Iron Boy : New Legacy

So after Thaddeus Thawne was buried, Cassandra Cain flaked out. I knew she wasn't leader material. So I have to put the team back together.

Vella I got in good her powers , and GL ring will be as good an asset as her brain. Unfortunately she got her meat head boy friend, the Red Hood, the guy's borderline psychotic. And I heard some stories of him becoming a drug dealer for a while.

Worse him being around pisses off the sponsor lady. Yeah Bulma Briefs I know Why Don't I pay for the new team? Well Tony Stark AKA Iron Man Is now wanted on trumped up charges, By the new Director of the Initiative Norman Osborn AKA The Green Goblin.

So yeah with out my "Big Brother's " funds I have to go to Vella and Vincent's mother. She gave us a surprise a whole new freaking building.

" I was never comfortable with you all out in the woods in a tiny house But this building has all of the state of the art security. The finest training facilities money can buy, A gravity room so Vincent. and Vella can train with their father.. since that's the only way I can get him to spend quality time with his children... and a basement where we moved all of Cassandra's stuff to get her out of that dirty little cave We don't want her picking up anymore of Bruce Wayne's bad habits than she already has."

The whole time she kept glaring at Todd. She gave us a tour , And Asked justice if she was going to stay on the team.

" No grandma I have to go back , and stop the Corru but it was nice to see everyone again, good to see dad almost acting normal. Tell everyone bye for me."

Damn we could have used Justice's magic abilities. Oh well I called Laura Kinney, Or X-23 and got her to take a spot on the team. She wasn't to happy about it though.

" Look Bub, this is only a temporary thing I'm not going to be on three or four different teams like Logan is got it? And you owe me.

" Um what do you mean?" I ask gulping.

She looks me up, and down and licks her lips " We can can come to some arrangement darling."

Okay now that that's done I still need to get some more members. Unless you're the Fantastic Four Four isn't going to cut it, especially when the only power one of us has is the ability to hold a gun.

So that means one thing, sigh... open tryouts. So I had to sit through hours of moron's who think because they can put on a pair of tights they can be a superhero. Well in the case of Ugly Naked Boy I wish he did put on tights.

So we get guys like barber boy who has like shaving cream vision, and scissor hands, Sweet 16 who's basically useless except she has pheromone powers to get males to fall for her.

Lucky for me I was in my armor, or I'd be putty in her hands like the idiot Jason Todd.The girls took an instant dislike to her, Which isn't surprising so though her talent maybe possibly useful she'd either be blasted, beaten up by green plasma thingies or clawed to death. There were others that were so pathetic like Spank Boy.

His thing was he ran around with with some guy called the Spanker, and would well spank criminals. No, no way.

Finally after hours of the weirdest people you'd ever hope to see finally one guy seemed worth it. Wonder Boy.

He basically looks like a teenage version of Wonder Man. he also seems to have similar powers. Too bad my armor analysis shows his strength is kind of weak compared to Vincent's, Even potently Vincent as a grown man will be still be stronger than this guy as an adult.

But there's no way he'll rejoin without Cass here. And Slobo well I can't find him, So Wonder Boy Is all I got and that's can be a bit annoying since Vella keeps singing. " Wonder Boy what is the secret of your power?"

And our first meeting was well controlled chaos. Without the control. Jason was stupid enough to hit on Laura." Your girlfriend is right flaming there! That and there's no way if I bat boy... well it wouldn't be you or the younger let's say that..."

Nightwing gets all the girls... " Jason mutters.

" Not me Vella smiles. " And it's no wonder Mom doesn't like you... But it could be worse, dad could not like you.let me tell you this story Bra told me about these boys that hit on her once when Daddy was there."



He shuts up after that.Then Vell throws a Playgirl on the table" Look what I found In Spoiler's old room. She's been leering at my older brother."

Laura Picks it and looks through it" Woah! If Vincent is anything like this Cass is a lucky woman."

Vella gets a weird Smirk on her face. " look at page 33."



Laura does and her eyes go wide and she cuts up the magazine " That's my father you sicko why'd ya want me to see that?"

" Made you stop looking at my brother didn't it? You know Mr. Logan for such a short guy has a big..."

" Please stop that!" I yell. " I don't care about Wolverine's anything! Now here's the plan Cass let the Vampire problem in West City go way to far. We're going to get rid of them."

" That's the whole plan? Good going fearless leader." Todd snipes.

" Better than Cain Could do." I Taunt.

" Right. So all that time our old man the Bat spent with her to train her for leadership in case somthing happened to him was for nothing huh? Kind of jealous actually guess he doesn't trust me all that much."

I shrug. " I wonder why? Any way they're vampires we all have powers this should be easy "

" Shouldn't we um train together first?" Vella asks.

" This is our training a milk run to start it off. Okay team let's go."

Weird thing was Wonder boy just kept staring at Laura strange, but oh well off to smah some blood suckers.
