DC Universe- 2100

"It plays Galaga really well, too.", Derek says as he walks up to the platform with monitors.

Angelica pulls up a window with Galaga, showing her name filling up the high score listing. "It's taking a while," she says, swiveling around in the chair. "Sup?"

Derek narrows his eyes as he can't see his own high score on the listings. "I need a second opinion on some video I've pieced together. Its from a recent encounter with the leader of Squire, Gallant and the other. Super-Girl lost her powers to some sort of beam fueled by tampered red kryptonite."

"Oh, sure, what's the problem?"

"I have been attempting to analyze Sovereign's movements and tactics. There are certain moments where he appears to be simply teleporting yet when he reappears again during combat his body turns in a slight way as if he's readjusting from a sudden movement, like he's using superspeed. I wonder if he's using a combination of both.", Derek says and plays through the footage. "I guess I'm trying to rule out that he's even faster than the Flash." He seemed unusually nervous, if slightly.

"I'll run it and see what I can find out. You okay?" Angelica asks.

"Yeah. I'm fine. Considering the situation.", Derek says and takes a deep breath, taking a short glance to his left before performing a double take at the sight he was met with. 12 stood a few feet away from them with a newly designed yellow lightning bolt on his torso, as well as a smooth blue cape hanging from his shoulders and down his back, connected across his chest with a golden chain link.

"Good evening.".

"What the... who...".

"Guess, Derek," Angelica says. "Just...take a wild guess, who."

Lorie enters the cave and looks around. "Hey, we're all in the same place for once," she jokes before looking between them. "...What?"

Derek gives Lorelei a blank stare and then looks up at 12 who tilts his head slightly before looking down at Lorie. "I see you had time to brush 12 up."

"I am no longer referred to as '12'.", the drone exclaims as enthusiastically a monotone mechanized humanoid can sound. "I am...".

Derek arches an eyebrow. "Yes...?"

Angelica sits back in her seat. "You are...?"

"I am...", the drone pauses and leans down to have Lorie whisper the answer to him. He straightens back up again and places his fist on his chest. "I am, Red Tornado!"

"...Cute.".

"Interesting," Angelica says.

"Well, you did kinda model him after the old one, right?" Lorie says. "Fits."

"I suppose you are right.", Derek gives in and sits down on one of the chairs, crossing his arms over the back. "He does look the part, so... alright. Red Tornado."

"All right, so, scraping together the footage of Sovereign," Angelica says. "I'll get to it as soon as this update finishes."

"I did not. This is going to be a little harder."

"Yeah, we're kinda in Germany." Nightwing said with a half chuckle.

"Well that is a bit of a problem" Talon said seeing Servo getting annoyed that they were carrying on a conversation while avoiding his attacks.

Nightwing nodded back flipping away from Servo. "Yeah, Black Forest to be exact." He said throwing a few wing dings at Servo. "Handle the C4 and I'll keep him busy."

"Right, have fun" Talon said leaving Nightwing to deal with Servo

"Heh, yeah." Nightwing said avoiding a strike that put a hole through the wall.

Talon ran into some of Servo's men while he worked on setting his explosives.

Nightwing was doing his damnedest to avoid Servo's attacks, dodging and rolling out the way.

Servo's men opened fire at Talon.

Talon took cover from the fire looking for an exit.

"Flank him!"

Several mercenaries went around to flank Talon

"Thanks, I appreciate it. Now I'm gonna have to look after the business. I'll be back later."
