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...

	"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)

	"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..."

	"Hmmm, ok... I should probably talk to him face to face. I can get out there in thirty minutes. That work ok?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, sure. Works fine. See you then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Faster than a speeding bullet has its uses. He's outside Titans Tower in twenty five minutes from hanging up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	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)

	"Hi Cait, good to see you. The city is looking a lot better than last time I was here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-04-28 06:55 am UTC (link)
	She smiled more. "It's good to see you too. That was part of Ty's birthday preset to me. Along with a few other things." She looked out over the water and watched the pod make their way to the mouth of the bay. "Come on. I'll introduce you to Tim." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2010-04-28 06:58 am UTC (link)
	He eyes the pod, smiling when he sees Hope. "They're beautiful... and its quite the present. Anyway... sounds good. Lead the way. I ought to get out here more often though anyway." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2010-04-28 07:01 am UTC (link)
	"It was and they are," she beamed. "You should. We wouldn't mind more visits from our JLA brethren." Cait led him up the path to the Tower and inside. Once inside she hit the intercom. "Tim. You have a visitor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-28 07:03 am UTC (link)
	There's a delay before the intercom is answered, Tim needing a moment to figure out how to use it without breaking it. "Visitor?" he asks. "Uh...sure, c'mon up then I guess..." he trails off, not sure who on this Earth would even know he was there to visit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jon makes his way upstairs, wearing his usual costume, blue shirt with the well-known S and all. "Cait called me while you were cleaning up. Tim, right?" he asks, extending a hand. "Jon Kent." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-28 07:11 am UTC (link)
	Tim steps out of the room dressed in the jeans and a t-shirt that had been gotten for him. His eyes go wide at the sight of Jon, looking the other teen of steel over quickly. "Yeah, that's me," he replies, shaking the offered hand quickly. "I'm Tim Kent...otherwise known as Superboy but I guess that's you here..." he trails off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2010-04-28 07:15 am UTC (link)
	"Hmm, yeah, that would seem to raise some confusion. I don't imagine that's nearly the most confusing thing going on either. How did you end up here, anyway?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Tim nods and offers a helpless look. "You got no idea, Bro," he sighs. "Alright. See, I was hanging with my team in Hawaii when we got this huge call from the Justice League that the Legion of Doom was wrecking Metropolis so we all suited up and went off to save the day," he begins. "Turns out it was the whole freakin' Legion and Young Vengeance. We all joined in with the other heroes to fight the bad guys and I ended up helping my Dad and Grandpa to fight Luthor cause he had a new crazy cyborg body. And things were going alright but all of a sudden he shoots me with this weird thing that hurt a lot. I blacked out. Next thing I know, I'm in the middle of San Francisco with an Aquagirl that is completely different than the one I know."

	"Hmmm, ok... your dad and grandpa... if we're related, that definitely puts you somewhere in the future. Who is your father? And what year is it where you're at? And for what its worth, Luthor isn't a cyborg here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Tim lets out a little sigh. "Thank Rao," he mutters. "Luthor was bad enough before him and Brainiac did the creepy. The whackjob actually kidnapped me when I was a little kid. It was just messed up," he shakes his head. "It's 2015 back home...what year is it here?" he asks warily.

"And my dad is Superman...er..." he offers a sheepish smile. "Well, the new Superman. He used to be Superboy. Conner Kent. Err...Kon-El."

	first_son 2010-04-28 07:38 am UTC (link)
	He nods. "Its ok, its 2010 here. Conner doesn't have any kids. I'm Kal's son. And yeah... we have our own share of messed up, but Luthor and Brainiac are very much their own things, still." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-28 07:42 am UTC (link)
	"Great...I get sent all the way to some alternate universe and I don't even get to meet alternate me," Tim fakes a laugh. "Guess that sorta makes me your nephew from another dimension," he forces a smile. "Man...I hope everyone's okay back home without me..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2010-04-28 07:45 am UTC (link)
	"If it helps any, when this has hit family with Legion time jumps and the like, they've reappeared at moments they disappeared as often as not, so maybe no one will even know you're gone, or its temporary. Who knows, maybe next it'll be my turn to go help you with robo-Luthor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	superpowerboy 2010-04-28 07:56 am UTC (link)
	"I really hope you're right, Jon..." Tim trails off. "This whole alternate dimension thing has me a bit freaked out to tell you the truth," he says quietly. "I've never really been away from family or friends for that long before..." he trails off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
