บท 21: Chapter 21 Visit To New York City

Eleven figures sat down in a large yet slightly cramped carriage. All of them in the mid to late teens with varying expressions on their faces.

"Robin- I mean Dick, are you sure that Rider escaped to New York City? I mean he hasn't been spotted in Gotham in a few weeks now. What makes you think that he came here, instead of another city, or country even?".

Kid Flash, or Wally West as his friends knew him by, looked at the boy wonder as the shorter teen beside him who was fiddling on his holographic computer on his wrist. His gaze firmly planted on the wrist mounted computer and was typing more rapidly with one hand than most people do with two.

Robin glanced at his best friend dressed in his normal, casual attire but didn't make any outward changes to his demeanor.

"The truck that Rider used to move the cash hadn't been used for a while after Rider took it away so I assumed it was dumped somewhere. However, just a little under three weeks ago, the same truck was recorded leaving Gotham City traveling towards New York. It might just be a coincidence, but its the best lead we have in tracking down Rider".

Robin angled his sunglasses up slightly trying to appear cool in the other members of the Teams eyes, however his shoulders slumped slightly when he saw that the female constituent of the Team had their eyes glued to the windows, or more specifically, the buildings outside the window.

Miss Martian had her cheeks pressed up against the window, and pointed at the various shops and buildings they passed with a tone of excitement present in her voice.

"Barbara, look, look! What's that? And that over there? Can you eat it? Can we go get some?".

Supergirl and Aquagirl also looked outside the window with an equal amount of vigor and curiosity, however they were far more restrained with their voices when in comparison with M'gann.

The pair had been told of the many things on Earth that they did not have on Atlantis or Krypton, but had been informed by Aqualad and Superman of the things that their country or home world did, or did not have.

Wondergirl, the niece and protégé of Wonder Woman, sighed and gave Artemis a helpless look as the other two new additions to the Team looked out at the city that never sleeps with a wonderous and childlike awe.

In this world, Supergirl was the older cousin of Superman, although this relationship was unknown to many people outside of the Justice League, and arrived on Earth after close to three decades of drifting through the Phantom Zone, having not aged a day since she left Krypton all those years ago. She was sixteen when she left her home planet and was tasked with looking after he younger cousin, Kal-El.

After arriving on Earth, she was found by Superman, and taken in by her older/younger cousin, and became his adopted daughter in the eyes of the public.

"Look Kara! The Empire State Building! Maybe we can have a race from there to the Statue of Liberty!".

The beautiful chestnut blonde haired, sky colored eyed Kryptonian was nudged by another beautiful platinum blonde haired girl, one with eyes as blue as the ocean and a voice that could calm down a Great White Shark.

Aquagirl in this world was not the same as the one that Gray was familiar with. The one that used to be associated with the Team was Tula, the crush of Aqualad and ex-boyfriend of Garth, or as he was better known as, Tempest.

In this world, Aquagirl, or Mareena, is the daughter of Aquaman and Mera, the King and Queen of Atlantis. She possesses all the same powers as her mother and father, and if it wasn't for her wish to be a member of the Team rather than the future heir to the throne of Atlantis, she would be a princess.

"Kara, Mareena! Calm down a little bit! Once we get off the train we'll split into groups and search the city. If you want, you can use that time to look around. But remember the reason why we are here in the first place".

A dark haired girl with piercing blue eyes reprimanded her two best friends. She appeared a lot more mature for her age and had a figure that didn't belong to a sixteen year old.

This was Cassie Sandsmark, or Wondergirl as she was known to the public. She was the granddaughter of Zeus and the niece of Wonder Woman. Although her powers were limited because of her age and experience, she would still grow up to be a powerful hero, maybe at the same level as Wonder Woman.

These were the three new additions to the Team after Rider wiped the floor with them at the airport outside of Gotham City. Their strength was equal to that of Superboy's and were heavy hitters just like their mentors.

They were also absolutely gorgeous, a similar trend of the female members of the Team.

Artemis' cool still being refined beauty, Batgirl's contrasting "hot" look and aloof personality, Miss Martians warm and gentle aura, Zatanna's mysterious yet approachable smile, Supergirl's friendly and sunny charisma, Aquagirl's innocent and charming nature, Wondergirl's strong, yet soft disposition.

Needless to say, the four male members of the Team were not complaining.

Robin sent a subtle glance to Kid Flash and Aqualad, not needing words to communicate his intent.

They may just be in their teens after all, but boys were still boys.

Aqualad nodded at Robin's meaning, and looked at the rest of the group.

"When we arrive in New York, I think we should split up to cover more ground. There's eleven of us, so four teams of two and one team of three should be good. If we find Rider, trail him and try to find where he is hiding out. Do not engage, we don't know if he's laid out traps in his hideout and we should scope out the place before we fight it out".

All ten other members of the Team nodded, even Superboy who was reading a book much to the surprise of the others, looked up and nodded at Kalur's words.

"This is a higher populated area so we have to be careful not to damage out surroundings, as well as the inhabitants of New York. The civilians take top priority, even over the capture of Rider".

The nodded once more.

"In order to make the groups more even, those with good tracking abilities will be placed with heavy hitters in order to give the rest of us enough time to make it to where you are located, just in case of a fight".

Aqualad looked at Superboy and Miss Martian.

"Conner and M'gann, you two take the Queens. Report back in three hours at Central Park if you've found anything".

He moved his gaze towards Kid Flash and Artemis.

"Wally. You and Artemis will take the Bronx. Just like Conner and M'gann, come to Central Park after three hours with any information you've gathered".

He looked at Robin who was slightly moving his head towards Zatanna and Cassie, but couldn't tell exactly which one he was talking about.

"Dick, you and Zatanna will take Staten Island. I'm sure that with your investigative skills and Zatanna's ability to be.... persuasive you'll find something out".

The dark-skinned Atalantean felt a little bad as Batman's protégé slumped forward slightly. It seems he wanted to be with Cassie rather than Zatanna.

"I'll go with Barbara and investigate Brooklyn. If that's alright with you Batgirl?".

The red headed member of the Bat Family nodded before all the assigned teams looked at Supergirl, Aquagirl and Wondergirl who looked at each other in response.

Cassie smiled at the two blondes and gave Aqualad a grateful nod in return.

"We'll take the Manhattan area. If we find anything, well call you guys immediately".

The train that took them from Gotham to New York suddenly came to a stop as the entered Grand Central Station. Sounds of trains tooting and conductors blowing their whistles as they exited the train.

Miss Martians telepathic link broke as the five groups grew further and further apart, the group of teens heading to five different places in New York, unbeknownst to them that they would all meet up in just two hours instead of the normal three.

And it wasn't because they found Rider.


บท 22: Chapter 22 Superboy and Miss Martian

Conner and M'gann left Grand Central Station and took another train to get to Queens. Aqualad assigned the pair based on two main deciding factors.

One, the two were interested in one another, and this would help both of them get closer without any interference from any other member of the Team.

And two, if Robin, Kid Flash or Aqualad try to make a move on M'gann, Superboy would probably do his best to try and kill that person.

The pair stood side-by-side as they walked along the streets of the city that never sleeps. It was around six o'clock in the afternoon in the middle of summer. The roads were warm and a hot breeze of wind brushed by them every once in a while, and was starting to make Miss Martian slightly uncomfortable.

"Are you okay M'gann? We can go somewhere inside if you want?".

The pale skinned disguise of the White Martian shook its head slightly before giving the clone of Superman a gentle smile.

"No that's alright Conner. It's fire that I'm uncomfortable with. This heat is nothing when compared to the stuff back home".

Despite appearing weakened by the heat, she still had her bubbly personality and wasn't fazed by the warm summer sun. She was uncomfortable by all the stares Conner was getting, by members of the opposite sex.

Conner Kent was a near perfect male specimen. He had a broad, tall physique and his muscles couldn't be hidden by the tight clothing he was wearing. It only emphasized the fact. If it wasn't for M'gann giving glares to the girls that tried to come up to the pair, he might've been swarmed by pretty girls hoping to get his number.

"Just try and take it easy M'gann. Even if we find Rider, we'll only try and tail him. Kaldur said not to engage. Although if he does try something....".

The half-Kryptonian punched one fist into an open hand at the thought of fighting the green haired golden eyed Pseudo-Servant. Being taught how to fight and where his weaknesses were, was a shame in the mind of Superboy. And he wanted to fight Rider more than anyone else on the rest of the Team.

His thoughts became slightly distracted as M'gann gave him a radiant smile.

"Let's just enjoy ourselves Conner! It's not everyday we get to explore a city for a mission!".

The Martian unconsciously grabbed the hand of Superboy, and dragged him towards a nearby park with loud music coming from it. To M'gann, who was talking psychically with the other girls on the train about trying to get close to Conner, it was great to be able to go to a place were they would make lasting memories.

Barbara and Cassie were the most mature of the female members of the Team. Artemis, although also similarly mature, wasn't as versed as the Batgirl and Wondergirl when it came to flirting with the members of the opposite sex.

"Just remember to not do anything stupid! Don't try and impress him and end up making a fool of yourself. If Conner really does like you than he'll be the one doing that. You just have to act interested".

M'gann memorized the words that Wondergirl gave her and led Superboy towards the park, a flyer for a festival was posted on a nearby lamppost, and the pair happily chatted as they entered the park, and loud music came from the center stage as stalls selling various goods and services for countless games flooded their vision.

Aqualad had received funds from Batman and the rest of the Justice League in their future exploits. It was more than enough for the eleven of them to spend, even if they did use it wastefully.

"Let's try that out Conner!".

Miss Martian pointed to a hammer and a bell at the top of a ten meter post and gestured for Superboy to give the game a go.

The half-Kryptonian smiled at the Martian and wielded the hammer with enough force to send the small projectile flying upwards towards the bell. The force the clone generated was enough to send bell ringing loudly enough for a few people to turn around and see where the loud sound came from, several teenagers gesturing at the young handsome man, asking if they've seen him around before.

A pretty looking girl with long blonde hair walked up to Conner and smiled at him, her age matching his own from a physical standpoint.

"Hey, haven't seen you here around before. Are you new in Queens?".

Conner and M'gann looked at the newcomer who was obviously interested in the former, causing the latter to frown as she held the large bear Conner won from this stall.

She wrapped her hand around Superboy's once more and glared at the pretty blonde in front of her.

"We, are not from around here. Just visiting New York for the day".

The girl obviously recognized the tone at which M'gann was speaking to her, but just swept her hair past her ear and looked at the young Kryptonian with an unhidden desire in her eyes.

"Me and my friends were just about to go to a party nearby. If you two want to come, than your more than welcome to.... that is.... if your not scared".

Conner sent a glance to M'gann who had an angry look on her face and tried to lower the tension in the air.

"This party, it will have a lot of different people yes? From all across New York?".

The pretty blonde nodded and smiled gently at Conner, who was unaware of the intent behind her gaze.

"Yeah, everyone will be there. Who knows, maybe you'll meet someone you're looking for?".

The blonde brought Superboy and Miss Martian over to her own group of friends who were waiting just outside the park for her. The girls all looked at Conner with a subtle appreciation in their eyes, and all the guys looked at M'gann with raised eyebrows and not so subtle glances.

The pretty blonde winked at Superboy, much to the ire of Miss Martian.

"This'll be the biggest party of your life. Anyone whose anyone is going to be there. And its at some rich guys penthouse in the middle of Manhattan. You two can come, but you can't let anyone else come, alright?".

The pair nodded.

The distance between them and their target slowly shortened.
