Guess who's back

Back again

Without Me ~ Eminem

Rick held Sierra's hand tightly as they walked back into the familiar HQ they used to go to daily ten years ago, before their two kids, marriage, and then eventually hanging up their boots. But today was special, Amanda Waller had especially called for them, and that was what had intrigued Sierra.

Amanda Waller was a thick-skinned woman, never taking 'no' as an answer, and for her to call Sierra and Rick in was a big step. Considering their age, Sierra didn't look a day over thirty six, whereas Rick, who had kept his boyish charm since the first day they had met, were both doing extremely well for their age.

Sierra scanned the room to notice a whole row of people, including the Justice League and Oliver Queen. She smirked, asking the intelligent computer A.I., WALTER, in the HQ, "How far is October, WALTER?"

"It's approximately one hundred and one days, fourteen hours, and thirty-two seconds," the British-accented computerized voice responds.

Sierra then looks at the team in front of her, who had their eyes glued back to the woman, "Then why are y'all dressed like a freak-show?"

"Easy, Sierra," Oliver chuckles, distancing himself from the group of people and embracing her in a hug. "How've you been, how're the kids?"

"Oh, they're good," she smiles, then looks at Rick, "They've been quite a handful."

"Tell me about it," Oliver groans, "Imagine taking care of a sixteen year old boy."

"We're not in the teens yet, I don't want to think about it," Rick groans.

"Agent Keller," a voice speaks from above. She looks down, a smirk on her lips, before staring up at the platform, "It's nice to have you back."

"I'm glad to be back, Agent Waller," she nods back to her.

"Do we not get an introduction?," a man in a red suit asks, blazing from the chair he was sitting on to the rest of the crew, all in a split second.

"Ooh," Sierra whistled, "So, you guys are like the metahuman squad, or something?"

"The Justice League," a man in a suit responds. His hair was greying at the sides with age, but he looked physically fit enough to pack a punch.

"Bruce Wayne," Sierra smiled, walking over to the team and shaking his hand, "Pleasure to finally meet you."

"The pleasure's all mine, Agent Keller," he smiles, "I've heard a lot about you, from your time in the CIA to leading Task Force X."

"All good, I hope," she tucked her, now blonde, hair behind her ear.

"Mostly," he smirks.

Rick comes up behind her, snaking his arm around her waist, pulling her in to his side. She let out a stifled chuckle, noticing the slight jealousy that forced him to execute his actions, as she lightly leaned against him.

"So, introductions?," Rick changed the topic, looking at everyone in the crew.

"The Flash," the same man in the red suit zipped up in front of the pair, "Glad to meet you."

"Let me take care of the introductions, kid," Bruce sighed, waving his hand in dismissal. He pointed at the man, "Barry Allen, everyone."

"Oh, so, you're the man that arrested my brother," Sierra cocked an eyebrow. "Shocker."
