The House of the Wayward Hero (DCU)

After we've investigate the scene, I think it would be best for a week of time jump so our characters can be a bit more familiar with each other.

The House of the Wayward Hero (DCU)

Athena & Tech

---

La Vida: Wayward House > Lobby

Athena bit on her lower lip, the sudden attitude from James, it was expected though. Maybe this was a bad Idea, maybe they should’ve came up with a better plan, all she wanted to do was help. La Vida had been forgotten by the rest of the city, most didn’t even know about this side of Los Angeles. She watched Ashlyn climb the stairs and exit out of view. The teen looked down at the floor trying to come up with a better plan something more than just hoping people would just follow their example.

Matt clicked his tongue in frustration at how that guy made Athena feel, he knew letting in people would be a bad idea. He was ok with the old lady, but James was a head case, it’s always the cute ones with issues he thinks to himself. Matt put a hand on Athena’s shoulder, “It’s gonna be fine. Look I know how stress you get when you wanna make something go perfectly but it was never going to go that way so just stay strong and whatever happens, happens. Just remember I’ll always be here for you.” Matt says with a reassuring smile.

Athena looks up and smiles at Matt placing her hand on his, she thinks about a time where Katarina said those words but now she was gone. Would it be the same for Matt one day, she thought. No, she couldn’t think that way, this was not the time to be thinking so dark, she had make this work no matter what.

“Thanks Matt, I know and you’re right.” Athena says trying her best to not sound as concerned as she felt. “So, will you coming out with us or will you be here providing support?” she says with a smile that reaches her eyes.

“Hmm, think I’ll stay behind and start looking through the data base of criminals that operate around La Vida that match the modus operandi of our killer. See if I can find something that the L.A.P.D has over looked.” He says walking to his computer.

“You know, hacking is against the law, you don’t want to become a harden criminal yourself,” Athena smirks at Matt.

Matt sticks his tongue out at the older teen and smiles saying, “if they didn’t want people to get into their stuff they shouldn’t make it so easy.”

Athena laughs and walks to wait by the door for Ashlyn and hopefully James, she really did want this to work and if one day they became a team that would be awesome, first though, they had to at least get along.

La Vida: Nate’s home.

Katarina put her bowl of cereal down on the table and shifted to laying down on the sofa, her head toward Nate and lift her shirt just enough for the boy to get a look at her wound. The left side of her rib cage was bruise but thankfully the swelling went away thanks to the ice. Kat let out a groan as she slid her shirt back down. “I got shot doing a job, thank whatever deity is out there that I was wearing a vest, or I’d be dead or worse, in prison.” She said rubbing her side gently.

She turned her head and got a glimpse of the familiar living room, it wasn’t as dirty as it was the last time she had visit. “You picked up, you find a nice girl to make babies with and become a good and honest man?” she said jokingly.

San Francisco: Somewhere in the city.

Raven had found some police officers surrounded by these constructs, they seemed to have been targeting the ones that try to protect. The teen brought a barrier up protecting officers before they could be smashed into bits by the giants and with the information that Roy had given she had made short work of the four metal constructs being precise in destroying the power source.

She flew down to the police officers to make sure that were not hurt, they did not seem to be hurt, and they thanked her for the help and moved on helping civilians get to safety. Raven felt foolish think that only the titans were able to save the city, there were others out here doing their best to save their city. Raven flew away becoming inspired by the people who were trying to save others even when they had no powers.

Hearing the buzzing of electricity coming close, she turned to find new types of constructs, they were smaller, the size of her arm and in the form of drones and seemed to be powered by smart phones. There were more then fifteen and all coming directly for her. The teen swiped the air with her soul-self taking the shape of a talon and took out five of the drones, however, there were more and as they got close they shot electricity. Raven was able to shield most of them though she was struck from the back and sent falling to the ground.

Seconds from meeting the ground with her face she was able to gain control and fly again, though the drones that were following close were not so fortunate as they slammed into the ground shattering into pieces and sparking out. ‘Raven note to Raven number 2: Do not get hit by electricity, it hurts.’ The teen pats out a piece of her cloak that was smoldering from the electricity and continued to fly looking for the source of this chaos and still being pursued by the flying constructs. Raven turned sharply around a building and waited for the swarm of drones to follow where she swatted the machines out of the air and into the side of the building.

Moments later she flies down to meet Arsenal and looks to where he is looking, the elemental stood as electricity arched off its form. “W-what is this being?” Raven says in awe.

Raven's complexion turned pale as the man explained how they came to this world, she thought of the moment her father broke his binding and reached out for her only to find a door way from him to freely use. She began to fear, though this time she would not lose control, Raven buried her emotions deep as she had done her whole life. She felt foolish for thinking her nightmare was over so easily.

"I must return to my world, if you what you say is true and there is indeed an open path way from my father's realm to here then your world is in more danger then you could possibly know. If my father breaks from his prison and searches for me he will find that pathway and come to conquer this world and any other world that he can step foot on." Raven says with no hint of emotion.

Shadows began to bellow out from the girls cloak as she returns her hood over her covering her face in darkness, "For a moment, I thought I could be free but it seems it was not meant to be." She says letting a sad smile reach her mouth. Her body is completely blacked in shadow then that too is gone leaving no trace of the hooded girl. However, it is only moments before the space Raven had occupied was filled again with shadow before the girl was spat out and sent flying past the King and Queen only to be stopped by the wall on the opposite side of the room. Her body slides to the floor as she goes unconscious.

La Vida: Wayward House > Lobby

Matt snapped his fingers and the monitor on the wall behind him turned on and a recording of the afternoons news flicked on. ‘Family found dead in home after what looks to be a home invasion, although police have not revealed what lead to this tragedy but locals fear that it was one of the many gangs that are here in La Vida…’ The TV is muted as the news continues to play, as the slain family is shown a man, a woman, and two children. At the bottom of the screen read the Blake family. As the story changes to one of the newest missing children in Los Angeles.

“I know that it feels overwhelming, that it can feel pointless to even try, but it only takes one cog to start moving to cause a machine many times its size to come to life.” Matt begins to say but loses confidence as he realizes he is speaking to strangers.

The room grows quite for a moment but then Athena breaks the silence, “What Matt means is, we are not gathering here to save this neighborhood or the city by ourselves. We are here to start a movement, to spark a flame in the heart of the people. Super-man isn’t coming to save us, there is no god that’s going to bring us salvation, we are going to have to save ourselves, one person at a time if that is what it calls for.”

Matt snaps his fingers again and the TV turns off, “What she said. In the mean time rooms are up stairs all the rooms on the next floor are prepared for you guys, though they only a have a bed for furniture.”

“As when we are to start, it is up to you I suppose. Matt and I do not know much about running a team,” Athena says blushing, she realized it could seem that they didn’t have a plan. “We gathered to support each other and hopefully we will come together as a ‘team’ later on.”

Athena turned to Ashlyn and her dogs, “of course you may take a room to keep whatever gear that you want here.”

Los Angeles: Somewhere Downtown

Friday night, Katarina finally comes to consciousness after her run in with the police the other night. She wakes up in her bed and struggles to roll out of bed, she didn’t think that her ribs where broken, but they hurt like crazy. She takes a few steps to the toward her room door but gives up and teleports around the apartment taking care of her business.

Katarina comes to a stop at her kitchen table with a bowl of Cocoa Pebbles and is about to devour her unhealthy dinner when her phone begins to ring. With a groan Kat reaches for her phone on the other side of the table, she looks to see who is calling and considers if she should answer, she looks around her empty apartment and sighs. “Hey, you home?” she asks holding onto her bowl then teleporting to Nate’s sofa not waiting for an answer. She takes a bite of her cereal and crunches, “Ay, you here?”

The House of the Wayward Hero (DCU)

The House of the Wayward Hero (DCU)

La Vida: Wayward House > Lobby

Athena scratched the back of the dog’s ears and nuzzled their muzzles, she enjoyed animals. She had found that she could see their thoughts, but it was strange, she only understood their base thoughts like hungry, tired, angry, and right now happy was on their minds. However, when the two dogs suddenly stopped and returned to their master’s side they thought, stranger.

The teen stood up and dusted the dog hair from her shirt and pants, she could tell who it was before seeing the young man walk up to the entrance. Athena was grateful that Ashley had train her dogs so well, having them start barking at the arrival of James would have been a bad start at a budding friendship. “Ah- h-hello…James,” the teen started as she crossed an arm over her chest as a nervous reaction to the newcomer. She didn’t know if she should use their names or their hero alias, so it was a bit awkward.

“Oh, please come in. I have prepared some snacks and drinks for everyone as we introduce ourselves…” Athena says becoming increasing aware of her awkwardness. The teen leads the pair further into the lobby where Matt is still working.

“Welcome, Wildheart and Knight, to Wayward Manner. Please take one of the communications devices as a gift of friendship.” A computerized voice says as the three pass a table where there are four devices that look like smart phones. A sphere like drone flies into the lobby from the staircase that leads up to the rooms, the drone then produces a light that shines down to the ground and it starts to take the form of a human female. The hologram girl shows the appears of a girl with short blonde hair and ethereal blue eyes and is wearing a white unitard.

“Hello, I am Guardian, but you may call me Aliya. I am an artificial intelligence that was programmed to learn and replicate human interaction. I am currently being utilized by my creator as an over glorified maid,” The holo-girl says with as much attitude as a hologram with a monotone voice could muster.

“Enough, Guar- I mean Aliya. Just show them how to use the phones…” Matt says impassively as he stepped out from around his work table. The teen was wearing a navy blue V-neck sweater vest and a white dress shirt under, he also had black skinny fit jeans and black laced up boots. The teen looked like he was on his way to a business meeting.

“Very well master,” Aliya says causing Matt to put his palm over his face at the word master. “This communication device is much like the newest Queen Industries smartphones that has been set to release later this year, though as Matthew is the original creature he has made a few just for you all, how very exciting.” She says holding up a hologram of the phone. “Now, this is the first phone that will be released to the public with holographic features, though, in all honesty this tech is rather dated compared to the augmented reali—” Matthew snaps a finger and the holo-girl blinks off leaving the drone to float away.

“My bad, she’s a bit much…never let an AI tune their own personalities,” Matt says stepping in. “Just slide the phone open to access the phone the rest is pretty self-explanatory once you start playing with it.” He says trailing off as though his mind is somewhere else. “Oh, umm My name is Matt, it’s nice to finally meet you both properly,” the teen says as he snaps back to James and Ashley.

Cinix Defenders' Base

Raven was a patient person, though she was getting annoyed with this mucho bravado the two barbarians with swords were displaying. However, she could understand how they felt, quite literally in fact. "I have to side with the queen on this, even though I am grateful that I am no longer within reach of my father, I too was stolen from my dimension as I was traveling to my home world." The empath says as she folded her arms over chest, showing the two she was not interesting in fighting. "Maybe it is time to explain why we were summon to this place." Raven's grey eyes set on the agent.
