(POV GENERAL)
3 minutes before the ice dome fell.
Kid Flash past Ibis after punching following Operation: NightRaid. Which was simply a distraction tactic focused on Robin and Kid Flash. Where Robin clouds the enemies vision while Kid Flash deals the blow that helps them either escape combat or for a simple surprise attack.
Once the blow was delivered Kid Flash ran past the Ice Dome thinking of it as a giant sized igloo. "Dang! Wouldn't want to see her snow angels!" After an attempt at dry humor Kid Flash continued to run towards Blitzwolfer where soon both parties locked eyes.
But to Kid Flash's disbelief Blitzwolfer simply locked eyes as he increased speed getting closer in hopes to get past him and grab the flag pole declaring victory.
At the thought a sudden vision came to Kid Flash's mind of him standing on Blitzwolfer with a golden medal and trophy in hand screaming in cheers of victory. "Aw you cutie." From the side M'gan stood beside Wally kissing him on the cheek saying seductively in his ear "I like winners."
Kid was taken aback by his imagination not knowing he was still running into Blitzwolfer who tilted his head in confusion. Blitzwolfer then raised his arm horizontally and watched as Kid Flash ran into it falling to the ground as the pain itself brought him back to reality.
Kid Flash on the ground felt a mouthful of steel instead of dirt as his jaw was in the most pain as his face was the target of the lariat that Blitzwolfer used causing a cartoonish reaction of Kid Flash flipping in the air only to fall to the ground.
After getting up Blitzwolfer wasted no time grabbing Kid's leg, tossing him again in the air, opening his mouth and firing a sonic blast throwing Kid further away. While flying through the air Kid Flash screamed "Not again!"
While in flight Kid thought at super speed thinking of a way to slow his fall and tried something peculiar. Kid, using his super speed, moved his hands in a circular motion creating something similar to Red Tornado's lowering showcased earlier except this whirlwind was the color of yellow from the image of his suit.
Blitzwolfer allowed Kid to land and awaited another attempt at an attack; however the sounds of crashing took both their attention watching the ice dome collapse in on itself with Artemis, Miss Martian, Superboy, and Robin. But at the sight of the five Blitzwolfer came to a realization asking out loud "Where's Caldur?"
Blitzwolfer after asking himself the question instantly looked to the pole seeing the Atlantean surprised by his stealth but fired his sonic blast by opening his mouth firing at the Atlantean. Once fired the man in question heard the attack but was too slow to doge as he was knocked away from the flagpole.
Once Caldur was away Blitzwolfer closed his snout and walked towards Caldur asking as he focused on both sides of opponents soon to come at him. "Good job getting here. How'd you do it?"
Caldur looked at Blitzwolfer and back at the team waiting for them to come by distraction was the most strategic so Caldur answered Blitzwolfer's inquiry. By walking towards the opponent as well.
"By utilizing each other. We used M'gann and Superboy as a distraction while Robin, Artemis, and Kid. Could get past Ibis while I snuck around passing you all through the chaos of the smoke."
Blitzwolfer, impressed, took a pensive look placing his right paw to his snout and then coyly barked. "But you forgot something." Caldur confused and quirked his brows and Blitzwolfer went to all fours for a brief second utilizing his tail to low sweep backwards tripping Kid Flash. Causing another cartoonish downfall as Blitzwolfer claimed "I trained you to work together."
After delivering the low sweep Blizwolfer jumped into the air dodging Superboys landing. While in the air Blitzwolfer fired his sonic blast shot to his back destroying several projectiles from both Robin and Artemis.
Once landed Caldur had used his Atlantean weapons to create two swords made of water causing his tattoos to glow ocean blue. Attacking Bliztwolfer who knew of his plan and countered the water blades with his claws. Sensing danger in the process of this Blitwolfer opened his snout giving Caldur a good look at his mouth shooting another sonic blast however the blast wasn't aimed at Caldur it was aimed skyward decommissioning the disguised Miss Martian who turned invisible.
Once heard M'gann covered her ears as she attempted to close her ears permanently again after just returning her ear canals to her. For the fight again but was stopped as Blitzwolfer grabbed her now seeable leg slamming her into Caldur who caught her.
Once caught Caldur was pushed back a couple of feet with M'gann in his arms who once caught apologized to where Caldur's response "Think nothing of it." Caldur after placing M'gann down rejoined the fight seeing Blitwolfer take a four versus one with Kid Flash, Superboy, Artemis, and Robin.
Red Tornado watching the current fight was deciding the points that needed distribution and was paid an unlikely visit. "Hello Miss Lance. Batman." Both figures made themselves known Dianah walked closer to Red Tornado to ask what was happening with Batman to answer in his monotone "Training designed by your protege."
Dianah looked at Batman with an annoyed expression asking him in the process "Speaking of which, why didn't you claim him as your own and make him my Protege?" Batman not looking at Dianah and instead at the center monitor which showed the battle. "It was a needed factor."
Batman didn't explain why that particular factor was needed and ignored Dianah's stare watching the progress of the Leagues Proteges. Batman then looked to the scoreboard seeing the names of the highest scorers. Josh/Blitzwolfer 35 points, Artemis/Robin 27, Miss Martian 26, Ice/Ibis 25, Superboy/Kid Flash 15.
Seeing the point value increase as the fight went on Batman showed no sign of emotion, be it good or bad. Seeing was all Batman intended for today and that was all. However seeing his protege and son at second place irked him slightly as he both wasn't first or tied, But he'd never admit such things.
Batman, Red Tornado, and Dianah watched the fight intensity as everyone attacked Blitzwolfer gaining and losing points causing some to both rise and fall on the scoreboard. Blitzwolfer in an attempt to take all out grabbed Robin by his leg similar as he did to Miss Martian tossing him around as a weapon knocking away everyone throwing him away in the process.
Once thrown, Blitzwolfer was head to head with his team as a proud smile shot across his alien face. Until a foghorn echoed around the field signifying the winners of the match. Everyone paused awaiting the ref's declaration. Where each second felt like an eternity until Red Tornado's robotic tone echoed on the speaker "The winner is the blue team."
"What?!"
"But, we all got here?"
The first to complain was Superboy followed by Wally who was mainly confused. Caldur looked confused but it didn't take long for him to understand where they failed. "We left it unprotected." Caldur voiced the cause, making everyone on the Team turn around seeing both Ibis and Ice at the flagpole.
Blitzwolfer began to speak but was cut off by his transformation timer turning him back to Josh who congratulated the team, but added his own pointers to the Team mainly on defending their flagpole. Josh wanted to discuss more but Batman cut out through the intercom system within Mount Justice.
"Everyone report to the briefing room on your next assignment."

Star City
Within the shining city of Star City most would find the city blinding and they'd be right as through this blinding light there laid a silent darkness ever growing. And the source was located at the burrowed edges of the city.
The building in question was a disguised forgotten pizza parlor. Where on the glass had a pizza chef winking at the customer and holding one hand up letting his middle finger touch his thumb. The title of the place is Papa's Pazoni written in red bubble font on the window.
Inside the building was mainly a kitchen with a pizza oven and a sleeping bag on the ground. While on the kitchen counter had several flasks and beakers with an unknown chemical in each container.
The owner or more correctly squatter inside was lying on the cold ground laying still until the sounds of the door rang with a soft bell chime alerting the squatter to hide. Which he did by taking cover behind the counter hearing the sounds of high heels hitting the concrete floor. The squatter began to sweat from fear only for the fear to become real as he heard his pursuers' voice sound like a sleeping tiger stalking its prey.
"For a scientist you aren't too smart are you?"
The now identified scientist crawled away "W-what do you want?" In a tone seething with fear. Lady Shiva looked at the man known as Emil Dorian looking at his dirty clothes, the gruffness of not shaving, and his messy ginger hair. As she took his appearance Shiva placed the item The Brain handed her to give him. Placing it on the counter saying in the process.
"I was told you were in Central City not Star City which wasn't fun finding you. As I am a busy woman after all. But now that I'm done I leave you with your commission."
And just like she promised Lady Shiva left Emil to the quiet he had grown to enjoy inside his pizza parlor. Once Shiva left and the door rang signaling her exit. Emil stood up looking at his package being a black box with a detachable latch. Emil nervously opened the box not knowing what could be inside, finding a syringe where inside had a green like liquid labeled "TITANO."
