After showing Robbie, now the champion of the wizard Shazam, around the new HQ, the original Ditto and company walked back towards the group centered mainly in the lounge area and kitchen. Everyone was surprised when Luke, their friend and current Plastic Man, walked in alive and well. The duplicate Ditto hanging out with Shock looked up at the original, he knew that Luke didn't die after the battle with Heartbreaker. He just needed to be [i]hidden[/i] for awhile. Almost as if everyone in the team had a 'secret origin pt. II' or something. 

"Glad you're not a zombie, Plas!" Ditto came back into the room absorbing his duplicate with Shock and leaving her a bit annoyed. 

That's when one of the new recruits caught up to Kilian...

[i] "Yo Bos... El Capitano!"[/i] Cal had called out.

What the new recruit went on to say and later determine, is that law enforcement in major cities like Metropolis, Star City, New York City, Gateway, Central City, LA, and others were all essentially cyborgs and that the President herself may also be an android. Black Canary had left on League business hours earlier or the League would have been alerted then and there. Everyone within ear shot could hear what was being discussed between Ditto, Thrillseeker, and the current Capt. Marvel. 

"Somebody, anybody, try to get in touch with your League sponsors. We have to alert the League about this invasion or whatever it is this 'President Kendall' has in store for the United States..." Ditto went on to say before checking out what was on all of the news channels on the other tv's in the lounge and kitchen.

"I think they already know..." Shock commented in awe as each news station seemed to be reporting from a different city.

Superman was under attack in Metropolis, a retired Hawkman was cornered in an upper level of the Midway City Museum, Wonder Woman was defending herself in Gateway, it went on and on in at least a dozen cities or so. But that wasn't all. Inmates were being executed in cold blood in Gotham's Arkham Asylum, the Slabside Penitentiary just outside of New Jersey, Iron Heights outside of Central City, again, the list went on and on. The robot in disguise as the President is waging war on both hero and criminal metahumans.
