《Aden Strong: Avatar In DC》After Crisis

(General P.O.V)
One minute everything was going well for Robin, then the next it all changed. Someone was helping the team to hack into Morrow's old computer. Although it looked like there wasn't enough time, with 3 minutes left on the clock, Robin knew it would be a close call but that the plan itself had worked.
"I need a vacation after this is over."
Black Canary said, leaning back towards her seat and rubbing her eyes. The worst part was the waiting.
"Believe me, I know exactly what you..."
The light in the Watchtower suddenly went out.
Robin and Canary scrambled out of their seats, suddenly alert. Robin's wrist computer started shining a light on their surroundings as a shiver went down his back. Was it just him or had it suddenly become chilly?
"Watchtower to team?"
He called out through the comms.
Nothing but static. No wait...there was something, something heavy and breathing.
"Close your eyes..."
A whisper came through. It was raspy and really low. Like a sharp breeze. Boy Wonder removed the comms and stared at them intently. Then he strapped it back to his ears while his heart was pumping heavily.
"I don't know who or what you are, but you are messing with the wrong people."
he warned, clicking on his wrist computer to try and understand why even the backup power system was offline.
"Close your eyes..."
The whisper came again, and with it the shiver Robin felt intensified.
"Canary..."
He turned to the League therapist only to find her seat empty. Robin swallowed and clutched birdarangs in his hands. There was something else in here with him.
"Close your eyes..."
The voice sounded very near now. like it was just behind him.
Boy Wonder had been scared for his life many times before. When you live in a city like Gotham, with people like Jonathan Crane aka The Scarecrow, you get used to fear. But this, whatever this thing was, cut deeper.
It was a visceral fear. One born out of every hair on your body standing up. The purest fear of all, the fear of the unknown. Robin shivered when he felt a cold hand clutch at his shoulder.
"Close your eyes..."
The whisper this time, sounded very close to his ears. He thought of turning around and confronting whatever this thing was. What stopped him however was his instinct.
Contrary to all his training, Robin allowed himself to go slack.
"Okay."
He whispered back, closing his eyes.
"Just please don't hurt Canary."
There wasn't an answer.
All he felt was a cold sensation across his body and then he smelled it...ocean water. Clean ocean water. The waves slowly rocked the shore and when he opened his eyes, he knew exactly where he was. There was only one place as beautiful as this. And he wasn't surprised at who was responsible for bringing him here.

"Aden...of course."
"Where am I?"
A sudden voice said. What was surprising however was that he wasn't the only one. From what Boy Wonder could see, the whole coast was populated by people who had just appeared out of nowhere. Normal everyday people. From different ethnicities as well.
The only reason that would be...was if the earth was in a danger even Aden couldn't save it from.
The crowds begun growing restless, one even pointed at him. One man blamed the freakish nature of their arrival on the League. Robin took a note at how tensions were rising and knew he had to do something to stop it.
"Wait! Look!"
Another person said, pointing to the sky. An angel was floating down. Robin shook his head to get rid of the childish crush he harbored for Kori, he knew that red hair anywhere. Seeing her brought a relieved smile to his face. Kori was alright...she wasn't hurt.
"Hello, everybody." Her voice was loud and projected nicely through the crowds.
"We are terribly sorry for pulling you away from your daily lives without warning."
She breathed in and Robin could notice the stress built up in her eyebrows.
She seemed to notice him and nod, likely letting him know to wait until she was done.
"I cannot give you a concrete reason as to why but believe me when I say that the earth was in an astronomical danger that required the use of mass teleportation to save everyone."
Robin looked around and saw that her worlds rang true. There were stations with sick people being taken care of, the teleportation having brought the machines necessary to keep them stable.
"Behind me are med-pods, drones that can heal any sickness or injury to within reason."
Robin frowned in surprise as the air behind her shimmered and green/silver, soccer ball sized metal drones appeared. They had been cloaked.
Robin's eyes rose up. Looks like someone had been prepared for an apocalyptic event.
"Please be nice each other. The drones will bring you food and any other amenities you might require." She smiled to ease them.
"Just hold on until this whole crisis is over and then we can all go back to our normal lives."
(Aden's P.O.V)
There was nothing... Just chunks of floating rock around a quarter of the moon. The natural satellite having also been affected by the massive explosion that shaved off more than half of it's total body.
My hands shook at the enormity of my actions. This is why I was always wary to use any of my States. Without full control, I was an apathetic, logical, unfeeling monster. And the Chaos State was not any better either.

It turned me into an impassioned, unpredictable and gleeful persona. Two extremes that were better in moderation. It almost seemed like the distinction between Batman and the joker. Not a comparison anyone wanted.
Those two were conditionally insane. Not medically though. Joker was termed as an individual who was Super sane while Batman's disassociation between his two personas might have counted as a mild case of split personality.
I breathed out, despite being in a space that was filled with super hot gases that were rapidly cooling. Not everything was lost. Yeah...If Michael had followed my instructions then everything was... everything was okay for now. Of course barring the fact that the earth was no more.
My divine sense alerted me to the one thing responsible for this. My face was overtaken by anger. I whirled around and stared at the huge planet like object close to the fourth terrestrial planet in the Sol System.
My eyes further widened when the machine like planet started charging it's canon. It's core igniting and the target seemingly being Mars. Multiple bio-ships soared out of the martian planet, headed towards the artificial planet. They weren't going to make it. My face hardened some more.
Warping space always felt like for an instant my whole being was connected to the fabric of existence. It almost felt like if I could push more... something would happen.
This not being a time for experiments, I appeared infront of the canon's trajectory just as it let loose another planet killing beam at our next door neighbors. I roared and increased in size, floating at a whooping 10,000 feet. The Bio-ships behind me curved to avoid the sudden appearance of a green haired giant holding a similarly huge black sword.
(General P.O.V)
The plasma beam from the canon cut through space and in no time was before the giant. Aden reached out into his inner self and pulled on his fire divinity. He underwent another instantaneous change. His green hair shifted to gold as well as the cloak of energy surrounding his body changing color.
Aden looked at the plasma beam bearing down on his position and opened his mouth. The blast hit his face and disappeared as he swallowed the supercharged attack.
The occupants inside the Bio-ships were shocked.
"Huh, you guys saw that too right?"
The first Martian who was on a gray Colored Bio-ship asked the rest through telepathy.
"He ate the attack."
Another one added in disbelief.
"I'm thinking of retiring. This just makes the decision final for me."
A third one commented. The rest of the 5 ship's occupants merely stayed silent. But not for long however.
"Oh oh wait, something else is happening! Something cool af!"
The occupant in the youngest looking Bio-ship said excitedly.
"Your mind has been corrupted by Earth's nonsensical entertainment."
An older voice chided.
At that, their already bad moods plummeted.
"Things will never be the same again..."
The younger voice said morosely.
"Focus. We are not out of danger yet. Let us make sure we don't lose our home as well."
At that, the Bio-ships adopted a wait and see approach
And just like one of them had mentioned, something could be seen brewing. Aden had consumed the energy, using his divinity to take control of the heat and electric energy within the beam. He then condensed it within himself, opened his mouth and sent a thin almost white laser attack at the canon.
The War World was rocked by tremors as a significant portion of it's central mass was blown up into chunks. It tilted heavily, but remained whole despite parts of it detaching inti space. Aden had taken extreme care not to destroy the whole planet because he wanted, no, needed to capture Grayven alive.
The giant turned to the Bio-ships and nodded. The crafts had been pushed away by the shockwave from the attack.
Aden shrunk and with red lightning coloring his legs, shot off towards the artificial planet. He was getting more and more used to the enhancement from the Speedforce. Given that some of the abilities afforded were similar to his space manipulation, phasing through the outer chassis by vibrating his molecules was as easy as breathing.
He stepped out into a long hallway stretching out on both sides, to the left and the right. The hallway was vacant but noisy with an alarm blaring out loudly. In his divine sense he could sense multiple beings put in stasis on a section below what he thought was the main deck. Separate and with more vibrant energies, were 6 individuals in another section, though two of those energies were dimmer than the rest.
Aden didn't waste time taking the correct route. Metal shredded and gave way to his form as easily as cardboard. His flight was aimed at a slightly slanted angle, so when he broke into the chamber, he did it through the floor. Shards of metal and a shockwave erupted out, sending the occupants of the chamber into a flurry of activities.

I wrote this when I was 16/17 (which was many years ago now!) on a really old PC I called Phylis.
