With some assistance from T.H.U.N.D.E.R., the team managed to convince the Thai government to allow them to follow the August General's lead to Proteus' location. The area itself was the suspected headquarters of a Malay terrorist group, so the JLI was advised to be on the lookout, as it was suspected Proteus may be working with the organization.

"Ok, Cait... I know I'm just supposed to be doing hair and dresses and things, but I had some great ideas to help give your wedding a little bit of theme. I was pondering talking to your dad about them so we could coordinate. Since he learned all of the lyrics last time I talked to him, I was thinking that maybe, instead of 'here comes the bride', everyone could do a big presentation of 'Under the Sea' for you coming down the aisle. I could probably even teach it to some harbor seals." Pippi explains, amidst picking out some swatches for possible bridesmaid colors.

Steven has been counting the days. The paperwork is filed, listing himself as the primary owner of Speedforce Productions, Ltd., with Annie, Jai, Iris, Tess and Cindy as partners. They have the space rented for each of the shoots - this one on a private beach. Everyone among the superheroine crowd that was willing to sign an NDA was invited with an RSVP request so they knew how many swimsuits to design.

Pippi has her own space to handle hair, wardrobe and makeup for the models, with Harry along to help coordinate getting everyone in to see her as adjustments were needed. Jai has the task of helping with setup, extra cameras, following Jo Kent around to shoot interviews while Steven handles the main coordination, and whatever else needs gophering. Jo is their reporter, there to conduct interviews with the models about their neighborhoods, causes important to them, and whatever else they want to discuss to help introduce themselves to the greater universe who often doesn't get to interact with super heroes.

Aside from the main area of beach, there,s a large bin full of beach balls. Tons and tons of beach balls, all of them two or three-colored in the colors of the various super heroines who confirmed they'd be here.

"Alright, when people are ready... I know we had one organizational meeting. But I thought I'd use this opportunity to thank everyone for coming. We're going to do the biggest and most complicated shoot first, and start working out details of the others. We have tentative volunteers, but some of the schedules are still open, and we're very open to shooting in pairs.

Other than the shoot here, consider this a day on the beach, courtesy of Speedforce Productions. After the shoot, we'll bring down food and drinks... there's plenty of water over by Pippi's station in the meanwhile."

It had been a long fight with the Cadre, but in the end the Justice League International had won. The Cadre members were in jail and life went on. Dex grabbed a beer and kicked back on the couch in front of the tv.

Dex stormed around the JLI headquarters using his ring to lift furniture and toss it out of the way. Miss Fluff was missing and Dex was /worried/. She never just disappeared. She was either sleeping on his bed or she followed him around. Now she was nowhere to be seen and he hoped something didn't happen to her.

In a step up from nagging state legislatures, Uncle Jed was going to testify before a U.S. Senate committee. This had become a Walker family trip. Walker family trips now included the Torres family. As much as he loved Mom and Grandma, it was a relief to get a bit of breathing space again, with the perfectly reasonable explanation of dinner with a fellow makeup artist. He'd talked to Pippi one or two times since they'd met in passing. The last had been right after his breakup, and when he'd mentioned he'd be in town, she seemed game for dinner. So here they were, in a nice restaurant,as he smiled appreciatively at Zoe for coming along, in the outfit he'd suggested. "I hear the food here is great. And it'll be a while without Grandma asking us if we've met any nice guys."

Cindy was proud of the festivities she'd set up.

The game was projected onto one wall of the huge atrium the party was taking place in, with plenty of comfy seats facing it. It was only polite, after all.

More important was the food. Tables of chips, veggies, wings (with three different types of dressing), muffelettas (it's a New Orleans occasion this year. Thematic), and chili rolls. Cindy was especially proud of the chili rolls; there was one row marked 'Regular' and one row marked 'Queen' The latter row had a stack of pens and informed-consent waivers in front of it.

There was also a small end table full of party favors for everyone. In celebration of commerce, they were $10 gift cards, each for somewhere she thought fitting for the person the card was marked for.

Cindy likes parties.

This is one of those problems when part of your rogue's gallery includes Atlantean villains. The transport is wrecked, the water isn't safe - but there's no threat as long as the girls stay on the island til reinforcements arrive. Unfortunately, that could be a while.

Pippi was wet and bedraggled when she managed to crawl up on shore. She's already working to get herself back into fashionable order.

"Ok, Cait." She says, very seriously. "We're stuck on an island, maybe for a long time. So there's some very important considerations we need to figure out. So, first things... I'm Maryanne, you're Ginger."

bobblehead:

The nice guy with W.E. was nice enough to give Pippi an address. Her mom's handler arranged for a car in which she could carry everything she'd need - which is significant. According to her source, there's a lot to do.

Pippi, with a backpack on her back, and a beauty case in hand, moves up to knock on Maria's door.

bobblehead:

The team has had a chance to settle into their new headquarters. Its taken some work, but the essentials are there. And once that was done, Pippi set right to work on the non-essential, but important business of making sure the place was stocked with good shampoo, conditioner, general health care products, and decorative items like carpeting, drapes and the rest. Despite her tendencies, she actually knows color and good taste when it comes to this sort of thing - the place looks comfortable, and like a semi-professional interior decorator got a hold of it.

But something has been missing.

Whether or not that something is a new friend for Dex, he's getting one anyway. At one point when he returns home, this (http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mau0qfm1IK1r33eyzo5_r2_250.gif) is waiting for him. Well, this, wearing a green ribbon around her neck, and a tag reading 'Miss Fluff', with her address noted on the back of the green lantern symbol shaped tag.

Maria had tricked him into karaoke and even gotten him to sing. And there was no way she wouldn't have known he'd get his revenge on her for that stunt one day. Just...perhaps not in this manner.

He picks up his phone and dials a number that had been given to him by a certain bubbly blonde a few weeks before. Part one, commence.

"Hi, am I speaking to Pippi Peppers?"

Gotham wasn't quite New York or Paris, but its yearly high fashion show was one of the rising stars of the industry, recent and small enough that a lot of independent designers were there, big enough to start getting some of the names. Definitely big enough to draw Pippi's attention. She had her mom's handler arrange everything for her for all the events, her hotel, transport while there and so on, along with a chance to survey the town a little. She's heard all sorts of interesting things about the city - but mostly that no one there likes clowns. The circus even has to not use its clowns when they go through... she figures that's probably why everyone is so gloomy there.

Well, it was strange to be standing there. It was so very muggy there, a far cry from Kiev even in the summer. The heat was oppressive, especially with Oksanas thick uniform (her military uniform, *not* her hero uniform) as she walked into the large building known as the Hall of justice. She knew that she had been accepted, but nothing much beyond that. So she had a bag (which had two spares of her actual costume) and an older uniform of her military days, complete with her standard red beret denoting her Ukranian special forces.

Once she is within the building and passes the necessary security precautions, she's taken...somewhere. She has no idea of the layout of the building.

"Hello?" Oksana called out into the building. This was where she was to meet her perspective teammates, yes?

dc_thunder:

With Pippi's amazing luck, and Dex's Green Lantern handy-ness, it was not difficult for the heroes to mop up the remains of Kobra.  While the Serpent Supreme himself got away, they'd rounded up a great deal of the soldiers and scientists of the organization and seized the remarkable technology that had gone into the space station, including its teleport tech and its stealth technology.

All in all, Director William Vance thought, not a bad day's work.  Which was why he'd asked the heroes to stick around, waiting in one of the conference rooms in THUNDER's DC office.

"Firstly," he said, as he entered, "let me thank-you all for waiting.  I'm sure you've got... secret identity things to do.  Whatever it is you types do when you're not saving this world.  I'm Director Vance, of THUNDER, The Higher United Nations Defense Enforcement Reserves.  We were formed to help pick up some of the slack left behind when the Dome and later the old Justice League International dissolved, in providing global coordination to super-heroes and otherwise facilitating handling various international terrorist organizations such as Kobra or the 1000."

He went on.  "You people did good work out there today.  And my superiors have authorized me to offer to continue to let you do good work.  THUNDER would like to be in the League business."

dc_kobra:

All across the country, members of the Cult of Kobra were striking.  Technology thefts had already been on the up, as well as weapons thefts from various government depots.  The serpents struck without mercy, taking what they needed, and fleeing just as quickly.  Both Barr brothers had been dead for years, but the organization had fallen into other hands.  It was speculated that the long term goal was the selection of a new Kobra...  but in the meantime, under the guidance of someone called the Serpent Supreme, their short term goals of terror, in preparation for the coming Kali Yuga, remained unchanged.

And soon... the world would know even greater terror that it had before.

Cait sighed and followed Pippi into yet another store. Silently she wondered how many stores they were going to go into. Cait had a momentary lapse in sanity when she agreed to go shopping with Pippi and didn't know it was going to be an all day thing. She had honestly thought it was going to take an hour or two, not six...going on seven.

She opened her water bottle and took a long drink.

dc_holiday:

All Hallow's Eve, or Halloween as it has been come to be called, is a popular holiday with children and adults alike. It is a holiday that had its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain or Summer's End. Samhain celebrated the end of the "lighter half" of the year and the beginning of the "darker half".

On this evening the barriers between this world and the Otherworld were believed to be thin and the spirits, good and bad, of the dead could pass through. The spirits of the family's ancestors were welcomed in while evil and bad spirits were warded off by the wearing of masks and costumes. The costumes and masks disguised one as a harmful spirit and avoided harm from others.

It was also a harvest celebration and time to take stock of food stores for the winter. Livestock were slaughtered and the meat prepared for storage. It was the final harvest of the year and the crops were then stored for the winter. Celebrations included bonfires and tales of the family's ancestors.

It was a celebration of the dead and of the harvest.

Today we dress up in scary and not so scary costumes and masks and go door to door for candy or attend costume parties. It is a night for revelry, pranks and fun.

dc_kobra:

It was some charity function or other, but what it had been for, held in the New York Museum of Natural History, didn't much matter.  What did matter was that Kobra had crashed the party.  The guests were quickly taken hostage, their money seized.  A few of the security guards had already been killed.

The money was, of course, nice, but more importantly, was the message.  Colonel Kill had been placed in charge of this mission, personally entrusted with it by the Serpent Supreme himself.  Each step brought them closer to resurrecting their glorious leader, the naga-naga.

He waved his gun in the direction of the hostages.  "You all have a glorious part to play," he said.  "Your deaths will help bring forth the Kali-Yuga, the age of change and judgement!  The blood you spill today will be envied by those who perish after you!"

He didn't believe a word of it, of course.  He was a mercenary, nothing more.  But Kobra paid well, and the Supreme Serpent did believe in it.  So when he was working for them, so did he.

He gestured toward some of the Kobra troopers he had brought with him.

"Kill them all.  Sacrifice them to the great Kali!"

Pippi may have joined the East team to stick with Mitzi, but she still visits when she can. After all, Iris remains her new bestest friend, and she has to visit King Triton now and then. Besides, much as she adores Dinah and Mitzi (occasionally to Dinah's chagrin), Cait is a <i>real</i> princess, so Pippi has to visit to work on quietly picking up princess pointers, just in case she stumbles into a Disney plotline.

She bounces in through the door, waving a credit card. "Alright, shopping time!"

iwantapony:

Buffy really missed her friends Pippi and Mitzi. Mandy and the others had told her that those mean and unfashionable Teen Titans were holding them hostage than that’s why they couldn’t talk to them anymore. They wouldn’t even let Buffy send Mitzi money when her house burned down and it was only a hundred thousand dollars.

Buffy loved her friends so she couldn’t take it anymore. Using one of her black cards to bought plane tickets to New York and some essential supplies plus some gifts for her friends.

Buffy showed up at the front door of Titans East HQ wearing top of the line and very fashionable pink cameo plus she made her hair really cute to because that was really important. She then rang the doorbell because no one would ever expect anyone to sneak in that way and it wasn’t like they could see her since she was wearing cameo.

Lily was in the training room at Titan's East Tower. Other people found different ways to unwind, but this was what she did. There was something about workouts that soothed her. She chalked it up to having something to do with her training on Temyscira.

Sometimes, patrols can be stressful. And while she'd normally go home and take a hot bath and curl up with some chocolate, Lily didn't feel like doing that tonight. Which was why she was currently in the training room, going to town on the simulator. She dodged lasers and punched robots.

Lily had barely broken a sweat when she was done. She took a long sip from her water bottle, before going off to shower. When she was done, Lily made her way into the kitchen, deciding to make herself a snack. She was feeling a lot less on edge, and late night snacks were a great ending to the day.

New York City was seeing a beautiful spring day. The temperature was sixty degrees, the sun was out and New Yorkers were enjoying the perfect spring day. The grass in Central Park was green and the trees had buds on them.

Without warning the temperature dropped to a balmy thirty degrees and snow started falling all around the city. Strands of Christmas lights appeared on trees and Christmas music started blaring from speakers around the city. The clothes of the residents of the city, including the superhero population, turned into bikinis and surf shorts.

The snow continued to fall and eventually the city was coated in white. Ice formed in front of Rockefeller Center and the skating rink was back. Jingle bells could be heard and eventually Santa Claus, wearing a Nixon mask, appeared and he was flanked by elves wearing masks of presidents. All of the elves carried strings of beads and wore smiles on their faces.

It was a chaotic scene.

Bugsy and Boo popped into the 3rd Dimension with a fanfare of trumpets followed by confetti and firecrackers. They arrived in an empty room.

Refurbishment on the Tower in New York harbor had started almost immediately after they'd decided to put together a second Titans team.  Between Dinah and Lily, more than enough favors existed for the work to be done in almost no time at all, though Dinah would still need to spend a lot of time updating the security and other computer systems.  On top of the logistics of running the team itself.  Was this how Cait or Iris has felt?  Having the burden of leadership put upon  her like this?  But no one else wanted the job, and well, someone had to do it, so someone had to step up.  It might as well be her.

"Okay," she said, once she had the ones who were coming in the Tower's meeting room.  "So this is our HQ.  We can work on picking out rooms after this meeting.  You're all welcome to live here, of course, though you're not required to.  Teleporter is down the hall, do not use it for pizza deliveries.  Emergency codes one, two, and three are the west coast tower, the YJLA HQ, and the JSA brownstone, respectively.  Emergency code four will dump the platform's contents into the still zone.  It's our all purpose "try and get rid of something" plan.

"If you're going to be bringing people back here, please let the rest of us know.  And try not to bring anyone back for a booty call.  If you do plan on having sex in the Tower, do in in your own rooms and not in any of the public areas.  Also please remember that Riley and I still have secret identities, and we'd like to keep it that way.

"I'm keeping the Bug stored here in the hangar, though we also have a T-Jet, which you may be more comfortable with.  We'll be getting you all up to speed flying it as soon as possible.  We've also got a couple of short range single-person vehicles, and what amounts to a "Titans Van" if we ever really need it.

"Your communicators are now set to operate on our own frequency, though they can be set to pick up other team bands, depending on need.

"Any questions so far?"

The city of Star City looked deserted. The citizens had either fled or had been turned into black lanterns. At the heart of the city was the entity known as Nekron. Nekron used the city as his base as his black lanterns ravaged the Earth.

The black lanterns increased their numbers each day and the power levels of the black lantern battery increased with each person that died.

Soon Nekron would have enough power to obliterate all life on this planet.

Pippi did her best to heal the people she could. As usual, she could speed things a long a little, make pain go away, but it was hard again, not like things back at the tower.

It wasn't fair - if hurting people was easy, fixing them should be easier, not the other way around.

She plays with her new Rottweiler for a little bit, letting him keep the goalie mask on top of his head. He seems to like it. It also keeps her out of the way, and gives her something to hug. She always heard that petting a kitty or puppy would make things better - but Cait was still dead, and she'd still hurt all those people. They were dead, and trying to kill her - and hugs and healing didn't fix them, no matter how hard she tried or how much she wanted them to.

Finally, once she's been out of the way for long enough, she tells the Rottweiler to keep an eye on her stuff, then she grabs Dingo's helmet, and goes to try and find Dinah.

It started as any other morning in San Francisco. The sun came up in the East and people climbed from the beds to start their day.

The Titans in Titans Tower were starting their day. Their new sister team from the East were visiting for a meeting to discuss the current situation. While they were inside making plans, the waters of the Pacific started to churn. Waves kicked up and dark clouds blocked out the light of the sun.

The water quickly pulled back from the shore and things were calm for the briefest of moments. Then a huge tsunami crashed ashore and water flooded the lower half of the city.

daughteroftroy:

"Hey Adam...wanna go out on a patrol together? It'll be fun."

Boy, was Lily really starting to regret those words right now.

A little nightly patrol on New York City, looking to maybe stop some muggers had take a drastic turn when Lily and Adam happened upon a little villain group called the Pack pulling a heist on a local LuthorCorp Facility.

A few muggers they could have handled? A group of villains with high-tech armor? They were in a little bit over their heads.

Troia went slamming into a wall of crates, and they fell down around her. She climbed out of them, throwing on of them at Coyote, who had sent her into that wall of crates.

bwa_ha_ha:

Any number of things had been going down recently, but the rash of various thefts from Queen, Wayne, Luthor, and Kord Industries' west coast branches (the last one made it personal), also had to be dealt with.  Dinah had done some investigating on her own, the clues being relatively simple things, since the robberies themselves had largely been smash and grabs and the like.

What had been surprising were the culprits involved: the Pack.  The mercenary team was relatively well known within certain circles, operating out of Zandia with impunity from the laws.  This seemed a bit below their usual standard, but it probably meant someone even higher up on the food chain was working an angle.

And the next theft, based on what she had pieced together about just what had been stolen, was going to be in Gotham, at one of the Wayne Industries warehouses.  Even with the Scarab, she knew she couldn't take them all on on her own.  She needed the Titans.  But with the team decimated of late and time being of the essence, she'd only been able to get Pippi, Mitzi, and Ash to come with her.

Fortunately, they'd been able to pick Riley up along the way.

She brought the Bug into hover mode, closing the faceplate on her armor.  "Okay, I briefed you all on these guys on the way over.  They're very nasty and they won't hesitate to kill you if you get the chance.  No fancy heroics.  We play this like a team."

Iris couldn't stay at her house for another moment. There was just so much crying. Between her parents, her Uncle Bart, Uncle Barry and Aunt Iris, and Aunt Joan and Uncle Jay, there was just too much sadness for one house.

She had to get away. Had to get out.

So Iris did what she did best. She ran. She ran as hard and fast as she could, trying her best to get everything out of her head.

First Cait died. Then Cerdian. Now Jai. Her twin brother. Murdered by some psychopath, and Jai hadn't even done anything wrong. Why did these things keep happening? Why did they happen to the people that she loved the most?

Iris ran, tears streaming down her face, stinging as she continued to run. Continued to try and get all the pain out of her. But no matter how fast she ran, it didn't work. The pain didn't go away no matter how hard she tried.

Eventually, she ran out of steam. She wasn't sure where she was, but she passed out, dizzy from working herself so hard.

She didn't care where she was. And right now, she didn't care if she never woke up again.

A lot of the Titans have had a tough time lately. There's also the concern that there's all the holiday parties, get-togethers, and general gatherings that might involve mistletoe coming up - which means her new best friends need to be ready.

Any of the Titans girls who have spent any real time around the Tower, most notably and certainly, Dinah, Mitzy and Iris, receive their Christmas present early - they're told to meet in the lobby, dressed comfortably and ready to go out. There's a surprise waiting for them.

Mickey had roped off the living room in the JSA Brownstone for the afternoon. She had spent the entire morning getting the food ready and setting up. She had sent out invites to the JLA, Titans (both East and West Coast), Shadowpact, Outsiders, Birds of Prey, and of course, the JSA girls. She had also invited Cindy in case she wanted to come, and Angie, as she was basically a JSA brat herself. Mikey had built her a projection bot, and security bot that would alert her if any of the boys thought to try and see what the girls were up to.

Mickey finished setting up the projector. She had pictures of all the guys from the various teams that she had managed to get to her hands on. She made sure that there would be enough food and drinks for everyone, and waited for people to start arriving.

With all that had been happening Cait had very little time to go see and play with Hope and her pod. As soon as she could move reasonably well and wasn't in too much pain, Cait made her way down to the water. It was a cool day in San Francisco, too cold to go swimming, but Cait wasn't human and the temperature didn't bother her as it did humans. Not to mention the easiest way for her to stay hydrated was to go swimming in the ocean.

Cait dived into the water and called out to Hope and her pod.

Within a short time they came into the bay and Cait greeted them with a big smile. A few of them were happy enough to see her again that they started jumping out of the water and doing tricks.

Cait gave Hope a hug and watched the others play.

young_swimmer:

They had to spend a few days in Poseidonis before coming back to Titans' Tower due to Cait's wounds, but eventually she was well enough to make the trip. The physicians wanted her to wait longer, but Arthur needed to get back here and Cait didn't want to leave him around Ty for any longer than necessary. To be honest, she was surprised San Francisco was still standing after Arthur had already been there for a few days.

Once they reached Metropolis they called the Tower and Cait asked Ty to come and get them. Cait was in bad enough shape with two healing stab wounds, she didn't want to add any additional misery by flying.

Cait smiled after they appeared in the Tower. Teleporting wasn't her favorite method of travel, but it was still better than flying. The important thing was that she was home. Nothing felt better than coming home.

"Hello?" she called out.

Since the calendar had turned to the month of September, Iris had been counting down the days until their birthday. She'd been planning the party since back in June. Jai normally had no problem letting her handle the party planning itself.

She had invited all of the Titans, including Pipi and Mitzi, of course. And Jon, Corinna, Traya, Cindy, Jerry, Keith, Cerdian, and Wendi, too. And Riley, because if she didn't invite him, he'd probably tag along with Dinah anyway. She also told Cait that she could bring her mom along, if she wanted to get out of the Tower, and that her parents probably wouldn't mind the company at all. Jai probably invited some people too, though the guest list was pretty much the same between the two of them.

Everything was all set up, and Iris placed the wrapped package that had Jai's gift on the table where the other gifts would go. Grinning from ear to ear, she waited for everyone to arrive.

The Nemean Lion once terrorized the countryside outside of Nemea devouring anyone that close to his lair. His golden fur was impervious to attack and its claws were sharper than mortal swords and could cut through any armor. It was slain by Hercules on his first labor.

The citizens of San Jose California were going about their daily lives not aware of the danger that awaited them. The Nemean Lion, a creature of myth and ferocity, ran through the streets of downtown San Jose. He roared and swiped at anyone who came close to him.

The weather was absolutely perfect in San Francisco and it was perfect for holding a cookout.

Tables had been placed outside and the large grill fired up to get nice and hot. Burgers, hot dogs, sausage, ribs, corn on the cob, pasta salad, salad and fruit salad were just some of the food available to eat. Soda, water, fruit juice and other beverages were on ice.

The Titans worked as a team and as a family to prepare the food. When they were ready, they carried it all outside and started their celebration.

It was a day of rest and relaxations for those who put their lives on the line for others.

Iris made her way back to Keystone from Titans Tower. She'd had fun with just the Titans girls and Pippi and Mizti. While she wasn't too sure about Mitzi just yet, Iris thought that Pippi was a good person, and once she'd spent some time with her and the rest of the Titans, she'd stop hanging out with the Raiderettes and robbing shopping malls. Maybe Mitzi would, too.

Iris was on her way home, running down Keystone's main street, when she noticed something...well, downright odd.

After all, it wasn't every day that you saw a stampede of giant wooly rhinos in a city where there wasn't much of a rhino population to begin with. Iris served to avoid being trampled.

People were running in every direction to avoid being trampled to death.

Iris pulled out her comm. She was going to need some backup. Again.

"Titans? It's Impulse. I've got a problem...."

They went into a situation looking to fight and they came back with two additional members to their strange family. Pippi and Mitzi had come back with the Titans after the fight. Now it was just a matter of getting them to settle in. Mitzi got the spare room next to Cait's and Pippi was down the hall next to Iris.

Cait stretched out on the couch in the rec room and put the Princess Bride into the DVD player. Maybe they will wander by and watch a movie.

Anyone who kept a close watch on anything closer to the Earth than the moon probably took notice as two space-ships suddenly arrived in orbit, one towing the other.
