Crash Landing! (open)
It's raining in San Francisco this pleasant afternoon. And while there are not many people out, there's more than enough to point up and stare as clouds suddenly part. A swirling vortex of green light appears in the sky and just ripples there for a few moments. And then suddenly...

BOOM

There's an explosion from the vortex and something gets sent rocketing into the air from it. The vortex snaps shut with another BOOM as some rather large chunk of flaming metal flies into the city and smashes into the street. About two blocks of pavement and several cars are damaged before the mass of metal stops in the street.

This could be bad...

	Cait had been outside in the rain. She loved the rain and never passed up an opportunity to be outside in it. Then came the BOOM. By Poseidon's beard why did these things always happen when she wanted peace and quiet? She went to check it out. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	The chunk of metal was just resting there in the damaged street, steaming in the rain. A few civilians have gathered and are taking pictures but others wisely keep their distance. After a few moments, the thing starts shaking violently. Muffled sounds can be heard coming from within. Whatever's in there sounds angry too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Stand back!" Cait yelled. She took a deep breath and took some of the rain and formed a wall of water between the crowd and the chunk of metal. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

There's some more shaking and suddenly the metal bursts open like a bubble. Thankfully there's no shrapnel or anything like that. "Alright Lutho-" Tim Kent flies our of the metal wreck all ready to fight but stops about a foot away from it. This sure wasn't Metropolis. "What the heck?" the young man asks no one in particular. "Superman?" he calls, glancing at all the people. Now he just looks angry and confused. Seeing Cait and her water wall, Tim scowls and settles into a defensive stance while hovering. "Don't know who you are but if you're working with Luthor, you're going down."

	"No one here is working for Luthor," she said. Tendrils of water swirled around her, waiting to be used. "I'm Aquagirl. Identify yourself," she demanded. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Fine, Brainiac or whatever the bald weirdo is calling himself now," Tim seemed annoyed at this. "Aquagirl? No way. I know Aquagirl and she isn't you," he points at Cait. "And I'm Superboy. See, the S?" he rolled his eyes, tapping the symbol on his chest. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know what you Legion of Doom losers are trying to pull," Tim growled. "And I have no clue where I am but I have to help the others stop Luthor so outta my way!" he demands. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am not part of the Legion of Doom. I am Cait Curry. Daughter of Aquaman and Mera. I am a Titan. You are in San Francisco and Luthor is not doing anything in this city or any other right now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Tim reaches back, TTK breaking some of the metal and forming a bit of a cannonball in his palm. "Curry?" he askes "Aquaman never had a daughter. Just two sons," he says. The costumed teen frowns, the Titan part sounded right. "San Francisco? I was just in Metropolis..." he trails off, looking around again. "Where's Superman?" he asks quickly, confusion starting to become more intense than the anger.

	"Aquaman does have a daughter here and had two sons. Only one is alive." She tried to keep a rein on her anger, but it was so hard lately. "This is San Francisco. Use your eyes. Does this LOOK like Metropolis to you?" "I don't know where Supes is. Probably Metropolis." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-26 09:35 pm UTC (link)
	"No way..." Tim trails off again. He reaches up and taps something in his ear. "Robin? Impulse? Lantern? Anyone? Come in!" he seems to be talking into a com device. When he just gets static, the costumed teen lowers to the ground. "What's going on here..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-04-26 09:42 pm UTC (link)
	"There's no Robin at the moment. Impulse is a Titan and my team mate. The Lanterns are part of the Young JLA." Cait slowly released the water in the wall and let it flow down the street. "I don't know. Apparently you've landed in Oz." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jon is easily reached, and recognizes the Tower number, anyway. "Hello?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Really? Huh... I guess I should have figured it would happen sooner or later. Legionnaire or a more recent flavor of other dimensional?" Sometimes, with his parents, some things can be taken in stride. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-04-28 06:39 am UTC (link)
	"More recent flavor I believe. I didn't ask to much about his family tree, but he did mention that you have the same name as his great-grandfather." Cait scratched her head. Yeah, she'd let Jon figure it out. She had enough family problems of her own to deal with. "He grabbing a shower now and it looks like he'll be settling in here. So...um..."

	Cait was checking on the pod when Jon came zooming in. She did't get how people could get used to flying, but maybe such high speeds made it more bearable. Not that she wanted to find out. "Hey," she said as she greeted him with a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
