Down To Business (Bendytimed: Not long after the first 'JLI' mission)
The defeat of the monsters had gone well. And their antics in Asia were still getting some attention. And Jai had finally manned up, so she didn't have to stay mad at him. So Cindy called up everyone had been involved in their ad-hoc strike force for a meeting.

She leaves Daddy out of it this time, sitting in a nice, high-backed chair. The kind a girl can steeple her fingers in, waiting for them to arrive.

Jai appears shortly thereafter in full uniform. He's not big on being summoned, and he is trying to remember that he and Cindy aren't mad at each other anymore.

"You called?" he asks.

"Yeah. I really want to talk to everyone on our little ad-hoc emergency prevention committee from before." Pause. "By the way, thanks for coming through on that even when we wanted to smack each other in the face repeatedly," she adds sincerely.

"You're Traya's friend and you were right. I was being unfair to her." Jai says.

"We'll fix things, though. She's pretty amazing, even when she doesn't have to be."

If Cindy had any more words for Jai, they would be interrupted by a blur of red and gold. For most (including Jai) those colors moving that fast would normally indicate a Flash.

Not this time.

"Hi, Cindy! You called for me?"

"She is, so -- hi, Will. Good to see you," Cindy is cheerfully interrupted. "Yeah, I've got a proposition for a lot of people."

"Captain Marvel." Mercury says, nodding in his direction.

"Nice lightning bolt."

An explosion of sound and light heralds the boom tube which deposited Avia there.

"Greetings and salutations to you all, my groovy sister from another mister, the swinging sultan of speed, and my absolutely out of sight Mr. Right!"

"Thanks, Ki-Mercury!"

With the boom tube and the depositing of Avia, Will positively glows. Both literally and metaphorically.

"Avia!"

There's a knock at the window, as Petra is outside atop an ice-ledge.

"Avia!" Cindy says cheerfully, then calls to Petra, "It's unlocked." She'd left it so to make it easier to let Cliff in.

And Chrissy will arrive in her Proper Business Attire, consisting of a nice pair of black slacks and a blue button-down top. She'd told them her name on the first mission for those that didn't know her, and she already knew a couple of the other people on the team. Like her older brother's best friend. And Petra. One of the perks of being Hal Jordon's kid.

"I bought coffee," she said as she walked into the room, holding the tray high.

The entry through the window was a lot easier this time. Cliff flew in and landed, and then transformed back into a real boy.

Cindy smiled at Chrissy. "Hello!" Then she greeted Cliff and then went to shut the window behind him.

Mo arrives a little late and still glowing in the green light of her ring.

"Sorry for my tardiness. There was an...issue...near Venus."

"No problem; we were just getting started," Cindy says.

"I'd like to thank everyone for coming, and thank you again for all your help in dealing with the problem in China recently."

Cindy reaches into her desk and pulls out a stack of newspapers. "I don't know if you noticed the reaction in the international community, but it was pretty strong. It really seems like there's a niche to be filled here for dealing with international threats of middling size -- not petty criminals, but not world-enders either -- on an ad-hoc basis."

"So, things along the level of 'Weather Wizard creating hurricanes near New York' rather than 'Invasion by Apokolips', then?"

"So part-time stuff, then? Not on a full-time, butt kicking basis like the JLA?"

"Close enough to full-time to justify residential offices and training facilities, but still not quite on the level of action and commitment of the JLA."

Avia grinned. "I could see it. People's heroes, looking out for the little guy... maybe a few charitable projects on the side..."

"I really like this idea. That middle ground is one that should be filled and if we have the good attention for it then why not?"

Petra takes in the exchanges so far and nods. "It sounds like a good cause, and we've got a solid group to work as."

"Sounds reasonable."
