Kid Flash and Aqualad are playing virtual air hockey, KF gets one into Kaldur's goal. Kaldur looks stunned, before glaring competitively at Kid Flash, who's eating a banana.
Recognize: Superboy; B-0-4
He walks across the room with a angry expression on his face. "Hi Superboy." M'gann tried, as Superboy walks through the game, making Robin take a step to the side. "How was Metropolis?" M'gann continues, even as Superboy walked past them. Black Canary clears her throat behind Kid Flash, catching their attention as she, S/n, and Martian Manhunter step out of the shadows. "Ready for training, everyone?" M'gann is the first to say something. "Black Canary! S/n! Uncle J'onn!" She goes up and hugs her uncle. "M'gann, I was in the neighborhood so I thought I'd see how you are adjusting." Martian Manhunter says, putting a hand on her shoulder. "A few bumps, but I'm learning." She assures, Superboy watches before going to walk away but S/n sees and nudges Canary in his direct. "That's all I ask." "Stick around." Canary calls out, getting Superboy's attention which he stops walking. "Class is in session." He turns around and crosses his arms over his chest. Canary walks to the center of the room, turning the floor white. S/n soon following. "I consider it an honor to be your teacher." Canary says turning back to the group of teens, she pulls on her jacket slightly. "I'll throw a lot at you everything I've learned from my own mentors." She continues, as both girls take off their jackets, Canary had a tear around her arm while S/n had one wrapped around her abdomen. They both grunt through the pain as they finish taking it off. "And my own bruises." She confesses, both girls holding the wrapping. "What happened?" M'gann asks, worriedly. Robin and KF wondering what happened to S/n. "The job." S/n replied as both girls throw their jackets away, S/n walks over next to Wally. He gently wraps a arm around her waist pulling her slightly closer. Black Canary sees this and raises a brow, before giving her daughter a look. "Now combat is about controlling conflict. Putting the battle on your terms. You should always be acting, never reacting." Canary tells them. "I'll need a partner." "Right here. Yeah!" Kid Flash calls out, raising his hand. He meets her in the middle, finishing the banana. "After this...swish." He says as he makes his banana in the garbage. "I'll show you my moves." "Hey S/n, you're gonna need a new boyfriend after this." Robin said jokingly to the female heroin, but everyone heard. She laughs, Wally looks at her with fake offense. "Babe." Her laughs turn into coughs to hide it. "Sorry." He turns back around facing Black Canary. She smiles at him. She throws a quick jab, which he blocks, but his feet was taken out from under him, before he can do anything. He hits the floor. The floor reading.
Kid Flash Status : Failed
"Oh, hurts so good." He manages. "Good block. But did anyone see what he did wrong?" She asks, as she helps him back to his feet. Robin too excited answers. "Ooh, ooh. He hit on his girlfriend's mother aka teacher and got served." Kid Flash holds his shoulder, looks at Robin annoyed and horrified that Robin said that. "Dude!" "He allowed me to dictate the terms of-." She begins before being cut off by Superboy. "Oh please. With my powers, the battle's always on my terms. I'm a living weapon, and this is a waste of my time." Canary smiles at him, craving a fight, proved in her eyes. "Prove it." He eyebrows raises, before walking into the ring. As he stands before Canary, Kid Flash quickly walks backwards towards the others. S/n wraps her arm around his waist, while he wraps a arm around her shoulder. They both get in a fighting stance. He throws a punch at her, but she takes a step back before grabbing his arm. Throwing him across the ring. Robin points and laughs until Aqualad elbows him. He doesn't stop laughing but covers his mouth. S/n snickers into Wally's shoulder.
Superboy Status: Failed
He pushes himself back onto his knees. "You're angry. Good, but don't react. Channel that anger-." Before she can finish, Superboy charges at her with another punch. She jumps over him, he turns to hit her, but she drops swiping her leg taking his feet out from under him. Once again the floor reads.
Superboy Status: Failed
Robin muffled his laughter while S/n leans her head on Kid Flash's shoulder, he kisses her head, she leaned further into him, which made him tighten his grip on her slightly. Canary offers him a hand but he gets up on his own. "That's it. I'm done." "Training is mandatory." Canary says as he starts walking away, she puts a hand on his shoulder but he shakes it off. Before it can escalate any further, the whole room beeps. Opening a holoscreen appears Batman. "Batman to the Cave." Everyone rushes over. "5 hours ago. A new menace attacked Green Arrow, Black Canary, and S/n. The attacker was capable of studying, the duplicating the powers and abilities of its opponents."
On a smaller screen shows a picture of the attacker before it becomes a video feed. S/n stands in front of it before drawing a rune on the lower part of her right upper arm.
She lets out a canary cry throwing him back before she stops, her bracelet sliding down till it's a whip. She snaps it in his direction, he catches it before doing a half circle and lets go as she hits the wall. Superman goes for a punch, only for it to get caught and the 'attacker' uses Superman to take out Red Tornado, then Flash, then S/n, before throwing the alien. Then turning, using laser eyes to take out two batarangs.
"Arrow called in reinforcements," Batman continues as the video paused. "which nearly proved disastrous as our foe gained more and more power with each new combatant." "Whoa." Kid Flash exclaimed, the first one to say something. "One guy with the powers of the entire League?" Kid Flash, Robin, and Aqualad all now have worried expressions while M'gann looked nervously and Superboy had a clenched jaw."In the end, it took nine Leaguers four hours to defeat and dismantle the android." Batman informs, which catches Robin's attention. "An android?" He questioned. "Who built it, T.O. Morrow?" He asked as he stepped up. "Good guess, Robin." Batman states, causing Superboy to look down as he looks down, seeing the relationships between the League and the Team. "But Red Tornado doesn't think so." "The technology bears the signature of Professor Ivo." Manhunter tells them. "Ivo?" Aqualad questions, shocked. "But Ivo's dead." Canary and S/n looked over their shoulders. "So we all thought." The older female Leaguer said as the younger one finished. "Or hoped." "To make certain this threat is permanently neutralized, we're sending two trucks carrying the Android's parts to two seperate STAR Labs facilities. In Boston and New York. We'll have four additional trucks to create confusion in case Ivo or anyone tries to recover the remains. You will split into undercover teams to safeguard the two real trucks." "Yes!" Kid Flash says excitedly. "Road trip." S/n hits his stomach with the hand that wasn't wrapped around his waist to try to slightly disliplene, Canary turns and looks at the speedster with a angered look, while the Atlantean and Martian girl look at him confused. Robin glares behind his mask."So now we take out your trash?" Superboy questions angrily. "You had something better to do?" Batman and S/n counters, the Boy of Steel looks away. "You really are his daughter." Canary mutters under her breath just as Aqualad's transmitter goes off. "Coordinates recieved. On our way." Aqualad confirms, everyone but Superboy runs off.
Litchfield County | August 3rd; 20:08
In a field near the highway, were 6 trucks, the part of the dismantled Android was being loaded. Overseeing it was Red Tornado, Atom, Green Arrow, Flash, and Superman. Turning away, the Kryptonian used his enhanced vision the see the team waiting on their motorcycles. Aqualad and M'gann on blue ones, Kid Flash on yellow, Superboy and Robin on red, and S/n on grey. He turns to Superboy, who returns his gaze but Superman turns away. Superboy looks down, before sliding on his helmet. The engines from the trucks rev, letting them know to get ready to go, as they all rev their cycles, before putting their helmets on. "STAR Boston is a go." Is heard over the comms, three trucks ready. "STAR Manhattan is go." GA nods to Batman who gives the signal. The trucks pull out in two opposite directions. Robin, Superboy, and S/n go right. While, Aqualad, M'gann, and Kid Flash go left. Leaving the older heroes behind as soon the leave, only leaving Batman and Superman behind.

Two of the trucks make a right hand exit, as the last one goes straight, which Robin, Superboy, and S/n follow. Robin zooms to the right of Superboy while S/n is on his left but the Boy Wonder starts up a conversation. "If dislike is the opposite of like, is disaster the opposite of aster? See, if things are going wrong, they go right." Superboy ignores Robin. "Uh, clearly you're not feeling the aster? What's wrong?"
"Canary." He replied, instantly. "And what business does she have teaching combat skills to a guy with super-strength?" He questions. "Um, Canary and Batman raised me, my whole life. Those two were the ones that taught me everything I know. Don't get me wrong the League is my family, my home, but the rest of the Leaguer's are like aunts and uncles. I had super strength like you, I thought I didn't need to know combat but Canary taught me that you don't always need to use you're powers on the field." She informed the Kryptonian, who looked at her with a unreadable expression on his face. "Taking down stronger guys is apart of the job." Robin continues, the female Leaguer humming in agreement. "Canary learned that the hardest. Same with S/n. Same with Batman and, well, me." He hesistated to include himself, but the Kryptonian just revs his cycle closer to the truck. "Hey." The girl said as she made her way closer to the Boy Wonder. "It's cute. I like the word." She told him, making him slightly blush but she doesn't notice. "BTW, he is so not feeling aster." She laughed, as Robin gave her a goofy grin.
"Robin, Superboy, S/n. Our truck is under attack." Aqualad's voice said through the comms. "Ditto over here." S/n said while Robin said. "Kind of figures." They look to see monkey-robots attached onto their truck. "I hate monkeys." Superboy said, anger clear in his voice. The truck starts to swerve. "Robot monkeys." Robin declared, a laugh escaping his lips. "Totally Ivo's tweaked style." Robin presses a button on his motorbike, the back half falling away and into the sky. "Hey, switch your bikes to battle mode." He advised. "No point." Superboy grunted, before leaping off his bike and landing on the truck. S/n swerved to avoid his motorcycle. "I'm gonna go help Superidiot over there." She announced before standing and, jumping, pushing herself off the handlebars. She grabbed the top of the truck, Superboy helping her up. Robin leapt too, using a grappling hook that attaches to the back of the truck, pulling him there. While Superboy went against three monkeys, S/n's bracelet turned into a whip. She slashed it at the monkeys which made some fall of the truck while others dodged or either got cut in half by. Four monkeys dragged Superboy into the sky, both watching as Superboy fell to the ground, and collided with it. The monkeys tackled S/n on the ground, hearing a thump, her eyes glow gold as Robin stabs a few monkeys off her, she feels her agony/cry rune being activated. She lets out a canary cry on one side which destroys them before doing the same to the other. She jumps back on her feet as Robin flipped over her, bringing out two escrima sticks as he landed. Superboy landed behind the h/c female heroin, sending some of the monkeys off the truck. His feet slammed into the truck, grabbing monkeys as they grappled with him.
The truck began to swerve, S/n tries to keep her balance while still battling. "Get out." She heard the Boy Wonder faintly shout, as he warned the driver. She felt a hand grab hers, she yelped at the action as she was sent flying off the truck with the owner. Wincing, as they landed in the tall grass beside the road. She landed on top of something, she lifts her head up to see she landed on top of Robin, chest to chest. She quickly blushed, before looking down. Robin looked at her confused before realizing their position, he too blushed. They both quickly get up. "Are you alright?" He asked, urgently trying to change the subject. She rolls her eyes. "Yeah, yeah. I'm fine." They exited the grass to see the Monkeys flying off with the red box, both groaning. "Stupid Monkeys." S/n said, as she slammed her foot into the ground, before crossing her arms.
