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...

	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)

"Robin's my Bro..." Tim trails off, worried now. "Imp's not a Titan," he swallows. "Young JLA? What the heck is that?" he asks.

The young man runs a hand through his hair. "Alright...me, Dad, and Grandpa were fighting BrainiLuthor in Metro and then he shot me with this thing and it hurt like hell," he rubs a spot on his chest where there's a hole in his costume. "And then I'm stuck in that metal thing and now I'm here and what is going on?" he sounds scared now.

	There's a crackle of speed force lightning, and then Ty is on scene. Short trip, really. He maneuvers between Power Boy and Cait defensively, even if he doesn't look very imposing. "Ok, what's your story? I recognize the 'S', but that's about it. You related to Superboy?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-26 10:02 pm UTC (link)
	Tim starts to reply to Cait only to stop when he hears the familiar sound of someone running at superspeed. "Impulse?" he asks hopefully. Seeing Ty instead, the teen of steel gets annoyed. "I am Superboy!" he insists. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Ty lifts a hand, which is ringed with violet energy as he calls upon illusions, while telepathically reviewing what the guy has told Cait so far, a yellow ring appearing on his off hand while he scans the area.

An illusion of Jon Kent in costume appears.

"In this universe, this is Superboy, son of Superman. There is a major dimensional disruption here. Combining that with what you're saying, I'm guessing that Luthor, or someone, shunted you out of your own dimension. I can tell you more, maybe, but I'd need to scan your memories... if that's ok?"

Tim tenses when Ty lifts his hand, hairs on the back of his neck standing up. He jumps at the appearance of holo-Jon and stares.

"I'm Superman's son..." he trails off. "Wait...this universe? Dimensional disruption?" he takes a step towards Ty, panicking a bit. "Luthor rolled out the whole Legion. Even brought those jerks from Young Vengeance..." he pauses. "Who're you?" he asks Ty. "Scan my memories? I umm...if it'll help, alright..." he trails off warily.

With the permission, Ty starts sweeping through Tim's memories, trying to sort out something of use.

"Ok, first of all, Superboy in this universe is the son of the elder Superman and his wife. Luthor here doesn't have most of those people you're thinking of in his employ, including no Young Vengeance... yet, anyway. You're not in your own universe... something Luthor did to you sent you to a different one."

He pauses. "I'm Tyler Darnell... Cait is my girlfriend. I'm just here to help out. I'm afraid I don't know how to send you back, at least not yet." He adds, "Cait... he's one of the good guys. In his world, he really is the current Superboy."

	"We were sorting that out," she said. "It was just taking too long and I wouldn't be able to stop him if he decided to run amok. He wasn't believing me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-27 02:16 pm UTC (link)
	Tim listens to what Tyler tells him, expression sinking and color draining from his face. When Tyler mentions not being able to send him back, Tim just falls to his knees looking pretty devastated. "So I'm stuck here?" he asks quietly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2010-04-27 02:57 pm UTC (link)
	Ty nods to Cait first. "Which is why I came, its ok now." he replies, before looking back to Tim. "For now, I'm afraid so. I'll work on that for you, but in the meanwhile, we can probably put you up at Titans Tower, at least for a bit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-27 08:14 pm UTC (link)
	Tim looks up at Ty hopefully. "You might be able to send me back?" he asks. "Tower? I thought Ravager blew tha-...oh yeah, wrong dimension," he says. With a sigh, Tim floats to his feet. "Thanks...I'll follow you guys..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, the Tower. It's still standing and currently home. Let's go. I need to check on the pod anyway." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
