Captain Justice Chronicles

Issue 3: Chapter 1

Shock To The System: Round 1.

Justice Lad battles an electrifying super-villain.

A few days had gone by since the battle with the giant robot and Freedom Eagle had assured him that the pilot would be locked up in the PIN for the rest of his life. All in all things had been peaceful in the city. He was wearing a nice new suit and relaxing in the sky. He noticed a guy selling ice cream to children on the street. Smiling, he flew down and walked up to the man and offered him a couple hundred dollars. "Hello. My name is Justice Lad. I'd like to buy everyone ice cream."
"Okay!" The man said and took the money and handed out ice cream to everyone who wanted some. "Ummm, how much change?"
"Keep it." Justice lad said and walked off to eat his ice cream, waving goodbye to the other children.
"Thank you!" P.W. called after him. He smiled and nodded. "You're welcome!"
After sitting on a bench to eat the ice cream cone, he called his parents, taking a small phone out of his belt. "Hi Mother! Hello Father! I'm at the park! I just bought some people ice cream. It was really good, how are you doing?"
"Very well dear." Seraphina replied as she relaxed at the pool.
"Great! When do you want me home?"
"6:00 PM dear. We have a dinner party tonight."
"Yes mother dear!"
There was an explosion. "Gotta go now mother, some super villain has shown up again. I'll call when I'm done."
"Of course, be safe dear."
"Always am!" He hung up and flew to the sound of the explosion.

A group of masked criminals in body armor were loading stolen goods out of the museum and into a truck. "That's it! We got what we came for! Move it!" Their leader said, a tall figure about 6'4 and wearing blue motorcycle gear with a blue helmet. Justice Lad flew down on top of the truck. "Hi bad guys!"
"Damn, it's him! You guys get the goods out of here, I'll handle him."
"You.....do know who I am right?"
"I know and I'm going to be the one who takes you down. No stupid kid is beating me!"
Justice Lad jumped off the truck. "Alright, let's see what you got bad guy."
The others finished loading up and drove off. Justice Lad wasn't worried, he could catch it easily. In the meantime, the villain in front of him was surrounded by electricity. It was sparking off of the villain who raised a hand and fired off a blast of electricity at him. Justice Lad raised his hand up and the bolt struck it but there was no damage. Justice Lad was actually holding the bolt of electricity in his hand. "Why you...try this on for size!" The villain said and blasted him with the other hand. Justice Lad stopped it again. "This all you got? That robot I fought before had way more juice then this." He threw the blasts aside and smiled.
"Stupid kid. Don't think I'm beaten yet!" The villain charged up electricity and then let fly a powerful double handed blast, hitting his chest. Justice Lad walked into the attack, one step at a time as the villain backed up and then Justice Lad blitzed forward and punched the villain into a wall, breaking the helmet and revealing that the villain had been a woman.
"Oh....wow....oops...oh man, Father was always telling me not to hit a woman and now this happens." Justice Lad looked at the unconscious woman. "Well....she was trying to electrocute me." He reasoned and shrugged and then flew after the truck, traveling down the road. It had traveled several blocks by that time and was going over a hundred miles per hour. However, Justice Lad was soon able to catch up with it and got in front of the truck, letting it slam full force into him. Wrecking the front of the truck but he was unharmed. Justice Lad soon took out the goons and put them back in the truck which he carried over to the museum and set it down.
"Wow! Thanks kiddo!"
"Not a problem Officer, just doing my job. Say, do you know who that electric woman was?"
"Electric woman?"
"You know, the woman in motorcycle gear. She was right there."
"Sorry kid, when we got here all we found was a broken helmet, no signs of any woman."
"What? That's weird. Oh well, I'm sure she won't be a problem." Justice Lad waved goodbye and flew away.

"Ow! Owwww...damn...dammit...that damn kid...my whole body hurts..what the hell is that kid made out of?" The electric woman sat down against the brick wall in the alley. "One thing's for sure, I can't beat that kid, not like this. I'm gonna need something more..." She thought about it before smiling and looking up at the sky. "Two things: A lightning storm...and the city's power grid." She licked her lips. "Yummy." The woman stood up and walked away.
