Okay, post is up. The Metallo-Bot's energy bolts give off some Kryptonite radiation, and the scorpion monsters are fairly strong with paralyzing venom in their stingers. Feel free to use that info to write out your battle scenes.

“Hard to say, but best to be prepared regardless,” Batman replied to Ray’s question. He then turned to address the others as they inquired as well. “The security personnel here will keep a close eye on the cameras and alert you on your ear pieces if they see anything suspicious. I’ll leave it up to you to decide who to patrol with, but…”
“Batman?” Nightwing asked, puzzled that his mentor suddenly stopped talking, seemingly listening to something on his earpiece.
“The situation has just changed,” he finally spoke. “There is a massive prison break at Belle Reve that requires the response of the full Justice League. It is no coincidence that this is happening right now.”
“Wait, what?” Kid Flash’s eyes went wide as he blurted out.
“So you think their intent is to draw the League away from the Hall?” Dick inquired, following his mentor’s line of thinking.
“Yes,” the caped crusader confirmed. “This is either a trap or a distraction, but we must respond regardless. Which means the safety of everyone in the Hall will fall to you all. There very well may be a separate attack here while we’re dealing with the prison break there, so do not let your guard down until we have returned. Nightwing, you will be the leader of Junior Squad while we’re gone.”
“I understand,” the teen nodded.
“We will try to resolve this as quickly as possible,” Batman insisted.
Superman made a statement from the stage explaining the situation, and they brought some of the musical talent out to keep the crowd entertained while the League was gone. Soon the older heroes were assembled, gave reassurances to their respective sidekicks, and then departed via their various high-speed transportation methods for the swamps of Louisiana, where Belle Reve was located.
“Well, I suppose this is our first real test as an independent team,” Nightwing said to the other young heroes as they stood in the lobby of the Hall, watching their mentors leave. “I have faith that we will all rise to the task.”
For about thirty minutes, nothing extraordinary happened, and Junior Squad just casually walked back and forth between the lobby, the ballroom, and the security room. But then, they heard a guard on their earpieces.
“Attention Junior Squad, suspicious vehicle entering the parking lot. A black van with tinted windows.”
“Roger that,” Nightwing immediately responded. “Investigating now.”
He motioned for the other team members to assemble and they walked up to the glass doors leading out of the lobby as the van came to a stop just outside. “Be on your guard.”
Suddenly, the door on the side of the van slid open and a tall Metallo-Bot stepped out, a large chunk of Kryptonite in his chest, glowing green. He extended an arm, which was mounted with two barrels, and began unleashing rapid-fire green energy bolts that shattered the glass and hit Scarlet Beacon in the chest, sending him flying back and sliding along the floor. The others threw arms up to shield themselves from the glass shards.
“Ah!” Conner yelped out at the attack, several scorch marks on his suit. The robot then began firing at the other Kryptionians.
“I got him!” Kid Flash sped off in a flash of yellow lightning towards the metal enemy, but then slid to a stop as he was confronted by Reverse-Flash. “Thawne! I’m surprised you’re here instead of facing the Flash!”
“We flipped a coin. Zoom won,” he replied, shrugging. He then grinned, eyes glowing red, and charged at Wally.
A third figure exited the van, holding a grimoire of some kind. Nightwing didn’t recognize him, but gasped as the man began chanting in Latin and called upon a magical blue light. The book floated up from his grasp and at least a dozen scorpion monsters began materializing in little flashes. They roared and charged into the Hall of Justice.
“Don’t let them get to the crowd!” Nightwing called out, slipping out his batons and gripping them tightly. “We must halt their advance here in the lobby!”

Was going to try and work on stuff if it was slow today at work, but it got super busy. I'm off tomorrow though so I'll be able to focus on RP stuff :).
Also, if anyone wants me to make them a name banner similar to mine, just let me know XD. I'm thinking of using our banners and char pics to make a custom intro for us using the Teen Titans theme XD.
Awesome! Feel free to post them in the CS tab XD.
If everyone is ready to move the story towards some combat, then I'll write a longer post having the JL go to deal with the prison break at Belle Reve and then end my post with the sidekicks having to fight off some villains attacking the Hall. Since this will be the first major fight scene for this RP, I'm going to have one of the villains summon a bunch of identical monsters so that everyone can have the freedom to write out their battle scenes how they want without worrying about two characters going after the same villain at the same time and the posts conflicting with each other.
So I think we're just waiting on Crimson and Damo to post. Do you guys want me to leave it open for more back and forth or should I start the action in my next post?
I did put a little more work into Kid Flash's banner though. That one has a top layer with the words unedited and then a bottom layer with a wind effect to create the notion of movement.
Might sound silly, but where are you all getting thiese awesome looking banners? Hoping to get a concept or two up today.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I make mine in GIMP. I installed a bunch of custom fonts, typed out the names, added a drop shadow effect, and that's about it LOL. I don't remember the names of all the fonts, but Nightwing's name banner uses the Cyberpunk 2077 title font XD.
