatter. There's a brief hiss as the air escapes into the vacuum of space. You gasp for air, as you look for John. You see him floating in the void, with an armored figure is choking the life out of him.
The armored man turns his head, seeing you beating your wings against the void, trying to reach John, His eyes glow with white light, and suddenly the icy cold of space is replaced with searing white heat...Hawkgirl wakes up in her bedroom. Whatever that was, it was too real to be a dream. (Green Lantern, Flash, Green Arrow) The three of you report to the Watch Hall, as Mr. Terrific looks over the duty roster. "Alright, looks like you're working with Hawkgirl and...oh, this is gonna be good." He smiles. "You're heading to St. Roch - looks like our friend Carter Hall has found something he wants us to take a look at." (Batman) Batman could tell something was bothering J'Onn, though most would be unable to tell. He looked...uncomfortable, as the two of you walked down the corridor to the Watchtower. "Tell me, Batman, do you still have concerns about the League? About going too far?" |

 *Batman's eyes narrow a bit, his face tightens* "After what I've seen? Anything is possible." *Batman walks in his cape draped down over his shoulders, giving his a dark silhouette quality amid all the glowing screens of the watchtower displaying different locations in the world. Batman's eyes shift back to J'onn J'onzz.* "What is really bothering you is the Monarch." *His words are a bit of a lower tone than before, what he says is said to his comrade only, in a way that those teleporting in from mission below wouldn't overhear.* |

Shayera sighs as she rubs her eyes. That dream had been incredibly real and, for a second, Shayera let herself remember how things had been with John before she had ruined everything. The appearance of the man who had been killing John gets a glare and she hopes she never runs into him as she wouldn't be too polite.
Shaking the cobwebs, Shayera quickly gets ready for the day and heads out to the kitchen to get something to eat before find out what her assignment for the day is.

" Can you tell us what it is, or will that ruin our suprise?" Oliver asked, crossing his arms and resting them atop his bow. He glanced around," not like Shayera to be late."

"I understand Bats being sent to look at something, but me? Is it because I ate the last choco cookie?"

If J'Onn was surprised by Batman's response, he didn't show it. "Of course. Then you understand my concern. If the Atom is correct, then this Monarch is a member of the League. I thought it best to eliminate you first. Of all of us, you are the most capable of defeating us, if it came to that. I'd like to compare notes, if you...no, of course not. Very well." J'Onn and Batman enter the Watchhall where GA, GL, Flash are waiting at the teleporter. Hawkgirl lands on the pad, fully dressed and prepared. They are joined by Dr. Light, who seems rather displeased to be there.  J'Onn walks to the controls. "Hawkman has found an artifact of unknown alien origin - not Thanagarian - that he has brought to his museum in St. Roch. I thought it best to investigate, and so you six will have to determine what it is and if it presents any threat." Dr. Light rolls her eyes. "Very well. " She folds her arms. The teleporter activates and the six Leaguers find themselves standing in the museum's front lobby. Carter Hall, the archeologist who has taken the name "Hawkman" descends from the second-story balcony on his own wings.  "Thank you for coming so soon." He responds. Taking a moment to look at Hawkgirl, he tries to muster a small smile. "Shayera, you are looking well." |

*Batman gives J'onn a look.*
*Batman says to J'Onn* "I have already established contingency plans should my judgment ever fail and I go rogue, and I trained them all personally." *indicating his own protégés have orders from him to take him out in the event of such a thing ever occurring.*
*Batman looks to J'onn again then to the group standing already on the teleporter pad listening to Mr. Terrific's run-down of the briefing he already read.*
"If I were you J'onn, I wouldn't rule anyone out so quickly."

"Great, a class trip to the museum." GA yawned. " A nice boring assignment for a change."
Once teleported, Oliver glanced at Dr. Light and her less than enthusiasm ," What's up, Doc?" He asked with a smirk.

Shayera nods at Carter with a polite, formal smile and says, "Thank you." Getting right down to business, Shayera asks, "You have an artifact that you want us to look at?"

"Must be something strange if J'onn sends me along on this little expedition."

"Very much so, Flash. I unearthed it in Peru. At first I thought it might be Thanagarian, perhaps from another crashed ship, or something the Thanagarian invasion force buried - a booby trap. But I didn't find any traces of Nth Metal, so I thought it best to bring in the League. Right this way." Hawkman leads the group to small work table.
"The craftwork is definitely native, and Nazca. Are you familiar with the significance?
Dr. Light snorts out. "They built large drawings that people could only see from the sky. Forgive me, but for an archeologist you are beginning to sound like a conspiracy theorist, and we already have one of those in the League."
Hawkman continues. "but there is something here, an energy signature inside the clay work - perhaps if someone could analyze it, it could prove to be an astounding discovery." the big man smiles like a kid with a new toy.
Dr. Light, unimpressed, looks over the small idol infront of her. "My powers allow me to see the entire electromagnetic spectrum, and I am getting something from just past the X-ray wavelength spectrum.....What the-!"
The room fills with a golden light, and an instant later, you find yourself in the middle of a desert, under an emerald sky.
Hawkman draws out a sword. "This...was not what I was expecting."
The ground shakes beneath you. , and barely 12 feet in front of the group, a twenty foot long tentacle rips out of the sound, and you hear a loud roar directly beneath you.

Oliver immediately went for his bow. " I knew this wasn't going to go smoothly. It never does with Bats around. " He began backing off with an arrow notched, but didn't fire yet.

*Batman to Oliver* "Smooth is over-rated, almost as much that country club you're a member of."
*readies his batarang but does not throw it yet*
"Trying to gain local support in Star City with future voting constituents, perhaps?"

Shayera frowns as she asks Carter, "Just what are you getting us into?" Grabbing her mace, Shayera keeps an eye open on the tentacle, ready to defend herself if necessary.
