Alaska I

(Watch Tower)

Most league members were present and were now attending a meeting. Batman typed into the keyboard and brought up files. "This is the Division, a group which came out from its hiding and now active throughout major cities in the U.S. It operates similarly to national intelligent agencies around the globe."

"Do we know anything about this group?" Flash inquired.

"Their agents are classified into levels. This means they do not know agents above their levels and have never met them. They only receive orders from an unknown source that they verify using a code from both sides." Batman shared more files to everyone in the room.

"This is James Black, a level 3 field agent working for the Division. He was given 20 trained men and equipment for each to assist them in capturing Brick. Ten personnel give the latest exoskeleton suits, all twenty given light customized modern firearms and James himself was given a cube made from lead." Batman looked right at Superman on his right.

Superman frowned at that. 'They know I can't see through lead.'

"This small cube has a space of 3 cubic meters and was used in abducting the Super villain Brick."

Many leaguers had a questioning look on their faces. "The Division made this tool and has been using it in transportation of their equipment and detained individuals. Because of this, they have been able to avoid every keen eye out there." 

Many heroes present thought having that tool would be useful in carrying any excess and necessary equipment they had. They just wondered why the one who ran the Division couldn't sell it and make money.

Batman brought up several villains who have been quiet lately. "These villains have disappeared, either killed or abducted. The suspects are the Division. This is seen from their last operation where we stopped them from taking Brick. Our satellites have captured some activity in Alaska. This could be one black site of the division, where they could be holding these supervillains."

"This is completely wrong. We should stop them and hand them over to the authorities. If this was a government agency and followed laws which applied to captured criminals, then everything would be good." Superman said his opinion in the Division's matter.

"Sooo another mission… I've a lot going on, but I can push them aside for catching bad guys." Flash was already on board with Superman.

"No. The league has other pressing matters to focus on. I'll issue this mission to our covert team." Batman instructed. 

"Don't you think this Division should be a league priority. I don't think the Team is ready for them."

"I second Arrow's opinion in this. If what you encountered was a level 3 agent, what if they find a higher-level agent." Superman spoke. 

"That's why they'll be going covertly. Gathering information will be their main and only assignment." Batman adjourned the League meeting.

New York: The Continental

'It's October already… this year has gone by quick. We already got our hands on Dr. Roquette's research on nanotechnology. I'll be heading to our secret research base in Alaska. Tay and Dan will stay back. Tay in Gotham to ensure our civilian identities are clean and answer any questions to the people who matter. I'll have Dan racks all our property and keep tabs on anyone trying to get their hands on our tech.' I was thinking steps ahead to ensure nobody knew any of us. I drew circles with my fork on the sauce on my plate. I was currently having brunch enjoying the city view of New York. I looked at my watch and it was time I headed to my next destination. the planned route was to Germany's Continental with Brian, Joe and Nat then teleport from there to Alaska's Division headquarters. I was going to make people believe I was in German going for my holidays early.

I took out my phone and texted them. We were going to meet at NY international airport. Thirty minutes later we were in the air headed for Berlin. 'I had wondered why I was German in this life' I looked out the window and enjoyed the sea. I was interrupted when Nat gave me a glass of whiskey. Today she wore a nice fitting brown suit. Yes, it was one of our own made from Kevlar fibers. Nat didn't have a permanent job like the rest. She tried to be my secretary, but it wasn't meant for her. She ended up being my head of security. It really worked since most of the time she had a cold expression, and when she talked, it was the heavy Russian accent. "So boss, what are you going to do about the energy thing?"

"Simple. We create our own. I have many theories to try." 'In my past life there were graphene batteries, or an arc reactor from Tony Stark.' I paused in thought. "Or I can just expose myself in nuclear power plants then adapt and evolve." Nat didn't even look surprised. She was already used to me doing dangerous things in the name of evolution.

"Good thing Theo. I'm almost done creating the teleportation gates. With this we can be anywhere anytime." Joe said. The reason we were traveling with Joe was because he hadn't finished integrating his teleportation into technology. Brian raised his whiskey cup for Joe, "Now we have our own 'Boom tubes'." I was amused by that. I raised my cup to cheers theirs. I opened my tab and opened a file. I was working on a weapon. It was like the ten rings cause, why not? The rings were an alloy of tungsten and steel. This two made them electromagnetic. It looked like vambraces that were black and silver when attached and the electromagnetic stretch was ten metres. I was my first prototype so I would not have been my best, but I was going to make better weapons in future. I practised martial arts using weighted rings to gain the experience to wear my ten rings. They weighed ten kgs each. I was strong, I could lift a small car when I exerted every ounce on my body.

In Alaska deep underground, four people appeared out of nowhere in an empty room. We all wore mask. It was like a black balaclava without any openings. Below was a light black armour. I wore the rings compressed on my forearms and carried a light submachine for long range. The rest wore their suits. We headed to the research halls. We passed through the detention where you could see several people behind force-fielded cages. I had plans with them like recreating their powers or maybe cloning them because our agents are understaffed. But these plans were at the back of my mind, I don't think they would be seen soon. 

I neared one of our scientists and he handed me his tablet. This was the nanotechnology experiments. He began explaining how our next combat suits would be nanotech. He had an interesting input. He suggested having the suit compressed in our everyday wear like a tie or watch for example then grows on your skin when prompted to. "As long as it works doc." I told him in an altered voice. We were interrupted when the intruder alarms went off.

"Lock down this facility. Now!" I looked over to Nat. we all got busy. The scientists followed protocol and retreated to safety. Now every security was alert. The surveillance team uploaded the intruders caught on video to our contact lenses. 'Young Justice!?'
