She's at the head of the table this time. No Luthor, unless he decides to crawl out of the woodwork and show up for their meeting.

Considering that he hasn't shown up for ANYTHING, Grace isn't holding her breath.

And the boys had better show up this time.

They had been deposited in front of the Luthor building at the base of the stairs leading to the front doors into the lobby, by Diana's request.

She intends to make something of an entrance. Enough of one to hopefully draw out these guards of Luthor's.

The invitations have gone out to the proper sources - anyone who's anyone in the Arkham Alumni, plus a few of the more mundane but reasonably reliable 'sane' Gotham villains might expect an invitation. Anyone with that certain sense of flashy panache that distinguishes them from the common thug.

It's a night of celebration - Dr. Crane and Mr. Nygma are celebrating their turn for legitimacy - and a night for renewing old acquaintances. The Riddler is particularly curious to sound out support for his notion to bring the weight of the colorful half of Gotham's underworld to bear on Black Mask.

The Iceberg Lounge has been closed off for the private, invitation-only party, and the Riddler has provided video footage of his ambush for Batman under the Big Top. There's a buffet, and a few tables of poker games going on.

After leaving the LexCorp building with Grace, and agreeing to meet up with the other members of Infinity Inc at the designated area of downtown, Kara decided that she'd have another quick fly around, to see if she recognised any familiar structures. It was strange. Metropolis was clearly changed, and she was trying to work out in what way when she realised that a lot of the things were just modifications on old designs. The cars were quicker and quieter, the building interiors plusher and the computers more advanced. Even the little things like the suits men and women were wearing; the collars were smaller, the trousers tighter, shoulderpads practically non-existant. All fascinating, in their own way. What could cause such tiny changes in this world?

Flying to downtown as agreed, she got to work almost immediately. The being known as Chemo wasn't completely foreign to her; she remembered one from her world, which was equally as destructive. She surveyed the devastation it had caused, and with a resolute look, began to use both her superspeed, strength, and invulnerability to clear away a lot of the toxic soup that remained in the area. She shored up buildings, and in the blink of an eye was disintegrating ruined furniture and half-melted cars with her heat vision. All thisdetritus was no use to anyone who might want to live here once the cleaning had been completed.

Some of the toxic waste made even her feel ill. As Infinity Inc hadn't shown up yet, she would let them deal with that, providing they had the equipment to do so. But within half an hour, a great deal of the outward damage in downtown was already healed. As Infinity Inc started to roll in, Supergirl flew down to the middle of the road to greet them with a smile. "I've done some of the work, but this'll need to be a team effort. I should probably introduce myself, as the only one I've met is Grace. My name is Supergirl, and I'm really hoping that together we can clean up the destruction that seems to have hit Metropolis."

As the satellite appears in the strange dimension, Bart is at the ready - his team's job is to keep the mind-controlled Legion members busy until they can be freed. That means he'll have to take on XS..

"Okay, let's try not to hurt any of them too badly, since they could be a lot of help later on. Let's go!"

He taps the control for the satellite's teleportation system, to beam his team down in the vicinity where the Legionnaires are massed - then zips back to the teleporter pad as the beam energizes.

His thoughts are jumbled - the tangle of streets and the urban decay seem at once familiar and forbidding. The tall skyscrapers of the downtown area remind him of home, but he also feels the need to stay out of sight - until he can sort out the conflicting impulses in his mind.

Val's path has led him to Suicide Slum - no better place to hide in Metropolis. Even though his black and orange outfit is unusual, the people here seem more content to mind their own business - and so he has sought refuge in an alley, sitting on the ground next to a dumpster as he tries to focus.

The doors are flung wide open and all of the lights are on.

A familiar form leans up against the bar, a pint glass held loosely in one hand.

Chaney's is open for business for two special reasons tonight -- firstly, to collect funds for rebuilding Metropolis.

But also to give the heroes a chance to relax and unwind, before what's bound to be a tough fight.

And Grace Choi is back to bartend.

"Cash only tonight, ladies and gentlemen. Everything goes to get our town back up and running. So drink up!"

Metropolis has always had its share of heroes. From Superman to the Newsboy Legion, the Guardian, the city could consider itself well-protected.

As of recently, more were even added to the melting pot. Infinity Incorporated, Lexcorp's publicly sponsored entity have taken up residence in the city. Between handling operations that may take them from city limits, the team members are also expected to handle minor problems internally.

This, would be one of them.

"Let me get this straight. You can control emotions using your lights. Aaaand, when you flash a certain one, you can cause fear, or anger, or sadness."

The spoken to subject just nods.

"So, instead of, I don't know, using it to help people...you wanted to rob a food court. I say again. A.FOOD.COURT."

Another nod. This one more nervous.

The speaker, Infinity Inc's Miracleman regards this for a few moments, keeping the captured Doctor Spectro at arm's length and high above the Siegel Centre mall. Miracleman has his hands around the back of Spectro's neck, and starts to do some calculations. "You know...I'm not going to drop you. I just wanted to get us up here to get some thinking time, and wonder about how long you'd be going away for IF you pulled it off."

Spectro grabs hold of his arm, trying to do something, anything to keep from going airborne to the crowded streets below.

"Okay, Doc...lets get you out of here. I don't even feel like doing the paperwork to have you booked. So if you promise that you'll stop trying to steal things, and primarily never wear that costume again...you can get home in time to watch the game. Deal?"

Sleek leather chairs surround a conference table with a surface buffed to gleaming. Windows look out over a spectacular view of Metropolis. It's quiet, with barely even the hum of air conditioning stirring the calm.

Until the doors are flung open, followed by Grace Choi striding confidently in. She swings one of the chairs around and sits down, propping booted feet on the tabletop.

"Wonder if the big guy'll show up in person this time."

Killing two birds with one stone. There was little that Noah admired more than efficiency. Luthor had wanted a test for his little group of upstarts, and if Noah could gather a little information on this 'Miracleman' in the meantime - so much the better.

A custom-designed computer sits at his fingertips - a remote control system attached to one of the deadliest weapons in the world.

"Dr. Phosphorus, Faust is ready to transport you and your smokescreen. The Metropolis Marvel is dealing with a major volcanic eruption in the Pacific Rim. Are you ready to break the bank?"

A 9:00 AM start time opened the day for Lexcorp's summit meeting. Its Chairman, Lex Luthor himself addressed the media, and the shareholders with its 2008-09 directive.

"And so, ladies and gentlemen, Lexcorp associates, and distinguished guests It is with extreme pleasure, and pride, that I give to you the 2008-09 company focus. "Infinite Initiative".

"What Lexcorp strives for, above all is the growth, and the acceleration of the human race. As a people, we have seen the future. Metropolis itself is a living testament to what things are to come. This city, amazes me. Its people amaze me. And to think that I'm a part of its golden age humbles me. I am proud to be a citizen once again.

And with that, I offer my gift...to the future, and the security of not only Metropolis, but this world in itself. )
